The 100,000-strong nomadic army was driven back to the Atephis grassland by Amabel, and the latter cut off the heads of the 10,000 nomadic soldiers they captured and formed them into a mountain!
[“If you dare to cross this line, the nomadic people will be extinct.” – Amabel]
This move caused an uproar in the Ice Kingdom!
[Your approval rating is decreasing, current approval rating: 50%…44%…38%…]
It dropped to 28%, and Esde’s support rate finally stabilized.
The Arctic Ice Kingdom is a country that worships the strong. After this battle, Esde and Amabel formed a sharp contrast.
In fact, Esde didn’t fight badly.
But war only cares about the result. Only the winner can be respected, while the loser will eventually turn into dust.
Even though Amabel used treacherous tactics to collude with the beastmen in this war, she won in the end.
“Phew! Lost.”
Esde gritted his teeth, his face full of reluctance.
She had to admit that in her current situation, it was impossible for her to fight against Amabel, unless the royal family took action. But that would definitely end up as a civil war within the Arctic Ice Kingdom, and the outcome would be mutual destruction. How would she fight when the beastmen and nomadic peoples launched a massive attack?
If a situation like this were to develop, it would definitely be a fatal blow to the Arctic Ice Kingdom.
Esde was slightly distracted.
Suddenly remembered something.
She opened the list of vassal states and saw that the eye-catching vassal card at the top was still on her side.
Ash Engle, Viscount of the Kingdom, Lord of Rivia City.
After developing for so long, he has climbed from a knight to a viscount.
Esde hesitated for a moment, and then, as if possessed by a ghost, clicked the recall button.
[Should Ash Engel be recalled? ]
【Yes. 】
Pushing open the dusty door, black fog began to spread like fireworks from hell. In the fog, a group of cavalrymen in black armor slowly walked out.
Glancing at the information on the simulation interface, Ash raised the corner of his mouth.
“Khorne Guards, attack!”

[In February 1779, your brother Rocks’ army approached, and you stood alone in the attic, facing the north and cried out sadly – ‘If Ash was here, this princess would not have come to this! ‘, and with a loud cry, facing the thousands of arrows under the attic, you laughed three times, used all your magic power to perform the fire explosion technique, and blew the entire attic into pieces. ]
【you are dead. 】
【本次模拟结束。】
“Ahhhh!! Damn you Rocks, I’m going to kill you next time!!!”
College.
In Ferris’ room, the princess looked at the black screen and couldn’t help but screamed three times, “Ash! Ash! Ash!” Then she fell headfirst onto the bed, feeling exhausted.
【Synchronizing simulation memory.】
After a while, Phyllis got up from the bed dejectedly.
Died again, she died again.
This time, he learned from his previous lessons and finally eliminated the traitor. He graduated from the academy early and returned to the Kingdom of Candia, ready to make great achievements.
Unexpectedly, the old king suddenly died of illness and passed the throne to the second son, Rocks. The other two princes were dissatisfied, and the civil war in Candia broke out.
After all, even if you haven’t eaten pork, you have seen pigs run. After watching Ash operate for a few times, Phyllis also learned a lot of tricks, and her development along the way was quite good. As the person with the strongest magical talent in the kingdom and a magical genius who has the hope of entering the quasi-god realm, she naturally has a lot of supporters.
After a whole year of chaos last year, the eldest and the third were eliminated, leaving her to fight a decisive battle with the second oldest, Rocks. Originally, her power was no weaker than Rocks, but this guy actually colluded with the underground palace forces. The two major underground palace forces – the dark elves and the succubus sneaked into Candia, and her subordinates were killed one after another, either assassinated or defected at the last minute. Until February, Phyllis, who had lost the fight, was besieged alone in her own mansion, and finally ended up committing suicide.
Before she died, she was still thinking, if she had Ash’s invincible gold… no, it’s already a colored card, wouldn’t it be easy to kill the villain Rocks?
“It’s all because of that guy Esde. He stole my God General Card.”
Phyllis got up and reopened the simulator, too lazy to read the simulation evaluation. It was just some ‘narrow defeat’ or ‘starting over’ or something like that, which was meaningless.
Compared to this, she wanted to know whether Esde was dead or not. Since he said that Ash was not needed, considering the dangerous place in the North, she didn’t believe Esde could hold on for long.
As soon as I entered, I saw Esde taking some actions and recalling Ash in the critical moment.
[In April 1779, Ash Engle was ordered to enter the Royal City.]
—-simulation—-
[Phyllis: @Acede!! Didn’t you say you don’t need Ash? Then what are you doing now? Everyone, come out and blame her! ]
[Phyllis: Where are the people? Are you all in simulation? Impossible, I’m done.]
[Phyllis: Really? Am I the only one who died? I don’t believe it. You must be dead too. Are you hiding and not talking? ]
[Felice: @Weine @Irelia?]②
The news in the forum was rushing towards 99+, and Ash, after being recruited into the royal city by Esder, was naturally ostracized.
[In April 1779, after Amabel defeated the nomadic tribe, her reputation in the kingdom soared, and she once overshadowed the crown prince Esder.]
[At the end of April, the voices began to spread in the royal city that “Amabel is more suitable to be the next queen than Esde”. The next day, Esde recalled Ash Engle from the border. All major magic newspapers questioned that Princess Esde was “not doing her job properly” and was obsessed with men. She was not worthy of the title of crown prince.]
[In early May, the nobles of the Amabel faction wrote to the emperor and requested that Esde should be removed from the title of crown prince because he had failed the trial mission.]
“Humph! These guys.”
Esde’s face was cold. She knew that those so-called rumors must be the work of the Amabel faction.
The Iron-blooded Duke defeated the nomadic tribe, while Princess Esde was beaten by the nomadic tribe and fled away. Amabel would definitely not miss such a good opportunity.
Fortunately, she is the crown princess after all, and the Ice Queen is on her side.
But Esde knew that continuing like this was definitely not a solution. If she didn’t do something to restore her support rate, the situation would completely go to Amabel’s favor.
Ash.
Even if Esde doesn’t want to admit it, the only way to turn the tables is by relying on Ash.
“He is too weak now. He is just a nominal viscount, and Rivia City is still Amabel’s territory.”
After a brief thought, Esde gave Ash three thousand soldiers and sent him to suppress the threat of the orcs.
Although the nomadic coalition had been repelled by Amabel, the orcs who had entered the kingdom’s territory to plunder had not completely retreated, and many places in the kingdom are still under threat from the orcs.
To deal with these orcs, only three thousand soldiers are definitely not enough. Unfortunately, Esde cannot mobilize more troops now. She has just experienced a defeat and her support rate has plummeted. The only troops she can mobilize are these three thousand personal guards.
Esde simply gave them all to Ash. As long as the latter could fight a few good battles, she would have a reason to promote Ash to her mother.
But Esde knew how difficult this road was. If she promoted a man in a country where women were in power, even people in her faction would probably gossip about it.
“Give it a try.”
[In May 1779, Ash led 5 guards and was ordered to eliminate the harm caused by the orcs.]
As soon as Ash took action, every pair of eyes in the Arctic Ice Kingdom immediately looked over.
Everyone knows that Ash is Esde’s man. Now that the latter is at a disadvantage, he urgently needs military merit to restore his reputation. If Ash loses again, it will be really difficult for Esde to turn things around.
But at such a critical moment, it is really hard to understand why Esde handed her fate to a man.
What can a man do?
What else can you do besides giving birth to children and cooking?
[In mid-May 1779, Yaxiu led his troops to kill a thousand orc raiders in the Solsoda grassland.]
[In the same month, Ash again killed 1,500 orc raiders.]
The orcs’ main attack was in the northeastern territory of the kingdom. At this time on the strategic map, the three thousand people led by Ash were beginning to implement the mopping-up plan.
Three thousand men, with battle reports coming one after another.
[In June, Ash led his army to attack the orc camp and killed 6 orcs.]
[At the end of June, the orc commander Bill issued a hunting order to the team that Ash was in. Three days later, Bill assembled 6 orc troops to encircle and suppress Ash. The latter designed a plan to lure the orcs into the Mia Forest, used fire attacks, and killed more than orcs. ]
Esde was slightly stunned.
“Is this okay?”
Although she knew that Ash would definitely achieve some results, the result seemed a little unexpected.
The army of 3,000 people killed more than 6,000 people. Not only that, whenever Ash arrived at a place, he would recruit soldiers on the grounds of “killing the enemy in the name of the princess.” Although not many people were recruited each time, with more and more victories, the reputation of the Princess’s Guards became more and more famous. After the orcs were burned this time, a large number of people came to join them.
Esde clicked on the situation of the Royal Guards and found that the number of people had increased to 6,000, which had doubled.
Mixed feelings.jpg
Is this the value of the gold card?
No, it’s a color card now.
“Huh~ That’s good.”
Seeing that Ash was actually starting to snowball on his own, Esde gave up the idea of recalling him immediately. Judging from the current situation, those orcs in the northeast region were the military merits for Ash’s promotion.
But at this moment, the orc army suddenly withdrew.
Helplessly, Esde had to recall Ash back to the royal city ahead of time.
[In July 1779, Ash led his army back to the royal city. Because of his heroic performance in killing orcs, Ash’s reputation in the kingdom soared. You were visited by various princes and nobles one after another, and they expressed their desire to make friends with this brave viscount.]
The sharks smell it and come.
The corner of Esde’s mouth twitched slightly. She knew a little about how chaotic these royal city nobles were in private, but she didn’t expect that the attention would be directed to her. Although it would be of great help to her to get to the top by relying on Ash to win over these people, Esde disdained to do such a thing… Besides, she didn’t think that these people combined could be better than Ash alone.
Even if a hundred blue cards are added together, they are not as good as one gold card.
Not to mention that Ash is the only colored card in the entire game. Its importance goes without saying, right?
[In July 1779, you proposed to promote Ash to the rank of Marquis because of your contribution in resolving the orc riots.]
[Your proposal was refuted by Amabel, who said, “The orc army had already been timidated by the Iron Blood Legion, and Ash was just taking advantage of it.” She believed that Ash’s contribution was not enough to qualify him for the position of Marquis.]
【Ash was appointed as Earl.】
iu
Esde snorted softly, she knew that Amabel would not let her people gain power easily.
He is just an earl and has no territory. What can he do?
Just then, another message popped up.
u
[The Queen of Ice appointed Yaxiu as the Knight Commander, commanding 30,000 cavalrymen of the kingdom.]
Esde was stunned. He didn’t expect his mother to do such a thing.
i
The identity of the Knight Commander of the Kingdom is not ordinary. It is a real position of military power. With 30,000 cavalrymen of the Kingdom, his status is only higher than that of a local marquis.
In other words, although Ash is only an earl, he also serves as the knight commander, which is higher than her original proposal. Moreover, this kind of promotion will leave Amabel speechless. After all, Ash’s title is still earl, and the knight commander is only valued by the queen for his personal ability, which has nothing to do with Esde.
This move by the Ice Queen is very clever.
After all, she is her daughter. How could she just watch Esde being suppressed by Amabel?
Esde saw that the situation had improved immediately. It was no longer possible for Amabel to suppress her. The biggest problem for Esde now was the lack of an opportunity to inherit the throne.
[Ash proposed to “restart the trial under the pretext of eliminating the danger posed by the orcs in the north.”]
Esde was stunned, then frowned.
Although Ash’s proposal is a solution, the problem is that the orcs are stronger than the nomads. Although Ash helped Irelia to destroy the elves in the last game, that was when Ash was developing steadily and Irelia was helping him with all her strength.
At the beginning of this game, Ash was thrown into a border village by her. Although he had 30,000 cavalry, her support rate had dropped by more than half, and she had almost no one available. How could she fight?
