In a spacious room in a luxurious villa, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Levi knelt on his knees, clenched his hands, and looked at the middle-aged noble in front of him with a pleading expression.

The nobleman had a stern face, dressed in meticulously gorgeous traditional aristocratic clothing, and his brows were filled with sadness and anger.

"Lord Duke Joseph, you must save me. The content of the Steambird Newspaper is reported according to your requirements," Levi begged, "If I am sent to the West Factory, I will be completely finished."

After hearing this, Joseph frowned and angrily cursed: "That Ide is such a crazy lunatic! Not only did he make the Academy of Sciences a mess, but now he even doesn't let the Steam Bird Newspaper go."

As he spoke, he paced back and forth in the room anxiously, obviously racking his brains for a solution.

Levi, who was kneeling on the ground, did not move. He just secretly observed Joseph's reaction from the corner of his eyes from time to time, his heart full of anticipation and uneasiness.

After a long time, Joseph finally made up his mind and said: Levi, you take action immediately, unite all influential journalists and writers, and publish a strong criticism of the West Factory in the Steambird. I want everyone to know what they did. "

Levi responded as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, "Yes, Your Excellency, I'll do it right away."

The anxiety in his heart dissipated a lot with Duke Joseph's decision.

Not long after he hurried away, Joseph walked towards Momang Palace with his guards.

After entering the Momang Palace, he explained his purpose to Funina's housekeeper Sedna, who immediately went to Funina's room and reported the matter.

When she heard that Duke Joseph requested an audience, a hint of surprise flashed across Furninna's eyes.

She quickly gathered her thoughts and told Sedna to invite Duke Joseph to her reception room.

Not long after, the two sat opposite each other in the elegantly decorated reception room.

With a smile on her face, Funina asked politely, "Duke Joseph, what brings you here?"

Prince Joseph did not directly respond to Funina's question, but immersed himself in memories of the past.

He spoke slowly, his voice revealing a trace of vicissitudes: "Lord Funina, when you first ascended to the throne, Fontaine was in turmoil. The pure water elves and many humans were suspicious of you, and some even thought that you had usurped the throne of God.

At that critical moment, it was our family that stepped forward and fully supported you, which enabled you to secure your position as God.

Later, in the fierce battle with the rebel organization Water Purification Society, our family paid a heavy price.

There were more than 500 people in the whole clan, but only a few survived. "

Although Furninna had never experienced this past event, she also understood something about it. She knew what Joseph meant by saying this. He was simply trying to show her the hard work and great contributions of these nobles.

Joseph went on to say: “However, the recent series of actions by the West Factory have chilled the hearts of our family who once sacrificed their lives for you.

Not only did they wantonly purge the Fontaine Academy of Sciences, they also targeted the Steam Bird Newspaper, which was dedicated to exposing the truth and spreading justice, in an attempt to cover up the truth with one hand. "

Finina frowned slightly, and she responded calmly: "Duke Joseph, I understand your concerns. But as far as I know, the West Factory has no intention of covering up everything."

Joseph said fiercely: “Lady Funina, I respect your opinion.

But the Steambird is an important platform for speech in Fontaineland. If even it cannot speak freely, then where will our justice go?

We cannot sit idly by and watch the West Factory wantonly trample on our freedom of speech, and we cannot tolerate them wantonly trampling on the justice and fairness of Fontaine."

Fu Nina couldn't think of any words to refute at the moment, so she evaded the question by saying, "I will order the Western Factory to regulate their investigation behavior."

Prince Joseph was evidently not satisfied with this answer.

He said in an almost threatening tone: "If the West Factory still does not let go of the Steam Bird News, I will jump off the top of the Momang Palace at all costs. I am willing to use my blood to defend the justice of Fontaine, which is in danger.

If Duke Joseph really took such an extreme action, the serious consequences would be self-evident.

Not only would it arouse fierce opposition from the entire aristocratic class, but even the common people would feel extremely dissatisfied with Funina and the Western Factory, which was undoubtedly something Funina could not bear.

Under such pressure, Funina had to compromise: "Okay, I understand what you mean. Please believe that I will handle this matter properly."

Duke Joseph looked at her deeply and said in a heavy tone: "Lady Funina, I hope you can cherish the loyalty of our families to you. Don't let our passion cool down."

After saying this, he stood up and said goodbye, leaving the reception room with some determination.

Looking at Duke Joseph's back getting farther and farther away, Funina felt overwhelmed.

The origin of Fontaine's current nobility can be traced back to the time when Fukaros hastily ascended the throne after the fall of Egolia.

At that time, the situation in Fontaine was in chaos, and countless powerful pure water elves and human families expressed strong opposition to the new god.

They questioned Fukaros' qualifications and even went so far as to start a war to defend their own interests.

Later, with the help of some pure water elves and human families, Fucaros gradually stabilized the situation.

These pure water elves and human families became the first nobility, with privileges that were above the law.

The pure water elves had long disappeared from Fontaine, leaving only the human family.

The nobility has infiltrated every aspect of Fontaine, and the resistance to completely eradicating them will become increasingly greater.
