Chapter 556: Deadlock



The high-ranking officials from various countries were all unfamiliar with this new king. The first person to answer was a noble from Faroese.

“We have witnessed your heroic act of saving the Kingdom of Frost, your Majesty shier… so I took the liberty of hoping to turn it into a script.”

The noble from Faroese was a playwright. The release of the documentary ‘riot of Frost’had caused a huge reaction in Faroese.

There was nothing better than the death and rebirth of a country. This had also ignited the inspiration of many playwrights in Faroese.

“This is not something worthy of praise.”

Shier’s gaze swept across the surroundings. There were many ministers from the frost country present. When they felt Shier’s gaze, they bowed their heads respectfully.

“Everything that happened in the past is a tragedy for my country. I don’t want to recall it.”

“This is too much of a pity.”The playwrights seemed to be full of interest.

This was also why the Farosians were difficult to deal with.

“Just as His Majesty said, I’m very sorry, Count Monile. Please don’t say anything that will anger him. Otherwise, he will be sentenced to death.”

A minister of the Frost Kingdom intervened in the conversation between the two of them. The noble from Farosians could only choose to leave after hearing these words.

Shier turned to look at the minister standing in front of him, but there was no gratitude in his eyes. There was only coldness.

“Why did you do this, minister richnet?”Shier stared at the middle-aged man in front of him. He was the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Frost Kingdom, and also one of the people shier trusted.

However, after the attack at the tavern a few days ago, shier returned to the kingdom of Frost and directly found out one of the masterminds.

“Has His Majesty found out? I knew those guys at the fortress were not trustworthy at all.”The minister sighed, without any intention of pretending.

“Are you not going to defend yourself?”Shier stared at him and asked.

“Defend? What’s there to defend against a king-slayer like you? After all, you are someone who could easily kill your own father.”

The minister subconsciously raised his voice when he said this. Shier noticed that all the nobles of the frost kingdom were looking at her.

Some of the servants who did not look like nobles were also paying attention to her.

It seemed that this minister had told some secrets to the nobles who had power in the Frost Kingdom. Some of them did not want to believe it, but they were still skeptical.

“That King was disguised by the judge! Don’t you know that?”

The expression on Shier’s face did not change. She knew that the battle had begun. In the past, shier could not eliminate the influence of the old king’s party in the Frost Kingdom in one go. Now was a good opportunity to severely wound the other party.

“Disguise? I think that’s a fake image that you created. After all, the person who gave you those magical machinery is a demon, right?”

At that moment, Shier’s pupils contracted slightly. Although she still had that poker face, the most subtle change was still captured by the minister.

“My Knights saw you meeting with that demon in the tavern. And it’s a dangerous chaos demon.”

The minister took out a photo and waved it in front of Shier’s eyes. Then, he handed the photo to an attendant, who took the photo and showed it to the surrounding nobles of the Kingdom of Frost.

Shier looked at everything he did without saying a word, thinking about how to salvage the situation.

“Of course, you can think that these are all fake evidence that I forged, and everyone present can’t believe me. I also hope that these are all fake, so…”the minister looked at shier and said, “Your Majesty, can you please swear to the spirit of frost that you have never borrowed the power of demons? If you swear this oath, I am willing to accept any punishment for offending you.”

The spirit of Frost was a very mysterious existence.

In most cases, it would only recognize a woman, and at the same time, it had to maintain the purity of its heart.

Shier was unable to determine where the standard of ‘purity’was, but if she lied to the spirit of Frost, would it still be able to recognize her?

What should she do?

Shier felt the questioning gazes from the surroundings. For a moment, she really wanted to give the order to execute this group of traitors.

However, she was unable to give such an order in this situation.

The knight shier had seen in the Hearthstone Tavern suddenly ran to the side of the minister and whispered for a moment.

“Wha… What?”The minister’s face immediately revealed a terrified expression.

Shier did not need the minister to remind her. She had also felt it in this instant.

The presence of the chaos demon… was completely different from the lazy feeling that Joshua gave off. The presence of the chaos demon that appeared in the hall was as sharp as a blade. Even though it was trying its best to hide it.., it was meaningless before the perception of the spirit of frost.

Shier raised her head and began to search in the hall of the Crystal Palace.

When he first met Joshua, Shier did not see him as an enemy at all, because Joshua could not even raise shier’s fighting spirit.

But the chaos demon who stepped into the Crystal Palace was a very dangerous existence!

..

If the history of the demon world was written by Cecily, she would definitely record today as the most important moment in the history of the demon world.

The demon race, who had been spurned by the humans for countless years and could only live in the dark side of this world, could finally stand on the highest stage of this world.

What Cecily wanted was not to be recognized by the humans. What she needed was to correct the humans’wrong understanding of the demon race, which her brother had done in an incredible way.

So as the second princess, Cecily absolutely had to show the humans the friendly side of the demons.

Cecily’s gaze swept across the hall of the Crystal Palace. The sunlight and air in the human world were vastly different from the demon world.

What really caught Cecily’s attention was the fact that there were many humans in the Crystal Palace that she felt were troublesome.

This reminded Cecily of the words the dark elves had said before she got off the carriage. ‘If we kill all those people in the Crystal Palace, the human countries will fall into chaos.’

‘then the demon world will be destroyed by the Human Coalition army.’

This was Cecily’s reply to the Dark Elves.

Although Cecily had made all kinds of diplomatic preparations, it was her first time attending such a gathering between nobles. She could only subconsciously walk towards the crowd but did not know what to do.

“Is this the first time this young lady has come to Nolan’s Crystal Palace?”

A middle-aged man came in front of Cecily with a glass of wine.

Very weak.

This was Cecily’s first impression, but she quickly adjusted her thoughts.

“Not only is this your first time in the Crystal Palace, it’s also your first time visiting Nolan.”

Cecily’s face revealed a decent smile. This was something she had learned from her interaction with Ambassador Faroese.

“No wonder I’ve never seen you in the previous world’s Fair. Can you tell me which family you’re from?”

The middle-aged man asked a question that made cecily choke.

Cecily’s worries were all over her heart, but this concern was quickly dispelled by Cecily.

She came here to tell the humans that the demon race was not as cruel as they thought.

Just when Cecily was about to raise her chest and announce that she was the second princess of the demons, the middle-aged man spoke first.

“Wait, let me guess. Only the Dinagar clan in the seaside country has crimson long hair. I know the patriarch of that great clan. Miss, are you from the Dinagar Clan?”

“I’m sorry that you guessed wrong.”Cecily shook her head. She didn’t give him another chance to interrupt her, with a smile on her face, she replied, “I’m from the demon world. I’m the second Princess of the demon royal family, Cecily Arnold.”

As expected, the smile on the middle-aged man’s face froze when he heard this.

“Demon! Your Majesty, get away from her! She’s A Chaos Demon!”

Two Knights in heavy armor instantly ran out to block the middle-aged man. At the same time, another knight from the frost kingdom blocked Cecily’s way.

The entire hall of Crystal Palace instantly descended into chaos. In the blink of an eye, Cecily was surrounded by knights and spell casters from various countries.

However, in the eyes of outsiders, it was just a group of fully armed knights surrounding a young girl in a red dress.

Cecily shook her hand slightly, and the human knights around her instantly revealed a nervous expression.

Sure enough, did they really need time to completely change? Cecily glanced at the terrified eyes of the people around her, but the expression on her face did not change at all.

Suddenly, this stalemate was broken by the sound of a staff hitting the ground!

“Disrespectful fellows, put down your weapons!”

An old voice echoed in the hall. Cecily looked at the center of the Crystal Palace, where a white-robed old man with a cane was standing.

But the knights surrounding Cecily were unmoved. They did not listen to the orders of the old man, but listened to their master.

“If you continue to aim your weapons at the guests that Nolan invited, then Nolan will no longer welcome you rude fellows.”

The white-robed old man’s voice was not loud, but everyone could hear him.

“That red-haired girl is a Chaos Demon! She is far more dangerous than you can imagine!”Knight colt shouted loudly.

“Dangerous? I think you are just a simple coward! You are even afraid of a little girl.”

Suddenly, three dwarves appeared at the entrance of the Crystal Palace. Knight colt wanted to warn the dwarves, but the minister of the Frost Kingdom quickly ran over and stopped him.

“Why are you not speaking? We built the Crystal Palace! This place is not only for you humans!”

Frost Axe glared at the Knight.

“Mister Frost Axe, chaos demons are different from you. They have very powerful destructive abilities, and they can even nullify magic…”

The Minister of the Kingdom of Frost was about to say something, but his voice was drowned out by the king of the Kingdom of steel.

“Gentlemen, put down your swords.”The king of the Kingdom of steel signaled the knight who was protecting him to put down his weapon. “White-robed man, I apologize for my subordinate’s reckless behavior, but I do not deny the danger of Chaos Demons.”

After saying this, the king of the steel nation turned around and walked to the center of the Crystal Palace, no longer interfering with everything that happened here.

The surrounding knights also temporarily lifted the siege on Cecily under the Order of their master.

“It seems that it is more difficult than you expected, your Highness Cecily.”

A crow landed on Cecily’s shoulder and whispered in Cecily’s ear.

As expected, most of the human nobles in the Crystal Palace were on high alert against Cecily. They all subconsciously stayed away from the second princess of the demon world.

“As expected,”cecily whispered.
