And against Ainz Ooal Gown’s methods, who in your Church nation could possibly withstand their assassinations?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Nigen’s baseless excuse, the captain of the “Black Scripture” fell silent after a moment of thought, saying nothing further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because if they sent the Church nation’s Six Sacred Scriptures’ highest priests to such a dangerous post, those cowardly old bastards would surely refuse to take such risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, after the conference of nations ended, Gilknifer detained Shengzai, who was preparing to leave, and proposed a marriage alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the marriage partner Gilknifer proposed was not Shengzai himself, but the Kingdom’s “Golden Princess” Lana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the prior agreement, if they successfully repelled Ainz Ooal Gown and the Magic Nation, the Bahas Empire would become a vassal state of the Kingdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Gilknifer, the Emperor, would become Duke Gilknifer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To prevent further erosion of his power and to strengthen ties with the Kingdom, ensuring the Kingdom felt more secure about him, Gilknifer, after much deliberation, settled on the solution: marrying the Kingdom’s Golden Princess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even as a vassal state, a ruling duke with authority over a duchy marrying a Kingdom princess would still be more than adequate in status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The “Golden Princess” is renowned for her wisdom and is indeed a suitable partner to bear outstanding offspring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Gilknifer’s primary reason for choosing the “Golden Princess” was that Lana was Shengzai’s sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gilknifer had heard rumors that although Shengzai and Princess Lana were not blood siblings, their bond within the royal family was the strongest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the former Second Prince Zanak has become the new king, and Shengzai has become king of the subhuman nations,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one understands better than Gilknifer how brutal royal family rivalries can be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Zanak and Shengzai now appearing as affectionate brothers, once Zanak learns the true strength of the subhuman nations, he will inevitably grow wary, even fearful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And often, the cracks of distrust expand precisely through such growing suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the Kingdom and Shengzai fall out, my opportunity will arrive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the status of “brother-in-law” to Shengzai, and with Lana’s close ties to Prince Shengzai, I could stand with Shengzai against the Kingdom—wouldn’t Shengzai help me restore the Empire’s independence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What? You ask why not side with Zanak, since he’s the legitimate heir?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s because Gilknifer believes Zanak is no match for Shengzai at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In personal strength, tactics, strategy, and the power under his command—what does the Kingdom or Zanak have to challenge Shengzai with?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the Kingdom truly breaks with Shengzai, he wouldn’t need Gilknifer to pick a side—Shengzai could crush them himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Gilknifer? He simply wants to win by resting on Lana’s connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You want to marry Lana?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with Gilknifer’s request, Shengzai was stunned—he had never anticipated such a development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is there something inappropriate? Does Your Highness think I’m unworthy of the ‘Golden Princess’?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not that—it’s just that this marriage proposal depends on Lana’s own wishes…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, Shengzai believed Gilknifer had no chance, because if he remembered correctly, the yandere girl was pathologically in love with her guard, Kelaimu .\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Gilknifer was talented and handsome, Lana simply didn’t like his type…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shengzai also felt a pang of sympathy for Gilknifer—he’d heard how the man had once sought to marry the Holy Princess of the Holy Kingdom, only to be rejected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he’s trying to marry Lana, and he’ll likely be rejected again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First rejected by the Holy Kingdom’s Holy Princess, now rejected by the Kingdom’s “Golden Princess”—Shengzai worried this guy might develop some terrible rumors from being turned down twice in a row.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Majesty, Lana’s personality may not suit you. With your qualifications…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shengzai actually admired the Blood Emperor, and it was because of him, this little butterfly, that the Empire had become the Kingdom’s scapegoat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To make him carry the blame, then push him into another pit—Shengzai couldn’t help but feel guilty, so he was about to offer some advice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could finish speaking, Gilknifer interrupted: “Prince Shengzai, I understand your meaning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But as a member of the royal family, one’s marriage is rarely one’s own to decide.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Love—I’ve long since given up on such things. My entire life has been devoted to this nation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gilknifer assumed Shengzai had seen through his intentions, hence his attempt to dissuade him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Gilknifer himself, who his marriage partner was no longer mattered—what mattered was whether his marriage could bring benefit to the Empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Gilknifer’s resolute tone, Shengzai’s bewildered expression froze on his face; finally, he sighed softly and turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t dissuade him. Not at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this guy was determined to ruin himself, what could he do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Kingdom of R. Yestijie, after the Magic Nation’s envoy team led by Yar Beide  arrived at the capital Tiel, Zanak held a banquet to honor them, showing respect for the Magic Nation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the banquet, the Kingdom’s nobles, previously suppressed by Zanak and Shengzai, flocked to flatter Yar Beide  as if reborn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason was twofold: first, Yar Beide  herself was extraordinarily beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, and more importantly, Yar Beide  held a position in the Magic Nation equivalent to that of chancellor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Kingdom’s nobles might not fully understand what kind of nation the Magic Nation was, but its power was unquestionable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the Empire that had been declared war upon was recently in a panic, desperately seeking aid from other nations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This proved that the Bahas Empire itself knew it could not possibly defeat the Magic Nation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is the Bahas Empire weak? Ridiculous—it had fought the Kingdom for years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Kingdom equals the Empire, and the Magic Nation is greater than the Empire—so by that calculation, isn’t the Magic Nation also stronger than the Kingdom?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1080,"2026-06-19T15:18:35.208Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","45868735be26810a2c4d10e614d088e452fb53a89df45153f2628fb592f375c2","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-off-invinc-chapter-568","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-off-invinc-chapter-566",587,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsimultaneously-transmigrated-starting-off-invinc-cover.jpg"]
