Chapter 679 - Swords Clash 3 (1/2)
“Really, they are meeting in the mansion right now?”
It was a scene in the Symphonia Royal palace Prime Minister’s office.
Baron Hudson, who answered Hans’ question, nodded.
“Yes, it seems that they are plotting something, just as you expected.”
Before leaving for the city of Lamer, Luke called Prime Minister Hans and the Intelligence chief, Baron Hudson, and asked them for the surveillance of the spies of Libiya.
As a result, Hudson monitored Paradise Salon, which was suspicious for its growth, and found out that they were spies of the Libiya Kingdom.
“Are they trying to agitate the dissatisfied men to revolt, just as His Majesty said?”
“It seems like some nobles and extreme republicans have already fallen in the trap.”
At Hudson’s words, Hans titled his head for not being able to understand.
“But even if they incite those men, they can’t threaten the capital or dominate the power. so why…?”
After the founding of the Symphonia Kingdom, the strength of the nobles was weakened a lot, thanks to the new military reforms Luke had enforced.
With low-level Gigants, and the Knights which were there for the noble families were all they had.
As a result, the estates were all downgraded to the level of only maintaining their own security and subjugating the rampant monsters, the nobles didn’t have the power to rebel against the ruler.
“By any chance did they import the Gigants or trade them in with some unknown channel?”
Gigant’s were the power needed for rebellion.
It was because most of the war on land would start with Gigants and end with Gigants.
At Hans’ question, Hudson shook his head.
“It isn’t possible to trade the Gigants in our Kingdom or outside, especially since Argos has eyes everywhere. And if their reason is to make us unstable and cause confusion, they don’t need the support of the strategic materials Gigants. Don’t we already know that there is something more powerful and dangerous than the Gigants itself?”
“No way…?”
In response to Hans’ reaction, Hudson nodded his head.
“Recently, many unidentified men were recruited by the Libiya Kingdom, and they were all the warlocks of the Veritas Magic tower.”
There was a saying in the Southern Continent, an enemy’s enemy was our comrade.
If Shaikan broke off the alliance and decided that Symphonia was his enemy, there was no law that said that he shouldn’t hold hands with Veritas Magic tower which didn’t like Luke at all.
And if the warlocks decided and made a mess, it was only a matter of time before the city got destroyed.
