Chapter 245: Rivals for the Throne
Victoria's political system is relatively unique on the continent of Terra.
Monarchies are common, but dual monarchies are not.
Although Leitania had twin queens before, they were just an exception under special circumstances. Leitania's system was still just a simple monarch and electors.
If things develop normally, after the Gemini Queens abdicate, there will only be one person, not two, who will be the next in line.
Of course, that was all in the past. After the Witch King was resurrected, the twin queens, who had had enough of being constrained, swept the electoral forces with their individual might, and then suppressed the domestic nobles together with the Witch King. No one knew where Leitania would go in the future.
Back to Victoria, the battle for the throne of Victoria, who was in the dual monarchy, was also very interesting.
Not everyone is trying their best to get the supreme position.
These people were divided into two groups.
A group of people vying for the throne of the Drak.
Another group competes for the throne of the Aslan clan.
The fight for the throne of the Aslan clan can be described as a fierce battle, with each force showing off its own unique abilities. The various forces take turns to appear on the stage, and the fight is extremely lively!
The Drak tribe is much inferior to them. In comparison, this side seems a bit deserted.
The reason is quite simple.
Because the Drake clan... is extinct!
Those who are currently competing for the throne are all people who had marriages with the Drak tribe in their early years and have some of their blood in them.
On Terra, people of different races can breed with each other, and in most cases, the offspring will only show the physical characteristics of one of the parents.
In rare cases, a child may possess the physical characteristics of both groups. Such a child will be named "Chimera".
Chimera has higher talents, but generally has a short lifespan due to various genetic diseases.
There is no Chimaera among the contenders for the throne of the Drak clan.
They generally possess characteristics of various other races.
A group of Filins with cat ears or Vaifans with horns on their heads competing for the throne of Draco...it's a joke!
Not only Sakaban, the Agor, looked strange.
Even many people in Victoria are arguing about this.
Quite a number of people believe that no matter what, you have to find a Drake to inherit the throne of Drake, right?
A cat-eared Ferrin with Draco blood? This is really outrageous!
Therefore, the fight for the throne of Draco is still at the legal issue of whether those contenders for the throne have the right to inherit the throne or not, as opposed to other forces in the country.
The stage where competitors fight each other is still far from coming.
...Or is it possible that it will not come at all?
If their argument fails, all current candidates for the throne of Drake will be eliminated and will lose the qualification to compete!
The main force arguing with them at the moment is from Aslan's side.
In a country with dual monarchy, if there is only one king, the power of that king will inevitably expand, so all the Aslans are preventing this group of people from competing for another throne.
Although they were almost mortal enemies with each other, they were still united in facing this matter.
Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for one king to prevent another king from ascending the throne, not to mention that these Aslans have not yet become kings.
But who can blame this group of people for not being able to pick out a competitor with the racial characteristics of Drake? This allows Aslan to stand on the high ground of legal principles and attack those below at will!
Agor's exploration team, named the Mission, was entrusted with an important historical mission, so they naturally made all kinds of preparations before setting off.
Not to mention other things, the Agor officials have prepared a lot of money and other things for the team.
I can’t say how much more, but if all those valuable treasures were sold off, at least it would be no problem to buy a mobile city!
As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. After finding the local intelligence organization in Sakaban and using money to pave the way, we were able to obtain a lot of non-confidential but very important information.
Looking at the competition for the throne of Drake, Sakaban understood why most of the people who approached him were from Aslan's side.
It turns out these guys can’t even handle the most basic thing like legality!
In his mind, Sakaban crossed out everyone on Drake's side from his list of potential partners.
He doesn't want to work so hard for a long time and then get nothing in return!
As for Aslan.
The situation is a little more complicated.
On the surface, all parties were still maintaining harmony, but secretly, they were all in chaos.
Not long ago, an assassination occurred in which a close confidant of one of Aslan's contenders for the throne was assassinated.
If this kind of behavior of directly attacking the other party's important ministers were to go one step further, it would probably be an attempt to assassinate the king!
In the past, things might not have taken the worst possible turn.
But now is the era of coupling!
The sacredness of the monarch is fading, and the world's discourse power is leaning towards the strong! This can be seen from those who are vying for the throne.
The fundamental purpose of their fight for the throne is not to become a great monarch, but to use the convenience of the monarch to make the entire country serve his path to becoming stronger!
They want to acquire various resources, take control of those key scientific research departments, and do private research for themselves, so as to go one step further on the road to coupling!
In the eyes of all competitors, this throne is not sacred at all. It is just a tool that helps them become stronger!
Since the throne has no sacredness, then other competitors naturally have no sacredness to protect them.
For them, directly making their competitors disappear physically is not an option!
However, most of the competitors have powerful forces behind them. You are from the Victorian Industrial Group, I am a Victorian transportation tycoon, and the other is from a Victorian bureaucratic family... We all live in the same country, intertwined with each other, and many of us are even closely related. Hundreds of years ago, we might have been relatives.
Therefore, these forces do not want to completely break off relations with other forces... At least given the importance of the throne in this era, it is not worth it for them to do so.
Unless something new happens.
Sakaban glanced at the profile of Aslan's competitors.
The Drak tribe is almost extinct, and the Aslan tribe is stronger than the Drak tribe, but its strength is limited.
The royal family was not very populous.
Many competitors are people who have participated in the previous round of competition for the throne and failed.
There are only a few new competitors.
There are also some special problems.
Sakaban's eyes swept over the newcomers and locked onto the woman named 'Alexandrina Vina Victoria'.
"Let's go visit and take a look..."
Chapter 246: The Young King of Advancement
There was a reason why Sakaban chose to visit the 'newcomer' named 'Alexandrina Vina Victoria' first instead of others.
Sakaban has not yet made a final decision on whether or not to join the battle for Victoria's throne. One of the important factors that determine whether he will join is whether there is a suitable person who is suitable to be supported by Agor and will not burn bridges after crossing the river.
This person, Sakaban felt, could not be found among the former losers who had competed for the throne once and were now competing for the second time.
On the one hand, strictly speaking, the other party is missing a piece of the legal basis for their advancement, and there may be twists and turns in the future. On the other hand, if they were really good enough, they should have won last time instead of ending up like they are now.
Moreover, the newcomers make more sense to Agor.
It is said that adding icing on the cake is not as good as helping someone in need.
Those old hands all have the support of their own solid and stable forces.
As for the newcomers...everyone understands.
Even if someone is willing to invest, the relationship may not be close.
This will give Agor a lot of opportunities.
After making the decision, Sakaban did not go straight away. He chose to return to his team’s base first.
He had to take Skadi with him.
In this dangerous foreign country, it would be safer to have a master by your side.
If anything unexpected happens during this trip, even if you die, someone will know how you died, so as to avoid dying inexplicably and putting the delegation in a dilemma and being taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives.
Sakaban's worries are actually necessary. There is no strict rule of "not killing envoys" on the Terra continent, especially in this era of confusion after the rise of coupling.
Various low-probability events may continue to occur in reality.
Acting in Victoria in the name of a diplomatic mission, they represent the face of Agor. It would be fine if they could not find help, but if their actions caused new enemies for Agor, who is already in a difficult situation, it would make the situation worse.
Then they really are Agor's eternal sinners!
After returning to the base, Sakaban told Skadi the intelligence he had collected and his plans.
Although the role they play is similar to that of a security captain, the strong are the strong, and their right to speak overrides their external identities.
Sakaban still has to discuss some important matters with her.
If the two people's wishes go against each other, the journey of the entire team will be difficult.
Fortunately, although Skadi was unwilling to involve the delegation in this chaos, she still respected Sakaban's decision.
In Skadi's opinion, he is a fighter, and it would be more appropriate for Sakaban to decide how to provide assistance to Agora.
She would only pull Sakaban and others away when the situation took a turn for the worse, to stop him from gambling on Agor's future. As for the rest, she would only give advice and would not interfere with his decision.
The two men left the mission residence without taking anyone else with them.
This was a private visit, and if it was made too public, it would send some signals that would be unfavorable to his next actions.
.
.
.
The rise of coupling has brought about too many changes, and an Aslan girl named Vina is one of the people who has been severely affected by these changes.
She has the qualification to inherit the throne, so with the help of the giant beast Gawain, she left the royal family, concealed her royal identity, wandered around, and met a group of people from the Glasgow Gang in Arundinium. By chance, she became their leader.
If fate had followed its normal trajectory, a powerful person in Kazdel would have headed for Victoria, where the throne was vacant, and started a war, forcing them to leave their homes.
Then a series of stories happened.
But under the influence of the potion and coupling, Kazdel started an internal war to stabilize the country before fighting against foreign enemies. Now only two royal courts are involved, but judging from the trend of the war, it is possible that other royal courts will also be involved.
This place has the most immortal species in the entire Terra continent. Once chaos breaks out...
Back to Vina, Kazdel didn't call, but she didn't live a peaceful life for long because of that.
Because the battle for the throne has begun.
Those strong candidates each have their own supporters behind them, and some people who should not have participated are involved.
But there are always some big forces that are just a little bit short of being qualified and have no chance to participate, but they also want to try hard to see if they can get a share of the cake. They unite and look for suitable candidates to support them.
Those with a solid base naturally wouldn't let them in to disrupt the balance and get an extra piece of the pie, so they could only find a way out on their own, and that way was Vina.
A person with royal features, who shows off in public all day long, even if he is disguised, but after the popularization of the Holy Healing Potion, how can such a little disguise deceive those evolvers with amazing perception?
In the past, I was able to find someone, but I didn't want to look for one. For some people, one less competitor for the throne is a good thing. She likes to be ordinary, so let her be ordinary, so she can still live a stable life.
But now it’s different. Even if she wants to live a normal life, the powerful people in Victoria will not agree.
So, as a puppet of the big powers, Alexandrina Vina Victoria joined the battle for the throne.
"Meeting distinguished guests..." The servants who are responsible for taking care of her daily life will report today's schedule to Vina at a fixed time every day.
Occasionally there are some unexpected changes and urgent notifications will be made, like now.
Although she was born into a noble family, Vina has always lived in confusion, not knowing where her life should go.
She opened the royal family for some reasons.
