After a series of offensives, although the empire's war against Karthus has achieved decisive victories on multiple fronts, it is not far from the end of this long-established country, but it was time to go all out and lead a large number of troops to fight again. The imperial army approaching the city of Karthus suddenly withdrew their forces strangely, and just entrenched in a large military fortress that originally belonged to Karthus just over forty miles away from the city of Karthus. I know what I'm thinking.

And if, at this time, if there is an eagle knight from Karthus who ventures here to investigate here, it is not difficult to find that at this time, the surroundings of this fortress are full of tents and camps, large and small, directly covering the area. The entire huge fortress is guarded in the middle. Judging from the formation, there are at least 100,000 troops!

At the same time, if they could investigate a little more carefully, they would also find that on the fortress in the middle, apart from the flags representing the Reckart Empire and Emperor Barnhardt's camp, there were also The wind fluttered the cyan battle flag representing the Azure Dragon Knights, the blue flag representing the Ice Dragon Legion, the red flag representing the Yanlong Infantry Regiment, and the black mage flag representing the Black Dragon Magisters?

Since there are so many flags planted on the top of this military fortress, there is no doubt that it must represent that Emperor Barnhardt of the Reckart Empire and the most important commanders of the four major armies under his command have gathered at this time. Here it comes.

In fact it is true!

Because ah, at this time, in the deepest part of that fortress, in that hall covered with imperial flags and carpets, and a fireplace burning for warmth, the emperor of the empire, Barnhardt, is sitting on his throne, talking with his subordinates. The four powerful fighters had a meeting with Egbert, Leon, Vargas and Imelda to discuss something.

"Eggbert!"

"You are a mage, the leader of the Black Dragon Magister Group, tell me, what happened to that floating island?"

"Who made it?!"

In the hall, Vargas directly opened his voice, yelling with some annoyance.

It turned out that the reason why the empire suddenly pulled back its forces and stood still was because of the giant floating city that appeared on the border between the original Karthus and the empire, that is, in the hinterland of the empire's territory now?

"..."

Egbert didn't answer, just sat in his seat with a sullen face and didn't say a word.

Obviously, he didn't seem to know who made that floating island, that thing that appeared behind the main force of the empire.

But anyway, all he knew was that Tisreo was still lying on the construction site, and the mages of that magic kingdom hadn't finished it yet.

"Leon!"

"Where are the soldiers who went to investigate?"

"Still none came back?!"

Seeing that Egbert didn't speak, he paused, and Imelda of the Ice Dragon Legion asked.

"No!"

"Several batches of eagle knights were dispatched, and even a group of royal griffins, but they all never returned!"

Leon shook his head slowly.

It was precisely because the investigation could not find out why, their plan to attack Karthus had to be shelved. After all, they would not rest assured that when they were fighting in the front, there would be a sudden attack floating in the sky behind them. I don't care about the floating island that is in trouble.

Don't look at the opponent who is just floating on the border between the original empire and Karthus, and there is no movement for the time being, but once the opponent suddenly floats towards the capital or hinterland of the empire, the fun will be great!

"it's useless."

"Although we don't know which faction it belongs to yet, but to make such a floating island float there, their power is not something that our empire's air force can break through."

"At least, there must be that kind of large-scale ancient magic weapon to transport the troops up."

"but…"

"At present, our empire does not have that kind of weapon. Although I know that there are many places, it is not so easy to repair it, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive."

Without waiting for Imelda to ask again or complaining to Leon, Egbert, who had been silent just now, directly expressed his point of view.

"Then there's no way."

"Magic can't detect, and it's seriously disturbed. When you approach the reconnaissance, you never return, and you can't hit it. What else can you do?"

"We can only continue to wait and see."

After a pause, Imelda finally just sighed, and sat in her position with her arms crossed resentfully, without saying a word.

"alright!"

"Stop talking about those things!"

"Well, Vargas, I heard that Alisa bore you a daughter, right?"

"what is her name?"

Seeing that his favorite generals had nothing to do, and neither did he, the emperor Barnhardt, who didn't want to continue to toss, suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"Her name is Emilia!"

"Alyssa gave it to me."

Unexpectedly, the emperor still cared about his family affairs, so Vargas hurriedly replied with a cheerful smile.

"Emilia?"

"Well…"

"Yes, it's a good name!"

Emperor Barnhardt, who was sitting on the throne, nodded.

"Vargas, it's a good sign that your daughter Emilia is born at this time!"

"Or else!"

"I bestowed on her the title of Princess of the Empire, and then I gave her the border area of ​​Karthus that your Yanlong Corps took down before as her territory. What do you think?"

Then, after thinking about it, Barnhardt also suggested with a cheerful smile.

"ah!"

"Your Majesty, is it really possible?"

Vargas stared round his eyes, and turned his head to look at Barnhardt on the throne in disbelief.

"Very good!"

"Then I will thank Your Majesty for your gift on Emilia's behalf!"

Then, the bald-headed Vargas was also unambiguous, and without waiting for the other party to repent or think about it, he agreed with a cheerful smile.

After all, the commanders of the four major armies are all here now, and if they can testify to him, even if their emperor wants to repent later, it may be too late, too late.

"It's really enviable..."

"Vargas, your family not only has an extra daughter, but also an imperial princess. Even I'm a little jealous..."

At this time, the Ice Dragon Legion on the side, the female general Imelda who has always been cruel and ruthless, also started to tease with a smile.

"or…"

"After the war is over, go back and let me be your daughter's teacher, let me teach her the knowledge of magic, and let her become a powerful imperial magic princess. What do you think of this proposal?"

Then, Imelda proposed on the spot the idea of ​​being a teacher for Vargas' daughter, the first princess of the empire.

"ah?"

Vargas was a little dumbfounded, not knowing why Imelda was suddenly so enthusiastic that he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Ahem!"

"Imelda, I remember..."

"I seem to be the head of the Imperial Magisters, right?"

"To teach magic to an imperial princess, no matter what, I, an old man, should do it for me, right?"

At this time, Egbert, who was still frowning and thinking about military affairs just now, suddenly spoke.

He just did his part to tease and ridicule Imelda in his capacity as the number one mage of the empire and the head of the Black Dragon Magister Legion.

"you?"

"How many years do you have to live, old man?"

"Besides, Emilia is the princess of the empire. How inconvenient is it for you, a bad old man, to teach her?"

Imelda glanced at Egbert, and sarcastically sarcastically.

That's right, her magic knowledge and power are indeed inferior to Egbert, the bad old man who once studied under the old legendary great magician Jessica, but she is better than being young, and she is still a woman, It is much more convenient than Egbert to guide an imperial princess.

"No…"

"The knowledge and domain of magic is too vast. If you want to get a glimpse of the true meaning of magic, you should be the teacher who has mastered it, instead of distinguishing between men and women."

"Imelda, you are still too young, you still have a long way to go on the road of magic."

The old **** Egbert was talking, and without leaving a trace, he sneered at the fact that the other party's knowledge was not good enough, his attainments in the field of magic were so-so, and he was not suitable to be a teacher.

"you!"

After listening, Imelda couldn't help feeling a little anxious, but she didn't know where to refute it.

"Hey!"

"You two, stop arguing!"

"I think…"

"I, the strongest knight in the continent, is barely qualified to guide an imperial princess. Maybe, I can teach her to be an imperial knight of integrity, honor and faith?"

Seeing that the two were still arguing, Leon, the leader of the Azure Dragon Knights, thought about it for a while, and stepped in, as if he also planned to compete for the qualification to be the teacher of the first princess of the empire.

"ah?"

"Ha ha ha ha…."

"Leon, you actually plan to send a noble imperial princess to charge on horseback?"

"Are you crazy?"

However, as soon as Leon finished speaking, Imelda laughed and mocked unscrupulously.

"Well…"

"I also feel wrong..."

Egbert also followed suit.

He also felt that it was really not a good idea to ask an imperial princess to practice that kind of chivalry. After all, women's strength and physique are always somewhat different from men's, and it will be very difficult to learn. Not directly proportional to the return.

"But!"

"What if Princess Emilia inherits Vargas' physique?"

"In that case, wouldn't it be good to practice the way of knights?"

Leon waved his hand indifferently.

And I think his proposal and guess just now are very good, and if he really has an imperial princess as a knight apprentice, especially if the other party is the daughter of his friend Vargas, then he will definitely be willing to spend all his money. If you give it to each other, it will definitely make the other party the most powerful female knight on this continent!

"Inherit Vargas' physique?"

"this…"

Imelda subconsciously made up the appearance of a muscular bald woman in her mind.

Then, she shivered uncontrollably, and turned her head awkwardly to look at Egbert silently, exchanging and reaching a certain consensus.

"Well…"

"I think what the first princess of the empire wants to learn should be based on her hobbies. Let's not make a hasty decision?"

Apparently, as a mage, Egbert seemed to have tacitly thought of a certain picture he had just made up with Imelda, so he suddenly changed his mind. Smooth schoolgirls, especially without identifying each other's talents.

"That's right!"

"We should wait for her to grow up before seeking her opinion. Anyway, there are still several years left, so we don't need to rush."

"Leon, what do you think?"

Seeing Egbert retreat, Imelda of course also followed suit.

"I?"

"I don't care!"

"Vargas, what do you think, are you okay?"

Leon didn't seem to know why the two mages suddenly reached a consensus. He first glanced at the two inexplicably. He didn't know why the two suddenly changed their minds, so he hesitated for a while, and then looked at Vargas .

"Opinion?"

"no!"

"Of course I have an opinion!"

Finally, seeing these guys who made decisions for their daughters without asking themselves and finally realized that he was the father of the person involved, Vargas stood up and shouted.

"My daughter Emilia, I think she will inherit all my good character and strong physique, and she must also have a firm will and lofty beliefs!"

"so!"

"At that time, I will give priority to teaching her personally, so that she can become a strong fighter!"

Fearing that his precious daughter would be snatched away, Vargas hurriedly patted his strong chest and said, and decided the future path for his daughter.

"ah?"

"Vargas..."

"As a woman, I think it's okay to talk about character and will, but it's better for Emilia not to inherit your physique?"

After a moment of hesitation, Imelda still had to express her point of view with a little tact.

"What's the meaning?"

"Why can't you inherit my physique?"

Vargas touched his big bald head, wondering why Imelda said that.

Apparently ~lightnovelpub.net~ he never thought it would be bad for his daughter to have a physique as strong as himself in the future.

"never mind!"

"Just pretend I didn't say anything!"

Imelda slapped her forehead, then turned away resentfully.

"Everyone."

"It's getting late..."

"Since we can't think of a way to fight against that floating island for the time being, and His Majesty has not yet made a final decision, then everyone should adjourn the meeting and go back to rest!"

At this time, after the chat was over, Egbert stood up considerately when he saw that Barnhardt on the throne gradually showed a tired look on his face, and announced the end of today's meeting.
