Can't I develop my own character?

Does he have Anti-Demon Attack?

"Wait, isn't it because of this thing?"

Ryan glanced at the number 6 on the back of his right hand. After it was first printed on it, only he could see it.

Theoretically, the Mark of Desire could indeed increase others' favorability towards him. Even a Blood Knight like 'Charlie' took the initiative to apply it, so the effect must be huge.

I guess, after hitting it, you should have 20 points of charm, right?

Speaking of which, during the previous imperial meeting, Kasradi didn't hate him at all, and that woman Heinuo would glance at him from time to time. Although Ryan knew that he was indeed a handsome guy, a great wizard like Heinuo still had a strong willpower.

Hmm, maybe? After all, the other person also has the power of desire in his body. The scene of spraying the Rainbow Bridge is particularly vivid in my memory.

"Damn, I almost forgot about this thing." Ryan sighed. It seemed that no matter how careful he was, he was still targeted by desire.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"It's okay... There's something, um, Grand Duke. I transferred Ina to Baron."

"Oh why?"

"My identity has been exposed, so I need to find someone to replace me here. Although Ina has worked for me before, she was just a secretary after all. There is no one else available in Weine right now, so it won't be difficult for Ina to be reused with her abilities."

"But if we get discovered, won't that be the end of us?"

"No, Ina will protect herself. Besides, being a mole is inherently a dangerous job. No one is more suitable than her. Everything is for the Grand Duke."

Magna said no more.

After all, she didn't care much about 'Ina' in the first place. Now that Ryan is back, what else does she need 'Ina' for?

Moreover, if the insider's work can really be successful, it will also be beneficial to her.

More importantly, Ryan definitely values ​​'Ina' more than she does. Since Ryan says it's okay, why should she think so much?

It’s better to think about her becoming the empress after unifying the prairie!

......

After talking with the Grand Duke, Ryan left the camp. In order to verify the effect of the "Seal of Lust", he specially found a few girls on the road to chat up. As a result, every time he hit on a girl, she would say she was the right girl. After just a few words, the other party expressed her willingness to go to the bar together to deepen the communication, and she even didn't want to go home after that.

Although Ryan has become very famous in the imperial capital recently, few people actually know him. More than 90% of people only know Ryan's name and have no idea what he looks like.

Therefore, the conclusion is that handsomeness certainly plays a certain role, but the seal of lust does play a big role as well. However, this thing has much less impact on extraordinary people. As for the Grand Duke, a seventh-level extraordinary person should have basically no impact as long as he has subjective awareness and precautions. The main reason why the Grand Duke can get close to her is that she trusts Ryan.

This unconscious trend is like falling in love over time. If it continues, it won’t be long before we pick up the Duke and sprint away, right?

"Md, it's all the God of Desire's fault!"

I am such a pure person, no matter how I think about it, it must be the fault of the God of Desire.

After a walk around, 'Weine' also found Jonathan and talked about the Fire Covenant.

Lao Qiao was very firm in his idea that Zhuhuo could not be put under the direct control of the royal family, and that Zhuhuo should always be focused on maintaining the stability of the empire.

After a generous exposition of the purpose of the Fire Covenant, Old Joe revealed his true intentions and proposed the idea of ​​handing over the Fire Covenant to Ryan.

"Don't worry, the Fire-Seeking Covenant will never become an accomplice to Maganna's rebellion!" Jonathan said with certainty, "And I only need to use the name of High Lord Ryan. I don't trust the Fire-Seeking Covenant to be under anyone else's name except him."

'Vene' took a sip of black tea and said lightly: "Sir Jonathan trusts Ryan very much."

"Yes, at least on this point, I believe my judgment. Ryan truly cares about the people of the Empire."

"But he is Maganna's man after all. Even if you say so, what can you do when that day comes?"

Jonathan was silent.

Guaranteeing this thing is just a subjective factor.

"If that day ever comes, I will fight for His Majesty with all my might, and I will be the one to end Ryan's life."

"You don't have to be so extreme," said 'Vine' calmly. "You can ask me to hand over Chaser to Ryan, but I need your loyalty. In the meantime, you will continue to serve as the leader of Chaser. I'll feel at ease with you there."

"This..." Jonathan hesitated. "Your Highness, to be honest, my situation is somewhat unique. I'm not even sure how long I can live. I'm afraid that one day I'll betray myself."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I've been targeted by the Blood God."

...

"That's what love is."

In front of the screen, Ryan watched Jonathan's explanation, and then he understood why there were two powers in his body at the same time.

Jonathan is a Son of the Sun, that's right, he even reached the level of a seventh-order transcendent at one point, and it was he who created the Fire Chaser with the goal of protecting the empire.

But later, one day the old emperor took him into the crack of the other world under the palace, and terrible things happened there. In order to save the old emperor, Jonathan was corroded by the power of the Blood God.

This is also the reason why the old emperor has always trusted Jonathan so much.

In fact, this erosion is more like the 'power chosen by God'. The Blood God did not kill him, but wanted to transform him into a believer in the Blood God, from a human being into a 'great demon'.

Simply put, it is to upgrade the demon.

But Old Joe didn't want to. He wanted to continue being the Son of the Sun and didn't want to become a demon.

With his violent temper, he would not change once he made up his mind. So in order to suppress the power of the Blood God erupting in his body, he used most of his strength to seal it, turning himself from a seventh-level warrior into a third-level warrior.

At the same time, in order to prevent the Blood God's power from erupting out of control one day, Jonathan gave up his identity as the leader of the Fire Chaser, chose to guard the border for the empire, and ran to the city of Berman.

Ryan felt that Old Joe was the real protagonist, his experience even more bizarre than his.

According to Lao Qiao, he didn't want to stay in the imperial capital, but 'Weinei' promised not to let him use this power. If he really had to, he also had the option to leave.

"Your Highness, why do you want to keep me here?" Jonathan said helplessly.

"Just as you trust your own vision, so do I." 'Vine' chuckled. "I trust you as much as you trust Ryan. I'm confident that you will lead the Fire Covenant."

Old Joe is very capable, but more importantly, he is not conservative or pedantic, which is what Ryan values ​​most.

What the hell is this flexible moral bottom line?

If you just want to protect everyone, you will end up not being able to protect anything.

In this regard, Old Joe actually has similar ideas to him.

"Old Joe, I have no choice. We don't have enough talent. I'll buy you a pack of cigarettes later." Ryan said a few words of silence to Jonathan. After all, he was not required to work from nine to nine. This job was better than being the captain of the administrative department, right?

After much persuasion, Lao Qiao finally agreed to "Weinei's" conditions.

"Speaking of which, it's better not to go into that crack underground easily."

After hearing what Old Joe said, that other world is very dangerous. Fortunately, nothing has happened there for so many years, so it shouldn't be a big problem if we just leave it alone.

After dealing with Old Joe, Ryan switched to Nosia's interface. At this time, the sixth wife had successfully reached level ten.

Good equipment will naturally upgrade quickly, and she has been promoted by 'Vine' to the castle as a Royal Guard, temporarily serving as 'Vine's' close bodyguard. Later, 'Vine' will rebuild the imperial army, and people like 'Nosia' will definitely serve as the legion commander and eventually join the High Lord.

Military power is of utmost importance. With her and 'Charlie' around, the imperial army won't have to worry anymore.

As for Karkat, Ryan just left it alone to see who could not hold back first.

Ryan didn't intend to recruit people again by promising benefits. If he wanted to gain something in his hands, he would demand benefits in exchange for loyalty. The "loyal ministers" recruited by this method were not loyal enough.

If Karkat had returned to return the military power immediately, even if he did not swear allegiance, Ryan would have looked at him with more respect and might even have reused him.

Now, haha~

You continue to carry the 200,000 people with you, and see what you will do when the food is eaten up!

rebel?

But someone has to follow.

"Let me see... the Soul Eater's certificate, OK~"

Direct job transfer at level 10.

In the picture, Norsia returned to the castle room, her long brown hair spread softly behind her head, her emerald green eyes sparkled, and she was wearing silver armor, looking very heroic.

[Do you want to change your job to Soul Eater? ]

【Yes. 】

The power of death began to spread, and the cold black mist was like the souls of the dead lingering over the River Styx. As Norsia bathed in the black mist, her entire temperament also quietly changed.

"Not bad."

Ryan looked at the changes in his portrait after the job change - he was wearing a black slim-fitting suit and a black windbreaker. The hem of the windbreaker looked broken as if it had been burned. The black mist lingering around him occasionally turned into the shape of a soul and floated around Norsia.

I didn't expect it to look so cool.

[Congratulations on your successful job change to Soul Eater.]

[Professional Talent]

[Swallowing: The Soul Eater can assimilate and absorb energy of different attributes. The effect is related to the strength of magic power.]

[Professional Exclusive]

[Swallowing Extreme Lv1: Soul Eater releases swallowed energy, increasing damage and health by 10%, while reducing damage received by 10%.]

[Swallowing·Defending lv1: Soul Eater can transform the target's attack, reducing the damage received by 10%.]

【Professional Attribute Growth】

【Constitution: ★★★★☆】

Spirit: ★★★☆

【Magic Power: ★★★★☆】

"Not bad, who said the Soul Eater class is trash? If you train at this level, wouldn't it be stronger than a city wall?"

This profession specializes in defense. When the level is higher, you can also learn a rebound skill to rebound the opponent's damage.

The disadvantage is that the attribute growth is not very high, but as long as there are enough relics, the attributes can still be easily stacked up, as long as the skills are strong enough.

"Nosia, don't worry. Although you are not a hidden profession, your identity as the sixth wife will not change."

Ryan said happily, letting Nosia continue to hang up, and then switched to the character interface of 'Xali'.

At this time, the second wife was leading the Holy Blood Legion to attack, and the army of the Northern Alliance had already come to attack. This battle was destined to be a river of blood.

Second update! I posted a little early today. I'm starving and haven't eaten yet. I'll eat and continue writing. Please give me a monthly ticket! Please support me! !

Chapter 118 Ryan: Queen? She's just a humming girl with her pouty face!

Kingdom of Lot.

On the plain ten kilometers east of Silvermoon City.

In the temporary meeting room at the Northern United Army’s base.

"...These are the instructions from His Majesty. Defeat the Lot army within one day, surround Silvermoon City, and capture that person named Xia Li alive."

A middle-aged officer with a stern appearance looked around and said.

"What about Amabena?"

"If she dares to resist, just kill her. She's not important. That guy is so destitute that he's being hunted down and killed by his own ministers. No one in this country cares about the life or death of a useless king."

"Why does His Majesty Elvian care so much about Xia Li? Is she more important than King Amabena?"

"We only need to complete His Majesty's instructions," said the middle-aged officer Kosor, a fifth-rank Moonlight Knight and the commander of the joint forces. "But everyone must be careful. There's something strange about the Lot Kingdom's army. Although they're small in number, their combat power is formidable. Frank's army of over 30,000 men was defeated by that Charlie."

A noble laughed and said, "The ragtag army Frank has under his command isn't even fully equipped. Of the 50,000 or so, only half are new recruits. Of the remaining 5,000, no more than 5,000 are capable of actual combat."

They had reasons to be confident. Of the 30,000 UN troops, although Wildea had only 3,000, the rest were legitimate kingdom troops, which were very different from the private armies of the nobles.

Moreover, this time both the equipment and food supplies are sufficient, and after several days of stationing and resting, they are in perfect condition to be ready for battle no matter how you look at it.

What about the other party?

According to the latest information, there will be no more than 5,000 people, which means they have a 6:1 advantage in numbers. Even if they really cannot defeat them in a one-on-one fight, they can always win in a group fight, right?

In essence, the Northern Union now basically belongs to a "big family", headed by Wildea, and the Speaker of Parliament Elvian is the real king. Those disobedient and unsociable guys have either been liquidated or are about to be liquidated.

This wasn't the first time they had fought this kind of battle.

According to the plan, once the Kingdom of Lot is taken, the Northern United Nations will be officially renamed the Wildea Federation, becoming another giant in the northern continent.

By that time, the continental struggle with the Augustus Empire had truly begun.
