118. Contest for the throne (8)
Olivia quickly cheered up from her negative emotions and turned to look at Keen who was standing beside her and said, "What is he doing here?"
Siro said: "This is a very long story."
Olivia pressed her forehead. The last thing she wanted to hear now was the story. "Tell me, do you think he is reliable?"
Keane looked at them blankly and discussed his loyalty in front of him.
Siro said: "I don't know." Even with the words of Casdaron II and Olivia's attitude, he still couldn't accept Mrs. Rachel's words in his heart. This was not just a matter of his mother's pursuit of the throne, but she killed her own son!
He closed his eyes and sweat broke out again.
Suo Suo spread his palms open, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and gently wiped the sweat in his palms. Suo Suo's movements were very gentle, as if his palms were the most precious treasure in the world. Such cherishing gently sootheed the wounds that he didn't want to see in the deepest part of his heart, and slowly numbed the pain in his tenderness.
Olivia couldn't help but say, "Why keep him?"
Siro came back to his senses and said calmly: "Maybe useful." If Mrs. Rachel's words were true, then Keane would bring him a very powerful force. Although he was unwilling to bear Mrs. Rachel's affection, if at this time, the word "unwilling" was far inferior to "need".
Olivia said, "You already have gallons." Her words suddenly stopped, and the eyes of her eyes looking at gallon were also a little suspicious. She seemed to have thought of the same thought as Siro before.
Gallon stood up straight and said firmly: "I will always be loyal to His Royal Highness Crown Prince Silo." Yesterday, Silo's strange attitude had already made him feel that something had happened secretly, and this happened made his loyalty question. For a knight, this was the most unbearable, so he urgently needed to confess his love.
Olivia stared at him for a long time before looking at Siro meaningfully and said, "I think he is credible."
Keane suddenly inserted and said, "I am willing to be loyal to His Royal Highness Crown Prince Siro forever!" His voice was louder and louder than Gallon.
Olivia said: "Some people always like to use their voices to hide their guilt."
A trace of anger flashed in Keane's eyes, but he endured it again, "I promised Mrs. Rachel to protect His Highness Siro and obey His Highness's command, and I will definitely do it."
Olivia said coldly: "Do you think Mrs. Rachel has any credibility to us?"
Keane said: "She is a respectable person."
Olivia said: "The more respectful she is in your eyes, the more hateful she is in my eyes!" She ate a stomach full of fire at Queen Samanta and happened to go out. Keane could be said to have bumped into it.
Keane glared at her, the reputation and prestige of the legendary woman in the Empire did not put any pressure on him. He said word by word: "Swear in the name of a knight!"
Olivia snorted coldly, but did not pursue it anymore. If the magician and the knight had something in common, it must be that they respected their reputation as well. She turned to Siro and asked, "What are your plans now?"
Siro looked down at Soso with gentle eyes, "I want to send Soso out of the empire."
Suso's fingers froze and raised his head in surprise.
Siro raised his hand and touched his face, "I will come back to pick you up soon."
"What happened, right?" Suo's eyebrows were tightly entangled, his eyes filled with worry, "I want to stay."
Siro said softly: "I can feel at ease when you are in a safe place."
Sosuo said: "But you are not in a safe place, how can I feel at ease?"
Siro stopped his fingers. If he heard this, he would have been very happy, but now is not the time.
Vinson suddenly injected: "The Rage Elf may play a key role in you."
Siro said: "He can't control it yet."
Vinson said: "Unable to control does not mean that it cannot be used."
Siro's insistence was slightly shaken.
Vinson said again: "Isn't he the one you trust the most at the moment?"
His words were like a sharp sword, instantly piercing Siro's heart, revealing all his anxious mood, but Siro did not intend to admit it. He said without changing his face: "I trust you, and I also trust Aunt Olivia and Gallon. There is no doubt about this." He paused and turned to look at Keen, "Maybe, this half can be counted."
Vincent smiled unanimously.
Siro said: "Since you have eliminated the step of sending Soso away, then do what you should do."
Olivia said: "What are you going to do?"
Siro said: "Just like the previous practice, win over the three major families."
Olivia frowned, "Do you think it's possible?"
Siro said: "Why not?"
Olivia was not optimistic about the three major families' inseparable from them and the influence of Queen Samanta on them.
Siro seemed to see what she was thinking and said slowly: "What the three major families need is never friends, but allies. What makes them connected with each other is never friendship, but interests."
Olivia said, "Okay. I'll go with you."
Siro said: "No, Aunt Olivia, I want to ask you for one more important thing."
"What?"
"I want a magic army."
For the Royal Academy of Magic, forming a magic army is easy, just as for Barnett, forming a Knights Legion is very easy. However, although he easily formed a legion, he was still one step late.
He rode on the horse and looked in shock at the court magician standing in front of him who was sternly announcing the death of Casdaron II. If possible, he wanted to break the other's neck and pour out all the words in his stomach to see if they would disappear in the sun. But he could not do so. He could only get off the horse, pull up the other's collar, and ask coldly: "I want to see His Majesty the Emperor."
The palace magician was Rhodes. He looked back at his stare calmly and said calmly: "Your Majesty has been assassinated."
"Who did it? Are you?" Barnett raised his hand slightly.
Rhodes raised his feet with earth magic so that he could breathe less difficult, "No. After testing, we can be sure that the murderer was from the Light Society."
"What?" This was the second time Barnett was surprised today.
Rhodesdao: "Your Majesty died of the power of faith, which is the power that only God's messengers possess. It just so happened that the emperor had two messengers of the God of Light who were guests. Isn't the answer very obvious?"
Barnett said: "I want to see Your Majesty! Even the body."
Rhode thought for a while and said, "I must ask His Majesty the Queen."
Barnett suddenly let go of his collar, "My patience is limited, you'd better get faster!"
Rhode bowed mercilessly, then turned around and walked towards the palace.
Barnett stood behind him and suddenly remembered something. Shouldn't the queen be in the Empire Hall at this time? Why did Rhodes go to the palace to ask for instructions?
Hall, who had been by his side, suddenly said, "I want to see my mother."
Barnet hesitated: "Let's go in together later." Before the situation in the palace was clear, he could not throw the last ace in his hand.
The magic circle leading to the palace was obviously more than the one that Vinson knew. At least everyone thought that Queen Samantha, who was in the Great Hall of the Empire, should appear in the palace garden without anyone knowing it. Her behavior was as elegant as ever, and Casdaron II's death obviously did not affect her.
And sitting opposite her was the one who felt the entire empire was the one who felt the least possible to sit with her and have tea.
Mrs. Rachel said, "I have done everything you want me to do."
Queen Samanta said calmly: "Thank you."
"It's time for you to fulfill your promise, too." Mrs. Rachel said.
Queen Samantha said, "Don't worry, I will definitely give him freedom."
Mrs. Rachel said, “When?”
Queen Samantha said: "When I really own the empire."
Mrs. Rachel said, “It’s already.”
"No. Not yet."
Mrs. Rachel suddenly laughed, "Are you really going to kill your child with your own hands to complete the last puzzle of the painting?"
Queen Samantha paused slightly with the teacup on her hand, raised her eyes and said, "By the way, you still owe my child my life."
Mrs. Rachel said calmly: "You gave me the poison with your own hands."
Queen Samantha looked cold and said, "That's because he was hit by your curse."
