The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 661, Aurora’s Dilemma

This year's Sky Castle is still shrouded in wind and snow. White snowflakes fell from high in the sky, covering the entire giant castle built on the mountain. This castle was called by Margarita, the light witch of the Holy Domain. , the headquarters of the Gloria Council, composed of five large wizard towers, has stood here for more than a hundred years.

However, the current situation of the Garland Council has gradually deteriorated recently.

First of all, the relationship between Margarita, as the speaker, and the elder Aurora has further deteriorated. Aurora is extremely dissatisfied with Margarita, who has been the speaker for more than a hundred years. She has expressed the hope more than once that she can Re-elect and reorganize the Presbyterian Church to attract new blood.

In fact, Aurora's suggestion is not unreasonable. The Gloria Council currently has about thirty witches or sorceresses with legendary strength, while there are currently only three strong people in the Saint Realm. They are the light type who are at the peak of the Saint Realm. Margarita, a sky witch, Aurora, an ice witch with a high level of strength in the holy realm, and Carolina, a death and metal witch with an intermediate level of strength in the holy realm.

In addition, the Kislev Tsarina Katalin also maintains a good relationship with the Gloria Council, but she is not considered a member of the council.

The three have always maintained a delicate balance. Margarita and Aurora have been fighting each other all year round, while Carolina has always been engaged in research behind closed doors. She does not have many students, and she is only allowed to let go of herself when the situation is most critical. research, leading the apprentices to the battlefield.

Originally, Margarita and Aurora were almost evenly matched in strength. They had their own supporters within the parliament. For decades, both sides had been wooing each other's young witch apprentices and forces outside the parliament.

Now, this balance has begun to be broken. The female elder Veronica is attacking the sanctuary with all her strength. She has been in seclusion for nearly half a year. People in the entire council are waiting, waiting for Veronica's success. Once Veronica succeeds, Speaker Margarita will complete the suppression of Aurora.

Aurora also felt helpless about this. Teresa and Veronica were essentially different. One of them was a warlock and the other a wizard. The warlock's spellcasting relied on blood, and promotion basically relied on blood purification and Condensation, and wizards can learn all the spells that fit their own magical wind. Veronica only needs to learn according to the routine specified by Teclis. The collection of books in the White Tower of Hoth in the Kingdom of Savri greatly enriched Veronica. Ka's spell reserves allowed her to quickly reach the threshold of the holy realm.

Teresa is different. It takes a long time for the ice blood in her body to condense. High elves are not interested in ice magic. The sorceress is stuck after advancing to the legendary peak and can never be found. In order to advance to the Holy Realm level, Theresa had no choice but to turn to Aurora, but Aurora had nothing to do about it. The only thing she could do was to teach Teresa several major spells that followed the ice magic. Sha, let her slowly ponder and understand, and then condense the power of blood.

To put it simply, warlocks compete for father (mother), and wizards compete for money. Since Veronica received Ryan's financial and power support, the speed of promotion made Aurora feel threatened.

Secondly, the external environment of the Glory Council has also begun to become bad. Unlike the previous royal chief wizard and Flame Academy Dean Sernus Gehrman, the new imperial royal chief wizard Baershazer Gehrt Unlike Gehrman, who was intent on exploring Albion Island, he focused his attention on the misuse of magic within the Empire.

The witches of Galland were soon on the blacklist of Gallan. This group of witches pursues luxury and elegance in life, but are not very interested in resisting Chaos and greenskins. Gallt is not interested in the Council of Galland. , the great alchemist was very determined. He believed that these witches forming their own system was simply a challenge to the existing order of the empire, and he could not tolerate it. He felt that these witches had only two choices, or join the empire's Royal Academy of Wizards to accept a unified management, or be burned at the stake.

(The only exceptions are Veronica and Theresa. These two witches have the status of female courtiers on Ryan's side, and Galt agrees with this)

Emperor Karl-Franz disapproved of Gelt's use of such radical methods but trusted and relied on Gelt in other matters. The attitude of the Imperial Court toward the Gloria Council was also quite ambiguous, and the secret sanctions had been here we go.

The Glory Council will not bow to the Imperial Royal Wizarding Academy. They still maintain a strong influence in the northern part of the Empire and Kislev. However, without the acquiescence and support from the Imperial Court, they are again threatened by Galt. It is an indisputable fact that the Gloria Council must change its current domestic and foreign policy to suppress deliberately.

Today, Teresa is wearing a white rippling leaf top and black straight elastic trousers, with a purple robe outside, paired with a pair of black stiletto high-heeled boots, shimmering and Her waist-deep black hair was not tied up, but let down. The sorceress was already forty this year, and it had been thirteen years since she had gone on an adventure with Ryan.

In her hand she held a letter from Brittany, engraved with the image of the Holy Grail and with Ryan's name written on it.

The sorceress hadn't seen Ryan for more than a year. Holding Ryan's letter in her hand, Theresa was a little excited. She forced herself to stay calm and came to Aurora's wizard tower.

It was now four o'clock in the afternoon, and the snow was still blowing outside the castle. Aurora's wizard tower should have been very lively, but when Teresa spoke the secret word and entered Aurora's wizard tower, she found that there were not many witches. The apprentices were active, and there were only a few ice golems left on the first floor that were on standby. The deep wizard tower was cold and damp, and the cold wind blowing in front of her made Theresa frown, and she turned towards her The apprentice, a witch apprentice named Emma asked: "Where is mother? Where are the others?"

"Madam just came back and got angry, Congressman." Emma was wearing an ice blue robe, black pantyhose and brown leather shoes. Her long brown hair was messy. She heard Theresa ask. , the apprentice lowered his head in fear: "She asked all of us to go downstairs and not appear in front of her, otherwise she cannot guarantee whether she will be unable to control herself."

"Mother..." Naturally, Theresa also knew that the Garland Council was in internal and external difficulties. She could only comfort her apprentice and let her go to rest first. Then she took Ryan's letter and walked up the steps step by step. Went to the top floor and knocked on the door.

"Dong~dong~ Can I come in?"

"Teresa? Come in?" The mature female voice was full of uncontrollable fatigue. When she heard the voice of her daughter, Aurora asked Theresa to come in: "What's the matter? My daughter, I Feeling a bit tired."

"Mother, Ryan gave us a letter!" Theresa gently opened the door.

The room is extremely luxuriously decorated. Furniture made of fine cherry wood is displayed in the room. The carpet is made of fine white bear skin imported from Kislev. The goose-yellow magic lamp lights up the solemn room. In such an environment, Aurora was hiding in the room on a sofa chair made of a whole piece of white wolf skin. The elegant and gorgeous sanctuary witch was wearing a white lace dress today, with a pair of slender and straight silky feet. Wearing silver-white high-heeled shoes, her silky hair as dark as night was fixed with a silver hairpin, and gold-rimmed glasses. Her mature and beautiful jade-carved facial features showed a divine, noble and beautiful elegance.

"Did you receive a letter from Ryan?" Aurora's face was not pretty. Seeing Theresa come in, the Holy Witch rubbed her eyebrows. She stretched out her hand to signal Theresa to sit down: "What did he say?"

"He said he had returned to his principality. He asked me when I could go back, and invited mother to visit his territory again." Teresa strode in from the door. She hesitated for a moment, but still sat down. Opposite Aurora: "Mother, what do you think?"

"Oh, men are like this." Aurora didn't even open her eyes. The Holy Witch adjusted her white and elegant dress, and didn't even turn her eyes to Theresa: "If he really wants to see you If you want to see me, he can personally come to Sky Castle to pick you up and invite me by the way. Now write a letter. All greetings and invitations are fake and cover up. He must have some request, right?"

"Um..." Theresa sat next to Aurora, and she nodded: "Ryan proposed to import more magic ore, and he asked his mother if there was any more."

"Huh!" Aurora opened her silver eyes. She opened her mouth and was about to say something, but in the end she only sighed: "I really didn't expect that the boy who was trembling in front of me back then would now He has actually grown to this point, and he is now one of the most powerful men in the entire old world. My daughter, even so, don’t you regret it?”

"I have never regretted it." Theresa blushed slightly when she heard Aurora's words. She said firmly: "I have no regrets at all. This is my choice. Mother, you have no right to interfere with my decision."

"Oh, yes, my daughter has grown up." The expression on Aurora's face changed back and forth, and the golden glasses chain swayed slightly with her movements: "Have you ever thought that this day, our mother and daughter will have to Relying on Ryan’s blessing?”

"Relying on Ryan's blessing?!" Teresa suddenly raised her head, and the sorceress's face was filled with confusion and confusion: "Why? Mother, what happened?"

"We are about to be kicked out of the parliament, Theresa." Aurora sighed softly: "Maybe in the future I will have to live in Britannia, your wizard tower."

"Being kicked out of the parliament? How could Speaker Margarita do that?!" Theresa tightened her grip on the violet staff and tapped her heels on the ground, feeling a little anxious.

"I'm in trouble now." Aurora shook her head very tiredly: "As we all know, Veronica is attacking the Holy Realm. If she succeeds in attacking the Holy Realm, then I will be at an absolute disadvantage in the parliament, Veronica Nika is Margarita's personal apprentice and has a close relationship. Once faced with decisions in the future, Veronica will undoubtedly side with Margarita. If this is the case, then sooner or later I will be kicked out of the Presbyterian Church. thing."

"But from another perspective, if Veronica can successfully attack the Holy Realm level, then she will not be far away as the speaker. In this case, perhaps the empire's chief wizard Galt will give up on us. The Garland Council is taking action." Aurora was helpless when talking about this issue: "I don't know why, but Galt seems to have a very good relationship with Ryan. He made it clear that if you or Veronica can serve as speaker, he can consider it. Withdraw the sanctions against the Gloria Parliament. From this point of view, the entire Parliament does not want Veronica to fail, otherwise it will be a wizard war. The nobles in the northern part of the empire will not stand on our side, and no one is willing to move. Go to Kislev."

"...It's useless for me, mother. I spent a lot of time and still couldn't find where the threshold of the holy realm is." Theresa's expression dimmed after listening to Aurora's story. The warlock condensed and strengthened the bloodline. It takes a long time, unlike Veronica who only needs to study before she can be promoted.

"So, now we, mother and daughter, can only count on Ryan." Aurora said with a hint of anger on her face: "But that man is no longer the little warrior he used to be. He is now very arrogant and likes to be in front of me. Put on airs! Teresa, do you think the last time I visited his territory, his attitude was like treating his mother-in-law?"

"Lian is different from before. Mother, if his attitude towards you is better than that towards Her Highness Morgiana and the Lady of the Lake, it will easily lead to criticism." Teresa in turn defended Ryan: "Actually, When we get along in private, Ryan is a very gentle and easy-going person, mother, don't think too much."

"You don't need to tell me what you are getting along with in private!" Aurora frowned, and she took a deep breath: "Forget it, the meetings these days have nothing left but blaming each other, and I'm tired of it, so It would be a good idea to go there to celebrate the festival. I will prepare it in the next few days. I will go with you after the meeting. It is said that Ryan is planning to help King Belegar regain the Eight Peaks Mountain. Let me see what we, mother and daughter, can gain from it. What."

"Um."

…………I am the dividing line to recover Bafeng Mountain…………

Time passed quickly, and as preparations accelerated, the time came to the end of November.

Several luxuriously decorated carriages were welcomed into the farm in Red Fish Village.

The whole body of the carriage is engraved with the Holy Grail pattern, the golden fleur-de-lis pattern and Lane's family coat of arms. At this time, Lane's family coat of arms changed again. As he became Duke of Mousilon, his family coat of arms besides the Holy Grail, In addition to the sword passing through the book and the red and white coat of arms, the black fleur-de-lis and yellow coat of arms inherited from Landuin are added, as well as a ducal crown and ribbon.

As soon as the carriage stopped, a small figure opened the curtain. He was wearing a standard noble dress and opened his legs excitedly: "Uncle Angron! Uncle Angron! I'm coming!"

"Devon Hill! Slow down, be careful not to fall!" Sulia poked her head out of the carriage, and her mother said anxiously: "Don't run so fast!"

"Hey, hey, good nephew." Angron stood at the entrance of the village. When he saw his nephew running towards him unsteadily, Angron's face was filled with a loving smile. He stretched out his big hand and scooped it up gently, then held little Devonshire directly in his hand and brought it to him: "Do you know how to come and play with uncle? Come on, call uncle, uncle will take you to see the puppies and big cats, okay? ah!"

"Okay! Uncle Angron, I want to see the puppy and the big cat!" Little Devon Hill was very excited and waved his little fist. I don't know why, but the little guy was particularly close to Angron and liked coming here very much. Angron is playing here.

"Haha." Ryan got off the carriage. He noticed that Belegar, the king of the Eight Peaks Mountain, also arrived with several Angrond-sworn personal guards. His wife Komanik and his son arrived.

Angron happened to put down little Devonshire. The little boy was very polite when he saw Belegar's appearance. He said loudly: "Hello, Mr. Belegar, your beard is so beautiful today!"

"Oh, I also think my beard is very beautiful." Belegar shook his head and was very proud. He touched his white beard and pretended to be serious: "Well, little Devon Hill, look at my white beard. You should What did you call me?"

"Hmm~" Little Devonshire was troubled for a while. He thought for a long time and said, "Grandpa Belegar?"

"Hey!" Belega laughed, and he stretched out his hands to hug the little boy: "Scream again?"

"Grandpa Belegar!" Little Devonshire was so excited that he got the correct answer that he didn't even realize what was happening.

Ryan: "???"

Angron: "???"
