Extraordinary Rise: Starting Contract with the Silver Dragon Countess

Chapter 297 A Day Trip to the Grand Duchess's Palace
The moment the last tone rose, all the officials present clearly felt a pressure that was enough to shake their souls!

Longwei!

The combined might of the contracted dragon and Asuna's own dragon bloodline made the officials feel as if a huge rock was pressing on their hearts.

Political Officer Fulun replied with a stiff upper lip:

"Your Highness, it wasn't completely destroyed. The guards discovered it in time and saved most of it!"

Grand Duke Iliad sneered:
"So, I still want to reward you?"

There was deathly silence in the hall.

"Commander!"

Beor Angryn stepped out and replied with his head lowered:
"Your Highness."

"Has anyone been caught?"

Beo said carefully:

"They were captured, but most of them are from the Kingdom of Ceylon, and are involved in diplomatic affairs..."

The Duke interrupted Beor coldly:

"Kill them all."

Fulun's expression changed slightly, and he advised:

"Your Highness, according to customary practice, the disposition of foreigners must first be reported to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who will then consult with the country's special envoy to Aifeiyin before any further action is taken."

Grand Duke Iliad looked at Leif Zion, the stationmaster of the Southern Border Station, with a cold expression and said indifferently:

"What do you say?"

Leif chuckled and replied:

"Your Highness, these refugees are country bumpkins who have never seen the world. They recklessly consumed the looted oak spirit, and were all killed in the prison by the violent magic."

A look of satisfaction appeared on Grand Duke Iliad's face:

"Very good, I will commend you to His Majesty.

Hurry and do it.”

Leif bowed slightly, glanced at Foren beside him, and felt a little proud in his heart.

What a bunch of blockheads. No matter how powerful Her Highness the Grand Duke is, she is still a woman. How could she not take revenge when the things her lover gave her were destroyed?

You deserve to be scolded all day long for insisting on sticking to those rigid rules.

Political Officer Foren and Commander Beo glanced at Leif at the same time, a trace of fear rising in their hearts.

They are truly worthy of being the Military Control Commission that makes the entire northwest continent tremble in fear. They are ruthless and cruel in their actions, with black hands and black hearts.

Stay away from this guy in the future, or he might trick you at any time.

After this brief interlude, Grand Duke Iliad returned to business. She looked at Fulun again, her tone softening considerably:
"Political Officer, how is the resettlement work going in Mist Heart Province?"

The Mist Heart Province is a province in the southern border adjacent to the Kingdom of Ceylon. It is also the place that Cohen and Jialin discussed for the Star Tribe to temporarily settle down.

When Cohen officially takes action against the Kingdom of Ceylon, this place will become the base camp for the Star Tribe to attack the Kingdom of Ceylon.

The first group of Star Tribe members who migrated to the Mist Heart Province were not numerous, only a few tens of thousands.

However, the two sides are allies after all, and Cohen is now the Holy Son of the Star Tribe, so it is not easy for him to treat his "people" badly.

In order to allow them to settle down better in the Mist Heart Province, Cohen meant to let the nobles and officials who were originally in power in the Mist Heart Province move out and move to the richer East Territory or simply come directly to the royal capital.

The resistance will definitely be great. Many nobles have been rooted in Wuxin Province for generations. Even if various favorable conditions are promised, a considerable number of nobles are still unwilling to move.

However, under the strong hand of Grand Duke Iliad, this matter is still progressing smoothly.

This matter was personally assigned by Cohen. Asuna took it very seriously and asked about the progress almost every day.

Fulun had obviously made preparations long ago. In order to make up for the bad impression of "lack of ability" he had previously given to the Grand Duke, he did his homework on this matter:
"Your Highness, it can be said that it is basically completed.

Thirty thousand people have already been resettled in Wuxin Province."

In order to conceal the truth, they claimed that these people were all citizens of Grand Duke Iliad's original territory.

Everyone knows that Grand Duke Iliad was originally a small noble in the Central Empire, so it is normal for him to have tens of thousands of subjects in his territory.

The Duke said:
“Okay, that’s well done.

From now on, we in the Southern Territory will not interfere in the defense, taxation, economy, politics, etc. of the Mist Heart Province, and will allow them to be completely autonomous."

This matter had been discussed before, and no one had any objections.

Immediately afterwards, government officials from various departments and provincial governors began to report on their work.

When the last Governor General finished his daily work, Asuna waved her hand slightly and said:
"I called everyone here today because I have another important announcement!"

She sat back on the throne, her bony white hands lightly tapped the gilded armrests, tapped her cane, and said loudly:

"From today on, the entire Southern Territory will enter... Level 1 combat readiness!"

The Grand Duke's voice was like a huge rock smashing into the calm surface of a lake. The entire hall was initially silent as death. After everyone digested the message of this command, a low murmur of discussion suddenly arose.

Level 1 combat readiness status?
What the hell is going on? Is the southern border going to rebel again?

That's not right. If the Grand Duke has any objections to His Majesty, why not just not let him go to bed? Is there any need for rebellion?
However, soon some clever officials, seeing the calm expressions on the faces of Administrative Officer Foren, Commander Beo and the head of the Military Control Station who were in the front row, suddenly thought of something and became even more shocked.

Rebellion is impossible, so the only direction for war preparations in the south is another one - the Kingdom of Ceylon!
Are we going to go to war with the Kingdom of Ceylon?
How can this be?

Not to mention Eifin's current strength, the ban of the five empires and the interference of the International League alone determine that Eifin cannot attack its neighbors openly.

Back then, even the actions against the Silver Frost Principality and the Holy Oak Principality were carried out in secret. Now, are they going to fight a decisive battle with the Kingdom of Ceylon in a big way?
However, Asuna's authority had long been an unshakable mountain in the hearts of the officials in the Southern Territory. Although everyone still had doubts in their hearts, they still obeyed the orders of the Grand Duke.

The following are the various control policies that will be implemented in the southern border after entering the first level of combat readiness, as announced by Administrative Officer Foren and Commander Beo.

The lengthy meeting lasted from day to dusk. Most of the people present were extraordinary people and did not feel tired.

Finally, with Beo's last arrangement in place, His Royal Highness the Grand Duke stood up from the throne, glanced at the officials, and said coldly:

"Everything I arrange today must be completed within a month. If you can't do it, I will resign!"

"Yes!"

"The meeting is dismissed!"

The officials left one by one, and Asuna signaled her maid to carry a thick stack of documents and walk towards the bedroom.

The Grand Duke's bedroom is just behind the Council Hall. It has a small study area where Asuna often reviews documents before going to bed.

……

Suddenly, a subtle spatial fluctuation appeared in the Grand Duke's bedroom.

Cohen showed up, and a fresh fragrance filled his nostrils.

He looked around and almost didn't recognize it. After not having been there for a few months, Asuna's bedroom had completely changed. The whole bedroom was filled with an atmosphere of elegance and luxury.

The most eye-catching thing is the large four-poster bed in the center of the bedroom, which is made entirely of mahogany. The headboard is carved with intricate patterns, the curtains are made of light lace and silk, and the bed is covered with soft velvet.

Um...changed the bed?

Not bad, very obedient. Regarding Asuna's bed, Coen had suggested to her before, hoping to replace it with a bigger and stronger one.

Cohen himself has a golden body, and Asuna is of dragon-controlling blood. When the two of them are in the mood, the bed will inevitably become a victim.

Cohen sat on the new bed and felt the comfort of it. He also smelled two different scents. In addition to Asuna's scent, it seemed that Rosalina had also slept here?

He secretly thought that with such a big bed, it wouldn't be crowded for three people to sleep together.

Cohen stood up and looked around the bedroom.

Not far away, by the window, there was an exquisite dressing table filled with various perfume bottles and jewelry made of gold and silver.

Seeing this familiar dressing table, Cohen was sure that he had come to the right place.

This was the one he had stolen from Grace's "Flaming Lips" business and given to Asuna. There was also a piece of the same style in Adele's bedroom.

On the other side of the bedroom is the rest area, furnished with several soft velvet sofas and a coffee table. On the coffee table are exquisite porcelain and crystal wine glasses, with an opened bottle of red wine next to it.

Next to the rest area is a small study area. On the bookshelf are various books related to Dragon Tamer Warriors that Cohen gave to Asuna, as well as some handwritten manuscripts of training techniques.

On the desk were quills, ink bottles, and some exquisite artworks, most of which were small gadgets that Cohen gave to Asuna from time to time.

In addition, there were several thick stacks of documents placed in a conspicuous place. Cohen walked over and flipped through them. They were all documents that had not been reviewed yet.

Seeing Asuna's beautiful handwriting on the document, a hint of apology appeared in Cohen's eyes.

A beautiful girl in her twenties, who is in her prime, should have been wearing gorgeous clothes and attending banquets and dinners in high society, enjoying the crowd's support and praise, but now she can only become a ruthless government machine.

This was the case with Adele, Asuna, and Grace in the "Lost Land" before...

I really owe so much to these girls.

Cohen felt a little sad, calmed himself down, and sorted out the documents on Asuna's desk.

……

Asuna left the Council Hall, walked through a long corridor, and entered a huge garden.

Various precious flowers are planted inside. On the surface, it is a garden, but in fact it hides a formation that can block the perception and prying of those below the legendary level.

The magic circle that Cohen and Windsardler developed from the first elven queen, Vilegis, when they were exploring the secret realm of the Sleeping Cave was used to prevent the invasion of extraordinary people below the Gold Rank.

Vilegis used the garden as a defensive magic circle for her bedroom. Cohen transplanted this kind of flower magic circle in the South Territory, Florence and the Endless Alliance.

The garden magic circle surrounds the entire Grand Duke's residence.

The maid following Asuna was one of the few people who could enter the garden magic circle. The two of them walked through the garden and arrived in front of a huge palace.

This is the Grand Duke's residence. After entering the door and passing through a complicated corridor, a gilded gate can be seen in the distance.

Asuna was about to push the door open when her expression changed and a strong surprise suddenly appeared in her eyes.

She suppressed her excitement, stroked her oval face with her hand, turned to look at the maid beside her, and asked:
"Do I look good like this now?"

The maid was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Grand Duke Iliad, who had been so majestic just now and scolded the officials of the southern border like children, suddenly asked such a question, she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

The maid looked at the impeccable face - the facial features were three-dimensional and delicate, the nose was slender and straight, and the lips were cherry blossom red. At this moment, the face no longer had the majesty it had in the hall, giving people a natural and gentle charm.

After a brief silence, he said softly:
"Your Highness, your charm is irresistible!"

Asuna slowed down her voice.

"Was I too fierce in the hall just now?

What now? "

The maid seemed to realize something and said with her head down, "Your Highness is very gentle now.

It wasn't fierce just now, it was majestic."

Asuna said:
“Give me the documents and you can go back. From now on, I won’t see anyone.

If there is anything, ask them to discuss it with Fulun and Beo."

The maid replied:

"Okay, Your Highness."

The maid handed the documents to Asuna and quickly turned and left.

After the maid walked away, Asuna could no longer suppress her excitement. She threw the red dragon wrapped around her arm to the door to guard it, and pushed the door open and walked in with the documents in her arms.

Seeing the familiar figure, Asuna threw the documents to the ground and threw herself into Cohen's arms.

Cohen hugged Asuna's delicate body and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your hard work. I saw you were in a meeting just now, so I didn't disturb you."

Asuna buried her head in Cohen's arms, greedily breathing in Cohen's scent.

The majestic Duke Iliad just now has turned into a little girl who is deeply in love:
"Sir, I missed you so much."

Cohen caressed Asuna's long chestnut hair lovingly and whispered in her ear:

"You've worked hard during this period. If you're too tired, why don't you take a rest for a while?"

Asuna raised her head, a gentle light in her hazel eyes, yet also revealed a firmness and courage, as she spoke:
"Sir, your plan is about to begin. As your knight, how can I retreat at this moment?"

Looking at Asuna's resolute face, Cohen felt a sharp impact on his heart. A fiery flame burned in his pupils, and a wicked curve formed at the corner of his mouth. His voice became a little hoarse:
"So, Miss Knight, what are you waiting for? Why don't you fulfill your knightly duties?"

……

……

……

“This crimson velvet robe suits you well, so there’s no need to take it off, just take off everything else.

Oh yes, and high heels, too."

"Ok?"

"Be obedient! A knight's first duty is to obey all the orders of His Majesty the King!"

"Sir, how about... going to bed..."

"Wait a minute, I'll check the quality of this desk for you first!"

Beautiful music began to play in Asuna's bedroom...

Asuna's body proportions are typical girlish curves, and because she inherited the dragon's powerful physical talent, her muscle lines show a balance of strength and flexibility, full of health and vitality.

Especially her barefoot legs and slender waist are so attractive. The glossy ankles contrasting with the skin create a strong visual impact.

From the desk to the sofa, from the sofa to the window, from the window to the dressing table, and finally back to the large four-poster bed.

From dusk to late night, from late night to dawn.

Cohen completed a perfect day trip to Asuna's Grand Duke's Palace.

The morning light shone through the window, casting a dazzling golden glow on Asuna's naked body.

Asuna sighed contentedly and snuggled into Cohen's arms.

Cohen suddenly thought of something and said jokingly:
"Speaking of which, why don't I see Rosalinda? I just smelled her scent on your bed. Are you two playing some sticking game behind my back?"

Asuna glanced at Cohen in a reproachful manner and said unhappily:

"Mr. has a really dirty mind.

Rosalina often goes out to catch people at night, and when she comes back late, she sleeps directly at my place.

I also said that I would renovate the room next door in a few days so that she could live there and it would be more convenient for us to handle work.

Cohen was just joking, playing with Asuna's frost ball, which was very good for sex, and asked:
"Where is she? She's not going to arrest anyone again, is she?"

Asuna replied:
"Yes, we've captured the nobleman who was married to your Corleone family.

Everyone else was afraid of being liquidated, so only Meilansha could go."

Cohen exerted a little force, causing Asuna to roll her eyes.
"What do you mean by you Corleone family? You'll have to blame us from now on!"

Asuna said with a hint of annoyance:

"I only dare to say this in front of you. Unlike that elf, I have already moved into the King's bedroom openly!"

Cohen's expression froze, and he said:

"Your intelligence work is quite good."

Asuna hummed softly, twisted her slender waist and got up from Cohen's arms, walked barefoot to a pile of scattered clothes not far away, dug out a communication stone, and sent a message.

Cohen asked:

"what happened?"

Asuna said:
"Notify Meilansha to come back. If she knew I ate all the food alone, she would probably hate me even more."

Cohen blinked and said:
"I suddenly had a good idea. This bed is so big, it seems that three people can..."

Before he could finish his words, Asuna threw clothes at his head.

Asuna got up and began to clean the marks on her body, especially the lip marks on several private parts, which made the dragon lady feel helpless and admired.

With his current physical strength, it was quite impressive that Cohen could leave such a deep mark just with his mouth.

Finally, Asuna finished packing, changed into formal clothes, and transformed into the dignified and majestic Grand Duke Iliad of the Southern Territory again.

Cohen asked curiously:
"Do you have any official business to attend to today?"

Asuna said:
"I'm going to Wuxin Province to hand over my work.

Sir, now that you and Meilansha are done, come along too. After all, you are now the Holy Son of the Star Tribe!"

A hint of understanding flashed in Cohen's eyes, and he said with a smile:

"You really don't want to stay together?

I think with your physique, you can handle another round without any problem!"

Asuna blushed slightly and said softly:
"Mr. is good in every way, except that he is sometimes too frivolous. I'm leaving now."

As he said this, he came to Cohen, leaned over and gave him a deep kiss, then left the bedroom.

Cohen checked the time. With Rosalina's half-step legendary strength, it wouldn't take long for her to get here. He quickly stood up and cleaned up the traces of last night's battle.

Not long after the tidying up, a beautiful figure rushed into the bedroom.

There was a hint of resentment in Rosalina's clear blue eyes. She walked towards Cohen with her slender legs wrapped in black stockings and high-heeled boots.

Before Cohen could say hello, Rosalina took off her combat boots and kicked Cohen in the vitals with her black silk-wrapped feet.

Cohen quickly held Meilansha's feet and said with a wry smile:

"Sasha, there's no need to show off your good figure as soon as we meet."

Meilansha snorted coldly and said:

"You have no conscience, and you still come to me!"

Cohen exerted force on his hands, pulled Rosalina into his arms, and said softly:

"I'm really too busy. Look, I just came to see you after returning from the Northwest Sea."

Meilansha slapped Cohen's big hand that was trying to get into her collar and asked:
"busy?

Are you busy getting engaged to that elf?"

Cohen looked slightly embarrassed and said in a low voice:
"I haven't seen you for so long. I miss my Sasha so much. Can we talk about this later?"

Cohen's tender offensive was effective. Faced with her lover's unreserved confession, Rosalina bit her lip and released her hands from her chest.

Sure enough, Rosalina's static body talent was too outstanding, and it could not be taken down with one hand.

With a groan, the war music sounded again in the Grand Duke's Palace.

……

Surprise appeared in Rosalina's eyes:
"Why do I feel that your strength... even I can't see through it?"

The reason why Rosalina asked this question was that during the fight just now, Miss Killer wanted to take the initiative, but was severely suppressed by Cohen.

To be honest, apart from the Queen Sister, the youngest legendary figure on the continent, no one can do anything to him in bed.

Cohen gently stroked Rosalina's body and said with a smile:

“You may not believe this, but even though you are a half-step legend, you are no match for me.

Well, among the three of you sisters, only Sister Bei can suppress me."

Meilansha frowned slightly:
"Sister Bei?
When did you and your sister become so close? "

Cohen pondered for a moment and explained:

"I forgot to tell you that Your Excellency the Witch helped me a lot in the Northwest Sea not long ago."

Rosalina did not suspect anything. Belmodi was the one who watched her and Mephis grow up. She was closer to her than her own family. Cohen had a good relationship with her, and Rosalina was happy to see it happen.

Speaking of her two sisters, Rosalina asked somewhat unsurely:
"I heard from Asuna that you're planning a trip to the Lost Land?"

Cohen nodded and said:
"Yes, I haven't made the potion I promised Sister Bei yet, and I have to go check out the arrangements in the Lost Land."

Roselanda whispered:
"Are you going to see Mavis?"

Cohen teased:
"Why, you two haven't reconciled yet?"

Last time, Rosalina had sex with Cohen in front of Mephis, which really stimulated her sister.

Mavis never contacted Rosalina again after that.

Rosalina snorted softly:
"It's all because of you, the playboy. You've already taken advantage of your younger sister, and now you're trying to seduce your elder sister."

Cohen said he felt wronged. Is it my fault that he has such high charm?
Rosalina rested her chin on her hand and thought for a while, then suddenly said something that shocked Cohen:
"I say... you're so powerful now, why don't you just force yourself on Mavis?"
