A Tale of Strategies For the Throne

The green-haired priest stood quietly aside. Although he had short hair, the hair on his front forehead was longer, covering some of his eye sockets.

His eyes are quite slender, and his pupils are also small. When he lowers his eyes, he can easily hide the strangeness in his eyes.

At this moment, he was standing aside, his face was not very good-looking, and there was obvious displeasure in his eyes.

As priests of Nannar, the god of the night, they don't need to be physically strong like those priests of Shamash, who they call 'muscular dead brains'.

If the minimum requirement for becoming a priest of Shamash is to have a force value as good as one can fight five, and an upright and rigorous character, then to become a priest of Nanna, the god of the night, priority is given to those who are intelligent—although others Call this 'intelligence' of their mouth 'cunning'.

The priests of Shangnanna are bound to suffer.

This is the consensus of all.

However, everything in this world is against one thing, and the nemesis of the priests of Nanna is the priest of Shamash.

Because the priests of Nanna are good at provoking people's hearts, and it is disadvantageous to catch people's weaknesses, but the priests of Shamash have always been upright and open, and they are calm in dealing with things, without shadows in their hearts. Naturally, they will not be caught by the priests of Nanna weakness.

And the most important point is that although the priests of the upright Shamash can't talk about the priests of Nanna, they will not waste their energy arguing with the priests of Nanna, but will choose directly and simply to beat people .

……

Compared with the priests of Shamash, the combat power of Nanna's priests is simply vulnerable.

The result of this is that the priests of Nanna, who always let others suffer, become the one who suffers as long as they face the priests of Shamash.

Shemuer, you are a guy who can only reason with your fists!

Suo Jia stood there, thinking with a face full of displeasure.

Yes, this time, he ate at Shemur again and again.

He was upset for a while, then turned his gaze to the front.

Prince Heymos sat on a seat by the window, one hand resting on the table beside him.

A middle-aged doctor was in front of him, gently removing the bandages wrapped around his fingers.

Although the doctor's movements were as light as possible, the bandage was still wrapped around the flesh and stuck together. Once it was removed, the sticky flesh would naturally be pulled.

Just watching from the side, Suo Jia felt inexplicably that his hands ached.

As a person who can move his mouth but not his hands, can use his brain but not his feet, he can't imagine stretching out his hands to support the stone pillar that has been burned like a hot iron.

Not to mention rushing forward to support it, as a human instinct, avoiding it without reflex is considered to be a strong self-control.

Suo Jia thought to himself in this way, while Heymos sat by the window with a calm expression, the sunlight coming in from the window fell on his side cheeks, revealing a brown luster.

Obviously others are watching with lingering fear, but his expression does not reveal at all that the person whose flesh and blood is being torn by bandages is himself.

His demeanor seemed to be sitting there leisurely.

He didn't even look at his hand injury, just turned his head sideways, looking in a certain direction outside the window.

The team of royal knights in charge of guarding him was in the courtyard outside, all of them looked serious.

Their figures standing there are like trees rooted in the ground.

Soga glanced at the team of royal knights, then looked back with disinterest.

He knew where Prince Heymos was looking, so he also glanced in that direction.

The dense woods and tall palaces blocked his view, so naturally he couldn't see anything.

But he knew that the Plaza of the Gods in front of the main hall should be very lively at the moment.

After reapplying Heymos's hands and putting on brand new white bandages, the middle-aged doctor withdrew.

Soga stood aside and watched Prince Heymos look down at his re-bandaged hands, and finally couldn't help asking.

"Your Highness, are we really going to let Prince Garlan do what's over there?"

He said, hesitant to speak.

"just in case……"

Heymos still looked at his hand, moved his fingers a little, and felt the flexibility of his fingers.

"Yes, don't meddle in things over there."

He said casually, "Don't worry, he can handle it."

"........."

What Suo Jia was worried about was in another sense, but he still didn't say it out in the end.

At the beginning, he swore in front of His Highness that 'people's hearts are sinister and people are selfish', telling His Highness not to trust Prince Garlan, but he turned around and was slapped in the face.

Prince Garlan protected His Highness, but he returned from that meeting without success.

So this time, he learned to keep his mouth shut wisely.

"and……"

"and?"

As soon as he heard the turning point in Heymos' words, Suoga, who was a conspiracy theorist, immediately lifted his spirits.

Sure enough, His Royal Highness still knew something in his heart.

His Highness must still be secretly guarding against Prince Garlan.

He thought with such satisfaction in his heart.

"Also, it's good to experience the feeling of being protected by Garlan once in a while."

Heymos said that the words were understated, but the words were full of pampering that seemed to overflow.

The black eyelashes drooped slightly, but there was a smile in the half-covered eyes.

Suo Jia: "..."

Ah, my heart is so tired.

Not long ago, he was eaten by his mortal enemy, a certain priest of Shamash, and now he ate some kind of greasy food that he didn't want to eat from his prince, so Suojia was exhausted physically and mentally.

…………

........................

The commotion caused by the sudden incident in the Plaza of the Gods has calmed down, and the red armored knight, whose arm was bitten off by the big lion and stomped heavily, has completely passed out.

With a wave of his hand, Sa Ge asked his subordinates to carry the traitor down, together with the bloody severed arm.

He will not let this betrayer go, but before that, he must interrogate who the instigator behind this betrayer is.

Since you dare to attack the Royal Knights, you must be prepared to meet the wrath of the Royal Knights.

So far, things have come to light.

In order to lead the troops to the rescue of Tozes City, Prince Heymos stole the soldier amulets guarded by the royal knights, and the betrayer of the royal knights waited for Prince Heymos to leave and killed him by taking advantage of his companions' trust in him. Killed two knights, and put the blame on Prince Heymos.

However, there is another problem.

Although Heymos has been cleared of the crime of killing the royal knights, it is an indisputable fact that he used military talismans to mobilize the army without the permission of King Kamos.

He himself has admitted it.

And this matter... can be big or small.

Everything depends on the thought of King Kamos.

"Prince Garlan, you have found the real culprit, but Prince Heymos still committed the crime of stealing the soldier amulet, so we will continue to guard him until King Kamos makes a verdict."

Captain Sage said to Garlan.

Compared with the first meeting, his attitude towards Garlan was less indifferent and more sincere.

Garlan helped him catch the traitors of the Royal Knights, preventing their honor from being tarnished.

It is equivalent to being kind to him and being kind to the Royal Knights.

Therefore, apart from King Kamos, the only one who could treat him like this was Prince Garlan.

Garlan was also silent for a while at this moment.

Then, he nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

In any case, the Heymos matter... is not going to be easy.

After all, military power is extremely sensitive no matter which dynasty or generation it is in.

He couldn't think of any good way for a while.

His eyes swept across the ministers and nobles opposite. Those people had different expressions, and some of them couldn't see any expressions, but he could vaguely feel that they all had their own thoughts.

Especially the silent chief, who didn't know what was going on in his mind.

...If only Brother Kamos was here now.

At this moment, Garlan couldn't help thinking this in his heart.

He just had this thought in his mind.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the edge of the square.

"The arrival of King Kamos—"

That loud shout shocked the audience.

Everyone standing on the square turned around in unison and looked towards the entrance of the square.

A tall figure led a group of knights striding towards the square.

The brown hair like a lion's mane, the calm and majestic face, and the burly and vigorous body made everyone's hearts tremble.

Seeing the familiar figure in the distance, the noble ministers on the high platform couldn't sit still.

They stood up one after another.

King Kamos strode forward, striding vigorously.

The wind whistled and lifted the thick crimson cloak behind him.

His golden-brown eyes were full of energy, and with a sweep of his tiger eyes, everyone bowed their heads in submission.

The entire square was silent at this moment.

It was as if time had stopped at this moment.

There was no need for anyone to yell at them, or anyone to remind them. Naturally, in silence, the crowded crowd automatically backed away to the sides, revealing a wide and straight road leading to the high platform.

Then, they all bent down and knelt on the ground, with their foreheads on the ground.

They are piously expressing their submission to the king.

Kamos walked between the crowd who knelt on both sides and bowed their heads deeply to him.

His brown hair was flying in the air, and his posture was like a lion king majestically patrolling his territory.

The bright sunlight fell and paved the road that everyone gave way to, reflecting a golden light.

King Aaron Landis, who was striding forward, seemed to be walking on a path formed by the gathering of lights.

Behind that stalwart body, the crimson cloak like a burning flame fluttered behind him as he strode forward.

There was no one standing on either side of him.

When he stepped onto the high platform, the ministers and nobles, royal knights, guard knights and others who stood on the high platform also knelt down one after another.

Even the Prime Minister You, who has always been relying on the old to sell the old, the Chief Secretary who has a scheming heart, and everyone who has their own thoughts are all kneeling down on their knees honestly at this moment, bowing their heads deeply to King Kamos standing in front of them.

Camos, the king of Aaron Landis.

The king of heroes.

The king of lions.

The prestige shook the Quartet.

When he was there, no one dared to look up.

Wherever he went, there was no need for a roar to make everyone kneel to the ground.

……

The Chief Chief, who bowed his head and knelt on the ground, was very disturbed. Don't look at him jumping up and down to make troubles when King Kamos was away, but in front of King Kamos, he is definitely one of the most honest people .

Perhaps it was because when the former king was poisoned, the bloody killing of King Kamos who had just ascended the throne in the royal city caused his fear of King Kamos.

That night, the blood-stained royal city was engraved in his heart with deep fear.

The reason why he dared to force the two princes was because King Kamos was away fighting and couldn't come back for a while.

Unexpectedly, according to the original plan, King Kamos, who was supposed to lead his army back in triumph four or five days later, came back ahead of schedule with only a small number of guards.

Feeling uneasy in his heart, the chief director made up his mind to speak first.

Seeing that King Kamos had strode towards him, he knelt and took a step forward, and opened his mouth when King Kamos passed by him.

"King, I..."

It was only a few minutes since the appearance of King Kamos, and he had already figured out how to explain it to King Kamos.

He was eager to speak first, to take the lead.

However, as soon as he uttered a few words, he watched those long legs step past him without stopping for a second.

He opened his mouth, all the words stuck in his throat.

A chuckle suddenly came from the crowd kneeling together, it was low, and it was unclear who made it, which made the chief director's face turn red all of a sudden.

It has been a long time since he was humiliated one after another like today.

If it was someone else, he would have been furious.But the other party was King Kamos, so he could only keep his anger in his stomach, and continued to kneel obediently.

Walking past everyone without stopping, King Kamos walked straight in front of Garlan.

Unexpectedly, King Kamos would actually appear at this moment, Garlan was a little bit surprised, and there was surprise in his surprise.

Seeing King Kamos walking in front of him, Garlan, who finally recovered from his surprise, showed a happy smile.

He opened his mouth, wanting to happily call out Brother Wang.

However, before he could make a sound, those strong arms stretched out and hugged him.

The strength of the arms holding him was so great that he was a little out of breath.

And the look on King Kamos's face at this moment made him a little at a loss.

King Kamos hugged Garlan very tightly. Even under the watchful eyes of everyone, he didn't care about the surprised eyes of others, and hugged the person in his arms tightly.

His tense movements seemed as if Garlan would disappear in front of him if he let go.

Holding the boy in his arms, Kamos thought of the days and nights that were like suffering.

He was used to galloping on the battlefield, and only on the battlefield would he feel excited and excited. He had never felt that war was so difficult.

From the day I received the message that 'Torzeth City may fall to pirates', every day has been a torment.

He remembered a long time ago, on the day when he received the news that his father was critically ill, he hurried back from the battlefield day and night to the royal city, but what he saw was his father's pale remains.

He still remembers the feeling that his heart seemed to freeze at that moment.

After many years, he once again felt the same mood as that day.

……

The fearless Lion King.

Everyone in the world calls him that.

But no one knew what kind of fear he was surrounded by during this time.

He is the king of Aaron Landis.

It is his responsibility to protect Aaron Landis.

Before the battle with Yisi is over, it is impossible for him to leave half a step.

He didn't dare to think about it, what if his younger brother was really...

Holding Garlan tightly in his arms, feeling the familiar temperature, his tense spirit finally eased down slowly.

The cold chest seemed to recover a little heat at this moment, allowing him to feel his heartbeat again.

What lingered at the tip of his nose was an aura that made him feel extremely at ease.

"Brother Wang?"

Kamos was awakened by a low cry, he let go of his arms, and looked at the boy in his arms.

On his way back anxiously, he already knew all about the battle of Torzes.

He knew how difficult and dangerous that battle was.

His younger brother looked up at him, the boy's face still had a bit of childishness, and he looked at him with confusion in his eyes.

But at the same time, this child's childishness also has the perseverance to bear everything.

This young man with a soft appearance has a will that surpasses any strong person.

King Kamos looked at those bright golden eyes, his eyes were so gentle and full of emotion.

He has always felt that his brother is still young and needs to be sheltered under his wings.

But before he knew it, the child he had always held and cared for had grown into a handsome tree, protecting a piece of land with his own strength.

He held Garlan's shoulder and grinned.

He said, "Garlan, you are my pride."

Shemuer's proposal to him, he considered for a long time.

And at this moment, he finally made up his mind.

Although it is only a young tree, it is tough enough and has experienced enough storms.

So, it's time.

King Kamos turned his head and glanced at everyone with burning eyes.

"I hereby declare—"

King Kamos standing on a high platform looked down at the crowd.

Bright sunlight shrouded the land, and stone statues of the gods surrounded the square, looking down upon their people.

Under the gaze of the gods, the voice of King Kamos resounded throughout the square.

"One month later, on the day of the Aaron Landis National Ceremony, the day of the celebration of the gods of Aaron Landis."

He says,

"I will make Garlan the crown prince of Aaron Landis!"

The Lion King's thick voice seemed so powerful that it pierced through the sky.

There was silence between heaven and earth.

In the entire land, only this one voice echoed.

Echoed in the stone statues of the gods of Aaron Landis standing on the square.

Immediately afterwards, the entire square exploded with a bang.

…………

Amidst the uproar, Garlan was completely dazed.

No.

and many more.

...wait for me!

王兄

It was with difficulty that I escaped death from the city of Tozeth.

You are killing me now——
