Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

"—but for the money."

The Grand Duke held Kant's hand and looked calm.

Tina's face changed: "Father!"

Archduke Reknos ignored his daughter.

Kant nodded and said, "Just accept it, it should be."

The public asked to open her mouth, but she didn't speak, and her mood suddenly became very low.

"The labor cost of the personnel, the depreciation cost of the magic tool, and the consumption cost of materials should be settled according to the market price. I will sign the order, and the bill will be handed over to you later."

"agree."

The two let go of their hands and then high-five.

This matter is decided.

"I will issue an order. The civil engineering corps will be assembled in about forty minutes, and the assembly of the engineering magic tool and related materials will be a little later, because the approval of the relevant officials is required. I don't think it will be difficult. things, especially after you won the Far Harbor grain price war."

This is an opportunity to ease the relationship, and no one should want to make another wrong bet.

Kant thought for a while and said, "In addition to this, I also need a batch of medical supplies, as well as experienced pharmacists and healing priests."

The Grand Duke replied: "This can't be given to you. After the Battle of Danfeng and Lucerne, there were many wounded in the city, and they are still recovering. Medicines and medical personnel must give priority to the Goethes."

"In fact, the Civil Engineering Corps is also cleaning up the ruins in the city and repairing facilities, but that is something that can be delayed, so it can be allocated to you."

Kant nodded and said, "This is very reasonable, I will find another way."

"Um."

Immediately, the Grand Duke issued an order to evict the guests: "The relevant orders will be issued immediately. After about an hour and 20 minutes, all the supplies and personnel that can be provided to you will be in place. You can go to Tina's place and wait for a while, or go to do other things. I also have business to do, and if you have nothing else to do, you can leave."

Kant didn't say anything, he nodded slightly to the Grand Duke, then pulled Latina and turned to leave.

The princess looked at her father and pursed her lips slightly, while the grand duke sat back in the chair, picked up the pen, and continued to review the mountains of official documents.

Tina didn't say anything after all.

After going out, the princess still looked gloomy.

"It's nothing," Kant comforted. "It's just the petty temper of a man in mid-life crisis who was frustrated in his career, his views were shaken, his authority declined, and his daughter was kidnapped."

Hearing Kant say this, Tina glared at him: "Don't say that."

Saying so, her eyes turned red after all.

Kant was startled: "What's wrong?"

Tina took a few deep breaths and forcibly held back her tears, but her tone was still sad and lost: "Father... Father actually charged you money..."

"what?"

because this? Your elbows are too...

Kant didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and explained: "It should have been right, you see, Goethe contributed and cooperated with my actions and plans, but the benefits were all caught by me, I showed my face, I did good deeds, and I received broken The background of the archipelago, and then Goethe is purely a white worker, no, he still loses money, the depreciation of the magic device, the consumption of materials, and the delay in cleaning and repairing the city, there is no benefit..."

Tina's voice almost burst into tears: "Last time with the Gryvind swarm, Goethe also went to work and contributed materials and magic tools to help you. Father didn't say anything, and everyone took it for granted. , how good it was back then, how can it become like this now..."

She looked at Kant, and her tears were rolling again: "Father wants to collect money, and you think it is normal to pay... Why does it become like this?"

Kant just reacted.

The girl's mind is more delicate.

Looking at the girl's rolling tears, Kant stretched out his hand.

Extract those two tears.

This is probably the romance of a straight steel fire thief who has never had the habit of wearing a handkerchief and feels that kissing with his mouth is a bit numb and unsanitary, and it is easy to lick his eyeshadow.

He scratched his head: "I really didn't expect this to happen, sigh, Tina, don't think things are so pessimistic, as I just said, it's just a person who can't hold his face, has an outdated and backward thinking, and it is difficult to change his ideas. The little revenge of the middle-aged crisis man who was protruded back and forth by the communist successor..."

"—You said it!"

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it."

He put his arms around Tina's shoulders, and with a bit of sadness she walked from the nearest balcony door to the Hanging Garden of Maple Leaf Palace, overlooking the whole city from the terrace.

"Look at all these beings, Goethe is very big, I thought about a month ago, just after the war, your father invited me to dinner, he was drunk that night, he should be here, he pointed at Danfeng Lucerne with bright lights The carnival night scene, asked me what I saw and heard."

"I said I saw celebration and feasting and joy."

"He said that he saw faces with blank faces or forced smiles, belonging to those who lost important people in the war and could not feel the joy of victory. He said that the celebration of victory was too loud and even covered it up. The mourning voices were heard, and the people who were celebrating couldn't see those people, couldn't feel their grief, but the Archduke must see, must hear, that's his duty."

Kant turned to look at Tina: "That was the first time I really got to know your father, what kind of person he was, or what kind of king he was."

"For him, I respect and respect, I like such a benevolent prince, whether he is incompetent or not, I am also grateful to him, because only such a father can teach and raise such a daughter, and he protects you very well , so let me see you at your best...even if it's just for that reason, I don't have any real bad feelings for him, because I know he's a good guy."

Tina said faintly: "But I heard that you were in the audience hall that day, calling him an immortal fool in front of all the nobles. This matter has spread all over Danfeng Lucerne."

Kant said embarrassedly: "This belongs to the conflict between the husband and the son, and the conflict within the family is innumerable."

He quickly changed the subject and was a bit blunt: "Don't interrupt, you are brewing feelings - you think that your father's charging me is to draw a line, and the relationship is broken. You are worried that I will go further and further away from him in the future, To put you in a dilemma...is that so?"

Tina lowered her head and said nothing.

"Will not."

Kant squeezed her shoulder gently: "Trust me, no."

Looking at the scenery of Danfeng Lucerne, he seemed to think of the situation that night, and smiled: "Although your father is a little annoyed at me now, thinking that I am aggressive, messing, and non-stop, he will eventually recognize me."

"Because your father, Archduke Reknos, is not the same as those cold-blooded and cruel nobles. He will listen to the voice of grief and respond to the cry of the weak. As long as he is still such a person, then he will one day recognize my path. and choices, because I'll let him see."

Tina looked up.

Kant's smile was as warm as ever.

"Far Harbor and Valentine will not be separated from Goethe. The officials I appoint will still be Goethes. Far Harbor will still pay taxes and fees to Danfeng Lucerne. This country will not be divided. More importantly, your father I will slowly see what I will bring to all living beings in this country."

"The hunger disappears, commodities are abundant, and luxury goods that were only enjoyed by nobles in the past have entered the homes of ordinary people. Children do not have to do child labor, but to receive education and use their own efforts to change their lives. The elderly are supported, and morality will truly be true. Return, become the criterion of all behavior rather than the scarce quality that is praised, people transcend the material needs of feeding their families, and have better beliefs and ideals..."

"I'll show him the world like this."

"Let him see that people can live like this, even the most ordinary civilians."

"It's not just the little test field of Far Harbor and Valentine, this kind of change will slowly spread across the country, and even the whole world, like the sun melting snow, like the sun rising in the east."

He smiled and said: "You say, what will your father do at that time? Is it annoyed and resentful that his authority and majesty is weakening, or is he happy to accept it? A comforting hug of my grateful recognition?"

Tina's eyes gradually changed from confusion to suddenness.

even anticipation.

Kant took Tina's hand: "Let's do it together, let him see it together, let him see it."

Tina felt the temperature of Kant's palm, she lowered her head slightly, and after a while, she said quietly, "Kant, why do you know so much about my father?"

Kant said blankly: "...Ah?"

Her Royal Highness stared into his eyes: "Why do you have such a keen insight into your father's mood and the nature of his entanglement, and have a complete grasp of his thoughts, with the confidence in his heart, and the confidence that he can capture it with one hand?"

Kant became more and more at a loss: "Ah, it's easy to understand, even if you ask me why, I..."

Tina muttered, "Would it be better if I were a man?"

"...What are you talking about that is dangerous!"

Tina snorted twice, her mood really improved.

Then his thoughts turned to the business: "I just said that you need a healing priest and a pharmacist?"

Kant nodded: "Be prepared. The Broken Isles is in an emergency. If the rescued people or soldiers are injured and transported back to the far port, they must prepare first aid."

There are also medicine bandages and the like on Earth, but medical staff cannot be trained immediately. In contrast, some methods and even extraordinary powers of other worlds may be more useful.

After all, there is such a thing as magic.

Tina thought for a while, and her eyes became meaningful: "Danfeng Lucerne didn't, how are you going to solve this problem?"

Kant was very alert this time. He said nonchalantly: "This can only be hoped for humanitarian assistance, and borrowed from the few good people in the world..."

Tina narrowed her eyes: "Including the elves?"

Kant laughed dryly: "You see that there are hundreds of elf navies trapped in the Broken Isles. They are also in the royal army sequence. They watch and help each other, which is what the title should mean."

Her Royal Highness the princess blinked, and then said: "Well, that's what I said, you can borrow it from the headquarters of the Muyue Invading Army. There should be many of them, and I will help you think about it."

Kant was a little uncertain: "Tina, you..."

The girl glanced at him: "I'm not speaking the opposite, it is related to the lives of many people, how could I lose my temper on such a thing, but..."

"...but what?"

"Of course you can borrow it from the elves..." Tina said decisively, "but Goethe must have it too - I'll write a letter!"

... to fight against this kind of thing?

The Princess Palace pulled Kant back to the room in a hurry, and then began to write a letter.

Kant probed his head and said, "Who are you writing to?"

Tina covered the title at the beginning, like a puppy who protects food, and said fiercely: "Kant, don't worry about it - time is urgent, are you going to the elf camp now?"

"…Oh."

Mysteriously, it is still guarding me.

Kant opened the door of phase and jumped from the white fog world.

He left a fixed space beacon in the phoenix king tent in the elf expedition camp, with which he could touch the boudoir of the elf queen anytime and anywhere, which was hated by the soldiers of the elf expedition.

One foot stepped on the snack wrapping paper all over the floor. The queen's bedroom was in a mess, and it was the former mass grave of the dead house. Kant frowned and said, "Have you come back yet?"

During the Paradox Elements event, the parrot who was hiding in the expedition camp and pretending to be Derrella disappeared.

He thought for a while, then walked out lightly, pushing open the door of the king's tent.

Two hundred paces away from the tent gate, a group of elf brothers stood there, holding knives and spears, and looked over with grief.

With a squeak, Kant ducked back and shouted across the tent: "What do you want to do? I can warn you, I will teleport in space, you can't hurt me, don't mess around, or throw stones at you!"

There was a moment of silence outside, and an elf said, "Kant... Your Highness, the Queen has an order."

Kant shouted inside: "Which girl... oh no, where is she now?"

"This is not something that the courtier can know."

Now Muyue has two beautiful monkey kings, one real and one fake... Oh, the Phoenix King, I can't tell who gave the order. Where did the parrots go.

Kant asked again: "What order?"

There was a muffled voice outside: "I ordered us to stay here, saying that you will come out of the king's tent. The Queen has an order, waiting for me to provide all support to Her Royal Highness Kant to cooperate with the evacuation of the Broken Isles."

So... it's Dirian's order?

He had previously ordered the commander of the Three Kingdoms to send the news back to the country. Although the communication technology in this world is backward, there should be some secret methods at the top, especially the top leaders of the top forces. Kavisalon sent the news back to the country, and was secretly returned to the country. Dirian learned that, and then ordered the expedition to cooperate, which was normal.

So where did the parrot go?

Anyway, this is good news.

He reopened the door, beckoned to the elf brothers and sisters outside, showing an approachable and kind smile: "Thank you then - don't stand still, come in and sit?"

"…"

"…"

The sharp gaze casted has changed from a thousand arrows piercing the heart to a thousand knives.

After all, these elf officers did not sit in the Queen's tent.

Instead, they invited Kant to the headquarters of the expeditionary army, where they gave clerical orders and mobilized enough resources according to Kant's requirements.

Magic tools, medicines, spar, and so on.

After Kant left, the air in the headquarters remained calm. After a while, an elf said bitterly: "Is he already calling himself His Majesty's husband! Shameless human!"

The other elf glanced at the paper in his hand and snorted, "Anyway, it's money."

"Do not."

The elves who knew the Aurora script recognized the big broken characters with a strangely simplified font with a look of disgust.

He said with a distorted face: "The above says that the cost of the one should be deducted from the captive's ransom first..."

"Hold!"

There was a screeching voice in the headquarters.

Kant returns to the Maple Leaf Palace.

Tina took a reply letter and said with a smile, "You're back? Did you see any elf?"

Kant spread his hands and said: "A group of elf brothers are just expensive, I can't wait to eat me."

Her Royal Highness nodded happily: "Well, no wonder you look disappointed."

"…"

Ah, how should I answer this?

Tina hummed and smiled and handed the letter in her hand to Kant. Kant glanced at it. The font was beautiful and exquisite, with several seals printed on it, flowing with familiar power fluctuations.

It is somewhat similar to the Astral Divine Ring.

"This is…"

"The order document of the Sun Church." Tina said, "Although the church priests in Danfeng Lucerne are treating and caring for the wounded, the medical pressure in Bibohang Province is relatively small, you can take this letter to mobilize Bibohang. Church resources in the province, they have a lot of experience in dealing with the wounded and treating injuries."

"I see."

Kant nodded happily, then wondered, "Did you just write to the church?"

"yes."

"Why do you want to write a letter? It's all in the same city, so it's a lot." Kant said, "I have a little friendship with the church. I knew I would go directly..."

Tina rolled his eyes at him: "think beautifully."

"Ah?" Kant thought thoughtfully and glanced at the letter again. Although he didn't quite recognize what was written on it, the handwriting was recognizable. "Who did you write the letter to?"

"Guess slowly."

Tina changed the subject with a smile: "Okay, don't worry about the little things, Kant, there are many lives waiting for you to save, and there are many enemies to defeat, so don't waste your time here."

Kant muttered: "Mysterious."

Tina shook her head lightly, then she reached out to hold her sweetheart's face, blinked, her blue eyes sparkled with starlight, and she showed a beautiful smile: "Also, thank you for your enlightenment and commitment today, I am very happy and looking forward to it. …I look forward to what you describe to me, as beautiful as the kingdom of heaven on earth, and I look forward to the day when my father can recognize you from the heart..."

Kant also smiled at her.

"only…"

Tina stood on tiptoe, her cherry lips almost touched Kant's ear, she said softly: "Just, let's do it together for my father, let him see something... Let's avoid it, I can't accept this kind of gameplay at all. "

After she finished speaking, she giggled and jumped aside, turned and fled.
