"Is Her Majesty going to take action personally?"

All the civil and military officials were in an uproar.

Even ignoring the previous orders, all the goblins looked extremely excited, as if such a thing had not happened for hundreds of years.

"Water mirror?"

Jiang Li secretly wondered, what was that?

"Remember, I will not forgive you, nor will I save you."

"But Britain, even to the smallest pebble, is mine."

"You know, without my protection, Britain will have no future."

The Queen's voice, as cold as winter, echoed throughout the chamber.

"We will remember this in our hearts, Your Majesty! We are all your loyal servants. We want to give you all our time and swear our eternal loyalty to you!"

All the civil and military officials immediately knelt on the ground and each of them offered a declaration of allegiance in fear.

Even Bagster fell to his knees.

Only Jiang Li and several clan leaders were still standing in the field.

"All officials dispersed, leaving only the clan leader, the goblin knight, and the princess behind."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, all the officials felt relieved and quietly left the conference room, walking down the stairs and disappearing from everyone's sight.

The virtual images of Murrayne and Aurora also slowly faded away.

Soon, only Jiang Li, the Queen and a few others were left in the huge conference hall.

"Om-!"

Without any movement, a mirror as smooth as water waves appeared in front of the queen.

A scarlet figure walked out cautiously.

"Mother."

She looked at the queen, who showed no emotion, with some trepidation.

"You have indeed fulfilled the order to raze Sheffield."

Morgan seemed to not care about his daughter at all. He ignored her and turned his cold eyes to Gawain.

"But, the more crucial issue is that you failed in your attempt to capture the Child of Prophecy. Do you have anything to say?"

"Mother, this is all those two guys' fault! If they weren't so incompetent and weren't stopped by someone, this wouldn't have happened! And those were enemies who didn't show up, you know? Isn't that hilarious!"

The goblin Tristan laughed smugly.

"Comparatively, I found the Child of Prophecy herself and even fought her. It's just that they had more people than us and broke through our blockade. I'm not at fault at all!"

Although the facts are largely as she said, her statement is also annoying.

If it were Jiang Li, he would have wanted to beat her up right now.

I wasn't trying to break through your blockade at all. You didn't even blockade it. When you saw that our side was stronger, you let the soldiers delay time and you ran away!

"I am incompetent, please punish me, Your Majesty!"

Bagster fell heavily to his knees, filled with shame.

It was her fault that she failed to complete the Queen's mission. It had nothing to do with the strength of the enemy. She felt from the bottom of her heart that she should be punished.

"Hmph, after becoming a Goblin Knight, you're not going to get carried away, are you, Bagster?"

Woodworth licked the sharp wolf claws, and a mocking smile appeared at the corners of his narrow mouth.

"Not only did you fail to capture the Child of Prophecy, but you even let the Boggart you caught escape. You're really becoming less and less useful. Or is it that pretty princess next to you who's holding you back?"

Jiang Li raised his brows.

"Don't fart, little dog."

"What did you say!"

Woodworth's eyes bulged out, and he roared in a low voice with a murderous look in his eyes.

"This is the Queen's palace, not your toilet."

Jiang Li snorted coldly and said sarcastically.

"...!"

Woodworth's face changed, and his expression changed several times.

He tried hard to suppress the anger that was bursting out, and the hostility on his face slowly subsided.

"The difference in the level of dialogue is too great..."

Spriggan stood in the corner like a transparent man, looking at Woodworth with eyes full of pity.

Although the goblins of Fang are powerful, they are generally simple-minded and can never beat the experts in conspiracy and trickery.

Although this was the first time they met the princess, she seemed to be a shrewd and calculating person. She made Woodworth lose his temper with just a few words!

In addition, he is said to be very powerful and seems to have no weaknesses. I'm afraid he is a very difficult guy, so it's better not to provoke him if you can.

"Your Majesty, shortly after leaving Camelot, Your Highness and I encountered an assassination attempt by an unknown force targeting Your Highness. We soon separated and did not meet again in Sheffield. Our failure to capture the Child of Prophecy is entirely my fault and has nothing to do with Your Highness."

Bagster lowered his head and defended Jiang Li in a serious tone.

Jiang Li rolled his eyes.

Sister, can you not be so rigid?

When someone provokes you, do you actually explain yourself back in a serious manner?

Wouldn't it be reasonable to just curse on the spot and say your mother is dead?

"Assassination?"

The Queen suddenly spoke.

"Have you investigated what force it is?"

Woodworth was stunned.

Then he gritted his teeth and glared at Jiang Li with jealousy.

Why are you glaring at me?

Jiang Li glared at him, then looked at the queen.

"I've also been to some places, but there's no clue. I think it's some shady force. But they're so weak, there's no need to worry about them."

The queen nodded slowly, indicating that she understood.

"But you two came back together again, you were so affectionate, could it be possible that you two were having an affair?"

Woodworth's face was full of viciousness, and he spoke in a sarcastic tone.

You bastard, are you done yet?

Jiang Li immediately got angry and stomped the ground hard, vowing to teach him a lesson!

"That's enough, Woodworth!"

At this moment, Bagster suddenly raised his head and shouted angrily.

"I respect the head of your Ya clan, which is why I've been so patient! Don't push your luck and spit bloody words at me! You're not only slandering me, you're also insulting Mr. Jiang Li! He's undoubtedly an upright swordsman, and with the status of a princess, it's impossible for him to do anything indecent!"

Just like a good person getting angry, she, who was originally quiet, suddenly burst into a roar like a tiger, which stunned Woodworth for a moment.

Jiang Li looked away feeling a little guilty.

Am I such a noble person in Bagster's heart?

What should I do if I feel a little ashamed?

The Queen looked at him silently.

What are you looking at?

Jiang Li looked at her strangely.

The Queen silently looked away again.

I have absolutely no idea what she means.

"You greedy black dog, how dare you say such things?"

Woodworth came back to his senses, a look of deep disgust on his face.

"Don't you know your true nature? You prey on whatever you love. How much love have you devoured so far? And now you're pretending to be noble?"

"Come to think of it, Boggart used to be very optimistic about you. Could it be that you've reverted to your old ways and fallen in love with Boggart, causing your appetite to increase, and you ended up missing the opportunity to fight, which led to the Child of Prophecy's escape?"

Bagster's expression tightened, and his eyes became more sinister.

"With all due respect, Lord Woodworth."

Spriggan stood up with a smile.

He looked like a shrewd businessman, but he interrupted the quarrel between several people.

"Back in Tintagel, didn't you let the man who was suspected to be the Child of Prophecy escape because you missed the opportunity to fight?"

Jiang Li pricked up his ears.

Is there such a thing?

If I remember correctly, Custer Alai seems to be from the village of Tintagel?

"Spriggan, are you looking for trouble?"

Woodworth's face turned cold.

"That's enough. Shut up."

But at this moment, a cold scolding voice came, seemingly without any emotion.

"Where do you think this place is?"

"I'm so sorry, Your Majesty!"

Bagster came to his senses and lowered his head in fear.

Spriggan also lowered his head.

"…I am sorry for being rude."

Woodworth was silent for a moment and bowed slightly to the Queen.

"I have no interest in mediating your relationship, but no matter what conflicts there are, they must not erupt here. Don't make me say this a second time."

The Queen glanced at the two of them as if she was annoyed.

"Bagster and Woodworth both let the Child of Prophecy escape. I will punish them equally for any offense. The key now is where the Child of Prophecy is now, and who the mysterious figure that appeared in Sheffield is."

"What do you think about this, my princess?"

"Ah? Ask me?"

Jiang Li was stunned.

"I can't make it?"

Didn't I already tell you I'm not in Sheffield? Why are you asking me?

"Sure enough?"

The queen stared at Jiang Li intently.
