C201 I Don't Think so
Before she could get a chance to talk to Falz III, she had to leave. The latter was supposed to give a speech to encourage the people, but it was interrupted.
Not to mention the pressure that disappeared with the departure of the girl in less than a minute. It had caused a huge uproar in Westfalen.
The venue was the main hall of Brandenburg City Palace, and it was the second day.
"Hilbert Qing."
In the empty hall, Falz III was lying on the throne, his eyes glancing at the smooth marble floor.
"Your Majesty, I am here."
David Hilbert slightly lowered his head and took a step forward. His bald head reflected the sunlight from the window outside, making him look very dazzling.
"Hilbert, if you were to fight the person from yesterday, how much of a chance do you have?"
"Even if I want to resist that aura, I will need to expend a certain amount of effort. I can't defeat her. "
"Is that so..."
Falz III stood rooted to the spot, his expression did not change. Only his mouth was moving from head to toe.
"Then, do you think if Sir Ensco fought with her, would he be able to win?"
The bald magician thought for a moment and decided to speak the truth.
"... " I don't think so, Your Majesty."
"You know, because of yesterday's incident, many of the original pro-war factions in the country protested against me."
"I understand." Hilbert was expressionless.
To put it bluntly, those Titled Devil Instructor nobles were able to enter and exit the capital of Westfalen as they pleased. Furthermore, they were greatly shocked by the fact that they could do whatever they wanted in the center of the city. As a result, they felt threatened by their own safety and began to question the power of the country's Magic Conducting Power.
However... Hilbert was very clear that this wasn't something strange at all.
If Lord of Thunder and Clark Edinberg wanted to, they could just fly to Brandenburg and break down the numbers of the city bell tower and place it on the big bell. They would not encounter any obstacles during this period of time. Ensco, who was at the same level as him, could not predict his actions. The only one guarding the Brandenburg was Ensco. Hilbert himself was only a Level Six. No matter what kind of tricks he used, it was impossible to make an Eighth Grade Titled Devil Instructor flip over on the spot.
Although he had not left the Britain for hundreds of years, theoretically speaking, the only thing that prevented Edinburgh from causing trouble was that if he slipped out and returned, he might find out that Big Ben had been dismantled by Roentgen.
So this was unavoidable.
However, after Hilbert explained this to Falz III, the young king closed his eyes. He did not want to look directly at the shining head of the former and fell into deep thought.
Finally, he closed his eyes and knocked on the armrest of the throne.
"I understand."
Hilbert heaved a sigh of relief.
But Falz III's next sentence made him angry again.
"But you still have to help me."
... "At your service, Your Majesty."
"I have already sealed off the real news, so I hope you can go out and make a statement... This mage's strength is below yours. She escaped because she sensed your approach."
"This... isn't appropriate, right?"
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. I've decided, gather all the forces I can and start a decisive battle. The enemy is the defender, so they can only send out a portion of their fleet and forces to deal with them. We will have a numerical advantage. As for you, you just need to stabilize the opposition within the country for a period of time. When the glory of victory covers the earth, all opposition will vanish into thin air."
" Then... what if she stands on the enemy's side and takes part in the war? How should we deal with her? " Hilbert asked.
" Do you know? The moment I fell off the windowsill and looked at her, I could see from her eyes... that she should never appear in the fear, fear, and weakness of a powerhouse of this level. At that moment, I knew that this person might really possess the power to destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth. But she would never dare to make a move. No matter how powerful the power was, as long as it couldn't be used... It's no different than not existing."
Falz III replied calmly.
"This kind of weak person... is just like my useless father. He won't be able to do anything."
A similar scene happened in Brucedahl, which was hundreds of kilometers away.
Vilhelmina sat on the main seat, and Almande Janssen stood beside her.
Riko Hasegawa lowered her head, bowed, and apologized in a low voice.
"... " I'm sorry. "
She didn't know why she felt guilty. Was it because she couldn't convince Falz III to withdraw from the war? Or... she could have changed so many things, but she couldn't do anything about it?
Janssen stood quietly and didn't say anything.
"I forgive you, raise your head."
Vilhelmina said.
Riko obeyed and raised her head.
The face of the little queen, who had just held power for a year, did not match her age. The silver-haired girl did not see the usual gentle smile on her face. However... She did not see any expression of disappointment or fear on her face.
"I have received the information that since yesterday, the airship fleet of Westfalen has begun to gather at the airship port of Frankfurt. Now, almost every combat airship with some fighting ability has gathered there... Similarly, the enemy troops and Titled Devil Instructor who were fighting at the front line of Gaul also left the battlefield in the dark. They were nowhere to be found. All signs indicated that they were planning an unprecedented counterattack."
"Gaul is unable to provide us with more support. Britain will send an airship fleet and a few Titled Devil Instructor warriors to assist us in the battle. If everything goes according to plan, this will be the decisive battle that will decide the outcome of this war. If we win, we will destroy the last force of Westfalen. We will force them to negotiate. If we lose... then we will have to face the situation of the front line being broken through once again. "
" We don't know about the ground forces yet, on the airship fleet, we should only be at a slight disadvantage. However, Sir Edinburgh cannot leave London, and there are no Titled Devil Instructor warriors in Aldran who can fight Sage Analysis Planck... "
Vilhelmina paused for a moment, stood up from her seat, and walked in front of Riko Hasegawa.
In front of the silver-haired girl's sky-blue eyes, she used her height advantage to look down from above.
"Other than you."
