Chapter 172 The Golden Fleece Strategy
Medea took the blindfold and left the room, leaving Roy and the patient Natsuki Subaru.
Roy waved his hand, and the wallpaper on the wall fell off, turning into a group of origami bats, flying in circles and lifting the operating table.
Now the entire mansion is covered with Roy's hidden origami Shikigami. The mansion has become Roy's potential magic workshop without his master's knowledge or knowing it but not stopping it.
He opened the window directly and sent Natsuki Subaru back to his room to rest with origami Shikigami, while Roy picked up the golden wool left after the operation.
This treasure, which can be said to be closely related to Medea's life-breaking life, exudes its unique soft charm.
"Maybe..."
———————
The next day, although Natsuki Subaru was able to move to the ground, his eyes were entangled with thick bandages and could not see the light. He is currently being held by Rem as a guide for the blind.
Ram began to pack his luggage and prepare for all arrangements to go to the royal capital.
The first assembly of the King's Chosenists is about to come.
Medea and Roy talked in secret in the room.
"It's hard to deal with." Medea sighed, "It feels no less than that I want to be king in Athens under the name of "witch". In this world, the "silver-haired half-elf" is almost equal to the jealous witch."
According to legend, after Jason's death, Medea once lived in Athens and tried to oppose Theseus, but was expelled after failure.
"This... is a buying point after all. It's better than obscurity," said Roy. "This kind of evil deed that is not substantial but is talked about on the streets and alleys. Once there is a major event to reverse the reputation, the effect will be sensational. Even negative news is better than no news. This is the election."
After all, American universities have seen it many times. Even if it is negative news, as long as there is no substantial evidence and no wavering of the election, it is a good opportunity for exposure.
"But it's not OK to be all negative news. What should we do? If there is no positive news before the election is unveiled, we will face an unfavorable start." Medea also felt a little headache.
There is an extreme side and a shiny side hidden in her character.
In general, if she is identified as the object of protection, she will spare no effort; but once she is identified as a "witch", she will quickly become vicious in a state of self-deprecating manner.
Just as the Oil King once used the life of a child to extract magic, Medea tried his best to dissuade him and let him let these children go. Therefore, after being targeted by the emperor, he quickly made a meticulous plan and killed him and his subordinates together.
This is someone who can easily fall into extremes.
Medea is in a good mood now, and her character in front of Emilya has not collapsed. She shows a very sunny side and is very upright in her work. At least she didn't suggest to Roy that she secretly cursed and killed other king-selected people.
"Well, my plan is to use golden wool to create momentum for Amilia."
"Golden wool? It's useless to take things except to restore your body and mind. Maybe it's a good pillowcase?"
"No, I'm talking about its ability to summon dragons."
"I can't use that function. I came with a caster and did not have the power to summon the beast. If I came with a rider, I would like to say it." [Note]
"It's okay." Roy pointed to himself, "You are not a rider, but I can be. When I was in the state of 'Medusa', I had the ability to summon the beasts and could summon the Tianma from the Temple of Blood. With your golden wool and consuming magic power, I have great hope of summoning the dragon."
It is not uncommon for others to use another servant's treasure.
"This... seems to be possible. But even if you can summon the Korcas Dragon with rider introduction and golden wool, I don't have a way to control the dragon, or can your riding skills ride a dragon?"
"I'm afraid not. Even if Medusa has a level A riding skill, she still cannot control the dragon species. She may need to have a higher a, or a clear follower in the skills to do it."
"What should I do? Isn't it more troublesome to summon the dragon but cannot control it?"
"Not necessarily, we don't need to completely control the dragon. We just need to summon it, which is enough to create momentum. It's too difficult to control the dragon, so don't think about it. This country is a 'Dragon-pro-Dragon Kingdom', and there are so many things that can be used to do with dragons."
"You mean?"
“My plan is…”
——————————
A few days later, the group finally arrived at the capital.
Although Natsuki Subaru has not removed the bandage yet, he has adapted to the consumption caused by the clean eyes and can remove the bandage in a few days. Now he is being arranged to sit in the corner and be an audience member.
Under Medea's arrangement, Emilya changed her usual low-keyness and began to hold her speeches frequently in the suburbs of the royal capital.
The reason why we were in the remote suburbs of the capital was to avoid the power of other kings and start to release goodwill in places where we were not rich and poor.
Such a girl has no mature concept of governing the country. Even with Medea's teachings, Emilya can only say something general. Although there are not many listeners below, they are very supportive.
If you want to talk about why, of course it is not because of how good Emilya's eloquence is.
Didn't you see Grey and Ram carrying baskets and handing bread to the audience?
That's right, as long as you come to listen to Amilia's speech, you will send a black bread.
Applauded and gave Ram's personal roasted sweet potatoes.
Children who participated in the fairy tale reading meeting of "Emilya's Storytelling" after the speech can also get an extra egg and a piece of white bread.
With such a cheap bribery, Amilia didn't know how to laugh at other king-selected people, but she enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by everyone.
The king is not without discrimination. Many people even think that Amiriya has bad intentions and has any conspiracy. Even the word "witch" pops up again and again.
But there are still many people coming.
It's because of hunger.
Roy adopted the routine of preaching Christianity in the late Qing Dynasty. Regardless of whether you believe it or not, as long as you come to listen to Mass and claim that you believe in religion, you will give it to the "holy bread".
For this dry food, I don’t know how many believers have grown.
Spending the money of Count Rozval, Emilia kept distributing bread under the arrangement of Roy and Medea, and delivered speeches that would inevitably be applauded.
Those who come to receive the food will at least not say bad things about Amilia in person.
No matter what they really think, Emilya has created an atmosphere of enjoying the people, and has gradually become the focus of news in the royal capital during this period, developing towards "headlines".
Seeing more people participating every time and again, the two people who have been invisible behind the scenes nodded, and Roy said to Medea:
"It's almost done, you can start to act."
"No problem!" Medea said, "I have conditioned the earth veins. I will try to use the earth veins instead of your consumption, and it can start at any time!"
[Note] Medea, who was a rider, was the sun god. The two caster agents now have no divinity. If they come with rider agents, they will amplify the legend that they have achieved immortality through magic and ride in a dragon car, and should be the divine follower.
