Otto Losey returned home and shut himself in the study.
He didn't understand why things had turned out this way.
Ever since the king fell ill, An Pein seemed to have been hit hard. He finally recovered a little recently, but his actions and words were not the same as before.
To be precise, he became a stranger.
As a friend from childhood to adulthood, Otto believes that he knows the prince very well. Ampain is not the kind of person who will do anything for power. Sometimes he even thinks that the other party is a little childish and unsuitable to be a king who leads the overall situation. Because of this, he planned to wait for Ampein to be crowned queen, and then, together with Belinda and Oro, fully assist friends in managing government affairs - the three families have always followed the king, and this has been the case since the establishment of Dawn.
So he still answered yes without hesitation.
But Otto found that Amperin didn't care about his answers.
The other party's question was just out of a habit of being uneasy.
And he hadn't considered this - the three families were indeed willing to support the Moa royal family, but what if His Highness didn't need their support
When he realized this now, he felt that Ampere was getting further and further away from him.
Otto let out a breath, maybe he should do something on his own initiative.
But what to do
His Majesty the King's condition is helpless whether a pharmacist or an alchemist can do anything, and he doesn't know anything about treating diseases, so there is no way to fundamentally solve Ampain's heart disease.
Persuade the prince to cheer up
He has done enough of this kind of thing, but the facts have proved to be useless. Probably alone, there is no way to bring the palace back to his side.
The three must be united, and only by working together can we perhaps find out the reason why Ampere did this.
Thinking of this, he suddenly stood up and walked out.
"Master, it's very late now, where are you going?" When passing the hall, the butler caught up and asked.
"Tokat's family, you won't be back tonight!"
…
He came to the Tokat family's territory with a light car. Because the two were very familiar, and no one in the huge Earl's House stopped him, Otto went straight into the martial arts hall, and as expected, he found Oro Tokat who was training with his attendants.
"Yo, why are you here," Auro took off his sweaty turban and threw the wooden sword to the attendant, "I wanted to find fun but didn't dare to enter the door, so decided to pull me into the water?"
"I have something to tell you."
He took Auro to the rest room next door, and told his thoughts and plans again, "What do you think?"
"Find out the reason why Am Paine became unfamiliar?" The latter pouted, "Sorry, I'm not interested."
"Hey you-"
"He's a prince, the heir to the Kingdom of Dawn, and he won't be our friend forever, do you understand?" Auro shook his head and said, "And Am Paine is also twenty years old, not a child of seven or eight years old, he If we are making trouble, do we have to follow him up to coax him? If we don’t want to talk, we won’t talk about it, I don’t want to get up and ask around.”
"Don't you plan to assist Ampein Moa?"
"His Royal Highness needs our words to be called assistance. If you don't need it, it's called self-indulgent."
Did he see this too? Otto froze in his heart, "But the three of us have always followed Moa—"
"Three families?" Auro smiled disapprovingly, "Since Andrea died, it's just you and me." He turned around, waved his hands and walked out, "Since you are here, I Let's take you to "Crimson Dream", otherwise I'm always worrying about this and worrying about that. I feel tired just looking at it, and it's fine to vent out my energy. "
"Andrea is not dead."
Auro's footsteps stopped instantly.
Sorry, Otto whispered in his heart, promising to keep this secret, but I failed to keep the promise.
"Andrea Quinn is not dead," he repeated, "I met her in Frontier Town in Greycastle."
Auro turned around in an instant and rushed in front of him, so strong that he almost didn't press him against the wall.
"What, what did you say? This, is this true?"
"I saw with my own eyes that she was with His Royal Highness Roland Wimbledon."
"Together..." Oro's eyes widened, "You mean the kind of togetherness between a man and a woman?"
"I don't know," Otto bit his lip, "but she has become a witch, and only His Royal Highness Roland is willing to take in a witch in the entire Greycastle."
"Wait, witch?" he asked in surprise. "What happened?"
Otto Losey slowly recounted Andrea's experience, looking at the other party's mixed expression, he felt a hint of revenge in his heart. Who made you believe the Quinn family's fall from the cliff immediately, and now it's too late to know that she's not dead, she won't be with me, and she won't be with you.
"It turns out that her father's purpose in creating the cliff crash was this..." After listening to this, Oro sat on the ground with a look of frustration on his face, "Damn, why didn't I think about opening the grave and taking a closer look?"
This guy... is too much! "Cough, that's why we need to bring back the Ampere Palace even more."
The other party rolled his eyes, "Ah? What is the relationship between the two?"
"Of course there is! Think about it, he put the covenant between the two countries on hold, and he is unwilling to give reasons. In the end, it will only make His Majesty the King's plan to fight together to fail. Once the church launches an attack, we can only resist - if they Attack Dawn first, and you will lead the Knights to fight, right?" Otto asked.
"Of course, that's my job."
"Then you were defeated and sacrificed, won't you see Andrea?"
"Well, it seems to make some sense - no, why do you think I will lose?" Auro shouted in disapproval.
"Even the fierce and tough Wolf Fang Kingdom can't save the defeat, how can you be so powerful," he ignored his friend's protest, and continued, "In turn, the Church will attack Graycastle first, and Roland will always fight against the invaders. If he dies, Andrea will probably die by his side. If the church gets caught, it will only be worse. But if the two countries can become horns and make the church dare not move, you don't have to. Died on the battlefield, there is still a chance to meet again in the future, do you think the covenant is important?"
"… important."
"There is no covenant if you don't bring the Highness back. Do you think the two are related now?"
"There are relationships."
"Then do you do it?"
Auro said decisively, "Done!"
The two hands were tightly clasped together.
Yorko dragged his tired but comfortable body back to the place where he stayed. As soon as he opened the bedroom door, he heard a voice saying, "Finally wait until you come back."
He was startled, he was new here, who would sneak into the room and squat to guard himself? Could it be Denise's married husband? Before he made up his mind whether to flee or beg for mercy, the other party had already lit the candle. Under the firelight, he realized that the speaker was Hill Fox.
"You almost scared me to death, you know?" Yorko exhaled, "Is there anything I can't wait until tomorrow?"
"No one will notice that I've been here at night," Hill spread his hands, "I'm used to being cautious, please understand."
"It doesn't matter." Although the other party is a personal guard, after all, it was assigned to him by His Majesty Roland, and he cannot be treated as a general servant. "Since you are here, you can talk about it."
"Nowadays, the influx of wolf heart refugees into the morning is a good opportunity to recruit. You can treat it as a business, mainly buying craftsmen, literate people and guys with special skills. All the money needed is paid by Your Majesty, and every recruit For one person, you can get five silver wolves as a reward."
"Please, I don't know how to do business! Gossiping with Denise is just to seduce her, you don't really plan to let me sell people, do you?" Yorko said with a forehead, "and the slave trade mainly occurred in the two countries. The border, as an ambassador, it is not convenient for me to go there!"
"This is what Your Majesty means," Hill said calmly, "and you don't need to leave Radiance City. Merchants will always resell slaves. It doesn't matter if the price is higher, and it saves the trouble of screening. Can do business... You can ask Denise Payton to help, she is a well-known noble businessman here, and it is not difficult for her to transport refugees to Greycastle. Once the transportation line is established, it will also benefit us A lot, for example, in case of danger, we can disguise as a vendor to evacuate at any time, which is both concealed and safe.”
Yorko opened his mouth wide, "Have you been to the Dawn King Capital?"
Hill shook his head.
"Then how did you know so clearly?"
"I heard it from the street when you were out 'expanding relationships'. "
"I thought you were a capable knight, but I didn't expect you to be a capable businessman," Yorko said with admiration.
"I'm not a samurai or a businessman, but I can protect your safety at critical times. This is also the mission entrusted to me by Your Majesty."
"Then you are..."
"Just an ordinary... acrobat," Hill laughed.
