Game of the World Tree

The guard is respectful.

Sophia is frowned slightly:

“I am an imperial nobleman, even a superior lord, I can’t arbitrarily restrict my actions, let alone that the Rosen family is not the de jure lord of Wells …Please get out of the way.”

After she finished speaking, she wanted to move on.

However, in the next second, the long spear in the guard’s hand was in front of the girl.

There is no expression on their faces. Although the tone is still respectful, there is something in the respect that cannot be rejected:

“Sophia Young Lady, this is also for you Security, after all… From a legal point of view, the Wells family has also followed the frontier to rebel.”

“Nonsense! Since I stand here as the first heir, it proves that Wei Sofia’s loyalty, I’m going to see the Lord Duke, he knows this best!” Sophia said angrily, and at the same time showed the power of the mage.

However, the two guards guarding the door were not at all shaken.

Their body is also exuding aura, the powerful aura belonging to the silver rank spreads, but their voices are still unwavering:

“Sorry, Sophia Young Lady, this It is the order of the Lord Duke, but…you just can’t walk around that’s all, if you have any needs, you can tell us all, and we will meet any of your needs.”

“Then I I want to take a walk outside and go to bask in the sun, can’t you?”

The girl’s voice turned cold.

“Sorry, you can only walk around at will. If you want to bask in the sun, you can do it in front of the window. This room is specially selected by Lord Scott. It has excellent lighting and can also bathe indoors. To the warm sunshine.”

The guard shook the head, replied.

“Then what’s the difference between this and house arrest?! I’m not a prisoner of the Rosen family!” Sophia said angrily.

After hearing what she said, the guard hesitated for a while, Weiwei gave a salute, and said firmly:

“Sophia Young Lady, please understand our difficulties, we just It’s only the execution of the Lord’s orders.”

In response to the determined gazes of the guards, Sophia’s eyes showed a trace of anger.

At this time, the dispute in front of the door finally attracted the steward of the Rosen family…

“What happened? Noisy?”

It is the old steward of the duke’s house, Scott Baron.

Looking at Scott Baron dressed as an old gentleman, Sophia calmed down her anger and said patiently:

“Scott Baron, what is this Meaning? Why should I restrict my personal freedom?”

Scott Baron showed a kind smile, then apologized:

“Sorry, Sophia Young Lady, this is also Lord Duke takes your safety into consideration. After all… Many of the nobles who escaped from Maple Leaf in recent days are spies of frontier bosses. Lord Duke must also consider the safety of all parties…”

“I’m not a spy!”

Sophia said angrily.

“I know, of course you are not a spy. You are a nobleman of the empire. This is also confirmed and confirmed by the Lord Duke, but you must also understand that it was during the war recently and your identity was still too sensitive after all Even if the Lord Duke doesn’t care, many aristocrats in the western region will talk about this kind of thing behind their backs…”

“After all, the Lord Duke is not the lord of the western region, just stationed here to command the army that’s all, and all kinds of materials still need the help of local nobles to raise, so…please understand.”

Scott Baron explained gently.

After finishing speaking, he smiled again:

“Of course, this time will not be too long. When the material raising of our army is over, Lord Duke will naturally let go of you When the time comes…maybe you will be invited to be the honorary commander of our army and give a speech at the Oath Party.”

Hearing this, Sophia fell silent.

She looked at the gentle old steward, then looked at the expressionless guard, frowned and asked:

“So, how long do I have to wait here?”

“It won’t be too long, as short as three or two days, and at most it will not exceed a week.”

Scott Baron replied respectfully.

“One week? Do I still need to be locked up in this room for a week? Do you know how many changes will happen in Maple Leaf in a week?! I want to see Lord Duke, I want to personally meet him Say!”

The girl said angrily.

“You have been worried, the frontier soldiers are strong, especially after the mainland’s magic power rebounds, the entire maple leaf collar has a qualitative leap, and the frontier himself is suspected to have breakthrough Legendary, so… …This war needs a long-term plan.”

“It’s only a week, and it has no effect on the situation of the war. Lord Duke speculates that this rebellion… it may take three months to half a year. “

Scott Baron said to the girl while shaking his head.

Looking at old Steward’s determined attitude, Sophia suddenly felt exhausted in her heart.

She vented her imposing manner, sighed:

“I know, I will endure it for a few more days.”

“As long as you understand, I More maids will be sent to take care of you and meet your needs.”

Scott Baron gave a pleased smile.

The request to go out was unsuccessful, so Sophia had to continue to return to the house.

In a short while, several more respectful maids were sent by Baron to take care of the girls.

It’s just that, looking at the maid of the Rosen house, Sophia was somewhat distracted.

She is a little simple, but she is not stupid. In addition to taking care of herself, I am afraid these maids also have the meaning of monitoring herself.

No matter how Scott Baron explains, there is no doubt that she is indeed under house arrest by the Rosen family now.

At this time, the girl also regretted her decision a little bit. She didn’t know whether she came to ask for help or not…

It was just that Duke Rosen made it. Thinking of the long history of the Rosen family, Sophia felt that it shouldn’t be such a famous family. After all… For these ancient nobles, the most important thing is reputation.

Relying on this only belief, although she was anxious and dissatisfied, Sophia finally stayed patiently in the room.

…

In the next few days, Sophia still couldn’t leave this empty house.

Not only that, but the girl keenly noticed that the guards outside the room were greatly strengthened after she got angry for the first time.

Even the guards patrolling in the garden outside the window have doubled.

“Are you so worried about me running away…”

There was a trace of sarcasm in the girl’s heart.

She was indignant, but helpless.

Unconsciously, five days passed like this.

For five days, Sophia failed to step out of the room and was almost isolated from the outside world.

She asked the guard and the maid about outside news, but they didn’t know after asking three questions. They didn’t know if they didn’t want to talk to the girl too much or didn’t know at all.

Not only that, even the old steward Scott Baron of the duke’s house, after meeting Sophia on the first day, never appeared again.

This made the girl feel like she was a forgotten prisoner.

Of course, being forgotten is impossible, and even exactly the same, the Rosen family must have taken her seriously.

Because four days later, the number of guards guarding the room doubled, not only that…I don’t know if it was Sophia’s illusion, it seems that the guards and the maid treat her more respectfully.

And after the sixth day, the girl finally ushered in a different face.

It was a lady dressed up as a nobleman. She looked 30-40 years old. She wore a fashionable women’s mink coat and was accompanied by a dozen maids to the room where Sophia was. .

“You are Sophia Young Lady? You are really a beautiful woman! No wonder Lord Duke likes you so much…”

“I am Viscountess Abraham, Lord Duke Please ask me to help you pick a dress for the dinner party.”

She said enthusiastically.

“Dinner? Dress?”

Looking at the row of maids holding dresses, Sophia was taken aback.

“Yes, yes, you are the protagonist of the banquet tonight! What color do you like? blue?red?purple? I think your appearance is as elegant as an elf, maybe Elf Race The pure white you like is more suitable for you…”

Viscount Abraham said enthusiastically, while calling the maid to dress Sophia.

Sophia was not at all pleased by the flattery of the Countess, on the contrary, her attention was completely drawn to the banquet.

“I am the protagonist of the banquet? Is the army finally ready to go?”

Sophia asked expectantly.

“The army is leaving?”

A dazed face was brushed across the Viscountess’s face.

“Isn’t it a feast for the teacher?”

The girl was slightly taken aback.

The Viscountess shook the head, and then a flattering smile appeared on her face:

“Of course not. It was your introduction dinner. The Duke will officially introduce you tonight. To the nobles who came to Morningstar City.”

A formal introduction dinner? at this time?

Sophia was confused.

However, Viscount Abraham’s next sentence made her like falling in a ice hole:

“Congratulations! You will be attracted by the Lord Duke and become Master Lukas’s engagement partner! With the help of the Rosen family, you may become the youngest female elector in the entire empire in the future!”

“The engagement? When did it happen? I never I haven’t agreed!”

The girl was shocked.

cracking a joke!

She is the only heir of the Wells family, how can she marry the Rosen family?

Different from the Kingdom of Ayers, the nobles of the Holy Manian Empire are extremely important to the bloodline inheritance of the family, even if it is a branch of a clan, they will keep the bloodline continuation of this branch as much as possible.

For the only female heir, generally speaking, only a lower-level noble or excellent civilian Transcender can choose a male to marry!

“You don’t know? How is this possible! Now everyone in Morningstar City knows, you are the future Mrs. Earl of Sals!”

Viscountess Abraham Astonished.

The Sals Earl collar is the eldest son of Duke Rosen, Lukas von Rosen’s Fiefdom.

Although the young Master, Duke of dementia, who is almost 30 years old, was deprived of the right to inherit the title of Duke by Duke Rosen, he still gave him a piece of Earl territory.

Of course, it’s just a small piece, perhaps not even bigger than the rule of Zerowan of the Wells family.

Sofia’s face turned pale when she thought of the well-known dementia.

At this time, she finally understood why Duke Rosen wanted to put herself under house arrest…

I am afraid that at first he planned to forcibly enter into a marriage with the Duke’s family!

If she, as the sole heir, marries the Duke’s eldest son Lukas, then the Rosen family will completely obtain all the claims of the Wells family, and the future marquis of the border can be easily included In hand!

As for the Wells family…

I am afraid, there will be no Wells family anymore.

And even if she will become a female elector, she will probably be a puppet of the Rosen family, without freedom!

Thinking about everything, Sophia’s heart was filled with great regret and strong anger.

She couldn’t believe that Duke Rosen dared to really do this, she really dared to ignore the wishes of an imperial nobleman and forcibly and unilaterally announced the marriage contract!

“No, I don’t at all agree! I want to see Duke Rosen! This is illegal, not approved by the church, and invalid!”

Sophia angrily Said.

After speaking, she quickly moved towards the door and ran away, but was quickly stopped by the guards.

“Let go of me, I want to see Duke Rosen! He has no right to deal with my marriage!”

The girl said angrily.

“What happened? So noisy?”

Just when Sophia was angry, Scott Baron’s familiar voice came.

The girl turned around and saw the old steward of the duke’s house standing in the corridor with a kind-looking Elderly.

Sophia recognized that it was the Bishop Santis, the beneficiary of the Eternal Church stationed in the western region, and the general bishop of the Western Diocese of the Eternal Church.

She lit up, and she shook off the long spear of the guards and came to them.

Then, she first gave a salute to Elderly and said:

“Sophia von Wells, I have met Lord Santis Bishop.”

After speaking, she took a deep breath and was about to ask Master Bishop for help.

All marriages in the empire need to be blessed by the church to be legal. As long as she explains the situation to the church, she can be free!

In any case, you must never attend the dinner, otherwise… the Rosen family publicly announces the marriage in social situations, even if she denies it, it will become a fact!

“Master Santis bishop, I need your help!”

Sophia said excitedly.

However, Santis bishop waved his hand and stopped the girl’s words.

And his next sentence made Sophia’s mood completely sink to the bottom:

“Sophia Young Lady, I haven’t congratulated you on becoming a member of the Rosen family. May Father God bless you…”

He has a kind face, but what he said made Goddess stunned.

“No…I don’t, I don’t at all want to marry the Rosen family!”

She was indignant and authentic.

“Sophia Young Lady, you laughed, this is something that even the church has witnessed, and it is also something you hope for. Do you want to repent?”

By the side of bishop Scott Baron frowned, his voice slightly stern.

Sophia was stunned.

Looking at this stern-looking old steward, she absolutely couldn’t think that she was still the amiable Elderly a few days ago.

And Santis bishop also said solemnly:

“Sophia Young Lady, a marriage that has been blessed by the church, even if it is a marriage contract, it is sacred and inviolable. Please be careful. Speaking, so as not to trigger Spiritual God’s anger!”

Watching Scott Baron and Santis’ bishop’s reconciliation, watching the surrounding guards and maids look on, Sophia’s mood was completely gloomy.

At this time, if you don’t understand that Duke Rosen has already walked through the relationship of the eternal church and completely deceived her, then she is too stupid.

It’s just that, watching the bishop, which has always been sacred and transcendent, stunned with the nobles, the girl said it was not disappointment or indignation in her heart.

“Is this the great nobleman of the empire? Is this the just and holy eternal church…”

She suddenly laughed.
