Devil’s Son-in-Law

Chapter 615: Accidents! Joanna's Crisis

After Chen Rui left the room, Eliza asked: "This is a good follower, but didn't you just say that a little early? You think you can be a Templar Knight? ”

Seeing Paul's added confidence in his smile, Eliza shook her head softly: "Your strength has reached the Holy Grade and the teacher is the head of the Holy Knight, which should be reasonably promising. But there is an old saying that things are uncertain. ”

“What the hell do you mean?” Paul frowned.

“The White Cliff is a place of rules," Eliza stood up, "and while absolute strength can take precedence over everything, your strength is not enough to take precedence over certain rules, even your teacher, Pasari, has rules that cannot be crossed. With your wisdom, I should say more than I can. ”

Paul's face sank: “Are you threatening me? ”

“Don't get me wrong, I'm just telling you the truth," Eliza looked straight at Paul without fear, "if you want to choose the path Lord Pasari is obviously not working, you have to think about where you are, or you'll be ruled out sooner or later. ”

Eliza laughed again: “What I said last time... how'd you think about it? Though you seem arrogant, I know you're a smart man, and without saying it, you must have thought seriously - don't question my judgment that I don't have the sensory talent to lie to Richard. I am well aware of your hesitation. There is no third person here. Let me be clear. The Romans are only a middle-level family, and you worship under Lord Pasari's door for opportunity and learning, and to expand the power of the family through the influence of the Holy Mountains, as is the pursuit of Joanna's greatest purpose. She is the eldest daughter of the family and does not have a brother. With proper means, the entire Philip family will be puppets under your control in the future, and with the help of the Holy Mountains, it is not impossible for the Romans to become the first family of the Longhuang Empire. ”

Paul raised his eyebrows and only heard Eliza's tone change: “But did you ever think that even if your ideals were successful, they would still be just a piece of chess in the hands of the Emperor, and your involvement with the Holy Mountain would give rise to suspicion that maybe one day, all of this you have worked so hard to run, you would end up smoking away because of an idea of the Emperor! You should put your mind to it and make the right choice. ”

Paul finally explained: “For me, there is no difference between choosing the dragon empire and choosing the church, at least there is only one king of the dragon empire, and there are too many big figures in the game of the church, and I am so insignificant that I cannot place all my bets on the church side. ”

“Don't you see? In the eyes of the Church, you have the dark hand of a king behind you; and in the eyes of Rex the Great, you are a man of the Church, and you will only be disliked on both sides. If you're just a blind little pawn, you're a big aspirant again. This dangerous situation will become stronger and more apparent as you and the Romans step by step - you should have heard that Lord Rex will personally preside over your second duel with Samuel this time, and I'm sure that's enough to say something. ”

Paul had a hidden bead of sweat on his forehead, he came from a negative reckoning, but the authorities were obsessed, Eliza's words were like a stick in the head, and some things had not been thought through before.

“It is not too late to wake up," Eliza sees through Paul's thoughts, "of course, you can give up betting on the side of the choice of the Dragonfly Empire, but I would like to remind you that with the heart of that Rex, it is very likely that this will become awkward, and even if he chooses to trust you and lose you, the most important backdrop of the Holy Mountain, will it still be worth it in the eyes of others? I dare to predict that even the Philips' first reaction would be to dissolve the engagement...”

Paul took a deep breath: "Are you trying to say that now that the Templar Knight is selected, I have to make a decision before then? ”

“Looks like you've made up your mind,” Elizabeth Gual laughed. "The factional distribution of the White Cliff, though it has many branches, is dominated by three main systems. The papal crown, representing the archangel elder, is headed by three lines, followed by two Archbishops, under the crown of Psmir and my teacher, Eudora. There are many talents in the Pope's department, and my uncle, Cardinal Logo, and Judge Hughes, are two brains, with fierce internal competition. Another cardinal bishop, Birmingham, was crowned by Pussymyr, to whom Solandon and the deceased Mana belonged, and whose power has expanded extremely rapidly in recent years. The last Cardinal Grahlin was a faction of the Virgin Mary, much less so than the other factions… Finally, I have to mention your teacher, Lord Pasari, a true knight of holiness, who is famous for his faith in light and justice, yet is not in an easy position because he is too obsessed with the creed, he does not understand the changeover, and almost sins everyone in each system all over the world. With your talent, you should know which series is best suited. ”

Paul thought about it for a long time and sighed: "Although the Virgin faction is the lowest of the three main systems and the weakest in power, it is also one of the indispensable ones, and the Romans do not have much of an inheritance. If you choose the other two, you are afraid that it will only be difficult to be valued in a situation of limited competitiveness, and perhaps you will never be able to take your head, so I do not have many choices. ”

“Talking to smart people is easy.” Elizabeth is so full of color, she's sobered up, "I'll end by asking, have you really made up your mind? ”

Paul gave a resolute expression and nodded slowly.

“Great, I'm sure the Virgin's Coronation will be delighted to see such a promising talent join. Let me remind you a little bit, don't look down on the Virgin's gesture, the Lord Raphael behind us, isn't he an angel of wisdom who loves loneliness? ”

Paul is not an idiot, he doesn't ask the stupid question of why Eliza, as Rog's niece, joined the Virgin Mary. In fact, he also knew that Eliza's emphasis on him had nothing to do with the identity of the "Presbyterian disciple of the Holy Knight" and that it was likely that the Virgin's coronation had the intention of bringing Pasari and the Knight of Light together, at least by sending a relevant signal to the outside world, or by some long-term plot by the Angel of Wisdom behind the Virgin.

Eliza's previous analysis points were critical, allowing him to see something further away. In any case, the Virgin Mary family is indeed the most suitable faction for him and the Romans.

Paul finally made up his mind and gave Eliza a toast: "Well, I'll ask the lady to take extra care of her later. ”

Eliza is a legendary disciple of the Virgin, and since he is determined to serve the Virgin, he must have a good relationship with Eliza.

“Why are you so polite? Our relationship will be quite intimate in the future, and we won't be able to make this living," Eliza smiles, "but before you do that, you have to prove your resolve with action. ”

“Action?”

“Now that you've chosen the right path, aren't you going to change your plans for the development of the Dragon Empire? For example... marriage to the Phillips? ”

Paul frowned again: “You mean...”

Elizabeth smiled close to Paul's ear and whispered, “What if I want you to do it... kill Joanna and prove your resolve? ”

Paul shocked me and didn't expect Eliza to offer such a condition that she would kill her fiancée herself and also be her best friend, looking at the still naive and cute smile on the girl's face, Paul's heart could not help but give birth to a chill.

“If you have to prove yourself with this, then I...” Paul's breathing was a little rushed, his eyes intertwined with a complex divine colour, his heart seemed struggling, and he finally bit his teeth: “I... I'll take care of Joanna myself! ”

“Ha ha!” Eliza laughed loudly, and the laughter filled with different meanings. The laughter slowed down, "Actually, it was just a joke. However, I am very satisfied with your performance, you have passed my test, and when I return to Yangtze King's Capital, I will return to the White Cliff as soon as possible to report this matter to the Virgin's Coronation, with the support of the Virgin, and your own strength, to become a Templar Knight has been ten to nine steady. At that time, you can use your Temple Knight status to gradually expand the power of your family in the Dragon Empire, and even that Rex King will score three points. ”

Paul took a deep breath, he pursued Joanna, although utility accounted for a great deal, but he had always been quite obsessed with Joanna's beauty. It was difficult to make this decision, but for the future and ambition, let alone say that Joanna liked someone else, even if he was really in love, he couldn't care less.

“When you return to King Yang Du, don't worry about too much movement on the family side for now. After handling the necessary affairs, go to the White Cliff as soon as possible. Remember to bring your loyal follower. I am a little interested in the talent of his words of mind... As for the duel, don't worry, because your opponent won't appear if you don't be surprised. ”

Paul said, “Why? ”

“Because Joanna has already ‘eloped’ with him, and this will again frustrate the Camprot and Philip families, and will be of considerable benefit to your future development plans. ”

Seeing the suspicion on Paul's face, Eliza sat down again and stretched a lazy waist on the couch, "It would be nice to tell you that Joanna was actually my idea to leave early, except that it was not the Red Dragon City of the Dragonfly Empire that I let the Light Knight escort her back, but Storm Island. The harbour here is not far from Storm Island. By itinerary, we should be getting to that area soon...”

“What? Storm Island!” Paul was astonished that Storm Island, situated in the dangerous waters of southern Katon City, is one of the most dangerous places in the terrestrial world, with countless crises, and the mere presence of Titan giants can discourage the true Holy Strong.

Equally astonished, there was Chen Rui, who was eavesdropping beside him. He was there when Joanna left. I had no idea that this would happen. This seemingly naive young girl's plan and viciousness were unexpected, allowing Chen Rui to kill Dasheng.
