Law of the Dragon

Eros lay at the window and watched the birds flying in the sky boredly. He stretched out his hand, and a bird landed on his palm. He lowered his head and lightly pecked at the breadcrumbs in his palm. Startled and flew away.

"Who are you pretending to be pitiful for?" Xi Lu said coolly.

"Pretend to show Norman, I know he's watching me," Eros patted the bread crumbs in his hands.

Xi Lu snorted: "I heard you talk about that Marvin before... I think he made up his mind to frame you, and this time he didn't even want his own life."

Eros didn't speak, but West Road continued: "I don't think you should stay here anymore, let's go back first."

"Back to the imperial capital?" Eros raised his eyebrows, "I can't go back now."

"What's the matter?" Xilu asked in a daze, "They don't regard you as a king now, maybe they can create a magic circle to test the darkness, then they will be unable to argue."

Eros shook his head: "You are wrong."

"what happened?"

"I can't go back now," Eros left the window and sat on a high-backed chair beside him. "An accident happened in the imperial capital, and too many people were involved. I can only stay here now."

"Has something happened in the imperial capital?" West Road looked at Eros with some hesitation, "A coup or something...?"

"I don't know," Eros sighed, "It must be a small problem."

"How did you get it?"

Eros played with the roses in the vase on the small round table, and said softly, "I've been alone for nearly a month. Logically, even if Yarrow doesn't come by himself, he will definitely send Hasen or other guards to protect me."

"You can't say that," Xilu said indifferently, "that half-elf can tell you right away that you are fully capable of protecting yourself."

"It's one thing to be able to protect yourself," Eros shook his head, "but it's another thing to show others. Now that Arrow has returned to the imperial capital, I should go back as well, but I've been there for nearly a month Didn't go back, you said, even if Yarrow agrees, will Embo and the others agree that the king has been missing for so long?"

"...That's right," Xilu said after pondering for a while, "Even if they were with Norman, they would not let the king stay alone, but there has been no movement."

"When I went to the Holy See, they identified me as a 'false king' because of Marvin's affairs. The focus was not on Marvin's death, but on the 'false king'. I think they must have planned to prove that I was a false king in the Holy See early in the morning. Facts about counterfeit products. Otherwise, according to the prudence of the church in recent years, it is impossible to make such a big move. What evidence is there for saying that I am a 'false king'? There are laws in this country, and 'oracles' are not evidence! They Are you not afraid that I will turn them into an army?"

"That is to say, what happened in the imperial capital may have something to do with the unusual behavior of the church?" Xi Lu immediately said, "It doesn't matter who is making trouble in the imperial capital, but he must be with the church of."

"Yes!" Eros nodded, and continued, "Saklo has always been very concerned about the black magic of Crander's family before."

"Who is Klander? He's with us?" Xilu said excitedly, he was very excited when he heard words like "black magic".

Eros cast a contemptuous glance at Xilu, thought for a while and said, "Klander is the chief cabinet of the fifth district, and his family is very rich. Compared with other districts, he should be the richest chief cabinet."

"Isn't the church the richest?" Xilu asked.

"The richest one should be the church," Eros shrugged his shoulders and said, "but the chief cabinet of the first district must have benefited a lot from the church. In my current situation, it is definitely useless to reason with the church, Norman He will definitely help me contact the chief cabinet of the first district, but these days have passed, and there is still no movement. I think the chief cabinet of the first district was either bought by them or threatened by them. Anyway, he plans to deal with this matter. Leave them alone, and even help them."

"Then who is trying to plot against you behind your back?" Xilu said, "Klander is the chief cabinet of the fifth district. Does he have the financial strength?"

"The annual tax revenue of the fifth district is indeed a big income, and he must have earned a lot of money. If he has such economic strength... I think it is about the same." Eros thought for a while and said, "But, since He wants to deal with me, and all he wants is the throne, but it is impossible for him to sit on the throne himself. The royal family has ruled for so long, and with his qualifications, it is impossible to become the king. Let me think...he sat on the throne The general cabinet is only five or six years old, and his foundation is so shallow, he still wants to plot against me?"

"Then there is someone behind him!" Xi Lu said firmly, "This person can sit on the throne! Think about it, is there any candidate?"

"...Saklo?"

"Please! Can you not mention him?" Xilu retorted angrily, "He is in the annihilation space! Annihilation space, you know it? How could he come out to plan a coup? Even if he did, you think he cares about your poor throne?"

Xilu said again: "Don't look at me with such sad eyes, you look at me, that is also true! I said that you have made such a big circle, don't you want to prove that Sa Keluo is not dead? I told You, he is dead!"

Eros opened his mouth, bent his knees on the high-back chair, stared at the rose and stubbornly remained silent.

Xilu was silent for a while and said, "Well, that possibility is not ruled out... Then besides this possibility, is there anything else?"

Eros pretended to think for a while in embarrassment and said, "Probably gone."

"Hey!"

"...Of course, I think Norman is also a victim," Eros brought the topic to another person, because he really didn't want to imagine other possibilities, "If I leave, he may implicated."

"I always thought that the church was the Norman's world," Xilu shrugged and said, "They have been shouldering the mission of saving mankind since ancient times, and they were born for this. direction."

Eros blinked his eyes: "This is the first time I've heard of this, mission or something, I always thought they were rich because they were called 'Norman'."

"Why do you think they are rich?" Xilu rolled his eyes at him. Although he is just a "flat" spider in the ring at the moment, it does not prevent him from doing this action. "In the legend, the light God took out his own blood, fused him into a certain human bloodline, and gave them a mission, and they could not resist this mission."

"It's so pitiful..." Eros said sincerely, "The God of Light is indeed a cruel god, he always only uses 'commands, give missions', and the God of Darkness at least uses 'contract', which is somewhat beneficial. "

"This is the price," Xi Lu said coolly, "If they want to stand above others, they have to pay the corresponding price."

"Speaking of which, you are still a dark merchant." Eros took the ring off his finger, tossed it lightly, and then caught it with his hand, "Why are you not skilled in these things at all? The God of Darkness misjudged his eyes, so he chose you to be a dark businessman, I said, why did the Demon God War fail at that time..."

"Hey, I was already sealed during the Demon God War, okay?" Xilu quickly protested, "Can you respect others, I am also the servant of the God of Darkness...you tyrant!"

Eros made a grimace at Xilu, stretched his waist, and fell back on the bed: "I'll sleep for a while, call me when someone comes."

"Hey... I was thrown into the cup by you..." Unfortunately, the effect of sound transmission through the tea is not good.

"If you insist on disturbing this matter, it will do you no good at all," Perot stood in the semi-open colonnade and looked at Norman, and then turned to look at the towering tower standing above the Holy See, where Norman was imprisoned. The false king brought by Man.

Norman didn't speak. He saw the boy by the window flash and walked into the room, but he was nowhere to be seen.

"Don't even look, he's trapped in this tower, so high above the ground, he can't leave unless he has wings." Perrault continued, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, the Pope obviously has something. Plan, you'd better stay out of it, this matter... just leave it to me."

"What... is he going to do?" Norman turned his head and asked.

Perot shook his head: "I don't know... But, you must also feel that something is wrong, and... as long as there is a chance, he will not give up deporting you."

"I know," Norman nodded gently, "what will you do?"

"If he does not admit that he is a false king, then he must undergo a series of tests..."

"In fact, this has nothing to do with whether he is the real king?" Norman suddenly interrupted Perot, "Are you trying to declare war on the imperial power?"

"I'm just following the orders of the Pope." Perot was silent for a while, his blue eyes showed no emotion, "Norman, everyone here is like this."

"Maybe everyone is so numb that they don't need the guidance of the God of Light," Norman said coldly, "I won't accuse him."

"But the oracle...everyone knows it," Perot finally got a little moved, and frowned at Norman. "He is a false king... he may not even be a human being. Norman, you have to tell the truth."

"What is the truth?" Anger finally emerged on Norman's calm face. "Whether it is true or false, they are all pawns in the hands of those people. I know exactly what they want! Not only do I not I will accuse him, and I will protect him!"

"How do you protect him?" Pero was startled, and then said coldly, "Do you want to be accused by the church court of being with dark creatures?"

"Dark creatures?"

"The way Marvin died, let alone an ordinary human being," Perot said rigidly, "He was eaten from the inside. Only dark creatures can do this kind of cruel killing." will do!"

"He's not a murderer!" Norman insisted.

"It's not up to you, Norman," Perot looked at him, "This kind of content will not appear in the oracle of the God of Light. If you insist on protecting him in this way, you will be the first person to go to court. Norman. You have to prepare your mind."

"I won't bear it any longer." Norman turned around coldly, "I want to see if the God of Light is worth supporting in their hearts."

Perot stretched out his hand to grab him, but he froze in mid-air and watched Norman walk away regretfully.
