Chapter 1369 Please Forgive Me

If you want to go against the traditions established over thousands of years, you can't do it overnight.

But it is also very terrible to refute the monarch's face.

However, this time the blame was caused by my negligence. I cannot bear it.

After much thought, I decided to go to the Orc King to see if he could be lenient and take back the title of nobility.

Putting the stack of commission documents on the table into my arms, I quickly rushed to the orc king's residence.

As a result, they met the orc king receiving the city lords and having a final farewell banquet.

In desperation, I had no choice but to return angrily. Just as I was about to go out, I heard someone calling me. When I turned around, I saw it was Prime Minister Lesta.

"It's Senior Lesta, do you have anything to do with me?" I asked respectfully.

"It's nothing, I just saw you coming and wanted to say hello to you," Lesta said with a smile.

"That's it." I nodded, and just as I was about to say goodbye, I saw Lesta standing in front of me, staring at me and saying, "Xiao Yi, do you have anything to do when you come here?"

"It's not a big deal," I said with a smile.

"Then have you done it?" He stared at me and asked, his bright eyes seeming to be able to see into my heart.

"The Beastman King is busy right now, so he couldn't do it."

"Can you tell me about this matter?" Lesta said: "Although I am not the King of Orcs, after all, I have been the prime minister for a long time. In some aspects, I am somewhat majestic. Maybe I can just help you. To solve the problem, wouldn't it save the step of going to His Majesty?"

"That's great," I said, "If you can really help me solve this problem, I will really save myself a lot of trouble."

Lesta nodded, looked around and said, "It's not convenient to talk here, go to the room inside."

After entering the room, I took out the order document, handed it to Lesta, and told him the rules of the dwarves.

Lesta held the order document and was silent for a long time. He raised his head and said with a sweaty expression: "This matter is all my fault. I encouraged Your Majesty to do this."

"Ah?"

"Don't blame me. The main reason why I did this was to strengthen the relationship between Fort Vicky and Dashay City. It's just that I didn't expect that the dwarves would have such a clan rule."

"Huh? When you made this suggestion, didn't you do any research on it?" I asked puzzled.

"I have done some investigations, but they are not so careful and not so comprehensive. Who would have thought that such a good thing would actually put those young dwarves into trouble."

"Don't say it was you. When I heard this clan rule, my whole body collapsed. What is a noble title? It is a symbol of glory and a proof of being valued by the king. This is obviously a good thing, but it is not the same as There is a conflict with the ethnic rules, and what makes me most helpless is that if I become a noble, I have to give up my identity as a citizen of Wychburg. This is too inhumane!"

I yelled a few words excitedly, took a breath, and continued: "But, after all, clan rules are clan rules, and they are things that have been passed down for thousands of years. They cannot be broken just by breaking them. So in desperation, I have to bear the blame alone." , I hope the orc king can take back his life and stop embarrassing my dwarf friends."

Lesta sighed deeply: "My child, you are right. I am also responsible for this matter. The banquet will be over in a while, and I will accompany you to plead guilty to His Majesty."

"You'd better forget it." I looked up and down Panlesta's old figure and said, "You are not young anymore, so don't suffer this kind of torment. Anyway, I have a special status. The Beastman King will not treat him like this." What about me? The most I can do is scold me, give me a serious beating, and then remove me from my position as prime minister. I am young and strong, and I practice monster hunting every day, let alone a beating. , I can handle it even if I fight for a day, I’m not bragging, I’m a man who has fought with Achilles!”

Oops, holy shit, I accidentally brought Achilles out again.

I am ashamed to say that ever since I learned about the existence of such an organization as National Power, I am no longer embarrassed to mention Achilles. It is not that he is not strong enough. With Achilles’ strength, even if he is thrown into National Power, he will definitely be I am among the best, but it is precisely because I am the best, not the strongest, that I feel ashamed.

This is similar to an exam. If you compare with the person ranked first, others will think you are very ambitious. But if you compare with the person ranked tenth, most people will not feel this way. Some people may even think, It’s all about competition anyway, why not compete with the first one? Are you afraid of not being able to compare?

That's pretty much it.

I don't like being criticized, so I just keep my mouth shut about Achilles.

But just now, I got excited and spoke quickly.

Thinking of this, the old face couldn't help but blush.

"Achilles." Lesta murmured: "He is indeed a powerful character. The elite group of the Iron Wolf Guild stationed in the Airui City branch was annihilated by him alone. How can you defeat him?" It’s really quite capable to survive under your hands.”

Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Prime Minister Lesta did not use this matter to criticize me.

But then I thought about it, Lestat is a high-ranking prime minister, and has been in politics for many years. He is naturally cautious in what he says. If he can't hurt others, he should try not to hurt others. He can't do things like criticizing others. .

I suddenly felt like I was a bit of a villain.

Lesta frowned and spoke again, "No, although I am older, I still have a sense of responsibility. Since this matter happened because of me, I can't put all the responsibility on you! "

"You don't have any responsibility," I retorted, "Speaking of which, from the beginning to the end, everything you did was for the development of Dashai City, and the cause of this incident was actually to make Dashai City more beautiful. Powerful, isn't it? Since you are the prime minister of Dashai City, isn't it your duty to hope that Dashai City becomes strong?"

"But you are also the prime minister of Dashai City," Lesta said, "Why do you want to put this responsibility on yourself?"

"No, this is indeed my responsibility." I shook my head and said, "Originally, the dwarves planned to return this document on the spot on the awards stage. It was me who was afraid that it would discredit the Orc King and lead to There was a rift between the two countries, so I issued an order without authorization, not allowing these people to cause trouble. If anything happens, we will talk about it after we go back, that's it."

After hearing this, Lesta looked complicated and said, "So that's what happened."

His lips trembled, he thought for a few seconds, and then continued: "Since you told me about this matter, I can't stay out of it. Let's find your Majesty later and tell him about it. If he doesn't agree, I will speak for you."

"What do you want to tell me?"

A loud and familiar voice reached my ears as the door opened.

That was the voice of the Beastman King.
