Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 1. The New Dynasty (3)

Starting with a new dynasty in a new land, they rose to the throne on the basis of their strength as they expanded their strong military power, and the kings who had pushed their existing dynasties also took their place on the throne through war. That's why it was the Lycaen who best suited the leader we were talking about.

But when I said no, Derek didn't understand.

The explanation came from Lycaen's mouth again.

“So far, many dynasties have recurred on the continent. But most dynasties, or the history of the Yellow Dynasty, are only a year or two away. because the history of the country is much longer, but in it, the dynasty has changed many times. ”

“Yes, but it's inevitable. You know there are times when you get excited, and that's the way the world works, right? ”

“Yes, but it is the people who shed blood that must not be spilled every time the dynasty changes. ”

“He is also a force of necessity. ”

Like Derek said, it was inevitable. Riccianne also knows something. But that's not what Lycaen was going to say.

“Yes, it's a chore. Lord Poldenbine won't know that either. but I think I want to make sure that I don't spill any more blood that I don't have to waste any more time on. ”

“Hmm?"

Derek tilts his head, and Lycaen's gaze is on the Earl of Poldenbine.

“Isn't that right, Lord Poldenbine? ”

Earl Poldenbine nods his head to explain to Derek.

“I can't say I think this is the right answer, but I think the history of those dynasties is so short at the beginning of the dynasty. ”

“The beginning of the dynasty? ”

“Yes. Most dynasties rose to the throne using the power of the nobles, not by the power of the people. As soon as the nobles embrace the power and a new dynasty enters, the power will return to the nobles at the beginning of the dynasty. And that power can only lead to jealousy and conflict, and over time it can become corrupted in some way. I think the moment it hits the pole, the dynasty changes. ”

“Then the house you build is built by the people themselves? ”

Derek asks absurdly.

“No. The house will also be built by the nobles. ”

“Then it makes no difference. ”

“I'm talking about building a house. We don't want the nobles to take the big room and sit in it, but we want people to come and live in it. ”

“That means……. ”

“Yes, as soon as I build that house, I'm going to tap into the power of the nobles. Meanwhile, the new king does this for the people and instills in the people a sense that it is natural. ”

An unthinkable answer leaves Derek dumbfounded for a moment. Earl Poldenbine said he would take responsibility and prevent the transfer of power through nonpublic works. This means that he too will not receive the power.

“But after all, the nobles rule the lands. ”

“The problem is perception. When the perception that it's natural to do something for the people is hardened, it changes the consciousness. Even if people change their minds like that, it is hard for them to ignore the fact that they are lords. because a change in consciousness causes a change in behavior. ”

Derek doesn't seem to be able to speak for quite a while.

Now, Earl Poldenbine's idea was to break a long-standing, hardened common sense.

“That's why Sir Derek Prokers is the new owner of the house. Because even if I can't suppress the nobles who will rise to new heights of power, your son, Earl Procures, can suppress them. ”

But Derek was still skeptical.

“That's a great idea. But I don't have the strength to do that. ”

“If so, will you let it continue? Many people suffer the tyranny of the current king. Can you turn your back on them? ”

“Phew!”

A long sigh comes out of Derek's mouth. There was a heavy static in the receptacle.

‘Umm…. ’

She was sitting there, speechless, and listening to the conversation was quite shocked.

I thought it was natural to say nothing about the inversion because it was already such a gathering.

But something was wrong. Particularly strange were Lycaen and Caith.

In this situation, normal powerful men struggle to take the high ground on their own. But without hesitation, Caith recommends Derek be there. And of course, he told Lycaen that he was the second king.

Likewise for Riccianne. When he became king, he meant he would be the next king. Nevertheless, he tells the truth with a very thick expression. And he nods as if it was natural for him to be king. Moreover, the story of Earl Poldenbine is also astonishing.

Are these people crazy? ’

It wasn't any other story. It was a little crazy to think that we could do this when we were talking about rebellion and the throne.

But one thing was clear to Senna.

‘I think I'll have to do it no matter how much he hates it.... ’

In Senna's view, a little further away from the conversation, Derek is the best man for the moment.

After a moment of thought, Sena carefully breathes her breath as if she had made up her mind.

“Dad!"

The voice of Shana breaks the heavy static that landed in the reception room.

“What's the matter? ”

Derek asks, Senna cautiously approaches Earl Poldenvain.

“Do you mind if I come in for a moment? ”

“Of course, Senna Yang. ”

“Thank you."

With permission, Senna looks back at Derek.

“I think you should give it to me after your dad arrives. ”

“Cena, do you say that, too? ”

“What if I don't? Your son did what he had to do, so you have to fix it. ”

“Hmm? Well, what does that mean? ”

Derek looks baffled by a sudden story. Derek isn't the only one. Earl Lycaen, Caith, and Poldenbine are suddenly saying something.

“You have no idea how hard it is for your precious territory. ”

Earl Frost and Earl Gronst were now under royal command until a new lord was appointed. And the already insane king was squeezing the blood of the colonists in both lands.

Derek was also aware of this fact because he kept gathering news about Earl Frost throughout his lifetime on board. And every time I heard the news, Derek's troubles got worse. It was the territories that Derek loved after his family.

“I know. But……. ”

“That's what happened when you snuck out of the territory. But now he can't go back to the lord, and he can't get his territory back right away. ”

“That's right."

“So the only way I can make my father king is to make sure that the people of the land live well. In fact, it's not just the colonists of Earl Prokers now, it's the people of almost every region. ”

Derek's face is puzzled. I knew that Lycaen's decision was inevitable, but it was also always heavy. It was always Senna, so she was able to know and talk more about it than anyone else.

“Mmmm... ”

Towards Derek, who still looks troubled, Senna adds one last word.

“And it's better to keep all the people of the kingdom alive, since it's good enough to keep the people of Earl Procurus alive. All you have to do is sit down and talk. Then the brother who did the work will take care of it. ”

Lycaen gives you an unfair look, but he shrugs as if he can't help it.

And once again, the static settled.

"Ha!"

Earl Poldenbine sighed with surprised eyes and vomited a short sigh.

Sheena, who was just speaking to Derek, had a good understanding of herself or Rikkien. But Rudy, his son, was trapped in his thoughts and couldn't break up, so it was a comparison again.

‘Ha, what a waste to give Rudy. ’

Earl Poldenvain, as his father, gave a grumpy look, thinking absolutely absurd.

Then the second static broke.

“Phew, this is so unfair. ”

It was Derek.

“What do you mean, unfair?”

“Imagine if you had to take the throne to clean up his accident. Wouldn't it be unfair to Lord Poldenbine? ”

He said as if he was joking, but what he meant was that he would allow it.

“Haha, isn't that the way it's supposed to be? ”

“I see. ”

“Now that we're all set, it looks like we're moving on." ”

But Lycaen shakes his head.

“Not yet. ”

“Hmm?"

“We have to wait for the right moment. ”

“Time? For what? ”

“Circus, they have to move first. If we move first, they might get our backs. ”

“But maybe we'll get our asses kicked first? ”

But Lycaen shakes his head.

“Whatever it is, Circus' first objective is the Empire. So we have to wait for that. ”

“Mmmm... ”

Earl Poldenvain's anxious expression echoes with tears. Lycaen smiled strangely at the Earl.

“Don't worry, we'll have an accomplice in time. ”

“A facilitator? Who are you talking about? ”

“Emperor of the Empire. ”

“What, what? ”

“That's all you need to know for now. ”
