If you don't experience war up close, you can't understand the cruelty of war.
Modern wars may still pay attention to military discipline and humanitarianism, at least on the surface, but in ancient times, whether in the East or the West, war was a barbaric carnival for the victors, and soldiers could slaughter the enemy's enemies at will. The people are burning, killing, looting, and doing whatever they want. If a general wants to stop this kind of thing, he may lose his military morale.
Of course, a professional soldier like Cassirer knew this very well, so when the Nilfgaardian Empire's army broke through the Cintra Castle, he had already taken the lead and led an elite team to blockade the king, queen, and king of Cintra. Where the princesses live, ordinary soldiers are prohibited from entering.
He doesn't care about other places and can let the soldiers do whatever they want, but in order to properly fulfill the emperor's secret order, he must do this. Otherwise, what if those red-eyed soldiers kill all the princesses
As for Queen Calanthe of Cintra, Cassirer hoped that she would be more conscious and that it would be best to commit suicide. Otherwise, even if he wanted to kill a noble from an enemy country, he would still be a bit weak. Even if It was him who killed him, and he would also declare to the outside world that it was him who died for his country.
Mainly these days, marriages between royal families of various countries are also very frequent, and they are basically related to each other. Therefore, even if there is a war between countries, it is an established rule that no nobles are allowed to be slaughtered at will. Otherwise, the reputation will be ruined all of a sudden and gain. Titled "Parricide Beast".
It's not that you can't kill nobles, but you can't kill them for no reason. There must be a high-sounding reason.
Cassirer methodically searched for the two little princesses with his men. At the same time, he did not forget to visit the room where the members of the Sintra royal family lived, and asked his men to search for some luxury goods for the emperor. In the process, he was greedy for details. Twenty percent is also an unspoken rule.
However, what made him feel a little speechless was that Queen Calanthe of Cintra, who worked hard to govern, did not like to collect luxury goods and kept everything simple. Maybe in her heart, the kingdom came first.
Princess Olivia, on the other hand, likes luxury. She likes to convene the best tailors in the kingdom to customize all kinds of beautiful clothes for her according to her designs. Her title of "Pearl of the North" is also due to her wearing These are the processes that tailors consider to be whimsical but unexpectedly beautiful.
Princess Olivia will also communicate with artists from all over the world. Many famous painters have been lucky enough to paint her appearance, which became famous paintings. When these paintings finally appeared on the market, Her Royal Highness Princess Olivia Of course, its reputation is getting louder and louder.
Judging from the fact that she has loved beauty and luxury since she was a child, it is obvious that Calanthe doesn't like Olivia for this reason.
However, this also became Olivia's best disguise. No one knew that this princess could hide so deeply.
When Cassirer came to Siliya and Olivia's room, he was immediately stunned by the unique style of the room. If the king and queen's room looked too shabby and stingy before, it was completely different from the room. If they were not living in the place where the great emperor of the Nilfgaard Empire lived, then the princesses' room would look unique and artistic.
It is rumored that the "Pearl of the North" Princess Olivia is extremely talented in art. Painting seems to be the most ordinary of her many talents. What is really amazing about her is her musical talent. Many nobles who heard her play described the wonderful process as magical after returning home...
People who have never heard of it think that those nobles must have been paid, or they fell in love with Princess Olivia because of her beauty. However, after hearing it in person, those doubts disappeared.
It's a pity that those who are qualified to listen to Princess Olivia's performance must be the top dignitaries in the northern countries. Forget about those small nobles.
So, there are so many beautiful girls in the world, why can Olivia be called the "Pearl of the North"? Of course, first of all, she is a princess, secondly, she is talented, and lastly and most importantly, she Wherever they are, they are eye-catching, with a strong sense of presence, and their beauty is like a painting.
In this world, she seems to be a natural protagonist.
Cahill soon discovered the two portraits that Olivia had painted for Hiliya in the room. In one of them, Hiliya seemed very angry because she was wearing that silly princess dress. skirt; there is also a painting of Siriya, but it is very beautiful. This painting was obviously painted on a boat, with the boundless sea in the background. Siriya in the painting even has love in her eyes, maybe because of her Is it because Olivia put on the other person’s clothes with her own hands? Wearing a gorgeous dress wrapped in her sister's aura, and then acting as a model for her sister's paintings, it really filled her heart with love...
When he saw these two paintings, he couldn't help but feel happy, and hurriedly asked his subordinates to keep them. He felt that given the importance the emperor paid to the two princesses, these two works of Princess Olivia, the paintings in them were of Siliya Princess, that will definitely please the Emperor.
In addition, he also collected things that he considered important, such as Princess Olivia's musical instruments. Maybe he could also listen to the legendary fairy music in the future
In fact, Cassirer still felt that although the princesses' rooms were artistic, they were still too shabby. This small kingdom was just a small kingdom, too poor, and far inferior to the wealth of their Nilfgaardian empire.
During the search, Cassirer gradually became anxious. Could it be that the Queen of Cintra and the two princesses had escaped
If this is the case, that is definitely the worst outcome. He is not worried about where the other party can run. What he is most worried about is being accidentally killed by soldiers who have no eyesight, and that's the end of it.
At this time, Cassirer suddenly received an urgent report from his subordinates. Her Royal Highness Princess Olivia, the "Pearl of the North", fainted on the edge of the tower for some reason and was about to fall off the tower and die.
When Cassirer heard the news, he was almost scared out of his wits. Princess Olivia was the one the Emperor wanted to take back by name, and she might become a concubine or even a queen...
In Cassirer's mind, Princess Siliya was just a supplement. The one the emperor was really interested in should be Olivia, the "Pearl of the North."
When he arrived at the tower, he found that none of his elite knights dared to touch Olivia who was unconscious there, waiting for him to give orders.
