In the Name of Empress-Chapter 636 - 365: I Must See Her (Part 3)
The art of the ocean and the art of the human world are completely different, yet have similarities.
He could completely understand it.
These water curtain paintings depict the entire process of the Sea Demon People rising from glory to decline, and then rising again.
Every race has its own heroes.
Although Raikkonen couldn't empathize with the Sea Demon People, he held some respect for their heroic figures and epic history.
Seeing the fierce war scenes when the Sea Demon People established the Undersea City, he suddenly stopped and stood at attention, saluting the virtual water curtain paintings.
After a brief pause, he entered the guest hall of the Witch Hall under the maid's guidance.
He finally met the Sea Witch.
Seeing the Sea Witch's slightly rounded belly, Raikkonen suddenly understood, and then was utterly impressed by the old Emperor's ability in this regard.
His Majesty should have gone to feed the fish with the fleet, but instead, he used his outstanding looks and elegant artistic taste to win his chance at life.
Not only did he survive, but he even married the beautiful Sea Witch and became a figure of real power in the Undersea City.
Unexpectedly, the Sea Witch, whom Raikkonen had imagined so intensely, looked at him coldly and said blandly:
"Raikkonen, please tell Roland that Catherine is doing very well. She has her own destiny, so please do not interfere."
Raikkonen shook his head slowly and said softly, "Your Highness Adina, if you encountered an accident, would you want us to treat you the same way?"
Adina's face changed instantly. She glared at Raikkonen coldly, warning him in a chilling voice:
"Raikkonen, if it weren't for Roland's sake, with everything you've done these days, you wouldn't dream of leaving here alive."
Raikkonen shrugged, teasingly smiling, "I've just eaten a bit more, drunk a bit more, gone out to chat with the locals, and enjoyed myself a bit, would that warrant a death sentence?"
Perhaps feeling that these acts were somewhat unscrupulous, he laughed at himself and said, "Okay, it does sound a bit excessive. But can it compare to your cold treatment?"
Raikkonen's actions may seem distasteful, yet they don't count for much; what really crossed the line was collecting intelligence unauthorized.
However, in this era, diplomats basically doubled as intelligence officers, so such things were common. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
But considering Adina knew that Roland was worried about the safety of allies, yet left his envoy aside, that was truly unscrupulous.
Confronted by Raikkonen, Adina's face glowed with a blue hue, and her voice carried a hint of guilt.
"I know what information you want, so I'm helping you inquire. If I don't send anyone, how would you get this information?"
"Thank you, Your Highness the Sea Witch."
Raikkonen suddenly bowed seriously to Adina, leaving her somewhat at a loss on how to respond.
Just as she pondered how to continue, Raikkonen calmly revealed his true intention.
"Your Highness, please arrange for me to go to the Sea Emperor Hall; I must communicate with Catherine face-to-face."
"Outrageous!" Adina erupted in anger.
The Sea Emperor Hall's status among the Ocean Race is second only to the Sea Emperor; they are truly the confidants of the Sea Emperor.
Raikkonen's offense made her slightly displeased.
Unfazed, Raikkonen continued to persist.
"Then please sentence me to death; I can't explain this if I return, better to be dead."
Adina was infuriated by Raikkonen's almost roguish tactics, unwilling to waste words, she asked coldly:
"Do you really want to go? The Sea Emperor Hall has no ties with Roland; they might truly execute you."
Raikkonen remained silent, his gaze firm.
Adina sighed softly, saying wistfully, "Three days later I will attend an important meeting at the Sea Emperor Hall, you will act as my entourage."
