The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1806 The Next Game!

Looking at the commotion in front of them, the upper evil spirit sat silently on the throne and counted the time.

It doesn't mind the noise.

Even, to some extent, it likes such noise.

Attending a party as a king is also the first time for a superior evil spirit. The feeling of being noticed, worshiped and respected is very fresh and tastes good. You must know that it is usually either beheaded or divided. Corpses, sometimes with incomplete bones, how can they be treated like this?

It would be better if there were no next tasks.

Thinking about everything that may come next.

The upper evil spirit couldn't help but sigh.

Why doesn't it separate?

How great would it be if it could be divided into two and let the clone do its busy work while it stays here to rest and enjoy the scenery that a king should have?

"His Majesty."

The voice of the minister beside him sounded.

The superior evil spirit turned his head and looked at Monte with a flattering smile on his face.

"Your Highness is just not used to it. As time goes by, everything will get better."

Monte opened his eyes and was relieved as if he was telling lies - time can't do anything about things like heart knots. Most of the time, the so-called time untied is just that after time has tempered one person's life to the end, another person It's just a sigh of relief. Most of the time, it's just to give yourself a label of 'don't care'.

Because arguing with the dead will make you look very incompetent.

And alive?

It is as hard and persistent as steel cast into iron.

Therefore, this caused dissatisfaction with Marquis Wharton.

After the old Marquis glared at this well-known flatterer, he spoke seriously.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness has a knot in his heart."

"Only by untying this knot will things get better."

The old Marquis said sincerely.

As the most loyal subordinate of King Attantine VI, the old Marquis was extremely surprised by the scene that had been performed in the palace.

He knew that King Attantine VI was hiding something from him, and he didn't care much about His Highness Sphenson, but he never thought that His Highness Sphenson was just a cover.

However, when he learned about this, the old Marquis was not surprised at all.

On the contrary, there is a kind of relief.

This is the method of the king to whom he is loyal.

How could his king leave such a huge weakness on the table open to attack?

Naturally, it's because this weakness is fake, and the real weakness has already been hidden and placed in a safe place.

What could be more appropriate than the secretive Snake sect?

Thinking about the strange look on His Majesty's face that was mixed with worry and anger when he heard about the snake sect demon hunters before, everything became even more logical.

The worry is naturally that His Highness Colin will be involved in such a thing.

anger?

Except for the 'War Temple' that caused all this, there is naturally no other target of anger.

Moreover, this time of recognition...

I'm afraid that His Highness Colin also knew the truth of the matter from his teacher, and then he fought against the fake Sfenson.

Especially when an impostor screams "identity" in the face of the real heir, anyone will be angry, let alone a young man who has left his own family and his father for more than twenty years.

Even witchers are no exception.

Even better.

Because this proves that His Highness Colin has not forgotten his identity.

Therefore, anger is also a good thing at this time.

On the contrary, indifference is the most terrifying thing.

But the knot in His Highness’ heart must also be untied.

Otherwise, sooner or later something will happen that no one is happy to see.

Those guys are keeping their eyes on the king's throne!

For those things that are like weeds that cannot be eradicated and grow again when the wind blows, the old Marquis usually takes precautions before they happen.

"Your Majesty will naturally have the most correct approach."

"No need for you to remind me!"

Monte choked the old Marquis in a nonchalant manner.

This is customary.

The old Marquis ignored Monte at all, but looked at Atantine VI.

The old Marquis knew very well who was in power and decision-making here.

"Wharton, do you have any suggestions?"

"I have many ways to deal with other things, but facing... Colin, the guilt and apology in my heart made it impossible for me to calmly judge what is good and what is bad. I need Wo Use your wisdom to help me."

King Attantine VI asked in a low voice.

There was a very rare expression of hesitation and worry on the king's face.

At least, the old Marquis has never seen it.

But what's so strange about this?

The old Marquis is also a father, and he understands His Majesty's mood very well.

Even though he is not a good father.

"I think young people's affairs are best solved by young people."

"My son Kuhl has a good relationship with His Highness Colin. I think it would be a good choice for Kuhl to step in and insinuate things."

"Your son?!"

"My Lord Marquis, don't think that I don't know what you are planning!"

"Your Majesty, your Majesty will worry about gains and losses, but he will not be without wisdom!"

Hearing the words of the old Marquis, before Atantine VI could speak, Monte screamed at the side.

Even if it's a scream, it's also very well controlled.

Only the three people around could hear it.

However, the people who have been quietly watching here are enough to see some abnormalities.

Of course Monte knew all this.

In fact, he did it on purpose.

That's his role.

The function of a 'bait' is to distinguish some things that are difficult to distinguish for the person holding the bait.

The person holding him was King Attantine VI in front of him.

What King Attantine VI wanted, he couldn't wait until His Majesty the King said it before he did it. He needed to plan in advance. Only then could he be a qualified minister.

The old Marquis glanced at Monte but did not speak.

The old Marquis also had some guesses about the role of this close minister.

Otherwise, how could your wise and mighty Majesty tolerate a truly flattering villain by your side?

Of course, he had selfish motives for pushing Kuhl out.

Some things don't need to be said.

The superior evil spirit pondered for a moment.

In fact, he is contacting his boss.

‘Cool? ’

'OK. ’

Qin Ran thought of the aristocratic young man with good moral character and similar hobbies to his own, and couldn't help but agree.

"Let's go to the small conference hall."

"Mont, I leave this to you."

"Wharton, let Kuhl come to see Colin."

The superior evil spirit said this and stood up. His tall body attracted attention. Under everyone's gaze, he walked towards Qin Ran.

"Colin, can you come with me?"

All the words disappeared at this moment, even the court musicians slowed down the instruments in their hands as much as possible, and the people around him could hear the words of Attantine VI's question.

That slightly pleading questioning tone was the first time everyone present had seen it.

Suddenly, the last bit of doubt in my heart disappeared.

Who else but a guilty father could make Attantine VI do this?

What's more important is that facing King Attantine VI like this, the snake sect demon hunters still look indifferent.

In the same way, everyone increasingly believed that Spensen was a shield. Didn't you see the way Spensen remained silent when he faced Etantine VI?

Where can I be as calm, elegant and decent as His Highness Colin?

The power of blood is different after all.

Fake, no matter how true it is, it is still fake.

Indeed, even if it is buried for a moment, it will bloom with a dazzling brilliance.

"Um."

Qin Ran nodded slightly.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, the superior evil spirit and Qin Ran disappeared side by side.

This honor of walking side by side with the king once again made people admire Atantine VI's tolerance for his heirs.

Monte stood up holding the wine glass.

Ding!

The silver spoon hits the wall of the cup, and the clear sound attracts people's attention.

"Everyone, today is a special day."

"It's also a day worth celebrating."

"Of course, I hope everyone remembers who they should be."

Konomi said words that were very suitable for his status.

Faced with such words, many nobles showed contempt.

They knew very well that if they could kneel down and lick, this minister would definitely kneel down and lick His Highness's shoes without hesitation. Unlike them, they would at least think about it, hesitate, and maintain their final dignity before licking it.

Similarly, these nobles also noticed the temporary departure of Marquis Wharton.

But before these people could figure out what the old Marquis was going to do, they saw Monte walking up to the new Lord Sika and groveling.

Some people were stunned.

Some people are puzzled.

But soon, most people became enlightened.

His Highness Colin seems to be from the Sika Territory.

damn it!

I was overtaken by this shameless guy again!

The belated nobles gritted their teeth.

Then, they rushed towards the baroness in no particular order.

Looking at the nobles coming, Monte sneered in his heart.

A bunch of idiots.

Monte commented like this.

He did this just to provide a cover for the old Marquis and prevent others from discovering the arrival of Kull Wharton.

This is what his Majesty likes to see, and he must do it.

Just thinking about the old Marquis...

Old fox!

Monte suddenly felt heartbroken when he thought of this.

Why didn't he have such a forward-looking vision? If he had known this, he should have gotten married earlier.

Time passes minute by minute.

In the small meeting hall.

The superior evil spirit was sitting on pins and needles in the high-backed chair of King Attantine VI.

Its eyes moved as Kieran moved around the meeting hall.

If it weren't for the fact that its boss strictly ordered it to conform to everything of Etantine VI, it would have stood up and asked its boss to sit down.

There was no direct dialogue.

Borrowing the power of the contract, the communication between the two is simpler than imagined.

"The bells in Quiet Night Town are about to ring."

Kieran's voice sounded deep in his heart.

A very simple statement.

But the upper evil spirit knew what his boss wanted to express.

"I understand."

"Maximize the benefits!"

The superior evil spirit guarantees it.

"Um."

Qin Ran nodded again, and then looked at the bookshelf.

A person's bookshelf can reveal so much information.

In addition to the simplest preferences, many people will hide something in it.

Some of it is private money.

Some are letters from lovers.

Eitandine VI did not have such a habit.

However, some of the information he flipped through made Kieran even more concerned.

After flipping through it a little, he found that they all recorded events from the time of Attantine I.

As small as food, clothing, housing and transportation.

The war will destroy the country.

Not a tall tale, but a biography.

"Looking for your ancestors?"

Recalling the life of Atantin VI, Qin Ran secretly guessed as he flipped through the information.

But soon, he was attracted by the horizontal lines drawn with a pen in the information in his hand——

Before meeting the 'prophet', Attantine I never thought that he, a run-down nobleman, would become the founding emperor of his country.

'prophet'?

The former is annotated utterances.

The latter was written by Attantine VI himself.

That question mark represents the question of King Attantine VI.

Obviously, the king also discovered something.

However, it's a little late.

Qin Ran shook his head.

This is not to deny this person's ability, but the other party has already stepped into the 'broker's' trap and bit the broker's bait. Then, no matter how capable the person is, his end is doomed.

The 'broker' will not give people a chance to make a comeback.

Just like the 'broker' is good at hiding.

Is creating an 'evil' army what the 'broker' wants?

It’s not that this ‘evil’ army is not strong enough.

On the contrary, after swallowing these evil things, not only did his five source powers grow several times, but only a trace of the chaotic darkness in his body was expelled.

Even the [Lord of the Mist] has benefited greatly.

From IV directly to V!

V is qualitative change.

Yes to Qin Ran, and also to [Lord of the Mist]!

All-around enhancements.

Moreover, following Kieran's thoughts, [Lord of Mist] no longer needed to be held, it was suspended in front of Kieran, and then revolved around him according to Kieran's thoughts.

The bright light also became restrained as Kieran thought, just like an ordinary palm-sized crystal.

Finally, when the [Lord of Mist] fell into the pocket of his underwear, a desire began to arise in Kieran's heart.

Not unfamiliar.

When facing the [Judgment Scale], he had a similar desire.

But very weak.

Far from being as pure as [Lord of the Mist].

And based on what he had always guessed...

A smile appeared on Qin Ran's face.

He seems to have found a shortcut to VI.

Of course, this shortcut is not that easy.

Enough preparation is required.

At least……

not now.

He still needs to confirm a few things.

Boom, boom!

There was a knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, Marquis Wharton and Knight Cool Wharton have arrived."

The voice of the royal guard came.

"Come in."

The upper evil spirit sat up straight.

The door opened, and the old Marquis and the noble young man walked in.

"His Majesty."

The two of them saluted at the same time, with impeccable etiquette standards.

However, Kull Wharton couldn't help but peek at Kieran.

There was surprise, surprise and disbelief in his eyes.

Tonight, Kieran had seen too many looks like this.

But Kull Wharton is different.

The other party can be regarded as Kieran's friend.

When facing friends, Kieran is quite patient and friendly.

Therefore, after seeing the noble young man's quietly appraising eyes, Qin Ran smiled at him.

Nothing to hide.

Kieran didn't think it was necessary.

But the noble young man blushed inexplicably and lowered his head.

The old Marquis on the side showed a smile and winked at Attantine VI.

The superior evil spirit, which had not come into contact with all the memories of Atantin VI, could only squint its eyes calmly at this time, looking noncommittal.

After seeing the appearance of Attantine VI, the old Marquis was convinced.

"Ahem, Kull, can you act as a guide and take His Highness Colin around?"

"remember!"

"It's time to confess your secret."

The old Marquis said so.

Kull Wharton subconsciously wanted to refute.

But after seeing Atantine VI, the young nobleman could only sigh slightly and agreed.

"Okay, Father."

he said.

Then, walk straight outside.

Kieran followed.

He did not say hello to the superior evil spirit, but he nodded slightly to Marquis Wharton.

"It will take time for His Highness to settle down."

The old Marquis looked at his Majesty and explained again.

"Ok, I know."

"Wharton, I'm a little tired today."

"I want to rest - I'll leave the matters in the hall to Monte, but there are some things that you still need to pay attention to."

King Attantine VI nodded.

Looking at His Majesty's bloodshot eyes, the old Marquis immediately bowed and saluted.

Although His Majesty is in good health, necessary rest is still necessary.

Of course, because of the appearance of His Highness Colin, His Majesty naturally needs to make adjustments.

And this must not be seen.

Which king is willing to let others see his weak side?

Therefore, the old Marquis immediately retreated.

The door to the small meeting hall was closed again.

There was only one upper evil spirit left.

It stood up, with the demeanor of a king, and walked to the bedroom hidden on the side. It seemed to be taking a rest, but there were vague words in its mouth.

The voice is muffled and soft.

You can only hear it if you stand very close. Those words are——

"Run to the show! Hurry to the show!"
