11 month 15 day.

Diocletian, who was stood up by Joseph, was very angry, but only for a short time.

The current situation on the Halkidiki continent was not good for him, so he had no time to settle accounts with Joseph. He rushed back to the country to discuss with many princes and nobles what to do next.

He didn't know that Joseph, who had stood him up, was in great trouble.

Goliath, in the forest outside the royal capital.

"What do you mean?"

Joseph looked with a dark face at the army that surrounded him and Sheffield in three layers.

Of course he recognized that this army was not the royal army of Goria, but the private army of those nobles.

After all, Wang’s army only obeys Wang and it is impossible for them to attack Wang Liang.

But what Joseph didn’t understand now was why this group of people dared to act so arrogantly towards him outside the royal capital. Were they really not afraid of death?

Several thoughts came to my mind.

He found that he seemed to have miscalculated a little.

Perhaps the purpose of planning all this was not to kill him through Diocletian, but to get rid of him and seize power and usurp the throne.

Of course, it is also possible to use both methods at the same time.

"Joseph, your game of acting king is over. From today on, the king of Goria is Charlotte Elenu Orrea."

A pot-bellied middle-aged man standing at the front of the army spoke leisurely, flicking the plaster between his fingernails as he spoke.

As he spoke a path parted among the troops.

Tabatha came forward on a white horse, and the dragon, wearing a dark green cloak and riding a black horse, followed behind her.

"She? What qualifications does she have?"

"That's definitely more qualified than you, Mr. Joseph Fareno Orrea."

There are some things that Tabatha, a younger generation, may not know, but for the old dukes like them who have lived through the era of the previous king, it is not a secret at all.

The two names mentioned one after another are not full names. The real full name is quite long, just like Louise's full name, except that the names of some past queens are omitted.

Farenu and Erenu are the names of Joseph's mother and Tabatha's grandmother respectively.

Joseph and Tabatha's fathers were half brothers.

But the difference is that Erenu is the queen of the previous king, the woman that King Goria puts on the table.

And Farenu was a commoner maid of the previous king. To put it bluntly, Joseph was originally an illegitimate child, but he was forced to the stage and given an identity by the overbearing previous king.

Because Joseph in the past thought he had no talent for magic, he always behaved very humbly, and he wanted to assist his younger brother from the bottom of his heart, so the late king trusted him and recognized his royal status.

However, Joseph's mentality gradually changed after he discovered that he was a user of nothingness.

This is one of the reasons why Joseph's brother is the legitimate heir, and not Joseph.

Even if Joseph's brother died, the legitimate heir should be Tabatha, who was also named "Erenu", and it would never be the turn of a commoner's child.

Some young dukes and most of the lower-ranking nobles were unaware of this matter.

But it is impossible that he, who is a sworn brother of the late king, had not heard about this matter from the late king.

He must be dissatisfied with this matter. After all, what qualifications does a commoner's child have to stand above them, the nobles?

But there was no way. At that time, Tabatha was too young to shoulder the responsibility, and his mother was controlled by Joseph. People like him who were among the few who knew the situation could only endure it.

Now that Tabatha has received help from a mysterious force, all his worries are gone, so there is no need for him to keep this matter secret any longer.

"Duke Mordred, can I take it that you are challenging the dignity of the royal family?"

Joseph's face turned livid.

Joseph was somewhat broken down by the revelation of his most reluctant secret.

"Do you need me to explain the concept of the royal family to you? Or do you not understand what I just said?"

Mordred looked down at Joseph as if he was looking at a worm.

When the previous king was still king, or when Tabatha's father was still king, then Joseph, as his son and brother, was indeed a member of the royal family.

But the previous king abdicated, and the current king is Tabatha, so only Tabatha's direct relatives are the royal family. Joseph, as Tabatha's uncle, has been excluded from the royal family.

At most, Joseph could be granted the title of Grand Duke, and that was only if the king agreed.

"You're going to rebel, huh? Sheffield, send the signal."

Joseph laughed in anger and looked at Sheffield who had remained quiet beside him.

"Hmm? Sheffield?"

But when he took a look, he found something wrong.

At this moment, Sheffield's eyes were full of pink light, and he stood there in a daze like an unconscious puppet.

Just when Joseph was about to touch Sheffield, the latter slowly turned his head and looked at Joseph and said:

"You only have one choice now, surrender."

Looking at the familiar Sheffield in front of him, Joseph felt creepy and his back was lit up.

What kind of power could even control the Void Familiar 'God's Brain' Misnitron?

The one who could control Sheffield must naturally be hypnosis or kaleidoscope-level illusion.

But only those few of the Kaleidoscopes didn't come, and besides the powerful psychic Pokémon, only Dark can use hypnosis.

So, in fact, it was Dark who was secretly controlling Sheffield with hypnosis.

"Joseph, we now suspect you of 'intending to rebel and usurp the throne', so we will arrest you and announce it to the entire capital when we return. Do you have any objections?"

"What the hell."

Joseph almost had a cerebral hemorrhage after hearing this.

Who is the one who is plotting a rebellion and usurping the throne? You are just trying to put the blame on someone else, right?

All of this must be announced to the entire capital.

Although this 'Incompetent King' really doesn't care much about his reputation, after all, it's already very bad.

But once his true identity is announced to the whole capital, he will never be able to return to the throne of Goria again.

This was going to completely put an end to his ambitions.

"You can't."

Bang!

Before Joseph could finish his words, Sheffield stabbed him in the back of the neck.

"Bring back."

. . .

When Joseph opened his eyes and woke up, he found himself in a desert.

In front of him was the Pope who was looking at him with excitement.

"Why are you here?!"

Joseph wanted to struggle, but found that he could not move.

When he looked up and down, he saw that he was tied to a huge cross, and the Pope, who was one meter away from him, was in the same situation.

"I didn't expect to see you here. It seems that Goliath is also one of his targets."

The Pope's voice was hoarse like a broken gong.

Joseph observed carefully and found that the Pope's skin was almost entirely covered with fine and dry wrinkles, and he was obviously severely dehydrated.

"Who is he? How long have you been here?"

"I don't know him either. That guy in Yicheng calls him God. I don't know how long he has been here."

The Pope shook his head, his lifeless eyes brightened up a bit because of Joseph's arrival, "There is no day or night here, so there is no concept of time."

"How to get out?"

"Give up. You can't get out. You don't know what this world, this prison, means."

The Pope grinned and shook his head weakly.

This smile caused his lower lip to split, and a few drops of blood flowed out of his lower lip. He licked it into his mouth and swallowed it.

"Hey, you're not just going to give up like this, are you?"

".You will understand in a few days."

The Pope no longer had any intention of continuing the conversation with Joseph.

He originally thought that Joseph might know something, but now it seems that he overestimated this guy.

He couldn't waste any more time talking to him.

The two men did not notice that there were two bugs installed on the other side of the two crosses that they could not see.

It was naturally an intentional arrangement to put these two people together.

It is to allow them to influence and communicate with each other, and maybe they will reveal some secrets of the magical world.

After all, these two guys are the number one boss and the second-number one boss in the original book. They must have a wealth of knowledge about Halkidiki and may know things that many people don’t know.

Magical world.

Joseph's identity and the fact that he killed the heir to the throne and seized power many years ago were all exposed, causing a huge sensation.

At the same time, taking advantage of this popularity, the legitimate heir to the throne, Charlotte, also known as Tabatha, also ascended the throne, which was considered to be in line with the orthodoxy.

Tabatha's ascension to the throne attracted cheers from many nobles and commoners.

After all, their king is finally no longer the 'incompetent king'.

And this girl seems to be more merciful and tolerant than that incompetent king. Even if she does nothing, their lives should be much better.

The appearance of the new king of Goria, Tabatha, had just spread across the continent when another incident shocked the whole world and even frightened the people of Garmania.

The second largest kingdom is the 'ambitious country' Goria, and the third largest kingdom is the 'neutral country' Romania.

Qi Qi announced his joining of the Peace Alliance.

The Peace Alliance grew from the original three major countries to five major countries, followed by countless unnamed small countries and towns joining in one after another.

The entire continent is gradually unifying, and the territories of the five major countries are gradually expanding with the addition of these small forces.

The most embarrassing situation in the wizarding world right now is the 'largest kingdom' Galmania.

Whether this continent will be unified as it is, or whether another crushing war will break out before unification, basically depends on Dacre's decision.

Diocletian is not a stubborn person, nor does he have any ambition to fight the alliance to the end and drag the entire kingdom into the war.

But he is a noble after all.

A step is needed, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing.
