Arad's Sword

Chapter 609 Counterattack the Empire
Are you sure you can sit firmly on the throne of the emperor?
When Midi asked this sentence, it could be said to be an extremely understatement.

It was as if he was asking Reinhardt if he had afternoon tea today, rather than asking about the ownership of the imperial throne, which could affect the situation of the entire continent.

So, at first Reinhardt just replied smoothly: "Don't worry, let me think about it first."

Just thinking about it, Reinhardt immediately fell into astonishment.

The throne of the Delos Empire?

Doesn't this mean that Midi is ready to attack her ruthless father, "King of Swords" Yoren?

Moreover, what Midi asked was not "can you sit on the throne", but "can you sit on the throne".

This means that Reinhardt doesn't have to think about becoming an emperor at all, he just needs to think about how to be an emperor and firmly hold the entire empire in his hands!
When he finally realized the significance of the question Midi raised, Reinhard was completely overwhelmed in an instant.

how many years?

How many years have passed since Reinhardt was born, suppressed by his second brother, and ruthlessly rejected by his father?
It can be said that the biggest goal of the fourth prince in his life is to become the emperor of the Delos Empire, and then severely suppress all the enemies who framed him and exiled him.

And now, Midi actually told him that he could become the emperor of the Delos Empire!

No matter how good the heart is, no matter how deep the city is, how can Reinhardt not be excited?
"You mean, you mean, make me the emperor of the Delos Empire?"

Reinhardt swallowed, stared at Midi for a long time, and finally said slowly.

"That's right, that's it."

Midi nodded, and answered very clearly in an unambiguous tone.

Speaking of this, the people around finally understood.

The reason why Midi removed Reinhardt from all his positions in the "Falcon Group" and let him no longer intervene in the affairs of the Belmare Kingdom is to make Reinhardt the emperor of the empire!
If Reinhardt really became the emperor and came to power by force, there must be a lot of affairs to deal with, and at the same time, he would have to compete for power with countless nobles and interest groups in the empire. Naturally, it would be impossible to have time to distract himself It's Belle Mare's business.

It can be said that sending Reinhardt to the throne is the greatest reward and support that Midi has given him for his hard work over the past year!
However, the premise is that Midi can drive the "King of Swords" Yoren from power.

Now Midi spoke so lightly, as if he was not discussing the throne of the empire, but the position of the mayor of a small town in the kingdom.

But in reality, is it really that simple?

Even if Midi could directly wipe out tens of thousands of the empire's army by himself, it would not be so simple if he wanted to go straight to the capital of the empire, right?

Moreover, the legendary "King of Swords" Yoren himself is said to have unfathomable strength.

Once Midi and the "Emperor of Swords" Yoren face off, it may be difficult to tell who will win.

After all, on the battlefield, there is no so-called absolute.

This one was told by Midi to everyone in the Falcon Group.

Although he didn't say it out loud, the heart-shattering scene of the confrontation between the two couldn't help but emerge in the hearts of the leaders of the Falcon Regiment present.

"With Midi's current strength, even if the Sword Emperor himself comes, he will definitely not be his opponent. This old man can guarantee it."

Suddenly, a majestic voice resounded faintly.

It was Grand Duke Heydrich Hamilton.

As soon as this remark came out, there was a small uproar immediately.

You know, the Iron-Blooded Grand Duke never speaks easily, let alone make evaluations easily.

But at this moment, he directly asserted that Midi would definitely be able to defeat the "King of Swords" Yoren!
Does this mean that the Iron-Blooded Duke had already had a certain degree of discussion with Midi, and it was a complete failure, so he came to such a conclusion?
After all, if there is anyone on the continent of Arad whose strength is closest to the "King of Swords" Yoren, that is only the Grand Duke himself.

However, although the words of the Grand Duke of Iron and Blood reassured most people, Reinhardt himself, who was most eager to get the throne of the Delos Empire, shook his head slightly.

"I am also very clear that my father Yoren is just a pseudo-second awakening, so he is indeed not your opponent for the real second-awakened Midi. But the problem is that the empire today is not only the 'King Emperor' Yoren sits alone. Inside the empire, there is an inexplicably powerful force, and that force is probably the biggest key to the empire's current arrogance!"

There was a deep fear in Reinhardt's eyes.

"Sword Emperor" Yoren has been in charge of the empire for decades, but the pace of expansion of the empire has never been considered fast.

Because in the final analysis, no matter how strong the Sword Emperor is, he is just one person, and the quality of the empire's army has been improving very slowly.

However, in the past six months, the army of the Delos Empire has increased its strength at an unimaginable speed. Even the "Falcon Group" created by Midi is no match, and the "Golden Branch Army" of the Hamilton family is even more powerful. It was beaten to pieces.

Obviously, this can't be the method of "Sword Emperor" Yoren, it can only be some special abnormal mutation inside the empire.

It is precisely to investigate this mutation clearly that Reinhardt will secretly send his most powerful assistant, Midi's old acquaintance, the "Nightmare Hand" Wiseman Newton back to the empire, and carry out secret investigations. investigation.

The "King of Swords" Yoren whose strength has been clarified is not the focus of his worries, but the unknown undercurrent in the empire now really makes Reinhardt worry endlessly.

Because, it was this unknown undercurrent that caused the empire to expand at an unprecedented speed.

It's just that Wiseman hasn't found out anything yet, and now he has been discovered by the empire, and he is probably fleeing now.

Therefore, Reinhardt couldn't help but raise objections to Midi's plan to immediately march into Delos without making any preparations.

Although he was extremely eager to get the throne, especially sitting on that cold throne in front of his ruthless father, at this moment, it was precisely because of his extremely longing that Reinhardt was the one who worried about gains and losses the most. people.

However, after hearing what Reinhardt said, Midi showed a knowing expression.

"It should be a demon."

Midi glanced at Agares, and then said so.

"Don't look at me, although the fourth apostle 'conqueror' Casillas and the ninth apostle 'maker' Luke are also quite interested in the continent of Arad, but the two of them just have to deal with the consumption of the demon world. It's exhausting. Now in the Demon Realm, there is only one person who has the ability to infiltrate the human kingdom."

Agares replied lightly.

"Second apostle, 'tear-eyed' Herder..."

Midi gave a sneer.

Has it already started, the legendary "Demon Invasion".

In Midi's mind, she couldn't help but have such a thought.

In fact, since the Grand Forest fire, the huge sandwich cake in the world of Arad has produced a tendency to merge with each other.

The heavenly world, the demon world, and the human world, these three worlds are constantly attracting each other, approaching each other, and merging together.

And the result of this fusion is the collision between the major races and forces.

In the previous life, the "heavenly war" in which Midi finally fell was the epitome of a three-way melee between the demons of the demon world, the gods of the heavens, and the humans of the Arad continent.

And in this life, with the rebirth of Midi, the conflict and collision between the heaven, the human world, and the demon world has also been advanced due to the influence of the butterfly effect.

Midi is almost certain that no matter how many changes in this life, in the end, he will still have to face those supreme powerhouses from the demon world and many forces from the heaven world.

At this moment, the surge in combat power of the Delos Empire in the past six months is undoubtedly the result of the infiltration of the Demon Realm.

You know, in the previous life, it was well known that the Delos Empire was controlled by the demons.

In this life, with Agares by his side, Midi has learned a lot of secrets about the apostles and the demon world, so it can be said that he has a clear understanding of the situation in this regard.

The undercurrent that Reinhardt was worried about, in Midi's view, had no secrets at all, it was the hands and feet of the demons for expansion.

It is precisely because of this that Midi will launch an attack on the Delos Empire in the first place.

Doing this is not only for the safety of the Kingdom of Bel Mare, not only to repay Reinhardt's righteousness, but also for the future of the entire Arad continent and all mankind.

Of course, with the continuous integration of the Three Realms, Midi is also very clear that one day, demons, humans, and gods will have to share the same world.

This point, even the supreme powerhouse cannot reverse it.

Therefore, he never had the extravagant hope that he could really shut out the demons completely. Doing so would only make the flames of war continue endlessly.

But even if the three races need to coexist, Midi hopes to be the first to seize the initiative.

Therefore, he must destroy those forces that infiltrated the empire and belonged to the second apostle "Tear Eyes" Herder.

In other words, even if the demons are finally accepted to this land, it is definitely not the demons under the second apostle, but the fourth apostle, the ninth apostle, or even the first apostle who has a better relationship with Midi. The subordinate of the eight apostles Lotos.

For this reason, Midi is bound to win the next swift counterattack.

"Since I have taught the second apostle's subordinates a lesson on the dragon battlefield, I don't mind giving her another lesson on the Arad continent, which belongs to the human battlefield. Even if they are in the empire No matter how mischievous it is, it still can't stop my actions."

Midi said lightly.

"Pass my order, the Falcon Regiment obeys the order, and prepare immediately. The target is the capital of the Delos Empire, the capital of the Golden Emperor, Vetalon!"
