This negotiation was naturally conducted in the Winter City of MĂźlheim, which was the privilege of the victorious side.
The chief of the Dijon tribe sent his son, Mattis, to Winter City to show his sincerity â of course, this is a nice way of putting it, but in fact, he did it out of helplessness or other purposes, but the first rule of politics is to speak in a high-sounding manner, so, you know.
Then, three minutes after the negotiation started, the chiefâs son, Mattis, directly took out the magic crystal gun and shot the Church of Light priest who came with him. This time, it was really like a watermelon. The picture was quite indescribable for a while, and it was the kind of indescribable that is best not described.
Everyone present was shocked by Mattisâ sudden shot.
But soon everyone reacted â after all, none of the people involved in the negotiations were simple people: Mattis, the heir of the Dijon tribe, Lannon, the Grand Chancellor of MĂźlheim, Duke Jackson of the Magnolia Empire, and the Dark Pope Monroe.
Hill asked Old Jackson to stay for a while longer at his daughterâs wedding because he thought the situation might be more dangerous, unexpectedly, the war broke out on the night of the wedding. Old Jackson stayed directly in Mulheim, and by the way, he also saw his son Jeffersonâs rare heroic moment.
Until now, in the three-party talks, the identity of Old Jackson is enough to represent the Magnolia Empire, so he happened to participate in the negotiations. Presumably, King Magnolia has no opinion, hehe.
After the young master of the Dijon tribe, Mattis, shot down the priest beside him, he put the magic crystal gun on the table as if nothing had happened, and then showed a quite innocent smile: âNow we can talk properly, gentlemen.â This guy really has a heroic temperament.
When Mattis made a move, everyone else exchanged glances. The Grand Chancellor pondered and did not respond for a while. Old Jackson drank tea and concealed his surprise just now. Monroe saw that no one was talking, so he himself then spoke first lightly: âExplain your current behavior.â He was the youngest of the three, but had experienced no less than they had.
âI thought you also needed to explain why you are here,â Mattis actually said so rampantly.
His unfriendly remarks made the Grand Chancellor Lannon sweat. He didnât know much about the Dark Pope, but he also knew that the other party was definitely a ruthless character. Just look at the canyon and youâll know. It is not known what this young chieftain had in mind, but these rude words are tooâŚ
Unexpectedly, Monroe did not care at all, but explained it seriously: âBecause the Dark Church and the demons behind the Dark Church want to gain some benefits from the Dijon tribe.â
âSo thatâs how it is.â Mattis nodded, and then he questioned again: âThe question is why are you sitting here?â
Grand Chancellor Lannon felt his heart quiver.
âBecause you lost.â Monroe continued to say calmly: âBut if you are thinking âdeliberately provoke each other to test each otherâs temperamentâ, âafter the test can only know what kind of conditions you can mentionâ, âpeople who can sit here are definitely smart people, so they wonât make a move because of this kind of personal grudgeâ⌠If itâs something like this, I kindly advise you to stop this kind of behavior.â
If changed to a different situation, if changed to a different world, this brave and resourceful young heir may be the protagonist of the world.
Itâs a pity that he met Monroe.
Mattis, who was directly pierced, couldnât help frowning: âWell, it looks like you are very smart, I donât need to play any tricks.â
âThank your God of Light, you still know that you are playing tricks,â Monroe mocked without blinking his eyes.
Old Jackson listened, feeling that Monroeâs words were very characteristic of Hill.
Mattis couldnât help but clench his fist after being mocked like this, then unclenched it, then he lowered his eyes to look at his hands and explained as quickly as he could: âThe Church of Light promised my father a lot of things, my father hesitated, and finally I pushed him and he started this war. Then after it failed, I persuaded him to let me negotiate again.â He is very shrewd, but after all, he is in his early twenties, so his control over his emotions is still not perfect.
âSounds like we should settle the bill with you,â said Grand Chancellor Lannon said nonchalantly.
âNo, you should thank me.â Mattis also recovered his emotions, he said seriously: âBecause this current situation was given to you by me.â
Old Jackson sneered: âYou dare to say that, the younger generation is really to be reckoned with.â
Mattis didnât take the sarcasm at all, he continued: âIâve been watching the projection stones, Iâve watched the movies, and Iâve been inspired by many things. I understand that Dijon cannot defeat a nation with these ideas, even with the help of the Church of Light.â He seemed to have some ideas and some bearing.
âSo, you deliberately pushed this war,â Grand Chancellor Lannon said, it turned out that the other party also accepted the influence of the demon culture: âYou let so many people die for your own selfish desires.â
âYes, it is for my selfish desire,â Mattis admitted without changing his face: âI am my fatherâs heir, but he prefers my younger brother now, my position is in jeopardy, and the Church of Light does not support me because I am close to the demon culture, so I needed to do something.â
âIt sounds like youâre committing treason,â Monroe said.
âThis country was originally mine, what treason?â Mattis said casually, his voice was very imposing at this moment, âI am the future chief of the Dijon tribe, it is only right that they bleed for me and die for me.â
However, Monroe was not affected in the slightest: âOh, so you killed the church member who came with you in the first place.â
âYes.â Mattis was a little surprised to see such a calm Monroe. Generally speaking, it would be a little moving to see such a remarkable person like him. He is not narcissistic, because objectively, he is indeed powerful enough, but except for the initial surprise, the three people on the opposite side didnât react at all. Is this the style of a great country⌠But what he didnât know was that these people usually faced Hill, that evildoer, a lot, and they were already used to it, but compared to HillâŚwellâŚyou know. With these thoughts flashing in his mind, Mattise quickly dismissed the distractions. He knew what he had to do and what to say: âI need a safe place to talk, as long as you support me to become the chief, I am willing to pay some price.â That was the point.
âI roughly understand what you mean,â Monroe nodded, âyour point is that a country that is not your country is not your country.â Monroeâs words were slightly convoluted, but everyone in the room understood what he meant.
Mattis nodded happily: âYou can understand me, Iâm starting to like you, Your Holiness the Pope, I think we can get along well, the Dark Church can replace the former position of the Church of Light in the Dijon tribe.â He threw out a big bargaining chip straight away.
But Monroe did not speak for a long time.
âWhatâs wrong?â Mattis asked, âIs there anything else you want?â He was a little impatient.
âActually, in terms of identity, I canât accuse you of anything⌠Might as well say it also helped a lot.â Monroeâs voice was still light, and there was no emotion: âIf thatâs the case, then itâs okay.â If Hill is here, he will find that Monroe is a little unhappy at this time.
The initial actions of Mattis made the negotiation less tense than it should have been, making the atmosphere very strange for a while. The thinking of both Old Jackson and Grand Chancellor Lannon was disrupted. They listened to the conversation between Monroe and Mattis, and then their broken thoughts were reorganized little by little. After that, both sides made requests in place of their own empires, and then it was time for some usual bullshit talk, which had nothing to do with Monroe, but he still sat in.
This war looked anticlimactic, but the outcome was the result of too many factors, and the real world is not supposed to be that dramatic. So many people died, so many people shouted to fight for glory, those Dijon people, those MĂźlheim people, in the end, it was only a political struggle.
After Grand Chancellor Lannon came out of the room, his heart was heavy. He looked at the clear sky of MĂźlheim and was silent for a long time.
Most of the buildings in this area of Winter City are dome-style. Not far away is the White familyâs dome which is made of neatly cut gray-blue rocks, the gaps between the rocks can be clearly seen under the light of the setting sun, which makes the whole building look simple and majestic, and makes the observersâ mind enlightened. The dome has a golden spire, compared to the entire simple and majestic building, the spire was built quite exquisitely, with a knotted branch on the base of the flower bone, holding a golden six-petaled snowflake at the top, flickering a little golden light below the blue dome of heaven.
The White family has also come to an end.
Grand Chancellor Lannonâs mood suddenly became heavier, and he sighed slowly.
A familiar voice sounded next to him: âYou donât have to be like that.â
The Grand Chancellor turned his head and saw the Dark Pope Monroe.
âHumans have always been that way, moreover, he was an ambitious and ruthless man,â continued Monroe, who could see why Grand Chancellor Lannon was sad.
âAn ambitious and ruthless man⌠According to the concept of the demons, it is indeed the case.â Grand Chancellor Lannon smiled bitterly, his voice a little desolate: âYou donât understand the complexity of human beings.â
âIs that so.â Monroe just said this, without explaining that he was once a human being, nor did he explain that he had experienced all the warmth and coldness of human beings. There was no need.
âBut itâs really good to be a demon.â After saying this, the Grand Chancellor smiled slightly, and then showed a worried expression: âI donât know who can take over my class after I die in his year, the Ice Emperorâs current courtiers are not all mediocre people, but they lack a lot compared to me.â This is not narcissism, but the truth.
Monroe replied, âItâs not appropriate for you to say this to me.â
âWhen people are old, they like to ramble on, forgive me,â said the Grand Chancellor sincerely.
âExcept if youâre asking for help,â Monroe said.
ââŚIs it alright?â the Grand Chancellor asked expectantly. In fact, thatâs what he meant when he said this. He wanted to ask Monroe if there was a way for humans to become demons.
âIâm not very clear, Iâll ask other demons.â Monroe replied: âThere are two ways I know at present, the first one is definitely impossible for you to do, and the second seems to require a lot of sacrificesâŚâ The first one is death knight, which will directly kill the Grand Chancellor, and the second one is the blood ghost, Monroe just heard about it, not very clear.
âOkay.â The Grand Chancellor bowed deeply: âThank you, Your Holiness.â
âItâs just a matter of lifting a hand,â Monroe said.
The Grand Chancellor hesitated for a moment, and finally said, âActually, I have doubts. In fact, from your point of view, it would be better for a human like me to die completely.â
Monroe said lightly: âIt is also for the sake of a trace of thought in my heart, and the Demon King will definitely do the same.â
Grand Chancellor Lennon was stunned for a moment: âThought in your heart?â He had recently read some novels, and in an instant, his imagination roamed for a while.
Monroe apparently didnât intend to explain: âItâs just a small matter anyway.â He ended the conversation with this sentence, and then he painted the symbol of the Dark God on his chest: âHave a good day, may the Dark God bless you, Grand Chancellor.â
The Grand Chancellor understood that this was the end of the conversation, so he also bowed back: âThank you for your blessing, Your Holiness.â Saying âmay the Dark God bless youâ sounds like a curse, not a blessing⌠Grand Chancellor Lennon couldnât help but think soâŚ
Monroe picked up his cane and nodded and smiled at him, and after the Grand Chancellor blinked, he saw him disappear directly in place.
The Grand Chancellor couldnât help but sigh again, but the feeling was completely different from the previous one.
ä¸ä¸
When Monroe found Hill, the latter was sleeping. After the banquet last night, Hill had a new inspiration for the Demon Realm Amusement Park, so he stayed up all night until noon the next day. In fact, his body is not tired, but after being a normal human being for more than 20 years, his heart is still very tired after not sleeping all night, so he decisively climbed into bed and fell asleep peacefully. Speaking of which, one of the great advantages of being a Demon King is that he never suffers from insomnia, and he falls asleep immediately if he wants to. However, there is also a small disadvantage, there is no bedtime thinking before falling asleep. Of course, the pros still outweigh the cons, after all, it is still within his own control.
Hill felt Monroeâs breath in his sleep, but he didnât plan to wake up, but continued to sleep. When he woke up, it was completely dark, he sat up from the bed, and immediately saw Monroe sitting by the window, he was looking at the night view of Winter City.
Still waiting ahâŚ
âItâs rare to see you so idle,â Hill actually slightly touched inside, but still said so on the surface.
âThere are some things, but itâs not important.â Monroe turned around and said, âThatâs why I just want to be capricious and stay with you.â
So thatâs it, ah⌠Hill grumbled, âYou should have woken me up.â
âItâs not bad to just be together,â Monroe said.
âThatâs true.â Hill couldnât help but smile, it was also a very good feeling to wake up and see Monroe by his side. He patted the bed gesturing for Monroe to sit next to him, âWell⌠I was going to ask about the negotiations, but now, Iâd really prefer to spend some quiet time alone with you.â
âOkay.â Monroe bent the corner of his lower lip.
It was snowing again outside, and the snowflakes drifted quietly into the night.
Hill held Monroe for a while, feeling that his brain was slowly waking up, and his senses returning to him, which made him feel a little annoyed, and felt that such a very awake state was not very good.
Monroe was keenly aware of his mood, but he didnât speak, just shook his hand.
Hill smiled at him, then said, âOkay, we can talk.â
So, Monroe told Hill everything that happened in the negotiations. After hearing this, Hill let himself lie down on the bed again: âAh, it sounds like a really powerful person.â
âHe is indeed a powerful person, and he controls the emperorâs ruthlessness very well,â Monroe said.
âAre you going to say âbutâ?â Hill asked.
âYes, I would say âbutâ, the emperor needs more than just ruthlessness,â Monroe said.
âYou donât like him very much,â Hill said, looking at the ceiling.
âNo, I donât care about him, heâs just irrelevant,â Monroe said.
âAlmost everyone doesnât matter to you.â Hill couldnât help laughing, and then he kicked Monroe: âYou do this every time, and then you will follow it with âonly you are importantâ remark⌠If you keep doing this, youâll make my head bigger.â
Monroe smiled and said nothing.
Hill looked at such a Monroe and was filled with evil thoughts: ââŚSo, are you not going to ask me which head?â
âŚThis conversation suddenly turned crooked, as expected of Hill.
In short, after some crooked words, Hill rested on Monroeâs thigh and continued to look at the ceiling: âIf the other party has ambitions, then you can just let it go. I donât really want to engage in political struggles, so Iâll leave it to you.â
âNot interested?â Monroe asked.
âThere is still some interest, itâs just that the more I do this, the more disappointed I become with humanity.â Hill closed his eyes and said, âThe more disappointed I am with humanity, the more ruthless I become. I think my current self is just right, I donât want to become more cold, Iâm going to engage in anime, novels, and movies. I want to immerse myself in the virtual world and feel true love.â
Then he was kissed by Monroe.
Then Monroeâs low voice came: âOkay, you do what you like, the unclean things, let me solve it for you, Hill.â
Hill couldnât help hugging Monroe tightly: âYou are so nice, I love you.â
âI love you too,â Monroe replied.
Where does this love come from, and what does it consist of when you look into it?
Who cares? Donât care. Itâs enough to hug, kiss, and stick together.
Of course, it would be better to be able to pa pa pa!
With this thought in mind, Hill stretched out his paws.
Wherever the love comes, it comes naturally. Hey.\n<< TOC >>
