Magic Journey from Hogwarts

"She will not go alone." Susan stood up, "I will go with her, and we will definitely find Aslan back."

"We've already had enough dead." Chumbkin looked at Lucy dejectedly, "You don't need to take risks."

"Nicabri was my friend, but he lost hope." Troff said, "But Queen Lucy didn't, and neither did I. We believed in the existence of Aslan from beginning to end."

Reepicheep drew his sword and made a standard knight's salute, "For Aslan."

Chuan Pujin was silent for a moment, "Then I will go with you."

"No, we need you to stay here," said Lucy. "You must hold on until we find Aslan."

"Let's prepare for the negotiation first!" Aaron looked at Caspian. "You know Miraz best. You write the challenge and try to make it impossible for him to refuse."

"Okay, no problem." Caspian said to himself, the more high-end, majestic, and classy the challenge letter was written, the more Miraz, as the king, would be unable to refuse in front of everyone.

"Lucy, leave your bottle."

Lucy subconsciously covered her medicine bottle, and asked a little puzzled, "What's the reason again this time?"

"Peter's life-and-death duel, it's not too much to prepare some healing things in advance!"

Hearing this, Lucy looked at Peter worriedly, and took off the red medicine bottle on her waist.

"I hope you don't need it."

Peter gave her a comforting smile and didn't say much.

It's impossible to use less than that. His and Miraz's swordsmanship levels should be about the same, and injuries are inevitable.

But with this medicine bottle, the odds of winning can be increased to at least [-]%.

Two hours later, Edmond, who had changed into a suit of armor, took the letter of challenge, and accompanied by Aaron, went down to the camp of the Tammorians.

"Why should I follow you here?" Aaron asked depressed.

"In case the talk falls apart, you can at least bring me out." Edmond said firmly.

The corner of Aaron's mouth twitched, "Believe me, the effect will be better if you bring a team."

"The men and horses are good, but they can't stop their archers.

But you are different. Your fighting power is obvious to all. If you go to Miraz with me, even if you refuse to challenge, nothing will happen to us. "

Aaron:  …

"It's a bit like pretending to be a tiger, but I have to admit that you have a good vision.

I will try my best to cooperate with you later. I also have some experience in negotiation. "

The two came to the Tamo people's camp and directly reported their identities as the envoys.

The vigilant soldiers did not dare to neglect, and immediately asked people to report to the king.

After a while, the two soldiers turned back and took them to the temporary king's tent.

Miraz sat proudly on the main seat. On his left and right sides were General Sopi, Council Elder Pusuppi, and the other seats were also general-level figures.

He looked at Edmund standing below playfully, like watching a monkey.

But when he set his eyes on the cynical Aaron, the playfulness was instantly replaced by vigilance.

"You...are here to surrender?" Miraz asked with a smile.

He had a certain understanding of the Narnia people, their nobility would not allow them to surrender to the enemy, and the reason for asking this was just to kill their spirit.

Negotiate!Leadership is still important.

"Pfft!" Aaron couldn't help laughing, "I'm sorry, Mr. Miraz..."

"King," Miraz said emphatically, "I am the king now."

"Okay, King Miraz." Aaron said indifferently, "I have also received professional training, no matter how funny it is, I will not laugh unless I can't help it."

"what do you mean?"

Aaron pointed to Edmund, "Read it to them, otherwise His Majesty the king will think we are easy to bully!"

Edmund pretended to be calm, then unfolded a scroll, and read in a straight voice: "I, Peter, have been ordered and appointed by Aslan, King of Narnia, Lord Kerparavill and Emperor of Silent Island.

Bloodshed is inevitable, so I hereby challenge the usurper, Miraz, to a contest of martial arts. The contest takes life as the bet, and the reward is the complete surrender of the loser. "

"Tell me, Prince Edmond." Miraz said lightly.

"King." Edmund reminded.

"What did you say?"

"It's actually King Edmund, though Peter is the real king.

I know, it's actually kind of messy. "

"Ancient Narnia was ruled by four kings, Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, but Peter was the eldest of the four kings." Aaron explained.

"Yes, that's what I want to say."

"Okay! Edmond...King." Miraz reluctantly accepted this explanation, and said indifferently: "Our army can annihilate you in one fell swoop, why should I risk accepting this proposal."

"I also said it's just a fight to the death." Aaron said with some dissatisfaction, "We may not lose."

"Pretentious." Miraz looked at Aaron suspiciously, with a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth, "If you really have the confidence, you won't wait for us to attack."

"Did you underestimate our numbers?" Edmund laughed. "There was no Narnia a week ago!"

"Now you just wait for it to disappear!" Miraz said coldly.

"If you don't dare, don't dare. You are scaring someone so harshly." Aaron mocked unceremoniously, "But I also understand that King Miraz is over 30 years old after all, and he is a little older than a young warrior. It’s not right to bully the weak, it’s not right to bully the weak, it should be said that boxing is afraid of the young.”

When Miraz heard this, several black lines appeared on his forehead, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's not a matter of daring or not."

"Didn't you refuse?"

"I didn't say no." Miraz paused, but before he finished speaking, a general beside him blocked what he wanted to say.

"We support your Majesty, whatever your decision."

"Your Majesty, our military superiority is the most sufficient reason." Pusupi chimed in, "It is completely possible to avoid unnecessary..."

Hearing this, Miraz's eyes widened in astonishment.

What do you mean by saying this?Put pressure on him?If you don't accept the challenge, you really dare not.

Miraz immediately drew out his long sword, looked at Pusupi fiercely and said, "I didn't want to avoid anything."

"I just want to point out that His Majesty has the right to refuse a martial arts competition." Pusupie said confidently but in a strange way.

"Your Majesty will never refuse," said General Thorpy suddenly. "He likes to take the opportunity to show the people the courage of the new king."

Miraz was stunned immediately, he was clearly the king, yet he was completely beaten down by his courtiers with just a few words.

He felt that there might be traitors in his team, but these people were thinking of him inside and out, and they couldn't find anything wrong at all.

After a few seconds of silence, he pointed his sword at Edmund, "You better hope your brother's sword is sharper than his pen."

In order to prevent Miraz from seeing the flaw, Edmund has kept a constant smile since he entered.

Now that Miraz agreed to the duel, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and the stiff expression on his face almost didn't stop.

"What a pity." Aaron smacked his lips regretfully, "How can you accept it?"

"You should be secretly happy now!" Miraz almost laughed angrily.

"Really not." Aaron shook his head solemnly, "If Peter wasn't worried about hurting both sides and wanted to find a gentle solution to the problem, I wouldn't have come here at all.

I thought just now that it would be fine if you refused, and that it would be fair and aboveboard to fight a battle openly. "

"It's cheap and good-looking!

I have agreed to the duel request, what else do you want? "

"Nonsense, in my opinion this duel is meaningless at all.

If Peter loses, he will definitely die, but the remaining Narnians may not surrender, and if you lose, you may be lucky enough to survive, but after you are safe, you may sound the horn of attack immediately.

In short, no one will abide by the rules of the contract. "Aaron said solemnly, his eyes swept over everyone in the camp, and they all looked elsewhere subconsciously.

"Then you still dare to come?" Miraz asked in surprise.

"The hope is slim, but we have to give it a try!" Aaron said helplessly, "This is Peter's idea, and it has nothing to do with me.

My idea is simpler. It doesn't matter if the duel is unavoidable. It's also good to liven up the atmosphere before the official battle.

If the king can be beheaded, the morale of one's own side will be greatly increased, and the chance of winning will be increased by [-]%.

Of course this is the same for you too. "

The corner of Miraz's mouth twitched slightly, and he wanted to cry in his heart.

Peter really needs a duel to boost his morale, but he doesn't need it. The army will be stable if the army presses past it.

But now that he has agreed to a duel in front of so many people, he, the newly enthroned king, can't go back on his word.

If he wins, it doesn't matter to him, but if he loses, it's a big joke. His throne is not secure yet, and his life is about to die.

"Let's set a time!" Aaron suggested, "Tamor's army set up camp this morning, and the entire army hasn't rested yet.

I don't take advantage of you, how about setting the time at this time tomorrow? "

"Okay." Miraz immediately agreed without doubting him.

When the two of them got out of the camp, Edmond's legs went limp, and he almost staggered and fell to the ground.

"Scared me.

What you said is a bit aggressive, aren't you afraid that Miraz will overturn the table? "

"He won't." The old god Aaron said, "At the beginning of the negotiation, the distance between me and him was less than ten meters. My force value is still threatening to ordinary people, as long as it doesn't make him too If it's too embarrassing, he won't act rashly.

Although I used a little provocative method in the middle, it was the generals and council elders of the Tamo people who really forced him to make a choice. This wave of backstabbing will definitely make him doubt his life.

In the end, the truth can sometimes be more bluffing than a lie.

I have made the meaning and value of the life-and-death duel clear, and he will never think that we are delaying time. "

Edmund was also speechless when he heard the words.

But soon his face was filled with a relaxed smile, "Originally, I just wanted to postpone it until the afternoon, but you pushed it directly to tomorrow, which can be regarded as overfulfilling the task."

"That's not important. The important thing is that Miraz's current throne is unstable." Aaron frowned slightly, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that refusing to challenge is the best choice, but there are actually three people fighting in his camp. He was forced to agree, which is a bit abnormal."

"It... shouldn't matter, right?" Edmund said a little unconfidently.

"maybe!

But the struggle for power is often endless.

From the current point of view, Caspian lost to Miraz, but who can guarantee that others will not covet the throne!

It is in a way a small miracle that you four, four brothers, have ruled Narnia for so many years and lived in harmony. "

Edmund froze for a moment, then scratched his head in confusion, "It's really complicated.

But it has nothing to do with us, and the decisive battle between the Tammorians and Narnia is about to begin, even if they want to fight among themselves, they should wait for the war to end. "

"It is."

After walking a long way, the two returned to the bunker.

Caspian immediately leaned forward. "Well? He agreed, didn't he?"

"Of course, there's nothing that can be done if King Edmund goes out in person." Edmond said triumphantly, "Not only did we agree, but we also postponed the duel until noon tomorrow."

"Great." Peter clapped his hands, and said a little excitedly, "It's okay to dig a tunnel, but it's not easy to get all those inflammables. It's not easy to be found under the cover of night."

"We'll set off in the afternoon." Susan said seriously. Although Lucy had a certain degree of confidence in finding Aslan, she would have more hope if she set off earlier.

Caspian nodded slightly, and led Lucy and Susan to a black horse.

"Desiqi is a horse that is good at fighting and has always taken good care of me. He will work hand in hand with you."

"Hand in hand?" Lucy laughed, "Horses should be hooves!"

Caspian smiled helplessly, and helped the two of them onto the horseback.

He looked at Susan and was silent for a few seconds, "Good luck."

"Thanks."

"This." Caspian took out the magic horn, "maybe it should be returned to its original owner."

"Why don't you keep it?" Susan said. "You may need to find me again."

Caspian froze for a moment, a blush rose on his face, and he didn't know whether to let go of the hand holding the horn.

"Hmm...I might not come at the right time." Aaron came out of the darkness embarrassingly, and said teasingly, "I interrupted you to confess to each other."

"No." x2.

Caspian and Susan said in unison, but both of them turned their faces away in embarrassment after finishing speaking.

"Tsk tsk tsk! There's nothing wrong with admitting it.

This kind of mutual eye-to-eye situation is quite rare, you should take good care of it. "

"Why do you seem to be very experienced?" Lucy asked curiously.

"If you have one in your family, no, a group of elders who urge you to start a family as soon as possible, and even arrange a blind date before graduation, you will know how difficult it is to find someone you like."

"You're only 15 years old!" Lucy said in surprise.

"Age has never been a problem." Aaron spread his hands, "At least they think so."

"What are you doing here?" asked Caspian.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your girlfriend." Aaron patted him on the shoulder, reached out and took out a silver pistol from the red magic circle, "It's impossible for two girls to go deep in the forest without any weapons to defend themselves, Sue San is a good archer, but Lucy... her dagger could sharpen a pencil in my opinion.

Twelve bullets, save some. "
