A Tale of Strategies For the Throne

In the violent shaking of the stone temple, Gallan and his party quickly left the underground stone temple.

After returning to the ground, they did not dare to delay for a minute and immediately ordered everyone to evacuate the place.

Soon after everyone left the valley, huge roars were heard one after another. At this moment, the earth shook the mountain, and the earth shook as if it were about to crack.

The horses made a horrified hissing sound and were dragged to death by their respective owners, so they fled without madness.

The crowd watched the valley where they were not long ago collapsing and sinking in the roar.

The peaks around the valley also collapsed for the most part, the boulders rolled down, the hillside cracked, slipped along the valley, and fell into the collapsed valley.

In the end, the cracked mountain buried all the bottom of the collapsed valley, and no one could step into the deep ancient stone palace underground.

The wind roared past, causing Heimos's forehead to constantly flick across his eyes.

He watched deeply the ruin of the collapsed valley.

I can't tell why, but when the Shixia Temple collapsed, he suddenly felt relieved.

It was like some kind of intangible existence that had been tightly wrapped around him and bound him suddenly disappeared, and the whole person relaxed.

It was like a heavy chain that had been pressing him finally broke at this moment, giving him the illusion of being relieved.

He closed his eyes and the wind swept over him, bringing a cool breath in the middle of the night.

At this moment, he had an unprecedented sense of lightness and comfort.

Aside, Gallan glanced at Huimus, and a soft smile appeared in his eyes.

He said nothing, but patted Huimus's arm lightly, then smiled and turned away.

…………

After the valley collapsed, Garland did not set off immediately, but camped for a few more days nearby.

He ordered the soldiers to search around, and after confirming that there were no hidden occultists in the ruins of the valley, he ordered the return to the royal city.

On the way back, the spirit of the others was okay, except that the Prince of Canal’s West Asia was out of tune with everyone. He bowed his head and hardly communicated with anyone, even his knight could not tell him. a few words.

When he camped at night, he entered the camp account early.

When he hurried during the day, he followed Garlan without a word. Although he followed, he never took the initiative to say a word to Gallan. Unless Gallan talked to him, he would occasionally hum or pop a few words.

It was late at night, and water-like moonlight flowed over the earth.

The camp was very quiet. Except for the night soldiers outside the camp, most people had already fallen asleep in the camp.

A shallow lake refracts the moonlight in the night sky, and a little star shines on the clear water, sparkling.

Garland sat on the rock by the lake and looked up at the night sky.

Heimus stood beside the teenager, not looking at the night sky, nor the lake, but Garland.

"You should know that I was abandoned by the Eyas at a very young age and have been wandering in the slums."

"When I was more than seven years old, I and the other children in the slums were taken away by the animists and sent to the altar."

Heymos spoke calmly and could not hear much emotion.

He seemed to be just talking about one thing.

"The other children have been killed. I am the last one, but I don't want to die. I am not willing to die there, let alone die for an unknown god."

From the day he remembered, he lived just like the dirty and humble mouse living in the stinky ditch.

He never believed in so-called gods.

"Although I don't know the reason, it may be because of the fear of death. I suddenly went crazy. I don't have the memory of when I was crazy. I only knew that when I woke up, I saw the body of a place..."

He says,

"That was my first murder."

When he didn't know anything, he killed people, many people.

At that time, he was very young, looking at the pile of corpses in front of him, his brain blank.

He knelt on the ground and looked at the blood in his hands, shaking, almost breathless, and the whole person almost collapsed.

In the end, he forced himself to get up with strong self-control, and stumbled away from the place like **** for him.

...

Later, murder became a habit.

In order to keep himself alive and kill others, it has become a matter of course for him.

"The man said to me that I was branded on my body and destined to be a sacrifice for God. One day, I will come back..."

While Huimus spoke, Gallan still looked up at the starry sky.

He rested his chin on one hand, watching the sky quietly, listening quietly to Heimus.

Following Gallan's gaze, Huimus also looked to the sky.

After watching for a while, he said: "When I was a kid, I didn't like this kind of night... The starlight was too bright, I wanted to steal something to eat, it was easy to be found."

Garland turned his head, his gaze falling from the starry sky to the face of Heimus looking up at the starry sky.

The finely shattered starlight fell on Huimus's face, reflecting the honey-like luster of brown skin.

A little bit of starlight reflected in the golden-red eyes, the cheeks were beautiful, and the slightly raised eye corners were like swords, showing more and more sharp edges.

You can't move your eyes when you look at it.

"now what?"

Garland asked.

Heimus's eyes fell back to Gallan, and he did not answer.

"Is the starry sky beautiful now?"

Garland sitting on the rock asked him.

The teenager leaned his head slightly with his hands behind him, looking up at him with his face up, and Jin Yi bent the crescent of the crescent in the night sky.

The surface of the water shimmered, reflecting the figure of a boy dressed in a starlight.

"...Beautiful."

Huimus answered.

He looked down at Gallan, his eyes soft.

The sky is full of stars, endless, shining like gems on the dark night, as beautiful as dreams.

Thousands of stars, can't compare to the smile of the blonde boy in front of him.

"Hymos."

"Ok?"

"When you are under control, think about me more."

"..."

"Don't think about those messy things before. Just think about it, I said, I will protect you until the end."

Garland said,

"In case you encounter similar things again and again, you just keep thinking about this sentence, you know?"

There was a moment of silence under the stars.

Then, Huimos smiled and hummed low.

…………

……………………

After a few days, on a lively afternoon, Gallan and his team returned silently to the palace.

Under the careful arrangement of the high priest Xie Muer, no one noticed that the young king left the royal city for more than ten days.

Although Galland did not want Xie Muer to know what happened in the stone temple, but with so many knights following him, he could not seal everyone's mouth.

So Xie Muer soon learned all the things from the knights who followed Garland, and the thrilling process.

As a matter of course, the high priest of Samash immediately rushed to Garlan who had just returned to the palace and had no time to breathe. As the name suggests, he asked Wang to listen to the admonishment. Lan scolded hard.

From noon to night, he gave Galran ‘admonishment’ for four hours without drinking a sip.

However, the self-conscious Gallan could only listen to the "admonition" of his high priest honestly. He had to nod from time to time to admit his mistakes and give Xiemuer a smile.

Until the evening, the female chief Tapiti came over to interrupt Xiemuer on the grounds of dinner, and then he released the siege for Gallan.

In order to treat and comfort himself who had been dizzy and trained by Xie Muer, Gallan ate a meal without any politeness, then went directly to the bed and slept to death.

After a good night's sleep, Gallan, who just felt that he was full of blood and was resurrected, twitched at the corner of his mouth when he saw the pile of government documents.

Then, under the watchful eye of his high priest, he began a miserable life buried in the papers from morning to night in addition to eating and resting.

Prince Kanal, rescued by Gallan, stayed in the palace as a noble guest, and Xiemuer was responsible for receiving him.

West Asia still looks cold and silent, except for the necessary dialogue, almost no one talks with anyone.

Moya, the royal knight of the Kanal royal family who had previously stayed in the palace to recuperate, was much better. When he saw the rescue of Prince Westia, he was very excited. Since then, he and another young knight have been stalking around West Asia.

After arriving in the palace of Aaron Landis, West Asia shut himself in the room for two days without seeing anyone or talking to anyone.

Even the meals were brought into the room by his knight, and then served out after eating.

Xie Muer reported this incident to Gallan. Gallan pondered for a while and then replied that he didn't need to do anything deliberately, as the prince of West Asia meant.

After he finished speaking, he continued to bury himself among the piles of documents.

After shutting herself in the room for two full days, West Asia came out herself.

Then he made a request directly to Xiemuer, saying that he wanted to turn around in the royal city and take a look.

Xie Muer agreed, but said that in order to protect his safety, he would send someone to accompany him-of course, which also means surveillance.

West Asia agreed without hesitation.

auzw.com For the whole week, West Asia accompanied the two knights sent by Xie Muer, and he and his two knights kept going around in the royal city.

After returning from the night, the cavalier who accompanied West Asia would go to Xie Muer to report West Asia's behavior today.

What surprised Xie Muer was that although West Asia kept walking around in the king's city, she just watched and did nothing.

Every corner of the Wangcheng, whether it was near the palace, the bazaar, or the gathering place of the poor on the edge of the Wangcheng, he looked at it, including the commercial and trade department that is now crowded and like a cloud. After watching for a long time.

After reading the inside of Wangcheng, he ran outside of Wangcheng to see nearby towns, villages, and even the road construction site under construction.

However, he evaded consciously in all areas related to the military, and did not approach.

The strange behavior of Prince West Asia made Xie Muer completely unclear what the purpose of this little prince was.

After more than a week, West Asia, who had watched the Wangcheng and the vicinity of the Wangcheng, stopped this behavior.

Immediately afterwards, he shut himself in the room all day and night.

When he came out the next day, West Asia's eyes were flushed, and his eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes.

Obviously, he did not rest in the room, but stayed up all day and night.

Looking at Moya who had been standing in front of the door, West Asia said: "Tell the High Priest, as Prince Canal, I beg to see King Galland of Aaron Landis."

He added,

"Secret sighting."

Moya breathed, and he looked at West Asia solemnly.

"Prince, are you... determined?"

West Asia nodded slightly.

Moya said nothing more, he leaned down and knelt, saluted Westia, then got up and left.

West Asia took a deep breath. He stood in the courtyard and closed his eyes. The bright sunlight shone on him, a little hot and a little hot.

His skin was pale and abnormal because he had been underground for a long time without sunlight.

He closed his eyes and his eyelashes flickered slightly. His hands on his side were clenched, so hard that his knuckles were white.

This decision I made...

Sister Wang, you can understand it, right?

I will never forgive those guys.

I will never let those guys get what they want.

at all costs.

…………

Late night soon came again, and the entire palace was quiet.

Taking advantage of the night, Kehos evaded others and secretly brought West Asia and the two Canal knights to Galan's palace.

After entering the room, West Asia saw Gallan sitting on the golden chair, and the high priest Xie Muer standing aside.

The knight of the scorching sun brought him forward, quickly walked to the back of Gallan, and then stood there quietly.

West Asia glanced around, and after confirming the people in the room, his eyes fell on Gallan.

The young king of Aaron Landis looked at him with a calm look.

Garland sat quietly, waiting for him to speak.

Withdrawing his gaze, West Asia leaned over and landed on one knee.

He lowered his head and saluted Garland.

"King Gallan, thank you for saving me from the hands of all things. I will remember your kindness for me."

He says,

"Although it is very presumptuous, but I have a very important thing to ask you, I hope you can agree."

The high priest standing behind Garland frowned.

"Prince West Asia, I guess what your request is."

He bluntly refused directly.

"But I'm sorry, but our country has just ended the war, I am afraid I can't help you."

The prince of Canal came to Aaron Landis in order to ask Aaron Landis to help him return.

At this point, everyone present knew it.

However, not to mention that Aaron Landis, who had just ended the war, was in need of rest and recuperation. Even if Aaron Landis did not experience the war, it would not be possible to sacrifice his soldiers to help the prince of his country recover.

Regarding Xiemuer's refusal, neither West Asia nor the two knights behind him had long expected it, and did not feel embarrassed.

The two knights lowered their heads, waiting for their prince to continue.

"The reason why all things teach me to imprison me is to get the treasures of Kanal's royal family from me."

West Asia continued.

"In this world, only I know the location of the treasure and have the key to unlock it."

Xie Muer stunned, and then immediately reacted.

It turns out so.

He was still thinking, anyway, he was a prince of a country. It was so stupid to ask the king of another country to help him regain his country.

It turned out that the prince was intending to exchange the property for Aaron Landis's help.

This time, he said nothing more and turned his gaze to Gallan.

Like him, both West Asia and the two knights behind West Asia looked at the young king sitting quietly with anxious eyes.

In the eyes of everyone, Gallan shook his head very simply.

"Sorry, Prince of Canal, maybe your treasure has a huge amount of wealth, but I don't need it."

If the property of Aaron Landis was still stretched, especially after he began to build roads on a large scale, but now, the Trade Department hosted by Tal is a daily struggle, and the daily commercial tax is almost straight. rise.

What's more, he has already begun, intending to promote the Trade and Industry Department to the other Zhili cities of Aaron Landis.

Once the Commerce and Trade Department is established in cities across the country, by that time, he will never be short of money.

Therefore, Galland did not intend to let his soldiers sacrifice for other countries for the so-called treasure of the Kanal royal family.

Galland simply refused to make the two knights behind West Asia look very unattractive, glanced at each other, and the bottom of his eyes was a bit gloomy.

If even this huge amount of wealth can't impress King Garland, then they can no longer find any bargaining chips for Aaron Landis to help them return.

Compared with the loss of the knights, the young children are still very calm.

"No, King Gallan, I am not going to dedicate you to the royal treasure."

He says,

"Please send Aaron Randice's powerful iron ride to Canal to drive away the Gasdad who dominated Canal, because that will be your responsibility."

"Guarding Kanal, guarding the people of Kanal, will be your responsibility."

This time, not only Xiemuer frowned again, but even Kehuos stared at West Asia with a sharp eye.

They couldn't figure out how the little prince could say such cheeky words.

However, West Asia ignored the needle-like eyes of the two and still knelt on the ground, looking up at Gallan.

He said: "Because Canal will be your kingdom."

He looked at Gallan and said, "I will give you the throne of Kanal as the last descendant of the Kanal royal family."

"King Garland, Canal will be under your throne."

Suddenly there was silence.

At this moment, almost everyone's breathing was still.

The words of Prince West Asia made everyone in the room look stunned.

Especially the two knights behind him were unbelievable, and the young knight showed grief and indignation. He thought that his master was persecuted, he would get up desperately--

However, he was pressed down by the Moya Knight.

At the beginning, Moya, who was also unbelievable, glanced at the young prince before him, and there was a sad look in his eyes. He lowered his head in pain and kept silent.

The room was silent for a long while. After a while, Gallan's voice broke the silence.

"why?"

He said, "Prince West Asia, although I have a life-saving grace for you, I don't think this grace is so great that you are willing to give up your throne."

"I can understand your eagerness to help Kanal return, but it is too much to be willing to send the throne for this... false."

West Asia smiled.

Rather than laughing, it was a squeak from the throat.

"Restoration?"

He smiled and said that his eyes were all dark.

His eyes seemed to sink into the abyss endlessly.

"It's impossible."

He said, "The descendants of the Kanal royal family have been cut off, and it is no longer possible to return to the country."

Behind him, the Moya knight lowered his head deeply, with an extremely painful look on his face.

"When the Gasdars caught me, they couldn't kill me, and they worried that I might be rescued."

At this moment his eyes were slightly empty, and West Asia said in a calm and terrible tone.

He says,

"In order to completely solve the future problems, they directly started to cut off the possibility of my birth."
