"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......"

There was a desperate cry outside the door, and the voice sounded like it was about to tear his vocal cords.

Krylov III frowned, looked up dissatisfied, and watched Viscount Fortes Latis, nicknamed 'the head of the palace', slam open the door under his nose and stumble into the study.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong!

Viscount Latisse stumbled and fell to the ground, but before he could even get up, he fell to his knees and shouted.

As he shouted, the palace guards guarding the door closed the door of the study and shut all the sound behind it.

Krylov III took a pen and took a deep breath and asked: "Fortes, what makes you so nervous, and even so uncherished your own image......

Viscount Latis knelt on the ground, panting.

When he received the news, he ran all the way in from outside the palace, and he didn't even have time to catch his breath.

Now he gulped the air, absorbing it and slowly recovering his flushed face...... But that was impossible, and he had to tell his majesty about it!

"Sad wind collar, sad wind collar cough cough cough ......"

As soon as he said two words, his dry throat choked on a mouthful of saliva, and Viscount Latisse coughed a few times and coughed up all his tears.

Swallowing his saliva in a hurry, Viscount Latis hurriedly said: "The sad wind has released news that there is a plague in Wende City!"

After saying this, Viscount Latis couldn't help but start gasping again, because he was a fat man, and the fat on his body pressed against his lungs, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Krylov III raised his eyebrows, "They have a plague there and need our support, right?"

"No, it's not ......"

Viscount Latis shook his head quickly, looking frightened, "There was a plague in Wende City, but they controlled it in time and cured the patient!"

Listening to Viscount Latisse's words, Krylov III frowned again.

Wende City is now the holy city of the goddess of wealth, if only the plague appears and is controlled in time, then it should not be difficult to solve the plague, but why is Fortes Latis so panicked......

Krylov III's heart jumped suddenly, his eyes widened, and he thought of a possibility!

At this moment, Viscount Latis sorted out his words and told his Majesty the news he had just received: "Your Majesty, there is indeed a plague in Wende City, and we have already received the news before, but because it was controlled in time, and it is a holy city under the crown of the Lady of Fortune, there should be no major problems, so we did not tell you about it." ”

"And then?" urged Krylov III with a grim expression.

Looking at the panicked expression on Fortes Latis's face, he became more and more sure of his guess, so he wanted to get confirmation from Viscount Latisse, and if his guess was true, then ......

"Then, just today, Wende City suddenly announced that they had solved the plague by 'other means'!"

Viscount Latis emphasized in a trembling voice: "Yes, Your Majesty, not using 'divine magic', but using 'other methods'......!

Otherwise......

Hehe, his guess was correct!

Krylov III was silent for a long time, and then asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean by 'other methods'?"

"...... 'study the plague', Your Majesty. Viscount Latis took a deep breath and said bitterly.

In an instant, Krylov III clenched his fists.

"'How can you defeat your enemies if you don't know them?' were the words of the chief maid. Viscount Latiss struggled for a moment, and finally told Krylov III all the known news.

“...... Really?"

Krylov III closed his eyes and leaned back, "That head maid is used to 'apostasy', not only has she repeatedly challenged the bottom line of the nobles, but now she even dares to challenge the bottom line of the gods, this is really ...... It's crazy!"

The king smiled self-deprecatingly, and then let out a feeble breath.

If it were him, he would never have been able to do it!

He didn't have the guts, nor the prestige, and he would never have been able to come up with a cure for the plague alone, and he believed that the head maid should be the same.

It is very likely that the head maid did not develop the drug herself, because she is so young that it is surprising enough to be a 'transcendental' mage, and if she can still devote herself to researching how to solve the plague, then she is a 'monster'.

Over the years of his reign, Krylov III has become more and more aware that there is a limit to human energy and ability, unless it transcends human beings and becomes an 'inhuman' being.

No matter how powerful the maid was, she was only a human being, and she couldn't have developed a cure for the plague by herself.

Krylov III, then, was sure that there were people who were supporting her, even knowing the gods' injunctions, and still supporting her research, and in the end she got remarkable results and was rewarded accordingly.

The gods of the world of Assatom are enlightened, but at the same time conservative, especially after the war with the Arcane Empire, and they prefer civilization to move forward cautiously.

Neither the orc gods, nor the human gods, nor the elven gods, will allow the study of the plague.

They may have prevented a lot of terrible things from happening, but at the same time, it was also cruel, if you didn't study the plague, only magic could cure the plague, but there were only so many priests, how could it be possible to solve a plague?

After a long time, Krylov III opened his eyes with a complicated expression and asked Viscount Latisse softly: "Fortes, what do you think the chief maid is doing this?"

Viscount Latiss had risen from the ground, and now he had calmed his agitated and panicked mood a little.

"This ......," Viscount Latiss hesitated.

Krylov III forced a smile, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Maybe it's for deterrence......" Viscount Latiss guessed with some uncertainty.

Krylov III nodded, motioning for him to continue.

Viscount Latisse pursed his lips, "His Majesty the Shadow of Death relies on people's fear of 'plague' to gain strength, just like this crown's nickname, plague is often accompanied by death, but when plague is no longer synonymous with 'death', his power weakens......"

"Now that the head maid of Serena has announced the news, it may be to deter, because the news of the plague in Wende City has already spread a month or two ago, and the Grim Wind Leader has not carried out any news blockade, so the church under the Shadow of Death Crown may have already been assembled, and it is even on the way to the Grim Wind Leader. As for the deeper plans, I can't guess them......"

Krylov III nodded silently, then suddenly stood up and walked to the window.

Through the glass window, he looked out, and although it was still the end of winter, the goddess named 'Spring' was already stretching her muscles.

Spring and summer are plague-prone seasons......

"Fortes, go...... No, I'll write a letter myself!"

Krylov III sighed and smiled bitterly: "We need medicine to treat the plague, and if we need to deal with the plague church, it is okay......"

"Whatever Serena head maid wants, as long as it doesn't touch 'our bottom line', then, you can give it to her!"

"We need that, we need it!"
