Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

Chapter 147 There are no innocents here.

"Your Majesty the King, what do you think?" Elizabeth looked past Rose and towards King Oriana.

"There are no innocents here!" King Oliana's eyes immediately turned cold after hearing this.

After all, when he was controlled, although he couldn't escape Doam's orders, he was still conscious occasionally.

In addition, the memory during the period of being controlled has not disappeared. He still remembers what these nobles did and said in front of him.

"I obey the king's orders!" After Elizabeth said this, she waved her hand to the nobles present.

After dozens of flashes of blood, the fallen noble was cut into countless pieces.

On the other side, after Li De walked out of the embassy and disappeared into the night, the knights on the outside realized that their bodies had finally regained their mobility.

Without any hesitation, except for a few people who stayed in place and continued to monitor, other personnel rushed out in all directions, and some of them chased in the direction where Li De disappeared.

Another group of people reported what happened in the embassy as quickly as possible. The drastic changes in the embassy spread throughout the entire royal capital in a very short period of time.

No one expected that Princess Rose of Oriana, who suddenly ran away after assassinating her fiancé because she was dissatisfied with the engagement, would suddenly come back with someone to kill her and kill the entire embassy.

After a massacre, there were only three people left in the entire embassy, ​​the king, the princess, and the princess's teacher and bodyguard.

This result shocked many people. You must know that even as a king, you cannot order the execution of a nobleman at will.

Of course, this only refers to general situations. Some special situations, such as murdering the king, are not within this scope.

It's just that the Kingdom of Oriana is the first to do this kind of thing in other royal capitals without any scruples.

Therefore, in the early morning, Rose went to the palace alone to ask for a meeting with Princess Alice. After all, no matter what, the embassy was stained with blood, and the Kingdom of Oriana needed to give an explanation that would be recognized by the outside world.

It's just that this kind of thing is not to the extent that the king has to come forward in person, otherwise the people who go to the palace will not be Rose alone, but Rose, her daughter and Elizabeth.

Arriving at the palace, Rose naturally met Alice smoothly. After all, she was also waiting for her arrival.

After a brief exchange of greetings in the formal conference hall, Rose first expressed her apology. After all, what she did last night had a huge impact on the Martial God Festival.

After all, the Kingdom of Midgar is currently gathering guests from all over the world. As the organizer, the Kingdom of Midgar is very focused on safety.

Therefore, even if it is an internal matter within the Kingdom of Oriana, during this special period, if Rose cannot come up with a reasonable explanation.

This matter will definitely affect the relationship between the Kingdom of Oriana and the Kingdom of Midgar.

"Your Highness Princess Alice, I was too impulsive about what happened last night. I'm really sorry. Please allow me to offer my sincere apology in my own name." Rose said straight to the point.

After hearing these words, Alice immediately understood that Rose wanted to take out the Kingdom of Oriana. After all, personal behavior and kingdom behavior represented completely different meanings.

Of course, as Rose, the first heir of the Kingdom of Oriana, it will definitely affect the reputation of the Kingdom of Oriana, so this can only be regarded as a remedial measure. Whether it has any effect or how much effect it has depends on Midgar. Kingdom attitude.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Rose, we have no intention of interfering with your country's internal problems. However, I think you are also very aware of the impact of the embassy being stained with blood, especially during this critical period when foreign guests gathered in the royal capital.

Therefore, we need a reasonable enough explanation as to what is the reason that forces a princess of the kingdom to act so decisively despite all the consequences. "Alice really wants to find out why Rose went on a killing spree even at the risk of offending the Kingdom of Midgar.

"My father was controlled by Duke Doaim with some secret medicine. Then Duke Doaim wanted to control my father to assassinate His Majesty Klaus at the Valkyrie Festival, with the intention of destroying the alliance between our two countries. .

After confirming this information, in order to save my father, I had no choice but to launch a radical rescue operation. Because the people Duke Doam brought this time were all his people, there were no innocent people. "Rose replied simply.

If it were anyone else, they would be acting more like a noble at this moment, covering up the scandals in their country in various ways.

But if there is not enough reason to convince the Kingdom of Midgar, this matter will definitely not be overturned.

So even if Rose couldn't use normal social language to politely refuse to answer, she could only expand the scope of the matter to Midgar. Only by involving the entire incident in the Kingdom of Midgar could Midgar be considered able to Reasonable grounds for acceptance by the Kingdom.

"Controlled by the secret medicine? Are you going to assassinate my father?" Alice didn't care at all about the rest of Rose's words. She only really cared about these two points, or the first point.

After all, Doaim has been killed and all the corpses in the embassy have been cleaned up, so naturally there is no so-called assassination plan.

"Well, according to my teacher's description, this secret medicine comes from a mysterious ancient organization, and Duke Doem is one of them." Rose knew that Alice knew about the existence of the Diabolos Cult, so she reminded Alice.

Upon hearing this, Alice instinctively thought of the Diabolos Cult.

And thinking that this mysterious cult has recently broken the tacit understanding of various kingdoms, Alice felt the pressure coming.

"Then I wonder how His Majesty King Ronald (there is no name of this extra in the original book, so I made one up now) is doing now?" Alice continued to ask, after all, compared to the pressure, she was more concerned about this.

After all, this secret medicine may be used on the Midgar royal family in the future, so it is necessary to understand it in advance.

"Thanks to the teacher, my father has been cured by the therapist she found with ancient artifacts." Rose replied with a relaxed mood.

"Treatment with ancient artifacts?" Alice was very surprised, because she had never heard of any ancient artifacts that had the effect of healing the body.

Another surprising thing is that this secret medicine actually requires a special ancient artifact to treat it. Isn't this a disguised way of saying that other treatment methods are likely to be ineffective?

"Princess Rose, is this the only way to unlock the control of the secret medicine?" Alice asked hurriedly, after all, this is crucial.

"Princess Alice, unfortunately, at least I don't know any other way, because my teacher told me that the damage to people caused by this secret medicine is irreversible, and the only known treatment method is the ancient artifact I mentioned before.

Of course, Your Highness doesn't have to worry, this secret medicine needs to be taken for a long time to achieve the control effect. My father actually noticed it a long time ago, but unfortunately, Duke Doem's infiltration of the palace exceeded my father's imagination." Rose didn't mention her mother, after all, this is a family scandal that cannot be made public.     "This is really terrible!" When Alice said this, she was already thinking about conducting a major investigation inside the palace after the Martial God Festival.

As for the key point, it must be on the diet. From preparation to presentation, everyone involved in every link will definitely not escape the result of being investigated.

After all, someone has already made a sample. If you don't pay attention, you can't blame the Diabolos Cult for being vicious, but only blame yourself for being stupid.

In fact, Alice can already predict that after today's words are spread, other kingdoms will definitely have the same behavior.

After all, no one will not be afraid of this kind of secret medicine.

"Fortunately, it's over." Rose couldn't help but say.

"This is really something worth celebrating. By the way, Princess Rose, I wonder if you can introduce me to the therapist with special ancient artifacts?" Alice tried again.

"Princess Alice, I'm really sorry. Regarding the identity of the therapist, I don't know anything except that his code name is Light. He was invited by my teacher, and the teacher didn't tell me any relevant information other than his name." Rose shook her head directly.

"This is such a pity. After all, people with such special abilities would like to know them no matter who they are." Alice did not argue, but said with a little regret.

"Indeed, I mentioned it to the teacher before, but unfortunately the teacher could not do anything. In fact, the therapist was invited by the teacher at a certain price." Rose also showed a regretful expression and said.

"Princess Rose, I have always heard you mention your teacher. I wonder who your teacher is." Alice asked again.

"Princess Alice, I am sorry that I cannot announce the identity of my teacher to the public for the time being." Rose shook her head and said.

"Okay, then Princess Rose, after this happened in your country, what are your plans next?" Alice asked immediately.

As for what she really wanted to ask, Rose knew that it was when the people from the Kingdom of Oriana would leave.

"Princess Alice, since the internal troubles have been eliminated and it is rare for you to attend the Martial God Festival, my father means that you should wait until the Martial God Festival is over before leaving for the country." Rose gave a straightforward answer.

"Princess Rose, the Duke of Doem should still have remnants in the Kingdom of Oriana, right?" Although Alice wanted to say it clearly, in such a public occasion, she could only remind him implicitly at this moment.

"Thank you for your reminder, Princess Alice. But there is no need to worry. My father has sent someone to pass on the news about the domestic affairs. There are still many people loyal to the royal family in the country. There is no need to worry with them.

In addition, this incident came very suddenly, and the personnel were cleared out very thoroughly, so it is also necessary to dispatch a guard team from the country." Rose knew what Alice was reminding, so she answered implicitly.

Seeing Rose's expression, Alice knew that she was probably aware of the existence of the Diabolos Cult.

Since the other party was already prepared, there was no need to say more.

However, both Rose and Alice knew one thing, that is, after today's meeting, the contents of the interview would definitely not be hidden from those who are interested.

As for what kind of impact it will cause, it is still unknown for the time being.

Three days passed quickly.

The Martial God Festival finally ushered in the main competition.

The main competition lasts for three days. The first day is the top eight, the second day is the top four, and the last day is the final.

Claire's first opponent in the main competition is none other than Anne Luojie Fushianas, one of the Seven Warriors of Levigartai in the Kingdom of Bekada, who is also the opponent that Sid Kageno encountered after entering the main competition in the original book.

Originally, Anne Luojie should be the opponent of the winner of the preliminary B area, but since Claire wants to show her strength, she must choose the one with a big reputation.

For the organizer, it is very simple to manipulate the order of the battle.

After the adjustment, Claire's first round opponent became Anne Luojie, and she would not meet Alice in the second round, because Princess Alice did not participate in the Martial God Festival this time.

As for why?

The reason is very simple. In the original work, she chose to participate because the fool Geno died at the hands of the "terrorist" Shadow Courtyard, which seriously affected the reputation of Wangdu Wuxinliu. Alice had to participate in the Wushen Festival and wanted to rely on winning the championship to revive the reputation of Wangdu Wuxinliu.

But in this version, Geno just disappeared, and outsiders could not forcibly link his disappearance with Wangdu Wuxinliu.

You should know that although the results of a direct defeat and a defeat by a despicable sneak attack are the same, they are completely different situations for the schools they represent.

In particular, Alexia had already expressed her intention to participate in the competition to Alice. If Alice hadn't been so bad as to give up the royal quota to Alexia, who had no results, Alexia would not have needed to rely on substitute Rose to get a place in the academy's main competition.

In fact, before Li De and others returned, she participated in the preliminaries and relied on the results of easily winning the first three rounds to shut up many people, so she got the substitute quota without having to continue to fight for a place in the preliminaries.

It was because Alexia expressed her intention to participate that Alice chose not to participate.

After all, Alexia wanted to show her strength, and as a sister, she should not hinder her.

If she really participated and met Alexia in the finals, she would have to win.

Because if Alexia won, there would be a lot of twists and turns in the royal family.

But this would be very unfair to Alexia. Without having to win the Martial God Festival championship, Alice had already given the royal family's quota to the offspring of a member of the faction.

Back to the point, although there were four games on the first day of the main competition, there was no doubt that the most attractive one was Claire VS Anne Luojie.

Who said that the other three games were all duels between rough men, and only this one was a rare duel between beautiful girl magic swordsmen, so the attention was naturally the highest.
