“Wow…”

Looking at the scenery outside, Louise's eyes widened in surprise. This was the first time she had seen such a scene in her life. Below was the boundless sea of ​​clouds, above was the azure sky, and in the distance the rising sun cast golden light, it looked like a fairyland on earth.

"Clouds, this is what the clouds look like!"

"How is it? Isn't it beautiful?"

"Mmmmm, so beautiful! Even a griffin can't fly so high!"

Hearing Red Ponytail's question, Louise nodded desperately, and Red Ponytail chuckled. Just kidding, VF-19 has specially enhanced the effectiveness of combat within the atmosphere. Ten thousand meters above the ground is a piece of cake for it. At this altitude, ordinary creatures will either die of lack of oxygen or freeze to death. I'm afraid that the dragons in this world can't fly that high.

After all, it is a low-magic world.

"SABER, what's up there?"

"Hmm... guess?"

"Is our world also a big sphere? I heard that the great ancestor protected our world..."

"Haha... guess what..."

Hearing Louise's question, Red Ponytail couldn't help but smile bitterly. To be honest, if it was in another world, she would have nodded. But it wouldn't work here, because Red Ponytail had already seen the true face of this world from the satellite scanning cloud map from Iona.

In fact, it was just like Emilia and Parker said, it was a big plate!

It should be said that the third coordinate point looks like a round bubble wrapped in chaos, and below the bubble is the Sea of ​​Chaos that Lina Inbass once mentioned. Then five long pillars extend from the Sea of ​​Chaos, holding five super-large plates, which are the five continents of this coordinate point.

The continent where Lina Inbas and Emilia are located is on the middle plate, while the world where Louise and others are located is on the plate on the right.

Oh my god, the first two coordinates, whether it was the world of Chtholly and the others or the world of EVA, at least they still followed common sense of physics. This damn place has long ceased to follow logic, it's just whatever you say...

Of course, if Fang Zheng's guess was correct, those so-called "pillars" did not really play a supporting role, after all, there was no gravity in space. On the contrary, those pillars played a role in isolating and pushing these continents away from the Sea of ​​Chaos. After all, the Sea of ​​Chaos...if you fall into it, you will definitely be doomed.

Currently, Iona and her companions were hovering in the sky, analyzing data on the Chaos Sea and the five continents. Fang Zheng did not let them get too close to the Chaos Sea. After all, it was rumored that the Golden Nightmare King was in the Chaos Sea. If they disturbed her, it would be a big trouble.

Louise just asked casually. She didn't get an answer and didn't delve into it. Instead, she continued to look outside excitedly, looking at the sea of ​​clouds and the earth under the clouds, and exclaimed from time to time.

"I know that place!"

"Ah, it's Grant. I didn't expect us to get here so soon. Even by horseback it would take at least a day!"

Humans have an innate desire to fly, and Louise is no exception, but people in this world cannot fly. In Lina Inbas's world, all high-level magicians can fly. Lina Inbas can fly, and so can the clown. In fact, in that world, the ability to fly itself represents the level of a magician. If you see a magician who can fly, you will surrender without saying a word.

Because those who can fly are ruthless people.

But in this world, people cannot fly into the sky even if they break their heads. They can only fly by taming flying animals like griffins and dragons, and the height is generally only a few hundred meters.

This kind of flying directly to an altitude of more than 10,000 meters is probably unprecedented.

"Okay, Albion is ahead."

However, what Red Ponytail said still surprised Louise.

“Already here?”

"What else do you think?"

"this……"

Facing the red ponytail's question, Louise didn't know what to say for a moment. Indeed, from what she had just seen, this strange bird was very fast, but because it was so high, Louise didn't even have a concept of speed. She just watched the ground below slowly move, and didn't expect that hundreds or thousands of miles would pass by in the blink of an eye.

"That's it..."

At this moment, Red Ponytail also turned on the screen and called up the previous reconnaissance image. It can be seen that Albion is an island floating in the air - this is also normal, there are always these illogical things in the magical world.

Isn't this the world of Chtholly and the others?

However, the current problem is not the floating island, but the situation on the floating island. Dozens of warships flying in the air are surrounding the palace and bombarding it crazily. Of course, there is no sign of breaking through the defense so far.

But depending on the situation, it's just a matter of time.

"What should we do about this, Saber?"

Seeing this, Louise also became nervous. She also knew the situation in Albion. It was obvious that the noble coalition had surrounded the palace. How long the battle could last depended on how long the royal family could hold out. In this case, how could they get in and contact the Crown Prince of Wales?

However, the solution provided by Red Ponytail is also quite simple.

"Just rush in."

Having said that, Red Ponytail pulled the joystick, and the fighter plane suddenly turned 180 degrees in the air, then quickly dived down towards the palace surrounded by the fleet.

Soon, the fleet surrounding the palace and the palace guards surrounded by the fleet all noticed the strange thing falling from the sky.

What is that?

Raising the monocular telescope in his hand, the fleet commander frowned. He had never seen anything like that before. The only things that could fly in the sky besides warships were flying dragons. But this thing in front of him didn't look like a flying dragon, and there was no human on it. Its wings were also weird and didn't flap at all.

So how did this thing fly?

This question just flashed through the commander's mind and was then thrown out of his mind. These questions were things that the alchemist needed to consider, and he only needed to fulfill his duties as a soldier.

"Warning artillery fire, demand the other side identify themselves! At the same time, prepare to launch an attack to prevent ..."

However, before the commander could even finish his order, he saw a flash of light before his eyes, and the next moment the strange red monster flew over their heads.

Such a fast speed?!

The commander was shocked when he saw this scene, but before he could react, a gust of wind came with a fierce whistling sound, which immediately blew everyone on the deck dizzy.

"That monster is coming!"

At this moment, watching the fighter planes rushing towards the royal city, the soldiers on the city wall also shouted loudly, and they raised their weapons in despair. However, at this time, the fighter planes had already flown over the city wall and rushed into the royal city. Seeing this scene, many soldiers even despaired. They all thought that this must be some new weapon of the noble army, and now, they broke through the last defense!

“Come over here!!”

Seeing the fighter planes rushing towards them, the others shouted and tried to avoid them. However, what no one expected was that when the strange thing was about to hit the palace, it suddenly turned around and turned into a huge monster similar to a magic puppet. Then, a violent airflow spurted out from under the feet of this monster, and it instantly stopped on the square hall in front of the palace.

Then, the hatch opened and Red Ponytail walked out with a frightened Louise.

"You nearly scared me to death, Saber!"

Louise now had a look of having survived a disaster. Just now, when the red-tailed girl rushed towards her in a fighter plane, she thought that this strange thing was out of control and it almost scared her to death!

"Isn't this a rush?"

The girl with red ponytail curled her lips and then looked around. She saw two girls coming down from above and others also approached cautiously.

"We are envoys from Toristin. We want to see the Crown Prince of Wales. Is he home?"

"Aren't you from the aristocracy?"

Hearing the question from Red Ponytail, an old noble stood up and asked, and Louise hurriedly answered.

"We are envoys from Tristin, and we have very important matters to discuss with the Crown Prince of Wales," Louise said, raising the red gem ring on her right hand.

“This is a keepsake!”

"That is indeed the water ring."

At this moment, a blond young man walked out. Seeing his appearance, the people around him were a little surprised, but he just waved his hand and then came to Louise.

"This on your hand is Anrietta's water ring, right?"

"Yes."

"Then watch carefully."

As he spoke, the young man reached out his hand, took off the ring on his hand, and brought it close to Louise's ring. Soon, the two gems began to resonate, flashing a rainbow-like light.

"This is the Wind Ring passed down by the Albion royal family. Water and wind form a rainbow. This is the bridge of communication for the royal family."

"Excuse me, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

After confirming the other party's identity, Louise knelt down hurriedly and saluted, and Red Ponytail nodded to him.

"Well, talking here is not a big deal..."

Having said that, the Crown Prince of Wales looked at the huge robot behind Red Ponytail with interest, then turned around.

"Come with me, we'll talk inside."

Hearing this, Louise hurriedly got up and followed. Red Ponytail took two steps, then remembered something, ran to the fighter plane and kicked it. Then the magazine on the leg opened, and a shivering, dazed guy rolled out from it.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, magicians are different from ordinary people."

Looking at the half-dead Varudo, Red Ponytail shrugged her shoulders, then walked away humming a little tune.

As for Varudo's life or death, what does it have to do with me?

It’s not like she didn’t remind me.

After that, Wales met Louise, Red Ponytail and Varudo, who had just recovered and was still trembling, in his room.

"Really... Anrietta is getting married..."

After reading the letter, Wales sighed deeply. Then he walked to the desk next to him, opened the drawer, took out a box from it, opened it with a key, and then took out another letter. He looked at the letter affectionately, opened it and read it again slowly, then closed it, put it in an envelope, and handed it to Louise.

"This is the letter the princess once sent me, and I have indeed returned it to you."

"Thank you so much."

Louise bowed her head respectfully and took the letter.

"I never thought that I would be able to see news about Anrietta before the defeat. This is pretty good."

“Your Highness…”

Hearing the Crown Prince of Wales mumbling to himself, Louise couldn't help but ask.

"You just said a glorious defeat. Doesn't that mean there's no possibility of winning?"

"hehe."

Wales smiled.

"The enemy has 50,000 troops and we have 300. The outcome is already determined. All we can do is let those guys see us die bravely in battle."

"Is your sacrifice the same?"

"Yes."

“…Your Highness.”

Hearing this, Louise seemed to have made up her mind.

"Excuse me, but I want to ask you about this letter... the letter you just handed me... is it a love letter?"

“It’s a love letter.”

Perhaps because he was about to die, the Crown Prince of Wales did not hesitate.

"It is just as you imagined. In fact, in this letter, Anrietta also swore in the name of the First Ancestor that she would love me forever... You also know that swearing love in the name of the First Ancestor can only be done when you are married. If this letter is exposed, she will be guilty of bigamy... You should know what the consequences will be."

Oh, this is interesting.

Hearing this, Red Ponytail was somewhat surprised. She had originally guessed that it was just an ordinary love letter, or something more private at most saying something about an extramarital affair. She didn't expect that this love letter could actually be a marriage certificate?

In other words, if Anrietta marries that emperor, it would be considered a second marriage?

Wow, if the king knew this, he would be so angry that he would die.

No wonder that green tea princess looked like her mother had died.

"In short, the princess is in love with the crown prince!"

"That was in the past."

"Your Highness!"

Hearing this, Louise couldn't help but get excited.

"Your Highness, please escape, escape to Tristin! Please come back to Tristin with us! We have Saber's mount, as you have seen, it is very fast, and it will definitely take you away safely!!"

"That won't do."

However, in the face of Louise's request, Wales smiled and shook his head, but Louise obviously would not give up just like that.

"Your Highness, this is not my request, but the request of Her Highness the Princess. Didn't Her Highness the Princess write that in the letter? I believe that Her Highness the Princess would never watch the person she loves so much die without helping him!"

Hearing this, Wales shook his head.

"In fact, she didn't write it."

“Your Highness!!”

"Louise, you're almost there."

At this moment, Red Ponytail couldn't stand it anymore and came out to interrupt Louise.

"Do you have a grudge against the princess? Or do you have a grudge against the crown prince?"

"How can you talk like that? Saber, I want the Crown Prince to escape!"

"Okay, so have you ever thought about the consequences?"

"as a result of……?"

"That's right. As the crown prince of Albion, if he flees to Tristan, wouldn't that just give those nobles an excuse to attack Tristan? Why do you think Princess Anrietta wanted to marry that emperor? Wasn't it to form an alliance with him and guard against attacks from the noble army of Albion? You're just giving them an excuse."

"this……"

"Also, let's take a step back and assume that the Crown Prince really went to Tristin, then he would have to hide his real name and not be able to reveal his true identity. Even if all this succeeds, what will happen in the future?"

"after?"

"Yes, they love each other, don't they? But the crown prince is apparently dead, and Anrietta certainly won't marry a dead man, so she will definitely marry someone else. Then you let the crown prince watch his lover being with another man? Or let Anrietta be watched by her lover while being in the arms of another man? Do you still have such an interest?"

"How could I have such a bad interest!"

"So that's it."

Red Ponytail spread her hands.

"Besides, the Crown Prince has made his decision, so let's respect his decision."

“…”

This time, Louise was speechless and lowered her head without saying a word, while Wales smiled gently.

"Indeed, as this lady said, this is my decision. Anrietta is also a royal family member. She will not put personal feelings before national affairs. You are an upright person, Miss Vallière, but... an upright person cannot be an ambassador."

Finally, dejected Louise and Red Ponytail said goodbye and left the room. Originally, Red Ponytail meant to finish the work and go home for dinner, but the Crown Prince of Wales invited them to stay and attend the last dinner of the ruler of the kingdom. Considering that a dying man would speak well, Red Ponytail did not refuse.

However, Varudo did not leave with them.

"Do you have anything else to say, Your Highness?"

"Yes, I have something to ask of you, Your Highness."

As he spoke, Varudo lowered his head.

"In fact, I was planning to propose to Louise tonight... I hope Your Highness can be our matchmaker and hold our wedding."

"oh?"

Hearing this, the Crown Prince of Wales was stunned for a moment, and then agreed readily.

"No problem, this is a very romantic development. Blessing couples is also the job of the royal family. I am very happy to have such an opportunity before the demise. Then, tomorrow before the decisive battle, I will hold a wedding for the two of you."

"Thank you very much."
