A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 243. Chapter 243

“Those two are indeed Kanal’s royal knights.”

With the two knights, Garland and his party returned to the palace in the afternoon.

The high priest, who was dissatisfied because Gallan was suddenly spending the night outside, found him immediately after Gallan returned, but before he could even speak in the remonstrance, he was blocked by Gallan with this incident.

After meeting the Kanal knight named Moya in person, Sheemur confirmed the identity of the opponent.

“Four years ago, the crown prince of Canal got married. At that time, I went to congratulate Aaron Landis on behalf of Aaron Landis. I had met this person.”

Xiemuer said,

“At that time, he was with King Kanal, and he should be trusted by King Kanal.”

Gallan nodded.

“In other words, what they said about the prince of West Asia who was still alive and imprisoned by the teaching of all things is true.”

“This little prince of West Asia is really unlucky…”

Tarr, the little fat man on the side, couldn’t help but whispered.

“But the two knights were lucky. If it hadn’t happened to bump into Master Caijos and the others, they would probably die in the valley in the middle of the night.”

When Garlan heard Tal’s words, he suddenly remembered something and asked Kaijos strangely.

“Speaking of which, Kayjos, what did you do with Huimos in the woods so far at night?”

Kehos: “………………”

That is fighting to protect you.

Slap back the wolf’s paw that is reaching for you.

Of course, it is impossible to say such a thing in front of Gallan.

He hesitated not knowing how to answer.

Fortunately, the high priest, who was not interested in his personal affairs, spoke and relieved him, even though the high priest did not intend to do so.

“King Gallan, what are you going to do?”

Xiemuer put forward his opinion.

“The Canal royal family and the Aaron Landis royal family have always been in contact with each other, and the friendship between them has not been shallow throughout the ages. Although Canal is now subjugated, but since the last survivor of the Canal royal family has come to ask for help, I think we should Rescue the prince.”

“I think so too.”

The young king, who was distracted by Xiemur, nodded, and did not notice the guardian knight who was relieved.

“All things teach…”

Gallan said these three words.

His voice sounded very calm, but it was this calm tone that made people feel heart palpitations inexplicably, with a certain invisible sense of oppression.

The Sect of All Things used to be mainly active in Aaron Landis and Kanal. Since Kanal is relatively rich and stable, they chose Aaron Landis, which has been constantly warring, as the main area of activity.

And since Garlan took the throne, not only stabilized Aaron Landis, who had almost fallen into chaos, but also began to attack the Sect of All Things with the greatest strength after the stability.

As long as the Sect of All Things shows up anywhere, he ruthlessly sends an army directly to culminate and destroy all the altars.

King Gallan even issued a decree that made the Cult of All Things abhorrent – anyone who perceives the Cult of All Things and tells it to the government will receive a large reward if it is verified to be true. Even if they have sufficient abilities and qualified character after the inspection, they can be granted low-level official positions in their towns and townships.

The consequence of this is that the Sect of All Things is completely plunged into the vast sea of war among the people and loses in a mess.

If during King Kamos, who was also suppressing them, they just hid in Tibet, hiding in the gutter like mice and continuing to do things secretly, now King Garlan has been in power for more than a year, and they have almost been hiding. There is no place.

The several sacrificial sites that were destroyed were all secretly reported by the public.

This also makes it even more difficult for them to develop believers—because they themselves are not sure, if they contact the believers who want to develop today, will they turn their heads and sell them tomorrow.

Therefore, the Church of All Things has gradually disappeared in Aaron Landis recently.

However, Kanal, who was occupied by the Gastards and a large area in chaos, became their best breeding ground.

They gradually withdrew from Aaron Landis and began to become active in the chaotic area on the border between Canal and Aaron Landis.

Although Gallan had always wanted to uproot the cult of the Cult of All Things, according to the Continental Convention, as King Aaron Landis, he could not send an army into the land of Kanal.

But now, when the prince of Kanal asks him for help, he can justifiably send troops into Kanal.

………………

In a certain room of the palace, after speaking with the high priest who had been bound to several sides, Moya lay on the bed, but was unsure.

After all the hardships, they finally met the rumored young king and completed their mission.

However, his heart is still very heavy.

During the year in which he was imprisoned by the Church of All Things, he and other companions were trying hard to find opportunities to save the prince. In such a long period of time, some solutions have been found.

Just because those cultists guarded the princes of West Asia who were about the treasures extremely tight, they couldn’t find a chance at all.

Moreover, the prince of West Asia did not care about anything at all like the walking dead this year, and they were also helpless.

This time, after the prince of West Asia finally got up again, although the whole person was still gloomy and cold, he was much more sober and decisive than before.

He directly told Moya and others to leave him alone and run away by themselves.

Moya and the other knights naturally refused, but Prince West Asia said blankly that they could not rescue themselves at all. Instead of staying here wasting time, they might as well try to escape by themselves and then go to Aaron Landis’s. King Gallan asked for help.

Facts have proved that the prince of West Asia was right, they simply did not have the ability to escape with the prince.

Only the group of them escaped desperately by themselves, and they were all chased and killed by the followers of the Sect of All Things along the way, and their companions lost their lives one after another.

When they fled to the vicinity of the royal city, only the two of them were left.

If it weren’t for luck, he would meet those two powerful knights who are well-known in the world-he already knew that the one who was with the knight of the scorching sun that night was the black knight who was as famous as the knight of the scorching sun-both of them would disappear. Died silently in the valley, no one knew.

Moya still remembers.

Before they fled, the prince of West Asia said to himself.

The prince of West Asia said, don’t talk about the treasures of the Kanal royal family. If King Garlan is unwilling to help, forget it, and don’t care about his life or death.

As for these knights, whether they want to vote for another person or commit suicide and die for the country, whatever they want.

Moya still remembers the prince’s indifferent look and the emotionless tone when speaking.

Obviously he was still a child less than ten years old, but his eyes were gloomy, with a lifeless expression.

Thinking of the prince’s lifeless eyes that were like an abyss, Moya’s mood suddenly became heavy.

He hasn’t thought about it, or, should I say, he didn’t dare to think about it at all.

Even if people can be rescued, the prince’s heart… has been completely destroyed by hatred and pain.

Such a prince…what will it look like in the future…

…………

……………………

On that night, when the knight Moya was tossing and turning on the bed, on the other side, in the palace of Gallan, the roar of the high priest of Shamash had shaken the entire room.

“I disagree!”

Xie Mu’er stared at Garlan sternly, with a firm tone of voice, with no room for change.

“I would never agree with this.”

Gallan glanced at him.

“Xiemuer, I am only’telling’ you about this, not asking for your consent.”

Xie Muer said angrily: “As the leader of a country, how can you go to dangerous places in person?”

“It’s just a den of the Cult of All Things. It’s not even a battlefield. I don’t think it will be dangerous if you are accompanied by Kaihuos.”

“Even if you have him—”

“Xiemuer, either you help me prepare everything, or I find a chance to leave by myself.”

The young man sitting on the white jade terrace with knees bent slightly tilted his head, put one hand on his bent knee, and smiled at his high priest.

“Unless you can make sure, you can stare at me all the time so that I can’t sneak out.”

Xiemuer: “…”

His breath stuck in his throat forcibly, and the High Priest couldn’t get up and down.

He always felt that King Camos was headstrong enough to make him a headache.

Unexpectedly, Garlan, who became the king, was actually better than blue from the blue. From time to time, there were incidents of sneaking and disappearing that made him upset.

Anyway, King Camos was always afraid of him talking, so he could be honest and compromise, but now that he changed to Gallan, it became that he was often stuck by Gallan.

In the end, almost all the people who had no choice but to compromise were him.

Just like this time…

“……I see.”

Xie Muer took a deep breath and kept telling himself from the bottom of his heart.

Calm, must be calm, now in front of him is not Prince Garlan, but King Garlan.

As a priest of Shamash who obeyed the ritual laws, he could not be rude to the king.

Yes, it can’t.

After repeatedly admonishing him several times, the high priest finally suppressed his impulse to reprimand Garlan with full firepower.

“I will prepare everything for you.”

He said, “But, I also have a request.”

“what?”

“Except for Kayjos, please let His Excellency Huimos accompany you.”

Since Gallan could not dispel the idea of going personally, Sheemur could only ensure Gallan’s safety as much as possible under the premise of compromise, and squeezed the two strongest knights of Aaron Landis to Gal. Lan, let him take it away.

Gallan was startled.

If it was replaced before, he had already agreed.

but……

“Heymos just…no need, he still needs to sit in the king’s city. Just have Kaihuos to accompany me.”

Since that incident the day before yesterday, he felt embarrassed when he saw Hiemos, and always wanted to avoid him unconsciously.

“There is nothing more important than your safety. Even if the royal city is destroyed, as long as you are still, Aaron Landis will be as stable as Mount Tweeul.”

Xiemuer said, he watched Garlan calmly, not giving way.

“Please agree to my request.”

Garlan looked at him and nodded helplessly.

Kaihus, who was standing by, had not spoken all the time, but turned his head and glanced to one side.

Through the window, he could vaguely see the figure in black that had come here not long ago, and suddenly stood still far away in the courtyard.

He just looked at that figure and turned and left.

Turning his head, the blond knight’s eyes were slightly complicated.

………………

Because he planned to see whether the situation needed to mobilize the army when he arrived at the western border, Garlan secretly left the palace with only a team of knights, about a hundred people.

Not to mention that these elite knights are loyal and brave. The existence of Kayjos and Huimos on the left and right is enough to make this team terribly strong.

Gallan felt that with this luxurious configuration, even if he went to the Kanal territory under the control of the Gastards, he could return unharmed in the end.

Not to mention just solving a secret den of a cult.

Because the Moya knight was seriously injured, the young knight led the way.

These more than one hundred people avoided crowded places and traveled all the way to the west from remote places.

After rushing to the evening, Cyjos chose a flat land near the river and camped there.

Soon it was late at night, and the crescent moon was high in the sky.

The bonfire in the camp was burning, the fire light illuminates the night in this place, and the whole camp is also a little quieter.

Just as Gallan took off his cloak and was taking off his boots, someone suddenly opened the curtain of the camp and walked in.

He subconsciously raised his eyes and glanced, his eyes froze suddenly.

The familiar tall figure walked in, the warm yellow flames of the camp tent reflected on the handsome side of the man’s cheeks, and those golden red eyes fell on him as always.

Just one glance at each other, Garlan looked away uncomfortably.

He used to be accustomed to being watched so intently by Huimos since he was a child, and he didn’t think much. But since that day… I don’t know why, being looked at like this by Huimos, he feels a little weird…

Seeing Garland avoiding his gaze, Huimos pursed his lower lip and lowered his eyes.

He didn’t say anything, but after walking in, he began to take off his armor.

Gallan was taken aback.

“What are you doing undressing here—?”

The frightened teenager looked at each other vigilantly like a kitten with all his hair exploded.

“Xiemuer told me before leaving. When we go to bed at night, Kaijos and I must have one person by your side.” Huimos said lightly, “Kyjos is in charge of the night watch tonight, so I will come over. here.”

Garland: “…”

Xiemuer, can you not overprotect me like this?

Sitting on the cot with knees bent, Gallan didn’t know what to say for a while.

Because of the simplicity of the outfit, the camping tent is the smallest and lightest, with a small space, and can accommodate three or four people at most.

So he and Huimos are actually very close.

But both of them were silent, did not speak, and the atmosphere was somewhat depressed.

Gallan was a little confused.

In the past, he and Huimos often spent time alone, but at that time he had always chatted and laughed with Huimos casually, just like with Kaijos and others.

He has never felt as uncomfortable as he does now.

Gallan glanced at Hiemos secretly from the corner of his eye.

Huimos had already taken off his armor, and his body in a thin shirt was very fit in the light of the light, and the tight skin texture lines seemed to be sculpted.

He was sitting on another cot, with his eyes down, dark hair slanting down, half covering the corners of his narrow eyes.

His thin lips shimmered under the light.

The more you want to forget some memories, the more they will linger in your mind.

When he saw Heymos’ lips, the words Heymos said not long ago suddenly sounded in his mind.

…’Every late night dream…’…

Gallan took a deep breath, he was a little panicked.

Now, it is late at night.

It happened that he and Huimos were alone again.

Lonely and widowed.

This guy has a great desire for him again.

In case this guy is the same as last night, suddenly beastly…

calm down.

It’s camping now, everyone is here, Kaihuos is also there, and the thin layer of camp can’t stop any sound.

It’s impossible for Huimos to force him under this situation…

Gallan calmed herself down after repeatedly pacifying herself in her heart for a long time.

However–

Just as he relaxed, when he raised his eyes, he was shocked to find that Hiimos hadn’t known when he was standing in front of him.

At the same time, his right hand was reaching him.

His heart tightened.

Panicked.

Almost instinctively, Garlan raised his hand and slammed it, and opened Heimos’s hand towards him.

The crisp slap was especially loud in the quiet camp.

The camp was terribly quiet.

Huimos stared at his opened hand, staring at the red marks that had already appeared on the back of his hand.

A terrible shimmer flashed across the golden red eyes.
