Chapter 921: Thirteen. Weakness and Strength (2)

Looking back afterwards, the fortune teller was full of suspiciousness from appearance to disappearance, but at that time there was no spare time to think and doubt.
A drowning person must grab even a straw, and an extremely thirsty person will drink it even if he knows that there is a glass of poisonous wine in his hand. One hope in the desperate situation is that he has such a deadly temptation, which will even make people temporarily. Forget fear and vigilance.
Therefore, at that time, it was so easy to plunge into the traps elaborately designed by others.
##########
Upon learning of the demise of the First Guerrilla Force, Minerva did not show any surprise or disappointment, and there was not much to say in the already admired Admiralty building. Everyone's face was just a calm and serene relief.
From the beginning, everyone knew it would be the result. In addition to the quantitative advantage, the Charlemagne family's navy did not have the same advantage. Under the circumstances of huge technological generation and unilateral transparency of battlefield information, the behind party will not have even a slight chance of victory. Sending the first guerrilla troops to attack was simply sending them to death.
But why do you know if you are going to die, or have you formulated and adopted a non-obtrusive "short battle"? In the final analysis, this is a straight line thinking of "I work very hard, but I don't know that my efforts will not bear fruit, but I still work very hard". In the words of Wang Jiajun’s own words,
in the event of a
Jie combat
failure, it is possible to die, but if you do not execute a
Jie combat
, you will definitely die. If you die without fighting, you will lose your soul, even if you fight until the last soldier’s death. In a dying country, our children and grandchildren will certainly inherit our spirit and rise up again."
- To put it bluntly, you can break the mountains and rivers, but not the battleships. This involves national dignity and political correctness, and no one can tolerate it.
Now that the soul of the warship has returned to the sea, who can say anything?
Minerva can only accept the facts frankly. In the face of the naval loss, the crown prince's influence has been further strengthened, and it may even establish the future of the "sea-lord-slave" military-state system.
Minerva is not greedy for power. From the beginning, her goals have been limited to self-preservation and the protection of the royal family and the country. However, there are the crown prince with the onset of the big head syndrome and the raging army, and the outside is staring at Alfheim. In this environment, she and her younger brother were not eaten and wiped out by the Navy, the "901st Anti-Chariot Hunter Unit", and the "Legend of the Saint Girl". With the few hole cards Minervachan can make the brother who is full of crazy thoughts have some scruples. Now that perhaps the most important pillar has fallen, she must consolidate the remaining help.
The question is, can Roland now take on such a heavy responsibility?
Thinking of Roland's loss of spirit, Minerva subconsciously clasped her arms to resist the cold that oozed from deep inside her body.
She did not deny that she had a good opinion of Roland, and it was easy to admit it. Now she is increasingly doubting whether she can really face feelings. To put it more bluntly, Minerva questioned whether he could match the word "love".
From the beginning, her engagement with Roland was based on the political arrangements made by the exchange of interests between the royal family and the consortium. In this regard, she did not have much doubt. As the daughter of the Wang family, enjoying Jinyiyushi, living in a respectful manner, naturally has the consciousness of becoming someone's "good wife" for the royal family and the country at the right time. After contacting Roland, she had new hope. There are actually men who recognize that women are active in various fields and even support this kind of behavior. I have to say that this is very important for Minerva who has always felt the inconvenience of female identity in the patriarchal society. Appeal. What's more, this man still has excellent knowledge and talents, and the combination with him can also bring great benefits to the isolated younger brother.
After observing and understanding the above facts, Minerva completely accepted the marriage contract with Roland.
If this can be called "love", there are too many self-interest calculation components. Because of this, Minerva has a considerable degree of loyalty to this relationship, and has been spared no effort to promote this relationship. Now, it is even more urgent.
However, the closer to Roland, the more impulsive, accusatory anxiety of something, and the urge to pull everything out of Roland and Pan, the stronger it can't be erased from the brain.
This feeling of being unable to swallow is precisely a sense of guilt.
Thoughts mixed with guilt fell into stalemate.
She knows.
Those who sing praises to the "Holy Girl" and hold the "Holy Girl" as heroes do not care what kind of person this "idol" is and what kind of impression they hold on them. They only care about their own interests and safety, as long as they can keep these, whoever becomes a "hero" is the same. If the bid is right, then the hero will also be used as a bargaining chip in exchange for profits. Historically, there have been many heroes who have been sold for a "good price." An extra "Holy Girl" will not make those people feel uneasy.
She also knows that even if all corrupt officials are replaced, corruption and malfeasance will continue to spread. This has nothing to do with the progress of the system, or whether there is the temptation of the consortium to penetrate, this is pure human nature. As long as you hold power, someone will always succumb to temptation.
She knew all this-but still spared no effort to push Roland to the battlefield, fighting to protect herself and all the dirty and corrupt. She didn't expect that when the truth was revealed, Roland would be hit so hard.
Is it true?
She should have long known that she will face this result. This is not a biography of the brave warriors against the devil in the bard population. In the story, after the brave defeated the demon king, it will usher in a perfect ending for everyone to live a happy life. In reality, there will never be such a good thing. Even if the brave defeated the powerful devil, the forces who supported him before and confirmed him will also try to corrode him, draw him, and use this huge power for their own use. . If it can't be done, before this overly sharp sword hurts itself, noble people will try their best to break him and completely wipe out the heroes they once praised.
-This is the reality.
Isn't Minerva a member of these despicable groups, using his own collar to seduce, manipulate, and use Roland? This kind of self continues to force Roland to go to the battlefield, and then fall in love with him... is it really possible?
Immersed in trouble and restlessness, the body leaning on the carriage trembles involuntarily.
"Dear ladies and ladies, fortune, career, feelings, everything can be fortune-telling, be sure to appreciate it!"
A wave of magnetic shouts came, Minerva unconsciously lifted the curtains, a black man in a black suit surrounded by many women at the corner of the street caught in the eyes of the girl.
###################
"Soothsayer?"
Minerva looked at the man and asked.
A velvet black cloak with gold trim, a feathered hat, layered silk scarves, and a lace-edged shirt.
Wearing luxurious and gorgeous men's clothing, but fortune-telling in the streets, even the noble nobles will not be so. This man, without any violation, solicited and received a client. Judging by the women who left with joyful expressions, this man is probably a who is good at rhetoric.
"It's the fortuneteller below. Even being teased is nothing more than coaxing people to be happy, but divination is hard to learn."
The man said without hindrance. He seemed to be very accustomed to communicating with women. His tongue, appearance, and one-eyed eyes seemed to be devices designed to let people off guard.
Incredibly, this will not cause even a little resentment to the audience.
"Life cannot be sunny forever, and it is inevitable that sometimes the path of progress will be shrouded in fog and people will lose their direction. Having said that, as long as there is a flash of light, people may find the lost path again. Divination is for the lost lamb. A flash of light provides a glimpse of how to choose the future."
I really want to keep listening, this man's voice is so charming.
Minerva temporarily set aside his thoughts of turning around and walking away. Although he still didn't believe in divination or prophecy, some paralyzed thoughts came up with the idea of ​​"it doesn't hurt to listen".
"So, beautiful lady. Let's take a look at the favor of Eros to you, and see how to let your real God respond to your thoughts."
The one-eyed man shuffled his cards skillfully, with elegant and refined movements. After fully shuffling the cards, he spread the cards on the table like a casino dealer and showed a friendly smile to the the opposite side.

"that's it?"
Half-dressed in a long coat, the taro with bare shoulders leaned against the wall, looking at the corner where the carriage disappeared, and said impatiently.
"It's enough. She had a similar idea originally. With a little push, she would think in her own direction."
The bark praying mantis flicked the cloak and turned its right hand, and 12 fan-shaped playing cards appeared out of thin air between fingers.
"It will require the fortune-teller to provide advice, which is a manifestation of inner confusion. As long as you grasp sufficient personal consultation, use guilt and self-blame, and follow the need to suggest her direction, this is enough. Then she will give it to herself Be meaningful, and then put it into practice."
The listening taro grasped his head hard, and the bark mantis talked as if he hadn't noticed it.
"If she is more mature and has a stronger ability to control emotions and ethics, it may hint that it may not work for her. Now Her Highness the Queeness wants to make up for the loss and strives hard~EbookFREE.me~The result will instead I was hurt more. Alas, there are so many examples of this, but there will always be people trapped and incited by others."
"I can't see that you have a little research on the girl's heart. I thought you were only interested in cute boys."
"To be correct, I'm only interested in "similar", otherwise it is not an enemy, a prey, or a collaborator. As for the study of the girl's heart, that is the above topic and achievements. I just pass on the words and cannot use words The fatherly love expressed in words.
"Father's love? If it can be called father's love, then childhood without parents is really happy."
The apple in his hand shattered, and the expression of the taro bug became sinister.
"Where, it's better than cutting off the son's hand and forcing him to the cliff and telling him "I'm your Baba"."
"Where is this ghost father? No, no, come up with the ghost animal director who came up with this kind of setting? Does this ghost animal match the dictator's degree?!"
"who knows?"
The bark praying mantis, who succeeded in the crooked floor, smirked, turned and walked towards the bustling crowd, and in a blink of an eye, he disappeared.
