Chapter 69 Epilogue

The funerals of Dagers and Ed were held shortly afterwards in the public cemetery on the outskirts of Leyden.

According to Alice, she believed that Dagus and Ed did not want to return to the Iris family's exclusive cemetery, so they simply buried their tombstones in Leiden City.

In order to prevent ghoul cultists from stealing the bodies in the future, Alice ignited the fuel on them with red eyes and patiently collected the remaining bones and ashes.

There were not many people who came to express their condolences at the funeral. In fact, after a major event like the Bars Rebellion, everyone was eager to distance themselves from the Iris family.

A gold-level transcendent is an indispensable backbone for any noble family in the Kingdom of Algrant. Even some smaller noble families may not have the combat power of the gold level.

The impact of Baars becoming a cultist is more profound than what is apparent on the surface. Anyone with some discernment will choose to remain silent and watch.

For the Saugetos family, Balth's death is of course unacceptable, but what is even more unacceptable is that he became a cultist and brought shame to the entire family.

If this matter cannot be thoroughly investigated in time, then when people mention the Sogetos family in the future, they will inevitably mention the traitor Bals. This will naturally be a heavy blow to the Sogetos family, which has a long family history.

Sometimes, the illusory reputation is nothing, but sometimes, its reputation is far higher than everything else.

At the very least, if the Saugetos family loses control of Leiden City because of Bals, it will be like a severe chop on the entire family, with some irritating potion sprinkled on it.

Leiden City is the western pearl of Algrant. During this period, business travel continued day and night, regardless of the cold or heat. Those inconspicuous business roads actually paved the lives of countless people.

Those business travelers walked on the trade roads where countless corpses were piled up, transporting treasures, spices, gems, and even weapons and equipment from other countries.

If the Iris family is responsible for nearly half of Algrant's military force and army, then the Sogetos family controls at least one-fifth of the wealth of the entire kingdom.

No one knows how many unknown business routes the Sogetos family has opened up under the obvious trade routes.

There are even rumors that the Saugetos family has had contact with the barbarian tribes in the west.

Of course, most of the gossip is nonsense, but the rumors may not be groundless.

And now, because of Bals, the wise Agrant III might use this as an excuse to take back the Sogetos family's control over Leiden City.

After all, no matter which king he is, he does not want to see his ministers holding huge wealth and military force.

In fact, this is what Bals is worried about and why he has to be cautious.

In the face of the "Hanging Sword" with a keen sense of smell and almost all-pervasiveness, no need to be too careful is too much.

However, someone eventually failed.

This also leads to...

"Aaron, we may have to be separated temporarily," Sartre said to Aaron in a low voice as he watched Alice digging a hole with a shovel, "However, I think it's best for you to leave Aaron for the time being. Climb the city.”

During this trip, he had accomplished his goal, successfully predicted the prophecy, and obtained his opportunity to advance. Then he would return to the Tower of Stars to accept the teacher's teaching and guidance, and try to advance to the Silver level.

He didn't want to receive news of Aaron's death when he came out of the tower again.

No matter how unclear he is about the situation in the Kingdom of Algrant, he still knows what the consequences will be like if he offends one of the kingdom's top wealthy families.

To be honest, Sartre was not optimistic about the subsequent reaction of the Iris family.

"I know it well, but...we still have to look at her." Aaron nodded slightly, glanced at Alice, and had a helpless smile on his face.

No one could have imagined that Alice, who now seemed strong and determined, was crying on his shoulder, and in her sobbing confession, Aaron finally gained a new understanding of her.

She lost two relatives in her life in one go. Without her mother, her father was probably still a cold-blooded creature who put family interests above all else. It would be too unkind to reason with her at this time.

Anyway, Dagos has returned the family estate to him, and his private inheritance is enough for the two newlyweds who have no idea how to make money to squander it for a while.

Just treat it as a holiday and have a happy birthday in two days.

Damn it, traveling to a different world to become a nobleman, he obviously came into contact with some big shots, but he really had never experienced the decadent life of being drunk and spending money like water...

"Although I think it is nonsense, I still want to emphasize it again, Mr. Aaron, the door of the Tower of Stars will always be open to you," Sartre solemnly promised again.

Finally, he thought for a moment and added, "As long as you can come to the Tower of Stars."

Siosande yawned while holding two black circles, and impatiently interrupted: "Senior Sartre, are you sure you can represent the Tower of Stars?"

"Teacher can represent you." Sartre, the chief apprentice of the Tower Master of the Star, responded calmly, causing Siosande to grind his teeth unwillingly.

"In addition, Sir Aaron, I have to warn you that although you have successfully advanced to the bronze level, the road to transcendence has just begun for you..." Sartre glanced at Garcia not far away, He whispered: "In fact, I recommend that you stay away from Badibila. It is much easier to escape the pursuit of the Sogetos family than to escape the pursuit of the cultists."

Yes, Aaron finally advanced. After witnessing many extraordinary events in succession, and even listening to the "Drinking Song" by the Catastrophic Throat of Death, he finally successfully advanced to the Bronze level.

"Don't worry, the Saugetos family may not dare to take action against the Iris family." Aaron smiled and patted Sartre's shoulder to express comfort.

But everyone present knew that this was just a word of comfort.

The Sogetos family must find a suitable scapegoat for this incident, and only in this way can they naturally take over Leiden City again.

As long as the conditions are reasonable enough and the benefits behind them are high enough, they can still return to Leyden City.

And again, what better targets than Aaron and Alice?

While Alice's identity may be a little tricky, it's only a little tricky.

He is just the heir of a family. There are many others in the Iris family like Alice.

After all, politics is the art of compromise.

Everyone can be weighed on the balance of interests.

Without exception.

Well, I won’t take a break during the Chinese New Year and will update as usual.

Let me tell you in advance. Also, I wish you all a happy New Year’s Eve~

I guess I was still coding or working during the Spring Festival Gala...
