Agnes put away the smile on her face, half-knelt in front of Ammons with a solemn look on her face, paid him the highest courtesy, and swore allegiance to him.

Agnes was unwilling to wait any longer, as this was a critical period for Ammons to truly gain power.

Many nobles were fence-sitters, and even those who supported Ammons had very ambiguous attitudes.

They are all waiting for the situation to stabilize. Those old foxes will always stand on the side of the winner, and this is also the basis for the continuation of these aristocratic forces.

But Agnes was different. After careful consideration, she decided to take a gamble.

The imperial family of the empire controls 50% of the world's power, the three great dukes of the empire together control 30%, and the remaining nobles of all sizes control 20% in total.

The Lewis Family is the top duke family under the three great dukes, but the Lewis Family has always been unable to overcome the gap between them and the three great dukes to become one of the four great dukes.

If the Lewis family wants to continue to develop and become stronger, it is not advisable to be content with the status quo.

Only when Ammons has not yet completely gained power, and you completely stand on his side and bet the entire family on the chessboard, can the Levis family truly soar and be favored after Ammons ascends the throne.

Ammons looked at Agnes who was half-kneeling in front of him. He was dazzled by her snow-white eyes.

But Ammons had no intention of reaching out to help Agnes up and accept it, at least not yet.

Why was Agnes willing to surrender?

Because this ambitious woman felt that following Ammons would lead to ultimate victory and huge benefits.

But what if Ammons couldn't give her that?

Or even lost the competition for the throne?

Ammons thought that Agnes would become the sharpest blade piercing his heart at that time.

In Agnes' heart, family is above everything else, so when Ammons not only fails to bring prosperity to the Lewis family, but instead brings destruction, she will betray him without hesitation.

But Ammons did not want such subordinates. What he wanted were subordinates who would regard him as their absolute commander and be completely loyal to him and would never betray him.

"Agnes, do you know who really holds the power of the empire now?"

Ammons asked Agnes calmly.

"Nowadays, all the affairs of the royal family should be handled by the Prime Minister and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess."

Although Agnes didn't understand why Ammons said this now, she didn't look up and was still waiting for Ammons' acceptance.

"No, they are not the real rulers of the empire."

"You should have heard of the reclusive Empress Dowager of the Empire. She doesn't like me that much, and she is unpredictable and changeable."

"This Queen Mother is the real ruler of the empire and the manipulator behind Sister Mitis. She is also a Saint."

Ammons' words were like a hammer that shattered Agnes's understanding of the current situation of the empire.

There was no reason for Ammons to lie to her, so this could only be true.

"Moreover, the Empress Dowager has two Saints at her command. If I want to truly ascend the throne and take control of the empire, I must compete with her."

"Agnes, do you think I can still win now?"

Chapter 206: Common Sense Modification Solve All Loyalty Problems

Ammons smiled like a devil. Although Agnes lowered her head so that her expression could not be seen clearly, Ammons could be sure of what Agnes' expression was.

He already had a good understanding of Agnes.

In the game, this villain lady did whatever it takes to help her family rise, but she failed because she chose the wrong side.

There was a CG in the game when the Levis family was questioned and exiled.

It was a rainy and cloudy day. The Duke of Lewis was dead, Nora was dead, Ammons was dead, and the members of the Lewis family had left or fled. Only Agnes and less than ten other people were left in the huge castle.

That day, Agnes' hair was disheveled, and her once noble and elegant dresses were sold and turned into tattered beggar's clothes.

As the victor, Kyle came to witness the end of this ducal family.

Before leaving, Agnes looked at Kyle without any sadness and left her last words.

"If I hadn't been so confident and impatient, perhaps everything would be different now... I am the sinner of my family."

After saying this, Agnes and the few remaining maids left.

Ammons still feels a little emotional when he thinks of that scene now.

It's just that at the beginning he looked at Agnes, the loser, from the perspective of a winner.

Agnes must be anxious and hesitant now, afraid that there are really so many holy ranks in the palace that are difficult to control as Ammons said.

Agnes is confident in her vision and awareness, but when it comes to the level of the Saint Order, that is beyond Agnes's control.

Agnes doesn't like things that are uncertain, and often won't do things that are uncertain.

Now she has chosen Ammons, but because of the information gap, she has successfully done something uncertain this time.

"No, Your Highness Ammons, I will always be your most powerful blade. Please command the Levis family as much as you want. I am willing to give everything."

Although Agnes was extremely confused, she finally tried to calm herself down.

She knew that she couldn't show any hesitation or regret now, because doing so would only make it impossible for the Lewis family to recover.

Now that he had expressed his desire to submit completely to Ammons, he regretted it now. This simply offended Ammons to death.

Such fence-sitting behavior is very offensive no matter where it happens.

Agnes knew that her hesitant performance had greatly reduced her score in Ammons's heart, but she could only try her best to make up for it.

Ammons looked at Agnes, who was already sweating all over, with a playful look on his face and was very satisfied with her reaction.

This is exactly the effect Ammons wanted, and it was really interesting to see Agnes's out-of-control behavior.

Although Agnes's hesitation was indeed unpleasant, Ammons had anticipated it, and he had never intended to give Agnes the power to betray or not from the beginning.

"Agnes, look up."

Ammons put away the smile on his face, and his tone sounded extremely cold and ruthless, giving people a great sense of authority.

Agnes trembled all over and raised her head with some difficulty.

The next moment, she was met with a pair of golden eyes that exuded a terrifying awe-inspiring power like that of the lion, the king of beasts.

Agnes's brain almost went blank at this moment. Even though she was a great magician, her mental strength was still greatly shocked at this moment, and a loophole appeared in the defense line between her mind and spirit.

Imperial Power [+2]: Unlocks the branch power [Eye of Divine Power]

[Eyes of Divine Power]: Your eyes will become powerful. Anyone who looks into your eyes will be greatly shocked and subconsciously want to surrender.

As for the weak, they will not be able to muster the will to resist, and having lost control over their bodies, they can only obey and submit to you in terror.

When facing the strong, you will develop a warlike spirit, and strengthen all your attributes and resistance in all aspects, and you will hardly be affected by negative effects.

Moreover, the strong will feel restrained and find it difficult to exert their full strength.

This branch of power can be said to be extremely useful, and it can be said that it is tailor-made for this power.

Ammons has not yet achieved the requirements of the Imperial Power and is unable to fully realize its power.

However, the branch power can take effect independently, and this power allows Ammons to gain a group of submissive subordinates at a terrifying speed.

Although those subordinates who surrendered were only forced to surrender because of the terrifying power, they may not be loyal.

However, Ammons did not mind this because he had another power that could perfectly match the Eyes of Divine Power.

[Activate common sense modification, target Agnes]

[The judgment result is 9, which is successful]

Almost at the moment when the common sense modification took effect, Agnes's brain, which had been shocked and blank, fell into complete chaos.

Agnes completely lost herself and fell into Ammons' control.

If she enters the induced state, will that allow Agnes to escape?

Those who have strong obsessions in their hearts are more likely to be lured after entering the induced state.

Ammons only needs to grasp the obsession in their hearts and then guide that obsession in another direction, then they will fall completely into Ammons's control.

Ammons knew very well what Agnes was obsessed with, and that was her family.

This is Agnes's Achilles' heel.

"Question: Agnes, do you want to successfully revive your family and make the Livis family one of the four great dukes of the empire?"

"Yes."

Agnes' eyes were blank, but she gave her answer firmly.

"Follow-up question: If you want to revive your family, then the only person you can rely on now is Ammons."

"Yes."

Agnes nodded again.

Now her only way out is Ammons, there is no way out.

“Follow-up question: So you need to gain Ammons’s recognition and support. Are you willing to give everything for this?”

Agnes paused a little this time, but still nodded affirmatively.

For the family, nothing else matters.

"Follow-up question: So in order to revive the family, you need to be completely loyal to Ammons, recognize Ammons as your master, and devote everything to him."

This time Agnes paused longer.

There was no answer until Ammons asked again.

"Question: You have no other choice now. Resistance will only lead to the decline and destruction of your family. So you only have one way to go."

Following further questioning, Agnes finally made her decision.

"For the sake of my family, I am willing to submit, Master Ammons."

Chapter 207: Madam, I am here to help you practice!

[Induction successful, common sense modification completed]

Ammons concluded this common sense revision with satisfaction.

Agnes continued to half-kneel respectfully in front of Ammons, her eyes now empty of all other colors except for fanatical loyalty.

The effect of common sense modification is not just for show. From the moment Agnes accepted Ammons as her master, Ammons has become her true everything.

No matter what Agnes thought of this master before, after the common sense was modified, the concept of the master was set as Ammons wanted.

Now Agnes would never betray Ammons, and there would be no risk at all.

Because now the most important person in Agnes' heart has changed from family to Ammons.

Even if Ammons ordered Agnes to destroy the Lewis family, Agnes would only carry out the order without resistance.

But Agnes also feels the sadness, despair, and pain of destroying the things she holds dear.

Because Ammons did not completely modify all of Agnes' consciousness, her various concepts remained the same as before, except that she had an additional master, Ammons.

"Okay, you can get up."

Agnes stood up obediently and stood in front of Ammons with her head slightly bowed respectfully.

Ammons looked at Agnes now with great satisfaction.

Talents like Agnes are exactly what he wants, and now Agnes can carry out Ammons' orders.

Ammons' idea of ​​forming his own force can now be put on the agenda.

But before that, Ammons felt that he still needed to improve Agnes' own strength.

Although she is a great magician, Agnes's fighting ability is completely different from monsters like Ammons and Loranti.

Not to mention Ammons, just Loranti alone can beat more than three Agnes. Once Loranti learns the ancient magic, ten Agnes together will not be able to deal with Loranti.

There are also gaps between great magicians.

Agnes is one of those noble magicians who grew up in a greenhouse and has the lowest combat power.
