Chapter 77 The Eagle and the Fox

Siwok VII, 19 years old this year.

This is his fifth year as Emperor of Siwok.

Five years ago, he was only 14 years old when he became the seventh emperor of Siwok.

At that time, he was ignorant and ignorant.

Now?

He also looked childish.

Even wearing a dark dress that looks very old-fashioned, it can't hide the disadvantage of age.

Siwok VII knew this.

Therefore, he kept a straight face.

Try to use emotions to make up for this disadvantage.

Especially when he saw his uncle, Siwok VII's face seemed completely frozen.

"Uncle, good evening."

Siwok VII said coldly.

"Good evening, little Walker."

Prince Ruitai greeted with a smile.

With this smile, he wore a military uniform and was full of iron-blooded aura. He was tough and kind-hearted, but the sharpness in his eyes did not diminish at all, but became sharper.

It's like an unsheathed sword.

It seemed that the next moment, it would pierce the heart of Siwok VII.

pressure!

The same pressure as before!

The young Siwok VII managed to resist.

As the emperor of Siwok, Siwok VII completed the 'Extraordinary Baptism' early on, and even became a 'professional'.

Moreover, using the secrets of the West Walker royal family, a variant of the profession of 'knight' was appointed as 'lord'.

At this moment, it has reached the third level.

However, facing the fifth-level Prince Ruitai is still not enough.

Sweat suddenly overflowed from his forehead.

Run down the cheeks.

Prince Ruitai seemed to appreciate the scene in front of him, so he increased the pressure little by little. Siwok VII persisted, sweating more and more.

Just when Siwok VII was shaking and about to make a fool of himself, a figure stood in front of Siwok VII.

This is a neatly groomed middle-aged man.

The clothes are not formal dresses or military uniforms, but robes.

However, it is not a robe in the traditional sense, but one that has been modified on the shoulders and waist. It looks like a robe, but it will not get in the way when walking. Moreover, there is a hood to hide the face.

At this time, the hood is down.

The middle-aged man's face showed anger.

"Your Highness, please stop."

The middle-aged man in front of him stopped Prince Ruitai's behavior.

"oh."

Prince Ruitai lengthened his tone and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. The pressure he had just exerted on Siwok VII immediately fell on the middle-aged man in front of him.

It is no longer a little bit of increase, but an instantaneous increase.

and,

nothing left!

Roar!

Amidst the low dragon roar, the middle-aged man who stood in front of Siwok VII suddenly turned pale. After shaking his body, he stumbled to the ground.

"Consultant Hofklo, you seem to be in poor health. You must pay attention."

Looking at the middle-aged consultant who fell to the ground, Prince Ruitai showed concern hypocritically.

"you!"

Siwok VII glared at his uncle angrily, but before he could finish his words, Hofkro grabbed his hand.

The huge force suddenly brought Siwok VII back to his senses.

He stopped talking.

His eyes were full of unwillingness.

The pale Hofkro managed to stand up.

"I have been dealing with what happened in Lorde recently and haven't had a good rest. Thank you for your concern, His Royal Highness."

Hoffcrow responded like this.

Prince Ruitai frowned slightly.

Siwok VII on the side was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed pride, and his eyes also showed joy.

This was the first time since he became emperor that he had gained a real upper hand in a confrontation with his uncle.

It's really an unexpected surprise.

Siwok VII did not expect that such a turn of events would happen in Lord.

Originally, he thought that there was only a high-level professional like 'Sir Beta' in Lord who was worth winning over.

However, what he didn't expect was that the successor of the old knight would bring him such a big surprise.

Originally, he wanted to move the other person to his side immediately.

Especially after learning from the secret message from Salmon that the other party had three professions: 'Night Watch', 'Knight', and 'Grave Keeper', and had killed Paschan on the outskirts of Lod, and then, on the special train

When he killed Dahler, Peters, and Holdak last time, his eager solicitation even made him jump up from the training ground.

But, in the end, he gave up.

His advisor, Hofcrow, asked the most direct questions

Are you ready for war with Prince Shwetai?

This question stunned the young Siwok VII.

Going to war with his uncle?

He's always wanted to do this.

But, it can't be done.

Since he succeeded to the throne, he has been suppressed by his uncle. If it were not for the support of advisors such as Hofcrow, the throne might have been lost.

But even with the help of consultants such as Hofkro, they can only barely maintain the current situation.

Soldiers and soldiers across the country are all his uncle's supporters.

Among soldiers, especially those at the middle and lower levels, his uncle even had the right to speak out.

And him?

It is considered a flower from a greenhouse.

Even if he has almost slept in the training ground for the past five years, it is useless.

His voice could not be heard in the military camp.

So, he knew he couldn't start a war.

At least not now!

So, he chose to give up.

Therefore, he chose to suppress it.

Abandoned the unexpected appearance of Jason.

Suppressing the urgent solicitation in my heart.

It's very uncomfortable to do this.

However, his advisor Hofkro told him that this was what an emperor must experience.

He believed in Hofcrow.

He must be patient.

However, although in order to avoid a war with his uncle, he had to give up and be patient, but on this basis, he could see his uncle being embarrassed.

and……

Maybe, that Jason can even create a 'miracle'!

'No need for that Jason to do much!'

'As long as the prince gets hurt!'

‘Even if it’s a minor injury! It can break the prince’s myth of the ‘Invulnerable God of War’!’

'At that time, we can exert our strength!'

This is what Hofcrow told him.

He was full of expectations.

Therefore, he came.

Arrive at Terte train station.

Standing on this platform.

Siwok VII believed that his uncle had not yet received the exact message.

He didn't know that Dalle, whom he had trained as a 'Shadow Warrior', was dead.

I didn't know that Peters, who was relied upon, was also dead.

Not to mention that Hordak, who was a typical example of bribing junior officers and soldiers, was also dead.

I really want to see what my uncle looked like at that time!

Thankfully, this is happening soon.

Siwok VII, when he thought of this, his mood suddenly became better.

The face that had always been tense could no longer remain tense.

Instead, the corners of the mouth turned up.

He showed the smile that a half-grown young man should have.

It wasn't until his advisor Hofkro coughed that the young emperor stopped smiling.

Prince Ruitai looked at this scene and said nothing.

It's just that the breath is getting stronger.

The people around me didn't dare to breathe.

The conversation is over at this point.

There was no surprise to the people around him.

In the past five years, every encounter between the two parties has been like this.

Just a few sentences.

Tit for tat.

King Siwok VII and Prince Reitai stood side by side on the platform, with only one step away from them.

But this one step away is like a natural chasm.

It completely separated the two people.

Time passes minute by minute.

When it gets completely dark, in the distance

Woo!

The whistle sounded.

Everyone who had been waiting was refreshed.

The young Siwok VII couldn't wait to take a small step forward.

Finally, after coming back to his senses, he could hold back.

Prince Ruitai, on the other hand, was indifferent.

Close.

Closer.

Finally, the 'Royal Train' stopped at the edge of the platform.

Click!

The car door opens!

Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to it.

Salmon came down.

The officially designated person in charge of Lord's "mysterious side" looked a little strange, and he looked a little lost.

Siwok VII noticed this.

However, he still stepped forward.

"I have met His Majesty."

Salmon took one knee and saluted.

The young emperor glanced at the carriage behind him, and when he found that no one was getting out, he frowned and lowered his voice and asked, "What happened?"

"Sir Jason is missing."

"I was knocked unconscious."

"When I woke up, Sir Jason was gone."

Salmon answered truthfully.

Siwok VII, who had been waiting for a long time, took a deep breath.

Although it didn't show on his face, there was disappointment in his eyes.

However, Siwok VII did not complain about Salmen.

He raised his hand and patted Salmon on the shoulder.

"Get up."

"Do not blame you."

Siwok VII said this.

"His Majesty!"

Salmon lowered his head in shame, and at this time Prince Ruitai came over.

"Dahler, Peters, Holdak."

A person next to him who looked like a messenger shouted loudly.

However, there was no response.

Prince Ruitai's face darkened.

The prince obviously guessed what happened.

"very good."

"Good job."

Prince Ruitai said.

"Uncle, your advice is meritorious."

Siwok VII responded like this.

It can be called a sarcasm, but it can also be called a refutation.

Prince Ruitai stopped and looked at his nephew.

"Little Walker, it seems that you have really grown up."

Prince Ruitai narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Um."

"Just like you, uncle, are growing old."

The young emperor nodded and retorted in a low voice.

Only two people could hear the conversation between the two. The people around them, including Samen, had already retreated far away when Prince Ruitai came.

Prince Reitai looked at Siwok VII.

After a full four or five seconds, he continued.

"good."

It's not like being polite.

It's not like it's perfunctory.

Instead, it feels a bit like a compliment.

But Siwok VII frowned.

Anyone could praise him, but Prince Shwetai could not.

What does he want to do?

Siwok VII was thinking in his heart, and when he wanted to say another word, Prince Ruitai turned around and left.

Seeing the retreating figures of Prince Ruitai and his entourage, Siwok VII frowned and subconsciously looked at his advisor. When Hofkro signaled to leave, the little emperor stepped away.

An expected battle did not happen.

It can even be said to be anticlimactic.

This makes the people and forces who have been paying attention here a little disappointed.

At the same time, a doubt also arises in the hearts of these people and forces.

Where did Jason go?



"Jason where are we going?"

Taniel, who was still walking on the streets of Terte in a familiar manner, wearing a fake beard and wig, whispered to Jason, who was also disguised next to him.

Compared with his previous height, which was far above the average person, Jason at this time was completely the height of an ordinary person.

Coupled with the concealment of the fake beard and wig, the whole person looks ordinary and not conspicuous at all.

The additional proficiency of Master Level [Unarmed Combat] [Bone Shrinking] easily allowed Jason to reach this point, which surprised Taniel, who had seen a similar secret skill for the first time.

However, compared to [Shrinking Bones], Taniel is more curious about where the two of them are going now.

After a short rest before, Jason knocked Samen unconscious.

Taniel even fed Salmon some medicine.

That's a potion that makes people sleepy.

Tenniel controlled the amount and hoped that Salmen could sleep a little longer.

After doing this, the two told the service staff of the special train that they wanted to take a rest, and then completely closed the train's compartment door.

Then, from the window, the two got out of the car early.

"'House of the Night's Watch'!"

Jason answered.

‘Nightwatch House’?

Taniel was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.

The 'Night Watch House' in Turte is the only gathering point of the 'Night Watch' in West Walker.

He is extremely friendly to every 'Night Watcher'.

I heard that not only accommodation and meals are free, but also help is provided to every "night watchman".

Of course, I'm just trying to help as much as I can.

If it exceeds a certain range, additional charges will be required.

However, even this is enough.

Jason is the ‘night watchman’!

He's Jason's friend!

In total, he’s half a ‘night watchman’!

Unfortunately, he was involved in the fight between the little emperor and Prince Ruitai, so it was a perfect choice to enter the 'Night Watchman's House' to avoid the fight at this time.

After all, even Prince Ruitai would not touch the 'Night Watch House' at will.

Even if the other party knows that they are in the 'Night Watch House', it is the same.

Unless the other party wants to start a war with all the 'Night Watchers'.

Naturally, the other party would not be so unwise.

“Good choice!”

"As expected of you Jason!"

"We can take shelter there temporarily and wait until the storm passes before we leave!"

Taniel praised,

Jason was noncommittal.

He didn't go to the Night Watchman's House to avoid the limelight.

But to further complete his plan.

However, it was naturally impossible to tell Taniel Ming at this time.

It’s not that I don’t want to say it.

But inappropriate.

The place is inappropriate.

The time is not suitable either.

Jason paused in his steps.

Without looking back, he just said calmly

"come out!"
