King Absolun is very depressed, yes, he is very depressed. He is an extremely ambitious king who has the same geographical location as the Principality of Kamai and also faces three neighboring principalities.
His ambition could only be realized by targeting the weakest of them, the Principality of Kamai. Since Abel concentrated all the wizards in Harry Castle, and Abel's relationship with the Principality of Kamai was not harmonious, he seized the opportunity.
It would have been a very easy task to mobilize all the top combat forces of the Thunder Principality, the two Grand Knight Commanders and Malory's mid-level wizard, to support the Benson family in controlling the out-of-control Camai Principality.
But the appearance of Abel turned this seemingly easy thing into a nightmare. The two great knight captains were injured. It didn't matter, as long as they took some time to recover, but the fact that Malory's intermediate wizard was captured was a big deal. Trouble.
Without the intimidation of Malory's mid-level wizard, the Principality of Thunder will not be able to resist the harassment of neighboring principalities, and the Principality of Thunder will directly change from a powerful principality to a weak principality that is bullied.
Abel's drinking gave King Absolun an opportunity. Before coming, he had been thinking about how to treat Abel.
Being arrogant and strong is courting death. What happened before made it impossible for him to be neither humble nor arrogant. The only thing he can do now is to use enough benefits to get Abel to eliminate the barriers between the two principalities.
You must know that from now on, the Principality of Thunder has been getting along with the powerful Principality of Camai. Although it is restricted by the suzerain Kingdom of St. Ellis, strong invasion is impossible, but in the view of King Absolun, if Abel really If they want to make things difficult for the Thunder Principality, the Saint Ellis Kingdom may not interfere.
He looked at the young man walking towards him and sighed softly in his heart. The ambition of the Thunder Principality disappeared into nothingness in this sigh. He bowed down to greet Abel who came with a humble attitude.
"King Absolun, welcome!" Abel bowed and said.
He didn't have much hatred towards King Absolon. There had always been enmity between the Principality of Kamai and the Principality of Thunder. It would be illogical if the Principality of Thunder did not come to intervene when the Principality of Kamai was at its weakest.
The only thing he was angry about was the interference of the intermediate wizard Malory in the secular world and the siege of the two high knights on the high knight Hoover. If he had come a step later that day, the high knight Hoover would have suffered a big loss at the hands of the middle wizard Malory. Even life cannot be saved.
"Honorable King Abel, the Principality of Thunder congratulates you and brings the wish of eternal friendship between the two principalities!" King Absolun bowed and replied.
"King Absolun, I hope so too!" Abel said lightly, looking at King Absolun's respectful attitude.
"King Abel, I hope to exchange the noble agreement for the return of the mid-level wizard Malory!" King Absolun knew that Abel would not have much time to talk to him. When guests with sufficient status arrived, he would not have the chance to talk to Abel. We’ve already talked, so let’s get straight to the point.
The noble agreement he refers to refers to the method of dealing with noble prisoners of war, in which the captured nobles are exchanged for wealth of the same value as the noble prisoners of war.
The noble agreement is to protect the nobles from being killed in battles. Because they are driven by interests, they will be treated accordingly.
"King Absolun, you may be mistaken. Malory's intermediate wizard is not in my hands!" Abel said with a smile and shook his head.
"King Abel, I am willing to use the Inner Gold City in exchange for your words to forgive the middle-level wizard Malory!" King Absolon knew that only by telling his trump card at this time could he impress Abel, so he said directly.
He knew that Abel was not an ordinary person. The amount of gold coins was meaningless to Abel, and the only thing the Thunder Principality could offer was land.
Neijin City is a city about the same size as Harvest City. The land is connected to the Principality of Camai. Its land can be divided into at least a dozen heraldic knights. Using such a city to exchange Malory's mid-level wizard is definitely a big deal.
"King Absolun, the wizards from Liante City will come to the cocktail party later, I will propose it!" Abel smiled and nodded, then he turned back to Butler Burbage and said: "Grandpa Brooke Not here yet?”
"Your Majesty, Earl Brooke is not here yet!" Butler Burbage bowed and replied.
"When he comes, inform him about the handover of Neijin City with the Thunder Principality!" Abel said softly.
"King Absolun, from now on, the Principality of Kamai and the Principality of Thunder will be on good terms for generations!" Abel said after explaining to Burbage the steward, smiling and extending his hand.
"King Abel, the Principality of Thunder and the Principality of Kamai have been friends for generations!" King Absolun and Abel tapped their hands in the air and said.
After completing the peace ceremony, the expressions on the faces of the two kings became much more relaxed. Although King Absolun paid a huge price, as long as the status of the principality can be guaranteed, then the price is still worth it.
Then came the king of the Principality of Raqqa and the King of the Principality of Koror, and Abel met them in a polite manner.
At this time, the four major families also received the news. Abel did not appear at the reception as usual at the king's reception, which made the four major families feel very passive.
They rushed to the reception hall. After the local nobles appeared, the reception started to become lively.
All the nobles who attended the reception, almost without exception, brought with them the most beautiful noble lady of the same age as Abel in their family. Even the three neighboring princely royal families also had beautiful noble ladies present.
And young Abel became the focus of attention in the eyes of these aristocratic ladies. He was powerful, rich, and young. He spoke with grandeur, yet was humble and courteous.
However, as the king, Abel could not talk to these noble ladies unless he took the initiative to talk to them. And how could he like these women with thick foundation on their faces
Although he came to this world, he still retained some of the aesthetics of the earth, which was one of the reasons why he dated Luo Lan.
"The Duke of Chesterton, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of St. Peter, has arrived!" Bartoli's voice came.
Abel was slightly startled. The arrival of Duke Chesterton was beyond his expectation. You must know that in the Kingdom of St. Paul, the prime minister, Duke Chesterton, has greater authority than the king. Previously, he I thought that the Kingdom of St. Paul would only have one prince like the Kingdom of St. Alice.
"Duke Chesterton, welcome!" Abel had a good impression of Duke Chesterton, mainly because he had received a heavy gift from the duke in Leante City. He smiled and greeted him.
"Grandmaster Abel, the Principality of Camai will be more prosperous under your rule!" Duke Chesterton bowed and said.
"The personal friendship between the Kingdom of St. Paul and me has always been very good, and I hope this friendship can extend to the Principality of Camai!" Abel said with a smile.
His Royal Highness Alec, the eldest prince of the Kingdom of St. Alice, saw that the Duke of Chesterton was coming from the Kingdom of St. Paul, and his expression changed. The three empires should have sent their respective princes to this kind of reception.
This is an unspoken rule. Once a person with the Duke of Chesterton's status is involved in an incident abroad, it will cause turmoil in the Kingdom of St. Peter. Therefore, important ministers with the Duke of Chesterton's status rarely attend foreign receptions. of.
This is especially true for the emperors of the three major empires. If the emperor travels, the ceremonial guard corresponding to him will be very large, far beyond what a princely palace can accommodate.
It was already a very risky act for Duke Chesterton to arrive at Duke Camai's palace with a simple carriage like today.
However, His Highness Alec, the eldest prince, quickly thought of the teleportation circle in the palace, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. This teleportation circle ensured the safety of Duke Chesterton when he came to the Principality of Camai, because he came here. There is no need to leave the palace at all, and in Abel's palace, there are probably very few people in the Holy Continent who dare to take action here.
"His Majesty Emperor Aldous of the Kingdom of St. Alvos has arrived!" Following Bartoli's announcement again, everyone in the hall was shocked.
Although the arrival of Duke Chesterton of the St. Peter Kingdom surprised everyone present, his identity was not the emperor after all. Although power was important among the nobility, his identity was more important.
His Majesty Emperor Aldous of the Kingdom of St. Alvos is different. He can truly be called His Majesty the Emperor with the prefix "Great".
