Kingdom’s Bloodline

Everyone in the secret path was anxiously waiting for the result of Nicolai's negotiations. Just fell in love with Lewen Novel Network WwW. LWXS520. COM

Thales tried his best to induce the crimes of the few Hell Rivers and improve his ear power.

The conversation between the two at the entrance of the cave finally reached his ears reluctantly.

"What?" Nicolai's voice came, "Is the Scarlet Witch going to use her best ability again?"

"Speaking of me surrendering?"

The Scarlet Witch just looked at him quietly.

Her gaze was calm but serious.

Even Thales, who was hiding in the distance and eavesdropping, still had the illusion of being on his back.

"As I said, you are on the wrong side," Cassan's expression suddenly turned cold: "The White Blade Guard should be loyal to Exeter, not a certain king."

"Don't you think so?"

Thales, who eavesdropped, frowned: What exactly does the Scarlet Witch want to do?

Really want to say down Nicolai?

The Meteor gripped his knife tightly.

Nicolai snorted: "As a traitor who kills the king, isn't this sentence too harsh?"

The Scarlet Witch lifted her chin.

"A traitor?" Ms. Kashan's eyes flashed fiercely: "Do you really know what the king you are loyal to is going to do in order to continue his family?"

Nicolai shook his head slowly, and Thales guessed that he was showing that uncomfortable disdainful smile as usual.

But the Meteor soon stopped laughing, and so did Thales.

I saw Kashan cast her eyes behind him, and said coldly: "For example..."

"Pretending to be a child without Walton's blood, as the heir of Dragon Clouds City?"

Nikolai's back froze.

He wasn't the only one who had this reaction.

a bolt from the blue.

This is how Thales, who is eavesdropping, feels now.

He opened his mouth wide in shock, and couldn't help but look at the little slippery head who lowered his head in thought.

God.

God.

Scarlet Witch she...

Miranda noticed Thales' unusual behavior and frowned: "What's wrong with you?"

Thales still kept his mouth wide open, his face full of shock.

He widened his eyes, stretched out his hand and pressed his chin in embarrassment: "That...move your jaw..."

Miranda raised her eyebrows and turned her head away.

But for Thales, the cold words of the Scarlet Witch continued: "He also placed his hope on the power of the Star Kingdom, put the handle in the hands of the Canxing family, and put the initiative on the succession issue of Dragon Clouds City. , sent to Fuxing Palace?"

Nikolai's back didn't respond.

But Thales guessed that his expression must be getting uglier at the moment.

"Waiting for the Star Kingdom, waiting for the secret department, waiting for that weird boy to turn Dragon Clouds City into their internal response in Exeter," Kashan said in an extremely cold tone, contrary to her previous smile: "Change Become a puppet of the Canxing royal family?"

Thales in the distance closed his eyes and covered his face in pain.

"It's okay," Thales said weakly, and he waved his hand to Cohen who looked at him suspiciously: "My face is numb, rub it."

The Scarlet Witch snorted coldly.

"These things, as the leader of the White Blade Guard, the king's most trusted personal guard captain, right-hand man, Lord Siri Nicolai," Kashan turned her head, eyes complicated: "Do you know all about it?"

"Or do you also think that all this doesn't matter?"

Nikolai's back was still frozen in place.

His hand was on the handle of the knife, and he didn't move for a long time.

The meteorite exhaled with difficulty, and the voice reached Thales' ears: "You know."

"The dark room has indeed collected these things." The Scarlet Witch narrowed her eyes slightly: "Isn't that enough?"

"That's... the reason for your regicide?" Nicolai's voice was not coherent, as if something was blocking his windpipe.

"It's a pity, but this kind of thing..." Cassan sighed: "If His Majesty trusts me a little bit and lets me help him figure out a solution instead of making his own decisions, it will have another ending."

Nicolai didn't speak right away.

If Thales could see his face, he would find that the meteorite's eyes were calm, and his pale face was slowly turning red.

If Michael was here, he'd recognize it: it was a sign that the old chap was about to get angry.

And since the young Nicolai became the commander twenty years ago, he rarely lost his temper.

"A little more trust?" Nicolai sneered, "Why didn't you show 'a little' loyalty to His Majesty?"

Hearing this, Thales exhaled and shook his head slowly.

old king...

You... you died because of your servant's infidelity? Or die of the king's unbelief?

Kassan narrowed her eyes.

"Why do you think he doesn't trust you?" The meteorite's tone became more and more cold: "Do you think his vigilance and suspicion of you came suddenly overnight?"

The Scarlet Witch didn't speak.

"Twelve years ago," Nicolai's voice was stiff, and he bit the words out of his teeth full of anger: "His Royal Highness, when the couple was assassinated, the assassin who lurked in..."

Cass remained silent.

But from the second when Nicolai said "Assassin", her eyes instantly released different complex colors.

Thales was slightly taken aback when he heard these words.

Suriel's death?

assassin? The assassin sent by the stars?

"That handsome little boy, remember?" Nicolai said fiercely, "I had already stopped him..."

"If it wasn't for your dark room," Nicolai's words trembled slightly: "If it wasn't for your people to obstruct it, I would have chopped that assassin into pieces a long time ago!"

Thales raised his eyebrows.

He understood what Nikolai said, and panted subconsciously.

That assassin... the assassin sent by the stars.

The assassin was actually... protected by the people in the dark room?

Kashan lowered her head slightly, stared at the ground, and fell into a long silence.

Nicolai panted heavily: "Yes, I found out later, but His Majesty told me to keep silent."

Thales noticed that the meteorite's legs were shaking slightly.

Only the meteorite himself knew—these were two unhealed arrow wounds.

"You knew before that, didn't you?" The meteorite gritted his teeth: "You know the existence of that assassin, you may even have known that the stars will send assassins!"

"Or, is this just a scene arranged in your darkroom?"

"It didn't end until the death of His Royal Highness Suriel?"

Hearing all this, Thales' expression changed several times, and his heart was in a state of confusion.

what happened?

The one who sent the assassin was the stars, but according to Nicolai...

Why?

Twelve years ago... the dark room witnessed, even acquiesced in the death of Prince Suriel?

At that moment, the Scarlet Witch's eyes moved slightly.

"Now," Nicolai sneered, his words sharp as a knife: "Do you know why His Majesty doesn't trust you?"

"Just relying on your cheap and fickle so-called 'loyalty'?"

The Scarlet Witch opened her mouth slightly, but she didn't make a sound—the old woman who had always answered fluently and calmly seemed to have her throat suddenly blocked.

"That incident..." After a few seconds, Ms. Kashan spoke softly, her words filled with deep exhaustion: "It was an accident."

"I was caught off guard, too."

What responded to her was Nicolai's disdainful pooh.

"Your Majesty keeps silent about this, and I don't know what kind of tricks you are playing, maybe that assassin is your undercover agent in the secret department, maybe not..." The meteorite said viciously:

"Maybe it's for Exeter's future, the king's benefit, an excuse to go south to go to war—anyway, you always have an excuse, and no one knows if it's true or not. Maybe only the Black Prophet can tell the difference."

The Scarlet Witch's expression hadn't moved for a long time.

"But!" The Meteor's words turned cold.

Nikolai's voice was full of anger, as ugly as a torn bellows: "The king and his blood, what are they in your eyes? Existences that don't match expectations and can be eliminated at will?"

Kashan raised her head slowly, her eyes subtle.

"Please don't say that."

Kashan shook her head, with deep regret in her words: "After all, we are not a secret department."

Thales' expression changed again.

He heard what Kashan meant.

[If it doesn’t meet expectations, it can be cleared at will...]

【After all, we are not a secret department...】

These two sentences.

What do these two sentences... mean?

Thales stood there blankly.

Nicolai said nothing.

The face of the meteorite returned to pale, and dark currents surged in his eyes.

"Search everything, suspect everything, eliminate hidden dangers, and show no mercy," he spat hard: "They called you a 'witch', there is really nothing wrong with that."

"Once you have doubts, what you want will always be shady means."

"This is the deep-rooted instinct of you people who live in the shadows—trust and loyalty are worthless to you," said the meteorite grimly: "Whether you or the secret department—you group of empires left The sores and festering pus."

But at this moment, the Scarlet Witch lost her indifferent expression.

I saw her smile slightly.

"Very good," Cassan said softly, "Now, we're starting to talk."

With that tone, it was as if she had just grabbed the biggest bargaining chip.

Nicolai shuddered slightly.

Hearing this, Thales frowned slightly.

He couldn't understand it.

"After the tragedy twelve years ago, in his later years, His Majesty Nun tried his best to find a balance between country and family, territory and blood." The Scarlet Witch smiled as before, and there was an inexplicable sadness in her faint tone: "Now I'm sure of that."

But Thales was really at a loss.

Why?

Why did Kashan's words suddenly change?

Nikolai's shoulders began to heave.

"What's the meaning?"

Nicolai's voice came slowly: "What exactly do you want?"

Thales held his breath, trying to hear the Scarlet Witch's answer.

Kashan looked at his expression for a full three seconds.

Then the Scarlet Witch smiled.

"I'm here to find an answer."

"And," she said calmly, "something I don't have."

"For example," the Scarlet Witch walked in front of Nicolai without any scruples, not caring about the danger that he might attack and capture her, with a solemn look in her eyes: "You are unconditionally loyal to His Majesty Nun."

"And his unreserved trust in you."
