Mystic Dominator

Under nightfall, the banquet continued in the open-air square.

Whether it is [Nikos] as the host, or the Greed people as the guests. Time is passing quickly amid the almost non-stop music and programs.

Just as the party progressed.

Most people who were immersed in the happy atmosphere did not notice that several people had left at the same time.

Not too far away from the banquet venue, a small room has been strictly guarded, and there are spells around it to prohibit eavesdropping and other spying abilities to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

And in this place, an extremely private party has just begun.

Countess Leticia, her prince husband, Ronald and Claudia, as well as the holy priests from the church, a total of five people sat in a circle around the table in this small room.

Among them, Claudia was the first to speak, looking directly at [Nikos]'s prince Mursoni:

"Your Highness Morsoni, you specially invited us guests to come here to talk. You must have something very important to say, right?"

Morsoni is a man who looks to be about thirty years old, with a strong build and a very good mental state. As a prince, he always had a cheerful smile on his face, and his affinity radiated almost from the inside out.

At this moment, as the initiator of the party, Morsoni faced Claudia's question and asked:

"Your Highness Claudia, before the topic officially begins, I would like to ask a question - do you know anything about the former maritime city [Larchmont]?"

"Oh?" Claudia just nodded slightly, and then responded, "I know that it is a city that has been established since the Dark Ages, but unfortunately, it seems to have been destroyed by a disaster hundreds of years ago. , has been almost forgotten today.”

As soon as Claudia finished speaking, she suddenly realized the purpose of the other party mentioning [Larchmont].

"Wait a minute, I remember that city should not be far from [Nikos]."

"Could it be that you discovered its traces?"

"Hahaha! As expected of the princess of Greed, she is indeed quick-thinking and knowledgeable." Mulsoni immediately clapped his hands and praised, "The reason why I want to talk to you in secret is actually because of this.

"

"..."

At the same time, Ronald, who was also here, had a hint of understanding in his eyes.

He had heard a lot of legends about this city before in Capone, and even the books he brought had recorded relevant content, plus the information Luna revealed to him a day ago...

At this moment, Mulsoni informed everyone of the news.

To him, it was just something that should happen, and there was nothing surprising about it.

However, Mulsoni's current confidentiality attitude towards the news made Ronald's mood more complicated. Luna would reveal the news to herself yesterday, and the emotions involved were really difficult to deal with...

Ronald himself was preoccupied with trivial matters and did not join in the conversation, but others did not. Seeing Claudia and Morsoni reveal the purpose of the conversation, Martha, who is now a holy priest, also intervened in the conversation at this time:

"But Mr. Mulsoni, since you have discovered the ruins of [Larchmont], under the current world situation, you should firmly block the news."

"If we hadn't encountered special circumstances, I'm afraid you wouldn't have told us passers-by about this, right?"

"..."

"The priest is right."

After Martha spoke, Morsoni fell silent briefly, with a wry smile on his face.

It was at this time that his wife Leticia spoke on behalf of her husband:

Valley

"Under normal circumstances, this kind of news would naturally be strictly blocked."

"But we [Nikos] are different from Greed. We are not afraid of any country in the world, nor are we afraid of facing any war, and no one around us dares to challenge the behemoth."

"For us, the changes in the world have not only cut off many important connections, but also dealt a terrible blow to our strength as we rely on the canal."

"If you don't think of a way to quickly increase your strength at this time."

"Then what awaits [Nikos] may not be a bright future like the banquet outside."

Although Martha has just become a Holy Priest, she has a good understanding of the surrounding geography. After Leticia spoke, she understood the helplessness and bitterness of the other party just by thinking about it briefly.

[Nikos] is located at the junction of two continents.

Going up, there are countries with more developed civilizations; going down, there are neighbors who are martial and good at war. But [Nikos] himself occupies a canal that can bring huge profits.

In the past, [Nikos] relied on his connections with all over the world, but of course he could still rely on his strength to defend everything.

But in a world like this now...

Just like Leticia said, they may not be able to do what they want after losing so much, and they are always on guard.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room dropped due to the bitterness in Leticia's tone. However, the countess’s husband did not remain depressed, but at this moment he straightened up his chest again:

"So the [Larchmont] that appeared at this time became the fastest option for [Nikos] to increase its strength. However, due to our lack of strength, we currently encounter obstacles in entering the ruins."

At this point, Morsoni stood up suddenly.

This tall man walked around in front of Claudia, then knelt down on one knee and made a request to Her Royal Highness in front of him, which given his status, he should never do to foreigners:

"Your Highness Claudia, we know the strength of all the distinguished guests of Greed, and we have also heard the news that you defeated the wizards who escaped the seal. Compared with our small country and few people, there is a huge gap between the two."

Faced with the prince's extremely humble actions, Claudia suddenly put away her smile, her expression instantly became serious, and at the same time she asked in an unprecedented cold tone:

"Your Highness Morsoni, are you planning to ask for help from us?"

Morsoni lowered his head to Claudia and continued without hesitation:

"Your Highness Claudia, [Nichos] has always been on good terms with [Gred], and I hope to maintain such a relationship in the future!"

Leticia also came over and bowed her head to Claudia:

"Your Highness, please"

"..."

After the couple finished speaking, Claudia's expression was as cold as before.

But as time passed little by little, the princess' eyes finally softened:

"Okay, I know the general situation, but the discussion ends here tonight."

"Tomorrow morning, you will send someone to the ship at the port, and we will continue talking then."

After saying this, Claudia stood up from her chair.

Then he took Martha and Ronald and left the house:

"Ronald, Martha, let's go, everyone at the banquet is still waiting for us to go back."
