[West Fantasy] The noble lady who was divorced became rich

The sky belongs to the gods, and the earth belongs to the devil.

Astaros, who left from Mariana, walked to the top of the Tower of Sighs without haste.

Because the newly appointed Duchess only signed the release orders for a small number of nobles, and most of them were minors and women without inheritance rights, many famous and powerful figures were still imprisoned in the Tower of Sighs.At the beginning, they would show face to the staff in the tower, or ask to meet the newly appointed duchess.However, under Astaros' iron-blooded wrist, he soon realized that he had to keep a low profile.

"Did you sign it?" Astaros rubbed his temples, not remembering how long he hadn't had a good rest.

Marianna of Karda is simply the kind of loyal object that her subordinates respect and love. Once she starts doing things, she can't stop, and she can't wait to compress the workload of a month into a week.

Even the captain of the personal guard, who is as physically fit as Astaros, can't help but feel a sense of being squeezed dry.

"Basically signed, only a few diehards in the innermost part are still stubborn." During the time when Astaros returned to Marianne, Botis, the vice-captain of the pro-guards, took over the responsibility of Astaros. Work, and use all means allowed by the law to get a signature from the nobles agreeing to reduce taxes.

"Give me the list of those diehards." Because the tower of sighs went up, the passage became narrower, so Astaros' sword would occasionally hit the hard wall, causing some prisoners to tremble.

When Botis was about to reach the top floor, he stopped the followers who followed him, and then watched Astaros enter the room where the prisoners on the top floor were held.

Except for the captain of the personal guard, only the Duchess in Brittany is eligible to enter the top floor of the Tower of Sighs.

There have been folk rumors that there is an evil dragon locked in the Tower of Sighs in Britannia, and the former former Duke, that is, Marianne's grandfather, became powerful and rich by the magic power of the evil dragon.However, such unfounded rumors are not accepted by people with a little brain.After all, if the former Duke really had a dragon, then Brittania would have taken over the entire South long ago, and still struggled with breaking away from Solins for decades?

"What a rare guest!" The prisoner who was held on the top floor of the Tower of Sighs was "entangled" on a stone pillar engraved with "purification spells".After seeing Astaros come in, like a pole dancer, he slid down from the roof little by little in a seductive and ambiguous posture.

In appearance, the prisoner was only on par with Denhill.It clearly has a slightly soft male voice, but it does not have obvious masculine features such as Adam's apple, and it is slender and good-looking, so that it can appear in the drama Helen, the peerless beauty who caused the southern war.

A head of soft silver hair, honey-colored skin, and violet eyes.

Even if she doesn't wear makeup and doesn't deserve fancy clothes, her refined beauty alone can firmly capture everyone's heart.

"Put away your frivolous appearance." Astaros was not at all overwhelmed by the prisoner's enchanting charm: "I am not a stupid man who was bewitched by you."

"Tsk! After staying in the human world for so many years, you are not much better than those men you describe as 'stupid'." The prisoner on the top floor shook the chains on his limbs, and saw the latter under the slightest wave of magic power , actually floated in the air, and then the prisoner on the top floor raised his legs and sat on the chain that bound him like sitting on a chair.

"Master Astaros, you are not addicted to boring human role-playing games!" The prisoner on the top floor exchanged his upturned legs, with a playful and malicious expression: "Or... the newly appointed The Duchess is in trouble?"

"It's more troublesome than you think." Astaros hooked his hands, and the chain that the prisoner on the top floor used to carry himself suddenly fell down, almost causing the latter to fall to the ground.

"You really have no mercy." The prisoner on the top floor complained softly, which aroused Astaros' impatience.

"Stop talking about those useless nonsense." Astaros bent down and picked up the chain that locked the prisoner on the top floor, and pulled it in front of him: "It's time for you to come in handy, if laziness is not good for the new Duchess If it works, then it's up to you to seduce him."

"Sidi, if you can't even solve a little girl, then don't even think about returning to hell after the mission fails." Astaros looked up at the top of the pillar, and saw a worn-out knife sticking there , directly weakened the strength of Astaros and Sidi by more than half.

Seeing this, the prisoner on the top floor, who was called "Sidi" by Astaros, turned his unwillingness to ridicule Astaros: "I would like to charm that young duchess, but only if you have Let me get away from this pillar, or just pull out the dagger from it."

"A gift from God...or a punishment."

Sidi admired Astaros' increasingly ugly face, and still danced on the opponent's nerve minefield: "How? Can you do this, Master Astaros?"

Sidi deliberately wrapped the opponent's name on the tip of his tongue for a long time, which made Astaros feel sick.

"I will take this opportunity to bring the duchess." Unwilling, Astaros glanced at Sidi's charming face, and punched Sidi directly in the stomach: "I hope your strength has not been weakened to the point Can't keep up with the level of lip service."

"Also, I hope you still remember that you are a lazy devil, not a dog loyal to Britannia." Sidi's viscera were displaced after being beaten, and she knelt on the ground and spit out a mouthful of black blood.

"Save your lips! At the same time, think about how you want to face the new duchess." Astaros seemed to have thought of something before leaving, and suddenly said to Sidi: "By the way, I am still here. The Duchess saw your child by her side."

"Although he looks more like his father, his personality is very similar to yours, and he is not as smart as you."

Sidi's pupils constricted for a moment, and finally at the moment the door closed, she let out a deep and helpless laugh: "It's not a good thing to have a personality like me."

At this moment, it seemed to understand Astaros' intentions, so it wiped off the blood from its lips, hugged its knees and sat by the pillar restraining it, crying and laughing, "Why hasn't he forgotten me?"

The dagger inserted at the top of the pillar suddenly emitted a white light that was so weak that it resembled a firefly.

But in an instant, the white light disappeared.

Only Sidi was left holding his chest under the pillar, feeling that his strength had been weakened a lot.

…………

……

Astaros, who came out of the top floor of the Tower of Sighs, did not want to hide his terrible mood.

Botis stayed on the floor two floors away from the top floor. After seeing Astaros come down, he tentatively asked, "Has he not learned his lesson yet?"

"Do you think demons are a species that can learn to be good?" Astaros set up a "silence" for himself and Botis, so that the people behind them didn't know that the first and second leaders of the SS were discussing There is a topic about demons.

"Huh...? I thought Sidi would learn to behave better after being imprisoned for decades." The smiling appearance of Botis made it impossible to imagine that he had worked with Sidi for thousands of years.

Because demons are inherently difficult to empathize with humans, even more ruthless than bloodthirsty mermaids—because mermaids generally don’t attack their own kind, and demons are more ruthless than inducing ground creatures to degenerate. Likes to watch kindred go to ruin.

"Sidi's magic power has not been purified by the 'Dagger of the Gods'!" Botis and Astaros glanced at the direction of the top floor when they left, and saw that it was just like the dungeon of the Grand Duchy of Aquique. The more dangerous the place is, the more magic circles are engraved, and some of the newly engraved magic circles overlap with the disappearing magic circles, thus distorting part of the magic power in the Tower of Sighing.

Astaros patted Botis on the back of the head, signaling him not to always look at the top floor of the Tower of Sighs: "It is an old thing from 1000 years ago, and the magic power left by Emperor Capel on it will also follow." As time goes by, it gradually disappears, so Sidi still has the power to maintain the human form.

"Really?" Botis is not very interested in the "demon shame" that fell to the top of the human race. He just wants to know whether Sidi's power will work for the newly appointed duchess: "Since the little girl of Karda Immune to your magic power, I'm afraid that half-assed Sidi won't have much effect on her."

"Or……"

Botis suddenly put his head in front of Astaros, but bumped into the other's breastplate: "You must have used all your strength!"

Botis, who retracted his head, didn't care about his red nose hit by Astaros' breastplate, and directly used his professional power on Astaros.

"Don't worry, I'm not weak enough to be domesticated into a dog after only staying in the human world for a few decades." Facing Botis' accusation, Astaros yawned lazily, not caring about himself at all. His authority was challenged: "Don't compare me with that idiot Siddi, at least I won't fall on humans."

"These words don't sound like ordinary sarcasm." Botis already pointed out: "Sidi is not the only one who fell on human beings. If the lord hears about it, you will be in trouble."

"So demons are sometimes more troublesome than humans." Astaros twisted his neck, really afraid that he would be found by those unreasonable guys, and then there would be some unnecessary "workload".

"I'm looking for an opportunity to mention Sidi in front of the Duchess. If Sidi's power doesn't work against the Duchess, then bring Sidi's 'child' and see if its bloodline can increase its position Power." Astaros brought the topic back on track, and then went to have a good chat with those non-violent and non-cooperative nobles.
