"May I ask Master Yuri, what on earth is going on here? Was it the work of those guys?"
"No! With the opponent's strength, he can attack without restraint, so why should he be so secretive?"
You must know that the Crown Prince Midas is a glorious knight, and he is only one step away from reaching the peak. Naturally, he can sense that King Fernando of Ogu has fallen.
That look of suspicion only lasted for less than half a second. Prince Midas pointed his head towards Flowing City, the Land of Shadows, or to be precise, Boom and his party. However, Yuri, who was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, did not respond.
, still staring at the hustle and bustle in the royal city.
"Midas, apart from the dead King Ogu, there are only two of you and me here. Let me ask, have you ever doubted that I killed King Ogu, even if you only had that thought?" Yuri asked, his voice unusually calm, as if he was just asking about something insignificant. However, Crown Prince Midas' expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly bowed and saluted, but did not dare to respond.
"Next, I will tell you two things. No matter what decision you make in the future, you must always keep it in mind."
"First, unless you can easily control the worldly giant python brothers and sisters, no matter what other forces do, Aogu King City will always be a friend of Flowing Light City in the Land of Shadows, or we are willing to follow suit."
"Secondly, from now on, you will be the next King of Ogu, King Midas of Ogu. I will send people to inform all parties about this matter. As for how to deal with it next, I think you should be prepared in advance.
That’s it.”
"And I plan to go to the Principality of Knight to bury the ashes of Fernando and Anthony. After all, that is my hometown, not this noisy city of August."
After Yuri said that, regardless of how the other party responded, he turned around and left the palace hall. At this moment, in his storage bag, there were two urns with exactly the same style, as if they were brothers.
In fact, Yuri had seen through Midas as early as ten years ago. He was a young man who was both talented and ambitious. However, he had always hidden it very well, so well that even his two good brothers had not seen him.
Perceived.
Yuri's original plan was to depose Midas as crown prince after everything was over and make one of Fernando's side relatives king.
But now the third brother Fernando has committed suicide, but the eldest brother Anthony has not left any instructions. This puts Yuri in a dilemma, and in the end he had to choose silence.
What's more, Midas is the adopted son of his eldest brother Anthony who was adopted by his third brother Fernando in his early years. It was Yuri who made such a decision. On the surface, it seemed reasonable, but in fact, he entrusted the city of Ogu to a person.
Restless guy.
Looking at the Ogu kings of the past, they may be stupid, irritable, greedy, and despicable. But they have one thing in common, that is, they all know what it means to "be content with the status quo."
And it is precisely because of that "comfort with the status quo" that the Aogu Continent finally came to a situation where the royal city and the nine principalities coexisted, and the population was always prosperous, and it was always the leader of the world.
But since there is no way to compete with a more powerful existence, Yuri feels that it is time to make some changes. In other words, no matter what the ancient continent becomes in the end, it has nothing to do with the frustrated Yuri. The eldest brother Anthony's family is deeply rooted in the royal city, and the third brother Fernando is assisted by his younger brothers in the Knight Principality, as well as many unnamed family members.
Looking back at Yuri, all his direct blood relatives have long since died of illness or old age. However, he himself has never married and had children, and has always been silently guarding the Iron Throne, or in other words, two good brothers.
But now that his two good brothers have died one after another in just half a year, how can he be in the mood to care about the fight for power and gain? As long as the royal city still exists, and as long as Yuri is still alive, then he will naturally do his best.
Guardian, and will not make any decisions other than that.
The next day, the news that King Fernando of Ogu had "passed away due to illness" quickly swept the entire world. Crown Prince Midas succeeded to the throne, sat on the Iron Throne, and accepted the blessings of all the great nobles.
But just after the dinner that day, more than two hundred nobles were secretly executed, which also indicated that King Midas of Ogu had completely taken control of the royal city.
"Accepting the surrender of the four major families and secretly executing the whip-wielder Manuel (Prime Minister) and Frey the Wooden Leg (Minister of Finance), this is far more ruthless than the three of us did back then." p>
"The former trail has long been covered by reeds, but the smell of beast dung has never changed, it is still so pungent and unpleasant."
"I didn't expect that I would become the master of the Mage Tower. Anyway, I don't have anything to worry about anymore, so I might as well concentrate on my hard work and live a life in vain."
Yuri put on a black mage robe, left the royal city alone, and walked towards the northern border of the ancient continent. He still couldn't remember the last time he was so leisurely how many years ago, looking at the vast Miracle Plain,
But I felt relieved.
His only thought now is to send the ashes of the two good brothers to Fata City in the Principality of Knight and give them to Prince Caruso for a good burial.
As for Midas, the new king of Ogu, he was already deeply disappointed. He never shed a tear during the funeral. Compared with sadness, it seemed that Midas was more concerned about the views of the great nobles and various forces on him, or perhaps
Tell me whether you recognize yourself as the new King of Ogu.
Perhaps it was due to the emergence of Flowing Light City, or perhaps it was due to the severe loss of vitality in the Third Holy War. In short, the various forces did not attack the new Ogu King Midas, but they did not show any substantive allegiance.
Performance.
Looking back at the Principality of Knight, after hearing the news of Fernando's death, it was instantly cast into a layer of gloom. The elderly Prince Caruso coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood on the spot and almost died suddenly.
There was no mention of the newly appointed King Midas of August. Prince Caruso only called him the biological son of Anthony and the adopted son of Fernando. The Principality of Nanette will continue to stand on the side of the royal city.
"You need to be more careful in the future. Although they are both kings of Ogu, Midas is far more far-sighted than Fernando, or it should be called 'resourceful'."
"That's it. If you have anything to do from now on, just go to the Mage Tower in the Royal City to find me. Get rid of all those expensive wines. The eldest brother and the third brother liked buying low-quality wine the most before they were alive. I'll say goodbye."
After saying this, Yuri bowed to Prince Caruso, then turned and left. However, Caruso could no longer get up, and all he received in response to Yuri was a more heartbreaking cough.
Although Yuri is not a scholar, he is also a famous great mage and a peak powerhouse. However, he did not heal the opponent, not even a word of advice.
Caruso's illness was caused by anger. First, Boom and his team broke the balance between the various forces, and then made the Principality of Knight surrender in an absolutely unattainable manner. Now his brother Fernando also died suddenly.
, this made him feel relieved, so he developed blood poisoning in his body.
The blood poisoning disease is a terminal disease that no scholar can cure. Only the pure-blood elf queen Nydia, who controls the World Tree, and the blood demon Gloria may be able to cure it.
But those two people have no relationship with the Royal City or the Principality of Knight. The elves also have their own troubles, and Gloria is a devil. Therefore, Prince Caruso can only wait for death now, which may take more than ten years or as short as ten years.
