Chapter 511: The infighting between the heirs

~7 min read 1,316 words

Facts also proved that Shengzai's speculation was correct. When Marquis Raeven and Zanac went back to sort out many things, they were shocked to find that Renner had set many traps for them.

Under Shengzai's reminder, Zanac had already excluded many dangers. As for Barbro's side, he could only let this Royal Brother ask for his own blessings...

"My sister is more terrifying and dangerous than I imagined. In order to let the Shengzai she likes ascend to the throne, even if she faces us as biological brothers, she doesn't hold back at all..."

Because of this incident, the relationship between Zanac and Shengzai eased a lot, and Zanac also had a deeper understanding of the madness and darkness of their sister.

The picture returns to the present. Zanac looks at the old King. Is his stopping Barbro from leading troops to save Gazef purely because he doesn't want him to make contributions?

This should only be considered one aspect. Another aspect is actually Zanac's worry that Barbro will definitely not be able to come back after this trip.

Shengzai will definitely not take action against Barbro, but it's hard to say about their good sister Renner...

Although Zanac fought with Barbro for the throne, he hadn't reached the level of wanting to kill his brothers, and he also had the confidence to suppress his mediocre brother in the case of Shengzai not fighting for the throne.

And Zanac, who was originally out of good intentions, didn't wait for the gratitude of Prince Barbro, and this First Prince even thought that Zanac was just worried that he would make contributions, so even if he made it cheap for Shengzai, he didn't intend to let himself go.

Just as Prince Barbro intended to open his mouth to say something again, the guards outside the door suddenly ran in in a hurry to report, and stated that Warrior Captain Gazef had already returned.

Hearing that Gazef returned safely, the old King was also overjoyed, and ordered him to be brought to the hall at this moment.

And when seeing the disheveled Gazef, bringing Nigun, the captain of "Sunlight Scripture," to the royal palace, and explaining the whole cause and effect of the matter, the kingdom ministers present were all stunned at the first opportunity.

"So that is to say, this whole thing is actually a conspiracy of the Theocracy. They disguised as imperial soldiers just to get rid of you, and then frame the empire, causing the war between the two countries.

And the reason why you were able to return safely this time is entirely because Shengzai predicted the enemy first and hired powerful adventurers to assist you?"

Hearing Gazef clarify the danger this time, the old King also let out a big sigh of relief.

Shengzai is indeed the pride of their kingdom's royal family! His two incompetent royal brothers, because they wanted to make contributions and perform, were still fighting to the death in front of him just now.

As a result, Shengzai, who had never appeared, not only didn't fight or grab, but had already solved everything while they were infighting.

If it weren't for Shengzai, if Gazef really died in the hands of the Theocracy this time, Ramposa III could fully imagine what a passive situation their entire kingdom would fall into.

First of all, Gazef is their "strongest combat power" of the Re-Estize Kingdom. If he dies, it will be a huge blow to the kingdom first.

And the kingdom has been at war with the empire for many years. Once it is learned that the kingdom's Warrior Captain died at the hands of the empire, the kingdom will definitely not let it go.

In the end, the kingdom and the empire will be exhausted from fighting, which will only let the Theocracy take the biggest advantage, and the other party will also be able to sit firmly in the dominant position of the human race.

"King, I think we should ask the Theocracy for an explanation for this matter, otherwise the Theocracy will act more and more unscrupulously in the future."

"King, I think it is inappropriate to directly question the Slane Theocracy about this matter.

No matter what, the Slane Theocracy is still the strongest country on the continent, and its elite troop, the Six Scriptures, is said to have many existences that have reached the Hero realm.

If it really conflicts with them, with the power of our kingdom at present, I am afraid..."

After Gazef returned, the focus of the discussion among the ministers and nobles began to change.

Because the Slane Theocracy was built by the legendary "Six Great Gods," the foundation is really amazing, and it has been in the leading position of the human race for so many years.

Although being calculated made the people of the kingdom very angry, there are also many nobles who worry that once the Theocracy is forced, the other party will clear them as heretics.

The national strength of their kingdom has indeed been flourishing over the years, but how many strong people have reached the Hero realm in their kingdom?

Warrior Captain Gazef counts as one, Third Prince Shengzai counts as one, and the adamantite-ranked adventurer Blue Rose also counts as one. Counting them all, it is not enough for two hands.

But the Slane Theocracy, it is said that the members of the "Black Scripture" are all strong people in the Hero realm, and there are even existences like "God-kin" and "Demigods." What does their kingdom have to fight against others?

Seeing the main war faction and the steady faction arguing a bit irreconcilably, Gazef, who was kneeling on one knee, hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Father, how about leaving this matter to Third Prince Shengzai to handle?"

Gazef, as the most loyal guard of Ramposa III, has always been quite abiding by his principles, never interfering in politics, only responsible for the King's guard work.

But this time he rarely gave his own views, which made Ramposa III quite surprised.

However, thinking that Gazef might be to repay the favor, and Shengzai's ability and talent are indeed much stronger than his other two stupid sons, so after pondering for a while, Ramposa III also agreed to his suggestion.

After the monarch-minister meeting, Barbro left unhappily, because he felt that his father seemed to value Shengzai more and more because of this matter.

And the throne that should have belonged to him is now becoming more precarious.

The Second Prince Zanac's expression was also not very good, because he originally wanted to fight for the task of negotiating with the Theocracy, because this was originally what he was good at.

"Why did you stop me just now? If I could take on the negotiation task with the Theocracy, this should be of great benefit to me, right?"

Facing Zanac's questioning, Marquis Raeven shook his head and said: "Your Highness, believe me, negotiation with the Theocracy is not an easy thing.

If you ask for too little benefit, the nobles will not be satisfied. If you ask for too much, and finally offend the Theocracy, you might be pushed out to take the blame later.

Shengzai is the most suitable for this job, because he has no intention of the throne and never leaves face for those nobles.

And this time, the people of "Sunlight Scripture" can be considered Shengzai's prisoners of war. No matter how he deals with them, others will not dare to have any complaints.

Your Highness now only needs to deal with Barbro with peace of mind, and even without your excessive operation, this throne will be yours in the future."

While saying this, Marquis Raeven also added in his heart: "Of course, the premise is that Shengzai really has no intention of the throne."
