After Becoming The Tyrant

This is a scene that is too lonely, so lonely that people feel that the king sitting quietly in the terracotta is being weathered little by little by time, the road of the king is so lonely, so lonely that even the world can't stand it.

A slender figure stood in the scorched forest.

The devil came quietly.

His face was paler than usual, standing in the woods as if blending with the surrounding scorched wood, like an unreal phantom.Holding a black umbrella, he came to mourn the Duke of Buckingham as if it was a fitting occasion.

He twirled the black umbrella gently.

In fact, what qualifications do human beings have to say that the devil in hell is too treacherous?

Unscrupulous is not the patent of hell, but the means of all madmen.The Qiangwei family is probably a typical lunatic. After all, how many existences in the world dare to fight against the gods, and dare to plot hell?

Representatives of the Rose family of the generation of William III and the Duke of Buckingham completed such a wonderful fraud.

More than ten years ago, William III unified Legrand's 36 states.

The Holy Court will not sit back and watch William III push down the knife of reform. Across the abyss, they have activated the nails that have been planted in Legrand for so many years, setting off a series of political turmoil.That era was also steeped in swords and flames, and the most dangerous moment was Queen Eleanor's pregnancy.

In the womb of a young black-haired queen, the lord of destiny was conceived.

The Holy Court is no longer preserved, and all the hidden nails are removed. In the month when the crown prince is about to be born, William III had to personally lead an army to the southwest to quell the rebellion. Outside the palace, new blood soaked the land of the palace every day.

In that month, the Pope led one of the Holy Court's twelve sanctuaries, and left the Holy City for the first time in the name of "The Mandate of Heaven" and came across the sea.

He came to baptize the newborn Crown Prince.

Papal baptism is an honor, a charism that cannot be refused.

No country can refuse the arrival of the pope's carriage, and no country's crown is not worn by the Holy Court.As long as William III refused, the Pope would have enough reason to launch a holy "Western Expedition" against Legrand, forcing Legrand to surrender by force.

Either accept the baptism and let the new monarch be controlled by the Holy Court and become a puppet of the Holy Court.

Either refuse the baptism and let the army of the Holy Western Expedition land in Legrand. There are too many countries eager to use a Western Expedition to plunder the land of Legrand, and the states in Legrand are also unwilling to surrender to the Qiangwei family. Rule... The Qiangwei family cannot bear such a conquest.

Unless they want Legrand, who is moving toward unity, to collapse again.

William III wanted to choose none.

The Qiangwei family has fought against the Holy Court for thousands of years, and they have found a way to resist the Holy Court's secret method baptism through the fall of one young monarch after another.The ordinary secret method was carried out by the archbishop of the holy court, and the Qiangwei family found a way to resist it, but the baptism performed by the pope himself used the real blood of the gods.

How precious is the blood of the gods, even the Holy Court will not use it lightly.

In the history of the Qiangwei family, only one king was baptized by the Pope himself, and that was the "Mad King" Henry.

The devil remembered the monarch who was later named "Mad King".

He was crowned king at the age of 16. Before the age of 23, Henry was an impeccable monarch. In his hands, the territory of the Legrand royal family gradually recovered, and the majesty of the royal family gradually became stronger. , but the method used by the Qiangwei family to fight against the baptism is no match for the blood of the gods.

Henry did not become a puppet being manipulated, but from that moment on, the out-of-control madness entangled the supposedly great monarch like a shadow.

He became the "Mad King".

The former hero is becoming more and more unable to control himself. When his reason is overwhelmed by madness, he will become a beast that only knows how to kill.At the last moment of his life, when the mad king Henry realized in a brief sobriety that his loss of control was destroying everything he had worked so hard to build, he handed the sword to his son.

Mad King Henry's last order in his life was for his son to kill him.

William III and the Duke of Buckingham did not want to give birth to a second tragic mad king.

They want to keep a calm and sober monarch for the Qiangwei family, and they want Legrand to continue on the road to prosperity instead of dying on the way again and again.

So in a land swept by a violent storm, William III reached a deal with the devil who had been looking for thousands of years.From that moment on, the most honorable person in a country was bet on this war that didn't know how long it would last, and he became the most important pawn.

The devil sighed faintly.

It can't be blamed that he was deceived by that bastard William III in ecstasy. After all, who would have thought of it?

Who would have thought that the Qiangwei family would use their king as a pawn and throw it into this war.

Take the king as chess.

Such a country, such a family, such a sad and hopeless fate.

His king, his majesty.

The devil thought, and walked towards the king. When approaching the king, he deliberately made a little footsteps.

The king didn't look back. When the footsteps came behind him, he drew out the sword at his waist with his backhand, and stabbed precisely at the back.

No stab.

"Good day, my dear majesty." The devil closed his umbrella and bowed.

"I didn't summon you." The king didn't take back the sword, and the cold light on the blade flickered slightly, announcing the master's rising hostility.

The devil smiled helplessly: "...I will choose a good time to see you next time. However, please forgive me for a while today, for the sake of a gift I brought you."

"A gift from hell to you. The Holy Court has occupied it for too long. I brought it back for you."

The devil's voice became erratic.

Hearing that the "Holy Court" king finally stood up, he looked at the slightly bent devil with no expression, holding a long and narrow black iron box in the devil's hands.

"what is this?"

The king didn't take it.

"A bunch of keys."

The devil looked up at the king and showed a faint smile. That smile was not like the usual mask that usually hangs on the face of the devil, and there was a mockery of something else hidden in the smile.

"The key to the Millennium Kingdom."

"Those people in the holy court enshrined it in the temple as an ordinary holy object, but spent hundreds of thousands of years looking for it... Do you think it's ridiculous?" The devil's tone towards the holy court made no secret of its malice , "So I brought it to you, I think you must hope that if this war really breaks out, it will be you who opened it instead of the Pope's idiots?"

The devil knows his Majesty too well.

The millennium is approaching, and the war between the holy court and hell will start again.

If the world is destined to become a battlefield, then the king will definitely choose mortals to start this war.

The king looked at the devil with an unchanged expression for a long time, and finally reached out to take the black iron box.

"Then... please allow me to take my leave first, Your Majesty." The devil straightened up.

"Are there still souls here?"

At the moment when the devil's figure was about to fade away, the king suddenly spoke, his voice was very soft, if it wasn't the devil who was here, others might not be able to hear it clearly.

But the devil heard it clearly, and he even recognized a glimmer of hope under the calm voice.

The devil sighed in his heart...

He took his leave early to avoid answering the question, but the king asked it anyway.

The devil was no longer in a hurry to leave. He bowed to the king and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty."

The king closed his eyes.

Although Pu'erlan is broken, it will eventually be beautiful in nirvana... His father and his uncle had hidden all the answers in his name early on.

Distant, childhood memories come to mind.

It was in Legrand, while he was conscious, that the Duke of Buckingham taught him and John how to fencing.During the break, the Duke of Buckingham told them the deeds of each ancestor in the family. All the stories began with the same legend. It was a long time of legend, and there was a family who wanted to slay the dragon.

"This family has drawn up a long conspiracy to slay the dragon in disgraceful means. Are they shameful?" In the afternoon sun, the Duke of Buckingham seemed to be asking himself, or asking two young children "How can there be any fairness in the war between mortals and dragons?"

Unspeakable grief surged like a tide.

He should have told his uncle.

The Duke of Buckingham need not feel guilty, William III and he have never done anything wrong.

He knew that he was a chess piece thrown by the Rose family on the battlefield. After he returned to Legrand, after he was fully awake, he knew that his past years were also a long-lasting war. The war waged by the holy court.

He didn't have time to tell the Duke of Buckingham that it was nothing.

They should have been the most daring planners, this is a dance on the tip of the knife, and if they don't do it well, they will be smashed to pieces.The Qiangwei family used conspiracy to kill the evil dragon back then, and now they don't hesitate to use disgraceful means to subvert the world of extraordinary people.

The war between mortals and gods was unfair from the very beginning, so where is the glory?

He is willing to be such a pawn.

………………

After the long-awaited knights were finally allowed to step on the slope, they finally knew what was in the carriage they brought out this time.

It was an empty coffin.

The king opened the coffin and put the blood-colored soil into the coffin with his own hands.

"I'll show you the suppression of the rebellion in the North, the unification of Legrand, and the beginning and end of this war." The king whispered, "I'll... take you back."

How long has this war been going on?

How long will it continue?
