After Defeat, the Empress’s Negotiating Chip Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 301

301~ Pursuit!~

For a new class to be birthed, it would inevitably require the Empress to conduct large-scale modifications to the Scarlet Phoenix Nation's policies. This method was inherently unreasonable.

In the history of her previous life, there fundamentally wasn't a single class that could truly be birthed through policy. All were birthed through revolution. And if the Empress wanted to go against the grain, there would inevitably be numerous obstacles.

In any case, the Little Princess herself wasn't too optimistic. Wanting to directly pinch out a new class was too difficult. Moreover, this class in her previous life had even opposed imperial power, right?

The capitalist class. The Empress wanted to manually birth this class...... The difficulty was already no less than ascending to heaven.

She'd rather believe pigs could climb trees than believe the Empress could manually birth the capitalist class.

"Alright, then I'll go back and research it."

The Empress took back the weapon, planning to return to the Little Princess's bedchamber to properly research the Little Princess's notebook.

However, the Little Princess herself held no hope for this.

If the Empress really managed to create the capitalist class, then she'd inevitably directly throw herself into the capitalist class's embrace!

Being the Empress of the Scarlet Phoenix Nation's Imperial Consort was too lame! If she was going to be something, she'd be the leader within the capitalist class! Directly turn the capitalist class into the proletariat class, okay!

"Then Princess, will you go research together with the Empress?"

"What would I research?"

The Little Princess tilted her mouth.

She had no plans. She was just providing the Empress with a line of thought. As for whether she could implement this line of thought, it depended on whether the Empress had that heaven-defying ability.

Moreover, she herself fundamentally couldn't write everything in that notebook. She didn't have that ability. She could only write some general things, things with relatively similar meanings.

"Let's go. We're going to the rear garden!"

If she remembered correctly, that glass had already been repaired by now. The rear garden had also returned to constant temperature.

"Yes, Princess."

Rather than going to research those messy things with the Empress, she'd rather run off to play with Bai Di!

......

......

"Lady Cecilia!"

"What is it?"

Cecilia put down her eye mask, looking toward Red Leaf who came to report.

"Lady Cecilia, we've found the whereabouts of that previous dynasty remnant, Lin!"

"If you found him, you found him."

She thought it was something important!

Cecilia pulled down the eye mask again, planning to continue sleeping.

"Lady Cecilia, don't you plan to go resolve that guy?"

"Do you think in my current state I still have the energy to resolve him?"

If she could go, she would have gone long ago, okay?

Right now, it was precisely because her Magic Power still hadn't recovered to half, and she'd also been exhausted to death these past few days, which was why she was resting. Now you're telling her that before rest time has even ended, she has to go back to work? That's completely impossible! She'd be the first to jump out in opposition!

"But Lady Ling's side has already gone to pursue!"

"Huh?"

Cecilia blinked. She hadn't expected Ling to be so fierce, actually pursuing alone.

Relying on that Holy Sword that Severs Steel, with other people providing Magic Power, Lin could go fifty-fifty with a Great Archmage. This was also why Lin had such confidence attempting to come kill her.

Ling should have also been present at the time, knowing what the situation was. Yet she actually dared pursue Lin, who possessed the Holy Sword that Severs Steel, alone? Did she really not want her life!?

However, no matter what, Ling was personally taught by her. Of course, she couldn't possibly watch Ling go to her death. So she definitely also had to follow and pursue.

Really! Causing her trouble for no reason!

After this Great Purge ended, she definitely had to severely spank Ling's butt.

In any case, when the Empress blamed them later, she herself definitely wouldn't care. The Empress also had no way to deal with her. Ling and Red Leaf would definitely be severely punished by the Empress. At that time, they might even receive corporal punishment, directly beaten until they couldn't get out of bed for an entire day.

At that time, she could take the opportunity to go over and spank Ling's butt again!

Actually daring to make her work overtime? Even daring to pit her own mentor like this?

She'd clearly already said that Lin had been marked by her. After she completely recovered in a few days, she could directly go capture him. Yet this Ling just wouldn't listen!

"Red Leaf, let's go."

After casually taking out a potion from her Magic Storage Ring and pouring it into her stomach, Cecilia said.

"Yes."

......

After flying in the air for quite a while, the two finally arrived at the place Red Leaf indicated, which was Lin's location.

Quickly using Magic Power to detect, this time Lin didn't have a whole bunch of mages following him. Rather, he only brought two Archmages.

She estimated that last time too many of the previous dynasty remnants' mages who came to the City Lord's manor were resolved by her in one go, injuring his foundation.

At that time, she remembered there were roughly nearly twenty mages. And among them, those who reached Archmage level totaled thirteen.

Thirteen Archmages really already wasn't a small number. The first condition for entering the Scarlet Maid Corps was to reach Archmage level, yet the entire Scarlet Maid Corps only had a bit over forty people.

The number of Archmages added together from those previous dynasty remnants and reactionary forces already counted as a behemoth within all of the Scarlet Phoenix Nation's territory.

Even all the Archmages raised in noble households within the Scarlet Phoenix Nation's territory totaled only around ten.

"Lady Cecilia, Lady Ling doesn't seem to have started fighting with them yet. Do you need me to call Lady Ling back first?"

"No need."

With only three Archmages plus one Holy Sword that Severs Steel, she felt she could do it.

Those two Archmages could be handed to the Maid Ling and Scarlet Maid Corps Head Maid Red Leaf. That Lin, she'd personally resolve him.

"Let's go. Let's help Ling."

"Help...... Lady Cecilia, haven't you not recovered yet?"

Hearing this, Cecilia only stuck out her tongue to deflect, reconsidered the strategy, then issued orders to Red Leaf.

"In a bit, I'll first resolve that Archmage on the left. You just follow beside Ling. After I resolve that Archmage, you and Ling go up together."

"Red Leaf understands."

The plan unfolded just like this. After Red Leaf was in position, Cecilia compressed Magic Power at her fingertip, aiming at the Archmage on the left.

The reason for not directly blasting all three at once was that Holy Sword that Severs Steel, that weapon that was almost like a bug. It could forcibly withstand her full-powered strike.

Explosion Magic...... Super Downgraded Version!

This was a low-tier version of Explosion Magic she'd modified to reduce Magic Power input. While lowering Magic Power consumption, the power had also drastically declined considerably.

"Boom......!"

Following Cecilia using the beggar version of Explosion Magic to instantly resolve one mage, before the other two could even react, Red Leaf and Ling directly charged out, using magic to restrain the other Archmage.

And Cecilia directly used Chant Reduction to conduct high-speed indiscriminate magical bombardment on Lin.
