Chapter 130 The tip of the iceberg

As a master of the Wang family, Armond no longer remembers how many times he entered this glorious palace.

The smooth marble floor was swept away, and the spotless ground was clean and even the old mage could see the luxuriously decorated crystal chandeliers lined up around the corners of his eyes. The bright and soft lights gave people a warm and comfortable feeling. A faint fragrance lingers around, bringing a warm and peaceful atmosphere. The heavy wooden door behind him slowly closed and made a low sound. However, Armond did not show any nervous expression. He smiled and sorted out the bright red mage robe on his body, then walked forward to the lady lying on the velvet sofa, lowering his head slightly.

"Your Highness."

"Hello, Armond."

Lydia lay there lazyly, her eyes half closed, and she looked at the old man in front of her with a smile.

"I took the time to call you here, and I hope you don't blame me."

"If there is, your highness."

Armond looked up and looked at the girl with a little softer look.

“As a member who has served the royal family for generations, I certainly will not refuse your invitation.”

"That's good. If you delay your important itinerary, I will feel uneasy."

The girl said, slowly sitting up, pure and flawless, so perfect that the limbs that should not appear in this world were stretched out from under the tulle. The six light wings also slowly emerged with the girl's movements, bringing a holy color to the hall. Looking at the girl's performance, Armond shook his head with a wry smile. He was used to the lady's freedom at any time and anywhere. When she had not yet succeeded to the position of Grand Duke and was still his own student, Armond had reminded her to pay attention to her words and deeds several times. However, for the girl, she obviously had different opinions on this.

"Teacher Armond, my beauty is integrated with the beauty of this world. It is a sin to cover up this beauty. Since I have not done anything wrong, wouldn't it be better to show myself upright? Since my existence can make the world more beautiful, what reason do I have to refuse to show myself?"

This is something that others hear extremely arrogant, but it is so natural to say from the girl in front of her. She is always so confident and proud that she does not allow anyone to guide her will.

Of course, the outside world has never had much better evaluation of this lady. Words such as debauchery and cruelty are the most common adjectives, but even so, the girl still does her own thing and does not take those rumors to heart. Perhaps it is because of this that she has achieved such remarkable success.

"So, your highness suddenly summoned me, is there anything wrong?"

“That’s how it is.”

The girl changed her movements, sat on the sofa, and smiled and supported her cheeks, looking at the white-bearded old wizard in front of her.

"The thing I asked you to do before has changed now."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Armond was slightly stunned, but he did not ask a question immediately, but looked at Lydia thoughtfully, waiting for the lady's next speech. He knew very well that Lydia was not someone who did things without thinking about it. Although this fair day seemed leisurely and extravagant, if he regarded her as a person who was simple-minded and enjoyed fun by instinct, he would die miserably.

Armond still remembers something that happened when Lydia was twelve years old. At that time, she succeeded as the Grand Duke for only two years and had an unstable position. At that time, the old minister who was originally the general of the Principality suddenly resigned due to illness, which led to the vacancy of this throne that holds the military power of a country. In the eyes of many people, this is the best opportunity for him to get power. If he can control the military power, it means that he is likely to become the behind-the-scenes ruler of the entire Duchy of Moon. After all, Lydia was only 12 years old at that time. No matter who sees anyone, he does not believe that a twelve-year-old girl can lead a country well, especially in the choice of such a military and political position. Of course, there are also many people who hope to use this to control Lydia. In this way, he can take power and get one of the most beautiful girls in the mainland into the room. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone. No one wants to miss such a good opportunity.

In the end, the contender for this position was placed on the two border commanders of the East and West. At that time, many people believed that the Western Commander was very likely to obtain this position. Because he had been in office for several years, he had led his troops to defeat and expelled those foreign tribes who were trying to invade. However, the Eastern Commander had not even let go of a loud fart for so many years. Because of this, many people believed that the Western Commander had worked hard and made great contributions, and this position was almost certain.

But the final result was completely beyond everyone's expectations. Just when the two legion commanders were recalled and were about to officially appoint the general, Lydia, who had been silent in this storm, suddenly made a series of shocking decisions - she not only directly appointed the commander of the Eastern Border Legion as the general, but also incited the commander of the Western Border Legion into the dungeon on the spot in the name of endangering the country.

As soon as this happened, everyone was in an uproar. Many people never thought that the incident had a 180-degree turn, and there were some injustices, some protesters, and some oppositions. They believed that although this little girl was young, she had extremely powerful power. She was worried that the commander of the Western Legion was very good, so she took action in advance. But Lydia remained silent again amid these protests - until a month later.

A month later, the interrogation result surprised everyone. It turned out that the reason why the commander of the Western Border Legion has made a lot of military achievements over the years was that in order to obtain promotion chips, he deliberately provoked the attacks of foreign races from time to time, and then killed them to obtain military merits. Although this has been the case, many dangers abroad have been eliminated. But on the other hand, the residents of the Western Border Legion are suffering from years of war. Although the war is fought by soldiers, they are also seriously affected here. On the contrary, the eastern border area has always been peaceful, and the residents and the people outside the country are at peace. Since there is nothing to do, there will naturally be no military merits to repay. It is precisely because of this that the commander of the Legion Legion will always fall to the end of the honor list.

Until this time, Lydia, who had been wandering around the country and enjoying flowers and raising birds all day long, finally took action.

At the same time as the trial result was issued, all officers in the entire Western Border Legion who were closely related to the legion commander were arrested, and those who had protested for the legion commander before were no exception. In just a few dozen days, a total of 580 people, including the nobles and officers, were arrested and then executed.

As soon as their front feet were executed, the successor was already sitting in their position.

It was after this that no one underestimated this girl who was dressed in an exposed manner and liked luxury, beauty and pleasure all day long.

And now, of course, Armond knew what the current situation was in the Principality. It was because of this that Lydia asked him to go there in person, but now she suddenly said this...is it because things have changed?

"You guessed it right, Armond."

As if he guessed his true meaning from the old mage's eyes, Lydia smiled and answered.

“Based on the intelligence I have obtained, the danger has been lifted.”

"oh?"

Hearing this, the old mage was slightly stunned, and then he frowned.

“You mean………”

“This is the report I just received this morning.”

Lydia said, reaching out and pushing a letter with exquisite and beautiful patterns to the old mage. Then she picked up the fragrant black tea on the table, squinted her eyes and tasted it.

The old mage respectfully picked up the letter on the table and opened it apart, and then began to read the information inside carefully. Although there was no change on his face, his surprise could be noticed from the sharp eyes of the old mage. Then, he slowly put down the letter in his hand and looked at the girl in front of him again.

"What do you think? Ammond?"

"If this is a joke, then allow me to laugh."

The old mage shook his head with a wry smile, but his expression didn't look like he was smiling at all.

"If this is the truth... then I can only say it is incredible."

"The unknown is the wonder of this world."

Faced with the old mage's sigh, Lydia showed an expression of enjoyment.

"When you open a door, you will never know what is hidden behind it. This is the most interesting place. I really enjoy this wonderful unknown, which makes me feel nervous and excited, and for me, it is necessary. I originally thought that my lovely subordinates would do these things, but now I don't expect it to give me such an unexpected surprise."

"But…………"

The old mage seemed not as optimistic as Lydia. He touched his white beard that had already hung to his waist, and his face was solemn.

"Please be honest, Your Highness, I still don't think that an ordinary mercenary group can easily destroy a mage who has already entered the third level of the Central Ring. Even if I were me, I'd probably take some effort to do it. I think there will be anything in it..."

"I understand what you mean, Armond."

Lydia stretched out her hand slightly and interrupted the old mage's words.

"This is why I called you...I believe that the report of my lovely subordinates is correct, and they also brought some evidence that is enough for us to make a judgment. I think you have already seen that there is a person...at the core of this matter."

"That young man named Rhode Elrant?"

Hearing this, the old mage pondered for a moment, then quickly asked.

"That's right. According to the information I have obtained, it is not the first time he has done this, saving the mercenaries in the Parfield area from danger and destroying their plans to infiltrate. In addition, his sudden hostilities with Emerald Tears and the actions of finally eliminating the rats - connecting them all together. I don't think this is an accident. According to the information, the young man has only been in Deep Rock City for a month, but the plan that the Land of Light has been painstakingly running for a year has been almost completely destroyed by him. I think this must be a big blow to the impatient old gentleman in the parliament."

Speaking of this, Lydia covered her mouth lightly and chuckled.

"About his identity... is it true?"

"I have asked the Dongfangshanyuan area, but they did not answer me as always. But this is not important. What is important is that this young man is very likely to know the plan of the Land of Light, and he came to destroy it specifically-I don't care about his identity and origin. Since he can bring me such surprises, I think he should not be our enemy."

"So, you mean..."

Having said that, the old mage had vaguely guessed the reason why the lady summoned herself.

"I hope you can set off with me to the Deep Rock City and secretly observe this gentleman. The literal description is far less clear and accurate than what you have seen with your own eyes. Since this gentleman is willing to help the Principality, as the ruler of the Principality, I must respond without being rude. And………”

Speaking of this, Lydia closed her hands, and a hint of naked greed and a smile appeared on her unparalleled face.

"I heard that he was a very beautiful person. If that's the case, it would be a pity if he couldn't turn him into my collection, right?"
