Chapter 50 The Bloody End of Agrinion

"Do you think those rogue people who are crazy about hunger will tear you into pieces and swallow them in their stomachs?" Musvar smiled wickedly, and these words made Romanus Ducasse shudder. He was very worried.

His mother told him this story when he was a child. The tyrant Andronikos and his son were torn to pieces by the angry citizens of Constantinople because he hit a mute old man in the lower city with a stone.

As he grew older, Romanus already knew that it was never a story, but a fact that really happened. The current tense atmosphere in Agrinon made him feel that the civil uprising only happened in an instant. But the initiator of everything

, but this Saracen didn't take it to heart at all. After all, the nominal owner of this city is Romanus.

The young noble with a chill in his heart could not refute what Muswar said. Perhaps those liberated barbarian slaves would really be more useful.

"Then...Okay! That's all it can do. So what's the second point you said?" Romanus, who agreed to Musvar's proposal, continued to ask.

What the Saracen man said next made him immediately gasp, because Muswar's second plan turned out to be far crazier than the first.

"We have no time to waste looking for Princess Agelina and His Highness Irina. The only place they can hide is in the city between Third Street and Fourth Street. Searching one by one will sooner or later make them escape.

Out of Agrinion. I can't think of a better way than to completely level that block." Musvar said this without any pause, as if destroying a street was just a matter of time in his eyes.

A commonplace thing.

"But there are thousands of people living there. Killing them like that? This is too crazy." Looking at the man in front of him who was his teacher in disbelief, Romanus trembled in his heart. In order to achieve his goal,

He can achieve this goal by any means.

"I have already said it. There is nothing that cannot be done. As long as it is necessary for profit. Even if it is done by any means, as long as it is completed. You are still so naive, Romanus. Think about those mobs, they will never

They are just pitiful on the surface. But in fact, they are greedier than anyone else. As long as there is an advantage, they will definitely take it. As long as there is danger, they will definitely hide faster than anyone else. When they are hungry, they cry anger

Confide to you. And when they are full

When you have enough to drink, how can I even give you a little gratitude?" Muswar said disdainfully, "We still can't find their whereabouts after such a long time. There is only one possibility, and that is that they have been harbored by others.

. There is no time for us to hesitate. If the princess and her daughter fall into the hands of Justinian, then the princes of the entire Thessaly will have a reason to launch an attack. I am afraid that Agrinion will usher in

Master, the inhabitants of those streets will spit on your grave."

At this point, Musvar's words completely hit the pain in Romanus' heart. The young noble hesitated for a while, he seemed to be struggling and thinking. But in the end he made a decision, despite all his disgust

, but he still acquiesced to Muswar's suggestion.

"Then what do you want to do?" This is not an easy task. Raising a butcher's knife to thousands of people blatantly could cause riots that could overturn the entire city.

But Muswar had already had an idea in mind, "It's very simple. I have long been thinking that those messy slums need to be repaired and repaired. Maybe a fire can tidy up our city appearance. A great city will always be

Rebuild upon the ruins, be it Rome or Constantinople, Damascus or Baghdad. May our eternally beautiful Agrinion be reborn in the fire."

The Saracen man looked at the map of the city behind him, ran his fingers over the vulgar names of the streets and alleys on it, and said elegantly.

But the cruel words he said in such a tone made Romanus feel sick, "But with so many people taking action, people will definitely notice it..."

"What are you afraid of? Those guys in the slums must be going crazy with hunger now. I think at this time, send someone to distribute some relief food. They will be overjoyed, so that even if the army is mobilized, no one will doubt it. As for the person responsible for doing it, I

The pagans on the Genoese ship are very suitable. What do you think, His Highness Romanus?" Musvar's plan was so sinister and vicious that no one could guard against it. This made Romanus, who had been studying with him for several years, even more worried.

Didn't expect that.

Seeing his student's shocked expression, Muswar also guessed what the other student was thinking, and then said: "Don't be too surprised. In this short period of time, you have to learn far more than what I taught you before.

. Since you have chosen to become a superior, never question how dirty the means will be in order to achieve your own goals. You have already taken the first step, and all you need now is to adapt."

"Enough!"

Romanus finally couldn't listen to the Saracen man's words. He seemed to have no strength to say anything anymore. He just said lightly: "Is there anything else you need to discuss with me about the rest of the matter? The actual master of this city

It's just you. But it's me who bears the bad reputation. Only Nero can do such a thing." It seems that Romanus has had enough of everything. Romanus has had enough of the reality of becoming the other party's puppet, but the following words of the other party

But it instantly hit the most vulnerable place in this young noble's heart.

"Having said that, from the beginning to the end, Your Highness Romanus, you did not oppose me." Musvar said with a half-smile. "This is why I chose you to be my student. In fact, the two of us

Individuals are the real road warriors - they will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals! You feel inferior for your own identity. So, you need to prove yourself. But this road is bound to be extremely difficult, so the result is nothing compared to

They are all important, and you understand this better than anyone else."

After saying that, Musvar sat back on the throne again, his eyes as cold as steel. He was looking at Romanus who was meditating below, waiting for his reaction, but this time Romanus was not as emotional as before, but this time

Playing into Muswar's hands - he understood that his student was shaken. Then this devil-like Saracen made a very tempting proposal while the iron was hot.

"If you are willing to personally lead the team to prove yourself, then I will return the ownership of this city to you. Because as long as you can take that step, you will prove that you are a qualified His Majesty Mikhail

The successor. Are you willing? His Highness Romanus."
