The protagonist is always seen

The war with the temple lasted for three years.

Beatrice's position is already very stable, and she is indeed extremely capable. Under her rule, the treasury has gradually filled up, and the army is also very strong. Although they are still in a stalemate with the temple, they seem to have acquiesced to Beatrice. The regime now looks more like a war between two countries.

Wars between countries should always be more cautious. No one can bear the long-term battle. The two sides unanimously stopped the unnecessary war and started to guard the border instead.

Now that conflicts have become less and less, Ariel and the others don't have to stay on the front line all the time, so they return to the capital one after another. Ariel and Caesar are the first to return to the capital.

Vaum and Andrew are still on the border, and it will take some time for them to come back. What Caesar is good at is not in the military, and his home field has always been the capital.

Ariel felt a little tired, but he hated troublesome things very much. Those close to him knew that Ariel liked to be lazy, so he didn't say anything.

During this period of regime change, many outstanding young people emerged.

Beatrice didn't care about her origin and blood, those young people with very means saw the opportunity, and they were ambitious to break out of the world.

They are very active in the capital, going to various occasions, socializing and entertaining, seizing every opportunity to achieve their goals.

Beatrice is also willing to provide them with a platform. She always holds various banquets, and the invitees are not only nobles. She deliberately does not use the title of baron as a threshold. After all, a noble with a baron title is not as powerful as a businessman. Not something uncommon.

The latter is clearly more valuable to Beatrice.

The boundaries of the nobility became blurred for a while, and people called those who had the ability to frequent the queen's banquets "upstarts".

The Queen's Banquet is also very famous, and if anyone has been to the Queen's Banquet, most of the time it makes for a good conversation piece.

Tonight, a banquet is being held in the palace, as gorgeous and grand as ever.

Halfway through the banquet, the band was playing a soothing piece of music.

Ariel leaned on the sofa in the corner a little tiredly, closed his eyes, looking a little tired.

The light here is very dark, and on the coffee table in front of Ariel, the red wine that has been taken since the beginning of the banquet has not been touched.

He was wearing an army uniform—dresses were designed for the occasion, and after all there would always be a few wayward guests who were impatient with matching clothes to the Queen's banquet, which was the norm.

He's been here since the beginning of the banquet, Ariel is not keen on the banquet, he's here because Beatrice wants him to make more friends.

No matter what time it is, Ariel's communication is always very worrying.

And at the queen's banquet, everyone cheered up, only Ariel stayed in the corner.

He thought he was inconspicuous, but in fact, as long as someone at the banquet noticed him, he would never be inconspicuous. News always passes quickly in such a place where there are so many people.

Even though Ariel has never officially appeared in the royal capital's social circle, many people have never seen him, but his appearance can easily make people associate with the current Queen, and Ariel's uniform , His identity is almost ready to be revealed.

So, almost at the beginning of the banquet, the news that the prince was staying in the corner spread throughout the banquet. Ariel didn't want to socialize, so he hid in the corner, so naturally no one would disturb him unwisely.

But secretly "inadvertently" looking at them, the number is terrifying.

Even if he stays in the shadows, everyone's eyes still follow him.

Ariel lay there, feeling that the sofa beside him was sunken, he opened one eye, tilted his head, and Caesar sat beside him.

Ariel laughed when he saw him, tilted his body, and buried his hairy head in the socket of his neck.

Make a muffled sound.

"Let me lean on."

"Did you party all night?"

Caesar inserted his hand into his hair, and after finding that the hand felt very good, he played with Ariel's hair endlessly.

Ariel didn't respond to him, and he didn't care, just said casually.

"The queen has been in a good mood recently, and her blonde lover is getting more and more favored."

"Ah."

Caesar sighed.

"Don't be so careless, Ariel."

The human heart is a very wonderful thing, nothing is eternal, not even the love of a mother for her child.

Time will wear away little by little.

Caesar hugged Ariel, raised his head, met countless eyes that turned away, then put his chin on Ariel's shoulder, and said softly.

"The queen has been in a good mood recently because she seems to be pregnant and about to give birth, in this stable period where she doesn't have to plan anything."

Ariel didn't react, not even his breathing changed.

Caesar continued.

"This kid is highly anticipated."

Unlike Ariel's accident, this was a child born with everyone's expectations and blessings. Beatrice didn't have to send him to Ailuo City, and his biological father was also by his side, and he was very outstanding, with a decent status and Outstanding ability.

Caesar doesn't question Beatrice's affection for Ariel.

Even though Ariel didn't grow up around Beatrice, he has the same black hair and red lips as Beatrice, not to mention his own beautiful complexion, which even attracted a famous bard love compliments.

Beatrice is a very complicated and easy-to-understand person. She loves beautiful things, and Ariel is not only in line with this, but also her child. It is no surprise that she dotes on Ariel.

But love has a very repulsive quality, it is selfish and quantitative.

Parents usually prefer younger children who are more talkative, some prefer boys, others only want girls.

No matter how high-sounding what they say, as long as their children are not the same, preference will exist.

This kind of preference will be magnified among the nobles, not only this kind of preference, but also any human evil thoughts will be magnified in the king's capital.

Among princes or princesses, this kind of preference is very fatal. The previous king relied on his father's favor to inherit the throne over his two older brothers and one older sister.

Caesar was guessing Ariel's reaction almost when he received the news of Beatrice's pregnancy. He planned several plans for Ariel in his mind, some with a cycle of several months, and some with a period of decades.

But when he saw Ariel, Caesar felt that everything might be useless, he had no interest in these at all, he was different from Caesar, he was disinterested and tired of these.

Ariel reacted to Caesar's words this time, he raised his head from Caesar's neck, and spoke in an affirmative tone in his ear.

"I'm also looking forward to it."

His breath reached Caesar's ears, it was warm and itchy.

Then Ariel continued to press the weight of his body on Caesar, and said softly.

"Hug me, Caesar."

Ariel likes the feeling of being hugged, which makes people feel very at ease, and allows him to stay away from those troubles for a short time, and sleep well for a while, just like being loved, he likes being loved.

Caesar wrapped his arms around Ariel's waist, his waist was so thin, he was able to wrap it around easily.

He hugged Ariel like hugging a bouquet of roses.

Caesar could imagine that after tonight, rumors about Ariel and his sex would spread throughout the capital, and all kinds of ambiguous or obscene or sentimental or sadomasochistic stories would spread from the mouths of the subjects.

The indifferent prince with unparalleled looks and courtiers with clever words, this is more interesting than the queen's scandalous rumors, they always like this, they will care about the private life of those in power when they don't have to worry about being hungry.

This will cause some trouble to them, Caesar thought, and hugged Ariel tightly.

Waum stood on the back of the dragon, and slowly withdrew his sword.

His face was splattered with blood for some unknown reason, and it had already solidified into a few spots of dark red.

Long roared lowly, a little restless.

Waum frowned, looking thoughtfully at the deformed creature that fell on the ground.

These days, it is not the temple that frequently attacks soldiers, but some strange species, and Waum can find the shadows of some familiar creatures in them.

For example, the black-backed monkey was always docile and didn't like to fight, but now it has grown long fangs, scarlet eyes, and arched back. When it sees humans, it not only doesn't hide, but also takes the initiative to attack.

Waum felt a little uneasy instinctively. These days, he became more and more anxious, as if something was quietly waking up.

"Close the team!"

In the abyss, outside the magic city, more and more monsters and degenerate races gather here. These years they have been fighting in the abyss, and the little guys from different forces and factions almost want to bite when they meet.

At this time, they all stayed together quietly, whispering.

"Be quiet idiot, the door is about to open."

"This smell is right, the king is about to wake up."

"When the king wakes up, I will go to the ground through the door. After so many years, I have forgotten the smell of fresh flesh and blood."

"Idiot, be honest and save your life. The king slept for so long and couldn't find enough sacrifices. We are not the ones who are unlucky."

"Go catch some priests in the temple."

"No, no, it's better to spend some effort to catch a few celestial clans. Make sure the king is full and clean. I don't want to be eaten."

In the temple, the Holy Son took off his armor, lowered his head, and accepted the bishop's purification.

The bishop is pouring holy water on the Son.

"Son, everything you do is for the Lamb of God. You are an excellent shepherd. The Lord will see your sincerity."

As soon as the voice fell, a person ran over in a panic from outside.

"My lord, my lord!"

He knelt beside the bishop and said in panic.

"My lord! The magic energy is overflowing, and those monsters in the forest have been affected, what should we do!"

The Bishop put his finger on his forehead.

"Calm down, don't be afraid, we have made a lot of preparations for this day, the Lord will bless us and guide us forward."

The Son raised his head, his eyes were blue and bright.

Even though there were many scars under his body without the armor, he was still full of fighting spirit.

"I promise you with the sword in my hand that I will take the head of the Lord of the Abyss."

The Templars behind him knelt on one knee together and said in unison.

"In the name of the sword, I swear."

In Wangdu, Beatrice has already given birth.

She got a little prince whose father was the fair-haired lover.

Ariel went to see it a few times, and he touched the baby's face very carefully, feeling very strange. He stared at the baby, looking very focused.

When Beatrice questioned him, he replied.

"It's kind of ugly."

Ariel said truthfully, but soon he turned around and looked at the little wrinkled baby intently, anyone could see that he didn't hate this child.

Ariel has already passed the age where he would be jealous of his younger brother, not to mention, without getting along for a long time, his feelings for Beatrice are actually not deep, and most of the time, he actually only has such a concept of mother .

The blond lover next to Beatrice was relieved that Ariel didn't dislike the kid, which was a good thing for him.

Beatrice laughed when she got the answer.

Ariel worried about his little brother sincerely, he is so ugly, what will he do when he grows up...

It wasn't long before the news from Vaum made people nervous, and to make matters worse, the little prince, Beatrice's newborn child, began to fall ill.

Beatrice searched for the best doctors in the country, and finally got the answer from an old man who had served as a priest in the temple.

"The abyss has awakened, and the overflowing magic energy has caused the baby to fall."

Beatrice knows the seriousness of the matter. She is very knowledgeable, especially the history. The battle of the abyss ended in the defeat of the abyss. The result of fighting against the abyss.

Countless souls fell during this process and returned to the abyss. At that time, every family prepared holy water to prevent weak people from being taken advantage of and fell into the abyss. Pay special attention when giving birth.

After that battle, half of the Celestial Clan was lost, and the Human Clan suffered heavy losses. They have only recovered in recent years, while the Elf Clan still lives in the dense forest, under the protection of the Mother Tree of Life, and never takes half a step.

Over time, those customs were also forgotten.

And now the little prince, who was defenseless, made the move.

The queen was very angry. She had just given birth and was at the peak of motherhood. Telling her that something happened to the baby at this time was like provoking the lioness with her cubs.

And the matter of the abyss is urgent, the only thing that can stop the little prince from falling is the only flower that will bloom in the abyss.

Without the slightest hesitation, Beatrice immediately dispatched an army to crusade against the abyss, led by Ariel.

Vaum and Andrew are on the front line, and only Ariel can take on the big responsibility.
