Reincarnated in another world, I also want to be invincible at the beginning

As he spoke, the clown showed an arrogant smile on his face.

Because of him, the border earl and chief magician, no other knight with a title can compare to him except the sword master. Moreover, the sword master can only be compared to him in terms of martial arts, but his political status is far inferior to that of the powerful earl.

If he had not really tried to assist Emilia in the past, Emilia would have become the most powerful candidate for the king based on his status and means, and there was no possibility that she would become the least favored countryman. But now, the Clown Count has been forced to make a choice, stand in line, and start to offer support with all his might.

"It doesn't matter. It's just a formality after all."

Bafansi didn't pay too much attention to this conference.

In the final analysis, this conference was just a formality because all the candidates had appeared, so they came out to let everyone get to know each other, and to say something nice and canvass votes. However, in this extraordinary world, such an act would not be tolerated.

In fact, the law is just a formality. In the end, who will be the king will still be determined by fists.

It is not ruled out that there will be idealists who believe in evolution, but she never thought of being a wise king from the beginning, so she doesn't care about the ideas of these idealists at all. She doesn't intend to talk about any big words like governing policies and ideals when she goes there for the formalities. She just shows up and proves her identity as a candidate for the king. After the formalities are over, it will be her stage.

"Roswaal, I think you have prepared everything I asked you to prepare, right?"

The Clown Count stood up straight and saluted, saying, "Of course, I have already made all the preparations you requested. After the King's Election Conference is over, I promise to invite all the candidates for the King's Election to your venue."

"very good."

She never thought about going through the same process as the others. Once the royal election officially began, she would immediately get rid of all the other candidates. By then, no matter how strong the public opinion was, it would not be able to stop her from ascending the throne. After all, there were no other candidates.

You have to know that not just any candidate for the king can run for election. They must be recognized by the dragon god. That is, only those who are recognized by the dragon badge can become candidates. This country was established under the protection of the dragon god. They do not have the power to choose their own king. Therefore, she does not need to win over any nobles or create any reputation among the people. She just needs to get rid of the other candidates for the king.

Although there would be many nobles who would not obey her after she sat on the throne, with her strength, did she still need to care whether those nobles obeyed or not? If they did not obey, she would just kill them and replace them with obedient people. To put it nicely, they were nobles, but to put it bluntly, they were just a group of dogs. She didn't mind killing people and making a river of blood to establish her authority.

As for whether this would destroy the foundation of the kingdom, she didn't really want to be the king. After she completed her own business and left the kingdom, would the kingdom be destroyed? What did it have to do with her? In the final analysis, her role this time was as a villain. The condition for passing the level was to take away an item, which was actually no different from robbing. Of course, if she had the ability to steal, she could steal. But the problem was that she didn't have the brains and skills, so she had to be a robber.

"Pack your things and prepare to go to the capital."

After arranging everything.

Bafansi led his group to the royal capital.

at the same time.

The rest of the chosen kings are also preparing for this conference.

There are careless ones.

There are serious preparations.

Some wanted to escape.

Regardless of what they think.

The King Selection Conference opened as scheduled.

same time.

On the Witch Cult side, several Archbishops of Sin also began to take action and headed towards the King's Election Conference. They were going there to test the half-elf.

After arriving at the royal capital.

The group of Bafansi rarely went out. While the other king candidates were privately testing each other, or developing offline and winning over other neutral nobles, they seemed to have given up struggling and stayed in the house waiting for the conference to begin.

But even if they did nothing.

There are still many people paying attention to their movements.

After all, the current Emilia is completely different from the original Emilia. She possesses strength that even the Sword Saint recognizes, and she also privately takes in the famous killer Hunter. In addition, there have been rumors that Count Roswaal seems to want to assassinate the Chosen King. Now that they see Count Roswaal in the queue, they will naturally be curious about the methods of the Chosen King.

Some nobles who originally did not think highly of Emilia also began to hesitate at this moment, because they could tell from some events in the past that this half-elf not only did not have a good reputation, but even Roswaal was not sincere in assisting her, so they were not optimistic about her. But now, this half-elf not only suddenly showed her terrifying strength, but also conquered Roswaal through the assassination incident of the Hunter of the Intestines.

If you look at it this way.

The matter of this chosen king becomes mysterious.

The intelligence obtained in the past is even more incomprehensible.

It was hard for them to believe that the weak half-elf would undergo such a big change overnight, so they could only think that everything in the past was the performance of Emilia and Roswaal. As a half-elf, she was not only unpopular, but also heavily watched by the Witch Cult. That was why she had to act incompetent and weak to paralyze her opponents, and only showed her fangs when the King's Selection Conference really began.

Some people also think.

Now is not the best time to show your fangs.

They thought Emilia should continue to pretend.

But some people also think.

If she doesn't show her strength now, then by the time everyone has chosen their camp, even if she is very capable, it will be difficult for her to attract talent. So it is a good idea to expose herself at this time.

But they don't know

They were just overthinking it all.

But it’s no wonder these people think this way.

Because they could never have imagined that Emilia, who was qualified as the chosen one and had the Sword Master to endorse and guarantee her identity, had actually been replaced long ago.

There are more and more tourists in the royal capital.

The Witch's Cult's subordinates also took advantage of this lively opportunity to sneak in. The kingdom's high-ranking officials never imagined that when their defense was at its strongest and even the Sword Master was present, the Witch's Cult, a group of rats hiding in the gutter, would be bold enough to run to the capital to attack the Chosen King.

However, in reality, the bishops of the Witch Cult simply looked down on these high-ranking officials of the kingdom. Even the Sword Master was not taken seriously by them. What they were really afraid of was the dragon, which they didn't know whether it was still alive.

But Emilia is the 'container' they identify, so even if it is possible to lure out the dragon, they still want to put Emilia through this test of love!

At this time, unless the jealous witch Shatira jumps out on the spot, no one can do anything.

The day when the King's Election Conference begins.

Yabinshi changed into a black dress and came to the scene with Roswaal, who was dressed in formal clothes. However, even though Roswaal was going to attend this kind of conference, he still had the same clown makeup on his face that had not changed for four hundred years, wasting his chief magician's ceremonial robe.

But no one present dared to say anything more about this.

Because even though there were only two people, Yabanshi and Roswaal, the aura they displayed was more terrifying than all of them combined.

Roswaal also knew what his master was going to do, so he was too lazy to run over and greet the elders of the Council of Sages in a hypocritical manner. He just followed his master, standing in a corner watching the people in the venue, with a smile on his face that seemed to carry a bit of cheap sympathy.

"That's the legendary..."

Many people looked at the half-elf secretly.

It is indeed as rumored.

A head of silver hair.

Although extremely beautiful.

But many people couldn't help but shudder.

Because this face is exactly the same as the description of the witch, especially the aura emanating from Emilia now, many people can't help but wonder in their hearts that this might be a real witch.

If it was still the same weak Emilia, they would surely have despised and hated her, but now they instinctively felt fear and awe towards Emilia. Even though this seemed to further confirm the claim that this half-elf was the reincarnation of a witch, no one present dared to comment on it.

They dared to insult and laugh at ordinary half-elves who seemed to be the reincarnation of a witch, but they would never dare to insult a real witch.

During the entire admission process.

Only Julius came over to say hello to Bafensi, but in fact, Julius was only thinking about his old relationship with Emilia, and he didn't know how to evaluate Emilia now.

Reinhard hesitated for a long time and did not go up to ask. In fact, he was very suspicious of Emilia's identity in his heart, and he also knew that he was being used, because at that time he only testified for Emilia's identity as the Chosen King, and did not confirm whether Emilia was replaced by someone else. However, he had no evidence, and the result of the blessing also showed that "Emilia is Emilia", so he did not come out to explain, and became the guarantor of Bafen Si for no reason. However, whether it was Reinhard's intuition or the strangeness of the dragon sword, he was full of doubts about the authenticity of Emilia.

But the problem is that he has no evidence.

When Reinhard was paying attention to Emilia.

Bafan Si actually noticed the situation of the Sword Saint. To be honest, she did not expect that the sword inherited from the Sword Saint's family could resonate with her. If she had not traveled through time and space this time, she would have doubted whether she had inherited the bloodline of the Sword Saint's family.

And it is precisely because of this restless sword.

This caused Reinhardt to become even more suspicious of her.

However, she did not expect that the Sword Master was so magnanimous. He did not stand up to refute even after being used by her. Even until now, he had no intention of standing up to expose her.

She could guess that Reinhard might have some reservations.

But it's a pity.

As soon as today's conference ends.

You, the sword master, will never stand a chance again.

As the king elects arrived, a bell rang throughout the capital, announcing the official start of the king election meeting.

[Chapter 13: Dear King Chosen]

In front of the throne room, the ministers of the Sage Council discussed the origin of the kingdom, the alliance between the dragon and the kingdom, and other miscellaneous things before finally getting to the point of the conference. They said to the four people standing in front, "Everyone, please show us your dragon balls—"

Although all the chosen kings present were impatient with his lengthy opening, they still took out their own chosen king badges. Each badge had a dragon ball on it. The dragon ball would only emit its original light in the hands of the candidates. Emilia's dragon ball was red, and the dragon balls of the other chosen kings also had different colors.

"As you can see, every candidate here is qualified to be the Dragon Priestess..." The minister wanted to continue speaking his manuscript, but this time he was interrupted before he could finish.

"Is that enough?"

The one who interrupted him was one of the candidates, a king-chosen one from the common people. Like Emilia, she was a "country girl". However, if we compare them carefully, Emilia is not a commoner, while this king-chosen one is a real person who killed people from the slums by his own means.

The genius who emerged had already become a business tycoon in the kingdom before becoming the chosen one.

Her name is 'Anastasia Hexin', she is the president of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce and also the lord who has the loyalty of [Best Knight] Yurius. In the eyes of this knight, Anastasia is the most suitable king to bring innovation to the kingdom today. Her endless desire and ambition will surely drive the kingdom towards a more prosperous future.

Anastasia was born into a poor family and was a businessman. She didn't care about the history and rules of the kingdom. The reason she wanted to become king was simply to take the kingdom's "treasure" into her pocket. Although she was indeed born in a slum, she had no so-called righteousness or ideals. She was not a reformer, but just a pure businessman.

Naturally, she couldn't listen to what the minister said, and even thought from the bottom of her heart that it was just a waste of her precious time. You know, every minute she wasted here is money, so she interrupted the minister and took the initiative to say: "Rather than wasting time here, I would rather know the core reason for summoning us."

"Makes sense."

Another voice sounded.

The one who spoke was another chosen one.

Moreover, she was the chosen king favored by the ministers of the Council of Sages and many nobles, and had a deep friendship with the former royal family. Born into a noble family, Crusch Karsten had inherited the family business, the Duke's Mansion, at the age of 17. Now she was a well-known war goddess in the kingdom. In addition, she had an unclear relationship with the deceased prince, so she was supposed to be the queen. Therefore, from the moment she was confirmed as a candidate, she received a lot of support.

Compared with other candidates, both the Knights Templar and the Council of Sages would rather see her become the new king.

But according to the information Roswaal investigated, Crusch herself did not seem to like interacting with these nobles. And from some of her actions, she seemed to have quite radical ideas, wanting to abolish the current rules of the kingdom and initiate reforms.

But no matter what, this person is indeed the only one among all the king candidates who seems to have the qualities of a true king.

At least this is the conclusion that Yabinshi came to after reading the information about all the Chosen Kings. Although Crusch's ideas are a bit radical and her methods are a bit immature, if compared with the other Chosen Kings, she is really much better.

After all, what kind of people are the other chosen kings?

But now Crusch's ideas are still just ideas after all. At least now, there are only a few people who can discover her thoughts. Not everyone can collect so much information like the clown Roswaal. At this time, the Sage Council and the Knights do not know that the candidate they are most optimistic about is actually the most dangerous person for them, the old people who adhere to old ideas.

In comparison, Anastasia simply wants the kingdom and doesn't care about these things at all. She is the kind of king that best suits what they want.

For the nobles, there should be no better king than a king who has both the ability to make money and the desire to expand. However, these nobles and ministers of the kingdom cannot let go of their face. Perhaps it is because they have lived too steadily under the protection of the Dragon God. They have only learned the superficial ways of the nobles, but do not know that true nobles must not only have pride, but also have a flexible bottom line.

Yabinshi watched the commotion caused by Crusch's words and stood in a corner without expressing any opinion.

The ministers of the Council of Sages did not expect that a noble-born king-elect, Crusch, would dislike their showmanship, so they could not help but start arguing with her. However, after a few words of debate, Crusch revealed that he had no idea of ​​the purpose of this king election meeting, and even said foolishly, "Isn't this an invitation to them to attend the cocktail party?" Such a joke came out.

Roswaal stood next to Bafansi at this time and whispered in her ear: "The head of Karlsten is currently preparing an army to fight against monsters, so she doesn't know much about what's happened recently. She doesn't even know about your changes, hehe..."

There was contempt and arrogance in the old man's words towards the young man. To this old man who had lived for four hundred years, Crusch, the candidate favored by everyone, was actually just that.

“No, this time we are gathering all the candidates not for a banquet. Lord Crusch is still so humorous. We are inviting you all here because Reinhardt of the Knights told us some time ago that he has found the last candidate.”

Crusch opened his mouth, turned around and glared at the cat-eared knight standing in the Knights Templar. The other party responded with an apologetic expression, because it was this knight who told her that the Sages' Council had summoned them to hold a banquet, and she foolishly believed it.

But the main reason why she is so straightforward is because of her protective skills.

Her protection can detect lies, which makes her seem a bit honest, because she never worries that someone will lie to her. However, for the guardian knights who know her ability well, there are always ways to bypass this ability and play tricks on her.

There was another king who, like the Eighth Fan Si, did not participate in this farce. This king crossed his arms in front of his chest, with an arrogant look on his face, as if to say that he was unwilling to participate in the farce.

This group of vulgar people are doing something stupid together.

Priscilla Balliel, also known as the Bloody Bride, is a person with a pretty face but a very bad personality. She is arrogant and self-confident, and believes that the world revolves around herself.

This person initially made her fortune with the property of her late husband, and the title of Bloody Bride came from this. Her current property was built with the foundation of her late husband, and it is said that her husband died shortly after their marriage. There are even rumors among the people that she is still a virgin and that the unfortunate late husband never touched her. This rumor was confirmed to be true according to Roswaal's investigation.

The title of the Bloody Bride comes from her love of wearing red clothes, and it is also a metaphor for the fact that she killed her fiancé.

Next, the minister continued to explain the origin of the candidates, explaining that they could not just choose the candidates casually, but only those who were recognized by the Dragon Ball and possessed the qualifications of a dragon priestess were eligible to be selected. Then he asked Reinhard, who was standing in the knight formation, to bring the last candidate over, and Reinhard accepted the order.

Soon, everyone saw the door open again, and a blonde girl in a dress followed Reinhard angrily. When Reinhard half-knelt and introduced her identity to the ministers, she suddenly took advantage of the unpreparedness and kicked the sword master in the back. Surprisingly, the sword master did not dodge, but was kicked to the ground, looking helpless.

"You damn liar!"

The girl yelled at the sword master.

Not long ago, she stole something and the owner came to her house to threaten her. Later, her house was searched by the Knights Templar. She confessed everything in the hope of leniency, saying that she had only stolen a glowing badge but had returned it later. As for the identity of the client, she didn't know. At that time, it was this Reinhard who was listening to the trial. Later, it was this guy who said that he would help her and her grandfather avoid jail.

She was too stupid to believe this guy!
