When Marvin walked into the reception room and saw Daniela sitting in the first place, he instantly understood everything.

In fact, from the perspective of Faynan time, the two have not seen each other for just over a week.

But for Marven, it seems like a month has passed.

Daniela has changed a lot, and there is an unusual kingly aura condensed in her body.

Her eyes were deep, and although her face was full of tiredness, Marven's arrival made her smile sincerely.

This touched Marven very much.

The two chatted for a while, and Marven learned that Ferhara is different from the past.

The demon army attacked the royal capital, taking away not only the lives of innocents, but also the precious lives of many strong people!

The fallen angel Tulayan, who was pinned on by the Council of Elders and considered by the people of the principality to be the most promising successor to the throne of the Grand Duke - died in battle!

And the Grand Duke himself disappeared into the depths of the astral realm along with two high demons from the bottomless abyss.

So far, there has been no news.

In order to protect the fire, Daniela can only silently watch this scene happen.

It wasn't until they had repelled the demon hordes that the people of Lavis realized that they had paid a price they had previously unimagined!

But life has to go on.

Daniela inherited the position of Archduchess by virtue of her bloodline power and fame.

But just one night, something happened.

……

"I really didn't expect that at a time like this, there would be people who would jump out against me."

"At such a time, there are still people who covet the position of the Grand Duke."

In the reception room, all the subordinates were evacuated. Isabel was also arranged by Marven to rest.

Only the two of them remained.

The future Ice Empress finally shows her helpless and emotional side.

She looked at Marven with a wry smile: "Can you believe it?" ”

"If that person is the dead Tulayan, I can give him his place. He operated in the royal capital for many years. I knew he was capable of the office of Grand Duke, and that there were many people who supported him—but that man was not him! ”

Marven's heart moved. It seems that there is more to this than I imagined.

Tulayan was killed in battle. It's a pity.

Regardless, Daniela and Tulayan are two of the brightest stars in the Creeland family.

After Marven helped the Grand Duke extract the origin of God, the two were promoted to legends at the same time, an ice angel and a fallen angel, which can be described as a moment of brightness.

With these two men guarding Lavis at the same time, this country of warlocks may one day be able to dominate the Northlands!

But according to Daniela, Tulayan protected the common people in order to protect the royal capital. A very costly forbidden technique was used.

He was alone, slaughtered thousands of troops, and more than a thousand demons died at his hands!

A thousand!

What a concept! That's not an ordinary person, those who can go through the Abyss Gate teleportation are all demons with very strong physical fitness!

Tulayan's combat power can be seen.

Marven didn't have a particularly good impression of that scheming man at the beginning, perhaps because of Daniela's preconceived ideas. But now, all that left in his heart was admiration.

In contrast, the performance of the other one made Daniela completely shocked and chilled.

"Hubble, my own brother. He was outside the last time you came over. ”

Daniela smiled bitterly, "I always thought. He's the best guy in the world for me, he's my own brother, we trust each other, he knows all my little secrets. I trusted him so much. ”

"But. This is the same man, who summoned all the elders last night, and actually tried to take away the inheritance of the Grand Duke! ”

And his ridiculous reason. It's because I'm a woman! ”

Speaking of this, Daniela's face gradually became a little cold: "Those elders don't know what ecstasy soup he poured into them. I even sent someone to tell me this morning that I was only acting duke. The real Grand Duke needs to be decided by their election! This is the rule of the Creeland family! ”

"They even asked me to provide them with a Divine Origin so that my dear brother could also become a legend!"

"It's only been one night! As soon as the demons retreated, they began to prepare to seize power. ”

Daniela's face was full of burnout: "Most of the people in the city are Tulayan's cronies, and they are more willing to trust Hubble than I am. ”

"What do you think these people have in their heads?!"

Marven was silent.

He listened silently, neither answering nor rebutting, just being a good listener.

Daniela was clearly under too much pressure, and in this short period of time, she fought desperately against the demons, only to find that her loved ones had died, and the person she once hated was not the worst one for herself—he was just competing with herself; And what made her feel most devastated was that the person who wanted to get into the power of the Grand Duke was actually the person she believed in the most.

She's even starting to doubt her life!

In the past so many years, he has hidden it so well!

She saw only love in his eyes, but not hidden jealousy and malice.

"Before he died, Tulayan told me that when he was seven years old, he was not the one who poisoned him."

Daniela said quietly.

The implicit meaning behind this sentence makes people feel chills down their spines when they think about it.

Marven sighed and gently grabbed Daniela's hand.

The hand was cold, as if it had a serious illness.

"No matter what, I'll support you."

Marven said seriously: "Believe me, no one is more worthy of this position than you." ”

"The people of Lavis need you, not a mortal with an overheating desire for power."

There was a hint of pain and confusion in Daniela's eyes: "I know...... But I didn't know what to do. ”

Marven gently patted the back of her hand:

"Each of us has to face the dark side of the world......"

"It's better sooner than later."

"Sometimes, we are forced to make some choices -- even if it's bad, but the other options are worse in comparison."

"You are the most talented girl I have ever met, and the prestige of Crieland will be carried forward in your hands. Lavis will become even more powerful in your hands, and even become the overlord of the Northlands! ”

"I think that's what your grandfather and Tulayan, and the dead warriors want."

Marven finally said: "Compared to these, other things may not be so important." ”

Daniela nodded with a complicated expression.

"They informed me that they were going to have another meeting tonight. Hubble and I will be in attendance, and when the time comes, they will vote for the new Grand Duke. ”

Marven smiled lightly:

"Tonight?"

"Okay, I'm going to join in the fun. After all......

"I'm also from the Creeland family!"
