Chapter 538 (2/2)
”Brandon...”
”Father, I know what you're doing... I'm also grateful that you're willing to give me such a chance; really, I've never asked for this.” with a brilliant smile on my face, I can hear the friction of bones and joints with too hard hands:
”From small to large, you didn't look at me once... Even when I got the Dragon mirassis, but my brother got nothing - I'm sorry to say so, but I only saw suspicion and doubt in your eyes.”
”Even you... Wonder if I did something - yes, it's very consistent with my character and style, isn't it?”
Eckhardt didn't say anything, just looked at his son silently... His youngest son who is the most disobedient and keen to give people ”surprises” and surprises.
This... Is good at hiding and hiding his son.
Finally no longer hide their ambitions.
”Your brother... Connor, he sees farther than you - he won't do anything superfluous today.” Eckhardt said:
”His ambition... Can make the de sallion family go to the glory that has not been completed for 12 generations, and he can change himself for all this.”
”This is the talent of the emperor's brother. He was born a model of the 'Supreme Emperor'.” Brandon shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently:
”I won't... I won't change myself for anyone!”
”All right.” Eckhardt nodded and looked at his son calmly, ”how much are you willing to pay for this?”
Price?
Brandon opened his arms, and his open expression was more like indifference. The corners of his mouth were funny and his eyes were unbridled:
”Let it go!”
”Those who take the initiative to abstain are not worth giving a second chance.” Eckhardt said in a deep voice, ”I will not give you a second chance... The Empire and the de sallion royal family must not be turbulent and divided because of one person!”
”I didn't expect that, did I?” Brandon scratched his head. The smile on his face became more and more brilliant: ”but as your son, please allow me to say more before you make such a big decision.”
”That's right... Brother Connor is the most standard emperor model and the person who can win the unanimous recognition of the whole empire... From the church to the nobility, everyone is unanimously supporting him to inherit the throne.”
”But because of this... He has his own blind spot and more limitations - what he can see may not be able to do!”
”And I can.” Brandon's voice is still unbridled arrogance:
”Disgust, hatred, doubt, hostility... I see too much; father, if you really want an heir who can change the Empire, don't expect him to inherit the throne smoothly, because such a person... Must be a person who carries the empire but is an enemy of the Empire!”
”Father, I am de sallion, the descendant of the Dragon royal family and the saxophone royal family.”
”I... Will never fear to be the enemy of the whole empire!”
Eckhardt II stared at him, staring at his fearless eyes of the same color.
”Good, I promise you.”
”If Loren Turin can escape from the imperial capital under the pursuit of the night watchman, I can let it go.”
Huh?
This, this is successful? That's it?!
Brandon was extremely surprised - with his knowledge of his father, this little trick should not be enough to convince him; At the very least, I have to make a written note to tell him that I will never talk to the emperor again
Eckhardt raised his hand to block Brandon, who was still in shock, and handed a note to Brandon.
At the moment of receiving it, Brandon immediately noticed the bright red mark on it.
It's blood... Not dry yet.
The next moment, his royal highness, the surprised prince, opened his eyes!
”Twenty two night watchmen... None survived...”
I can't see what I'm thinking. Eckhardt's face was not angry at being beaten, but his eyes narrowed into a slit:
”As you said... He's really good at surprise!”
