Chapter 196: Kane's Plan
"Lord Duke, here's today's schedule." In the city hall where the Duke of Kane was located, a faithful servant handed Kane a full plan to Kane at his desk.
"Put it here." Duke Kane didn't raise his head, still staring at the papers in his hand, and looked at the sky from time to time. The servant, who knew his master's temper, didn't take it too seriously, just did as he was told, then bowed lightly and exited the door.
Although this guy's brain is sometimes not very useful, at least the most basic ability to read people's eyes is still there - looking at the servant with his peripheral vision, Kane nodded with satisfaction. He has talent under him, and it doesn't matter if he lacks one or two, and someone will be able to fill it up soon anyway - on the contrary, it is rare to find someone who is smart but knows to keep his mouth shut.
Then he opened a letter again. It was one of the most proud works he had worked on over the years, and the information sent to him was not written by him, of course, but dictated by him, and then forwarded to him by his men. But this is not very important, just see if there is any information you want and noteworthy information in it.
"Hmm...... A little girl from the Intelligence Bureau? This is not surprising, Osborne that guy had expected it a long time ago, but he never let him catch any substantial evidence. The experiments on Lure's side are also coming to an end, and the royal family doesn't seem to have noticed anything abnormal, well, good job, Rogner's brother...... Be sure to find a way to get to know each other afterwards.
"Deal with the aftermath of the mine, and let them give up their suspicions completely, and then go to the imperial capital as planned...... Well, it's worthy of him, and it's not in vain for my hard work. Hehe, what will the people of the empire think when they see that they are protected by something like that?
"Hmm...... Wait a minute. It seems that the previous news was originally expected by Duke Kane. Thus he read the previous report almost unhurriedly, and from time to time he looked self-absorbed, apparently proud that his predictions and plans were completely accurate—he had forgotten that many of them had not been conceived by him at all, but that he had just happened to be the one who had the power to make the decisions.
"I see...... The special internship...... Was it deliberately arranged this way? Or ......" Kane pondered as he watched the last message - the message said that the mysterious man who had directly destroyed two guided train cannons by unknown means in the Garelia Fortress last month to prevent them from firing at Crossbell, the person who had been ordered to suppress but already knew his true identity - the supposedly close confidant of Olibat, Helliga Crywil, would come to his "Haidu" Ordis with this special internship.
As the first nobleman of the empire and the head of all nobles, the Duke of Kane originally did not bother to participate in the management of Tolz - although it was a prestigious school left by Emperor Drakells the Great, even the old rival Osborne did not show much interest in this school. Obviously, the main purpose of sending the "White Rabbit" there was to see if he could get some new information, and maybe he had even guessed that there was an undercover agent in the school. Of course, he guessed right, Kane thought with malice, but there was no evidence, and he wouldn't let him catch any evidence.
However, this time the situation is a bit special - the originally inconspicuous prince of Olibat actually hides such a hand. According to their own people, all they saw was a flash of bright light, and then two train cannons fell like puppets with broken strings at the bottom of the canyon - there was only one person there the whole time, without any additional weapons or help.
When he first heard the news, Kane's reaction was that it must be an "association" or a church behind it. The reason is very simple: no one in the world has such an ability, and it must be the omnipotent alliance leader in the mouth of the members of the "association", or the hidden hole card of the "Qiyao Church". Therefore, after learning the name and identity of the person responsible for the destruction of the train cannon, he almost impatiently sent a message of inquiry to his "association" allies, and he was shocked by the results.
It turned out that the association had already known about the existence of this person - as early as three years ago, in the "mutation" that affected the entire southern part of the empire, it was he and two other people who defeated the rampaging Arcana - in other words, it was a monster that could compete with the power of goddess relics like the "Seven Supreme Treasures". Even the Alliance Master seems to be quite jealous of his existence, because shortly after that, the Alliance Master has issued an order for all the Apostles not to provoke this person while carrying out their plans, for unknown reasons - in other words, either because he has some unknown connection to the Alliance Master, or because he is so powerful that even the Alliance Master has to be afraid of him. Unlike a strategist like Cassius, this is a real fear of pure "power".
Upon learning of this, Kane immediately launched a further investigation - it turned out that he and Olibart met during the Liber Mutation, and it was at that time that he recognized Olibat's political views. When he learned this, Kane Gong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: I see, it turned out that it was not some hole card left by the emperor. If this was just His Royal Highness's own chance encounter, rather than something that the emperor had designed in advance to take revenge on the nobles, he would not have had so much pressure.
So far, though, his main target should have been Prime Minister Osborne and his reformers, and as for Prince Olibart and his so-called "Third Force", they clearly don't have enough strength to confront him. And since the two don't have unshakable common interests, just like Chloe and the others will help themselves in killing the prime minister anyway, then they may not have the opportunity to break up this combination in the future.
Kane, who had planned like this, had never thought of such a possibility—he did not expect that the man who had scared himself into a cold sweat would come to his own territory recently, to be precise—and he looked at the date of the start of the internship on the letter—that is, today.
What's next? Is he really just here for an internship and for no other purpose? What should I do? Shut the door and don't go out, as if you didn't see it? Or is it a warm greeting and a way to dispel the other person's doubts?
Duke Kane, lost in deep thought. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.
