The Church, one of the only nine Cardinal Archbishops, died in full view of the public, beside Emperor Florian Empire.
Anyway, it was a big deal.
"Ah!!!"
Over there, the leader of Holy Kingdom Knights, Damon Reina, who was standing there, rushed towards Columbus III like crazy.
"You Flor Empire actually killed my the Church's Cardinal Archbishop!!!"
His voice was deafening, resounding through the sky and the earth. Even people outside the Imperial Palace and inside Imperial Capital looked at this side in shock, horrified by the news revealed in this angry and sad voice.
The leader of the Knights is very powerful, more terrifying than the ordinary Legendary, but this is Imperial Palace, and there is no way he can rush in front of Columbus III.
Space Magic turned into a cage, and vines that could not be broken by Legendary grew under the earth to seal it tightly. Then an iron chain fell down and covered Damon's body. In just an instant, all the power of Legendary was sealed.
But he was still struggling, everything in front of him was broken, and that ferocious and angry face was staring at Columbus III.
In Imperial Capital, only one-tenth of the total number of one thousand Holy Kingdom Knights rushed out of the abandoned church where they were, and fearlessly killed Imperial Palace, alarming countless people.
But soon, digital Legendary took action, and a thousand Holy Kingdom Knights were also suppressed. No one dared to kill them.
"Hmph! What a the Church, but he used the death of Cardinal Archbishop to frame Flor Empire!"
The voice of Columbus III also penetrated the inside and outside of the Imperial Palace. This emperor was forced to use his resources and divinity to reach the rank of Legendary.
Ryan feels that although this is the fact, Columbus III's explanation seems a bit feeble.
Why? Because there is no shortage of clever conspirators in the world. They will not believe that Cardinal Archbishop died on their own. They have many ways to prove that Cardinal Archbishop's death is closely related to the empire.
When the time comes, we will gather in small groups, drink some wine, and start discussing our own opinions.
No matter what the final outcome of the discussion is, it will be detrimental to the empire.
Because Cardinal Archbishop is dead, but the emperor of the empire is still alive.
It's that simple. No one thinks that Cardinal Archbishop's life can be compared with that of Columbus III. The comparison is also made by Pope himself. But in this kind of thing, who would not put aside the facts?
Cardinal Archbishop, his status is enough to start a war.
This is also why when the opponent fell from the high platform, no one in the circle of nobles moved, because no matter which one of them moved or got closer, I am afraid that the noble would eventually take action against Cardinal Archbishop.
In order to ensure the stability of the empire and the majesty of the Columbus Royal Family, as long as there is a choice, Imperial House must not be shamed.
But among the nobles here, which one is willing to be the scapegoat?
I really thought that there was only the conflict between the empire and the Church in this world.
Therefore, Columbus III was the only one standing there, and he was watched by everyone.
He was so proud before, but now Empire Emperor is in a gloomy mood.
The entire Holy Kingdom Knights, including the leader of Damon, was imprisoned in the empire's prison. Then the empire issued a statement that Cardinal Archbishop himself died in the Imperial Palace without anyone taking action. The cause of death was that he activated some kind of artifact that wanted to kill Emperor Florian Empire, but was depleted of his vitality by the backlash.
But just as Ryan thought, it was of no use.
There are many people who believe it, but the further away from Imperial Capital, the less many people will believe this half-true and half-false statement. They only want to believe what they want to see in their hearts, which is that Cardinal Archbishop died at the hands of the empire.
That evening, on the east side of the empire, a terrifying Extraordinary Legion appeared in the empire and rushed directly in the direction of Imperial Capital Province.
Feather Dragon Legion, Extraordinary Legion formed by cultivating a subspecies Dragons in the Church. Their appearance is similar to Dragons, except that they are covered with snow-like feathers.
Eight thousand Feather Dragon Legion flew for less than three hours, passing through many provinces of the empire and appearing under Imperial Capital. Their speed was so fast that one wonders whether the Church had already prepared such a Extraordinary Legion and was stationed in the Andara Kingdom, waiting for this day to arrive at Imperial Capital at the fastest speed.
Florian Empire did not stop them. This Extraordinary Legion only took away the corpse of Tang Walter, Cardinal Archbishop. At the same time, a thousand Holy Kingdom Knights led by Damon were also released and left the territory of the empire on their own, returning to Holy Mountain of the Church.
During the whole process, both parties acted extremely smoothly, but everyone understood that this was the calm before the storm.
"How does that army go to the North?"
Ryan is confused, Holy Mountain of the Church is still in the southwest of South land, but now Holy Kingdom Knights led by Damon is heading north.
"Maybe... let's go and act with the Feather Dragon Legion."
Ryan guessed so.
Divine Grace Festival ended hastily. Before Ryan could wait for the Church's response to this matter, the countess found him first.
"Ryan, your mother asked me to help you arrange some noble women. After several days of selection, I finally left some suitable candidates."
Ellie The Countess waved her hand, and a maid brought a plate over. There were several pieces of clean paper on which were written some names and their background identities.
"Let's take a look at the first one first. Her conditions are considered the best."
"Avril·Melendez Family, the daughter of the viscount family, Melendez Family is the viscount family of Calais Province, and has a closer relationship with our Clayton Family Chang, they are on the edge of the province, close to Volga Province and Blazing Snow Province, which is considered the junction of the three provinces. Due to this geographical location, Melendez Family is considered to be in the middle among the viscounts in the entire empire."
"Their family has a lot of wealth. If you can marry Avril, the youngest daughter of the viscount family, your territory can get a very good dowry, and it is not too far from Northlands. She should be able to adapt to the environment of Frozen Earth Territory."
"At the same time, she is also a student of the Magic Academy, and is two years younger than you."
On the back of the paper, there is a hand-drawn picture of a gentle-looking woman. She frowns slightly and seems to be staring at the distant sky. The sunlight above her head falls through the gaps in the leaves and scatters around her, like butterflies flickering in the light.
In line with normal aesthetics.
"The second one is Nishi Hoover. Hoover Family is also a very powerful noble bloodline in the empire. Over a long period of time, Hoover Family has many nobles. The family that Nishi belongs to is a Baron family. She is the eldest daughter of Baron."
"Her family is..."
For three whole hours, Ryan listened to the Countess's endless description of the twelve noble daughters.
This marriage is not only related to the future changes of Ryan and Frozen Earth Territory, but also represents a political marriage between nobles. Ryan believes that before finding herself, the countess must have greeted the ladies behind the women on the list.
"Melendez Family... Got a boat?"
Ryan asked curiously.
