Blasphemy Chapter 19: Later consequences

Ofiloch's mood at the moment was as depressed as the sky outside the window.

His father, the Grand Duke of Bavaria, had just summoned him for a long talk. The content was nothing new, and it was still about the marriage grant. The old Grand Duke insisted that the marriage granted by Louis IX was a great honor for the Principality of Bavaria and a proof of the goodwill of the royal family of the Rhine League. For the future of the entire principality, Ofiloch must accept this marriage.

Although it was already morning, the gloomy sky did not cast much light into the Grand Duke's study. Five huge candles were burning brightly on the candlestick, and the warm light drove away a lot of the gloom.

"Father! The three miracles recorded in the history books created the three great empires. With these examples in front of us, it is impossible for Louis IX not to be wary of us at all! He is not taking a preemptive strike now, but is just not prepared enough to start a war immediately. He There is no chance of winning! This marriage grant is just because he wants to delay time!" Ofiloch was a little excited and walked around irritably on the scarlet carpet.

Old Reinhardt, who was sitting in the high-backed chair, moved his body and said slowly: "Having said that, this time he has given you the marriage to Princess Froya, who is more precious than his life, which shows his sincerity. I heard that Froya has a beautiful appearance and is a student of Archmage Hierro, so she is worthy of you in every aspect. You saw her that night, how did you feel?"

Ofiloch was not surprised that the Archduke knew about this. Old Reinhardt has been unstoppable in politics and on the battlefield for thirty years. Bavaria has been run from a small earldom to now having the most powerful force and national power in the Rhine League. This is not something that can be achieved simply by luck. of. Although old Reinhardt has grown older in recent years and has become more conservative than aggressive, his scheming methods have only become more sophisticated and sophisticated. Even Ofiloch himself didn't know how much power his father had in the dark. Although the combat power of the Five Thousand Lionheart Knights alone is enough for any opponent to think carefully before offending the principality, Ofiloch will never be so naive as to believe that his father only has this superficial strength.

Ofiloch sighed and said: "Father, in front of the throne, what is not expendable? Let alone just a princess? Louis IX is not willing to mess with Hierro, why are we willing to make such an enemy? Louis IX If the world turns against each other, can we really kill Froya? Besides, if the other party deliberately delays and only gets engaged but does not get married, Louis IX will be ready for military affairs in a year. I don’t think so. Strongly refuse this marriage offer and disrupt Louis IX's plan."

The old Grand Duke still said calmly: "Son, how many marriages between nobles are based on feelings? For us, marriage is just a thread of interests and ties that binds the two families together. It's just a blood tie. I think the real reason why you don't want to accept the princess is because of the female magician named Elesis."

Ofiloch remained silent and acquiesced.

"This Elesis..." The old man pondered for a long time, obviously thinking a lot about how to use the words. "She is indeed a peerless beauty, and her magic power is unusually strong. In my opinion, her magic power may be close to that of a mage! This is the first time I have seen such an outstanding girl. It is not surprising that you are fascinated by her. It's just that , My child, as you just said, everything can be sacrificed for the throne. If you were just an ordinary young man without this talent, I would not ask you like this. But you are extremely talented, the Principality and William It is very likely that your family will flourish and be famous throughout the ages! For a woman to influence Qingming’s decision-making is not the behavior of a wise man! Besides, I haven’t reached the point where my eyesight is dim yet. The dark aura on Elesis’s body is so strong that it’s absolutely unbelievable. It won't just be the result of practicing dark magic. At times like this, you have to be careful about getting into trouble!"

Ofiloch said solemnly: "Father! Elesis will never do anything detrimental to the principality. And with our strength, even if we raise our troops now, I am sure that we can defeat the Rhine League within three years! If it’s a competition of personal strength, there’s no need to worry. Even if Prosis himself comes to the principality, there’s no telling who will win between me and him.”

Old Reinhardt looked at his son who had a calm demeanor and said lightly: "My child, the Paladin is not invincible. The battlefield and the political arena are also completely different fields. Looking at the mainland, although among the younger generation, There are few people who can compare with you, but if you underestimate the world's heroes, sooner or later you will suffer."

"Father, we are the only principality in the alliance that supports the Holy Church. The three thousand temple knights promised by the church will arrive in the principality in two months. With my Golden Lion Knights and Temple Knights alone, I can We are sure to defeat the Rhine League. Besides, my uncle Philip the Great will never sit back and watch, so why should we be afraid?"

The old Grand Duke sighed and said: "My child, you have been regarded as a genius since you were a child. You have become the youngest paladin in the mainland at a young age. With the strong support of the Holy See, it can be said that you have never encountered any Frustration. But things are unpredictable. In the political arena, what kind of blood can provide you with an eternal guarantee? There are many factions in the church, and your uncle Philip the Great is ambitious. How do you know that we will not Luring the evil wolf into your own home?"

Ofiloch said: "My uncle has promised to send troops to assist unconditionally once a war breaks out between the principality and the alliance. The church's request is to build churches in various cities. As a religious country, the principality now has several cities. What if there is no church? What is the difference between having such a condition and not having it?"

"Child! No matter which aspect you consider, accepting Froya will only benefit the principality, and there will be no harm! Are you under the 'charm' magic? You can't even see such an obvious fact! This Ellie The origins of the Sith are so suspicious, but you are my only son, and I have never asked about it. But now when all forces are gathering towards the alliance, don't others pay attention and not ask about it? Could it be that the Temple Knights Will the leader of the regiment, 'Blood Angel' Augustus, turn a blind eye? Are the law enforcers of the Inquisition blind? Where are your decisions and your wisdom? If you continue like this, let alone defeat the alliance. , I’m afraid you can’t even protect yourself and Elesis! From today on, Elesis will disappear in public, and you can no longer be as unscrupulous as before!”

Ofiloch said coldly: "Father, we don't need to be so careful. Can't Elesis just use other auras to disguise herself?"

The old Duke saw Ofiloch's stubbornness and felt a little helpless, saying: "In fact, according to my opinion, Elesis should fly away immediately. But the child has a stubborn personality, so he probably refuses. Ofiloch , think about my words carefully when you go back. There are too many variables and too many unknown forces in this world. Your power cannot determine everything."

Ofiloch has understood these truths since he was very young, but he has never been able to remain calm and rational when it comes to Elesis. Coming out of the study, Ofiloch walked towards his courtyard while thinking about the current situation. From a distance, he could feel the powerful magic fluctuations in the courtyard. It was obvious that Elesis was not in a good mood at the moment. The golden lion smiled bitterly. With Elesis's arrogance, how could she be willing to avoid or restrain her aura? After thinking about it, a feeling of pride arose in my heart. Elesis's magic power is extremely powerful, but what she showed that day was far from her true strength. With the combination of the Paladin and the Archmage traveling across the continent, who will they be afraid of? What's more, Ofiloch sneered, he hadn't shown all his strength yet.

But even with Ofiloch's wisdom and force, he couldn't figure out how to explain the marriage and comfort the furious Elesis. But even if it was really **** ahead, he could only bite the bullet and jump.

Ofiloch sighed and stepped into the door with a determined look on his face.

Rogg was walking around the city leisurely, drank tea, had lunch, took a look at the Hammer of War, and took a nap by the way. After he was mentally replenished, he walked out of the 'Hammer of the God of War' and rode slowly towards the southwest of the city.

A black and gorgeous carriage rushed up from behind, and a hint of danger emanated from the carriage. Rogge's instinctive chills stood on end. Through his mental induction, he discovered that the driver was actually hiding an unusually large amount of energy. That energy was the yellow-green color that he was very familiar with. In the carriage are two groups of more terrifying and powerful energy. One is blue fighting spirit with a little starlight, and the other energy is bright red magic energy rolling restlessly.

Roger smiled bitterly. In front of these three evil stars, it is better not to try to escape. In public, I don't think the other party would blatantly kill him. "What's more," Rogge thought to himself, "Don't I have any buying value at all?" Thinking about how hard he tried to pull Elesis back from the other world, although it was not so voluntary, she should have some Express it? However, Elesis was still as arrogant towards Rogge, which made the fat man feel a little resentful.

Soon the carriage was running parallel to Rogge. The driver raised his hat and smiled at Rogge, but in the fat man's eyes, the back of David's handsome face was filled with yellow-green thorns and vindictiveness, making him feel as if he was being attacked by a bug. It's generally unpleasant to be stared at. At this moment, the curtains opened, and a small face that was so beautiful that Rogge was dazzled appeared on the window.

At a distant glance that day, Rogge was fascinated by Froya's beautiful and elegant face. Being so close at this moment was even more unbearable for Rogge. With a bang, the whole world exploded in Rogge's mind, and every fragment was shining with this little witch!

Froya looked at Rogge's lost look and couldn't help but smile. This smile nearly caused Rogge to dismount from his horse.

For an instant, Rogge's mind was filled with nearly naked bodies flying in the air, and a small doll doing the same action. In this regard, Rogge's instinct is always faster than reason, and his body reacts immediately. The three people on the carriage were all top figures. They noticed Rogge's change at the first time, and all their eyes focused on Rogge's crotch. Although the fat man's face was thicker than cowhide, he couldn't help but blush under the strange gazes of six daggers.

Roger was sweating profusely, trying desperately to calm down and suppress his physical reaction, but it was of no use. This kind of reaction is always about being strong and unyielding, but the more you try to suppress it, the more harm you will experience. The long spear stood straight up, becoming more and more obvious. Rogge hurriedly mobilized his mental energy to focus on the words, but the result was that it increased by one, which scared him and hurriedly withdrew his mental energy.

Although this discovery will surely have endless uses in the future, right now it only adds fuel to the fire.

Behind the little witch's little face that was doomed to be in trouble for eternity, there appeared another face that was almost as beautiful, but looked extremely disgusting. Andre looked at Rogge with disdain and snorted with disdain.

With the same two peerless faces, Froya made Rogge unable to control himself, but Andre was like a basin of cold water filled with ice cubes, immediately returning a severely congested part of the fat man to normal. After Rogge came to his senses, he immediately put on a charming smile on his face and said politely: "These are all big shots. We met in a hurry that night and didn't have time to say hello. Haha, it's really rude!"

Andre snorted and said calmly: "It was a bit rushed that night. My brother was always praising you afterwards. We must take a closer look at you. When we met today, Mr. Rogge really Extraordinary! Humph!"

Rogge immediately apologized and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Andre is a close disciple of the Sword Master, and he is also the Grand Marshal of the Alliance Rochelio. Why did you come to see this little second-class knight? You just lost your temper, you are really rude. No wonder I am. Princess Froya is unparalleled, how can a lower-level noble who has not seen much of the world be able to control herself?"

Froya smiled coquettishly and happily accepted Rogge's flattery.

After observing the words, Rogge rolled his eyes and said: "Only His Excellency Andre's noble bloodline and unparalleled martial arts skills are a good match for Princess Froya. I admire An. Although I couldn’t understand His Excellency Andre’s swordsmanship that night, after thinking about it over and over in the past few days, I finally gained some insights. I only hope that after ten years of hard work, I can achieve some of the achievements that Your Excellency Andre has today.”

Andre snorted and said: "It took you ten years to learn the sword skill of 'Blue Star'? Wouldn't that mean the world is full of sword masters?" Although the words were still sarcastic, however The biting coldness from the beginning has disappeared. When I recalled the words, "Only His Excellency Andre, with his noble bloodline and such elegant martial arts, is a good match for Princess Froya.", I couldn't help but feel that it was true, and I felt very happy. . When I turned around and looked at Froya's side that looked like a hibiscus, my heart suddenly felt filled with tenderness.

For a moment, Andre felt that this Roger was knowledgeable, insightful, and understood the principles of beauties and heroes. It seemed that his brother David had some discernment in people. He couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at Rogge, feeling that his fat face suddenly became much cuter, and felt that the sarcastic words he had just said to him seemed to be a bit excessive.

Rogg felt ashamed and felt a little sorry for Ofilok, and thought to himself: "Lord Ofilok, now that my life is in danger, you can only feel aggrieved. Anyway, the Paladin must have a big heart. It’s very big, and you are a true hero, so you won’t be able to compete with this white-faced Andre. Of course, if you really can’t compete with him, the title of hero may not be worthy of the name.”

Roger then thought about it, Andre made it clear that he wanted to cuckold Ofiloch. Cuckolding a paladin is not a trivial matter. If he were Ofiloch, he would find a dark and windy night to secretly kill Andre.

Froya stared at Rogge with half-smiling eyes, looking from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top, making Rogge feel uncomfortable and wondering if he had put on the wrong clothes somewhere. .

"Lord Rogge, you were very compassionate that night!"

Her short words immediately made Rogge feel like he had fallen into an ice cave, and his hands and feet were instantly cold. He could barely restrain himself and was about to launch a mental attack and then escape.

Fortunately, after Froya said that, there was no other expression. Rogge's wildly beating heart calmed down, but from Froya's face, Rogge couldn't tell whether she already knew that she was the one who provided Elesis with spatial positioning.

David raised his whip and said with a smile: "Okay, we've seen each other, so we'll leave first. Rogge, you have to take care of yourself! By the way, I haven't been in the legion for a long time, Knight of the Wolf The regiment's military discipline has been broken. If you encounter a bad apple among my subordinates in the future, just take action without being polite. Also, there is a 'Night Return' hotel ahead, which is very interesting. Don't miss it!"

While talking, David drove away.

On the carriage going away, Andre quarreled with David again.

"This Rogge is quite interesting. He has great potential. He seems to have begun to understand how to use mental power. But just based on these, it is not worth our special trip for him, right? My dear brother, you have spent so much time on it. Is it worth putting so much thought into him? Is it because you have a similar affinity for women?"

David sat contentedly in the driver's seat and replied with a smile: "My dear brother, in front of the noble Princess Flora, you'd better not say a few words, so as not to betray your country master. Maybe you should go to the Dro Empire and work as a swordsman under your eldest brother for two years to expand your strategic vision. The great thing about Rogge is that he has good strength, many tricks, and a lot of tricks. Trouble. Lustful, greedy, despicable and nasty, there are a lot of them all. It’s almost impossible to touch him, and a great master like my dear brother doesn’t bother to touch him. This is the principle of protecting oneself wisely in troubled times!"

Andre snorted and didn't answer. Grand Duke Rochelio has many children, and the three most outstanding ones are the eldest son Solomon, who is now the head of the Knights of the Dro Empire, the third son David, and the youngest son Andre. Solomon was outstanding in military strategy, while David was good at politics. As for the highest military skills, Andrew was the best.

Although Andre is arrogant, he is not arrogant. He knows very well that because he has focused on swordsmanship for more than ten years, there is almost nothing else in his life. When it comes to politics and the art of war, there is a huge gap between me and my two brothers. But anger has to find somewhere to vent, so a blind crow became the scapegoat.

The crows on the tree suddenly panicked, and a crow fell to the ground. Its body continued to emit blue light, and slowly even its blood-red eyes turned blue. In the blink of an eye, the crow turned into a blue crystal bird. A breeze blew by, and the blue crystal crow turned into countless tiny flying debris and disappeared.

Roger watched with mixed emotions as the crow that had been following him all day turned into ashes. He sighed slightly and drove off.

In a dark room somewhere in the city of Lille, a tall and thin figure fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. He cursed Andre in strange language. Although there was no one around, he only dared to curse in a low voice, as if if he spoke louder, he would be heard.

Roger had just taken a few steps when a small hotel came into view. The small hotel was deserted. Except for two soldiers standing at the door, there seemed to be no guests inside. The iron signboard was shaking in the cold wind.

"Night return hotel?" Rogge read the sign in front of the hotel. For a moment, he only felt that this small shop had an indescribable smell. It was a feeling of déjà vu, but the strange thing was that he had never been to this place before. While he was thinking, the shop was already far behind by the horse trotting briskly under his crotch.

Wait! Why are there soldiers standing at the door of the hotel? Rogge suddenly felt a little uneasy. He squinted his eyes and thought about it carefully. "Well, judging from their attire, those two soldiers should be members of the Black Wolf Knights. Their expressions don't look like they are eating or anything else, but rather... what are they? By the way, they are on alert! They What are you wary of?"

Rogg suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Before he could think about it, he immediately turned around and rushed towards the inn.

Before they reached the entrance of the store, the two soldiers of the Wolf Knights turned their heads and stared at Rogge, looking a little nervous. Rogge dismounted and was about to enter the store, but was stopped by the two knights.

"Stop! Who is it?"

Roger smiled and said: "I want to drink some water~IndoMTL.com~stay in a hotel."

The two soldiers looked at each other and said coldly: "This hotel is full."

Roger looked inside and said, "No way, there seems to be no one inside, so why is it full?"

One of the two soldiers looked impatient with a ferocious face and yelled: "This shop has been taken over by the old man today! Don't you have eyes? The old man is from the Black Wolf Knights! The old man is doing business here. Get out of here if I tell you to, where are all the nonsense! Be careful of interfering with the uncle's official duties!" Although Rogge was dressed in casual clothes today, the horse he was riding was a precious thoroughbred, so although this knight was domineering, he was not Knowing some advance and retreat, fight without taking action.

There was a sudden sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground on the second floor of the hotel, and a hoarse voice cursed rudely: "Damn it, it's already come to this, you little **** still refuses to **** grow old. Honestly! But the spicier it is, the better it suits my taste! Hold it down! Don’t move around now, I’ll let you move properly right away!"

A faint sound of sobbing and crying came from the second floor. It was obviously a young woman. Judging from the sound, she was gagged. As soon as this voice reached Rogge's ears, his expression suddenly changed and he rushed towards the store.
