Skeleton King

The silver fork with the Green family emblem fell onto the clean white plate.

Ace sat on the bed with soft pillows behind him and a small brown table in front of him. This was supposed to be a wonderful afternoon tea time.Although nobles who live a lazy life will not sleep until this time, Ace has no regrets for wasting a good time. In fact, he has just returned from Evernight City.

With the acquiescence of the lich Ingersoll, after conquering the undead lords Reagan and Bacon, Eternal Night City gradually occupied most of the south of the dead world.Although the forces bordering the territory of Eternal Night City have begun to gather to jointly boycott Eternal Night City, General Arnold did not take them seriously. All kinds of alliances only gave the Eternal Night Knights a chance to train their troops.

After one battle after another, the reputation of the Eternal Night Knights spread from the southern part of the Dead Realm to the entire Dead Realm.General Arnold told Ace that when all the skeleton knights of the Eternal Night Knights complete their advancement in the Little Necromancer Sea, the Eternal Night Knights will become one of the three major knights in the dead world.

From the invincible Knights of the Royal Guard under the pansy banner thousands of years ago, to the long wait in the boundless wilderness, the undying faith, to the real and loyal monarch waiting in the dark.

The Knights of Eternal Night have already become invincible in the desperate waiting, and they have also completed Nirvana in the black vortex of the small Necromancer Sea beside the Necromancer who inherited the Skeleton King's magic.

In Devil May Cry Forest, Knights of Eternal Night accidentally met Knights of Devil May Cry.In this battle where both sides were caught off guard, the Eternal Night Knights swept across the forest like a black wind, and appeared silently behind the Devil May Cry Knights like an assassin's dagger.Countless soul fires disappeared after this war, and the Eternal Night Knights buried the bones of the defeated in the wasteland, and took over Devil May Cry City as a matter of course.

Devil May Cry City is the northernmost city in the south of the Deadland, and it is also the city bordering the central city.

Originally, Devil May Cry City was a buffer zone between Central City and Eternal Night City.In the plan of General Arnold and Ace, unless they dominate the southern part of the dead world, they will not move Devil May Cry City.As a result, "The Devil May Cry Knights are too inept." General Arnold reviewed the glorious achievements of the Devil May Cry Knights since its establishment, and deeply suspected that these were all fabricated by Devil May Cry City itself.

Ace had just dealt with the Devil May Cry City matter in a mess, and when he returned to the present world to hide, he got an unbelievable news.

Ace ignored the silver fork that fell on the plate, and said, "I don't understand."

"Yesterday, young master, when you came back from the Marquis of Rose's mansion, there were a lot of gossip. After Her Royal Highness Princess Fenfur left Mrs. Anne's gift shop, because of your love for Princess Fenfur, you challenged the head of the Royal Knights Kex proposed a duel." Butler Bill stood respectfully beside Ace, with a flat attitude, as if what he said was not absurd at all.

Ace: ...

Butler Bill: "It is conceivable that you lost the duel. Lord Sykes did not take your life. He asked you to drive the carriage and take Miss Ross back to the residence of the Marquess of Ross. And today, during the day, people from Bad Soden The news that Ace Neumann loves Princess Fenfell and regrets becoming a scholar has spread throughout the imperial capital, and even some bards have begun to compose poems." I will strive to make you famous through the ages.

Even after hearing it twice, Ace still felt strange about the logic of this rumor.

After racking his brains, Ace found a relatively reasonable explanation.

Yesterday, at Mrs. Anne's gift shop, Princess Fenfur lost such a big face, and there were so many nobles watching.Although Prince Xiben and Princess Fenfur, who have a high approval rate, are half-brothers, the relationship between the two is not bad. Even if Prince Xiben really ascended to the throne, in order to show his benevolence, he will treat Princess Fenfur well .What's more, now, Ludwig IV loves Queen Celia very much, and Princess Fenfur is his only daughter.

In order to prevent things from developing in the worst direction, the people present at that time "find" a person with some status but no power for Princess Fenfur.And Ace hit the muzzle just right.Ace is the heir of Viscount Neumann, but he regards power as a cloud. Such a person can't help falling in love with Princess Fenfur, how can it not explain the charm of Princess Fenfur.

Even if Ace refuses to admit it in the future, because of his status as a scholar, not many people will believe it.And because Ace gave up his inheritance rights, it means that he has no power in his hands.The slight dislike of such a person can't hinder the mood of the nobles at all.

Ace looked at the exquisite snacks on the small table in front of him, and lost his appetite for an instant, "Take it off."

Bill left the bedroom with the table in his hand, but he came back a little slowly.Ace was still leaning on the bed, he frowned slightly, not in a very beautiful mood, "Why have you been here for so long?"

Bill: "Miss Bernadette is here. I said it's not convenient for you to see guests right now, master." Ace's pajamas were opened, revealing his fair and clean chest. Ace nodded casually after listening to Bill's words.

Bill: "Then Miss Bernadette told me to tell the young master not to be too sad. She knows Princess Fenfur, and Princess Fenful is a very good girl, and the young master has a good vision. If necessary, she can help invite Fenfell The princess is coming to the mansion."

Bill didn't tell Ace how touched Princess Fenfur was when she said these words, and how uncomfortable she was for Ace.

But that was enough to annoy Ace.

Ace: "So Nou was referring to this matter yesterday?! They must have told me behind my back when they gossip about me! How would I know?! Would he think that I hope such things spread throughout the capital? I really want to beat him up."

Of course Ace knew it wasn't Nou's fault.He just thought, "I'd rather go back to the Necropolis and lead the Knights of Eternal Night into Central City than go out!" Ace scholars who are obsessed with love are simply stupid!

Ace is also tired of these intricate relationships in the imperial capital!
