I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 318 Conversation
The time was the second day after White and others returned from Hades.

The Royal Capital of Britannia, inside the Merlin Tavern.

Abs sat on a half-packed seat by the window in a corner of the tavern, quietly watching the flow of people on the streets of the imperial capital outside the window. It had just rained in the imperial capital, and in the hazy mist, the pedestrians looked like characters in an ink painting.

He seemed to be waiting for someone.

After a while, a middle-aged man in a black coat and a fluffy top hat came over and sat down in front of Aibus.

Abs didn't seem to be surprised that someone came, and at the same time, the waiter on the side also served a cup of butter beer to Abs and the man.

The man was obviously a little surprised, "Did you order early?"

"You're never late," Abs said.

The man slowly took a sip of the butter beer in front of him, and said with emotion.

"It's still delicious when Mr. Semmerer made it."

"I remember when we first met, we drank butter beer, and you invited me to drink it." He said, "It was definitely the best drink I've ever had in my life."

There is no doubt that the man in front of Aibus should be Gayward after disguise.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Abs didn't touch the butterbeer in front of him, but just asked directly.

"Do you know the possible consequences of moving Mordred?"

"He was one of the biggest obstacles to my plans," Gayward said.

Abs clenched his fists.

"He brought about change in this rotten country, liberating the people and giving them land and homes.

Overthrew the emperors and nobles who had been oppressing the people of this country for hundreds of years, and made people stand upright.

He is the hero of this country and, in a sense, your benefactor.

Because, the nobles of this country were also one of the culprits who persecuted you back then, weren’t they? "

"Have the nobles really disappeared?" Gayward asked rhetorically.

"The President has abolished the aristocracy." Abs replied.

"Oh." Gayward sneered, "Those workers in the slums who are so thin that they can see ribs, work more than ten hours a day, but earn barely enough money, do they live because of the nobles? "

Abs fell silent.

"Admit it, Albus." Gayward said, "Even if the nobles disappear, a group of new "nobles" are gradually appearing, and they will eventually re-form an evil dragon and occupy the sky above this country."

"How many real civilians are there in the so-called House of Commons?" he sneered.

"The president has already introduced policies to protect the rights and interests of workers," Abs said.

"How far have they achieved?" Gayward asked back, "This group of people is different from the nobles, who depend on the land for their existence, they cannot leave the country, they can only live and die with the country.

But they are different, they have a lot of money in their hands, sometimes technology, and steam engines that are not immovable like land.

If this country does not support their continuation, what choice do you think this group of free "nobles" will make? "

He looked at Abs.

Abs didn't answer, but Gayward continued, "They'll choose to leave the country with all this and build factories where workers are cheaper.

As far as I know, some people have already done this. For example, in West France and Germany, there are Britannian factories.

Naturally, the government would not allow this group of people to run out with the money they earned from Britannia. They could choose to break the freedom of trade established by Arthur the Great and legislate to restrict them.

But do you think this group of people without "land" would do anything if they lost their freedom? "

"War," said Abs.

"So the government will eventually compromise." Gayward said.

"This world is like this." Abs said, "After a long period of time, it is impossible to completely eliminate the existence of classes. Every era has its own political system and structure suitable for each era.

The republic existed in ancient Greece, but why did it disappear?

Because there are more people and the territory of the country is larger, if the democratic system is to be implemented in it, it will inevitably lead to low efficiency, so autocracy appears.

And the demise of the monarchy is also because of this. "

"There's a thread running through the change of the political system, isn't it?" Gayward said, "It could be called technology, it could be called people's wisdom, or whatever.

And magic can bring about all these things, it can bring about a new change, and let the human world enter a brand new utopia hundreds of years in advance.

Why can't we do this? "

"That would kill a lot of people," Abs said.

Gayward took out a pendant from the pouch on his chest, and there was a bright red liquid in the pendant, which seemed to be blood.

He placed the pendant in the middle of the table.

"Remember the prophecy we saw together in the past?" Gayward asked, "Man's self-destructive desire is difficult to change by himself, and a stronger force must come.

Those who died in this revolution will live for more people in the future. "

"My best friend, do you still remember your oath?" Gayward said sincerely, "Join us, with your presence, this revolution will surely win."

Aibus remained silent, did not refute, but did not answer either.

Gayward got up from his seat silently.

"I won't wait for you, whether you will stand by my side or not, I will still carry out my plan.

I already know your plan. "

Aibus slowly raised his head to look at him.

"I have friends from the god of death in the underworld." Gayward said, "He said that a group of living people broke into the underworld, and one of them should be the apprentice you are very optimistic about, right?
What's his name? White?
What did you send him to Hades for?
Looking for a Hydra weakness?

Let me guess, you're looking for Hercules, for his silver bow, right?
Did you succeed?

My people saw White and thought, you should have succeeded.
Merlin helped you guys, right? "

After finishing speaking, he nodded self-consciously, "Only Merlin can let you enter the underworld and come out safely. You always have the ability to let others help you."

"You violated Merlin's rules." Aibus said, "Aren't you afraid that Merlin will do it himself?"

"If he chooses to shoot, he won't help you go to Hades." Gayward said, "Because for him, it is not difficult to solve Hydra, regardless of whether he has the help of Hercules."

Aibus fell silent again.

"Before that, you should worry about your apprentice first." Gayward picked up the coat that was draped over the seat.

As the doorbell rang softly, he opened the door and left.

Abs stared at the pendant on the table that he didn't take away, without saying a word.

This is the blood alliance. They all wanted to change the world when they were young, and this thing can keep them in line forever. If one party has this idea, the blood alliance will be triggered
"Did he agree?"

At the door of the tavern, the magician named Hasa who rescued Gayward from prison was standing there waiting.

Gayward said nothing, just walked forward silently.

And Hasa quickly followed behind and said, "If he doesn't choose to stand with us, do we have to think about how to use the venom of the Hydra to kill him?"

Gayward paused, turned his head to look at Hasa, his expression and eyes didn't change much.

But Hasa felt an inexplicable chill enveloping him, he lowered his head subconsciously, avoiding his sight, and there was a very sharp cold light in his eyes.

Gayward spoke in a slow voice.

"When. Did you arrange the plan for me?"

"No, I'm just making a suggestion." Hasa hurriedly said.

"Remember, I don't like talkative people."

Gayward said quietly, and then continued to walk deep into the alley, Hasa quickly followed, and finally the two disappeared into the thick fog of the imperial capital together.
