In the room, a layer of gauze curtains made the moonlight more hazy. Except for a dressing table, there is only a British-style extravagant bed in the room. On the bed, Princess Alice in a dressing gown was lying down.

The eyes closed slightly, seeming to be asleep. It seems that consciousness has not yet returned from the spirit body.

Walking slowly to the bed, Cao Shurui quietly waited for Princess Alice's consciousness to return to her body.

After a few seconds, with a burst of spiritual power flashing, Princess Alice's eyes closed while sleeping on the bed slowly opened, and she slowly got up. A weak body is obviously not as easy to control as a spirit body. It seemed very hard just to remove the feathers.

Originally, if it hadn't been for Cao Shurui's request, Alice would never choose to meet him with her original body even if she used the spirit body forcibly. It's just that, even if she is skilled in strategy, she can't think that Cao Shurui, who is as far away as Austria, will suddenly appear in her mansion in England.

Conversing with others in the real body, after her illness worsened, besides taking care of the servants in her mansion, only the black prince Yarek was the only one. This is because years of friendship and confrontation have made the two of them very familiar with each other.

"Erica."

Softly beckoning Erica to help Princess Alice who was struggling, Cao Shurui casually pulled two chairs from the room and put them next to the bed, and then sat down.

After Erica finished helping Alice and sitting next to him, Cao Shurui looked at Alice who generously thanked Erica and accepted her help.

The woman in front of her, known as the princess, has relatives with the former great nobles in Europe, and has contact with the magic society of the Knights Templar and the last descendants of the druids, and has mastered the wisdom of occultism. Considered to be the tallest lady in Europe, the woman who stands at the top.

She was in a state of weakness for a long time because of her strength, and her condition deteriorated two years ago, so she resigned from the post of Speaker of the Wise Council and retreated in a mansion in London. Because family members worry about her body, they can't even go out as they please (with the spirit body).

The reason why the rumors came out recently is probably because the secrecy work of the Council of the Wise Man is doing well. Moreover, even if she is no longer the chairperson, Alice, as a consultant, still controls the entire council of sages.

Even if the body is in a weak state, that noble temperament has not been concealed in the slightest.

From Alice's body, Cao Shurui felt the same breath as the holy emperor. However, Alice is obviously much stronger than the Son of Heaven. In various ways.

Unconsciously looking at Alice with the eyes of a politician, Cao Shurui spoke softly.

"I came here so presumptuously without sending the greeting card in advance. I am sorry for that. However, after seeing the letter that seemed to be in an urgent situation, I didn't even have time to rest, so I came over immediately after killing the gods. For the sake of it, I hope you can understand."

The first sentence, like a bolt from the blue, shocked Princess Alice.

Although her face was as usual and her heartbeat hadn't changed, Alice's heart was indeed frightened.

The youth in front of him was unremarkable, and his temperament was not very prominent. Even if he was sitting next to him, he could hardly detect the power of the curse from his body.

Only by using the power of psychic induction, can you "see" the huge and bright breath.

Unlike Yarek who can often "see", he is also a demon king, and this one in front of him does not have that horrible demon spirit. If you insist on saying it, it's like a warm sun.

The tight nerves began to relax unconsciously, and Princess Alice began to turn her mind.

Of course, dignified godslayers disdain to lie, so this one might really kill another **** today.

If the **** of disobedience had come, the council should have received the news. However, now that the news was actually obtained from the godslayer, then the **** should have been killed as soon as he appeared. And it's very secretive. If you think about it this way, the gods who don't follow may have been called.

Is there anything happening in Austria that can summon a **** of disobedience?

The beast figure that looked like a gentleman appeared in Alice's mind.

"...Yes, the Marquis of Voban lost the ceremony and the witches to you."

This makes sense.

Then, those maidens who participated in that ritual, I am afraid that they are already ill-advised...

Sure enough, no matter how deceptive the appearance is, the devil is the devil after all.

What's more, plus today, he has already killed two gods who are not following (the council only knows that Nuada was killed).

Taking a deep breath, Alice looked at Cao Shurui with clear eyes.

The kind of "unyielding" in his eyes made Cao Shurui a little puzzled.

I didn't do anything. What is your stance that will never yield?

"Although I don't know what misunderstanding you have, I sent someone to send away the witches a long time ago?"

"Hey?"

"I'm not an old man, why should I use human life to get the **** of disobedience?"

Spreading out his hands, Cao Shurui smiled at the princess who even looked very elegant in surprise.

"After understanding my words, let's move on to the topic. Not only the [Holy Grail], I am more interested in the need to ask for the protection of the Godslayer!"

"Especially when the opponent is likely to be my senior again."

Although he was suspicious of what Cao Shurui said "the witches were sent back", Alice still had to follow his rhythm to continue the conversation.

"It seems that Qing has already investigated the relationship between me and Qing's kin, Alexander Gascoigne."

With a wry smile, Alice moved the pillow behind her back to make herself more comfortable.

"To tell you the truth, being able to be an enemy of a moving natural disaster for so many years, and in the end can maintain no casualties... Actually, the Council of the Wise is the strongest organization in the world, right?"

"How come, it's all because the confrontation hasn't deteriorated to the point of using force."

The black prince Yarek is a political opponent of the Council of the Wise.

As Yarek of campione, it is possible to destroy the Council of the Sages by himself.

Use your strength to fight him, no matter what the process is, you will eventually lose.

So whoever he wants to form a party with, let him go, and never interfere with him. The confrontation with him is a multi-faceted struggle intertwined with politics and action, strategy and negotiation, force and economy.

If he doesn't do this, he can throw off the chessboard with force at any time.

"Well, I think so. After all, Yarek, who has superb speed and power, can't be hurt by modern weapons at all. As for magic, let alone magic."

"However, it seems that since it is necessary to request asylum this time, I am afraid that the situation has deteriorated and force is needed.

Hearing what Cao Shurui said, Alice seemed to have a headache and raised her hand to rub her temples.

"As Qing said. This time, there was indeed a problem with the intelligence. I don't know which organization was responsible for it. Anyway, they succeeded in convinced Yarek that our sage council has mastered the exact "Holy Grail of Magic". Intelligence. However, we don’t even know."

Having said that, Alice sighed.

"It's just that this time, even if I went to Qin Yaleike to explain, he didn't believe it anymore.... Did you lie to him too much in the past?"

Although the last sentence was quiet, Cao Shurui heard it.

"Uh. Isn't this the feeling of a wolf coming? Alas, neither Yarek nor you are tired. They do things with each other all day long."

"Although I am ashamed to speak, it has become such a situation now. Secretary Yalek made the news yesterday that if the wise council cannot give him the information of the [Magic Holy Grail] within a week, he will personally take action. To destroy Greenwich."

"...Paul told me that Yarek is a person who is good at using his brain and prioritizes strategy. It stands to reason that he should know you as much as you know him. It seems that the person who is doing things or The organization should have provided information that seemed to him to be quite credible, so that he was convinced of this matter. In other words, even if he still has doubts, he must be tested."
