"Meow~"
The cat squatting on the coffee table let out a piercing scream. It came back with the ice and snow palace and had been waiting for Jenkins for a long time.
"No accidents, right? I was in Loen last night, and I also saw an anomaly in the sky."
The short lady asked concerned.
"I think that palace, probably the whole material world can see."
Jenkins took Alexia's hand to sit on the sofa, and when he saw the cat standing beside the palace angrily, he pulled it into his lap.
"So it's over?"
"It's over, this matter is barely over. To be honest, I didn't expect it to end up like this."
He let out a long breath, and then briefly told what he had seen and heard along the way. The conversation with the ice priest was cut short, and the final apotheosis process was narrated in the third person, but he believed that Alexia could understand it all.
"That's good, St. Williams, you've saved the world again."
She made fun of Jenkins by calling it that.
"Yeah, I saved the world again... I hope to come later next time. I really just wanted to vacation in Loen this time, but it turned out like this. I don't even know when I can return to Nolan." .”
The end of the disaster is certainly a good thing, but it is not a good thing for the church that has entered a state of emergency. Everything needs to be re-arranged. Although it will not be a mess, it will definitely take some time before Jenkins returns to Nolan.
"How is the current situation on Ruen's side?"
"The ruins of the two streets around the House Square are still being cleared, and all the supporters and followers of Lark Stuart are being liquidated. The two steam cannons have also been found, right in front of the main entrance of the House. The third floor of the 'Harms Gentlemen's Club' two streets away. It's funny to say that the club was originally the private property of Stipe Stuart, and it was taken by Lark Stuart after he disappeared. "
Stipe was the prince who "disappeared" during the winter hunt last year. He is still alive, but Jenkins has not heard from Dolores for a long time.
"What about the body of Salsi II?"
"It's not too bad, but it also caused a serious damage to his health. Although the gun in the abdomen has no effect on the things in his head that can kill him, I think that His Majesty the King, after this double blow of spirit and body , It was originally estimated that he could live until the end of the year, but now it seems that this is quite an optimistic view."
Jenkins saw Salsi II in person, only once in the underground chamber. But with just one glance, he was sure that the problem with Dolores' father's head was not caused by external force, it was really a natural disease like a brain tumor.
That is to say, since the disease is not caused by external force, naturally it cannot be solved by solving the external force. It is almost certain that Sarcy II will die within this year. In the remaining 8 months of this year, something "more exciting" may happen in Ruen.
"The current situation is very delicate. As you know, Dolores' eldest brother Sallot Stuart lost an arm, and there is no precedent in the kingdom for a disabled person to be king; in Sallot Stuart Apart from Tuart, the most favorable competitor was the second prince, Lak Stuart, but he is also dead now; so Salot, the biggest opponent of the disabled competition, has become the eldest princess.
But like I said before, the Kingdom of Hampavo is not the Kingdom of Fidiktli. This country has only had one queen ruling the country. No matter whether it is the nobles or the people at the bottom, they do not want their new king to be a woman. "
Alexia concluded that the light from the overhead crystal chandelier shone on her face, making her look even more beautiful.
"So now Dolores' opponents don't actually have outstanding advantages?"
Jenkins said while petting the cat.
"Yes, at least on the surface. Why, do you want to make up your mind to support Dolores as king?"
While asking, he reached out to pick up an orange from the coffee table.
"If she is willing to become a king, I am also willing to support her. This is a difficult road. To become a king means taking on huge responsibilities. I hoped that Dolores could spend her life without any burden...Of course, I also I don’t have the position to decide other people’s lives on my own.”
"Only you will see taking over the crown as a burden."
Alexia laughed, holding the orange in her right hand, and lightly tapped the orange peel with her left hand, as if an invisible whirlwind turned the orange peel into dust inch by inch. In less than ten seconds, the air was filled with the fragrance of oranges, and the flesh without the skin appeared in her hands.
"Meow~"
Chocolate's eyes lit up, and he was deeply attracted by this "noble" peeling method.
"You didn't seem very enthusiastic about Dolores competing for the throne. What changed your mind?"
Alexia asked again.
"The world needs stability, especially at this time, when the human regime needs stability even more. This is of great significance to the material world. I have no ability to predict what the next disaster will be, so I can only actively prevent it."
"I will support you."
She said softly, and handed all the oranges in her hand to the chocolate. The cat gave her a suspicious look, then stretched out its paws and picked a round fruit onto Jenkins' lap.
Originally, he wanted to warn the cat not to let the juice stain his pants, but before he could speak, his hands were suddenly grabbed by Alexia who was approaching.
The short lady was now so close to Jenkins that Jenkins could even see the candlelight of the crystal chandelier above their heads through her beautiful crystal clear eyes.
"I want to talk to you about another thing, Jenkins. Where were you the night before coming to Loen?"
"I… "
I didn't understand this question at first, but after thinking about it for a while, I immediately thought of all his actions that night. Even if there is no mirror, he can still know that his face is blushing at this moment, and his originally agile thinking is now completely stagnant, unable to help him. He organizes his words to answer this question in a short time.
"I knew this day would come..."
In fact, Alexia's information came from the William on the train, but she would never tell Jenkins. If the last time Jenkins explained it was a dream, then this time, he was really with a certain woman... Even if she was already prepared, she couldn't easily accept it all.
"Jenkins, let me guess who got this lucky. Hathaway Hessa?"
"I... she... that day..."
Jenkins hesitated, almost writing what he thought on his face.
