Devil two hundred and five

As it turned out, my joy was a little too early.

Of course, I must also admit that there is a big difference between Ryder and my annoying uncle.To be honest, I always feel that people in the Bauhinia royal family will never follow the usual path: some are innocent and ignorant of the world like my mother, some are crazy like Ryder, and Zelan's never do good things. Helen's rotten girl attributes... and Duke Pine Needle's balloon-like fat body.

To be honest, when I think of this...uncle who is so obese that he has surpassed the human scale, it is really not my whim, but the other party's sudden visit.

"...It is emotional to say that when I saw His Majesty, His Majesty was still a little baby who could be hugged with one hand, but now he has reached the age of being as heroic as my brother."

I tried my best not to complain about that heroic adjective, and managed to keep a smile on my face: "I haven't seen my uncle for a long time."

...Yes, if this guy hadn't suddenly interrupted me during afternoon tea, I would have forgotten about it long ago-although I still have a little impression of him because he used to quarrel with Minato every day over tax matters.

"Your Majesty," Duke Pine Needles squeezed out some false tears, "Unfortunately, I am sorry for the previous emperors. The current Bauhinia royal family can't even maintain autonomy, and even the authority of daily affairs has fallen to that thief Minato..."

Thief... Who are you talking about!

I just wanted to cast a fireball to teach this fat ball a lesson, but just as I tried to mobilize my mental power, I felt a throbbing pain in my lungs. Although the corruption of the dark power no longer continued, the previous damage had already accumulated, and I was forced to I let out a series of coughing sounds, and the adjutant next to me handed over a handkerchief, I wiped my mouth, and the smear of bright red was frightening—well, the color of the blood is much more normal now, and it is estimated that in a few weeks, I will be able to nourish this body Back to the state when His Majesty the King gave me.

"Duke Pine Needles really cares about state affairs." I said this sincerely. I always thought that he only had exploitation in his mind.

I don't know what the Duke of Pine Needles was thinking of, his face changed wonderfully from green to red, and then he made a very aristocratic fake grief expression: "I always remember that the blood flowing in my veins is from ancient times. Inherited from the sages. It is solemn and sacred."

I yawned.

The expression of Duke Pine Needle suddenly seemed to be greatly insulted, and he said sharply: "Your Majesty, I heard recently that some soldiers of the court saw the ghost of the former king floating here, and he must have suffered unknown injustice when he died. ...and now, the traitors are letting this country go to decay, making his soul restless...just like the play of Hamlet."

"Ah Choo!" I'm sorry, I didn't really want to interrupt him, but my nose was itchy.I waved my hand to show that I was still listening, "Duke, you can continue."

I glanced behind Duke Pine Needle: "... Maybe the former king is standing behind you, listening to you say these words."

Of course I'm not lying, Ryder is inherently easy to raise.His range of activities is not wide, most of the time, he just floats in mid-air with nothing to do, staring at the sun in a daze.At this moment, he was standing behind the Duke of Pine Needles, trying to touch the other's hair with great interest—of course, it ended in failure.

I didn't lie, but Duke Pine Needle's expression was even worse, he was so unhappy that he walked away without saying a word.I paused, and casually asked the adjutant, "...Did I do something just now?"

"Your Majesty, you didn't make any threats just now."

Ah, it turns out that what I just said was called a threat.I suddenly realized, and couldn't help asking: "What is Hamlet?"

"A very famous play, Hamlet is the prince in the play, his father was killed by the villain, the royal power was taken away, and Hamlet took revenge on the villain. The Duke of Pine Needles compared himself to that prince, right? .” The last sentence of the adjutant was faintly amused.Although there are indeed many people who are worried about the current situation, no matter what, no one expected Duke Pine Needle to do something good.

I clicked my tongue and waved my hand: "You go out first... Well, remember to inform the brave Minato, I want to see him." After so long, I miss Minato more and more. I wonder if he misses me.

The adjutant left obediently. I wrapped myself in a blanket, took a sip of warm tea, and asked Ryder, "Do you miss it?"

Ryder tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "It feels weird... At least in the situation I remember, my brother and I didn't have such a good relationship. His mother was a commoner, but she always felt that her son could become a king. In the end The queen mother taught them a lesson, and they became honest. Songzhen is a very timid child, during that time, he didn't even dare to look at me directly."

"Oh, that intimacy was fake." I explained casually.

Ryder nodded, as if he understood: "Why did he pretend?"

His question made me stumped for a while. I thought that although Ryder was not as cunning and cunning as Zelan, he was also an old fritter with absolute insight into the world.Although with the aid of the Demon King's pupils, I can easily discern the lies of human beings, but how to explain them is really difficult for me.

Finally, I explained: "For world peace, so people always pretend to be in love."

"World peace?" Ryder's eyes completely turned into circles.

"Let me explain it this way." I snapped my fingers, "If the Duke of Pine Needles directly said that so-and-so is a lunatic who killed his father, go to hell and give me the throne, will so-and-so be furious and kill him directly."

Ryder nodded knowingly: "Indeed."

"Furthermore, if you love someone deeply, but that person doesn't love you at all, would you want to kill him... But if that person doesn't love you, but pretends to love you very much, wouldn't you Do you think you are the happiest person in the world?"

"..."

"So, honesty is the great enemy of peace. As long as the other party doesn't realize that it's a lie, you can maintain this illusion forever, as long as you want."

"..."

I closed my eyes and rested for a while before I heard Ryder suddenly ask: "...Have you ever loved someone? If you have, how could you not care, whether the other party loves you or not?"

"How could it not be."

I replied in a low voice, those voices were floating in the wind: "I like Minato, but I will never find out what he thinks. It doesn't matter if it is true or false...as long as he stays with me I will do my best to keep it going.”

I said in a daze, a very faint shadow seemed to float past my eyes, I couldn't remember who that person was, but a deep sadness overflowed.Even if it is a false appearance, some people will not even give you this kind of compassion.

"...It sounds very pitiful." Ryder thought for a long time before making a final comment.

"I'm not greedy, so it doesn't matter. And..." I laughed happily, "Ami is a guy who is easy to soften his heart. He is reluctant to hurt others, especially the kind of person who loves him."

"I really don't know how Minato will feel when he hears your statement." A handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes walked in from the door.The person who came was Zeran Dia who used the Minato shell.

"..." I couldn't help but pause.

"Tell me, are you looking for me because of recent legends about ghosts of former kings?"

"No." I put down the teacup and waved to His Majesty the king, "You can go."

"...Hey, didn't you call me over?"

"Yes." I replied confidently, "But I am not calling His Majesty the King, I am calling Ami, I just remembered that you have occupied Minato's body."

"You..." His Majesty the King became angry for a while.

Immediately, his eyes narrowed, and then he looked at the place where Ryder was, and a holy light came out: "Who is it?"

Ryder floated in mid-air, motionless, as the holy light from His Majesty the King passed by at least half a meter away from him.

——To be honest, with Minato's body, he can still shoot like this, His Majesty the King is also a talent.

I clicked twice, if you give me Minato's shell...

... The fun play of body swapping is actually very exciting!It's best to put 360-degree mirrors on all of them, and... maybe I can do the attack!At least in terms of physical strength...

Thinking of this, I looked at His Majesty the King with eagerness.

His Majesty the King twitched the corners of his mouth unnaturally, he stared at Ryder, and showed a sweet smile: "You are still alive... oh, although you are no longer a living being, it's strange, why do I feel that I have waited for this day? It's been a long time, I'm really unlucky, my current identity is a 'brave'..."

Ryder looked at His Majesty the King in confusion, and then asked me: "Your Excellency, although he is also smiling and faking his emotions, it feels like there is no way to avoid a battle between me and him."

"Ah, he is weird, and weirdness cannot be measured by common sense."

His Majesty the King had a few black lines on his forehead, he ignored my words, he just drew out the Holy Angel Sword and slashed at Ryder.

Ryder loomed behind me, a ghost with little interest in attacking others: "His movements are so clumsy, like a child wielding a ten-ton sledgehammer."

"Don't ask too much of him." I replied casually, "Not everyone can use Minato's power freely."

His Majesty's face was black and black. Although the ghost could not harm him, he could not really destroy him. Moreover, my conversation with the ghost also made His Majesty realize that some things are beyond his control: "Francis, do you know who he is?"

"I know, your father, my uncle."

"Do you know what kind of man he is?"

I thought about it, it's really not easy to generalize, I chose the simplest answer: "bad guys."

"Then why don't you let him die?" Although His Majesty the King expressed hatred to the bone, he probably didn't realize the complex emotions contained in his tone.

"He's not, at least not whole," I explained. "He's a ghost, just a memory carrier of your father's unfulfilled wish."

"..." The king was silent for a long time before answering softly, "The unfulfilled wish is to become a member of the black wizard?"

He seemed to have finally calmed down. When he was agitated, he really didn't look like the King I remembered.Now, the corner of his mouth curled up into a harmless smile, but it was inexplicably a little cold: "I want to know two things."

"First, what exactly is Father's wish?"

When His Majesty asked this question, I couldn't help becoming curious: "Ryder, what is your wish?"

Although Ryder is not a person who likes to publicize everywhere, he couldn't refuse when I spoke, so he bowed and replied softly: "I don't know how to explain it, but if I want to explain it clearly... Please review a paragraph Remembered."
