The Dragon Princess Who Traveled Through Another World - Chapter 133
Chapter 133 An old friend visits
As Charlie expected.
These aristocratic women are exactly the families that Frye had revealed to her before, in the House of Lords, for her ‘crazy calling’.
In the current customs of the empire, the best way out for girls from noble families is marriage.
Therefore, there is also a popular saying in the upper class.
【No woman born in a noble family can marry ‘Love’. 】
If not for what Charlie did.
The women of these great nobles sitting in Utopia today, although they are unwilling, most of them will not do anything out of the ordinary.
But, Charlie’s appearance, what she did was like a torch in the night.
When it is ignited, it will start a prairie fire.
The young ladies of these nobles looked at each of them in bright clothes.
But in fact the situation… is really worrying.
Marriage is like gambling. What kind of life you will live after you marry depends on your face.
Of course, I really can’t get by, so let’s refer to Ray Teigrin’s wife.
But the premise is that try not to cause wars that will affect the whole country, otherwise the emperor will have to report to the gallows with an edict.
Then if these young ladies don’t marry, will they be able to keep their family property?
According to the imperial system, heirs must be male descendants, if there is no direct male heir.
Then, according to imperial law, female direct descendants still have no inheritance rights.
Nobles can only find a suitable male heir from distant relatives within three generations.
There are also those who do not hesitate to marry their daughters to distant relatives, and there are countless things like this.
What should I do if I can’t find my distant relatives?
Sorry, it can only be confiscated.
As for titles and fiefdoms… For the empire, these are scarce goods.
As long as there is a war, the nobility will be entrusted for military exploits. The title of nobility can be thrown out by the emperor at will, but the land is limited.
Therefore, it makes sense for the empire to be so harsh and unreasonable in this regard.
If female descendants have the right to inherit, then the nobility of the empire will continue unabated.
Internal conflicts will become more intense and accumulate to a certain extent, directly shaking the rule of the emperor.
This is why Charlie accepted it as soon as he saw it, and did not fight the old emperor to the end.
It’s about other people’s world, it’s driving people to a hurry, and I’m fighting you to the death.
The empire can ignore the charging knights as human beings.
But Charlie is very distressed about this little ‘possession’ in his hands!
It’s true, Charlie, who thought he was also a hard-hearted man, decided to meet the young ladies in front of him…
Seeing these beautiful ladies chasing Utopia one by one in disgrace, but none of them gave up halfway, the decision in her heart quietly changed.
Helplessly chuckled, he was still too soft-hearted, and he couldn’t bear this little battle.
Thinking, Charlie has already taken out the whiteboard dedicated to the ‘small classroom’, and put it in front of a group of dazed young ladies.
Charlie coughed lightly.
“Since it’s a tea party, I’ll just chat with you~ You can just listen to it~”
“This story also starts with a friend I know…”
As he spoke, Charlie began to habitually write and draw on his hands.
From the perspective of a bystander, she briefly described how the “friend I knew” was helpless at the time, and ran to the wilderness of the empire with two hundred gold coins.
Of course, talking about these is not for the purpose of “selling miserable” here.
Draw a circle at the key point, ‘land replacement’.
“I mean, if I know another group of friends who have the same distress and can persuade the elders in the family, it is better to move the territory to the vicinity of my friend.”
Among the noble girls present here, some are shrewd, and of course some are confused.
It’s just that, no matter how hard you are, you won’t interrupt Charlie’s speech at this time to get to the bottom of it.
Looking at the charcoal pen, countless small circles were drawn on Charlie’s small whiteboard.
The gathering of small circles actually split nearly one-fifth of the western coast of the empire.
From Beira to the Blue Mine Mountains.
Because Ray Teigrin has run to the border of silver treason.
So, the coastline in the west of the Blue Mine Mountains that he guards is still blank.
Charlie simply drew a map of the boundary on the whiteboard with a few strokes, and said:
“This is roughly what I mean. You see, another group of friends I know, their plight is that they hold a lot of good fiefdoms.”
“Then, their relatives will oppose them because they are greedy for these properties and stand on the side of the imperial policy.
The monarchs of their country, in order to reclaim the land and reduce the “redundant” nobles, will naturally bite them. “
”Wealth is tempting, but if you can’t protect it yourself, keeping it by your side can only bring disaster.
I can think of a way, and there is only this way of ‘putting it to death and reviving it’. “
“Everyone, have you ever seen a gecko?”
”When this small animal is attacked by natural enemies, it will take off its own tail and give it to the enemy to eat.”
The more Christine listened, the brighter her eyes became.
Her hands couldn’t help shaking slightly.
One word awakens the dreamer!
She will definitely go! Sacrifice everything, and exchange the fief next to Utopia!
If those properties are destined not to fall into their hands, then what is the use of keeping them? !
Because of that distant relative who was recently brought back by his father and always looked at them like a nouveau riche? !
Ah! Let you not get a single copper plate!
“Mr…Miss Violet! I have a question…”
“Please tell me, this beautiful lady.” Charlie smiled and looked at this noble lady who was very close to her.
“Christine, my name is Christine Aifa!”
The noble girl took a deep breath before continuing: “That’s right, it might have been easy to switch to Bei… your friend.”
“However, things are very different now.
Your friend is not in the same situation as he used to be.
The land she is on is not so barren and cheap.
I doubt if the surrounding nobles will exchange land with another wave of your friends. “
Charlie smiled and said, “This is the second question I want to talk about.”
“So, when the problem cannot be solved peacefully, what should we do?”
“Ah… an analogy, hehe, pay attention, I’m just an analogy…
If, the old neighbors near my “friend” have dragon disasters on their land every now and then…
You said, would they still cling to those flattened lands?
Cough, after all, in this world, encountering a dragon disaster or something is just like encountering a thunderstorm when going out, it is very normal, isn’t it? “
Silver Dragon and Black Dragon: “…”
Desperate!
For this kind of thing, Charlie will not find Antanalon, after all, the green dragon who has just loyal to her, can’t just eat and wait to die all day, can’t he?
After that, there was another burst of crazy ‘remedial lessons’.
I don’t know when, these aristocratic ladies each had a ‘small notebook’, frantically recording every word Charlie said.
This scene is so similar to the brainwashed goblin…
Fortunately, after talking so much, there are still gains.
When these ladies came, they were all in a nervous mood.
When I left, it was like releasing a hundred chirping birds!
Charlie just pointed out a thing or two.
As for how things are done, it depends on how these girls themselves and their fathers who can really make decisions in their families make decisions.
She is not naive, she thinks that the girls who come here today can persuade the family to ‘sell’ their wealthy fief.
Standing on top of the White Castle, Charlie watched as the Dragonborn sent the girls away.
The corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly, she stretched out her hand to shave the head of the little black dragon on her shoulder, “I hope these girls can become my new neighbors smoothly!”
“Hey, that’s all I can do.”
Whether it is the black dragon or the silver dragon, they only think that Charlie has some sympathy for these female nobles because of his previous rough fate.
Only at this time will I make a point or two.
However, only Charlie himself understands…
What kind of expectations did she have for this move of “leisure chess”.
…
After nearly ten days of wandering, Utopia returned to Beira safely.
The “Blue Sky Project” has been tested by such a round-trip journey, and it can be regarded as a complete success.
The research direction of the dwarves is aimed at how to ensure the safety of the people in the city to the greatest extent if the floating city is about to fall again.
You can’t point to just a few dragons every time something happens, and save the scene instantly, right?
As for Charlie’s trip, it is not accurate to say that it shocked the whole world.
Not so long ago, the Shadow Demiplane was ‘connected’ to the world.
A mysterious visitor hidden in the shadows embarked on the road to the ideal land.
Dreamland returns to the second day of the Beira coastline.
This black-robed visitor who was swaying and wasted a lot of time on the road finally walked to the gate of the ‘New City’ under the Floating Void City.
Unless necessary, most of the ideal township residents still live in the new city.
Even if the top of a mountain was cut, with the expansion of the population, the area outside the floating city is becoming less and less enough.
Recently, several town hall meetings were held, discussing how to solve the shortage of land in the floating city.
It also talks about the folding space, and it also talks about connecting the space of different planes.
Even, several arcanists proposed to cut off a few more mountains, float them into the sky, and connect them to Utopia.
Create a few satellite cities…
In short, all kinds of opinions gave Charlie a headache.
A recent town hall meeting where she decided to take some time off work.
When Scotch is almost finished, she will go to sign something…
Well, let’s do it!
At the breakfast table, Charlie habitually picked up a piece of bread spread with honey and butter, and opened the “Goblin Friday Special” with both hands to read.
The black dragon who has no interest in anything is occasionally interested in goblin gossip.
Looking, watching, the black dragon would tilt his head and take a bite of the bread Charlie was holding.
One person and one dragon just like this, eating the same piece of bread, and flipping through the newspapers are inexplicably harmonious.
But at this moment, Charlie suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing.
People who were talking in low voices at the dining table shuddered.
Everyone looked in one direction in tacit understanding.
Even Charlie stood up from the main seat in shock.
Eris, the mentor of Eris came out of his ‘autistic’ room? !
Eris stared in one direction, those empty eye sockets jumping with the blue soul fire, as if he was looking at someone through countless obstacles.
“Charlie, come out with me to meet an important visitor.”
Eris spoke in a flat tone.
Sounds almost indistinguishable from ‘drink a glass of water’.
Charlie was surprised.
Can make the mentor who has been closed for so long walk out of the room on his own initiative…
Who is this?
Subconsciously, Charlie looked at Bai Qiangwei.
Sure enough, Bai Qiangwei, who stepped into the legendary realm, frowned slightly.
She also looked in the direction where Eris was staring.
“Who’s here, mentor?” Charlie couldn’t help asking curiously.
The two mentors answered her question in unison.
“It is 【Death】.”
“I’ll go too.” Bai Qiangwei narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly.
Eris glanced at her.
Even though she was ‘forcibly demolished’ by Bai Qiangwei many times, compared to before she was alive, Eris really won’t admit cowardice in front of Bai Qiangwei.
Even after the ‘reunion’, Eris rarely has his arms and legs complete.
But the deceased’s lack of emotion can make him reject the rude request made by the other party without hesitation in front of Bai Qiangwei.
“This is my private matter, please don’t interfere.”
Charlie: “…”
…
The man covered in a black cloak simply sat cross-legged on the ground, looking up at Utopia above the sky.
A gust of wind blew by, and the visitor shrouded in the ‘shadow’ let out a long sigh, “Hey…”.
“Long time no see, Edward.”
The black-robed visitor sitting cross-legged on the ground heard Eris’ cold voice behind him.
Super Lich took off his hood, revealing his white skull.
“I feel the same breath, the unclean breath of the dead.
So, Eris, have you finally taken that step? “
At this time, standing behind Edward was Eris, and Charlie who was just beside him, who was afraid to speak because of excessive fear.
“Those who walk side by side with death will eventually turn into death.” This is the truth.
Eris said calmly.
Edward chuckled for a while.
“In the past, you sneered at this sentence…” Edward said retorting words, and turned his head.
As a result, the entire Lich was stunned.
Charlie starts looking at the tops of his feet.
Eris looked back at Edward indifferently.
After five seconds of silence, Edward tilted his white skull and asked Charlie who was standing beside Erris.
“Is putting an ax on the skull of a lich a popular decoration in Utopia this year?”
Charlie: “…”
No! we are not! we do not have!
Eris noticed the thing above his head.
He pulled out the tomahawk stuck on the bone as if nothing had happened, threw it away, and continued talking with Edward.
“Are you here to ask me to fulfill the agreement?”
Edward’s soul fire was still staring at the tomahawk that had been thrown aside.
“Ah, that’s not true. Something happened on our side. If you’re doing well here, stay here forever.”
“By the way, is White Rose here?” Edward, who had been staring at the battle ax, suddenly remembered something, and asked.
Eris stared at Edward for three seconds, and confirmed that this guy didn’t come here on purpose, just to taunt him face to face, so he replied indifferently:
“What happened to you? It’s not your style to give up the agreement between you and me for no reason.”
Edward’s attention was finally diverted by Eris.
“Hey, not everyone has such good luck and ability. They were able to keep their Utopia in the last battle of gods.”
“City of the Dead…” The fire of soul in Eris’ eye sockets was flickering.
“It’s still there, but… hehe, maybe for this plane, the city of the dead is no longer there.”
Eris frowned and racked his brains, but he couldn’t imagine how Edward could keep the City of the Dead under such conditions.
“Curious? If you are curious, I can tell you.” Edward said in a playful tone.
Eris was about to answer the call, but Edward said again: “Just tell me, if the ax on your head was hacked by White Rose, and I will tell you about the City of the Dead.”
Eris stared at Edward with a blank face.
Charlie: “…”
It’s so hard for me to make a quiet background!
“Hey, forget it, my prayers are really useless, you look so boring~ You see, we are all dead, if you don’t make a few jokes, wouldn’t life be more boring?”
Edward was talking to himself.
“Actually, it’s nothing. The magic net was sealed by the goddess of magic at that time. Ion stone, arcane art, Mythra’s core, and even the magician’s magic were all silent.
Unless there is an absolutely powerful force, at that time, only a miracle can save a floating city. “
The soul fire in Eris’ eye sockets suddenly burned violently.
“You…you prayed to the gods?!”
His tone of voice was no longer flat.
Although Charlie didn’t know what it meant, her mentor, since he became like this ghost…
Even being split in the head with an ax by Teacher Bai Qiangwei, he didn’t wait to blink.
At this time, the tone of the speech has changed.
“Hey, yes. The City of the Dead is now floating in the Shadow Demiplane.
It’s okay to get there.
When the two ladies of light and darkness fought each other, our great goddess Shar ‘copied’ the world here.
In short, we still have the ‘magic net’ over there, or the ‘shadow magic net’ to be precise.
Mythra’s Core is barely usable.
Hey, the price, you have seen it too~ It’s nothing, but we are already the ‘running dogs’ of Shar, the goddess of darkness, hahahaha~
Ah, I hope you don’t go to the Goddess of Light, Su Lun, otherwise we may die forever.
It’s rare that you are the junior I value. If possible, I don’t want to dig all over the world to find your phylactery.
Why do liches make things difficult for liches, you say yes, my dear~”
Eris did not speak for a long time.
I think Edward’s words shocked him greatly.
Of course Edward didn’t come here to chat with Eris.
“Can you trade this technology of your Floating Void City to me?” Edward looked at Charlie behind Eris.
He left Eris alone in silence, and talked directly to Charlie, who could make a decision on this matter.
Charlie tilted his head, smiled awkwardly, and then greeted Edward.
“Hello, long time no see, Mr. Super Lich!”
“Hehe, unexpectedly, you are a beautiful young lady.
When I first saw the report, I was so surprised that my jaw was dislocated!
Hello, Miss Charlie. ‘ Edward would smile softly.
Thank you for your votes~ヽ(°▽°)ノ
Let’s go here first today~(づ ̄3 ̄)づ
