Chapter 411 (2/2)
So, he wanted to find out
“It’s a less question”
Ian opened his mouth slowly
It wasn’t the answer that Oliver wanted
“Who would speak the truth in this situation?”
What he said made sense
He could just lie to him that he will support the crown prince
There was no point to the question
“Whether you speak lies or truth”
However, Oliver wasn’t a fool
He already considered that
However, the reason he was so desperate was,
“I will decide to believe it or not”
Because he saw some possibility from Ian
He concluded that Ian ht support the crown prince
“Well, I don’t know yet”
“I only want a clear answer”
“But I really don’t know”
Ian replied seriously
He never planned to support someone
He didn’t care ould become the next emperor nor about the unity of the continent
He just wanted to interrupt every single plan of Ragnar
And he wanted to take revenge on him at a very critical point
At that point, he ht restore most of his power
Then, he’d just happily live with precious people
“But”
Ian looked at Oliver’s eyes straightly
The 2nd royal knight captain, Oliver Reywood
The last knight who guarded the crown prince before he died
Ian could give him some different answer
“I will NEVER support the 5th crown prince”
Surprised, Oliver looked around
It was a htforward confirmation than he had expected
However, there was no chance that anybody heard what Ian said
Ian had already concealed his surroundings with a silence spell
Only Oliver could hear Ian’s answer
“Is it enough?”
“For now, very”
“That’s good to hear”
“Then, may I ask you one favor?”
“Speak first, I will decide later”
“Before you choose which side you want to support, be my duel opponent”
“Duel opponent?”
With the unexpected question, Ian shook his head curiously
Not only checking Ian’s standing but now Oliver asked Ian to be his duel partner?
“I need the power to confront”
“A e?”
“That’s right”
It was quite a rare opportunity for knights to duel with a e
There was no chance at all
And Oliver needed it the most
“Your sword ht it not?”
“I won’t deny it”
“You are thick skinned”
Oliver didn’t deny it either
He was desperate, though
He needed to have soe
“I refuse”
“May I ask you a reason?”
“There is no benefit for me”
It was a straight and clear reason
There was no benefit
“What if I pay you some reward?”
“I don’t know is there any reward that will satisfy me”
Whenever Ian had time, he trained himself
Fro spell formulae
To Ian, time was essential
No ah to move him
He ht have to do it if the emperor or crown prince asked him to
