"Huh--???"

He raised his head and saw that the Majik elder was also sitting opposite him, sitting side by side with the Priest Priest.

And now, Elder Majik looked at himself as if he had seen a ghost, with disbelief and surprise written all over his face! ... No, it was not just surprise. If you analyze it carefully, maybe... inside

A little bit of panic?

Ariel's heart trembled, did she have anything to deserve to be so frightened by the guy who fed her poison?

...Ah, yes, poison! Judging from his expression, shouldn't he have become an idiot long ago?

If this is really the case, then Ariel feels that she should also be surprised. Why can she still speak and think well here?

If we really want to explain it... we can only say that the effect of this poison may be weaker than the great elder imagined.

Thinking of this, Ariel felt a lot relieved. Since the effects of these poisons were somewhat beyond the poisoner's expectation, she should not be in the worst situation, and everything could turn around!

"Ariel, I asked you to come here now, and I hope to thank you properly again. You have solved a serious problem of mine."

Meng Lai slapped his thigh, laughed happily, and continued -

"If it weren't for you, I don't know how long I would have been struggling. During the day, I asked you what compensation you wanted and you said you hadn't thought about it yet. Have you thought about it now? Just say it!"

At this time, should I say that I want the emperor to withdraw the order to abolish the Mermaid Song? And then terminate the order to transfer all the information of myself, all the members of the Mermaid Song, and the Elemental Machine to Hanhai City and put them under the custody of the royal family?

Haha, even if the emperor agrees now, what about the future?

In the past ten years, Ariel feels that she has learned at least one thing, that is, never believe in the promises made to you by those in high positions, because as long as the status of the two parties is unequal, all the promises made by the other party will be in vain.

It's just a promise.

Therefore, even if Ariel does need such a promise, this promise must not be made in such a private environment. Instead, it needs to be more public and when she has more chips, let the emperor make it

Only if you make a promise.

"Your Majesty, I——"

However, just when Ariel was about to speak, a short and urgent sound came from the door of the side hall.

Ariel looked at all the people sitting here. Among them were the elders of the Magic Association, the high priest of the Vatican, the dukes, marquises and counts, and some ministers who usually had a good relationship with the emperor.

The general and his teacher are also sitting in the corner.

However, there was no maid or servant here. After looking around, these people all cast their eyes on Ariel, and everyone looked at Ariel as if it were a matter of course.

she.

Ariel didn't intend to make matters worse here, so she could only get up, walk to the door, and open it.

Outside the door was a waiter, holding a tray with a neat and beautiful envelope placed on it. After taking a look at Ariel, the waiter leaned forward slightly and handed the tray to Ariel's chest.

After Ariel saw the words "Your Majesty" written on it, she nodded and took the envelope. The attendant turned and left. After she closed the door again, she handed the envelope to the emperor who was sitting on the sofa.
