Lord of Lowland

Chapter 240 Cecil's Conjecture
Cecil was thinking about his own thoughts when he suddenly saw Earl Kasikund looking at him with a very complicated look. Suddenly, his heart moved. He did have something to hide from Count Kasikold, but it was not No matter what the big problem, everyone will have their own little secrets. Of course, I have no obligation to know everything about Earl Kasikund, and it is impossible for the Earl to tell himself all his secrets without reservation.Therefore, Cecil is still very calm towards the Earl.

There was no other activity while everyone was eating and drinking. Cecil also saw that whether it was Duke Fatam or Prince Rex, today's banquet was actually just a cover. Rex publicly told Cecil the real purpose. In my words, Prince Rex supports the abolition of the agency system. This is the true meaning of prince. This is what politics is like. There are so many tricks, but the meaning is in these few words, Cecil Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my head.

The meal was over soon, and Cecil was a little less interested in the next dance. Although he could officially enter the dance hall as a nobleman this time, it was not a party for young men and women, but all the people who came to the party were Some old and respectable old nobles were given dancing partners by the maids of Duke Shi's family. In addition, Cecil's thoughts were almost not on it, so the dance ended quickly.

On the way back to the Earl's mansion, the Earl and Cecil sat in the carriage relatively silent. The Earl wanted to ask Cecil about the inheritance of Prince Maisar and Lanteros' destiny, but since Cecil did not say that the Earl also It’s not good to just ask, now is not just now, the inheritance of the Fate Knight of Lanteros is a very tall thing even in the eyes of the earl.The earl didn't know what to say to Cecil for a while.And Cecil was obviously very embarrassed by this atmosphere. He wanted to talk to the count to ease the atmosphere, but obviously he didn't know what to say, and the two of them just looked at each other in silence for a while. other side.

Soon the carriage returned to the Earl's Mansion. The Earl asked Cecil to take a seat. Cecil declined the Earl's invitation very politely and walked out of the Earl's Mansion.Cecil knew that the earl might have some opinions about him because of this, but he believed that the earl could also understand him.Cecil was surprised by many things today. Whether it was at the Temple of Dawn or the banquet at Duke Fatam's mansion, there were too many things that he needed to sort out.

Cecil returned to his house, the place where he had theoretically lived for many years. The old housekeeper Acat and the servant Ashan who accompanied him had moved to their residence with him.This place that has been promoted to his mansion seems a bit deserted, but Cecil doesn't mind too much, this is exactly what he needs, there are too many things on this day, and he needs to sort out his thoughts.

By defeating Prince Maisar at the Landano Snow Peak, he undoubtedly unintentionally helped High Priest Alonso a big favor.This high priest and the high priest Clifford of the Ailuk Empire started this kind of fight when they were young. When both of them were close to a hundred years old, not only did it not subside as they grew older, but it intensified. .High Priest Alonso sent himself to the abyss this time and took such a big risk to find the Oracle Crown. Obviously, he wanted to go further and completely defeat his old enemy in front of the Lord of the Dawn so as to compete for favor, and he unintentionally became his tool.

However, Cecil doesn't care much about this. As long as the price is high enough and Priest Alonso has enough resources to repay him, then he doesn't mind being used by him as his tool, and those who are valuable can share with others. Play a game of mutual exploitation.On the contrary, what Cecil was more worried about was the unclear relationship between Priest Alonso, the blasphemous sect and the old man behind Sandro.All of this makes Cecil's mind beating. Although this old man is swearing in his mouth, his actions are very suspicious. I must always guard against him, and don't let him lead me into the ditch one day. to go.

As for the success rate of this operation, Cecil is also anxious. He has basically learned all the temple skills, and there is nothing to prepare for the equipment. Basically, his equipment has reached the upper limit. With the legendary suit of Hydra, he is already one of the best equipped in the world. Even a prince or princess whose country has mobilized the power of the royal family cannot have stronger equipment than him.The only thing he was dissatisfied with was his own level, the level of 97 made him feel like he couldn't spit it out.See if there is any way to improve your level within these 10 days, so that you can enter the holy rank.

As for the conversation with Ophelina in the afternoon, Cecil felt that there was no need to be so urgent.Ou Feilina is exquisite in all directions, and it has always been difficult for people to see what her cards are.Cecil doesn't know what her true face is, but Cecil believes that her good friend's death when she uttered the truth after drinking should not be fake, because she didn't need to offend the princess for no reason.This kind of thing is not good for her at all, so I am afraid that she has always had a natural hostility towards Princess Freya, so she probably won't really help Prince Lucas, which is also an important reason why Cecil said categorically today one.That is, Cecil never believed that Ofelina told him the truth.He has always believed that if given the chance, Ofelina would kill the princess without hesitation.

As for Prince Rex, Cecil was a little impressed with him.This prince is obviously a very ambitious man.And he grasped the breaking point of the conflict between the nobility and the royal power very well.He immediately grasped what the nobles needed most, which was undoubtedly the relaxation of royal power.So Rex made such a promise all at once. If the king criticized Rex for this, Rex would win praise among the nobles.Instead, it posed a moderate problem to the king.Of course, Cecil absolutely believes that such an ambitious Prince Rex is really willing to implement the abolition of the agency system. Once such an ambitious prince comes to power, he will inevitably inherit his father's legacy and stand against all the nobles again. But at least now the eldest prince expressed his willingness to stand on the side of the nobles and give the nobles a chance to expand their power. Whether Rex can take back his power after taking office depends on the methods of both parties.
