I became a dragon in hell.

I'm so annoyed!

Can't the White Bone Emperor, with that dead mouth, say something with a bit of warmth?

Sophia puffed out her cheeks, somewhat unwilling to pay attention to the 'White Bone Emperor' in front of her.

Her father was definitely not as bad as the White Bone Emperor described.

However, what the Emperor said is not wrong.

The North is her fiefdom. After she dies, she will not be able to return to the capital; she will only be buried here.

As for his elder brother and sister who were in the capital...

Sophia shook her head, not wanting to think about it any further. She was the "Princess of Unfavorable Omens," and there was no comparison between her and her brothers and sisters who lived in the capital.

"I want to be buried in the North after I die."

Destin was taken aback. He had said all that, yet the white-haired princess was only slightly downcast, without any resentment or desire for revenge.

Even knowing he was being targeted, he showed no resentment, nor did he become ruthless...

Is this a quality a necromancer can possess?

With her personality, she won't be able to take control of the Northern Territory in a short time without someone guiding her.

Let alone the North, they can't even control Twin Moon City in the short term.

"Not necessarily. If we cooperate well, after you die... I can transform you into an undead lich, or a zombie."

"hiss!"

Sophia gasped, her red eyes filled with terror. She shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, no... I don't want to be an undead lich, nor do I want to be a zombie. After I die, Your Majesty, please don't turn me into an undead lich or a zombie."

"Don't be nervous, you'll only have this opportunity if we work together smoothly."

"Your Majesty, let's talk about my current predicament!" Sophia changed the subject and said loudly, "This is what I'm thinking: I want to gain the approval of the people of Twin Moon City by clearing out the goblin tribes outside the city, as well as the evil mercenary and bandit gangs entrenched in the mountains and forests."

Then we can gradually take over the power and army held by the Lord of Twin Moon City and the nobles. What do you think of my idea?

"I think your idea will make the city lord and nobles laugh themselves to death. You are a princess with only eight hundred soldiers, using such a small force to wipe out the goblin tribe, the evil mercenary group, and the bandit gang."

After several battles, you suffered heavy losses and casualties. At that point, the city lord and nobles here will take you even less seriously, and they might even collude with mercenary groups and bandit gangs to ensure your complete demise outside the city.

Of course, if you have the audacity to transform fallen soldiers into ghost soldiers and have them continue to fight for you, then you can disregard what I said.

Sofia shook her head: "I will not turn the soldiers who follow me into ghost soldiers."

Anna, standing to the side, looked thoughtful. She felt that if His Highness really dealt with the hidden dangers outside Twin Moon City as they had previously agreed, the situation that the White Bone Emperor had described might occur.

The loss of soldiers and generals was something His Highness and the generals naturally considered when they discussed the matter, and the generals were confident that they could keep the casualties within an acceptable range.

The prerequisite is that the nobles in Twin Moon City do not collude with bandit gangs or mercenary groups entrenched in the mountains.

If they collude, then His Highness's situation will be in danger.

The mountains are high and the capital is far away. If Princess Sophia were to really be in trouble, the capital might not be able to take any concrete action to avenge her.

"Then what do you mean, Your Majesty?"

Anna stepped forward and asked on behalf of her prince.

She and her prince could not think of a way to regain control of the city's nobles and the power held by the city lord in a short period of time.

"First, take control of Twin Moon City."

"It's a bit difficult. I can't think of a way to win over the city lord and the nobles in the city right now."

Sophia sighed, realizing that her small force was insufficient to suppress the city lord and the nobles' armies by force.

"Use your identity."

Sophia shook her head: "No, my status as the third princess of my kingdom is of no use at all."

"I mean, your identity as a necromancer is enough. Your identity as a princess doesn't have much of a deterrent effect, but the identity of a necromancer is enough."

Tonight, have your men find out where the ancestors of the city lord and all the nobles in the city are buried. Tomorrow, as a princess, host a banquet for them and make them hand over their military power and army.

If they refuse to relinquish their military power, tell them directly that you, lacking troops and generals, have decided to recruit their ancestors to fight for the kingdom.

If they dare to rebel, then make their ancestors crawl out of their graves and see if they dare to disrespect them.

"???"

"!!!"

Sophia was stunned and subconsciously took two steps back. The White Bone Emperor was so vicious that he was practically inhuman!

Using necromancy to turn the ancestors of the city lord and the city's nobles into her ghostly soldiers, even if she were driven to the brink of despair, she might not have thought of such a vicious way to break the deadlock.

The White Bone Emperor spoke without hesitation!

That's so vicious.

Even more vicious than the fledgling dragon, Destin.

At most, the young dragon Didin would casually retrieve a female corpse from the River Styx and use the white cloth on the corpse to bandage the wounds of the armored female corpse he had dug up.

However, the White Bone Emperor in front of her suggested that she use the ancestors of the city lord and the nobles to deal with the city lord and those nobles.

This...this...this is too cruel.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, your suggestion is far too malicious! If I were to do that, I would be condemned to death, and it might even attract the attention of some temple's clergy."

I...I...I don't dare."

Sophia dared not look directly at the bluish-purple soul fire flickering in Diding's eyes.

This soul fire is so malevolent it's almost purple...

"You don't dare? Then do you want to watch your followers die one by one in front of you?"

"No...I don't want to."

"Princess, have you ever heard the saying? Mercy to your enemy is cruelty to yourself. You must understand that it is not you who want to be their enemy, but they who want to be your enemy. It is not you who want to kill them, but they who want to kill you."

Moreover, I'm only asking you to threaten them. If they don't even take this threat seriously, then you should understand how dire your situation is.

Kindness is for your own people, not for your enemies. Think about it carefully, Princess. When you're thinking, don't just think about yourself; also think about the eight hundred men who followed you to the North.

"Alright, I won't go back to hell tonight. Prepare a room for me; I'll sleep here for the night. Tell me your answer tomorrow morning."

Diding originally wanted to go back to hell, but Sophia's reaction made him temporarily give up that idea.

Ha, if she still can't make a decision by tomorrow morning, then he can't blame him for trying to control her.

He owes her so many skeleton soldiers; he can't possibly let Sophia's 'kindness' stop him from collecting the debt.

A princess who can't even control a single city can't afford to pay enough.

Only a princess who can completely control the North can afford the reward he desires.

He wanted to show the White-Haired Princess that there's no such thing as a free lunch.
