Hearing Elvis Bishop's sarcasm, Helen relaxed a little, seeing that the other party's attitude would not put his sister to death.
Of course, she would not be so naive as to think that the other party would honestly send the person back. If Church had so planned, she would have done so a long time ago, but now he is quietly contacting her.
It seems that I have to meet some of the other party's requirements.
She slowed down her tone and said tentatively, "Then, please send Finnie back. My husband and I will strictly control this child. Our family will be deeply grateful to Church and you personally."
Elvis smiled slightly, "Of course we will send Duchess Finnie back safely, but..."
"Church If you have any difficulties, I will do my best to help."
Are you asking for donations? I hope the other party won't open his mouth like a lion.
Elvis Bishop asked unhurriedly, "Your Highness, why are you and your husband visiting Horn Bay Alliance this time?"
"It's just a normal state visit. Countries should also visit each other frequently, just like visiting neighbors."
"Visiting? Haha, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as visiting, right?"
Helen frowned. "I don't understand what you mean."
Elvis The pitch suddenly rose.
"Your Highness, let me remind you. Your husband's visit to Niceburg this time is definitely not a routine state visit, but to participate in a conspiracy, a conspiracy against Church!"
"Your Excellency Bishop, I think you are a little delusional!"
"No, we already have exact information. A month ago, Horn Bay Alliance issued a secret initiative to surrounding countries and invited the heads of these countries to come to Niceburg for a meeting."
Elvis's voice revealed a coldness.
"This is a shady meeting. This is a meeting that goes against Heavenly Father's teachings. It aims to discuss how to curb the growth of Church's power in the Jiaowan region, and even reduce Church's influence among the people!"
He suddenly became emotional.
"Ah! How despicable and dirty this is. Our purpose of launching Witch Hunt is to protect ordinary people from evil forces. This is a just cause, this is a glorious cause, and the people also support us, which further proves that what we do is extremely correct."
"But these mediocre people in power actually think that their rights have been violated. They are blinded and unable to see the voice of the people and the erosion of evil forces. They are only extremely sensitive to the power in their own hands."
"I can say with absolute certainty that some of them must have fallen. These people have either personally come into contact with those forbidden powers, or they have become minions of the wizard."
"This is a shameful betrayal! This is a despicable conspiracy!"
"Your husband, Lord Eton Grand Duke, is one of the people involved in this conspiracy! And he is also an active responder. Otherwise, it would be impossible to arrive at Niceburg earlier than other countries."
Elvis Bishop said so much in one breath, coupled with the excitement, he gasped for breath.
Helen secretly despised it. If you Church hadn't stretched your hands too far, how could you have caused a backlash from so many countries? Just using the name of witch hunting to embezzle wealth and attack dissidents, they also blatantly dictate the policies of various countries, and even target foreign business travelers. How can the Cape Bay countries, which are founded on commerce, survive?
As far as Grand Duchess knows, for Eton alone, the number of foreign business arrivals this year has not increased but has declined slightly compared to last year.
She shook her head and said, "I'm just a woman. I don't know about any messy conspiracies. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go directly to my husband."
In fact, Helen knows all this in his heart, and as a mage, he is even more happy to see all countries unite to fight against Church.
The bishop chuckled and said, "Whether you really didn't know before or you pretended not to know, now that I say this, you must know. For the sake of your family's reputation, we also want to control the affairs of Mr. Finnie within a certain range. Presumably your husband is not happy to see that his sister-in-law is a Witch, right?"
This hit Helen's weakness. She really didn't want more people to know her sister's secret, including her husband.
"The so-called conspiracy is all just your words, Your Excellency, Bishop. Besides, what can I do if I know about it?"
The bishop stated his purpose. "I hope you can persuade the Archduke to side with us Church."
Helen looked embarrassed. "Although I am Grand Duchess, I cannot influence national policies."
Elvis Bishop laughed loudly, "Your Highness is joking. Who doesn't know your influence in Eton Court? Let's not talk about your own deep love among the people. Let's just say that your husband's position as Grand Duke was also achieved because of his marriage to your family, right?"
"Grand Duke Your Majesty will definitely attach great importance to His Highness's opinion. Besides, what man can bear to say no to a beauty like you who wants to blow your pillow?"
The last sentence was already a naked tease. Helen was so angry that her pretty face turned red.
"Your Excellency, please pay attention to your words. If I don't agree to your request, do you dare to keep a noble in prison?"
"Oh, of course we don't dare to do this. But we have an obligation to inform the people of Eton about this news and let them take precautions. I have already thought about the content of the notice."
Elvis pretended to be serious and said in a Adjutant accent:
"This is to inform you that Duchess Finnie, the sister of Eton Grand Duchess, has shown signs of awakening her magic power. This poor girl may have been seduced by other wizards and went astray. Due to her noble status, we cannot take measures. However, in view of the dangers of wizards, Church has the obligation to remind everyone to be careful. I hope the brilliance of Heavenly Father can guide this poor girl to the right path again."
"You are despicable! The people will not believe you!"
Helen was so angry that she pointed at Elvis. If they were allowed to do this, Finnie's life would be over.
"You will believe it. We have our own method of stimulating the magic power of wizards. Try it with Magic Detection Stone and you will know. We will show the evidence to the people in public before releasing your sister!"
"Haha, although your husband is the Grand Duke, there are still many forces in the country who want to take his place, right? After what happened, can his position still be secure?"
It can be seen that Grand Duchess is struggling fiercely in his heart.
Finally, she compromised and said, "Okay, as long as you can keep the secret, I will find a way to persuade my husband to withdraw from this negotiation."
Elvis shook his head. "I'm sorry, Your Highness! I'm afraid you misunderstood me. What I mean by being on our side is not just quitting the conspiracy."
"Then what do you want?"
But the bishop's eyes were shining and he said, "Our condition is that your husband will use all means to disrupt this meeting. Note, all means!"
After hearing the conditions offered by the bishop, Helen knew that the two parties could no longer continue the negotiation.
She was silent for nearly a minute, pretending to be thinking, and finally said, "Your Excellency, can you give me a day to think about it carefully?"
Elvis showed a victorious smile.
"Okay, Your Highness, I will give you one day. If we can't wait for your reply by this time tomorrow, then don't blame us for being rude!"
After saying this, he turned around and left without waiting for Grand Duchess to respond.
The bishop stepped out of the embassy gate and stepped into his carriage. The coachman flicked his whip and the carriage started to move.
However, no one on the street noticed that an emerald-green bird spread its wings from a window of the embassy and flew in the same direction as the carriage.
