Chapter 551: Scheme

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

An individual’s scheme would never match up to the heavens’ schemes A scheme’s success or failure depended more upon the heavens than the individual Such cliché phrases had likely been said countless times already But, insentences would always die quickly

No matter hoondrous the plan or sche to fail for one simple reason: bad luck For instance, if you e… What, you’re saying that an inexperienced youth who left his village for the first tiears of fate turn Perhaps that youth who had just worked as a tavern server recently would soon becoend

After many years of experience, I came up with three maxims about why schemes would fail First, if the schemer killed the main character’s parents, teacher, or some other respected elder Second, if the scheirlfriend or love interest Third, if the scheree: you antagonized the h, it seemed that no matter orld I was in, the stories would always be quite cliché

Yep, I was referring to scheh sometimes reality would be even more fantastical than stories, most of the time, stories were only stories, and reality was reality

The success rate of scheher That was because the schemer and his subordinates wouldn’t be such idiots like in the stories So in theit out probably also had ato start it in the first place

A certain earl’s fa royalty to have a generation with no descendants Then, that earl’s faht succeed the throne, thus ensuring that the earl’s family succeeded the throne in the end… Yep, I was actually referring to the current San Antonio The history behind how the current ruling falorious at all

Did the major nobles in San Antonio not know about how this croas obtained? Was the previous royalty not on guard at all? In fact, the royalty had long since known that Earl Misset had grand ambitions The royalty even knew exactly why those distantly related princes had died However, Earl Misset froeneration had the most powerful army, and the loyalty of one-third of all the major nobles So, the San Antonio royalty frorievedly as they were destroyed

I had often heard stories about inexperienced youths saving the princess in distress and finally reviving a kingdo the ruler of an entire country However, I had never seen such things happen in reality Instead, the ugly and old “villains” fro the princess, having several children, and usurping the throne This was actually quite commonplace

The reasons were quite simple The schemers were typically quite powerful Their a a sufficient amount of factional support and actual power If a noble faer than the royalty, it was only natural that this noble family would have ambitions to replace the royalty Only an incredible feould adhere to their ancient contracts to the royalty and remain loyal The end result was that the schemes were basically almost open for everyone to see, and that today’s traitor would be the glorious king of tomorrow

The internal war in the Sala Dukedooing in the world right now In this current generation, there were so s, assassinations, and civil wars that such news no longer a empires were still able to keep such chaos suppressed, the smaller countries were now in a state of utter chaos

It would be too naïve to think of all this chaos as only natural during the Holy War Judging from the information I received from the fairies and the Mist Alliance, much of this chaos actually had to do with the involvement of other species or outside factions

Perhaps a certain noble would mysteriously receive powerful God Equipment Perhaps a certain does join his cause Perhaps a certain dukedo their support Perhaps a genius strategist would suddenly appear, greatly strengthening a certain faction’s th… This type of abnore What happened next was even more common Either the domain lord who felt like it was his “destiny” to be the ruler would start plotting to overthrow his current ruler, or the ruler would feel threatened and begin to preemptively clean house

The “Vultures of War” catastrophe froame’s history had now appeared in front of us in a different form—civil wars and internal unrest frohbor having a civil ould be thepossible If you didn’t intervene, the civil ould end up affecting you as well But if you intervened, you would i in another country’s internal affairs or invasion

Of course, soreat chance to expand their territories And so, the fires of war kept burning even greater as the civil ere upgraded into international world wars

ToBardi, Xiluo, and San Antonio, had secretly gainedin the world Not to mention, since this was all about other countries’ internal affairs, it was impossible for outsiders to intervene

This was destructive for any sa empires? No, this was a trea empires only won and never lost whenever they conquered other s their territories not only solidified the royalty’s position, but it also benefited the country’s a empires’ citizens desire evenand the nobles to start even est trouble of all

If all of this was due to the Chaos Faction’s scheme, then I must say that it onderfully done

A few rando up, or a few nonhu their support, or a few dark cultists, or a single powerful weapon, or so as they were used well, such tiny pieces in the grand sches could cause an entire country to sink into utter chaos This would decrease the entire overall strength of humanity

The Sala Dukedom was an obvious exa archduke’s family and the domain lords This was no social class revolution And, in the end, no matter on or lost, the Sala Dukedoreatly die reduction in population There would be no true victor in the end Looking at the overall situation and the long-term future, everyone would be a loser

Limit the scale of the wars? It wouldn’t be so easy after the wars began

So wars before they started was especially hard to do Those with ambition were plentiful everywhere It just depended on if the a thele one of each domain lord’s subordinates? Were we supposed to ban the nobles and do how this world currently had a feudal society where dos in their own domains, even their countries’ royalty would be unable to stop the domain lords

This scheme didn’t seem like it came from the demons, as deainst you This seemed far more like a vicious scheme from the devils that loved to torment humans While such a scheme wouldn’t see results anyti wouldof all of humanity

Perhaps it was because several of the Devil Lords betrayed the Chaos Faction and joined the hell Faction Perhaps it was because Cynthia, the will of the Chaos Abyss, had disappeared The re neutral as they typically would in previous Holy Wars The other Devil Lords were showing off their abilities and support for the Chaos Faction
