"Me?" Regner pointed to himself with some surprise, glancing at Number One, who was standing not far away. Regner had to admire the woman's acting skills, and now Number One really looked like a dutiful guard, standing motionless like a stone pillar, seemingly completely unconcerned about the conversation between Regner and Alexander.

But even if she didn't care, Regner was worried that the talking nobles standing around would hear something they shouldn't have heard. The whole venue is still in the entrance stage, so many nobles are still talking casually outside.

"Then let's go for a walk in the garden. Alexander was quick to react.

"What kind of business is it for two big men to take a walk...... Do you want to see the moon together?" Regner couldn't help but complain, but he still followed Alexander towards the sparsely populated garden. Of course, No. 1 naturally had to follow obediently.

"The war between the two empires is coming to an end. Alexander analyzed, "In my judgment, if the new barbarian forces in the north and the weapons of the dark elves can work as expected. Then I am confident that this long war will be ended before next winter comes. ”

Regner's heart moved slightly, because Alexander had just said that he had come to end the war. From this point of view, this guy's control over the military has indeed become more and more solid. At the same time, with Alexander's level of finesse, since he could say such things in front of Regner, it seems that he really did not regard himself as an outsider. This gave Regner a little more trust in Alexander.

"When the war is over, I will ask my father to marry Lisanna. Alexander did not forget to add this. He spread his hands and said, "Then it will probably be an idle prince in Melindel, or maybe go to the continent of Reims with Lisanna for a while." That's what I'm going to do. So, I want to ask, what do you want to do when the war is over?"

"......" Regner looked at Alexander, but did not answer immediately, he said, "I have a few questions to ask. First of all, to what extent will the so-called war end in your mouth? Will it go to the thousand-year-old capital?"

"It's much more than that. Alexander waved one of his index fingers, and he said with a smile: "The end in my mouth refers to the Stoke Empire, which completely does not exist. ”

"......" Regner glanced at Number One in the distance, and after making sure that the woman could not hear his conversation, Regner continued: "I have been to the thousand-year-old capital, and I can tell you unmistakably that the grandeur of that capital is beyond your imagination. With the current strength of the Empire, it is difficult to take that capital in a short period of time. ”

"Who said I'm going to take a siege?" Alexander smiled mysteriously, "War is not as simple as sending troops to kill each other, my friend. Even the two brothers will use all kinds of intrigues to sow discord when they are grabbing territory. War is a thing that will squeeze human intelligence, physical ability, dignity, and thinking to the limit. Because it is a gamble of life, under the threat of death, people will tap into any potential they have, whether it is good or bad. The weak are eliminated and die, and those who survive are no better. Because they're going to turn into a deformed monster that they might not even recognize...... Hey, don't look at me like that, although you often go to the heart of the enemy to carry out assassination missions, you rarely see the kind of scene where corpses are strewn all over the field, tens of thousands of stumps and blood are flying in the sky. If you see that every day, you'll know that what I'm saying is true. ”

"So you're deformed?" Regner joked, "Let a good girl pick up a sword and fight for herself, while she spends her days studying with a group of men how to kill another group of men?"

"Honestly, the war has changed me a lot, but I can guarantee that my change is definitely not the kind of ...... you say it is," Alexander sighed helplessly, and gave the answer with the same seriousness.

"Whatever you want. Regner shrugged his shoulders and said, "In this case, no matter what method you use, you have the means to capture the thousand-year-old capital." Right?"

"Yes, you can think so. Alexander admitted, but he added in his mind: If you speak of millennia, you only mean those buildings...... As for the people inside......

"I see. Regner nodded, he didn't doubt Alexander's words, he knew that the thing never said something uncertain.

Regner, Alexander, and Number One walked back into the garden, where only the two men and a woman pretending to be men were left.

"Then comes the second question. Ragner turned his head to stare into Alexander's eyes, and he asked directly in a deep voice, "Are you really going to be an idle prince next?"

"What do you say?" Alexander didn't pay much attention to Regner's sudden question, but he looked elsewhere, and seemed a little afraid to make eye contact with Regner.

"It's not. Regner affirmed: "If you really planned to do so, then you wouldn't be working so hard in the military." Don't tell me you're only doing this so that the empire can have peace forever, I don't believe it. ”

"......" Alexander did not answer, he just looked at the number one in the distance with a blank face, and no one could guess what was in his mind.

Regner didn't say anything either, he waited patiently, believing that Alexander would give himself a showdown in the end. Because Alexander himself understood that the military alone was not enough to contend with Alexander, Joffrey and Alfred. Regner also has two good cards in his hand, one is his own MI, and the other is the Second Academy of Magic that Annelot controls.

"Well, you win. Alexander was silent for a full ten minutes before continuing: "That's right, I don't want to be just an idle prince forever, I want to fight." ”

"I can help you. Regner said directly, since Alexander dared to be honest with him, then he naturally would not hide it anymore. It's just that he added: "But I have one condition." ”

"Say it. Alexander frowned, as if he had guessed something.

"Alfred, must die. A glint of hatred flashed in Regner's eyes, and he almost gritted his teeth and said, "I don't ask for any official position, title, money, or beautiful women, I don't care about the first three for me, and I have enough for the last one." ”

"Actually, you don't know. Alexander interrupted him: "I would be jealous of you when you say this." ”

"That's not the point. Regner was unusually serious at this time, and he said coldly: "I mean, those worldly things either I already have to the point of complete satisfaction, or I have no interest in them at all. So, you don't need to dig your mind to think about how to entrap me. The only way to get me ......"

"Is that the head of Lord Alfred?" Alexander replied with a sigh.

"That's right. Regner nodded: "Actually, if it's possible, I'm really like I'm going to sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion right now and kill that old immortal." ”

"Don't do that, Regner, the Empire needs him now, and doing so will keep you and those around you from moving forever. Alexander hurriedly persuaded.

"I understood that, so I didn't do it. Regner's tone was a little cold: "So, I choose a better way to get revenge." I'm going to completely destroy the Rollin family and make everything he has run in his life come to naught!"

"......" Alexander scratched his hair in distress, he looked at Regner with a bitter and hateful face, and then asked puzzledly: "I also feel very sorry for Mr. Kordack's matter, but is it really so?"

"As for it?" Regner sneered, staring into Alexander's eyes, then gritted his teeth and said, "I'm telling you, it's much more than the Boss being ruined. What he Alfred owes me is the life of a good man named Rondo, the abuse that Sister Vera has endured for months, and the struggle of the old man in Manhattan...... And...... The old man and his whole family ......"

"Old man?" Alexander was stunned, he knew all the people Regner had said before, but he didn't know who the last old man was.

"You don't need to know about it, and you don't care about it, but it's different for me. Regner waved his hand.

In fact, since Kordak was forced to leave the continent of Chino, Regner began to investigate Alfred. And in the process of investigating, he also accidentally discovered one thing. Alfred is not only the culprit who caused Cordak and Selenos to be forced to come to the Reims continent to make a living. is also the culprit behind the destruction of the kind old man who raised him for several years.

The old man used to be one of the arms suppliers of the Hawke Empire, but he had a disagreement with Alfred, who was once the Minister of War. In the end, Alfred killed the old man's family, and even his grandson, who had just completed a full moon, died.

The old man, who was lucky enough to escape, unexpectedly did not leave Melindel, he settled in the slums, and later picked up the baby Regner, who had been abandoned by some of his cruel parents. Then they live off begging and some cultural knowledge that the coolies didn't think was very useful.

When Regner learned about this, a fragment of his childhood memory was awakened. Only then did he realize why the old man was unwilling to say before he died: "I have been in Melindale for so long, and I still haven't waited for you to die?

"No, it won't. From that moment on, Regner said in his heart to the old man who raised him: "I will prove it to you." ”

And this incident also made Regner even more determined to bring down Alfred.
