Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 4. Morning of departure (2)

He left the room using the Byronic technique.

“Huh, it's amazing what they can do. I thought you said Clymus... If we had that ability, there wouldn't really be a country to deal with. ”

The king nods in admiration. At the same time, I began to think deeply about whether there was a way to learn that technique.

But he shrugged his shoulders for a moment.

“It's just something to think about after the war anyway. ”

You hear someone's voice outside the gates of the Grand Hall.

“Your Majesty, Earl Eigen requests your presence. ”

The king squinted, his eyes narrowed.

“Earl Eisen? ”

It was late at night. Why did Earl Eigen come to the palace at this hour? But I couldn't send him back.

“Listen. ”

As the king's permission falls, the door opens and a faint light enters through the door. Earl Eisen enters with a long shadow in front of him.

“I'm sorry to ask you to stay late. ”

On his knees and knees, the king said in a slightly gruesome voice.

“Done. If you're coming at a time like this, there must be a reason." Sit up. ”

Earl Eisen rises to his feet and sits in one of the Grand Hall's chambers and looks at the king. Then he took a few moments and said in a secret voice.

“Someone must have been there. ”

The king's eyes narrowed even further. I feel surprised that my eyes are shaking thinly. However, I tried to keep my composure and asked with a face that I couldn't understand.

“What's that supposed to mean? ”

“Did you not just speak to someone in this grand hall? ”

The king's eyes shake violently. Earl Eisenhower's voice was not conjecture, but certainty. He was told he had just spoken with the Borban here.

However, I can't nod my head. The king has no idea and turns his head.

“I don't know what you mean. So, what brings you here? ”

A strange smile was drawn on the mouth of Earl Eigen. He looks sharp, but he has something big planned.

When the king saw that, he had no choice but to examine Earl Eigen with a skeptical glance.

Earl Eigen's personality was originally sharp and dark, but he felt that it had gotten worse from one day to the next. Precisely since he succumbed to himself as a trigger at the hunting grounds.

It was a story that the attitude to follow the king's will was entirely unmatched. In other words, Earl Eisenhower had something else in him.

The king had already guessed that about Earl Eigen, but he was pretending not to. Earl Eigen was still quite a useful hound.

Suddenly, he was trying to reveal his secret, and he was acting like he was hiding something.

“I had an acolyte named Dobell. Do you remember?”

“I think I've seen it a few times. Why are you suddenly bringing that up? ”

“I should have told you about Dobell a long time ago, but I was watching because I wasn't sure, but now I think I can tell you. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“Dobell... was a Byron. ”

“What?! ”

The king could no longer hide his mind. It was because he was a Byron of the Borneon Peninsula who had just spoken with himself. Moreover, what Dobell looked like was clearly not a Byron.

Earl Eisenhower adds an explanation as if he had a hunch.

“You do realize that Byrons use strange techniques, right? ”

“That's right."

“Dobell was a man who could change the way those Byronites did their drinking. ”

“But I'm sure that Dobell has been guarding Earl Eisen for quite some time. ”

“People have changed without me knowing it. ”

“I see.”

Earl Eigen smiles more intensely toward the king who nods.

“Yes, and because of that, I also learned that you have a secret relationship with them. ”

“Umm…! ”

The king nods with a tearful voice.

Ever since Dobell told me he was a Byron, the king has also been confused. Earl Eisenhower has some sort of relationship with them.

“Then I learned one thing. They are using His Majesty to fulfill their purpose. ”

The king did not react well. Rather, he nodded as if it was natural.

“Does Lord Eisen think I'm working with them without knowing that much? ”

However, the story of Earl Eigen that followed was completely unexpected.

“I don't think you'd know that either. But I don't think you know that their real goal is to cut Bren into three pieces and throw it into the surrounding kingdoms. ”

“Well, what! ”

The king's face turned white. What's that supposed to mean? You're willing to share your kingdom with the surrounding kingdoms!

“Of course not. ”

“How did you know that? ”

“Dobell... caught him when he found out someone had changed. that we've learned through interrogation. Well, he didn't make it to the end. ”

The king looks suspiciously at Earl Eigen. When I suddenly came to say this, there were too many trivial corners that I believed immediately.

However, neither the alliance between themselves nor the group of Byrons nor the appearance of knowing them seemed to be a lie.

The king, having a moment's deliberation, asks for Earl Eigen.

“Then, why didn't he tell us about it? If you knew the kingdom was in danger, you would have told me right away. ”

“It's true... But it was hard for me to believe everything Dobell said back then. It was hard to believe that such a powerful organization had never shown itself, and we needed to confirm that you were working with them. ”

“So now it's confirmed? ”

“That's right.”

“How was it confirmed? ”

“I have received intelligence that the Kingdom of Stanen is secretly deploying royal troops to the north. ”

“Hmmm……. Do you have proof?"

Earl Eisenhowls with a stiff face, bringing out a few documents and reaching out to the king.

“This?”

“Here's the information I got separately. It's hard to say it exists on paper only... but I think it's enough evidence of a situation if you compare it to the report coming up from Fortress of Northern Flaen at the same time. ”

I repeated several times that the eyes of the king who was reading the documents grew larger and smaller.

At the gates on each side, there are regular reports of anomalies. Just in case.

However, some of the documents matched the reports coming up from Ploen Acid in the north. Not all of the reports were remembered by the king, but some of the memorabilia also appeared in Earl Eigen's documents.

However, it was nothing special in the report of Ploen acidity, but Earl Eigen's documents indicated that he was acting to conceal a covert military movement.

The king's thoughts gradually begin to resonate with Earl Eigen's words. Earl Eisenhower's words fit quite nicely.

Earl Eigen adds an explanation to the king looking at the documents with a firm look.

“They would have told you to prepare for the invasion of Delos and the Kingdom of Luo, then dig a trap and counterattack. ”

“Mmmm... ”

The king nods as he groans.

“But you wouldn't have told me about the Kingdom of Stanen. And the movement of the Stanen Kingdom was their real goal. If you deploy your troops to the two kingdoms of Delos and Luo, there won't be that many troops in the mainland of Bren. It was meant to be swallowed up after making it an empty house. ”

After that, I didn't have to listen.

The two kingdoms of Delos and Luo will return when we have summoned an army to the Kingdom of Delos and Luo to stop the invasion of the Kingdom of Stanen.

The king, who had been clearing his mind for a long time, asked with a difficult voice.

“Yes, what do you want Earl Eigen to do? ”

“We know their intentions and their movements. But they don't know you know that. We can get ahead of ourselves in this case, right? ”

“Let's check it out first. ”

“Very well. I'll leave you to it, then. ”

A cold smile comes to the face of Erl Eigen, or Erl Eigen, who has transformed himself through the great gates of the Grand Hall.

‘Circus, and Crohan. Now is the time to ask you for your sins. ’
