Extraordinary Rise: Starting Contract with the Silver Dragon Countess

Chapter 307 Princess: I’m in your fiancé’s bed, what do you want?

Duke Eisenheier's answer did not surprise Ifilo and Perico. In fact, they did not intend to convince the Eisenheier family to join them in a united front with just a few words.

As long as we can convince the other party not to stab us in the back when the Gavin family rebels, we will have achieved our intended goal.

Ifilo sincerely said:

"Duke, the Gavin family will always remember your kindness."

Eisenheier waved his hand and said:
"We're in this together. Tell Antoine to rest assured that some old friends and I will make the right choice at the critical moment."

Eisenheier didn't make it clear what the critical moment was and what the right choice was, but Ifilo could understand it.

As long as the Gavin family has the confidence to withstand the first wave of counterattacks from the Ceylon royal family and firmly hold the name of righteousness, Eisenhair and those families will stand with the Gavin family at the right time.

After some pleasantries, Ifilo and Perico left on their own initiative.

After the Gavin family left, Duke Eisenheil quickly summoned the core members of the family, and the first order he issued was to send people to the "Lost Land" as soon as possible to investigate the true situation of Her Royal Highness the Princess!
……

Ifilo and Perico quickly returned to the territory and began to arrange war preparations within the territory.

News has come back from Duke Gavin that they have officially decided to form an alliance with Eifin, which means that they are preparing to go to war with the royal family.

Along with the news from Duke Gavin, there was also a detailed intelligence report about the details of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Freya Cromwell, fifteen years old, a third-rank [Mechanic], a student of the Cursed Witch, the Lord of Sequences.

When Ifilo saw the appearance of Her Royal Highness the Princess, he was instantly stunned by her beauty. Although she was not yet an adult, the fatal charm emanating from Freya was already irresistible.

Perico on the side sighed:

"A gifted sorcerer, a legendary student, and unparalleled beauty, this is Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Kingdom of Ceylon!

The people will also recognize such a princess."

Ifilo came back to his senses, nodded in agreement, and stared at Freya's appearance for a while, as if he felt a vague sense of familiarity.

Freya... Freya... Why does this name sound so familiar?
Memories of the past floated in Ifilo's mind. Suddenly, he shuddered all over, with disbelief in his eyes.

He jumped up suddenly and shouted:
"Freya, is it her?
I remember, she is..."

However, before he could finish his words, a shadow suddenly floated out from Ifilo's body.

Seeing the phantom, Ifilo and Perico were both startled. The latter's magical aura instantly erupted, and he said in shock and anger:

"Little demon?

How did you get in here?"

At this moment, the voice of the Dread Demon Akdimon sounded:

"Don't get me wrong, I'm a subordinate of His Majesty Corleone, and I'm with Master Ifilo to protect his safety.

Also, Mr. Perico, please note that I am not a small demon. I am the descendant of the great Hades, the dread demon Akdimon. Well, Master Ifilo should have seen me. "

When Ifilo saw the image of the little demon Akdimon, his dusty memories were finally awakened.

In order to please the Queen's special envoy Windsardler, he recruited Cohen's adventure team. When they entered the Star Valley for adventure, the first difficulty they encountered was caused by the demon Akdimon.

At that time, the other party gave him a great psychological trauma and forced his soul out of his body. Unexpectedly, this demon of fear was eventually subdued by Cohen.

When Perico heard Akdimon say this, he looked at Ifilo in astonishment. Ifilo had gradually calmed down at this moment. Looking at the demon in front of him, he said in a deep voice:

"What are you here for?"

Akdimon smiled faintly:
"The master asked me to pass on a few words to Master Ifilo."

Ifilo probably guessed what the other party was going to say. After a moment of silence, he asked:
"Is this what he expected?"

Akdimon's tone was filled with genuine humility and respect:

"My master knows everything and can do everything."

Ifilo sighed softly, looked at Perico beside him, and said:

"Uncle, you should take a rest first. I want to talk to him alone."

Perico's eyes showed a solemn look, and after a brief pause he said:

"Be careful, I'm outside. If anything happens, notify me immediately."

"it is good."

After Perico left, Ifilo's gaze suddenly became much more severe, and he shouted coldly:
"Cohen asked you to gag me, didn't he?"

Akdimon laughed heartily, his voice harsh and piercing:
"Master Ifilo, your hostility is too great. The master asked me to come here to prevent your impulsive behavior from bringing irreparable disaster to his family."

Ifilo's expression became extremely angry, and he wanted to curse, but reason forced him to lower his voice:
"disaster?
Who brought this disaster?
Why did the Saxons attack our Gavin family? What role did your good Majesty play in this?"

The smile on Akdimon's face suddenly froze. He only had that kind of flattering expression in front of Cohen.

If we really talk about his identity, he is a descendant of the God of the Underworld, and his bloodline is much nobler than most people. Facing the angry Ifilo, he sneered:

"Master Ifilo, let me be frank, do you think your Gavin family is too important?
If the master really wanted to take action against your Gavin family, would he have to go through so much trouble?"

Ifilo replied in a deep voice:

"Then why did you fabricate a fake princess to deceive my father and force our family to rebel?

I have remembered that Freya is not a princess at all. When we went on the adventure to Starfall Valley, she was the daughter of the fourth-level adventurer!

By the way, that fourth-level adventurer should be the marshal of your Effiin now!

What on earth does your master want to do by making such a person the princess of our Kingdom of Ceylon!
Disguising his woman as a fake princess, is this what Cohen calls cooperation? "

Akdimon replied calmly:

"Fake?
Who told Her Highness Freya that it was fake?
The Lord of the Sequence of the Lost Land said that she was a real princess, the Pale Wings said that she was a real princess, the Pirate King and the Princess of the Eastern Empire said that she was a real princess, and even the Emperor of the Western Region and the Empress of the Central Region said that she was a real princess.

Then she is real, and the fake ones are also real!
Master Ifilo, don’t you understand the rules of this world?
Whether she is real or fake is never important. What matters is who is more powerful and who has more say, between those who think she is real and those who think she is fake.

Without Her Highness Freya, the gift from your master, your Gavin family would have no choice but to flee to a foreign country in disgrace, forever bearing the charge of treason!"

Ifilo fell into intense thought, his heart pounding, and there was an irritation and resentment in his chest that was difficult to vent, but he didn't know how to release it.

Reason told him that what the other party said was right. If there was no such princess, or if this princess was fake, what would their Gavin family do?
Ifilo's eyes flashed with blood, and he said in a cold voice:

"I want a precise answer from Cohen. What exactly does he want to do?"

Akdimon said calmly:

"Her Highness Freya will become the Queen of Ceylon in the future!"

Ifilo smiled bitterly, a laugh that carried a hint of desolation.

"And then, he becomes the king of Ceylon?

Why are you still trying to hide it? Which woman around your bastard master can escape from his clutches?

Training your own woman to become the king of the enemy country, and then suppressing her and humiliating her at will, is this your Majesty Corleone's revenge plan?
He was right, he came here for revenge!"

Akdimon's expression remained indifferent:
"The private affairs between the master and mistress are not something I can discuss, but the master told me before he left that if Young Master Ifilo still feels upset, I should tell him this."

Ifilo took a deep breath and regained his composure. A heartbroken voice rang out:
"Tell me, what else did His Majesty Corleone bring me?"

Akdimon said lightly:

"The master said that the Queen of Ceylon will need to build her own team in the future. He believes that if Master Ifilo can provide the Queen with all the assistance he can in consolidating her power, he would be very suitable to serve as the first Prime Minister of the new kingdom!"

Ifilo's eyes widened, completely shocked by Cohen's words.

If someone else said this, he would definitely sneer, but the one who said this was the famous Lord of Shadows, King of Effiin, the one who defeated the two empires and the Black Tomb, Korn Corleone!

prime minister?

Let yourself become the future Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Ceylon!
Even though he knew Cohen might be talking big, this promise was so tempting that Ifilo's heart still started beating fast.

Even with his father's power, he couldn't become the second most important person in this country. If he could...

Ifilo took a deep breath, quickly concealed the color in his eyes, and tried his best to suppress his emotions, and asked in a deep voice:

“I wonder if the new Kingdom of Ceylon will become a colony of his Effiin?”

An intriguing smile appeared on Akdimon's lips. These human nobles really couldn't resist the temptation of interests.

He said slowly:
"The master said that the new Kingdom of Ceylon belongs to the Queen of Ceylon and all the citizens of Ceylon."

Ifilo's eyes were filled with a terrifying light:
"I need a personal promise from His Majesty Corleone. In return, I will keep Freya's true identity a secret and do everything in my power to help Her Royal Highness restore her kingdom!"

Akdimon said coldly: "Master Ifilo, you are not qualified to put forward conditions. Please understand the situation. It is the Gavin family that needs the presence of Her Royal Highness the Princess!

As for whether you choose to believe the master's words, that's up to you!"

After Akdimon finished speaking, he did not stay and turned into a puff of smoke and left.

Ifilo stood there in a daze, falling into a long silence.

Not long after, Perico came in, looked around, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Ifilo:

"Are you done talking?

What happened? You just mentioned Her Highness Freya, and it seemed like you were surprised. Is there something going on?"

Ifilo suppressed the complicated thoughts in his mind, looked at his uncle, and asked:
"Uncle, do you think we really want to rebel?"

Perico was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned into a determined look:
“Ifil’o, I don’t want to leave the land where I have lived for most of my life, and I don’t want my people to point at my spine and call us traitors.

We have shown enough loyalty to Gaius's lineage, we don't deserve this!"

Ifilo's eyes suddenly lit up, he nodded heavily and said:

"I understand. It was nothing. I just felt that with Her Royal Highness's current beauty, when she reaches adulthood, her charm will surely be no less than those famous beauties on the continent."

Perico's eyes flashed with surprise, and he quickly said with a smile:

"Yes, Your Highness is not young anymore, and will soon be an adult. If you are interested, you may be able to marry Her Highness the Princess in the future..."

After hearing his uncle's words, Ifilo widened his eyes, and an indescribable fear suddenly rose in his heart.

He suddenly understood the reason why Akdimon appeared here today. In addition to reminding him to keep Freya's identity a secret, he was also reminding himself and his family not to have any inappropriate thoughts, so as not to bring disaster to himself!
Ifilo suddenly woke up, looked at Perico seriously, and spoke in an unusually harsh tone:
"Uncle, don't mention this matter again. Also, tell all the male nobles in the family that after Her Highness returns home, no one is allowed to have any thoughts about her, let alone any unrealistic ideas!

This is a matter of life and death, understand!"

Perico was confused by his nephew's sudden stern attitude and asked:

“Is it that serious?
At best, she's just a legendary student in the Lost Land, and she doesn't have a strong background. Besides, even if she were a princess, it wouldn't be embarrassing for the young master of our Gavin family to marry her."

Hearing Perico say this, Ifilo felt a chill in his heart. Even his uncle thought so. Those great nobles who wanted to unite with their Gavin family in the future must also have this plan, and some would even put it into practice!
He suddenly laughed miserably and uttered an inexplicable muttering:
"He did it on purpose, he did it on purpose!

Yes, if these people can help Freya successfully restore her country in the future, they will all be founding heroes and will share the benefits and territories.

How could a person like him tolerate others dividing his cake?
He just needed an excuse to take action against these people. If any dishonest nobleman dared to set his sights on Her Royal Highness the Princess... Ifilo could already foresee what would happen in the future.

Dare you have feelings for Cohen's woman?
Just look at Prince Xia Zuo of the Eastern Territory Empire and the Saints and Legendaries of the Black Tomb and you will know what their fate will be!"

Ifilo finally understood the real purpose of Akdimon coming here. He really gave the Gavin family a way out!
Ifilo grabbed Perico's shoulders tightly and said coldly:

"Uncle, I'll also tell Father that you must make it clear to those in the family that they must not have any thoughts about Her Highness Freya. Otherwise, even if we can escape this disaster, there will definitely be greater disasters in the future. Please remember this!"

……

Quetzaung, a private property of Julian Singh.

Akdimon gave Cohen a detailed report on his experience in Gavin's territory.

Cohen was peeling cherries for Windsordale. After listening to Akdimon's story, he suddenly chuckled and asked:

"Do you think this Master Ifilo can understand my hint?"

Akdimon hunched his back and dared not look up, fearing that he would see something he shouldn't see. He said flatteringly:
"From my observation, this Ifilo is quite sensible. He probably won't have any thoughts about Her Royal Highness the Princess, and he might even take the initiative to restrain his own people."

Cohen put the cherry into Windsordale's mouth and asked:

"That Duke Eisenheil, what do you think of him?"

Akdimon responded:
"More cunning and more unscrupulous than Duke Gavin."

A sneer appeared on Cohen's lips:

"Then we can use them as an example to warn the rest. Well, you can just hide in the Eisenheier family. You don't have to get too close to the core. These old nobles might have some special means to detect your presence.

Just find a guard or a servant."

Akdimon took careful note.

After saying this, Cohen thought for a moment and then asked:

"Have all the military officials deployed?"

Akdimon nodded and replied:

"The families mentioned by the master include the Duke of Eisenheil, Viscount Veritas, Viscount Lor'themar, and so on. There are about a dozen families in total. We ensure that we have military personnel outside each family.

Furthermore, the daily activities of every direct member of these families are under our close surveillance."

After listening to this, Cohen showed a satisfied look on his face and said:
"Well done. You will be in charge of these matters for the time being. Once the war officially begins, Asuna and Rosalina will arrive from the southern border. You can then hand this matter over to Rosalina."

Akdi lowered his head and replied flatteringly:

"Okay, Master. I will definitely protect Her Royal Highness the Princess and make sure no one will hurt her."

Cohen raised his lips slightly, took out a sheepskin scroll from his arms and handed it to Akdimon:
"This is part of the inheritance of the Hades. It should be of some help to your cultivation. Practice well. The higher your cultivation level, the more work you can do."

Akdimon's eyes flashed with excitement, and he hurriedly took the scroll with a face full of gratitude and flattery.

Seeing that Cohen had no other instructions, he left on his own and returned to Gavin's territory, waiting for Freya's arrival.

After Akdimon left, Windsardler looked at Cohen's slightly frowned brow, stretched out his slender fingers and gently kneaded his forehead, and asked softly:
"Are you worried about Freya's safety?"

Cohen sighed and said:
"Although we've made a lot of preparations, once things get started, unpredictable changes can happen at any time. Freya is still too young after all, and may not be a match for those old nobles."

Windsordler curled his lips and said unhappily:
"It's all because of someone's great charm that such a young child is completely devoted to you. If you're really worried, why not secretly arrange a guard for her?"

Cohen also meant this. After a moment of silence, he said:

"There's no suitable candidate. The Legendary rank I have are all familiar faces, and it would be easy for the nobles of the Kingdom of Ceylon to find out. If someone is lower than the Legendary rank, there's no point..."

Windsardler said casually:

"We can't assign her a Saint rank, right? Garcia is the only Saint rank in Effiin right now, and he's even more famous than those Legendary rank ones."

Hearing Windsardler's casual remark, Cohen's eyes lit up and he instantly had an idea.

He stood up, hugged Windsardler and kissed him hard, saying:

"Let's send a Saint-level. This Saint-level has nothing to do lately anyway. Letting him stay by Freya's side will not only protect her safety, but will also help us monitor the movements of the Saints in the Kingdom of Ceylon!"

After kissing Windsardler, Cohen picked up the communication stone and contacted Grace Tang, the eldest princess of the Eastern Territory Empire, who was far away on Scarlet Island and was guarding the Scarlet Reaver Pirates for Cohen.

It was not until he contacted Grace that he suddenly realized something was wrong. Her Royal Highness the Princess always spoke to him without restraint and often teased him.

Not to mention that she and Windsardler had always loved bickering in the Lost Land.

I was a little too impatient. I should have waited until Windsardler was asleep or not around to contact her.

But the call has been connected now. If I hang up, not only will Windsardler become suspicious, but Grace will definitely feel uncomfortable.

There was no other way, Cohen had to bite the bullet and greet Grace, secretly hoping that the other party would not talk nonsense.

However, the more you fear something, the more it will come to pass. Before Cohen could finish his greeting, Grace's seductive and alluring voice came from the communication stone:

"Oh my, the busy man finally remembered that he has a fiancée, right?

You just tricked this princess into your hands, and then you left her on a deserted island, and even went back to marry some elven princess. Your Majesty, is there any man on this continent more heartless than you?

Cohen panicked, and before he could speak, Windsardler's voice rang out:

"Long time no see, Your Highness. The princess you mentioned is right here in your fiancé's bed. What do you want?"

The communication stone fell silent. Cohen knew without hesitation that Grace must be very angry.

Cohen wanted something from her this time. He reached out and grabbed Windsardler's vitals, gave him a look, and whispered:
"Your Highness, Windsor was just joking. I've been busy in the Kingdom of Ceylon lately. Once I'm done with things here, I'll go back to Scarlet Island to pick you up. I'm sorry to have worked so hard these past few days."

Grace's voice was full of provocation:
"It's okay. I'm here to enjoy the sea view, which is quite nice. You just go about your business. For a man, career is definitely the most important thing. The better you are, the more satisfied your father will be.

As for Miss Windrunner's gossip, don't worry, I won't take it personally with an elf who's over a hundred years older than me."

Windsardler immediately got furious and opened her mouth to fight back, but Cohen blocked her red lips with his mouth, causing her to make a mumbling sound.

Cohen whispered:

"Good Windsor, good Windsor, you will always be the youngest and most beautiful goddess in my eyes. Her Highness has been on the island for too long and is quite resentful. Let's not bother with her!"
