I Will Be The Crowned King

Vol 2 Chapter 115: night talk

"Your Excellency Anson Bach, we finally meet again."

In the narrow attic single room, outside the cracked window is the cold wind and the pattering cold rain. The man with red hair and a single ponytail is still wearing a light gray coat that seems to have not been washed for many years. He smiled at Anson with a complicated expression:

"I know that in the past few months, you have suffered a lot of crimes and troubles because of your relationship with me, a second-class family and a detective, which completely shattered the idea of ​​​​you are ready to enjoy a peaceful life in the capital. , has pushed you to an extremely dangerous situation more than once."

"So I don't think it makes any sense to you now to explain to you 'I didn't mean to' or 'I didn't actually want to do this in the first place' or 'You also have some level of responsibility', so we Be realistic."

He stood up calmly, and bowed 90 degrees to Ansen with a standard gesture:

"I am sorry."

Looking at this extraordinarily "well-behaved" Draco Wilters in front of him, Anson's expression became extremely complicated.

How should I put it... Probably because on the one hand, I really want to strangle him, on the other hand, I understand him very well.

After all, if a powerless family wants to avenge their relatives, there is no particularly good way except to use the strength of others; and he has never deceived himself from the beginning to the end, let alone revealed to anyone that he is The old gods.

From this point of view, he doesn't seem to accuse him of his position-strictly speaking, he did not force himself to do anything. Even if he didn't intervene at the time, the Steel Sky would still have an accident, and the Black Mage and the Church would still come to the door. The army, dissatisfied with the church, will still find trouble for itself.

"one question."

Anson and Draco looked at each other with gloomy expressions, and said solemnly in a tone of incomprehension and annoyance:

"Before you explain why you're here, I want you to answer a question - Draco Wilts, what are you trying to do?"

"On the Iron Sky, you told me you were going to wipe out the Guards completely. I'll assume you didn't lie, so what happened after that?"

"Why do you know about the Black Mage's old **** party, why do you find Sophia Franz? And you know that the Guards are chasing you everywhere, why are you still on the "Crowe Truth" In your own name?"

"In addition, you told Carlin? Jacques Clovis city will become very dangerous... What danger, does it have anything to do with what happened tonight?"

Anson asked almost continuously in one breath.

"Uh... that doesn't seem to be a problem?" Draco laughed dryly:

"But I can answer you, yes, my goal has never changed from beginning to end - to completely destroy the Guards, and then put a new organization that can really establish order in Clovis City on their corpses. Birth!"

Draco stared into Anson's eyes and said calmly:

"Yes, I want to avenge the death of Miller Wilters, but not by killing an ordinary person who was killed by accident or mistake just for a living, but by having the Guards fight for their insecurities. Responsibility pays the price."

"That's my goal, and everything I've done since I got to Clovis is to make it happen."

"Like?" Anson raised his eyebrows.

"Like the Church of Order...or the Franz Family."

Draco replied very easily: "The Guards are the private soldiers of the royal family. Archbishop Luther Franz is the most powerful person in Clovis, and at the same time he is very close to His Majesty Carlos. It was him who was looking for it."

"Because of the North Harbor incident five years ago... uh, you may already know." Seeing Anson nodding, Draco continued with a smile:

"I'm listed in the church - it's not a good thing, but it also gave me a chance to meet the archbishop; I chatted with him about some of my ideas, he didn't like it very much, I don't know why he My daughter, Miss Sophia Franz, is particularly concerned about this."

Because she is a detective fan and a fan of cloud adventures... Anson complained silently in his heart.

"It took me a lot of effort to get rid of her stalking, and I still dare not stay in one place because of her 'seeking notice'." Draco smiled bitterly:

"But it also forced me to have to walk around Clovis, which in a sense helped my goals."

"In addition to Archbishop Luther Franz, I also met the chairman of the railway committee, the radical members of the Privy Council... I guess you should have met them too?"

Anson shrugged, tacitly.

"They don't like my proposal very much, but like the Archbishop, they are very interested in the 'a new type of security force that replaces the security force' that I propose. It is a small breakthrough."

With a long sigh, Draco's smile became more helpless:

"This is what I did a week after I arrived in Clovis City, and then I went around to avoid the pursuit of the guards and Sophia's follow-she learned about the black mage gathering from Mrs. Katerina, and I took the opportunity. Make an appointment with her to meet at the party, and by the way, get rid of the guards who have been chasing me."

And then I was at St. Isaac's College, in front of her and the guards in ambush... Anson looked up at the wind-beaten window.

"After that, I went to the outer city and learned through some channels that the Privy Council was going to forcefully push the Public Order Act and that the church was going to form a security army."

The family's voice was very low, and the voice began to gradually slow down:

"If all goes well with their plans, the Guards will be consolidated and reorganized in a few years' time into a new vigilante with greater powers but monitored; the original Guard commanders still occupy the The high-level position just adds more staff."

"This is good for the Privy Council, because the Guard is no longer the king's personal army; it is good for Archbishop Luther, because he can use the name of the Storm Corps to install the Franz family in the new security army. "It's good for every aristocrat in Clovis, every rich man who can live in the inner city, because that's what they want."

"But it's not good for me because it's not what I want."

An Sen frowned slightly: "Then what do you want?"

"I said, I want revenge for Miller, I want the Guards to disappear forever from this world, I want to fundamentally erase their existence value, and make them more qualified to bring stability to Clovis City. replaced it.”

Draco smiled, but his tone was stronger than in the box of the Iron Sky:

"If it is replaced by a super-large security company that only protects the inner city, or a guard force that is 10,000 times stronger, then everything I have done will be meaningless."

"I must find a way to thoroughly intensify the contradiction between the Guards and the various forces, so that the existence of the old gods, the threat of the outer city and the incompetence of the Guards will be fully displayed in front of everyone!"

"So you deliberately published your new story in Clovis Facts?"

"Although I'm very sorry to the boss of "Truth", this incident has indeed deepened the contradiction between the church and the guards." Draco said frankly:

"Oh, that's still in the series by the way; I've written quite a few adventures, Detective Yasen is by far the best seller, and you and that lovely Miss Lisa have inspired me a lot ."

Um? !

An Sen raised his head alertly, and looked at the house in front of him suspiciously: "You didn't write anything inappropriate for children or ... particularly strange, right?"

"Of course not! I said it, I just found some inspiration from the relationship between the two of you to add some drama to the story, that's all." Draco waved his hand to reassure Anson:

"By the way, Lisa's image in the story is a very spiritual little boy who is an assistant to the great detective Yasen, and can often find details that he can't detect... If you want to know."

"Did Lisa give you the inspiration?" Anson was a little curious.

"No, it's mainly for sales - usually as long as you have children, it's easier to be popular with female readers; then I don't know why, but I have a lot of female readers."

Draco said truthfully.

Anson Bach: "...continue."

"After that, I came into contact with some old **** groups in Clovis City. These organizations that once lurked in the dark side of the capital have developed into gangs that control a certain area in recent years."

Draco took a few sips of the already cold coffee, and the cold drink refreshed him:

"They saw an opportunity in the current chaos in Clovis City. Many people began to actively contact the nobles with the background of the old gods in the inner city, trying to usurp the benefits from the demise of the Guards."

"At first they planned to keep the Guards, so that it wouldn't disrupt the chaos in the outer city, but soon they realised that wouldn't work."

"It's not just the outer city, the current guards can't even guarantee the security of the inner city; more importantly, the supporters of the old gods are the traditional aristocrats who rely on the land to survive. In Clovis City, their power is stronger than The nobles who own factories are weak."

"They turned to seek compromise, but were unwilling to give up so; so they planned to take the risk and set off a riot in Clovis City to overthrow the rule of the Austeria family."

"Overthrow the royal family?"

Anson was stunned for a moment, and the "Old Pocket Watch" said the same thing at the dining table before, but he just took it as a means for the nobles in the inner city to coax these old gods gangsters:

"why?!"

"Because only in this way can the Privy Council be united... or acquiesce." Draco, who put down the coffee cup, smiled and said in a story-like tone:

"In the political system of the Kingdom of Clovis, the army is loyal to the king, and the king shares the rights with the most important nobles in the kingdom through the Privy Council."

"The deputies who support the old gods have no way of confronting the deputies who want to abolish the Guards. They can only target the royal family and weaken the royal family through riots, so as to increase the power of the Privy Council."

"Their wishful thinking is that as long as the Public Administration Act has not been passed, the Guard will remain the king's private army, and when the riot occurs, in order to force the King to surrender the Guard, the majority of the Privy Council I will choose to sit on the sidelines and let the riots sweep through the entire capital."

"And when the riots are over, as the manipulators behind it all, these people will have the greatest benefit: the new Guards will be in their pockets."

"As for what kind of tragedies will happen in this, or whether the riots can actually overthrow the royal family, they don't care, because the riots themselves are just threats to force the royal family to hand over power - they don't really want to overthrow Oster. Leah family."

It turns out that it is no wonder that the Guards dared to provoke all kinds of provocations in the inner city, and even allowed the thugs to appear in St. Isaac's College... Anson nodded thoughtfully:

"Then what are you going to do? If they really succeed, the final result is still not what you want, or even worse."

"really."

Draco, who was pursing his lips, looked playful and winked at Anson: "But only if they can really succeed."

"What's the meaning?"

"It means that these noble masters, the old gods gangsters in the outer city, including Archbishop Luther Franz himself - these 'big men' who have tried to use or ignore the outer city, they are too ignorant of what they see in their eyes' The mob' took it seriously."

Draco sighed heavily and said in a very calm tone:

"They don't know how many ordinary people living in poverty have lost their jobs after a long war, they don't know how many workers are being squeezed in factories day and night until they are like dead people, they don't know In the winter that has not yet passed, how many families living in slums and shantytowns are no longer in this world."

"Outside of Clovis, more and more tenants can't bear the rent and are displaced by starvation~www.wuxiaspot.com~ How many peasants have been robbed of their land and become homeless; Came to Clovis City, looking for hope of survival, but all they found was a deeper darkness."

"The guards and the nobles of the old gods thought they could control these 'mobs', while the archbishop and others thought that as long as a few spellcaster gangs were eradicated, the city of Clovis could be restored to peace."

"Frankly, I very much hope that the world they 'think' is real, but that's not true - those homeless people who have lost their jobs, their land and their families, they are by no means an existence that can be easily obliterated and eliminated. "

"Their anger has already been ignited by the gangsters of the Old God faction who instigated them; the guards...will be wiped out by the thugs they think they can easily wipe out."

In the middle of the night when the wind was howling, Draco's plain words dissipated in the cold rain.

Anson suddenly began to sit still.

"These are what I did, heard, and saw after I came to Clovis City, I told you all." Draco Wilts breathed a sigh of relief:

"Next, I'm going to tell you why I have to see you tonight."
