Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 559
Adila put her hand on her husband's chest and felt the beating heart. When she first got married, she was a little uncomfortable with the too strong heartbeat. As time went by, she gradually gained a sense of comfort. sense of security.

In the bedroom lacking light, she put her head on her husband's shoulder and whispered,
"What's the matter, are you worried about Masnow and the others again?"

Imric did not move, letting his wife come over and hug him, sighing silently,
"Not only the present, but also the future..."

"The kingdom needs to change. This is an inevitable thing. If we continue to follow the previous self-government policy and let the nobles rule the subordinate territories, it will be difficult for us to take further actions." Etila knew what her husband wanted to do, and a In a centralized kingdom, there are now [-] elf soldiers under the court, which are supported by the kingdom's finances, but more militias rely on local nobles to call.

Even though the time of the dragon tamer family's rule has made people somewhat forget the politics of co-government by the nobles, this influence still exists, and the orders of the prince often cannot be directly conveyed to the ears of the common people.

It is accompanied by various policy issues. The palace has issued a large amount of funds to subsidize people's livelihood, but there are still many people who are chosen by the Dragon Prince to invest in militia training. This matter is indeed in line with tradition, but it is not in line with Imri The current national policy that wants to try to increase the fertility rate.

"The number of newborns last year was far from what was expected, less than [-]. Compared with the birth rate of Qingyan Port, which is close to [-]%, I am worried." Imrik rubbed his eyebrows, although he tried his best to promote the birth rate , but the effect is negligible.

The number of newborns is not even comparable to the population of natural deaths and war deaths. In addition, Asur will feel the call of Asuryan when he is old. He thinks that life has become numb and chooses to commit suicide. The population of the kingdom It's actually showing a slow decline.

The situation in Caledor is in sharp contrast to other kingdoms. The era of maritime trade gave the people money, and they became pregnant while pursuing enjoyment. Even though raising children is a troublesome matter, the palaces of all kingdoms have Complete subsidy policy.

But when it was Caledor's turn, a group of warriors only wanted to gain fame on the battlefield, embarrassing Prince Imrik.

"The proposal for women to join the army has always been on the desk. We must change the domestic public opinion situation and shift our focus to people's livelihood. Otherwise, both the marriage rate and newborns will decline even more."

Headache, this is what Imrik is thinking now. How could Avalon return to normal so quickly after the war? It was because of Elsa's unrelenting blessing, which forcibly increased the fertility rate.

None of the gods worshiped by the mainstream in Caledor control fertility, and now that Sotek has been introduced, they just want to fight and kill all the Chaos scum and rats every day.

Imrik turned around, even in the dark, he could still see his wife's gentle eyes,

"Introducing Aisha's belief, do you think this is a feasible thing?"

Adila knew very well that this was her husband asking her what she thought. If Elsa's influence in Caledor was expanded, then the Eternal Queen would have more reason to interfere in some matters.

Emotion is emotion, and identity is identity. The difference in identity between Imrik and Alarielle determines that this emotion must be mixed with many other factors.

"I have no objection to this matter. It will also give Dracnir a companion. I also want to meet Alishara."

Imrik felt a little guilty, not only for his wife, but also for Alisara, who only met once when his daughter was born.

This is a last resort, Draconir can deprive Sotek's son of the concept by himself and Minasnir's ceremony in Chakua.

But Alisara can't do it. As the future eternal queen, the phenomenon of dragon transformation must be restrained. The ceremony only replaces Sotek with the father of the dragon, rather than completely eliminating it.

If I was too close to her when I was young, it would make the efforts of the priests of Avalon in vain. Compared with the vague Aisha's divine power, the power in the blood is undoubtedly more obvious.

"Well, I will discuss this matter with Alarielle and build large temples to Elsa throughout Caledor."

Adila nodded, suddenly remembering a person in Lothern, and changed the subject, "You and Phyllis are getting along quite happily, right?"

"It's okay, but she still refuses to go back to the palace with me, and she only wants to catch spies to prove her ability."

These words made Etila smile. She knew of Felice's existence a long time ago. After all, she was the maid who accompanied the Dragon Prince for more than two hundred years.

Perhaps it is this long waiting that proves the firmness of her heart. A girl who hides love deeply in her heart can only silently look at the back of the person she loves, but dare not express the slightest love.

It's really sad and sad.

"She's a big shot. She came out a few times before and someone asked me about her family background."

"So you just said that she is my mother's adopted daughter, making people afraid that they will meet me later, and dispelled the idea?" Imric patted Etila's butt angrily, causing her to roll her eyes .

"In a sense, this is indeed a real thing. Don't think I don't know. There is a room in the palace that has always been prepared for Phyllis, and Miranda will clean it every once in a while."

"The room is almost moldy. It doesn't have anything a girl should have. It's all about maps and military intelligence analysis."

Etila snorted coldly, it is a bit too silly to really regard the former Dragon Prince as a pure man, he is just more interested in dragons than women, but it does not mean that he is not interested.

"By the way, if you really plan to go to Kislev, Masno and the others should be enough." Adira who asked the question felt puzzled. Imric had already sent out enough With the power of Masnow, Davian, Iron Wolf, Creon, and the invitation of Belannar and Eltharion, plus the Sun Army led by Ku Ga, this army is enough to fight a large-scale battle. battle.

"I'm worried about some things, mainly because..." Imrik thought for a while, but decided not to tell this matter. If the fate was on him, he would only disdain and ridicule that everything would change.

But when the matter concerned his wife and daughter, his confidence was slightly shaken.

"It's better not to know, it's not a good thing anyway."

"Then I won't ask." Etila pouted, feeling a little dissatisfied, "Then who are you going to take, Minasnil can only be awakened by his son, and now only Ingersos can cooperate with you in combat. "

"Kukulza, Tehenhoin has made a new toy. I checked it out before. It's quite powerful." Seeing Adira's slightly worried look, Imrik was annoyed. With a tight waist, "There is nothing to worry about. I will never fight against the undead champion this time. I will only be Kukulza's pendant."
