Chapter 147: Conflict and Opposition 2

Once again the ripple struck the capital the day before, right after the death of Marquis Cavanill.

Overnight, several nobles and nobles of the Emperor had died.

And naturally, both sides flipped over.

They went out looking for the culprit and found the clues that they thought the culprit had left, unlike the case of Marquis Cavanill.

The clues were all usually small and suspicious items, such as the velvet textile used by the Imperial Forces, or the handkerchiefs that were sold in the nearby shops of a noble’s mansion.

But the two sides, who had already doubted each other, were busy criticizing each other than looking for reliable clues.

“It was his intention to kill us in the Empire capital region.”

“That is right. There are no definite clues, but the same man definitely killed Marquis Cavanill.”

A manor outside the Nemesis.

Many knew noble figures were gathered.

They seriously condemned the assassination call of the Emperor and called for a federal action.

“Duke Butler, what do you think about this?”

In the topmost seat of the meeting room.

Seated there was a white-haired old man with sharpness in his eyes.

He was the one called Duke Butler, representing the noblemen.

He was huge in the West. He ran straight to the capital upon hearing the news about Marquis Cavanill.

The man, who was quietly listening to their words till then, finally decided to speak as the nobles wanted to know of his opinion.

“Is this really the work of the Emperor?” Butler asked.

“Yes. All the clues that we have discovered are pointing at the Emperor so far. It is the work of the Emperor.”

The words were from a young noble, Cardiff, who thought that the emperor was quite crafty.

But knowing the Emperor, he would certainly never do anything as stupid as to leave behind evidence.

However, no matter how dense Emperor Rudolf was, not all of the Emperor’s nobles were the same as him.

Many of the Emperor’s nobles were just worms with the highest loyalty to the Emperor.

There was a highly good chance that such worms might have done a poor job gaining the advantage of the Emperor.

Whatever the reason was, if such assumptions were indeed right, the responsibility would ultimately be attributed to the head, the Emperor.

“Marquis Mayers, what are your thoughts on this?” Asked Butler.

Mayers, who was sitting on the opposite side of Duke Butler, opened his mouth.

“I feel a bit unsure, but things shouldn’t be like this anymore. For starters, I think we should have a minimum safety measure?”

Marquis Mayers, who had come to the capital before Duke Butler, insisted that the noblemen should be united.

If they were all scattered, they would definitely be blown away.

“So, are you proposing a rebellion?”

The word rebellion, which came out from the mouth of Duke Butler, made the faces of all the nobles in the room turn stiff.
