The demon princess was defeated and captured? Sorry, I acted in it)

Although Xue Feiya's words are annoying, the questions she raises can easily spark discussion.

The nobles were whispering to each other, and many of them subconsciously judged that the biggest beneficiaries must be the demons, who had plundered money and land from the kingdom and reaped countless profits.

But...as the discussion progresses.

But they discovered the "other chess player" that Xue Feiya was referring to.

——The Theocracy of Corea.

Although the Demon King's army has been advancing, it is impossible for them to be without casualties, and the number is probably not small.

But if you think about the absolute advantage that the Correa Theocracy holds in this war...it's terrifying to contemplate.

They don't need to send a single soldier, nor do they need to pay any blood and tears. They just need to give some small benefits in the rear, and from time to time they can send weapons or magic crystal cannons to the kingdom in exchange for wealth. Orus also has to continue to borrow money from the Church to keep the army running.

Because of too much foreign debt...the Kingdom of Orus had previously discussed whether it could mortgage one-tenth of its territory to the Theocracy of Corea in order to continue the war.

Although this resolution was not passed, there is no need to think too much about what it represents about the current situation of the kingdom.

Many nobles have clenched their fists... and cursed the Correa Theocracy for taking advantage of the situation.

This has been going on for a long time.

When Felix was still alive, he acted arrogantly and domineeringly over their heads, even though he was obviously just a foreigner!

See the time is ripe.

Xue Feiya opened her narrowed eyes, shrugged and continued.

"Right, I just found that the Correa Theocracy is a bit too much. To be honest, my demon intelligence department recently conducted a survey. Before the Hundred Years War began, the treasury of your Orus was three times that of the Correa Theocracy. Now that the war has progressed to this day, guess what...Haha, the treasury of the Correa Theocracy is already thirty times that of yours!"

"...!"

There were almost simultaneous exclamations!

No one has investigated the authenticity of the data, because they only know that the money they have is indeed not as much as the nobles of the Correa Theocracy, which is the most intuitive data in itself.

But they don’t know that there is such a huge difference!

Ahahaha...actually, Xuefia's data is just nonsense.

However, the Theocracy has sucked the blood of the Kingdom so hard, so it should be about the same.

It can only be more, never less.

Strike while the iron is hot.

Xue Feiya spread her hands and walked along the red carpet towards the king.

The knights on both sides rushed to protect the king, but the king waved his hand at them, indicating that they need not be alert.

The knights hesitated and retreated to their original positions.

He stopped less than two meters away from the king.

This is where Xue Feiya’s proposal came from.

"So, your Majesty, King of Orus, we are playing chess, but there is a scumbag who keeps stealing chess pieces. Isn't this a very unpleasant thing? So I propose! Instead of continuing to fight, why don't we cooperate first and find out the parasites that are harming the people in the religious country, and then reconsider whether to fight or not. What do you think?"

The Celtic king is, after all, a veteran in the political arena.

His expression was no longer as disappointed as before, but his vigilance had not diminished in the slightest.

"Oh... Indeed, your proposal is very attractive. The kingdom has been devastated by the betrayal of the Theocracy and is suffering terribly. Felix is ​​an example. However... If that is all you have to say, I do not intend to agree to your proposal."

"Oh? Why?"

"Because your proposal does not bring any benefit to the demons. If there is no benefit, there must be no sincerity. Naturally, I have no reason to agree to it."

If it were a mediocre person, he might have been fooled.

But Celtic's answer convinced all the ministers present.

Yeah...what the Demon Princess said sounds reasonable.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't make sense.

The Theocracy sucks the blood of the Kingdom, making the Kingdom weaker and weaker. Doesn't that suit exactly what the demons want?

The Church is indirectly weakening the Kingdom, so the Demons can increase their offensive strength and take over the capital while the Kingdom is weak.

If you are unhappy with the Theocracy, then destroy the Kingdom first and then attack Correa. This is the reasonable order from the perspective of a powerful country.

In a word.

If the target was only the Theocracy of Corea, the demons would have no reason to cooperate with the kingdom.

So

...Is the Demon Princess trying to sow discord again?

The king knew clearly how to best protect the people when the neighbors on both sides of the country could not be trusted.

"No matter how shameless the people of the Church are, they are of the same origin as us, Orus... Thousands of years ago, we were a unified empire. They may have gained a lot of benefits over the years... But they don't want to see us destroyed by the demons, because by then, the Church of Correa will no longer have a barrier. So, if I cooperate with the Church, I can still survive in the cracks. But if I cooperate with the demons, there is only one way to go, which is destruction. They are not of my kind... Their hearts must be different... cough... cough cough cough!!"

Xue Feiya still had some admiration for the old king.

Wow...this old guy has a pretty clear mind, huh?

Livra hurriedly patted her father's back to help him calm down, and she also looked at Xuefia with a worried look.

What a dilemma this is...

Miss Xia Ya, you want to convince so many nobles present here... Without any preparation, this matter comes too suddenly and it is too difficult for you!

It’s okay, it’s okay, Livra~ Just take care of your father. I was really afraid that I would speak too harshly and mad him to death.

Originally speaking, Xue Feiya should have nothing to say at this point.

But actually...

Everything that just happened was just Xue Feiya's preparation for the main topic.

The bombshell she really wanted to reveal had just begun.

Xue Feiya turned around and walked towards Huang Zhu.

At the same time, the six wings suddenly spread out.

The dark wings surrounded by purple demonic currents suddenly made the hall seem even more depressing.

This time, the knights and members of the Wright family were ready for the battle.

But...

Xue Feiya just stared at the dark and deep sky outside the hall, as if thinking about something.

She seemed to be thinking about something.

But actually, I didn’t think about anything.

She was just waiting for the right moment to speak.

Okay, you're all nervous, right?

Then I will say it.

"You have been betrayed by the gods of your race."

"The human god [Ameles] has returned to the world. But unfortunately, as a fellow human and her people, she chose to stand on the side of the Correa Theocracy and gave up on you."

"The suggestion I just made is what the demons are worried about. In the face of this unknown situation, we have no intention of fighting your country. The gods of the human race are the biggest threat to our race. This is the reason you want, King."

...?

She seemed to be telling some myth.

But that serious look seemed like he was telling the truth.

Too fake to be believable.

And it's so real that it's chilling.

Since there are doubts, then questioning is inevitable.

"Witch, what do you want to say? There is a limit to fooling others! Gods only exist in myths! How can they really exist?!"

"That's right! And even if gods really exist, we are still human beings, no different from the people of Correa. God will never abandon his people!"

Xuefia's six wings trembled once - and again.

That's her laughing.

She was laughing secretly.

She was laughing.

She was secretly laughing at the God's partiality.

She is mocking the people for being abandoned without even realizing it.

"Haha...you are all foolish! God will not abandon you? Hey, when the demons killed you all, where was your God? When your wives and children were separated and your family was broken up, where was the so-called God? Did she show up?"

"It's only been a few days since the Colosseum Rebellion...have you forgotten everything?"

"Who is going to kill your king and your royal family?"

"Who told Felix about the large magic crystal cannon technology that he could conjure out of thin air?"

"Why do you humans have to buy magic crystal cannons from the Theocracy to fight against the demons?"

"Aren't you guys also doing research and development? Why is it that after a hundred years, there is still no progress?"

"The development of the Church is beyond your imagination, isn't it? Where do their many followers come from? Why can they, as human beings, sing praises to the gods, while you can only sit and wait to die?! Use your brains to think about it!"

A delicate cry, deafening.

Xue Feiya was indeed acting, and it was very tiring.

But...she was really angry.

Xuefeiya is powerful, but there are things she cannot do.

For example - she couldn't erase hatred from the hearts of those who killed.

She certainly has the ability to stop a major war.

But with this useless redemption, hatred will continue to accumulate and then intensify.

so...

If there really are so-called gods in this world.

Then when the people you created on the battlefield are killing each other in madness and meaningless blood is flowing like a river.

Where are you guys?

A series of questions, every word hit Aulus's sore spot.

In the past hundred years, the positions of Aulus and Correa seemed to have been turned upside down.

The Theocracy of Correa has indeed achieved many things that many other kingdoms could never imagine.

No one wanted to say it, but the terrifying white light that shone across the sky from the Colosseum shattered their last bit of confidence.

That was all done by the Church...

Even the lives of the royal family... were saved by the demon princess.

But no one has ever asked why these sudden changes occurred.

Now an outsider from the demon clan has asked this question.

But they didn't know how to answer.

Or, I dare not think too deeply about it.

The situation seemed to have reached a stalemate. They were unwilling to believe what Xuefia Halder said, but they didn't know how not to believe it.

It is impossible to draw a clear conclusion between belief and disbelief.

And this time.

The crisp sound of high heels touching the crystal floor came from the direction of the Wright family.

Divert the whole audience's attention.

Xialet clenched his fists, as if he was also affected by Xuefei's words.
