The hanging golden chandeliers are symmetrical in beauty, the crystal floor is spotless and can reflect people's shadows, and in the middle is a huge long solid wood table. There are many chairs on both sides of the long table. Each chair is inlaid with gold edges and is shiny. The seats are particularly far apart, making full use of the entire conference hall.
Since the council hall is where the kingdom speaks to other races, the layout here is bound to be elegant.
It doesn't really matter how the place is decorated...
The important thing is, when Xue Feiya turned her head and looked at the row of seats belonging to the demon leader...
——Her heart skipped a beat!
It is already known that the diplomatic official, Hanks, the four-winged demon, is coming with his diplomatic team.
But the guy sitting in the middle...
She, she, she...why did she come here? !
In the middle of the demon area, there is an important demon leader who comes temporarily.
——It was the second princess of the demon clan, Belys Halder.
The elegant girl, like a silver-white butterfly, half covered her face with her hands and yawned lightly. The demon diplomats around her were terrified and served her tea and snacks from the kitchen. Even though Bellis said with a smile that it was not necessary, how could they dare to neglect her?
Hanks is in his forties and is wearing the special attire for Demon Clan diplomats, which is a simple black swallowtail suit.
With cold sweat dripping down his face, he pushed his reflective single-frame glasses, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he kept reminding the demons who came with him not to neglect the care of the princess.
Hiss... I haven't heard from the Demon King that the Second Princess will also come to the diplomatic arena, so at least she should say hello in advance.
Originally, Hanks thought that when his team arrived, he would put on a cold and intimidating attitude, so as to create pressure on the human race in terms of momentum.
As a result, the second princess suddenly arrived, and they could only turn into waiters and serve tea and water!
Forget it, don’t worry about the momentum or not, give priority to taking care of our Second Princess.
But it must be said that as a member of the royal family, Bellis can always show her extraordinary demeanor as a royal family in such occasions.
She held the teacup lightly with her fingers, squinted her eyes and tasted the human tea carefully. Then she looked at the ripples in the tea and chuckled.
"Sir Hanks, I'm really sorry for coming here so suddenly and causing trouble to your diplomatic corps."
"Your Highness, you are too polite!" Hanks stood up and bowed to the royal family with the etiquette of the demon leader. "Your coming here to supervise is a recognition of our diplomatic corps. It is indeed a pity that you did not inform us in advance... No, this is a test for us!"
"Hehe, no need, the human race's representatives will be here soon, so don't mess things up because of me being here. As for me, on the one hand, my mother asked me to come over and take a look, and on the other hand... hm?"
"Your Highness?"
Hanks asked again, but Bellis was no longer in the mood to answer him.
Because in the rippling reflection of the tea, Bellis accidentally saw a small figure that was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar.
If the Bellis just now was a cold, powerful, impeccable and elegant princess, then when she looked up in surprise and saw that equally surprised little face, even for just a moment.
Xuefiya also saw the look that Bellis gave her, and her excited expression suddenly became as docile as a puppy!
However, Bellis is good at suppressing her emotions deep in her heart.
This expression is almost impossible to capture with the naked eye. She is still the cold and wise second princess of the demon clan and the commander of the fifth legion.
Xue Feiya's eyebrows were twitching wildly...and she couldn't stop at all.
"Hiss...Xia, I want to go home. It's boring here. Very boring!"
"Don't say that. Didn't you say last night that you hoped to find an opportunity to help you sisters reconcile?"
"I...I just said it casually because of the momentum! I'm really not good at dealing with her! Look at her, she sits there like a big shot!"
"This is the state a princess should be in when she is abroad. Xue Fei, you should learn more from her about this."
"Hey, learn from her, has she learned how to fish? I will learn from her, I just sneered."
"..."
Well, Xuefei’s misogyny strikes again.
Of course Xiaya was willing to respect her choice. If Xuefei insisted on leaving, Xiaya would accompany her back home.
But...
Even though Xue Fei's steps were stiff and her face was full of reluctance, she still sat down at the front of the audience seats with a stern face.
It seems that snow
Fei is also willing to continue to make some efforts for the harmony of her family~
Xia also chose to sit in the gallery with her.
Actually, as a hero, it would be no problem for her to sit on the human race's negotiating table, but Xia would definitely be more willing to accompany her~
And just when Xiaya was sitting next to Xuefei and chatting with her in a low voice.
The demon clan's diplomatic corps suddenly discovered a problem.
When serving tea to the Second Princess just now, His Highness at least said very humbly, "No need" and "Don't be so reserved."
But now, Her Royal Highness the Second Princess suddenly remained silent.
It seems like he is in deep thought, or he is accumulating anger!
Did we do something wrong and made her angry...? !
Hanks quickly called on his second or third wing diplomats to return to their seats and stop adding fuel to the fire!
He guessed that Her Royal Highness the Princess might be angry because she felt that they completely lacked the dignity that the demons should have in the outside world.
As for what actually happened, probably only Bellis herself knows.
The demons took their positions.
At the same time, the human race's diplomatic delegation also entered the venue from the passage on the other side.
Walking in the front was a white-haired old man who was in a hurry. He was not tall, and his hair was a little dry and messy, but his eyes were bright. Judging from his brisk pace despite his old age, he must be a capable man.
Xia leaned over and whispered in Xuefei's ear.
"The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Orus, Rom Langley, has won a lot of benefits for the kingdom in diplomatic occasions over the past few decades. The king thinks highly of him. Rom is the one who can't stand Phylex's mean behavior the most. He has repeatedly suggested in front of the throne that Phylex should be sent back to the Theocracy."
"It's rare for a country to have loyal ministers. Well, I suggest that he should not be too radical and should proceed step by step. Otherwise, I'm afraid he will be bitten by that dog of Felix."
Roma walked with great vigor and determination.
He placed the heavy document in his hand on the table, and a dull and heavy sound echoed around him.
Presumably, that thick document is what he came to negotiate today.
As the diplomatic core of a country, he has to make all kinds of preparations.
In comparison... Hanks from the demon clan brought nothing with him and seemed to have prepared nothing.
But from his diplomatic corps all sat with their wings spread out, symbolizing strength.
It seemed as if he had brought everything and was prepared for everything.
After Roma's team was seated, a stunning girl with black hair and dressed in an elegant dress walked out from the end of the passage.
That was Livra Aulus.
In formal occasions, the third princess exudes a natural and beautiful temperament in her every move and every step.
The human race all stood up again to salute. No matter which country they were from, they showed unconditional respect and praise to the royal family.
After all, the royal family is the foundation and medal of a country.
Livra smiled and pressed her palms, indicating that everyone should just sit down and continue preparing for the negotiations that would begin later.
Although according to her status, she will have to sit in the middle of the human team later, but this does not prevent her from coming here today just as an observer and learner.
Livra is actually a little nervous...
When she passed by the gallery, she found that the two people she trusted and admired the most were also present. The tension in her heart immediately dissipated!
Woohoo...you guys are really...Ms. Xia Ya, did you come here specially to give me strength and support? Thank you!
Xia Ya: Thank you, no.
Livra was so moved that with tears in her eyes, she patted Miss Xia's shoulder with her delicate hands like white onions to express her gratitude.
But just as this action ended...
From the center of the demon seat.
——Then there was the crisp sound of a teacup falling to the ground.
Hearing the noise, the knights surrounding the meeting hall immediately went on alert and drew their swords.
At the same time, all the demons flapped their wings and stood on guard, gathering their magic.
This tense atmosphere seemed like it could turn into a conflict at any moment.
However, this worrying scene did not actually occur.
Bellis calmly picked up the broken pieces of the teacup and placed them on the edge of the table.
The Second Princess was not in a hurry. She shook her head and looked around slowly, smiling faintly to express her apology.
"Ah... Excuse me, the tea of the human race is indeed different from that of the demon race. It has a rich aroma. I wanted to savor it carefully but accidentally knocked over the teacup... Hmm? Seeing you all so nervous, could it be that this teacup is quite expensive? No problem, no problem, I'll put it in the diplomatic account as compensation later. Hanks, remember that our demon race owes the Kingdom of Orus a carved teacup."
"OK,
Your Highness. "
"Yeah, I hope that everyone from the demons and humans can relax their behavior and at least not be too startled. We have no ill intentions in today's negotiations, but if you cross the line first... then it will be hard to say what will happen?"
Every word of these words rings true and carries a lot of weight.
At Rom's signal, the soldiers put down their spears and swords and stood by again.
Little did he know that cold sweat had already seeped out of Roma's forehead.
This second princess of the demon clan...is not simple.
She used a teacup to test the attitude of the human race. If the human soldiers were not well-trained and no one acted rashly, the demons would have seized on the shortcomings of "the human race is insincere" and "using force first although it was clearly a negotiation" before the negotiations began, and everything would have seemed extremely passive.
That was a close call…that was a close call.
Moreover, she used this method to imply that the human race was stingy and had no vision, and also to disrupt the morale of the human race and boost the morale of her own side.
Could it be that the demon diplomat Hanks was just a puppet, used to confuse the public, and the sudden visit of the second demon princess was the core of this diplomacy?
Actually...that's not what Belles meant by throwing the teacup just now, right?
She was really just reminding someone - don't be too jumpy and be more restrained.
Livra was a little dazed because of the noise just now.
She looked left and right, not noticing that her hand was still on Miss Xia Ya's shoulder.
Xia frowned and looked at the little hands and shoulders, then quickly straightened her head and gave a reminder.
"Your Highness? It's time for you to go and take your seat."
"...?OK!"
Livra pulled her hand back as if she had been electrocuted, and at the same time she heard Miss Xia sigh lightly and say something meaningless.
"Hey, Livra, luckily you acted quickly. I told you, otherwise there would be big trouble."
"?"
Didn't you see that, during those few seconds when your hand was still on my shoulder...
That girl, Bellis, was clearly "smiling" and preparing to smash the second teacup!
How many teacups do you humans have that are big enough for her to break?
Look at Livra trotting to the middle of the human diplomatic team and sitting down.
The teacup was not thrown again, and Xia's brows did not frown any more.
The naive Princess Livra didn't even know that her small action almost caused a diplomatic incident.
All personnel from both sides are in place.
This meeting was of the highest level. According to common sense, the king should have been present in person to participate in the negotiations.
However, talks between countries should be equal, and the Demon King and Queen announced that they would not come.
Then the Celtic king could not be present.
Otherwise, would he, as the head of a country, have to negotiate with the other side's diplomats in person? That would be totally unequal.
