Fairy Tail: Simulated from 400 years ago

Chapter 184 Thomas Dutton and Arcadios

Dean bit his pipe and was about to light the tobacco when he suddenly heard a scream in the house, followed by a woman's scream, and then an indescribable sound.

He was so frightened that the pipe fell to the ground, feeling uneasy, he quickly brought two guards in, and ran all the way into the room smoothly.

I saw a bloody tragedy in the room, under the opened bed curtain.

The minister's wife wrapped her fair body in a quilt and shivered in the corner.

And on the mattress, lying on his back, Prince Adler was in great pain and unwilling to rest in peace.

Prince Adler was stabbed in multiple places in his throat, chest, abdomen and lower body. Blood arrows spurted out and flowed all over the floor, with some splatters on the wallpapered walls.

The words that originally belonged to Prince Adler's private parts were held in the hand of a man carrying a knife.

This man is the owner of this mansion, the minister.

Dean was shocked. He had already inquired that the minister should not be at home tonight. Why did he suddenly return and kill Prince Adler?
The minister threw those words to the ground and showed a miserable smile: "Haha, it's all retribution. I helped Adler prostitute his wife and daughter, but Adler prostituted my wife. It's all retribution..."

Dean and the guards could only watch helplessly as he plunged the dagger into his heart, and soon fell down dead.
-
Thomas E. Fiore would never have imagined that when he saw his hateful brother again, Adler would already be a cold and stiff corpse in the crystal coffin.

He watched from a distance, but once he got closer, with his short stature, he had to stand on a low stool to look at Adler's remains. Such a scene would be quite comical.

However, no one dares to laugh at Prince Thomas now, even behind his back, because they know that the Fiore royal family has completely changed.

Clark, the current king of Fiore, fell ill in extreme shock and grief after learning that his most beloved child had been murdered. He is still bedridden and cannot come to the memorial site, so he can only entrust Prince Thomas to take his place.

How long can King Clark live?No one knows.

When Thomas thought of his father's expression of despair and pain, he secretly resented him. His father acted as if his own children were dead. Even if Adler died, his father would not treat him hypocritically.

Brothers Adler and Thomas have faced such completely different treatment since they were young. Thomas knows the reason why, it is because Adler is tall and handsome, while he is short and not good-looking enough.

Thomas silently endured this unfair treatment and endured Adler's arrogance and domineering. He wanted help, but no one was willing to follow him.

Just when he was about to give up completely, something unexpected happened!
The obstacle that had always been in front of him, that Adler, was assassinated in bed because of his mistress!

Thomas had to admit that he was first surprised and then ecstatic when he heard of this horrific event.

Sure enough, after Adler's infamous death, the attitudes of the people around Thomas quietly changed, some explicit, some implicit, but they were all moving closer to him.

The joy in Thomas's heart at this time satisfied his ambition.

He is definitely not willing to be mediocre. In the original history, he witnessed Leila opening the solar eclipse gate. Later, Anna and Leila asked him to destroy the solar eclipse gate to avoid future troubles. However, he only agreed on the surface, but secretly The Eclipse Gate was left behind and has been trying to do something with it.

Such a person quickly concealed his joy at Adler's death, pretending to be distraught.

After the grand and solemn funeral, Thomas was greeted by an adviser and a knight, both of whom he had obtained for his use.

Thomas' promise to his staff Dutton and the knight Arcadios is that when they help him securely sit on the throne of King Fiore, he will make Dutton the "Minister of Defense" and Arcadios the guard of the palace. Head of the Knights.One can make great achievements in national defense and government affairs, and the other can stay with the king as a servant. They are both very respected. They are both satisfied with this commitment.

Seeing the sky getting darker, the funeral crowd leaving one after another, and the place became quiet, Dutton's half-closed eyes suddenly widened a little.

He suggested to Thomas: "Your Highness, as a younger brother who respects his elder brother, you should go to the prison to question the criminal in person."

Thomas understood, nodded in agreement, turned to look at Arcadios, and asked, "What did those sinners say?"

"That woman did have an affair with His Highness Adler. She admitted that she took the initiative to seduce His Highness Adler." Arcadios told the truth.

"No." Dutton interrupted at this time, "It was His Highness Adler who forced the minister's woman and coerced her again and again. In the end, the minister discovered the truth, which led to this tragedy."

In the original history, Dutton saw sharply that the so-called "solar eclipse plan" of Princess Emerald, the daughter of King Thomas, was full of loopholes. Her attempt to change history through the eclipse gate was harmful to the Kingdom of Fiore.

He, who was younger, behaved equally sophisticatedly: "Your Highness Thomas, although the deceased is the most important, His Highness Adler has done too many ridiculous things. We should no longer hide it and let the world know the truth."

Thomas suddenly understood the implication of Dutton's words, which was to nail Adler to the pillar of shame. The uglier he became, the stronger Thomas's future throne would be. Even if a so-called illegitimate child appeared, he would not be able to shake it. his status.

He nodded.

Arcadios understood what to do, and then he said: "His Highness Adler's staff, Dean, admitted to helping His Highness Adler contact his mistresses, and also gave me a list of mistresses in the city."

He took a list out of his armor, bent down, and handed it to Prince Thomas.

Thomas took it over, spread out the list, glanced at it quickly, and whistled involuntarily: "Adler, Adler, you're so good at playing, you dare to touch these women?"

He shook his head. The names on the list were really too shocking. As long as they were exposed, the entire royal city would fall into chaos. I am afraid that many ministers, wives and daughters of generals would jump off the bridge and commit suicide, right?
"We cannot let this list be leaked and get rid of Dean. Just say that he was buried in gratitude for His Highness Adler's kindness."

"Yes, Your Highness Thomas." Arcadios responded.

Then, Dutton said: "Your Highness Thomas, the Heartfilia family wants to contact you through my relationship."

The Heartfilia family?
Thomas still remembers that Adler and his team left the royal capital and went to Krokas City on their own initiative just to get to know and befriend the Heartfilia family. However, because of Adler's stupidity and arrogance, they instead spent time on someone else's birthday. There was a big fuss at the banquet.

If Adler after his death had known that the Heartfilia family, whom he had longed for and wanted, had come to find him, how angry he would have been!

Thomas wished he could see.

With the help of the Heartfilia family, the position of King Fiore must be firmly in his hands, right?

However, Thomas would regret his choice to cooperate with the Heartfilia family countless times in the next ten years. He never imagined that he would only keep the throne and nothing else would be left.

A change has taken place quietly and shockingly in the Kingdom of Fiore, and it has been in turmoil for more than ten years.
