PS: The protagonist’s college roommate is just a small easter egg. Lao Yue is the protagonist of another book of mine that has not been published yet. It is a purely original creation with a very short outline.
Chapter 3: New Sister Devil
When Kal'tsit walked into the ward, Qiao Yelan was staring at the blue kettle on the bedside, lost in thought.
"PhD?"
"Huh? I haven't even gotten my Ph.D. yet."
"...Actually you got it."
Qiao Yelan was confused by the other party's words, but soon focused his attention on the documents brought by the other party.
"We are facing a lot of problems. These problems are not caused by accumulation. Instead, several conflicts that should have erupted later broke out at the same time this year, causing all of them to pile up together."
"And the most pressing issue right now is how we continue to gain a foothold in Kazdale."
A world map was placed in front of Qiao Yelan.
"Kazdel... No, how can we stand here?"
Qiao Yelan was shocked. This damn place borders Ursus in the north, Dayan in the east, Rembilt in the south, and Syracuse in the west.
This cannot even be described as a place of war, it is simply a hot potato. If it were in the past, its importance would be equivalent to the Panama Canal and Suez Canal stacked together.
"I suggest just running away."
Qiao Yelan gave up treatment directly.
"No, the situation in Kazdel has stabilized. External forces have lost interest in this place. The two kings of Sarkaz, Theresis and Theresia, are in control of this place."
Ah? This can also be stabilized? Continental Bridge, hey, this place can give non-four-party forces a foothold?
"Then why not just find a king to join?"
"...the two siblings are in the same group."
Qiao Yelan directly typed a question mark.
What is the political situation in this damn place?
Is it too primitive to have any political struggles, or too progressive to have world peace?
“We nurtured them all.”
That's fine.
"The political environment here is quite complicated. The Sarkaz are divided into multiple races, and each race has its own strong people. There are also multiple [Racial Courts] that are regarded as trump cards. For example, Theresa belongs to the Sarkaz Court."
"At present, the thrones of Teresis and Theresa are not stable, because they are not destined to be the [Demon King]. You can understand this title as the destined ruler. Only with this title can the Sarkaz truly submit."
Qiao Yelan listened very attentively, and he decided not to speak until Kal'tsit finished speaking.
"I once organized a coalition to defeat the [Demon King] at that time, but that was actually a deal. In order to prevent that man's madness from destroying the entire Sarkaz clan, you and I fought a completely controlled war on opposite sides."
"There has been no Demon King since then. Tracys and Theresa also rose to prominence through that war. Until now, Theresa has chosen to wear the Demon King's Crown and become the new Demon King."
"Now Tracy is very angry about this. He suspects that we did it on purpose. His previous deal with us was to hand over the Demon King's Crown to us and not let his sister become the Demon King. So the basis for our cooperation has disappeared, and he is likely to bring an army to hold us accountable."
Qiao Yelan raised his hand.
"Ask a question."
"Excuse me."
"Why doesn't Tracy want his sister to become a demon king?"
"Due to some historical reasons, the Demon King is regarded as a person who destroys the world. As long as a Demon King who holds the Demon King's Sword is born, all forces will work hard to destroy him. The prophecy that has been circulated says that Theresa will become the Demon King. This is also the reason why she chose to cooperate with us."
The man nodded.
“So it was you who arranged for Theresa to become the Demon King?”
"of course not."
"That would be a betrayal..."
“No! No! Theresa didn’t betray—”
Kal'tsit seemed to have triggered something and excitedly denied Qiao Yelan's words.
"She is not, she is not betraying...it's just, just, just - I didn't keep an eye on her for a moment, but she is not betraying, absolutely not."
The other party’s reaction surprised Qiao Yelan. For the first time, he stared at Kal’tsit’s eyes until she avoided looking at him.
Kal'tsit seemed to know too much about herself.
And she really thinks highly of Theresa.
"...Is this the first time we've met?"
"No."
“Is this the first time I’ve lost my memory?”
"...many times."
Qiao Yelan covered his head with his hands as he had a headache.
"Where is the letter?"
Kal'tsit was silent for a while before she took out a letter that looked a little old from her bosom. Judging from the degree of bend, she had been carrying it close to her body.
Sure enough, the letter clearly read [Qiao Yelan - sent to - Qiao Yelan].
He opened the envelope, took out the not-so-thick letter paper inside, and then his face darkened.
There were scribblings and corrections on the letter paper. Some places were crossed out, some were crossed out, and some were circled.
Such erasures became less and less frequent as time went on. It was obvious that this was a letter that he had been writing and revising all the time. The information he left for himself were all things he thought he must master after losing his memory.
Damn it, I knew I’d never be able to change the word lazy in my lifetime.
Qiao Yelan read the letter carefully, closed his eyes and slowly sorted it out.
He was still confused about many things, and obviously needed to learn more about the basic knowledge of this world and the country's political situation, but he explained the current situation very clearly.
There are only three sentences in total.
[Kelsey likes Theresa very much, so don't make her sad. Everything she does is for your own good, there is no doubt about that.]
[Theresa is too kind and has a strong will. She is not a good candidate to be a monarch, but she can be used as a monarch.]
[Tracy is very capable and kind, but he is a sister-con.]
understood.
He opened his eyes and looked at Kal'tsit who was getting nervous.
"Okay, I get it, Theresa, this is not your fault."
"No, I take the main responsibility here—"
"She certainly didn't betray us."
Qiao Yelan gave his conclusion with a smile.
"This is just the inevitable result of her personality. Of course, I decided that even if this situation occurred, the trouble she would cause us would still be less than the benefits she could bring us, so I chose to use her and her brother."
"So don't blame yourself, and don't worry. I don't think Theresa's behavior is a betrayal. It's just a reasonable risk that can be accepted."
Kal'tsit was obviously relieved - what she feared most was that Qiao Yelan would think Theresa was a traitor and carry out his plan based on this.
"Did Tracy say she wanted to see you?"
"Not yet, but he is very angry, and there are rumors of mobilizing troops, so I woke you up and wanted to leave here."
"Put pressure first... Did he negotiate with Theresa?"
"nor."
Qiao Yelan nodded, snuggled into the quilt and closed his eyes.
"Don't worry, cancel the evacuation plan - I want to sleep for a while, and when Tracy says he wants to see you, just take me with you."
Chapter 4: Same words, different purposes
Tracy walked towards the building with a gloomy face.
【Tower of Babel】.
He didn't even know why that person had chosen this name. The only thing he knew clearly was that, since two hundred years ago, the person who had chosen this name had bound him like a yoke for two hundred years.
And before that, how many years had the Sarkaz been bound?
How many times was Kazdel's destruction his fault?
Fortunately, that person was not always awake, and Kal'tsit... was just a doctor.
He did not inform Kal'tsit of his arrival so that he could take advantage of the situation to start a fight, make the problem bigger, and force the other party to make more concessions.
But the completely open passage in front of him suddenly made him feel a little uneasy.
It’s not that no one saw him coming with his army, but those people all stepped aside respectfully and made way.
Did Kal'tsit know that I would come uninvited?
There was still no fluctuation on Tracy's face, he just walked along the road into the building.
"Please go upstairs. Dr. Kelsey is waiting for you in the office."
A voice coming from somewhere made Manfred behind Tracys draw his sword.
"Come out, Ascalon! How dare you be so presumptuous in front of His Highness!"
A female Sarkaz walked out from the shadows and glanced coldly at Tracy and Manfred.
"I serve only one prince - besides, put away your sword, Manfred, you are no match for me."
"you--"
"enough."
Tracys was not angry, he just looked at Askalon.
"She's waiting for me in the office?"
"Yes, please help yourself."
After saying this, Askalon left on his own.
"Go, Manfred."
But His Highness' heart sank a little more.
By the time he opened the office door, his heart had completely sunk to the bottom.
"Long time no see, Your Highness Tracys."
As respectful as ever, as humble as ever, and as chilling as ever.
There was an obvious pause in Tracy's movements, and even Manfred noticed something was wrong.
"PhD?"
"Yes, I finally recovered from my illness some time ago, but my body hasn't recovered yet. I still need to rest and recover, so I didn't have time to inform you. I'm really sorry."
Qiao Yelan nodded slightly to express his apology. Kal'tsit stood behind him with no expression on her face.
This is putting pressure on yourself
I didn't inform myself that I was coming, but you had already made the best preparations. If you didn't inform me, I would know nothing about anything.
Tracy already regretted it in his heart, but now the arrow was on the string and his subordinates were watching him, so he had to go in.
"Your Highness, please sit down."
Qiao Yelan extended his hand to invite.
