Law of the Devil

Someone not of this world?

This sentence surprised Du Wei - this almost touched the deepest and deepest secret in Du Wei's heart! In this world. Even his closest people, Vivienne and Qiao Qiao, don't know this secret!

And at this moment. In front of this guy who is both an enemy and a friend. But he seems to break it so easily...

"...are you surprised?

Du Wei, I have been thinking about this question for a long time. Since you emerged, you have been called the idiot master, the earl's foolish son, but then you created a series of things: the one you made in the Luolin Plain football game. airship. That firework called 'Goddess Forgiveness'. Then to the magic sharing spirit you created, the Magic Society. Imperial Military Academy. And your auction house in the imperial capital... All these are new things that have never been seen in this world.

sometimes. I'm really jealous of you.

I grew up. Just ask yourself smart. But in front of you. But I feel that I have no advantage at all. Sometimes I even think, if it were me, I would be you. I was born into the Rollins family. Can you create such a miracle like you?

good. you guy. Anyway, I'm dead now, so I'll let you be proud of it once--set it wrong, I, Chen: Augustine. I admit that I am not as good as you.

You are such a guy that I can't see through. You know what? Many times. I think people like you are really dangerous, if... If I am a cruel emperor. Then I would have killed you long ago. Haha! Are you surprised to see this sentence?

I admit. I did kill you—_in an occasional moment.

some days ago. I was even more shaken in the last game between the two of us. I think. You seem to have guessed that I was terminally ill. You will pretend to be confused, and I will pretend not to know, but this game is only you. Only then are you qualified to play with me tacitly.

I used to worry too. After I die, leaving a guy like you behind, my son must not be able to control you.

However, I weighed it over and over again, but still chose to believe in you.

you. Know why? I guess you must be wondering.

that time. You deliberately stayed in the imperial capital, put yourself under my blade, and you are also waiting to see my reaction, hehe. Are you always so confident? At that time. I really want to be in your face. Let me ask you a question: Are you so confident that I won't touch you?

However, after all, I still lost a chip to you, and you won the bet. I. I believe you,

Want to ask why? Let me tell you, there are two reasons.

The first reason, you will never guess it. Remember your first teacher? It was when you were young. The astrologer your father found for you was Rosiat.

That old guy taught you for over a year. In the end, I was scared away by you. I'm afraid you don't even remember the old man who was scared away by you at the beginning.

But. Later when we got to know each other. But I secretly sent someone to look for him, and from him, I quietly learned a lot about you.

Do you know why that old man was scared away by you?

It is because of your words: the over-concentration of imperial power is the root cause of corruption.

Oh, what a pity. Although your father, Earl Raymond, was smart, he was also confused at the time. In fact, what kind of idiot are you. You are simply a genius that even I am ashamed of.

Don't blame the old man, I sent someone to ask him something. He dare not say nothing.

I've often wondered in private, what's going on in a guy who can say such outrageous things?

Fortunately, it happened to be this one. Let me be completely relieved of you, because from what you said, you seem to have a dislike for the profession of emperor, and you don't even like imperial power. If you are allowed to be emperor. You are probably not willing to. So, I am very relieved.

You have no ambitions for the position of emperor. So. I don't have to doubt you.

You see, it's that simple, maybe even you often wonder why I trust you so much.

Du Wei, in fact... When I took office as Regent, I had a long-term plan. You and I are about the same age, we are both young. This empire, this continent, has many, many great things waiting for us to do! I even thought about it. You and I cooperate. Trust each other, then I have confidence, in my lifetime. Bring this empire back to its glory!

even. I once dreamed that I would be a king greater than the founding emperor Aragorn! I believe that with my intelligence and your help, the temple will be fine. The magic union is also good. Pope that old man. That old guy who is the chairman of the Magic Union. We can all have a good fight with them!

It just takes decades of work. I am confident that I will be able to sweep away all these obstacles! The two of us will join forces to create an unprecedented great dynasty! Establish a great cause that has never been seen before, and will never be seen in the future.

Hundreds of years ago, it was the ancestor of your Luo Lin family. Assisted my ancestors. Created the great cause of the Augustinian dynasty.

So hundreds of years later today, I originally believed. The two of us joined forces. Can do a hundred times better than the predecessors!

I even dream, to be able to in my lifetime. Put the thorn flower flag on the snow-capped mountains of the northwest grassland! Let the fleet of the empire cross the South Seas, I want to conquer all the land in fact. I want to turn Nanyang into a province of the empire. Set up a governor there, I want to reduce the power of the gods, and let those god sticks pray obediently. I want to interrupt the magic monopoly of the magic union. Let the brilliance of magical civilization illuminate the way forward for the empire...

I. There are still many dreams that have not come true!

It's a pity...God, but I don't give me time.

I hate! Really hate!!

Why don't you give me some more time! Why!!

Thirty years... no, twenty years! Even if it's only ten years!!"

The letter ends here. The handwriting on it began to become scribbled, and it was obvious that Prince Chen's mood became agitated when he wrote here. And this paragraph is on paper. There are spots of red blood.

I am afraid. When writing here. While excited and resentful, Chen vomited blood again.

The handwriting on the back became more and more scribbled. Obviously writing this, Prince Chen's physical strength is a bit exhausted.

"...It's a pity. I understand that these dreams are impossible to realize.

I have a son. But I deeply understand: It is absolutely impossible for him to inherit my dream. He can inherit the imperial power, but he cannot achieve these dreams. I can't learn it, Karina is my favorite child, but unfortunately, she is a girl. .

well. write here. Suddenly I remembered a few words you said when chatting with me once in a while: Heroes are short of breath.

Really short of breath.

Forget it, I still remember one time, you said to me after you were drunk: after I die. Let him be flooded!

Ha ha. you guy. It's so insane that I admire it.

I really want to be as free and easy as you, but unfortunately, I am a king!

Again. In the days before my death, I also wanted to drag you along with me! Hmph. Don't blame me for being cruel.

Don't deny it, and don't think I don't know, you tried to kill me too, right?

Ha ha!

On the day of the coup. On top of the city. You also once tried to kill me. But you didn't do anything afterwards.

Um. So we're even.

old friend. Yes, you are my friend, don't hate me. Everything I did before I died was for my descendants. For my empire, I think, you can understand me.

so. some things. I have wronged you.

Don't leave me in the division in Nulin Province in your heart. Others do not know. But I think you must understand what I mean. That division. In name, to supervise you. actually. I did it on purpose. In order to reassure the ministers of the imperial government and the opposition. Rest assured.

But you should understand, how can a mere division resist your private army of the Tulip family, if you really want to let you go. Then it is not a division. I will transfer half of the Wang Cheng Guards Corps.

It's just for show, you know. I know it tacitly.

these days. I quietly stole the set of general history of the mainland that you gave Karina back then, and looked at the notes you left behind. I can't see through you guy more and more.

Alas, I would even think so. If... I knew you a few years earlier. How nice would it be? If only I had known you a few years earlier. With the help of a miraculous guy like you, I don't have to hide my strength and bide my time. Waiting until the opportunity of the coup d'état. With your help, I would probably be able to bring down the eldest prince several years in advance and take power early. Wouldn't it be a few more years?

but. time. It is impossible to flow backwards.

well. I wrote far away again.

It seems that there are a lot of things to tell you, but unfortunately, I am too tired to write.

Okay, let's continue what we just said. Before I die, I choose to believe in you. Didn't move you. The first reason is that I have learned about your childhood remarks from your first teacher Rosiat. I believe you have no ambitions for imperial power.

And the second reason... Hehe, don't guess. You can't even guess the first one. The second you can't even guess.

The second reason... I still remember that day when I proclaimed you as the Grand Duke of Tulip in the imperial city during the coup d'état. Did I say something else?

You probably forgot, but I remember every word!

What I said at the time was: As long as I live, I will never let you down!

Yes, Du Wei. As long as I live. I will never let you down!!

Therefore, if any emperor in history met a powerful official like you, I am afraid that he would definitely try everything to kill you before he died, but I, I will not!

because. I live up to you!

Is it surprising? Is it very touching?

Hmph, everyone thinks that I Chen is a rational guy who is almost cold. I killed my own brother. I put my father under house arrest, and everyone thought I was the kind of person who was ruthless for power.

But, this time, I just don't!

Can't I get sentimental just once? Hahahahaha. Before I die, I want to be emotional once! Take a gamble, and I will bet on your heart, Du Wei!

People's hearts are the most unreliable, but I just bet on your heart, Du Wei!

You guys must be very moved right now.

Du Wei. I promise you. Live up to you. I. done!

By the time you read this letter, I will be dead, leaving the throne to my son. Leave the court magician to my daughter. As for you. I have no present left for you. But only one entrustment can be left. Kind of like a request from a dead old friend.

Du Wei. My empire, please help me protect it, please? Please!

That's all for the content of the letter, the last sentence. The handwriting is already very blurred, obviously when Chen wrote here. I was so exhausted that I couldn't even hold my pen.

With the letter in his hand, Du Wei was already in tears. But he didn't raise his hand to wipe it, and let his tears flow, but looked at the crystal coffin. Whispered: "You bastard! Die as soon as you die. You lied to me so many tears."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and shook it lightly, a gleam of fire appeared from his fingertips. The letter paper in his hand immediately burst into flames. After a while, it was reduced to ashes in the flames.

The fly ash scattered, and Du Wei stood in front of the coffin. He nodded towards the person inside, with an extremely solemn voice. Slowly speak one word at a time:

"Don't worry, my friend, your empire. I will protect it for you

Du Wei walked out of the mourning hall, and as soon as he came outside, he saw a small figure running towards him from a distance.

Princess Karina's hair was disheveled, her clothes were disheveled, and she even lost one of her shoes. Come from afar. The maid Lanlan behind her followed behind. She shouted again and again, but Karina didn't care, and rushed directly to Du Weide. He threw himself into Du Wei's arms and cried out, "Teacher!"

Du Wei sighed. He hugged the little princess and stood up, squatting down. Look into her eyes.

"Teacher, you are back." The little princess curled her lips and shed tears.

"Well, I'm back." Du Wei smiled lightly. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket. He wiped the tears off her face. Karina saw the tears in the corner of Du Wei's eyes. I couldn't help being a little surprised: "Teacher, you...you cried too?"

Du Wei shook his head. But he didn't wipe his tears. Suddenly he smiled, although the smile was flat. But faintly with a hint of determination.

"You don't understand, these aren't tears. It's... a man's promise!"

After deciding, he raised his head and glanced at the mourning hall not far away.

rest assured. Chen. I will protect your empire!.
