Your Majesty, Please Behave Yourself

Chapter 12: Section 12

Licinius shrugged. "If you want to do something to me, there are many ways to do it, instead of testing me with dreams. The most important thing is, I don't think what I'm doing will make you want to kill me, Your Majesty."

Tria was stunned. She didn't expect that this guy could remain calm and think when facing His Majesty.

The empress nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in her beautiful eyes: "Yes, communicating with smart people is indeed a pleasure. In this case, I will be more tolerant of you. After all, everyone has their own secrets. I will not ask where your black magic comes from. The source of this thing is nothing more than a forbidden place..."

Licinius was startled.

dark magic

He subconsciously wanted to touch the magic book in his pocket, but he forced himself to restrain himself.

"I just want to ask you one question. How far have you progressed in your black magic practice?" the empress asked calmly.

Licinius blinked his eyes and his mind became active.

"Something's wrong. Why is this empress so sure that I've learned black magic? I did get a book on black magic that can summon evil gods, but the problem is that I haven't started practicing it yet. Wait!"

He suddenly realized that it was probably because of the dream he had just had.

In obvious contrast, Cecil, as a second-level warlock, quickly fell unconscious.

And he, an ordinary person who had never practiced magic, was able to persist for so long.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the problem.

Is it possible that others mistook his immortality for black magic

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it."

The Queen did not care and continued, "You know, Brentanya is also a country that believes in the Church. Anyone who practices black magic will be regarded as a heretic and will be purified by the Holy Light and turned into ashes."

Licinius was shocked: "Will I be purified by the Holy Light and sentenced to death?"

You know, he has never tried this way of dying, because he is an unawakened demon king. Logically speaking, if he really has a weakness, it should be the magic that symbolizes light.

The Empress said calmly, "That depends on how far you have practiced black magic. The Holy Light Purification Ritual is not an ordinary garbage magic. It consumes a lot of resources and manpower. It is usually used to punish extremely vicious heretics. Not everyone is eligible to enjoy this treatment."

Licinius's eyes sparkled with brilliance. He was a vicious heretic who practiced black magic.

Only people like this will be executed by the Holy Light Purification Ritual of the Vatican!

Isn't that magic book just the thing that can help me become a vicious heretic

It doesn't matter if he fails. He once did an experiment. After cremating himself and turning into ashes, he was still able to retain consciousness and restrain his recovery ability. He forced himself to stay in the state of dust for three days and three nights. It didn't matter if he was blown away by the wind. He could be reborn on any dust at will. This immortal body is so perverted.

In the end, if Norn hadn't been almost crying with anxiety, he could have held on longer.

With this ability, you can escape at any time!

"Why do you look so happy?" asked the empress.

"Ah, this..."

Licinius said casually: "Because I suffer from depression, I once thought about ending it all."

A ripple appeared in the empress's eyes. He was indeed a miserable child. He was ostracized by his family and had to practice black magic. He was tortured by hatred and shame and even suffered from depression.

"Will Your Majesty execute me on behalf of the Holy See?" Licinius asked curiously.

The empress was silent for a moment, then smiled faintly: "You know very well in your heart that you won't."

Licinius raised an eyebrow.

"Of course, the prerequisite is that you offer your loyalty to me."

The empress spoke each word with emphasis.

Chapter 14: Marriage Engagement of the Valerius Family

It turns out that the empress wants to surrender!

Licinius suddenly understood that although the empress before him seemed extremely powerful, she had ascended the throne in a hurry, her foundation was not solid at all, and she had not had time to take back most of her power.

As a result, there are too many powerful families and chaebols in the aristocratic faction of the royal capital today.

That group of people are the ones who now hold the lifeline of Brentanya.

Her Majesty the Empress has to face multiple parties at the same time in the political situation, which can be said to be surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Isolated…

There is only one way to solve the current dilemma.

Talent...

Only by supporting a large number of loyal talents to take positions can one gradually gain the right to speak.

"Valerius Licinius, you are a smart man. I can see from your eyes just now that you know very well what my intentions are." The empress said lightly.

"Your Majesty chose me because I meet your requirements. Although I am from a noble family, my relationship with my family is not harmonious. As long as I pledge my loyalty to you, you can support me and return to the core circle of the family step by step. In this way, you can get the support of the Valerius family without bloodshed."

Li Xini rubbed his brows and sighed, "Is that so? Among the nobles in the capital, there are aristocratic people everywhere. You will not choose to trust them."

After hiding for ten months, it was finally discovered.

Sure enough, in this world of swords and magic, many things cannot be hidden after all.

His actions will be noticed sooner or later.

But what he didn't expect was that he would suddenly offend a figure like the Empress!

What the hell have I done to deserve this!

The admiration in the Empress' eyes grew stronger. "Of course, it's because you are good enough. If you hadn't performed well in the hijacking incident, or if you had revealed your sins in the seven deadly sins, I wouldn't have used you."

Of the seven deadly sins, only sexual immorality is the least serious.

Your original sin is lust, which simply means that you are lustful.

Who isn’t lustful

And lust is the easiest problem to solve.

The empress considers herself the most beautiful woman in the world. Since you are so lustful, you should be used by me!

Licinius then asked, "So, do you also use people who practice black magic?"

If the Vatican knew about this, it would be a big deal.

"I dare to use even the demons, so what's wrong with black magic?"

The empress snorted coldly: "Rules are dead, but people are alive. In the struggle for power, any means are allowed to be used. I am not such a pedantic person. The danger of black magic does not lie in the black magic itself."

But it lies with the people who use black magic.

Licinius fell into deep thought. It was undeniable that the empress before him was an excellent monarch.

But the problem is that her enemies are too many and too strong.

"Your Majesty, if you choose me, aren't you afraid that I'm a traitor?"

He asked tentatively: "What if I betray you?"

The empress snorted and said calmly, "Don't employ people you doubt, and don't doubt people you employ. I certainly have ways to confirm your loyalty, so you don't have to worry about that. If you really betray me, you can only blame my incompetence, and it's your fate. Besides that, I also have ways to deal with you."

Nothing to say.

This was indeed a very courageous empress.

Licinius hesitated. "If I refuse, will you punish me?"

The empress glanced at him and said, "You have the right to refuse, but I think you don't want to refuse, at most you just don't dare."

Li Xini was stunned: "Why?"

The empress raised her snow-white, pointed chin and said, "Because you are loyal to me, you will get everything you want, not just the Valerius family. Of course, the enemies you will face are equally powerful, and what you will face in the future will not be limited to family struggles."

"Why are you afraid of that?"

Licinius asked: "This pie is not interesting. Generally speaking, the stronger the enemy is, the more I can get from you. So who will be my enemy?"

"The enemies of the entire Brentanian Empire are your enemies." said the empress.

"oh… "

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Because I didn't say it specifically enough, I didn't feel anything."

"Is it?"

The empress stared at him with a cold smile on her lips: "Then let me tell you, your future enemies will be the aristocrats of the entire capital, including your father?"

Licinius still looked unmotivated: "I am a person who is worried about my father."

The empress paused and said, "Besides your father, there is also Archduke Joachim."

Li Xini's eyes trembled.

Joachim Via, Salvatore.

The uncle of the current empress is now at the peak of his power and no one can rival him.

One of the three great giants of the Brentanian Empire, a top warlock of the sixth rank.

The key point is that another giant in the Brentanian Empire is his biological son.

"What if I tell you that Joachim is already a seventh-level warlock?"

The empress smiled and said, "He also has a well-trained black magic team under him, specializing in assassination, infiltration, subversion, blasting, lurking, coming and going without a trace."

Li Xini narrowed his eyes. "Seventh level? And there is a dark magic team? So outrageous?"

It is very difficult to train a sorcerer who masters the black magic.

For example, the Joker gang has dozens of people in the team, but only the leader succeeded in his cultivation.

And he's a half-baked one at that.

The empress snorted, "Not only that, I also suspect that Joachim himself has learned black magic. According to the information sent from the ancient city of Hera, he is very likely to have obtained the instant death magic in the ruins."

Instant death magic!

Licinius gasped: "Your Majesty, is this true... is it true?"

The empress thought he was scared and smiled faintly: "How else did he break through to the seventh level? According to the last time he attacked in the forbidden land, a sixth-level ancient life tree died in less than ten seconds in front of him, and it decayed instantly and turned into ashes."

When Licinius heard this, he was so excited that he almost had a convulsion.

The empress thought he was scared and wanted to give him some confidence.

Unexpectedly, the young man showed an expression of being ready to die.

"Your Majesty, let me be your vanguard and serve you!"

Licinius said righteously: "No matter how powerful the enemy is, it cannot stop the fiery heart of the revolutionaries! To be honest, I have long wanted to follow you, Archduke Joachim, right?"

He paused and said, "I'll meet him in person!"

The moon was dim and the stars were sparse, and the wind was howling above the clouds.

Someone was standing on the deck of the airship, looking at the city looming in the distance: "Finally we can see Roma City. I'm going to take a good shower when I get to the city. I've been on the front line for so long, my body is sore! By the way, Mota, I heard that Roma City is known as the city of sin?"

The person speaking was a woman.

She had long fiery red hair, delicate and seductive makeup, and a charming and graceful figure wrapped in a magician's robe.

"It is indeed the city of sin, but Stephanie, forget about punishing evil. The Empress has arrived at Roma City first on a blood-thirsty flying dragon. Who dares to act rashly under the Empress' nose?" Mota said.

This is a burly man, wearing heavy armor and holding a hammer.

Whether it is a robe or heavy armor, there is a striking star logo.

This is a mark that can only be worn after being certified by the Adventurer's Guild.

It represents the glorious legendary adventurer!

"I have to say, the speed of the Blood Dragon is indeed much faster than the airship."

A handsome blond young man looked into the distance and said, "I can't even see its shadow."

This person was wearing a priest robe and holding a crystal magic wand. He was obviously a clergyman of the Vatican.
