The Troublesome Hero Among the Heroes

There is a lot of gossip today in the royal capital of the Kingdom of Messetta, Matisse, because a group of elves came to the city early in the morning.

As a neighboring country of the Spirit King Court, the appearance of the Spirit King is not surprising. They will come here in two or three years.

It’s just that the political situation in Matrese is a bit weird recently. The size of noble in the royal capital is almost all Closed Door Politely Declining Visitors, and the nobles who came to the royal capital from Fiefdom are all in their own courtyard. The self-cultivation and self-cultivation make many high-end consumer places very good.

According to unconfirmed rumors, King Juan’s health is getting worse, and Juan’s younger brother Anthony Count has been very active recently.

Everyone knows Anthony's plan, so the Spirit King, who is a friendly neighbor, sent an envoy to him. It is inevitable that people will have the idea of ​​"Are they coming to support a certain party?"

As for whether the elves support Sophia Princess or Anthony Count, the citizens have been secretly guessing.

The situation in the Kingdom of Meseta has been very stable since the founding of the nation.

To the south of him is the Spirit King Court, so there is almost no need to worry about the security of the southern border. The elves don't have much desire for the land. With their lifespan, it is enough to wait until the Messetta Kingdom itself is over before as easy as blowing off dust to take this land.

To the east of the kingdom is the Kingdom of Saarland. The two royal families have been married for many years. The late Queen Meseta is the twin younger sister of the king of Saarland. In the foreseeable future, both sides will fight Can't get up.

To the north of the kingdom are three dukedoms. They are also worried that the Meseta kingdom will find an excuse to annex them, and they will not be fine by themselves.

The west of the kingdom is Linhai. It’s not good for everyone to hunt happily.

As the country with the largest number of ancestral elves per capita, the people in the Messeta Kingdom are all infected with the elves' personality that is optimistic about their piece of land and live by themselves, and lacks the desire to expand abroad.

As for the court coup, the citizens said that they only listened to the wandering bard and sang the cases of other countries, and they have not experienced this kind of thing that sounds very difficult to deal with.

Although the citizens talked a lot, but as the cornerstone of the country's rule, the reaction of the nobles of the kingdom of Meseta made those foreign envoys who are concerned about the situation in the country bewildered.

Perhaps it was influenced by the neighbors of the elves. Now everyone's attitude is "Always support the King Your Majesty, and whoever is the King supports who."

Anthony, who worked silently for the throne, felt that his brain hurts day by day. He opened countless conditions, made countless wishes, and painted countless pie. As a result, only a few people were willing. Follow him, everyone else is watching.

This morning, Anthony walked hurriedly to a small building in the back garden of his house.

The two-story building is not big, each floor is a room.

The room on the first floor looks like a library, all around the walls are filled with bookshelves, and the bookshelves are filled with primitive or brand-new books.

On the recliner in the middle of the room, an old man with withered red hair was lying on it, turning a page from time to time with a book in his hand.

Anthony walked lightly after entering the study. He walked to the recliner and said respectfully to the old man who was reading: "Santos teacher, there is new news."

Santos lightly nodded, motioning for Anthony to continue.

Anthony said: "Figo’s action failed the night before. There was an expert in that caravan."

"Yesterday morning, Sophia was protected by an adventurer in the caravan. The adventurer planned to go back from the neighboring country in the north. My people heard him and followed along."

"Sofia was beheaded while resting in the cave that night, the adventurer Wounded and escaped."

Santos turned over a page and said calmly: "Is the news confirmed?"

Anthony said with certainty: "Confirmed, the news is They passed it back with the saker falcon, and the code word on it was correct."

Santos was there quietly reading the book without turning a page.

Anthony is waiting for the result of the teacher's thinking.

After a long time, Santos asked: "Are there any results from other people's contacts?"

Anthony shook the head silently.

Santos sighed and said: "Forget it, these people have been at ease under the protection of the elves for too long, and they have lost their enterprising spirit."

"At this time they Don’t mess up, it’s the greatest help to you."

"Don’t show up in front of others in the past few days. The news of Sophia’s murder must never be spread from you."

>

Anthony thought for a while and said: "Tonight Juan will hold a grand dinner to welcome the Elf Mission, when the time comes, I pretend to be drunk and drunk and need to rest for a few days."

Santos shook his head and said: "Don't pretend, you will drink until the stomach bleeds and come back tonight."

Since the teacher said so, Anthony can only nodded to agree.

As a very self-motivated person, Anthony has strong self-control, and the wine can not be stained, so as not to expose flaws in it.

This time I need to drink to hurt my stomach in order to stay in seclusion temporarily. Although it feels uncomfortable, I have to do it.

For him, there is no retreat now, and the plan to seize the position has entered the final and most critical part, and there is no room for carelessness.

At noon, Anthony left Santos’ small building.

Twenty years ago, Anthony accidentally disturbed the donkey that Santos was riding while hunting, causing the old man Santos to fall seriously.

The father of Anthony at the time, the king of the Meseta Kingdom at that time ordered Anthony to take pictures of Old Gu people in person until he recovered completely.

During the period, Anthony discovered that the old man named Santos was a scholar full of wisdom. When the old man recovered completely, he hired this old man as his teacher.

Twelve years ago, when the queen gave birth to Sofia, she died of an accidental dystocia, and King Juan suffered a serious illness until today.

Since then, Anthony has moved a little bit of thought.

As the days passed, that little bit of careful thought gradually grew in Anthony's deep in one's heart.

Anthony walking in the garden thought about every detail of this operation, especially he must consider how to obtain the support of the Spirit King Court, at least so that they would not help each other as before.

Other countries can also reassure them and make them believe that their policies are the same as before.

As for the first northward annexation of three dukedoms to share the spoils with the military, only a few soldiers are interested in it.

But he believes that just like the Santos teacher said, as long as those people taste the sweetness and awaken the desire in their hearts, then the whole country will help him.

At this moment, an arrow shot at Anthony from a short distance.
