Skeleton King

"Actually, you guessed right. The Finger Empire has indeed reached an agreement with the Magic Island. As long as the Finger family is still in power in this empire, the Knights of the Pansy Empire will not be able to cross the Prin Mountains." Princess Muse said.

Princess Muse stood up from her chair.

The position of Princess Muse is at the innermost part of the conference hall, where the sunlight cannot reach. People who usually sit behind the long table cannot see Princess Muse's face clearly, so they have no way of ascertaining her thoughts.

Ace sneered: "Then what will the Finger Empire give to Magic Island?"

The sun sets, the sky is bruised red, and the blood-red sunset shines through the bright windows into the meeting hall of Finger Palace, and shines on the long table between Ace and Princess Muse, and the old parchments seem to be covered with The red dress of the bride.

Princess Muse said: "After the owner of Magic Island swears the oath on behalf of Magic Island, the Sword Master of the Golden Lion will take the Knights of the Golden Lion and the Knights of Prin Canyon of the Finger Empire to the Magic Island to fight for the Magic Island."

Ace frowned slightly, and said: "Fight for the magic island, is there any enemy of the magic island on this continent?"

If Magic Island wants to rule the entire continent, they only need to use the hands of the Finger Empire to capture the Pansy Empire, and then use the Finger Family as puppets.Keeping the sovereignty of the Finger Empire, and then attacking the Pansy Empire, wouldn't it be less of a chore?

Princess Muse shook her head and said, "Scholar Ace, this is not something you should care about."

"I think you already know that I am a necromancer. When I stepped into this palace, there was no secret about the soul that could be hidden from me in this palace." Ace mocked: "But, Princess Muse, Your good father, His Majesty the great King of the Finger Empire, I did not feel his soul in the Finger Palace."

Princess Muse walked slowly across the long table and walked in front of Ace. The blood-red sunset also shone on her face, which added two rednesses to her pale face when she mentioned that the Golden Lion Sword Master went to the magic island.

Princess Muse said lightly: "Father's soul has left us, but he will still protect us."

Ace said: "What did you do with the magic tower in the Finger Palace?"

Princess Muse took out a yellowed parchment scroll filled with ancient magic words from the parchment scroll on the long table and handed it to Ace.

The edge of the sheepskin scroll has been worn very badly, and it can be seen that it has experienced a long and long time.

"Finger, who rose from the market, will gain the supreme power in the east of the mainland and possess all the wealth in this world, but no amount of money can stop their bodies from decaying. As long as they wake up for a day, their hearts will be broken The pain of splitting the soul, day and night, appearing in the world and dying, like a shadow."

Ace asked, "This is?"

Princess Muse said: "The astrologer's 'blessing'."

When Princess Muse said this, her voice was extremely calm. Ace looked at her, but felt chills for no reason.Ace's fingers gently rubbed the parchment, and each word written in ancient magic language had a unique magic circle. Not to mention the curse, the value of the magic inheritance on the parchment alone is inestimable.

When he saw the parchment, Ace had already believed the words of Princess Muse.The kings of the Finger Empire were indeed short-lived, and their physical fitness was not as good as He, and the souls of the old king and Prince Bartholomew disappeared, and they were not found in the dead world. If the Finger family used the magic tower of the Skeleton King to use that method If so, everything makes sense.

However, "What does Her Royal Highness need me to do?" Ace still didn't understand, "If my memory is correct, besides the royal family, there is another branch of the Finger family in Beihai."

More than a hundred years ago, there was civil strife in the Finger Empire. At that time, the eldest prince of the empire was immoral, mutilated family members, and intended to usurp the throne. He was dispatched by the king to an island in the North Sea.

Seriously speaking, the Finger family still has a branch in Beihai.

Princess Muse said: "Do you think I haven't thought about it? During the morning discussion, several ministers proposed to bring back the members of the Beihai family. They also told me that there was a member of the Finger family there. The young man is already an eighth-level swordsman."

Ace looked at the parchment in his hand and said, "If this prophecy is true, it is impossible for the Finger family to produce high-level swordsmen."

Ace thought in a daze of the decline of the Finger family's martial arts over the past few hundred years. It is clear that the Finger fighting spirit is as powerful as the pansy fighting spirit, and there have been many amazingly talented sword masters in the history of the Finger family.

But now, neither the old king nor Prince Bartholomew has even practiced fighting qi.

There is indeed a reason for this.

Princess Muse snorted coldly, "So you still think he is from the Finger family?"

Ace: This paternity test...

Ace said: "But, grudge..."

"It is said that he inherited his mother's fighting spirit." Princess Muse looked at Ace with a half-smile, and said, "I would rather he awakened Finger fighting spirit, but it solved the predicament in front of me."

Without the male heir of the Finger family, the contract between the Finger Empire and Magic Island naturally ceased to exist.

For the Finger Empire, the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages.

As for the possibility that the young man from Beihai is indeed the heir of the Finger family, it is not within the scope of Princess Muse's consideration.In the case that both parents' families are gifted fighting energy, their children can only inherit stronger and older fighting energy.

Ace didn't believe that Princess Muse was willing to give up the throne if the Finger family still had offshoots.All the things that happened in these years proved that Princess Muse is a woman with a strong desire for power, and this experience of monopolizing power made it impossible for her to live a life of being a husband and a child.

Ace said: "However, His Majesty the king of the Finger Empire is only a shell alive. Will Magic Island abide by the agreement and sign a contract with you? You still have to find an heir for this empire."

Princess Muse watched Ace quietly.

Ace blinked, and the corners of Princess Muse's mouth curled slightly.It has been a long time since the accident happened on the old king's birthday, and all the pressure has been put on the shoulders of Princess Muse. She has never smiled sincerely like now.

Ace's expression gradually stiffened, "What does Her Royal Highness mean? No way, could it be that the person you are thinking of is..."

Princess Muse's smile gradually deepened.

Ace was shocked: "Me??!!"

……

The sky was full of white clouds, and it was a sunny and sunny day.

Alter was polishing his epee under the big tree in the garden of Finger Palace, and Bill was instructing the attendants to place refreshments.

Duchess Eugenia is also at Finger Palace.She was leaning on a deck chair, which was exactly the same as the one in the Black Manor, and she was eating melon seeds comfortably, looking in a certain direction with interest.

Princess Muse's maid was putting powder on Ace's face, and Ace wanted to refuse her, "I don't want to put on such a thick powder. God. What do you want to put on my lips..."

Just as Princess Eugenia was watching with a smile, Ace refused endlessly, and Princess Muse's maid was at a loss, a cold female voice came from not far away, "My dear brother, what's wrong with you? "

The Princess Muse has arrived before she arrives.

All the attendants and maids in the garden saluted Princess Muse, and Princess Eugenia also stood up and bowed to Princess Muse. Only Ace, Bill, and Art remained motionless. Seeing Princess Muse, I protested to her, "I won't put those things on my face."

Princess Muse smiled gently at Ace, "This is not acceptable, my dear brother, all the nobles in the Finger Empire are like this. When Bartholomew was still alive, he had to make up every day."

Ace doesn't know how Princess Muse and Princess Eugenia operate.

When Phil Black arrived at the palace, the old king woke up briefly and told Princess Muse that Phil Black's mother had a dewy marriage with him, and that Phil Black was probably his child.This rumor has spread throughout the imperial capital of the Finger Empire.

Princess Muse plans to announce Ace's identity after a while. When Princess Muse holds a banquet in Ace's name again, Ace will already be Phil Finger.

Princess Muse has stepped out of the shadow of Prince Bartholomew's death, and she is not shy about mentioning him recently.Of course, it may be that Princess Muse has found a more interesting "brother".

Ace has never doubted Fenfur's vision like now, how could she fall in love with a man from the Finger Empire.

At the same time, Ace wanted to die, "I didn't see Prince Bartholomew putting on makeup every day, maybe he just dealt with you occasionally."

Princess Eugenia walked up to Princess Muse, her eyes were full of gloating, but she pretended to persuade Ace gently, "Prince Bartholomew wears makeup every day, but you can't see it. Don't worry, Phil The prince, the muse princess maid's makeup skills are famous throughout the empire, she will make you more charming. Others can't see the traces of makeup."

Ace's objections were ruthlessly suppressed.

Especially when Princess Muse's fingers brushed Ace's neck intentionally or unintentionally, Ace became very quiet.

There is a silver pendant on Ace's neck. Princess Muse called it the Star Stone. She said it was a gift from the magic island when the Finger Empire was founded, and it could control the magic power of the magician.

There are only three Star Stones in the entire continent, and two are in the Pansy Empire and the Magic Island.

In Ace's view, this is a collar that gives Princess Muse the opportunity to manipulate his life and death.

Ace naturally refuses to put on this "collar" because no one can take it off except Princess Muse.

Ace also thinks what he said is very reasonable. The magic-proof formation in Finger Palace has never been closed, and he can't escape at all, so why wear another burden.

Princess Muse is also full of smiles. She firmly, like a girl in love, gently helps Ace put on the pendant, but she is merciless when she says, "This will make me trust you more. Not to worry about, is it, my dear brother."

After Esther put on the "collar", Princess Muse let Art and Bill out of the dungeon as she promised.Anyway, they are all followers of Ace, and Ace is trapped in the Palace of Finger, where can they go.

Therefore, when Princess Muse reminded Ace of the existence of the "collar" and the reality that he was subject to others, Ace could only helplessly be at the mercy of Princess Muse and her maid.

Not only that, but they also discussed it with great interest.

"Oh my god, Prince Phil's skin is fine. Is there any secret recipe for maintaining it?" Princess Eugenia, it turns out that you also love beauty.

"The blush on Brother Phil's face can be darker and more natural." Princess Muse felt that the maid's makeup could not achieve the effect she wanted, so she started to apply it herself.

"Your Highness, tie Prince Phil's hair up to make him look more energetic. His forehead is very similar to that of Her Royal Highness, and it is very full." After the brush was taken away by Princess Muse, the maid of Princess Muse gave her idea to Ace. hair.

Ace Wooden Man Neumann sat there stiffly. In Princess Muse's view, Ace's follower, Alter, who was extremely heartfelt, was more focused on wiping the epee, and Bill re-arranged the already arranged fruit plate.

They don't care about their adults at all, they just hope that the two honorable ladies don't make their minds on them.

To be honest, the actions of Princess Muse and Princess Eugenia are out of the scope of the mission. They are as excited as if they found an interesting doll.

"Oh, dear brother, I found you the best etiquette teacher in the Finger Empire, he will teach you how to be a real prince." The voice of Princess Muse floated far away, with a bit of dissatisfaction kindness.
