Chapter 1015 (1/2)
Byrne, red blood castle.
evening.
Gloomy clouds and intermittent cold rain paint the once bustling streets and lanes with a layer of lead gray; The streets muddy by snow and sewage are very deserted. There are few pedestrians except those who rush home, hangover drinkers and tourists.
The black haired wizard in a cloak walked alone in the street, covering his face with a hood as much as possible.
Thanks to Charlotte's carefully prepared ceremony and feast, no one knows what his Duke looks like, at least in the red blood castle, from the Earls to the tavern owner on the street.
The advantage is that everyone knows him, the disadvantage is that everyone knows him.
Well, that's really
Great.
Laughing and pulling at the corners of his mouth, the black haired wizard raised his eyes and looked at the door of the tavern in front of him.
It's just an ordinary pub outside red blood castle.
Shortly after the celebration, many foreign businessmen and tourists stayed here - although this kind of tavern outside the city wall is relatively simple, it is better in good quality and low price.
Clean beds, clean hot water, a fireplace for baking, drinking ale and black bread, inexpensive wine and roast sausage, stew and vegetable soup.
There is nothing more satisfying for a traveler who has traveled so far.
Of course, it is also the favorite place for people who are keen to inquire about news - tourists from all directions also bring rumors and gossip from all directions; As long as you have a heart, you can collect the information you want.
Pulling his hood, the black haired wizard went straight into the door of the tavern.
………………
”LUT infinit?”
Loren was stunned when he heard the name.
”Rupert infinite.” looking at his apprentice without expression, Dalton kand repeated, ”I told you not to care about him. He is no longer your enemy.”
”But he is still my enemy - I can never think of him breaking the original agreement and using me to make me a part of his chess piece and layout again.”
”So I found him, in my way; I used his presence to benefit you and your Byrne, and disclosed the information to the former chief justice Victor Seuss, in exchange for the battle report on the front lines of eboden and lottel, and Victor Seuss's private commitment to win one-third of the logistics control for Byrne in this war.”
Dalton kand's voice was steady and calm, and he could not hear any emotion, no anger, no excitement, or showing off.
He is stating one thing, and only one thing.
This absolute calm, without any fluctuation due to the instinctive emotion of the body, is the style of a wizard.
”Are you sure he will agree?” Loren was a little skeptical. ”I know Victor Hughes. He is very principled. He is not the kind of person who will be blinded by the desire for power.”
If you have a relationship with the former night watchman leader, you will inevitably pry into the Royal secrets; Once this kind of thing gets involved, it can't get rid of, either become the emperor's confidant or die.
Victor Hughes... He's not the kind of guy who will do anything to climb up.
”He will,” Dalton said coldly:
”Metterne Leopold is dying. Conrad needs an absolutely trusted seal minister - Victor Seuss. He is a candidate prepared by metterne. He must seize this opportunity to win the absolute trust of the emperor.”
The dark haired wizard was stunned and thought a little to understand what mentor Dalton meant.
This is the fermentation of the ”Isaac imperial seal” event.
No matter how determined emperor Conrad was to break the barriers and grant wizards the qualification to be canonized, he would never be able to do it without sufficient support.
Within the imperial capital, there is only one person who can make the parties compromise and carry out the orders... Metney Leopold, only he can turn this matter from the emperor's determination into a reality.
So he must pay the price.
It is impossible to avoid retaliation for such a move that is destined to seriously weaken the authority of the church and arouse opposition from all parties; They dare not target the Emperor himself, so they will target the executor and promoter of this matter.
The seal Minister of the former cabinet, metterne Leopold... He is dead, and the church will never let him go.
Of course, the minister in charge of the seal could not be killed so easily, and connord could not allow it; But the church can wait. They can wait until the emperor needs help and even come to the door to beg for themselves, and then make some ”accidents”.
The heavenly palace can only pretend that it is really just an ”accident”.
Victor Seuss is the ”aftermath” arranged by him - with connord's caution, if it is the candidate recommended by metterne, it will never be trusted by him; So he wanted to add chips to victor and become important in front of the emperor.
Getting victor and Byrne to reach an important agreement should be the first step of the plan;
Dalton kand decided to take advantage of this opportunity to give him a push and exchange more things from the sky palace.
Well... If he didn't know enough about his mentor, Lauren would definitely think he designed it, not improvised.
But there is one problem
”If you really want to do this, isn't the identity of the imperial night watchman going to be exposed?” Loren asked with some vigilance: ”and your goal of revenge against rut infinite...”
”They won't succeed.”
Dalton kand shook his head:
”I told Victor Hughes about the 'former night watchman leader' and I didn't lie; but... That doesn't mean LUT infinite is still there.”
”He is the leader of the night watchman and knows more about the imperial capital than anyone else; if he doesn't want to be found, no one can find him.”
”As for the agreement with Victor Hughes... As long as he finds clues about Ruud infinite, our agreement can be reached.”
”Do you have so much confidence in him?” raised his eyebrows, and Lauren couldn't help smiling: ”maybe he failed, connord will begin to doubt the loyalty of the night watchman in the imperial capital, and we can't catch LUT infinite.”
”He will not fail - if he is not a man keen on power, this is his only chance to inherit Metternich's ideal and become a seal minister; if he is keen on power, this is his only chance to reach the peak of power.”
Dalton kand's tone was a little more affirmative: ”the night watchman of the imperial capital... I think emperor Connor no longer trusted their loyalty; but he will not overthrow it completely. At least he needs these people to serve him until he finds a substitute.”
”As for LUT infinite... His life is mine.”
The bland tone didn't sound murderous.
