Demon Royal Family
Chapter 179 The root of the problem (fourth update)
Early the next morning, all the nobles in Laces City knew that the eldest daughter of the Linches family had been kidnapped. Although Talper explained in every possible way, he could not stop the various imaginations of the nobles.
The Marquis of Beverly expressed strong dissatisfaction with Talper, and Caesar was pushed to the forefront of public opinion. His nominal fiancée was kidnapped, which was undoubtedly a humiliation.
Just as the public opinion became more and more intense, Nafi appeared in the public eye without any concealment, and lived in the Hurricane Academy.
The aristocracy was stunned.
News soon spread that the cause of this incident was "Hurricane" Ivo. As Nafi's friend, Ivo was just dissatisfied with her grounded treatment, so he forcibly took Nafi away and stopped living in Linche. It's just Si Manor.
This news eased the public opinion of the nobles. Escape from the confinement was obviously a reasonable request, and Nafi had no intention of hiding. The elopement became nonsense. It became a family matter of the Linches family, and Gold had no choice. Quan intervenes, even if there is a marriage contract, they have no reason to interfere with Na Fei's normal needs.
After Talper got the news, he breathed a sigh of relief and understood that Ivo had not done everything to prevent Nafi from leaving his sight, but he did not allow Talper to interfere with her freedom anymore. This was Ivo's fault. Waugh’s subtext.
From the beginning to the end, Ivo was only dissatisfied with Nafi's treatment of being grounded and did not interfere with the engagement. Thinking of this, Talper compromised. In fact, he also felt slightly guilty about Nafi.
However, despite this, there are still some unfriendly speculations circulating, targeting Caesar and Gold, believing that their marriage contract is forced upon others. Although this kind of thing is very common in the aristocratic class, thoughtful people will still use this to attack Gold. reputation.
For a time, public opinion was rampant, but it was limited to the nobility and was clearly distinguished from the common people.
Nafi gained the long-lost freedom, but she was not as happy as expected, because after sending her to Hurricane Academy, Ivo left. Nafi fiercely opposed the family's arrangement for the first time. She was terrified and hoped that Ivo could accompany her. Only by his side can she feel safe.
At this time, Ivo was in the Shadow Tavern near the royal capital.
In the early morning, Li Ang came to the door, told him the evaluation results of the Brotherhood, formally accepted him, and handed him the badge of the Brotherhood to Ivo, as well as the location and entry method of some shadow taverns.
Ivo heads to the Shadow Tavern alone, wearing a mask to avoid being recognized.
In the Shadow Tavern near Laces City, there were two or three Brotherhood assassins resting and talking inside. Ivo chose a bounty task from the tavern owner. Every official member of the Brotherhood must complete at least one task a year. order, otherwise you will lose your status.
The membership hierarchy of the fraternity is very simple: peripheral members (who passed the assessment but failed the evaluation), formal members, elite members, cadres, and "blood ring" members. "Blood Circle" is the core organization within the Brotherhood, the real top management, decision-makers, strongest men, and master assassins. "Blood Circle" is their honorific title and a crown representing glory.
The bounty target Ivo chose was a small nobleman in Lassese who had done many evil things. Ivo was not prepared to do it himself. He gave the job to Paro and asked him to select people from the religious order to deal with the young nobleman. It has to be said that the power of the Eye of Darkness is very easy to use. If the Archbishop hadn't been evil-minded and the old German was not hostile to Darkness, Ivo might have been able to be his bishop with peace of mind.
After handing the reward to Paro, Paro took out a faith contract and said, "Your Majesty Bishop, this is a new faith contract made by the archbishop. Everyone must sign it again. According to the rules, you must sign it first before it is your turn. Other believers in Lasces signed it, which is an example.”
Ivo took a deep look at Paro, pushed away the faith contract, and said: "Paro, are you loyal to the Eye of Darkness, or are you loyal to me?"
Paro wondered: "What's the difference?"
Ivo said calmly: "I need a confidant, a real confidant, do you understand what I mean?"
Paro's face changed slightly.
"You know my identity, I am the Son of the Devil," Ivo put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, without blinking, and said, "But do you know what the Son of the Devil represents?"
Paro shook his head. Although the Dark Eyes had been looking for the son of the devil, he didn't know the truth.
"Representative of the Son of the Devil..." Ivo suddenly turned his head, "Messenger of Purgatory!"
Paro was shocked and looked surprised.
Ivo said slowly: "The Archbishop has turned his back on Lord Darkness, and he has used the Eye of Darkness as a private tool!"
"How is that possible?" Paro exclaimed.
"The Archbishop has absolute control over the Eye of Darkness. The failure of the faith contract this time is too strange," Ivo said lightly: "Other than the Archbishop, who can tamper with the content of the contract? Maybe gods can, but they never He personally intervenes in all changes in the main world, so the only one who can tamper with the contract is Lord Darkness!"
Paro looked confused and was stopped by Ivo's remarks.
"The Archbishop has absolute control over the Eye of Darkness. He cannot tamper with the contract and lose this control."
"Lord Darkness cannot manifest his spirit. He used this method to express his dissatisfaction with the Eye of Darkness in a subtle way. This also reminded me that the Archbishop's selfish desires have exceeded his piety towards Darkness!"
"In the Order, no one can oppose the Archbishop. On the surface, the seven bishops have the same power, but in fact only the Archbishop is dictatorial. Haven't you noticed that the activities of the Dark Eye have become more and more strange in recent years, Lord Darkness? What is needed is faith and soul, but the Archbishop has been deliberately controlling the size of the Order, and the profits earned by the Order eventually flowed into his pocket. This operation suffered too many manpower losses, so the Archbishop allowed us to preach." Ivo Shocking words.
Seeing Paro frowning and thinking, Ivo secretly smiled. There were many loopholes in this statement, but he was not worried about Paro's suspicion. As long as he pointed out a possibility and made up some reasons and reasons, even if he didn't believe it, he would be more or less convinced. Guide your thoughts with a sense of luck that “maybe this is true.”
"Sir, what do you want to do?" Paro asked hesitantly.
"I want to change the Eye of Darkness, put the Order on the right path, and dismantle the Archbishop's control over the Order." Ivo shook his fist fiercely, pretending to be filled with righteous indignation, "I want to make the believers firm their belief in darkness, and To give their beliefs a home, I want to start a revolution from within. All corruption breeds from within. I want to remove the cancer in the Eye of Darkness and find the original goal for the Eye of Darkness!"
"This road is destined to be hostile to the Archbishop. Danger is like thorns, covering the road ahead."
Ivo suddenly looked directly at Paro, "You have followed me for three years. Are you still willing to continue to follow me and embark on this path of reform?"
Paro was shocked by Ivo's "righteous words" and stayed on the spot. In his eyes at this moment, Ivo's image was radiant.
Paro knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Paro Hidden Shadow, I am willing to comply with your wishes. The dagger will always be pointed wherever you look. I swear in the name of the dark elf race and darkness to dedicate it to your supreme love." Be loyal and never break.”
Ivo was overjoyed, put his hands on Paro's shoulders, and looked directly into his eyes, "I believe in your loyalty. You have always been my right-hand man. I am very grateful to you."
Before Paro could be flattered, Ivo turned his head again and said, "However, we cannot take any risks in this secret reform." He took out a dark blue parchment roll from his arms and handed it to Paro.
"This is a new faith contract," Ivo paused and said, "A contract directly belonging to the demon lord! Yes, you guessed it right, this is a contract given to me personally by Lord Darkness. This is the source of all my guesses! "
"I am the only person besides the Archbishop who can come into contact with the darkness!"
The dark blue faith contract exudes a strong demonic aura, and Paro can feel that this is the high pressure of the demon lord. At this moment, he no longer had any doubts about what Ivo said, and he signed his name.
Ivo smiled and said: "Paluo, you want all the believers in Lasces to sign a new contract. This is a great opportunity to weaken the power of the archbishop. Remember, only people worth winning over can be told the truth. You know Laces better." Member of Seth, I leave the choice to you. Remember, confidentiality is the most important thing, and we cannot be exposed until we can stand up to the Archbishop."
"Your wishes will be carried out." Paro saluted respectfully, took the dark blue parchment and left in a hurry.
Ivo had a weird smile on his face.
Internal turmoil has always been the cause of the collapse of an organization. His counterattack against the Eye of Darkness is not as violent as thunder, because thunder will not last long. It is more like rotten rust, gradually spreading without anyone noticing.
The root of the problem has been planted, now it's just a matter of watering, fertilizing and... waiting.
As for the dark blue contract, it has no effect. It is just a devilish parchment with the aura of Demacia attached to it. The old man's current strength is not enough to make a contract, but it is only used to improve his persuasion.
After fooling Paro, Ivo returned to Hurricane Academy. When he walked into the gate, a man in palace clothes stopped him and said: "I am the king's affairs officer, and your majesty wants to see you."
Ivo's eyes flashed. Two years later, the king wanted to summon him again?
