01.
As Mülheim was out of danger and entered the stage of counter-offensive, the civil chaos in the country quickly subsided.
The people of Mülheim are used to hearing about fighting on the border—this is mainly due to too much friction between Mülheim and the Dijon tribe, so this is not uncommon, and many people do not realize the seriousness of the problem. They also heard that a big family rebelled and almost threatened their Ice Emperor, which is unforgivable. But it has been subdued, and the Ice Emperor is out of danger, so there is no need to worry, and then the chaos subsided, and the entertainment industry, which had been slightly stagnant before, quickly flourished again.
People with discerning eyes know that this war is completely different from the previous ones. After all, it was the White White family who rebelled. This is a striking signal to anyone who understands politics. Many people stopped and waited to see how Ice Empress Claude would deal with the next thing, and what would happen to the White family.
Will the empire reveal some truth? What lies behind the present peace? How will the empire handle its relationship with the Dijon tribe
With these questions in mind, they waited quietly.
However, although there are many discerning people, their proportion in the whole group is relatively small. Therefore, most people have returned to their previous living conditions,
Hill's return (?) from the war and sex directly marks one thing, and that is the full start of this wave of public opinion offensive.
Under the command of Hill, the dark elves became front-line reporters, and sent a large number of front-line texts, pictures, and videos to Winter City every day. Hill handed over the post-editing to the lich Alighieri, and he can now effectively Help Hill share the work in this area. In order to make the result more in line with human aesthetics, Hill specially matched him with a paladin as a partner. With the joint efforts of the two, the passionate narration, careful cutting, and magnificent shots... All these make the "Strike the Front Line" every night "The ratings of the program are astonishingly high.
The whole nation is watching this war, which is unprecedented.
After this time, the Ice Emperor Claude and the ministers of Mullheim once again realized the horror of this propaganda strategy.
War covers not only the magical mobile phone programs every night, but also Weibo, magazines... These affect everyone's heart.
After seeing his sister Olivia, Jefferson Jackson led the army to the front. The current battle on the front is going well, which is a good opportunity to gain military exploits and sharpen himself. Therefore, there are also things related to the Yulan army in the report, which has caused many people in the Yulan Empire to pay attention to this war.
Two consecutive issues of "Devil Magazine" were themed on this war. The cover of the first magazine was biased towards blood. The orderly and solemn Mülheim army and the Yulan army rushed to the enemy together. There was a kind of tense strength, which made people shocked and inexplicable.
The cover of the second magazine has the meaning of anti-war and advocacy of peace. After the war, the land was devastated and the earth was broken. The soldiers silently collected the corpses of their companions. They all hung their heads. They looked as embarrassed as the corpses lying on the ground. There are vultures hovering above the battlefield, adding a bit of desolation. But in fact, those vultures are ghost-faced bird cosplay...
The transition flowed very well, because not long after the second issue of the magazine appeared, the Dijon tribe made a plea for peace talks.
Ice Emperor Claude proposed a three-party meeting as promised, with the Dark Holy See and Mülheim as the victors.
It's really a turn of events. Hill thought of the multi-party meeting not long after the time travel.
So, what will the Church of Light do
At this point, Hill was terribly calm. He persuaded Ice Emperor Claude to calm down and drag the Dijon people. The longer the delay, the more disturbed the Dijon tribe would be. chaos.
Not long after, the grand maester returned to Winter City screaming, and he had a great time fighting this battle. During this period of time, he was in a very good mood, and the number of roars in the hall decreased, but his voice was louder, more violent and more imposing than before. Ice Empress didn't know whether she should be happy or in pain...
Not long after the war, Hill went to see Old White in the dungeon. Ice Empress Claude left him to Hill, and Hill was very pleased about it. The investment in emotional interests was not in vain.
The Ice Emperor didn't give old White good treatment, nor did he deliberately give him bad treatment, but just put him in a cell according to the usual practice. This makes people feel more frightened and even more incomprehensible of his thoughts.
The meeting was held at the home of Grand Master Lennon, and it was not formal, so it also meant that there was no need to follow etiquette and system, and you could do whatever you wanted.
The door of the room is facing east, the windows are facing the sun, and the lighting is very good, so good that after ten o'clock every morning, the curtains have to be partly drawn - because the sun is too strong. But in winter, this is just right, the Grand Master is an old man after all, so he moved here a few years ago. The bed in the room had a ceiling, and dark purple curtains hung down from the ceiling, layered on the mattress, like a deep dream. Looking up, you can see the golden chain of the chandelier, which is a grotesque shape made of crystals produced by the Dijon tribe. It does not match the decoration of the room, but it has a sense of its own. The fireplace is made of marble, and next to it are carved paintings that are full of the atmosphere of the Fussen Empire. Different from the traditional art in Mülheim, the paintings of the painters of the Fussen Empire located in the cultural center of the mainland always have some fresh breath.
From this, we can also see the character of the Grand Scholar. Although he is old, although he always seems to be long-winded and has too many scruples, his heart is actually very open, and he can actively contact and accept all kinds of new things. . The pillars of the country and the unparalleled scholars of the country. Hill commented on the Grand Maester.
When Old White was brought in, Hill was sitting at the desk, looking like the owner of the room, and Grand Scholar Lennon was drinking tea beside him, as if he was not going to intervene.
"Sit down." Hill was looking down at the latest magazine sample without looking up.
Old White looked at him vigilantly, without moving.
"I mean sit down, please." Hill looked up at him, his red pupils were like ice formed from blood in the cold night, just such a gloomy look, old White's heart was conveyed by a rumor of fear , and then the cold torrent flooded his chest, and he felt a living fear. Since the death of his son, he thought he had no normal emotions, but now that Greenwald saw him like this, could he still have human fear... He felt it was difficult to breathe, and at the same time he staggered a little to the desk and sat down. On the seat prepared for him in advance over there.
Old White has a lot of mental activities here, but Hill just glanced at him indifferently, and he complained: "I said, you people, why do you always toast instead of fine wine?"
"Because the two kinds of wine you gave are not good to drink." University scholar Lan Nong said, the university scholar does not like to drink, so this is quite a pun.
Hill narrowed his eyes and smiled, with a bit of complacency: "That's true." Then he raised his lips leisurely, mockingly: "But at least it can have a little more dignity on the surface."
"Actually, isn't it still lacking in dignity?" the Grand Maester asked back.
"Which side are you on, Grand Maester." Hill also glanced at him.
"Sorry, I was definitely not on Old White's side, but after seeing you, I couldn't help jumping to your opposite side." Grand Maester Lennon said, and he didn't sound like he wanted to repent.
"Okay." Hill said, and then he talked about the topic just now, and made a racial attack on the grand maester: "In fact, there is no dignity, and it is enough to have dignity on the surface. Aren't you humans all so sanctimonious?" what?"
The grand maester felt shot, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he stammered, "...you, don't be racist."
Hill laughed three times, feeling refreshed seeing the grand maester unable to refute. Then he turned to Old White: "I was so happy bickering with you that I forgot our guest..."
"It's not a guest, it's a prisoner." The grand maester corrected.
After hearing this, the corners of Old White's eyes couldn't help twitching. Of course he knew that Grand Maesters were always rude.
"I think it would be more ironic to say 'guests'." Hill clapped his hands, and asked the servants to bring all kinds of gourmet pastries, and then he actually began to enjoy these things in front of Old White.
"You've gone too far in taunting," said the Grand Maester.
"I hope I can go deeper in your heart." Hill stared at the grand maester and said affectionately.
The corner of the Grand Maester's mouth twitched: "Enough."
"Okay, it's enough for you to say enough. I'll listen to you today. After all, I'm at your house. Then I won't be too wordy." Hill turned his head to look at the old White over there: "White, you know Why did Claude spare your life?"
White was about to answer when Hill said, "Oh, I forgot to remind you, I don't accept answers other than 'know'."
Old White couldn't help frowning: "I know."
"Actually, even if you don't say it, I know that the church must be instigating it. Hey, because of your own mistake, look at how many people have died here." Hill sighed hypocritically: "But in fact, as a A demon race, I feel that if all human beings are like you, we will no longer have to worry about human beings treating us, because they will either humiliate themselves or destroy themselves."
Old White slowly clenched his fists.
Hill looked at his reaction with a smile, and continued to say casually: "Oh, there is still anger, and there is still anger. I said you, Lord White, do you think you have the right to be angry? Your behavior killed you Your son, who was so good, so young, had great promise. Your actions have killed many soldiers who were loyal to the White family. Your actions have tarnished the glory of the White family, as the founding family of Muelheim One, what did you say you did? Moreover, your behavior gave me, the Demon Race, a reason to laugh at humans... "
Old White stood up instantly, he really wanted to rush up and punch Hill's head.
This is utter humiliation.
Not to mention that Hill's words still carry the magic power of inducing people.
Even the beard of the Grand Maester next to him almost blew up, not to mention the old White who faced the magic power directly.
However, the aura immediately exuded by Hill forced Old White to press down on the chair: "I originally wanted to use this trick to try to press Monroe, but I didn't expect to press you first. It's boring." After he finished speaking, he stood up Get up, and then Old White clearly saw that the messy sneer on his face disappeared, and what remained was an absolute indifference belonging to the villain, which felt like those statues of ancient gods on the wasteland, swept by the wind of a thousand years They, they just look down on this world indifferently, indifferent and great.
At this time, Hill said to him with such a face close to a terrifying god: "Because you are still useful, I think you have a chance to make up for it."
Looking at Hill like this, Grand Bachelor Lennon was once again horrified in his heart. Every time, every time Hill can bring him a new sense of shock.
"The...opportunity to make up..." Old White took a blank step back.
"Well, we can announce to the public that you have been completely bewitched and manipulated by the church, at least you can keep the glory of the White family." Hill said.
Intimidation. In fact, in the final analysis, that is the case. However, the method Hill used was very ingenious. He intentionally provoked the other party, aroused strong emotional fluctuations in the other party, and then put on that face, thus very cleverly manipulating the other party.
"What you have to do is quite simple, just accuse the church of crimes against the projection stone." Hill said, he smiled slightly when he said this, changed the mask of the devil, and became like Greenwald The appearance of the situation, the voice is gentle and bewitching.
Old White's brain was already confused at the moment, so he nodded subconsciously.
Then Hill picked up a small piece of cake and threw it into his mouth, chewed and swallowed, "I suggest you do this quickly, honorable Lord White, or I will kill you." He whistled like a ruffian, then tore off the tablecloth, wiped his fingers clean and threw them on the table before leaving the room. Then it's time for Grand Scholar Lennon, he will appease Old White, and I believe Old White will cooperate obediently.

Next, "Devil Magazine" and Magic Mobile made some post-war talk shows. Hill used all the experience he had accumulated before to almost turn the war into a large-scale propaganda film, and gained countless benefits from it. Bingdi gasped and said, "Your combination of punches makes me feel that this war is under your control."
"Where there is," Hill said modestly, "I'm just adapting."
Not long after, Ice Emperor Claude held a large-scale ceremony to commemorate the dead and pay homage to the heroes, and then he became the first human king to appear on the cover of the Demon World magazine, which is also the theme of this issue of "Magic World Magazine".
While continuously squeezing the value of the war, Hill began to tinker with the lower part of the animation.
Hill originally planned to broadcast "Girls' Last Journey" after "Violet Evergarden" was finished, but now that the show is in full swing and everyone is still excited, it seems that it is not appropriate to be extremely anti-war here. So Hill decided to postpone "Girls' Last Tour" until later, then he thought about it and started making a revised "Fate/zero". Hill has already had the idea of the Fate series, and the specific tasks have already been arranged.
The main plot of "Fate/zero" is very simple: the Holy Grail, which can fulfill all wishes, is born, giving capable magicians the qualifications to participate in the Holy Grail War, and then they can summon ancient heroes to participate in the war as their servants, and finally survive The winner will obtain the Holy Grail and realize his wish. — at least on the surface.
This setting is full of charm, fighting side by side with ancient heroes, the collision of ideas, the dialogue of the king, the content of the holy grail war in just a dozen days, intertwined fate, killing and cruelty... these are quite eye-catching s things.
"Fate/zero" is the work of Urobuchi Gen. In "Magic Girl Madoka", people from other worlds have already experienced this devil. I believe that in FZ, the audience will further feel the horror of Lao Xu. In addition, "Fate/zero" has a grand scene, and of course there are quite a lot of novelty hunting scenes. It is full of duels of strength and resourcefulness. feast. At the same time, this is a huge and sad story. Almost everyone in it ends in tragedy. There is no confrontation between good and evil, but a conflict of different ideas and values. By the way, Hill likes the king very much. The part of the feast.
In the different world version of Fate, the heroic spirits have to be replaced with historical figures that already exist in the different world. This is not a small project. Fortunately, Hill has his men to check the information, so after the production started, the information was in place and everything went smoothly.
The background of the main characters has undergone large-scale adjustments, but the basic personalities of the characters remain unchanged.
For example, Artoria Pendragon, who is also the sex-transformed King Arthur, has been changed to the original Yulan Emperor here, um... that is, the ancestor of Henry Louis, oh, of course it is also a sex-transformed version.
When Hill announced the setting to the public, there was a commotion in the Louis royal family. Emperor Yulan felt that this was an insult to the Louis family. Why did the ancestor become a woman inexplicably, but after FZ aired, he immediately felt good The fragrance is so fragrant, and my ancestors are really handsome.
Archer Gilgamesh is an ancient king from the mythology of the Magnolia Continent. In the setting, he has the triple blood of the God of Darkness, the God of Light, and human beings.
Then Kotomine Kirei became an ascetic monk of the Illuminati Church, which made many people look handsome. After the "Fate/zero" anime was broadcast, many people became interested in ascetic monks, and even became obsessed with them, voluntarily dedicating themselves (… ), which makes the Church eat a raw egg. "This, this is a blasphemy against ascetic monks! It's too abominable! Demon bastard!" A bishop said angrily. And Teresa went to the ascetic monks to tell the news, and the ascetic monks who had secretly watched the anime movie were thoughtful...
The Conqueror King Rider is set as a former emperor of the Dijon tribe, which fits well with the original character design.
The sadistic and brutal Caster was set by Hill as a necromancer in the history of the Dark Holy See. Hill changed Qingxiu's appearance out of selfishness. The original book described Qingxiu's manners as elegant, "with a smooth and youthful face. , the big eyes are moving flexibly, and his appearance is still like Munch's painting... Even so, the eyes are not so big, and it is not like "The Scream" directly... Hill read the original book first. Then I watched the animation, so when I saw the Caster character in the animation, I sprayed it directly.
Everything fell into place, the animation started, and life settled down for a while.
Not long after, Mülheim and the Dijon tribe finally set a meeting date, a few days before the New Year. Hill ended his temporary regular life and came to Winter City again. Hill did not plan to go to the peace talks in person, and Monroe represented the Dark Vatican. It's the same, anyway, he and Monroe are one.
On the eve of the meeting, Hill held a celebration party at the Demon World Amusement Park.
When Ice Empress Claude came with his wife Olivia, he smiled and asked, "Why are you holding a celebration banquet now? It's usually held after the peace talks."
"I'm afraid that I will go too far during the negotiation and you won't want to see me in the future," Hill said solemnly, "So hold it in advance."
Ice Empress Claude smiled, and he straightened his face with a smile: "You really hurt my heart, are you really not afraid that I will turn my face?"
"I used to be so good to you just to make you forgive me quickly when I hurt your heart." Hill said.
Ice Empress Claude laughed: "You, you."
"Me, me," Hill said.
After the two had finished their bickering, Hill kissed Olivia next to her and said, "Nice to meet you, Your Lady Queen."
Olivia accepted the gift, and raised her skirt to return the gift: "Nice to meet you, Lord Demon King."
"Haha, I'm really not used to it." Hill said.
"So in the future, such etiquette will be avoided, we are still friends." Olivia said.
"That's exactly what I mean." Hill smiled and presented a gift, which was a beautiful hat made by the dark elves.
"Why didn't you give me a gift?" Bingdi asked.
"Then I'll change the hat for Olivia to a green one so you both get my gift," Hill said.
The corner of Ice Empress Claude's mouth twitched: "You are enough."
Hill laughed: "Hahaha just kidding, I have already given you a gift, I think you should be very satisfied."
Ice Empress Claude froze for a moment, then smiled: "Yes, very satisfied."
In fact, the most important thing in a traditional banquet is to socialize, but since the delicacies of the devil world were introduced to the human world, the most important thing in a banquet now is to eat...
Since it is a celebration banquet, it is naturally a feast for the big fish and meat.
To start, the charcoal crispy pork belly. This pork belly comes from the white-spotted wild boar in the devil world. First cut the pork belly into long strips, marinate it with seasoning for more than 2 hours, and then grill it slowly with charcoal for several hours. Absorb, when eating, the delicious gravy comes out together, the fat and lean meat are mixed together, the mouth is fragrant, and the taste is amazing. After such a long cooking process, the pork belly is fragrant and crispy, and it is delicious. When it is served, the skin is slightly crispy and the color is golden red. The barbecue ingredients sprinkled on it are mixed with the aroma of oil, and the aroma is tangy.
In addition, there are roasted beef ribs, roasted pig's trotters, roasted chicken feet, roasted leeks, roasted oysters... Olivia was a bit disgusted with the pig's trotters at first, but it looked delicious, so She gave it a try, and in this way, the door to a new world was opened. The skin is still crispy, but the inside is soft and charred, and the taste is very special, soft and delicious, tender and springy, but not particularly greasy. The trotter itself is first marinated and then roasted, and then sprinkled with cumin-based barbecue ingredients, which is naturally very tasty.
Then there is the famous Kung Pao Chicken, which is a traditional dish of Chinese and foreign civilizations. Its staple food is fresh chicken, which is bright red in color, rich in aroma, smooth and tender in texture, and has a very good taste. It feels slightly numb in the mouth, and it tastes very refreshing when it is paired with crispy peanuts.
Apart from all kinds of wine, the main drink this time is the newly made fruity coconut milk from the Demon Realm. The coconuts come from the beach of the endless sea of the devil world, and most of the other fruits come from the devil world. They were shipped here shortly after they were made, so the taste is fresh, and the taste is even better after being chilled. Take a sip and put it in your mouth, you can only feel that it exudes a strong coconut milk fragrance and also has a very fresh natural fragrance of fruit. In addition to quenching thirst, it also effectively relieves the greasyness of big fish and meat.
In addition, of course there are all kinds of fruit tea. Among these fruit teas, Olivia likes strawberry and raspberry fruit tea very much. The combination of sweet and sour strawberry and refreshing tea aroma makes Olivia One drink after another.
In addition, a lot of fresh fruits from the Devil Realm were also served at the banquet. The Devil Realm version of Dongxue Sweet Peach has come out, ripe and plump, attractive in color, rich in aroma, taking a bite, the sweet juice and pulp will stimulate the taste buds, making people feel happy. Can't help but feast on it.
All of these are attracting this person to let go of his belly and eat hard...
After drinking for three rounds, Bingdi said with emotion: "Actually, with this food alone, we can't do without the demons at all."
"You will always learn something like food, and it's just a matter of appetite." Hill didn't care, he continued: "The real permanent impact is this." He pointed to his head, Said.
"I found out this time too." Ice Empress said seriously.
"So, how does it feel?" Hill asked.
"If this happens, I'll be considered an emperor through the ages." Bingdi laughed and said, maybe because of drinking, he looked more heroic than before.
Hill also laughed, "If this happens, then I will be the teacher of all ages."
The two of them blew a wave of themselves, and suddenly felt refreshed.
Hill raised his glass: "Cheers to the future."
"Cheers." said the Ice Empress.
The wine glasses collided, and the liquor flew in the misty light and shadow.
—
