first wizarding world war.

Chapter 370 Duchess Mesu Betrayed
When Charlotte was with Anne, she just wanted to marry a beautiful, rich and beautiful woman and reach the peak of her life.

As the son of a merchant, Charlotte Mecklen did not know much about the nobility of the empire. As a time traveler, Charlotte did not have any relevant memories and had no interest in exploring these things that she thought were useless.

Therefore, it was a long time before he learned about the huge power of the Breton family.

Before, Charlotte was complacent about this, thinking that she had got a pair of long and straight beautiful legs, but after being reminded by the Black Dragon, she suddenly realized that the Brittany family was too powerful.

Anne was able to find a large number of extraordinary objects in the Earl's study, some of which were even high-level extraordinary objects.

That's a study, not the Brittany family's treasure house!

When Charlotte thought that the malice directed at her might come from the Emperor of Fars, she became a little discouraged and said, "If your guess is correct, then there is nothing we can do?"

"Can we still make the emperor apologize?"

The Black Dragon smiled slightly and said, "The emperor may not always be the emperor."

Charlotte was stunned for a moment. He stared at the black dragon and couldn't believe that he, a time traveler, hadn't even thought of rebelling yet, but this old lizard man was already thinking about it.

Seeing Charlotte's reaction, the Black Dragon whispered, "Your contribution is already very great, but do you think you can get even the title of Baron?"

Charlotte thought about it, shook her head and said, "Absolutely not! I am only a first-class councillor at the 24th level, and the baron is the seventh-rank position in the empire. Moreover, the merits I can get so far in the war are almost at the top, and it is difficult to get more merits. And it will take more merits to get promoted."

Whether it was the Fars Empire or other countries in the Old World, the only ones who could truly rise to high positions were from noble families. Even if a commoner had made countless contributions, the ceiling for promotion was always limited. Charlotte was already an anomaly in the Fars Empire, having broken through an insurmountable class purely by merit. In the hundreds of years of Fars history, he was also one of the few people who could do so. However, he did not need any merit in the Lionheart Dynasty and Ingrimar. As long as the emperor was happy, he could get a higher position than in Fars.

The Black Dragon said calmly: "But if you are the son-in-law of His Majesty Brittany, your future may be the Grand Duke of Mecklen."

Charlotte couldn't help but laugh. He really hadn't thought of this, but then his face became serious and he said, "Lord Black Dragon, you and I know this matter. From now on, don't mention it again."

The black dragon nodded and said, "I will follow your orders."

Charlotte pondered for a long time and said, "Then let's wait patiently!"

"See what Strasbourg is going to do with me."

Charlotte and Black Dragon discussed for a while and made another decision. Not only should they continue to send orcs to Cappadocia, but they should also attract a group of human immigrants from Cappadocia. If they want to bridge the gap between humans and orcs, they must allow the population to flow and live together, and they must not form a gathering like the orc tribes.

The Red Dragon Strait, which Charlotte controls now, is the only strait that can run through the Old World and is also the most prosperous commercial channel. Passing through the Red Dragon Strait can save at least several thousand kilometers of sailing, which is much closer than bypassing the North Continent or the South Continent. Cappadocia also has an ocean trade fleet of hundreds of merchant ships. The trade line of the Red Dragon Strait should be restored as soon as possible to attract other fleets to sail through.

Charlotte also thought that Black Dragon's suggestion was very good, so she handed the matter over to Black Dragon. Charlotte didn't have to wait long this time...

A month later, the messenger from Strasbourg arrived in Redcliff City.

Well, Charlotte almost thought that Julius Axel VI tacitly allowed him to establish a separatist regime on the north shore of the Red Dragon Strait.

The messenger brought a new job appointment. Charlotte was promoted from the 24th grade first-level political councilor to the 23rd grade second-level political councilor. At the same time, she also gained an additional political identity: the general affairs officer of the eleven cities in the Red Dragon Strait and the commander of the Red Dragon Sea war zone!

The appointment was acceptable, and Charlotte could not say that she was dissatisfied, but she could still vaguely sense that the emperor's indifference had increased.

He still remembers that when he accepted his first promotion, the documents came from three directions: the General Office of the Central Government, His Majesty the Emperor, and Her Royal Highness the Empress. But now it is no longer so complicated. All appointments come from the General Office of the Central Government, and there are no more reward documents from the Emperor and the Empress.

Charlotte sighed. She certainly couldn't alienate herself from the Breton family for an emperor she had never met. That would be too stupid.

After Charlotte got her new position and government documents, the first thing she did was to expand the Knights of Favonius. She incorporated all the orc warriors into the Knights of Favonius, making this knightly order, which was transformed from a patrol army, the largest knightly order in the Old Continent with the largest number of soldiers.

Its scale even exceeds that of the Royal Knights of the five great empires. After all, this world is dominated by extraordinary combat. The combat power of the Royal Knights of the major empires, calculated by the quality and number of extraordinary people, is such a large force that no knightly order has ever maintained.

It can be called the first knight order in the Old World!
After Charlotte reorganized the Knights of Favonius, he wanted to abide by the rules and devote all his energy to training so that he could improve his strength as much as possible. In the near future, when facing the evil god, he would have more chances to survive. However, not long after he received the promotion document, the empire sent another messenger, and the content of the document sent this time was too horrifying.

Charlotte even felt that, let alone the native novelists of the Fars Empire, even the online writers on Earth might not be able to have such a wild imagination. It can only be said that history is more magical than fiction.

An incredible event occurred in the Fars Empire that shocked the government and the country!
Duchess Methu has committed treason!

The Duchess led all the members of her family and the Northern Fleet to join Byron. It was said that she also won the favor of a certain Blood Ancestor and became a vampire!
When Charlotte received the document, she almost wanted to ask, "Does the Empire's messenger also work part-time delivering novel manuscripts?"

"Which new author came up with this crappy plot?"

But the stark reality told him that this was indeed true, and it wasn't long before the same news came from Menilman's Imperial Rose Fleet that Grand Duchess Mesu had indeed committed treason and defected to Byron. Now the Northern Fleet on the sea was a formidable enemy rather than a reliable ally.

It took Charlotte at least three or four days to recover. He still couldn't accept such shocking news.

The treason of Grand Duchess Mesu meant that the fruits of victory that the Empire had won in the two naval battles not long ago had all rotted away, and the naval advantage that had just been gained was also equalized by Byron. The war between the two sides entered the next more brutal stage.
