Working Prophet.

Chapter 203 The Second Son Alliance

"You know my father?" Ilea stopped walking.

"I don't know him, but I did hear some things about him from the birds." The man in the cell said, "something you should be interested in, the birds told me that his death was not Surprise... oh, it looks like you already know that you are smarter than many people think."

The girl was noncommittal, but continued, "What have you heard about my father's death?"

"He was murdered by someone he trusted."

"Sir Carloman, he was my father's dear friend."

"That's right, but Sir Carloman is not the mastermind. In fact, he was also forced." The man in the cell stood up with difficulty, and the iron chain clanged behind him.

"Sir Carloman has only one son, Hugo, who is just 16 years old this year. He regards that child as a treasure, but...boys are always very naughty at this age. About a year ago, he got into trouble in Rocky Snow City. Falling in love with a woman he wasn't supposed to fall in love with."

"Sir Carloman's only son, the future heir of Acorn Castle, this status is something that no girl in the western region can't pursue."

"Yes, but he fell in love with a married woman, and the lady returned his passionate love. They secretly dated several times in private, and the places became more and more daring. The last time , is in the bedroom.

"But unfortunately halfway through, the owner of the bedroom returned and they were caught. Witnessing this heartbreaking scene made the lady's husband furious, and then sent Hugo an invitation to a duel.

"It's a pity that the future heir of Acorn Castle, his swordsmanship is not as good as his performance in the bed, if the duel is really held as scheduled, he will undoubtedly die.

"Sir Carloman didn't want to watch his only son die, so he pleaded with the lady's husband and offered to pay a huge amount of compensation for the stupid thing his son committed, but the other party refused him without hesitation.

"Just when Sir Carloman was at a loss, a big man found him and was willing to come forward to help him settle this matter, but in return, he must also do something for that big man."

"In the end, he killed my father for that man." The female lord took a deep breath, "Your bird friends know a lot."

"They are everywhere, and they can come and go anywhere in the world at will without arousing suspicion. After all, who would be wary of these little birds that can be seen everywhere? No secret can be hidden from them."

The man in the cell smiled.

His words also made the girl shudder uncontrollably, and immediately felt that the surroundings became unsafe.

There are also many birds on the Arias family's property, and she actually saw a blue tit on the windowsill when she opened the window this morning.

I saw crows outside the dungeon just now. If they could all be spies, wouldn't her every move be watched by others, with no privacy at all.

Fortunately, the next moment she heard Li Yu say, "Don't be fooled by him, birds haven't evolved language at all, let alone know Sir Carloman and his son, and he can't communicate with birds either. Otherwise, he would have discovered the trap we set up long ago, so how could he and the black dragon fall into the trap?"

"That's right." Miss Rabbit suddenly realized, and the uneasy feeling of being spied on in her heart dissipated.

Merlin was as reliable as ever.

The girl is lucky now that she picked up Li Yu first.

Afterwards, she looked at the man in the cell again, her eyes turned cold, "You know so well, it seems that you must know the person who murdered my father, and maybe you made a plan with him."

The man didn't seem to expect that his lie would be exposed on the spot.

Moreover, the word evolution that Li Yu said before was very new to him, so he couldn't help but look Li Yu up and down again.

"Your Excellency must be the prophet of the Shuangxiu Sect. Recently, there have been many stories about your deeds in the Western Region. I have also admired your name for a long time."

After speaking, he looked at the female lord again, "Okay, you caught me, the black dragon was indeed under my control, but I have nothing to do with your father's death."

Seeing the other party change his words so simply and neatly, Ilea was a little surprised.

Because once he admits his relationship with the black dragon, it means cutting off the last chance of survival, and the nobles in the western region will never let him go.

The man in the cell looked very calm at this moment, "I know I'm going to die this time, and since that's the case, I don't need to keep a secret for that person anymore.

"I just hope that you can keep your previous promise and let me live more comfortably in the days before I die."

"It depends on how valuable the information you provide is." The girl said.

"The person who murdered your father was the second son of Marquis Cullen, Hells, ah, it seems that you already knew about this, but don't worry, the next thing is the important point... Hells is not dead.

"I can't even kill my employer." The man in the cell blinked, "After killing many lords who supported his brother one after another, Hells is also worried that someone will suspect him. .

"So he made an appointment with me to play a scene together, and let the black dragon 'kill' him in front of thousands of people, so that he can get rid of the suspicion on him, and he can get rid of it from here. Temporarily withdrawn from the incident, but in fact the person who was killed was just a substitute for him.

"Look, you're not the only ones who know how to play tricks."

"Where is he now?"

"I don't know." The man in the cell shrugged, "Hels is a very cautious person, especially when it comes to matters related to his life, there are even fewer people he trusts, and I am obviously not in that position." list, but I know what he's going to do next.

"He will kill his father and his own brother, clear away the last two obstacles before he becomes the king of the Western Region, and then he will show up again, drive away the black dragon, and win the support of the entire Western Region, of course because of you , he obviously can't complete the last step of the plan, but I don't think he will give up just yet."

"why?"

"As I said, my dragon and I are just pawns working for him. Losing us is certainly not what he wants to see, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation. He still has allies, very powerful allies."

"Who?"

"Have you ever heard of the Second Sons Alliance? According to the tradition of the Bratis Continent, no matter the territory, family property or title, it belongs to the eldest son. The second son can get very little. Many of them are not reconciled. , However, compared with their elder brothers, their power is too weak, so some people thought why not concentrate the power of the big guys? This is the origin of the Second Sons Alliance."
