Reading Room
Since returning from seeing Huimos, Gallan has been pondering a question.
It has always puzzled him very much, and has troubled him for a long time.
Is this guy Huimos really in love for the first time?
It's not like the first time!
As a guy who hasn't had any emotional experience for more than two decades, Huimos should be an innocent virgin.
He should be the same as himself who has never been in a relationship for several lifetimes. This is logical!
But why is Heimos' sultry skills so skilled?
Obviously it was just such a simple sentence. Obviously he didn't have that kind of feeling for Huimos, but at that moment, he still felt that his heart was pierced by something.
There was a strange feeling of inexplicability.
... Maybe it's because that person is simply confessing his thoughts.
The understatement seemed to be something that could not be taken for granted.
Only words that really come from the heart can move people's hearts the most.
Gallan sighed, he raised his hand and pressed his temple, only feeling a headache.
This is just great.
The plan to leave the royal city can only be postponed.
Even if he didn't intend to accept Heymos' feelings, no matter how dull and heartless he was, he couldn't do anything like Heymos running away.
After returning to his palace, he began to discuss with his subordinates.
"It's true that something is strange."
Garland said, "We all think that Heymos will not do stupid things like killing royal knights, and the facts are true. Heymos told me that he did take the talisman, but only secretly. Stealing is not killing people and grabbing charms."
"Furthermore, he also said that the two royal knights who were guarding outside the door stood there well when they stole the talisman and left."
Kaihus nodded.
"In other words, someone was stalking secretly, and after Prince Huimos left, killed the two royal knights and blamed them on Prince Huimos."
The little fat man hurriedly said: "I used to secretly...no, I accidentally detected it. There is a separate stone house behind King Camos's bedroom, which is guarded by the knights of the Royal Knights all the year round. It is said that Aaron Landi The valuables handed down by the kings of the past dynasties are stored in it, and the soldier amulet has been kept in it."
"So, according to common sense, Prince Huimos received a letter from Anu who flew to the royal city in the evening, and then immediately summoned the main ministers and official generals."
Kaihuos said, "During the proceedings, he took out the soldier talisman, that is to say, he stole the soldier talisman during the time between the gathering and the arrival of the people in the palace."
"Later, he led his troops to leave the royal city in the early hours of the night."
"And the knights guarding the talisman must be on duty. I estimate that their exchange time is probably between early morning and sunrise. The group of knights who came to rotate found the body of their companion and found that the talisman had been stolen."
"After daybreak, they learned that Prince Huimos used the talisman to mobilize the army. Knowing that the talisman was in his hands, they naturally identified the murderer as Prince Huimos."
"It can be guessed that, in the eyes of the Royal Knights, the reason why Prince Huimos rushed to set off in the early morning so eagerly is a manifestation of his guilty conscience and worry about the incident."
Kaihus pondered for a while, he looked at Garlan, seemingly hesitant to speak.
And Gallan also noticed the look of his guardian knight.
He asked strangely: "Kyjos, is there anything inconvenient for you to say?"
"...Your Majesty, the point of the matter now is not actually who wants to frame Prince Huimos, but that person's purpose."
"Purpose?"
"Yes, Prince Huimos is a prince after all, and his status is honorable. Even if he is convicted, it is impossible to impose punishment on him. What will happen to him? At best, he will leave the army and stay in the palace honestly. That's it."
"However, one thing is certain. Once the crime is convicted, then Prince Heimos will definitely be..."
Having said this, the one-eyed knight paused.
He looked at Garlan and spoke word by word.
"Deprived of the right to inherit the throne."
Gallan was startled, and heard Kaihuos repeat it again with a heavier tone.
"In other words, the purpose of the man who blamed the prince Heimos was not to expect him to be treated, but to make him lose the right to succeed to the throne."
Garland thought for a while, and he said, "In other words, we can start from this aspect and find the person who framed Heimos, right?"
Gallan's words caused all his subordinates to choke for a while, and even the Taputi magistrate looked dumbfounded.
She understood what Cayhus said so deliberately, that there was a certain deep meaning in the words.
But the prince didn't hear it at all.
Tapti couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.
However, in this way, whether she was or Kaihuos, they could see it all.
That kind of thought... the prince hadn't moved at all in his heart, so he didn't realize it at all.
Kaihus stood up.
"I don't know for a while, I'll go take a closer look." He exhorted, "Prince, in order to deal with tomorrow's affairs, you must rest well and keep your spirits up."
Kaihuos got up and left, and the Taputi magistrate also retired. She was going to prepare the prince's dinner and the soup for tonight.
Only Tal dullingly seemed unwilling to leave, and after everyone else had left, he leaned in mysteriously.
"Prince." He approached Garland and whispered: "Even if Prince Huimos is convicted, the worst result will be deprivation of the throne."
He paused, and continued to keep his voice low.
"If he loses his inheritance rights, wouldn't it be great for you...isn't it?"
"what?"
"I mean, maybe that's it, Prince Heimos is so powerful, in the future... the throne... well, it will definitely bring you a lot of trouble, so now with such a good opportunity, you just... …"
The little fat man said vaguely, winked at Gallan a few times, and then ran away without waiting for Gallan to answer.
Gallan stared blankly at the round but very flexible back disappearing before his eyes.
After returning to his senses, he suddenly realized.
Yup!
He finally turned his mind.
Huimos has no right to succeed to the throne, and the throne is firmly his!
Garlan sat and thought.
The reason why he has been anxious to leave the palace is because he knows that he can't win Huimos in the throne battle, and doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes and end up miserably. That's why he decided to take the initiative to give up fighting for the throne. He didn't bother to care about whether he would be cursed by the gods after reincarnation. He just wanted to live well in this life.
However, now there is an excellent opportunity in front of him.
This thing about Huimos...
As Kaihuos said, Huimos is the prince, after all, no one dares to do anything to him, only King Camos has the power to make judgments on him.
But King Camos would naturally not really do anything to Huimos.
In other words, for Himos, the worst result is being deprived of inheritance rights, and there is no other danger at all.
The sky gradually darkened, and the light on the side of the young man sitting by the window gradually dimmed.
Gallan lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
His hand on the table was clenched into a fist little by little.
This is the best opportunity.
Or maybe it's his only chance.
Scenes from the past flashed through his mind constantly.
My own life in the original world...
The hesitation when first came to this world...
Also, the scenes of death again and again...
…………
One night passed, bright sunlight shining on the prosperous city of Aaron Landis.
The huge golden palace stands above the ground, shining in the sunlight, looking down on the whole city from a high level.
Seen from below, the high stairs made the entire huge palace seem to rise above the clouds, magnificent and magnificent.
At this moment, an extremely important discussion is going on in the chamber inside this glorious palace.
The number of participants was not large, but only a dozen people, but they were all the most important figures in Aaron Landis.
It can be said that the people here at the moment are all the central figures with great power in the Aaron Landis regime, as well as several military commanders and navy generals.
On the high platform at the top of the spacious chamber, there is a throne carved in malachite, which is naturally empty at the moment.
Below the high platform, there is a seat on each side, which is carved from obsidian.
Further down, there is a row of white stone seats on each side. The noble ministers and generals who participated in the discussion of this matter are now sitting on their own white stone seats according to their status and talking with the people around them.
On the side of the chamber, there is a small hall in which two groups of priests dressed in different priests' costumes stand.
That is the priest of the sun god Shamash, and the priest of the night god Nanna.
The gods of the sun and the night are enshrined by the royal family of Aaron Landis as the main gods, and the priests who serve as their servants naturally also have a very high status in Aaron Landis.
However, as servants of the gods, neither of the two temple forces would participate in this kind of thing.
Therefore, neither of the two old priests of the temple came here, but each symbolically sent a high priest to bring people to witness.
Footsteps sounded from outside, and the rustling conversation in the deliberative court broke off instantly, and everyone looked up.
The long golden hair of the young prince who walked towards the crowd was extremely dazzling in the sun, as if shining, and a crown of emerald green olive leaves carved from malachite was tied on it.
When the wind blew the golden forehead, the Shamash rune on the white forehead was dripping crimson.
When he stepped forward, the light blue cloak behind him flew up behind him.
The one-eyed knight in silver armor followed with a group of guards.
When Garlan arrived with his subordinates, no matter what thoughts they had, everyone in the room stood up and bowed to him.
Garlan's gaze swept across the crowd, nodded slightly, then walked between the crowd and sat down on the left seat under the throne high platform.
As he took his seat, everyone also sat back one after another.
In the beginning, no one spoke first.
After a moment of silence, someone looked around and got up.
"About Prince Huimos...what do you plan to do?"
When someone started, it was like opening a faucet, and one after another began to talk.
"The royal knight has retrieved the missing charm from Prince Huimos. It can be confirmed that that person did steal the charm."
"Yes, the Royal Knights have already said that they have not received an order from the king to transfer the talismans to Prince Himos."
"Prince Huimos lied to us."
"Yes, it is an indisputable fact that he stole the soldier talisman and mobilized the army without the permission of King Camos."
An army general said coldly.
"The talisman we got from Prince Huimos is proof. He fooled us, even if he is a prince, he shouldn't be like that."
A minister shook his head, his expression unconcerned.
"Even if he is a prince, he cannot forgive him for doing such a thing."
Hearing these people's words, Garlan couldn't help frowning. He glanced at Kaihus who was standing by and raised his head slightly.
Kaihus nodded.
Then he took a step forward.
"Please wait a moment, everyone."
He interrupted everyone.
"Although Prince Huimos did steal the talismans and mobilize the army without authorization, it is excusable. He did this to rescue Tozes, Prince Garland and me."
Then, Kaihuos turned to the side of the military generals.
"The soldiers are very fast. If the reinforcements didn't arrive in time, the city of Tozes would have fallen into the hands of the pirates." He said, "The military situation is urgent and there is no room for delay. As soldiers, you should know this best."
"For us, the result of the war is everything. Even if Prince Huimos made the act of stealing the talisman and deceiving you to mobilize the army, but he defeated the pirates and defended the city of Tozes. It should be possible to offset the merits."
The military generals glanced at each other, said nothing, and fell into silence.
All of Aaron Landis’ military generals were promoted based on military exploits. It can be said that they were all played on the battlefield, so they could actually understand the behavior of Prince Himos.
However, to understand is to understand, they must show their position and avoid being caught by others as evidence that they are not loyal to King Camos.
Therefore, after clearly expressing their attitude on the matter, they followed Kayjos's words and chose to shut up.
However, after the military was silent on this side, the noble minister apparently refused to give up easily.
"Pay off the credit? No, the guilt of provoking the kingship cannot be offset by any credit."
Someone immediately retorted.
"The killing of two royal knights in order to steal the talismans is a naked offense to King Camos."
"If a precedent is set for this, then someone will do the same thing with similar reasons in the future, can they be forgiven?"
"In this way, where does the king's majesty survive?"
When opinions were divergent, an old man with white hair slowly spoke.
"Everyone, the fact that Prince Huimos killed the royal knights, stole the talismans, and arbitrarily mobilized the army is a conclusive evidence."
The speaker's face was full of wrinkles, and his gray hair fell to his cheeks.
He looked old and decayed, but his slightly squinted eyes were full of light.
The old noble minister was sitting on the chair, holding a red-brown walking stick in both hands, and his big hands wrapped the head of the stick with a gold pattern that was hollowed out.
"However, he is a prince, and I have no right to deal with him." He said, "So, after King Camos comes back, we will inform King Camos of his guilt, and the king will do something against him. judgment."
"Please wait, Chief Secretary, what you say..."
The old man ignored Kaihuos, he turned his head and smiled at Garlan.
"Prince Garland, I know you are worried about Prince Huimos. After all, you grew up together, and your relationship is very good, and Prince Huimos did this to save you. You can't abandon him."
"However, you are the future king of Aaron Landis. When dealing with various things, it is best not to put in personal emotions."
He said to Garlan kindly, and added another sentence.
"Don't worry too much. King Camos will return soon. He should not impose too severe punishment on Prince Huimos."
Although the old minister’s tone was gentle and his mouth was gentle, what he said on the surface seemed to be for the sake of Huimos, but the subtext outside the words was insidious to Huimos and Garland. A big hole was dug.
He condemned Huimos' guilt in one sentence.
He directly aligns killing royal knights with stealing soldiers as the same thing, and concludes this culpability.
At the same time, he also saw that Kayhus was speaking for Hiimos under Galan's sign, so he was implying both inside and outside that Galan was helping Hiemos for personal gain.
He even said at the end that Gallan was the future king. It seemed that he was indoctrinating, but he was actually implying that Gallan would be Gallan himself if Heymos convicted the beneficiary.
Chief Secretary.
Garlan stared at the old minister, and his hand on his arm clenched for a few minutes.
...
If Huimos is denied the right to inheritance, he will undoubtedly be able to ascend the throne.
Complete the will of the gods.
Get free from the curse that has lasted forever.
…………
The Chief Secretary squinted his eyes slightly, and his wrinkled face looked at Garlan with a kind smile.
Then, he looked away with satisfaction and slowly, and glanced at everyone.
He smiled and said: "If you have no objections, then it is decided like this. When King Camos comes back, let the king make a verdict on Prince Huimos."
The chamber was quiet, and no one spoke.
The right secretary sitting above the Chief Secretary also squinted. The old man seemed to be dozing off, as if he hadn't heard the words from the Chief Secretary next to him.
And everyone fell silent.
There are no fools here.
They all knew that this must come down, and the crime of Himos in killing the royal knights was that they could not be changed.
In this way, after King Camos returns, Prince Huimos' succession to the throne will definitely be deprived.
In this silence, in the small hall next to the chamber, a priest of the Dark Night God dressed in a black and cyan priest's costume raised his mouth, as if mocking something.
Then, he raised his foot, as if he wanted to step forward.
However, that step has not been taken yet.
The sudden sound that rang in the silent courtroom made the foot that he almost stepped back suddenly.
The priest turned his head and showed a look of astonishment.
Prince Garland?
At this moment when everyone was silent, Garlan got up.
He stood up from the obsidian seat, and his golden eyes slowly swept across the crowd.
The light in his eyes seemed to gather the sunlight in the sky, extremely bright.
At this moment, in the silent chamber, only his voice echoed.
He said: "As Prince Aaron Landis, I reject the proposal of the Chief Secretary."
...
This is his best chance, and perhaps his only chance.
However, he does not need such an opportunity.
