The Halo Zone is the economic edge of the Royal Capital. It is not within the city, but a piece of land surrounding the Royal Capital.

Here, the Duke's Manor, where the dinner is being prepared, is very lively. Although it was originally only a down-and-out baron, it is old on the outside but new on the inside.

There were very few nobles who came to attend Majia's inheritance banquet. After all, others still maintained an observant attitude towards a big noble that they were not very familiar with.

Especially when it comes to the inheritance of nobles, Magya was too generous to the church, which made many nobles express dissatisfaction.

One issue is safety.

It is not safe outside the city here. Even the king has to kill two thieves on his way out, so it is conceivable that Majia will have a dinner party. Even if someone comes with this or that intention, just say a few polite words to Majia.

Then he took the wine glass and went to the corner to chat alone.

In this way, even if Majia wears a necklace and looks like a wax figure, it still feels a little uncomfortable.

But everything is the master's task.

Majia looked at Alison who was drinking red wine not far away, sighed and walked over.

"Sir, you seem to be in a bad mood?" Majia asked.

Alison nodded painfully after hearing this, took a sip of wine and said to Majia, "Junior Sister's old habit has come back again. She led the newly acquired serfs to massacre a church. Now people in the entire territory are looking for them. She

She just told me that she didn’t have dinner yet, and she was eating mushrooms on the mountain.”

"Is that so? Do we need rescue?" Majia asked, sitting next to Alison.

"No need, they are the black plague." Alison shook her head, "If they hadn't hidden their identities, the bishop would have died."

Majia nodded slightly when she heard this, knowing that Alison was just worried about the mission being exposed, so she picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, and then laughed at herself:

"In the past, even wars could not stop the nobles from participating in banquets. Many nobles even indulged in enjoying them. I don't know why my place has become desolate."

"What are you worrying about? If you don't come, you can give food to your serfs." Alison looked at her fingers and said, "Do you know why I asked you to choose the baron's manor? It's because there is also a fiefdom here."

"You plan to use them?" Majia looked at the clumsy helping serfs and asked doubtfully, "Even a pig is worth more than them."

"No, in my opinion they are birds." Alison looked at the night sky after hearing this, "If you feed them, they will come. If you feed them every day, they will not leave. They can turn into savage beasts because of their hunger.

Because of hope, he will become a brave warrior who is not afraid of death."

Alison said, taking out the card she got during the day and handing it to Majia.

"Plant loyal apples in the yard. The fruits will be eaten by your subjects, and they will become loyal. The slaves from all realms will be summoned, and they will make weapons for you. You can choose this suit for various occasions, and you can

Increase your power."

Alison leaned her elbows on the dining table as she spoke, admiring the performance of the paid dancers. "Those nobles will be very sorry if they know that this banquet is so luxurious."

"You're right." Majia also started watching.

The dancing girls wore colorful long skirts and twisted their waists flexibly, like beautiful elves dancing under the flames.

While Alison was watching the cheerful dance and Maja was keeping her company motionless, among the guards who had been accepted as inheritance assets, the squad leader who had just been promoted ran in.

"Your Majesty, Duke Andrew is here."

"Really?" Majia was stunned when she heard this, and then looked at Alison, who shook her head slightly.

Majia understood that Alison hadn't set up a line for her yet, and this big fish came by herself, so she quickly stood up and prepared to greet the future new king. However, she saw Andrew and Dominic, the son of the former steward of the kingdom.

Walked in by himself.

"Good night, Grand Duke." Majia saluted respectfully. Although the man was very thin, sickly, and looked unhealthy, Majia was still very polite when she thought of having to partner with him in the future.

"You are the Maja who came back with my sister's specimen and was deposed by the king, right?" Andrew said arrogantly.

He himself considers himself to have a good personality, but he always speaks with a sense of humor.

This made Dominic on the side feel nervous.

"Yes, Grand Duke, it's me." Majia was not angry, and still maintained a polite smile, "Even if the princess has become a specimen, her beauty is not compromised at all."

"Of course, she is my Andrew's sister." Andrew raised his chin slightly and said.

Dominic on the side couldn't bear it any longer. He tugged on Andrew's clothes, and then pointed to the distance, "You'd better go over there and talk, and leave what you want to talk to me."

"Uh, okay." Andrew saw Dominic winking wildly at him, and knew that his true temperament was unsatisfactory again, so he walked to the table on the side, "Let me check whether the banquet is held up to standard.

Bar."

"Well, the napkins are very luxurious. They are made of fringed fabric and won't stain my clean turtleneck lace."

Andrew walked aside to discuss literature with some minor nobles with a numb face, while Dominic looked at Majia and nodded slightly to apologize. He was about to speak when Majia pointed to the dining table and said, "Let's talk while eating.

"

"Then I'm not welcome."

At Marjane's invitation, Dominic walked to the dining table. He took out the small table knife he carried with him and cut a piece of bread to use as a plate. Then he picked up a glass of wine and greeted Marjane.

"The wine tastes good." Dominic blinked while tasting the wine, "For some reason, I always drink spoiled wine at banquets."

Majia smiled slightly when she heard this and said, "That's the specialty of this place."

Dominic nodded after hearing this. Majia's self-restraint was pretty good, and she didn't say it was because the flame flower was too hot.

After praising Majia casually, Dominic looked aside to see the female guard who was in a daze not far away from the chair, and then looked at Majia again.

"That is my personal maid. There is no need to avoid anything, and she will not spread the word." Majia said with a confident tone.

"Well, it's actually about the Grand Duke. You know that I am his partner. In fact, the Grand Duke admires you very much. He has admired you since the first time he saw you in the royal capital when he was young."

Dominic opened his mouth and started telling lies, telling the story of Andrew's friendship for Marga with great emotion, looking back with a smile, and waiting silently for the words that he could not speak.

When she was deprived of her identity by the old king, she wanted to stop her at all costs. When she was suffering, she wanted to hire mercenaries to rescue her, but in the end she was suppressed. Majia's eyes changed after hearing this, and even Ellie

Sendu turned around.

She really wanted to ask, is this young Andrew you are talking about yourself?

Until Dominic finished speaking, Majia's expression was frozen. Even if she wore the necklace and went through hell, even if Alison was sitting next to her, she could not suppress her emotion.

She stood up and was about to call Andrew, but found that he didn't know where to hide. At this moment, Dominic stopped her, "If you agree, we will send the invitation tomorrow and have it at noon."

Have a wedding."

"It's so fast, I'm not ready yet." Majia said, covering her chest.

"Don't worry, leave everything to Andrew, he has already prepared everything." Dominic said.

"Okay, I promise you." Majia nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"Then without further ado, let's go back and prepare as soon as possible, so we won't delay here." Dominic nodded solemnly.

"Oh, okay." Majia heard this and sat on the chair, covering her chest. She said to Alison, who was looking at the drunken nobles on the ground, "Alison, help me see off Master Dominic."

"Okay, Your Majesty the Duke." Alison nodded after hearing this, and then nodded to Boken, who was secretly guarding her.

Chapter 4.1 Betrayal is not a game

Alison saw off Dominic, and gave a slight salute to Andrew, who had already hid in the carriage, and then saw off the leaving nobles one after another, until the last drunken noble, the guy who was hiding next to the table and eavesdropping, Alison

Mori used Abe Hiroshi's hypnosis.

"Have you reported what happened here?" Alison asked.

"Reporting. After all, the matter is so urgent. Andrew will get married tomorrow. We can't let this loser succeed to the throne with the help of this woman's property." The noble said with a serious face.

"Oh, what should we do?" Alison asked with a frown.

"Don't worry, the Grand Duke will definitely send his people to deal with this manor tonight."

"But there is a sky knight there."

"The Sky Knight is nothing, the Archduke's Black Ridge Archer is the king of the Flame Flower!"

After the nobleman finished speaking, he covered his mouth and looked behind him carefully.

"Don't worry, no one will notice." Alison pointed at his forehead, "When you walk out of this courtyard, you will forget everything just now."

The noble nodded and immediately walked outside the manor.

Alison walked towards the two-story wooden house in the manor.

When she returned, the servants were cleaning up the floor, but Marga was still sitting there. Boken saw this and dismissed the servant, pulled the chair in the middle for Alison, and then they had dinner together.

Alison was eating and saw that Majia was still distracted, so she sat on the dining table and slumped her hands there, "I tell you for sure: one of you is going to betray me."

Boken was shocked when he heard this, and then turned to look at Maka. She seemed to have come back to her senses at this time. When she saw Alison standing up immediately, she asked nervously and carefully, "Sir, if I can convince Andrew to join us,

Is it okay not to kill him?"

"So you are going to tell that Andrew everything?" Boken said angrily after hearing this, "You are stupid, did you know that from the moment you entered the manor?"

Just as Boken was about to scold her, Alison stretched out her hand to stop him, and then continued eating.

"Once you commit such things as greed, anger and ignorance, no one will persuade you to wake up. I won't say anything and I won't be a bad person. You have free will and everything is decided by you."

Alison said, taking out the cultist's shield and amulet and handing them to Marga, "We might need them later."

When Majia saw this, she didn't say anything and knelt on the ground directly.

"Okay, let's go and rest. Don't come out tonight. Andrew's brother, the man named Fu Ji, will come and silence him." Alison waved her hand and said.
