"Military Princess Crusch has openly declared that she will break with the great dragons, but even so, the King's Choice Badge still chose her as a candidate. She is so disrespectful to dragons! What are we afraid of? I advocate the abolition of Emilia's eligibility to be the king. Otherwise, do you want the elves to rule over us humans in the future? If she succeeds in becoming the king of the Kingdom of Lukenica, we will become sinners in the future!"

With a creak, the door of the Sages' Meeting Room was pushed open.

"We are in a meeting! All outsiders please leave... Lord Border Earl of Roswaal?"

The nearby members of the Council of Sages were about to get angry, but when they saw the newcomer, they did not dare to get angry. After all, Roswaal still had a very high status in the Kingdom of Luknica.

Moreover, he is also the border force that supports Emilia.

"Ah, it seems that I didn't have time to attend your meeting. Please forgive my impoliteness."

Roswaal finished speaking in a strange tone, and then bowed in a cynical manner.

"No... If it were you, you would be qualified to participate in this meeting."

The members of the Council of Sages began to compliment Roswaal.

"Thank you very much for your generosity."

Roswaal said this with a weird smile on his face, but suddenly his expression turned serious.

"Emilia must participate in the royal election."

"You... do you realize what you are saying? We know that you are the one who supported Emilia and have high hopes for her, but we really can't let her go in the current situation."

The member of the Sage Society spoke up.

"If you intend to disqualify my candidate from the election for no reason, I will regard it as a betrayal of the kingdom, and I will become the enemy of the kingdom."

Roswaal said coldly.

The air at the scene suddenly froze.

The Border Lord of Roswaal is the shield of the border of the Kingdom of Luknica.

And this shield is only based on his personal strength, not on the fact that he owns an army.

Therefore, he could threaten the Council of Sages on his own behalf without having to worry about whether his subordinates would join him in rebelling against the kingdom, because he alone possessed such military force.

In fact, Roswaal had no choice.

According to the instructions in the Gospel, he asked Elsa to assassinate Emilia in order to lure out the person who would change the world. As a result, she did lure out someone who would change the world, but the problem was that the people she lured out were Moyin and Mizhou, two people who were so powerful that he could not control them at all.

Subaru Natsuki, who was supposed to appear in the original design of the gospel, was directly blocked by Mi Zhou and could not get out. This led to one wrong step after another, and it even reached the point where Emilia was completely out of his control. The Sages' Association was also considering whether to revoke Emilia's qualification as the king's chooser.

He went to find the Killer's Guild, where there was a Sin Priest and all his men were experts in killing people.

Unexpectedly, in just two days, the killer guild that was supposed to clean up the mess was directly expelled and all its members died. This shows how dangerous Moyin and Mizhou are.

He would never fight Moyin and Mizhou head-on.

But if he wants to revive his teacher, the Greedy Witch Echidna, he must lure out the dragon and slay it to obtain dragon blood. To lure out the dragon, he must allow Emilia to successfully participate in the King's Selection.

So when the Council of Sages began to discuss whether or not to deprive Queen Emilia of her qualifications as a selector, he jumped out and said that if the Council of Sages did so, he would directly become an enemy of the kingdom.

After all, everything in the Kingdom of Lukenica was meaningless to him. He only cared about whether he could resurrect his beloved teacher Echidna.

He will do whatever it takes to achieve this, including starting a war.

As for Moyin and Mizhou, the only strategy he can adopt is to hide, and then find a way to secretly slay the dragon. This is his only chance of winning.

Of course, he is not qualified to face Moyin and Mizhou, but to ordinary people, he is considered to be very strong.

Even the Council of Sages dare not ignore his will.

"If you want to be an enemy of the kingdom, you will have to fight the Sword Saint Reinhard. Are you sure you want to do this?"

The members of the Council of Sages brought out Reinhard, the swordsman recognized as the strongest in the kingdom.

"Haha, I admit that Reinhard is very strong, but he is just a swordsman after all. I can launch continuous high-intensity magic bombardment on the kingdom from an area 100 kilometers away. Reinhard's sword can certainly withstand my magic, but in this case he will have to stay in the kingdom to defend against my attack and will not be able to kill me."

"Once he leaves the kingdom to kill me, the capital of the Kingdom of Luknica will be reduced to ruins. Do you think it's worth it for the chance to be a candidate for the king's election?"

Roswaal asked with a sneer.

"Why do you want to let Queen Emilia participate in the royal election? Your current behavior constitutes treason."

The members of the Sages' Council began to scold.

"Because the Sages Council you manage now makes me feel that you don't take me, the Border Lord of Roswaal, seriously at all, and don't respect my will. Such a kingdom is not worthy of my loyalty."

Roswaal said without hesitation.

Of course he couldn't say that he let Emilia participate in the royal election in order to slay the dragon, so he could only use the nobles' good reputation as a shield.

"Why are you doing this? We can respect your will as much as possible in other aspects, but if the new king is half-elf and the elves are allowed to enter the Kingdom of Luknica, then we will be taken over by others."

The members of the Sages' Association said this with embarrassment.

"I don't intend to believe what you, the Sages, say. My request is that Emilia must participate in the royal election as a candidate for the throne."

"This...are you so confident that she will become king?"

The members of the Sage Council asked doubtfully.

"That doesn't matter. Whether she can become the king depends on her own ability. All I ask is that she participate in the king election as a candidate for the king. I guarantee that she has the qualifications."

Roswaal began to explain.

"Please give us some time to discuss this."

"Okay, everyone please, I'll be back in half an hour."

After saying that, Roswaal turned and walked out of the meeting room of the Council of Sages. The members of the Council of Sages immediately started a quick discussion.

"Border Earl Roswaal has really gone too far this time. He actually openly threatened our Council of Sages!"

A member of the Society of Sages said angrily.

"But this time it was indeed our fault. We discussed abandoning the candidate for the royal election he supported without even telling him. The nobles are all very proud..."

Another member of the Society of Sages spoke up to help Roswaal.

"We must discuss this kind of thing before informing him! Wouldn't it be really rude if we didn't discuss it internally before telling him?"

"Stop arguing! The Border Earl of Roswaal is very powerful. If we don't agree to his proposal this time, he will most likely become an enemy of our Luknica Kingdom. Once the situation becomes like that, it will be a big trouble. We can't rule out the possibility that he will defect to the enemy country. Once he does, it will be a huge blow to us."

"Indeed, although we have reliable knights such as Sword Saint Reinhard, if Border Marquis Roswaal and the enemy country launch a multi-point and multi-faceted attack, I am afraid Reinhard will not be able to take care of all the aspects. In addition, we do not have a king yet. Once we enter a situation of internal and external troubles, it will be a huge test for the Kingdom of Luknica."

"Besides, all he asked for was to guarantee Emilia's eligibility to be the king candidate. He didn't want her to be crowned king. As long as we can ensure that other king candidates can defeat Emilia, that will be enough."

"At this stage, the king-elect Emilia has already left the Kingdom of Lukenica. She probably doesn't have much ability to promote herself to gain more support. There is still some time before the king-elect. We can even arrange for other candidates to give speeches in her territory."

"Indeed, merely retaining the qualification is merely maintaining the status quo, and things will not get worse."

The members of the Sages' Society started discussing the matter.

Half an hour later, Roswaal walked into the conference room again.

"If you only want to retain the eligibility of the king candidate Emilia... we can accept it, but you must promise to accept the final eligibility of the king, and not use similar means to threaten us again after Emilia loses the election."

The members of the Sages' Council asked for it.

"I can totally accept this condition. Please rest assured, I will also be nearby to watch over Lady Emilia during the King's Selection. If I make excessive demands, Sword Saint Reinhard can easily kill me. At a certain distance, I am no match for him, right?"

Roswaal said with a smile.

As long as Emilia can successfully participate in the royal election, his goal will be achieved.

Whether Emilia can become the king has nothing to do with him. After all, she is just a chess piece for him to lure out the dragon.

So he immediately agreed to the request made by the wise man.

Having reached a consensus, Roswaal and the members of the Council of Sages ended the meeting with satisfaction.

For the Council of Sages, it is just to maintain Emilia's status as the king election, and they will arrange for other candidates to slowly erode Emilia's territory before the king election begins, so as to ensure that Emilia will not become the king of the Kingdom of Lukenica.

As for Roswaal, Emilia continued to play a necessary role as his chess piece, so it was a happy outcome for everyone... well, except for Emilia.

…………

"Ms. Mi Zhou, in order to get the help of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce to sell the goods, I promised to introduce her. Are you interested in meeting her?"

Emilia asked.

The slum camp she established could not have been built without the assistance of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, even if the elves hunted down the monsters in the forest and took away the magic cores, they would not be able to sell the magic cores quickly to obtain funds.

The Lukenica Kingdom's consumption of magic cores is also limited. Once they hunt too many magic cores and cannot sell them, they have to lower the price if they want to sell them, which eventually creates a vicious cycle of lower and lower prices.

But the Hexin Chamber of Commerce founded by Anastasia Hexin is different.

The Hexin Chamber of Commerce has a large number of caravans that can take magic cores to other areas for sale, ultimately fetching the highest price.

If she had not cooperated with Anastasia, the Hexin Chamber of Commerce could have simply not made a purchase for the time being and waited for them to gradually lower the price.

After all, the Hexin Chamber of Commerce can afford to wait, but the people in the slums cannot.

So in the end Emilia compromised with Anastasia Hesin and agreed to introduce her to Mi Zhou and Mo Yin.

"Hey, you want to see me or Moyin, that greedy loli hasn't given up yet."

Mi Zhou said lazily.

Although Ram and Rem on the side wanted to complain that Mi Zhou was also a loli, after all, Mi Zhou was the eldest lady they served, so the two of them did not speak to expose Mi Zhou's status.

"Yes, I owe a favor to the Hexin Guild in the magic core industry. Although it is too much to ask Miss Mi Zhou to repay this favor for me, I would like to ask you to do me this favor."

Emilia bowed to Mi Zhou earnestly. She was so sincere in doing things. She would not use sweet words to deceive Mi Zhou, but would just reveal her cards from the beginning.

"Don't be so serious. We are friends. We just want to see each other again. Let her prepare some snacks and notify me to come over."

Mi Zhou started talking.

"Okay, then I'll send someone to notify her."

Emilia said happily.

"Okay~ Speaking of which, don't you elves have anything fun?"

Mi Zhou asked curiously.

"Okay... something fun... I'm very sorry, the elves are actually a serious race and have not developed that kind of entertainment..."

Emilia was stumped by Mi Zhou's question and answered with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Um, you can't even sing?"

"I can sing."
