This is the most correct and most suitable path for you.
So she was always competing with Angelina, and she didn't care that she had no friends or comrades in the imperial capital.
Reason allows her to cooperate with colleagues in the military and political sequence, but in her heart, she never thought of making friends with like-minded people, and never thought of relying on anyone.
The Queen of Eternal Night is the sun in her eyes, chasing after her feverishly, but not relying on it.
She just wanted to be the first courtier of His Majesty to prove her worth.
This was Margaret's short life.
It seems splendid and wonderful, from the orphan to the prime minister, the magnificent, smooth journey is an achievement that many people envy...
But the loneliness and struggle along the way were not something that ordinary people could bear. Margaret's deep-rooted sense of competition made her very tired.
Always running, for fear of falling behind others.
Because worthless little devils will be abandoned, and then wither and die...
But in the cabinet, Angelina always pressed her head.
Before she knew it, surpassing Angelina was Margaret's greatest obsession, the chaotic desire that sometimes overwhelmed her reason.
Commonly known as the top, resulting in a significant decline in judgment.
This seems to be the sequelae brought by the chaotic blood of the devil, the supernatural power is not as good as the number of days, and the intelligence is inferior to hormones.
The more anxious she was, the more she was suppressed by Angelina.
Later, there was Roger's silent rise, and he also became a very trusted servant of the Queen of Evernight, and even had the potential to surpass himself faintly.
This made Margaret even more miserable!
In the 1v1 battle between the real women on the road, she was already forced to shrink under the tower and grow vulgarly.
As a result, the blue-haired Virgin also shook people wildly, and Ueno directly fit in, crazy over her tower.
In this situation, who is not angry, who is not desperate, who is not collapsed
Although Angelina never thought of targeting Margaret, she just focused on doing her own thing.
However, the small ceiling fan always aims to surpass the people around it, and there is a suffocation in my heart.
Because of this qi, she is willing to put down her figure and take the initiative to seek Dior as an ally.
If the opponent didn't play cards according to the routine, she could only call the jungler.
This is the reason why Margaret keeps sending breakfast to Dior.
However, the breakfast was delivered for almost a week, and the conversation was good, but she never said the request of "alliance".
At first, she felt that the time was immature, and the friendship between the two was not in place. These two days, she herself did not understand the concerns and hesitations.
After all, Dio treated her very well and Angelina was not bad either.
He seems to be maintaining a neutral and disinterested attitude.
For a civilian who has recently entered the cabinet, this attitude is actually quite normal. There is no need to get involved in such disputes. With a civilian background, it is impossible to withstand the conflict between the two factions.
It is precisely because of this realization that Margaret hesitated even more, for fear that she would be mercilessly rejected if she wanted to form an alliance with Dior.
As long as I don't open my mouth, just eat, eat, and chat, I'll never be ashamed!
But holding on like this is not always the way to go.
Just giving up like this, Margaret is not reconciled.
The pressure on her from the Charles siblings is increasing, and there has been news recently that the Queen of Eternal Night is preparing to promote Roger to the duke.
Although the current duke no longer has a vast land, it is also a kind of honor and recognition, representing the empress's award...
I haven't become a duke yet. This Charles family is going to have a double duke
Margaret was angry and worried.
She was afraid that Angelina would take off directly and then crazily suppress her, so she felt that she needed an ally who could advance and retreat together and help each other. Not to mention overthrowing Angelina, at least she could protect herself.
In this way, I am ready to speak every day, but I come to Dior to have dinner together every day, chatting all over the world, and finally did not mention the core topic.
This situation got a little awkward.
Also because of being "embarrassed", Margaret's confidence that she could easily win over Dior by her charm at first dissipated little by little.
Hesitation will defeat.
Then the more afraid of defeat, the more hesitant you will be.
The only thing Margaret can confirm at this moment is that having breakfast and chatting at Dior's side will put her in a good mood.
Lord Dior knows a lot, speaks interestingly, and looks very pleasing to the eye.
As long as you find a topic of interest to both parties, the atmosphere is still very warm, like a very familiar friend...
and many more.
At this time, Margaret felt helpless, she had no friends.
In her memory, she eats alone, reads books alone, gets sick alone, and faces every difficult choice alone...
Only here at Dior, a simple breakfast and casual discussions made her feel extra comfortable.
Most of the time she asked Dior for advice and always got a good answer.
Occasionally, she also talks about the exclusive information she has, or shares some of her little emotions. Dior is not disgusted or impatient.
Of course, there is no special relief and enlightenment, but some words will feel a lot easier if you just say them.
Such a feeling was something Margaret had never experienced since she was a child.
It was only five breakfasts in five days, but for Margaret, it was already a fragment worth imprinting in her mind over and over again.
The angle where the sun shines on the dining table, the fresh smell in the room, the simple but comfortable furnishings, and the casual but graceful movements of Mr. Dior on the opposite side, their topics are all over the world...
She seems to like the feeling of eating together like this.
She seems to hope that this state can be maintained forever.
The little half-blood demon raised his head, and Dio could be faintly seen from the window, reading some documents.
It would be great if time could stop at this moment forever.
She finally realized that she never hesitated to form an alliance, because she was afraid that after being rejected, she would not even have the chance to have a simple meal together.
In that case, she will lose the chance to grow up to be the first and possibly have a "friend".
"Maybe, this is life..."
Margaret looked back with a complicated expression.
Anyway, I have been alone for so long, I have long been used to it, even if I don’t have friends, it will not be uncomfortable.
That's right, Brave Mary can solve all the puzzles alone!
So when I come back for dinner tomorrow, I have to talk to Dior about forming an alliance, the big deal is to be rejected, and then be an ordinary colleague...
Well, definitely tomorrow, definitely next time!

Outside the city of mystery, the Hall of Stars.
This is not only the altar of the oath of glory, but also the residence of the Night Guard.
In addition, the Night Guard also undertakes the task of defending the Hall of Stars to prevent it from being destroyed, so that people with intentions can influence the nobles of the empire.
After more than a month, the Night Guard has continuously recruited civilian powerhouses and military elites, and now it has expanded to a scale of 5,000 people, with a total of four brigades.
The number of strong men has decreased, but the newly recruited soldiers are all professionals, and the ratio of magicians has exceeded the level of the empire's front-line troops by more than five percentage points.
Even the Night Guard stopped a heavy cavalry force of 200 people, all knights above the intermediate level.
Two hundred may not sound like much, but it is an extremely expensive and luxurious force with a terrifying frontal impact.
In the era of cold weapons, heavy cavalry is the role played by later generations of tanks, which can cause devastating blows to infantry in field battles.
Roger handed over the command of this heavy cavalry to little Joey, believing in her ability to train it well and make good use of it.
Also quite helpful is the long-term partnership between the Nightguard and the Unbalanced Chapter.
Roger provided ideas, helped Frankenstein reproduce the earth's industrial agriculture and even daily necessities, and guided the direction of technological innovation. The two often opened their minds to conceive various wonderful props.
Especially in the military aspect, the fusion of magic has produced a series of new equipment with outstanding effects.
A rather sad fact is that after the birth of civilization, to master any new technology, it is necessary to verify whether it can kill the same kind more efficiently.
In order to distinguish it from traditional alchemy equipment, such weapons and equipment that incorporate the characteristics of earth technology are collectively referred to as arcane equipment in the empire, which means that this is the product of the "New Arcane" trend of thought, and it is possible to sweep away traces of existence in another world.
In return, the Night Guard can prioritize the installation of Arcane Equipment as soon as possible, experience the effects, give feedback, and help the Chapter of Imbalance to make follow-up corrections.
The effect of the Night Guard's display can directly determine whether a certain series has the value of continuing development.
It's a win-win cooperation, those alchemist lunatics in the chapter of imbalance get the test they want, and they also make money with the experimental product;
The Night Guard has improved his equipment level and can have the unique and most advanced magic props on the market.
The fusion of magic and technology, many times 1+1 will be far greater than 2.
