"Everyone, welcome. ”

When he came to everyone, Sean's face was full of smiles.

It was as if the conversation on the second floor had just happened that had not happened.

"Your Highness is polite, your invitation, why don't we come?"

Some deep voices came.

Everyone looked at the person who spoke, and a faint awe flashed across their faces.

Duke of Poquanor!

The Grand Duke of the Empire is also a star-level magician powerhouse.

Duke Pourneau was short and lean, with a cold expression, both in size and personality, he looked diametrically opposed to the Duke of Hyperpoton next to him, but the two were very good friends.

"Haha. Sean smiled heartily: "Everyone doesn't have to be restrained, today is just to get together and chat." ”

Everyone laughed and responded, but their hearts were slandering.

Ghost believes!

Sean chatted happily with the two archdukes, and seemed to be in a good mood.

With the support of these two, the odds of victory instantly increased a lot, and the two not only had great prestige among the nobles, but also had an influence in the army, even though they had been out of the army for decades.

"Your Highness will hold a succession ceremony in a few days. ”

Duke Hyberton asked, raising his glass.

"Yes. Sean said.

"Hmm, the inheritance ceremony should be carried out as soon as possible, so that the situation in the empire can be stabilized, and there is no need to worry about any accidents on the side of the Akatsuki Empire. ”

Hyberton muttered.

"Hehe, I've already prepared it, so the Duke doesn't have to worry. Sean said confidently.

At the mention of the inheritance ceremony, a trace of fire flashed in the depths of Sean's eyes.

The inheritance ceremony, which is a ritual that every emperor of the Sirius Empire goes through before ascending to the throne, is said to be derived from the power of the Barbarian King, and the first inheritor is the founding emperor of the Sirius Empire, the legendary king Hervin Gafiri.

Since then, after the death of each emperor, the power has returned to the Pillars of Inheritance created by Hervin Gafiri, passed down from generation to generation, and only those with royal blood can carry that power.

Although the barrier between humans and gods cannot be broken through through inheritance, it will be enough for the recipient of the inheritance to jump directly to the peak of the legendary level and become the most powerful existence under the gods.

Therefore, the successive emperors of the Sirius Empire were the strongest in the empire, and in this way, the Gafiri family, which was established by the descendants of the legendary king Hervin Garfiri, that is, the royal family of the Sirius Empire, has been firmly continuing its rule.

After that, Sean Zhi also held a wine glass and talked to other nobles and big businessmen, if he wants to control the situation as soon as possible after ascending the throne, he must have the support of these people.

········

At the gate of the manor, two waiters were standing, and now there were no guests coming, so their standing posture was a little lazy.

"They were having fun inside, but we had to be cold outside. ”

A cold wind blew, and one of the waiters couldn't help but shiver and complained.

"What do you compare to others? I don't want to think about my identity, we just do our own work, and when the eldest prince ascends to the throne, maybe we can also mix up a half-official position in the future." Another waiter replied.

"What do you think, even if someone becomes an emperor, we are not the lowest servants?"

The man who spoke first scoffed.

The two chatted in the cold wind, passing the time of boredom.

In the manor, on a birch tree that is some years old, a dark black autumn bird stands quietly on the branches, and the figures of the two are reflected in the pupils.

After a while, the bird withdrew its gaze and spread its wings and flew into the hall.

·········

At the end of the party, Sean was also slightly tired, poured himself a glass of wine at an empty table, drank it in small sips, and rested.

At this time, suddenly a black black autumn fluttered its wings, flew in, and landed on the table.

Sean couldn't help but be stunned, looking at the black autumn bird that was not afraid to look at him.

Then he playfully picked up the bread next to it, tore a small piece and threw it at it.

"Your Highness, can I talk to you?"

The black-autumn bird on the table, which looked extremely ordinary, suddenly spoke.

Sean's pupils shrank suddenly, and his body tensed.

"Ah, please don't alarm the others, Your Highness, or I'll be very troubled. ”

Sean said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

"Your Highness will naturally be able to see me later. ”

The black bird's beak twitched, and the voice came out of it clearly.

"What do you want to do? I'd better be satisfied with what you're going to say, or ········."

Sean also calmed down at this time, although he didn't know what tricks were playing in the place, but he was a dignified man after all, and it was impossible for him to be bluffed so easily.

While speaking, Sean probed the black autumn bird in front of him with his mental power, but he didn't find a trace of magic energy fluctuations, and he was a little surprised in his heart.

"Hehe, Your Highness, I'm in the corridor next to you, and you can see me in a few steps. ”

As soon as the words fell, without waiting for Sean to react, the black autumn bird stretched its wings and flew in first.

Sean's expression moved, and he pretended to be indifferent, got up and entered the hallway.

In the middle of the hallway, sure enough, there was a person standing, with his back to Sean, who should be a man in shape, with a wooden cane in his hand.

The black bird was standing on the other's shoulder.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, the other party turned around, and a clown mask suddenly appeared in front of Sean's eyes.

"I beg your pardon for being rude, Your Highness. ”

Under the clown mask, a man's hoarse voice was heard.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

Sean snorted coldly, but he was not worried at all about the other party's bad intentions, now there are two star-level powerhouses in the hall, and if the other party dares to make a move, it will definitely be a dead end.

"Just trying to make a deal. I can tell His Highness some important news, and support His Highness on the throne to the best of my ability. ”

Sean's eyes narrowed slightly, he didn't expect the other party to tell him this.

"And what do you want? And what can you do to help me?"

"Hehe, in order to show my sincerity, I will first tell His Highness what I know about some of the news, and I believe His Highness will be interested. ”

The man's voice paused slightly, and his voice was meaningful.

"It's about the second prince. ”

Sean's face changed slightly.

"Oh, I'd like to hear it. ”

"Yes. ”

The clown-masked man chuckled and began to tell.

At first, Sean was a little unimpressed, but in the back, his face became more and more solemn.

"Corgi Rosen······"

Although he was surprised by the fact that the second prince secretly manipulated the development of multiple mage master mines, what shocked him the most was the guy named Corgi Rosen that the other party said.

If the other party really researched that kind of thing, and it was obtained by Zachary·······

Sean had cold sweat left on his forehead.

He doesn't think it's just a lie made up casually by the other party, because now that he knows the news, it's still very simple to verify the truth or falsehood, and the other party can't just lie to himself, so what's the point?

"What is your purpose?" Sean said in a deep voice, if the other party really killed Corgi Linson, it would indeed help him a lot.

"I want to know the secrets of the Barbarian King and the King of Legends, Hervin Gafiri. ”

Sean was instantly alert.

What does the other party want to do when they know this?

"It's just curiosity. ”

As if to know what Sean was thinking, the man in the clown mask added.

Sean groaned, even if the other party knew the truth, when the time came, he would ascend the throne.

Even if the other party's ill intentions are publicized, no one will believe it.

Because the truth is so shocking.

"Yes. ”

Sean said lightly.

"Thank Your Highness for your generosity, I will do my best to help you find out about the actions of the Second Prince, and if there is any news that will be passed on to you through the Black Autumn Bird. ”

The man chuckled harshly.

"Well, I wish you a happy cooperation. ”

The man turned around and limped away, and the crutches in the other party's hand turned out to be more than just a dress.

Gradually, the figure disappeared into the darkness, and it should have gone around the end of the corridor to the outside.

Sean watched his back disappear, then quickly turned and walked out of the corridor.
