Secretary of the Devil's Castle

"Okay, time to go."
Favna opened the door for Fatalia, and Ender was waiting outside. When he saw Fatalia, he leaned slightly and stretched out his right hand, "Come on, Fatalia, it's time for us to enter. "
And in the venue, the nobles who had been waiting finally heard the voice they had been looking forward to.
"The supreme authority of the empire and the star of the empire, His Majesty the Demon King and His Royal Highness the Princess are here—!"
(Today's Chapter 1~)
(Holidays are theoretically a good time to code words, but in practice they are not the same...)
(Based on the rewards offered, I already owe 10 more...)
(Tsk, a lot.)
(Come to chat in the group by the way, 649920672, the answer is: unfinished story)
Chapter 32 Ender's Manifesto
According to the etiquette of the human countries on the mainland, the order of entering the banquet venue is determined, and people with higher status are often photographed at the back, but for the Keynesian Empire whose main body is demons, it will not be so particular.
Although some nobles will come late on purpose to show their style, most of the nobles control their time to attend the banquet at will, just like the Northern Grand Duke Hobert Frederick, he can It is said that they were the first group of people who came to the venue.
But even so, someone must be there at the latest, and that is the person with the highest status who came to the banquet.
Then there is no doubt that in the Cairns Empire, no one can match the status of the only devil in the Cairns Empire, Ender Cairns.
As Ender's adopted daughter, Fatalia naturally entered the arena with him.
Following the waiter's voice, the door on the second floor of the hall slowly opened, and the supreme ruler of the empire and the mysterious princess who suddenly appeared finally showed their true faces among the nobles.
The black luxurious dress is decorated with red gemstones and golden silk threads to outline patterns. There is a silver chain pendant on the waist, and the coat of arms symbolizing the Cairns Empire is worn on the left chest-a few strokes with the cross star as the base The demon head that came out had a bright red cloak on its shoulders, and there was an identical coat of arms on the cloak.
Ende was silent, and his scarlet eyes looked at the nobles below without any emotion, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression, which made people feel chills in the bottom of their hearts.
But the princess on the other side has another look.
Wool-like white curly shawl hair, brown horns protruding from the hair, although young, but the appearance is very delicate, extremely dreamlike, the facial features are well matched, and a pair of scarlet eyes seem to be soaked in blood , exuding charm, pursed his mouth, and looked indifferent, obviously looking at the people below, but it gave the impression that he ignored everything.
Her skin is as white as cream, which seems to be broken by blows. She is wearing a black sleeveless dress, exposing her attractive shoulders and large arms like milk cakes. A pair of long black gloves with lace on the edges wrap her hands , and the snow-white neck is matched with a black neck ring and red gemstones.
Speaking of the long dress, I have to marvel at the genius of Mrs. Mary. The upper body is tightened, and a large bowknot is used to cover the barrenness of the chest, and bright red gemstones are used as embellishments, while the lower body is like a blooming black flower, but It was cut off in half, revealing a scarlet gap, and under that gap was another black flower that opened, its petals spread out to the surroundings, but the difference was that the heart of this flower bloomed upwards, while the original one It blooms downwards, and the scarlet slit just merges with the petals of the two flowers, which is extremely amazing.
The whole body of the dress is only black and red, but it does not give people a sense of monotony. Instead, it has a harmonious beauty, as exquisite as a work of art.
Fatalia, who is like a work of art, and an evening dress that is like a work of art, the combination of the two is just right, coupled with Fatalia's charm talent as a high-level succubus, it made everyone in the venue feel abnormal for a moment mood swings.
Perfect appearance.
Seeing the voiceless performance of the nobles below, Ender couldn't help but secretly nodded.
Sure enough, Fatalia would never let him down no matter what, the first move would often take the initiative, so it would be much more convenient to speak later, although there must still be a lot of people who don't understand or even dissatisfied with Fatalia's becoming a princess, but after At this banquet, there will be much less reason and courage for them to show up.
The nobles below were surprised by Fatalia's beauty and lost their voices for a moment, but they are well-informed people anyway. Although high-level succubi are rare, they do not exist on Demon Island. Ya can have such beauty at this age, but they didn't take it too seriously. They each raised their glasses to offer sincere or false blessings to Ender and Fatalia, and looked at Fatalia a little It seemed that the performance of stage fright was invisible, and many nobles with malicious intentions restrained their small thoughts a little bit.
At least at this moment, the performance of this princess is qualified or even excellent, so that many idlers can be silenced.
The Twelve Generals on the other side saw another scene. Seeing Fatalia's incomparably stunning appearance, Tiffany slapped Tan En's breastplate excitedly. Tiffany's head forced her to calm down, even so Tiffany's cheeks were flushed, and she looked too excited to control herself.
In fact, Tan En is also very happy, but his character does not allow him to do things that are too outrageous, and he even has to restrain Tiffany, who is about to go up.
These two teachers became so excited. Although the other twelve generals were not as excited as the two of them, most of them still put their hearts in their stomachs. Seeing is believing, seeing Fatalia in this way, the performance of Her Highness the Princess is enough to make them feel at ease.
An eight-year-old child has no stage fright in such a big scene, and with the praise from Tan En and Tiffany, it must be that Her Highness Fatalia is capable enough to make them dedicate their loyalty.
Unlike the peace on the side of the Twelve Generals, although the second-generation border nobles on the other side cannot be said to be gloomy, they can also be said to be frowning. The Countess of Boer was frightened before, which made them have a good impression of the princess. Some psychological expectations, so when Fatalia appeared, these second-generation border nobles felt a deeper meaning than others.
Is this Her Royal Highness Princess of the Empire?
But Fatalia is in a bad mood. As a major sin, she is more sensitive to negative emotions than ordinary people, and the feeling this banquet gives her now... can only be described as disgusting.
Whitewashed by a glorious surface, dirty desires and exchange of interests flow inside. Everyone wears a mask to talk to others, holding a dagger behind their backs at all times, perhaps looking for an opportunity to stab into each other's body, or planning to Where can I cut off my own piece of meat.
Disgusting.
There were even a few people looking at her with strange eyes.
Frankly speaking, Fatalia feels that she is not a good person, but also a guy who puts her interests first, but she doesn't like such hypocritical hypocrisy and obscenities.
The waiter handed Ender a glass of red wine, and the nobles fell silent very quickly, waiting for the lord of the empire to speak.
Ende held his wine glass, stepped forward a few steps, and got closer to the edge of the steps, announcing in a calm voice: "I think you all know why this banquet is held, so let me emphasize it again, this is my adopted daughter , Fatalia Keynes, she will be the princess of the empire, the heir of the empire, and the future devil king.
"This is the will of me, the Demon Lord, Ender Keynes. No other opinions will be accepted, and those who violate it will be executed."
(Originally, I planned to stay up late according to the original plan... Why did the school still have a power outage after the holiday?! Is the thing on the head of the school's neck a decoration?!)
(Tsk, forgive me, let’s procrastinate a little longer, and I will definitely make up for the updates that are owed in these chapters)
Chapter 33 Nasty Sivis Anderson
The noble's banquet is not just a simple banquet, it is more of a place for communication. Many nobles will take this opportunity to chat with those nobles who are usually out of touch, so as to seize every opportunity to climb up.
The difference is that some of these nobles have their own names, but some of them are not very clear about their position.
"Earl Hepburn, although your proposal is very interesting, it is better for us to enjoy the banquet now. Perhaps next time, we will have the opportunity to have a more in-depth exchange."
Sivis held his wine glass and smiled【@&
However, some people, even fools without self-knowledge, would wisely choose not to approach them.
Demon King Ende was sitting on the seat over there, with his legs crossed and his arms crossed, watching Fatalia enjoy the delicious food brought by the waiter.
As the person with the highest power and status in the entire empire, his status as a demon king naturally screens out those who can talk to him, so that those nobles with lower status dare not approach him, and no one will feel that he can carry out such cruelty. The devil of the law will be a benevolent king. Even if he convulses and kills on the spot, these nobles will probably just think that they are unlucky, not confused.
Therefore, as the most powerful demon king, he was the one who had the most leisure at the banquet, and even Fatalia was busy eating.
But this leisure will not last long.
After an initial period of hesitation, some nobles with higher status finally came to Ender.
It was the Grand Duke of the North, Hobart Frederick, the sea-folk.
"Long time no see, Your Majesty the Devil King! Your faithful Hobot sends you his regards."
This peculiar-looking sea tribe seemed a little excited, so that his tentacles were a little knotted, but Ender didn't care too much, just nodded slightly, and replied: "It's really been a long time, it's been 30 years , Even for the Sea Clan with a long lifespan, it is not a short number. Although the annual report is submitted on time, I still want to hear from you personally, how is the situation in the northern border recently, Hobot?"
"Thanks to His Majesty the Demon King, everything in the northern border is safe and sound. Although the implementation of the laws of the empire has been hindered, overall the progress is not bad, and the harvests are good. This year's fishery is a bumper harvest! But Your Majesty the Demon King, I still have to mention, do you really allow those humans to build ports in the northern border? Although the sovereignty is still on our side, I always feel that these guys have bad intentions. After all, humans are a more cunning race than goblins. "
"Don't worry, Hobot, it was said that humans built it, but in fact it was just proposed by them. I have long planned to build a port and waterway to maintain a stable connection with the mainland. Put it in the northern border It's just right, only those humans... It's just that some monarchs with a keener sense of smell are making arrangements in advance, it's not a problem."
"Well, if His Majesty the Demon King thinks so, then I'm relieved, but I'm still upset with those plane apes. Don't expect me to change, His Majesty the Demon King. I just can promise not to trip them up."
When Ender and Hobert were chatting, Fatalia listened to their conversation with interest while eating lemon cake. Of course, she was more interested in the Hobart Frederick next to him. The appearance of the duke.
With an appearance that looks suitable for a SAN value test, it would be a pity not to visit Mr. Ke next door.
But it’s all about complaining, Fatalia still knows what’s going on with the Grand Duke of the Northern Territory. Ender gave Fatalia some information about people she might meet a few days ago, including The Grand Duke of the North.
Hobert Frederick, the first generation of frontier nobles, Sea Clan, and an eighth-rank senior mage, is loyal, but also shrewd, capable and means, and his loyalty is guaranteed, so he is trustworthy.
When Fatalia was observing Hobot, this Hobot also noticed Fatalia's gaze, "Ah, Your Royal Highness, I'm so sorry that I only paid attention to His Majesty the Demon King just now, and I forgot to say hello to Your Highness... Well, good evening, Your Royal Highness, I am the Grand Duke of the North, Hobert Frederick."
Seeing this, Fatalia also put down the cake in her hand, then jumped off the chair, and gave a skirt ceremony to the Grand Duke, "Good night, Grand Duke Frederick, my name is Fatalia Cairns."
"Oh, yes, His Majesty the Demon King mentioned it just now, hello, Your Highness Fatalia, I was so negligent just now, and this, this is a small gift I brought from the northern border, I hope it suits your appetite .”
As he said that, Hobot rubbed his hands, took out a small bag from his arms, and handed it to Fatalia, "Some small candies from the northern border—please forgive me for not knowing how to choose a gift, but I think candy is what every kid likes."
Fatalia took the candy and replied, "Thank you, that's exactly what I wanted."
At this moment, another wild voice came from the side, "Excuse me, Your Majesty the Demon King, Grand Duke of the Western Region, Sivis Anderson greets the supreme ruler of the empire, although I am not the first person to come to say hello, but I hope His Majesty the Demon King won't dislike me for being too slow."
"It's okay, Sivis."
It was the ambitious leader of the second-generation frontier nobleman, the Grand Duke of the Western Territory, Sivis Anderson, who appeared.
Seeing Sivis appear, Hobot leaned over and whispered in Fatalia's ear, "To be honest, I really hate this lion."
Fatalia nodded incredulously.
In fact, not only Hobot, but none of the first-generation frontier nobles liked the Grand Duke of the Western Territory. In their eyes, Sivis Anderson was just a lucky man who had been shadowed by his parents, although he had a little ability and talent. , but from the moment when he dared to disagree with Ender and abandon the glory of his parents, the favorability value of those first-generation border nobles for Grand Duke Anderson dropped to freezing point.
And Sivis was indeed not very likable.
He likes to show off and show off, is too arrogant, pays attention to ostentation, and is extravagant and wasteful. He always emphasizes his status as a duke—frankly speaking, he doesn't look like a real powerful duke, but suddenly picked up the title of grand duke upstart.
In the information obtained by Fatalia, Sivis Anderson's "disgusting" is in bold, black and bold fonts.
And...he's not loyal.
Just when Sivis had nothing to say and wanted to make a good impression on the Demon King, another group of forces also took action.
That is the delegation of humanity.
(First of all, readers can give up waiting for the update in the middle of the night, because when the chapter will be released depends on the review)
(Tsk, what a hassle.)
(There are still some today, but it is estimated that it will be released until tomorrow.)
Chapter 34 Empires on the Continent
When they came over, Fatalia didn't pay much attention to it, she just thought it was an ordinary nobleman who came up to talk, and when the leader really spoke, Fatalia couldn't help but look sideways at him.
The leader is a young man with blond hair and blue eyes. He looks only 25 or [-] years old, but he looks very handsome. He has a calm and majestic temperament. The clothes on his body are also very luxurious white dresses, and he looks like a person of noble birth. , even looks more aristocratic than the lion-headed Grand Duke of the Western Territory next to him.
He gave a chest salute to Ender, "Honorable Master of the Cairns Empire, His Majesty the Demon King of Cairns, I, Libby Reinhardt, congratulate you on behalf of the Reinhardt Empire."
Ender shifted his gaze away from Sivis, and looked at the young man who claimed to represent the Reinhardt Empire, "The first prince of Reinhardt... I know you, but I didn't expect that you were still in the diplomatic service. In the regiment, how did your father trust you to stay on the Demon Island?"
Lippit spread his hands helplessly, "Your Majesty the Demon King, you must know that your Cairns Empire can be said to be the most orderly and safest place in the entire Demon Island. Don't worry about safety, let alone the visiting missions? Besides, as the first prince, I still need to learn some experience. I just hope that His Majesty the Demon King will not tell my father the reason why I stay here... ..."
"Heh, it's funny what you said."
Ender seemed to be amused too, while Sivis Anderson, who was left alone, looked at Libby, and then at Ender, who seemed to be interested, opened his mouth to say something but didn't dare to interrupt Ender had no choice but to close his mouth aggrieved and backed away.
Fatalia also sat back on the chair, eating the cake while looking at Libby with interest.
She doesn't have information about Libby Reinhardt, but she knows the Reinhardt Empire.
The Reinhardt Empire, one of the strongest human nations on the continent, is different from the transcendent Theocracy of the Holy Light. It is an undoubted secular country, with the largest territory and population, rich products, and a regular military force. The most powerful country even has an army of extraordinary people. Its national power can be said to be terrifying, and many of the systems of the Keynesian Empire are also learned from the Reinhardt Empire.
But this didn't matter to Fatalia. She was more concerned about another aspect: he was from the mainland.
The mainland is different from the Demon Island. It is a place with a much wider environment and a better and more inclusive environment than the Demon Island. The various products there, including races, are far richer than the Demon Island.
Moreover, the first prince of the strongest human empire who came to the magic island from the mainland... This series of buffs smashed on the face looks like the protagonist of a traditional western fantasy work.
Fatalia observed the protagonist like this, eating her own cake in small bites.
At this time, Sivis also found his next conversation partner.
"His Royal Highness, this is the first time we meet [$&
Sivis stood in front of Fatalia, the shadow cast by his huge body covered Fatalia, he greeted politely, showing a smile with eight sharp teeth, it didn't seem like he was expressing Kindness, it seems to be threatening something.
Fatalia put a blank face, stuffed a piece of cake into her mouth, and made a silent evaluation in her heart.
Seeing Fatalia's unresponsive appearance, Sivis couldn't help but frowned, but before he could figure out how to deal with it, he felt someone put on his shoulder, and then a huge force came from his shoulder, Brutely pulling him back a few steps.
Silvestmon broke out in a cold sweat. You must know that although he didn't exercise too seriously, he was still a sixth-level fighter. Who could approach his back quietly and destroy his body so easily? Center of gravity? !
A carefree female voice came into his ears, "Hey, Sivis Anderson, you don't understand etiquette. Her Royal Highness is eating. What are you doing to join in the fun? What's the matter? I plan to give Your Highness extra food. ?”
OK, he got it, it was Tana.
One of the twelve generals, the furious Tana grabbed Sivis's shoulder, showing a somewhat malicious smile, to which Sivis could only smile again and again: "No, how dare I? I definitely didn't mean that .”
At the same time, he cursed bad luck in his heart.
Why would this crazy woman come out to disrupt the situation at such a time? !
If one of the twelve generals is the most difficult to provoke, then Tana is definitely at the top. Although her own strength is not at the level of the tenth level because she is still young, but the characteristic of rage makes her mood fluctuate greatly. , maybe when she is teased and blown up, she will directly tear it up for you.
Of course, the most important thing is that the sixth-level Sivis has absolutely no ability to fight back against the tenth-level Tana. Even if Tana suddenly gets nervous and wants to make a braised lion head for Fatalia on the spot, Sivis Apart from praying that His Majesty the Demon King can give Tana the punishment she deserves, she has no choice but to obediently hand over her head.
So now he is panicked by Tana's arm that is holding his throat, "Ahem! Ms. Tana, can you let me go?"
