Chapter 450: The King's Mind I
But what Cecil didn't expect was that when the guards told the king about his return to Isara, it didn't take long for the guards to come to the gate of the palace and greet Cecil directly: "Count Augustine, His Majesty will summon you immediately. So saying, the guards quickly led Cecil and Anne into the palace. The three of them came all the way to the side hall of the palace. King Rex had to do this, Cecil himself was very surprised, he didn't expect the other party to pay so much attention to him. Cecil originally thought that he would come to the side hall and wait for the king to meet him immediately after the meeting, but when Cecil arrived at the side hall, he found that the king was already waiting for him in the side hall, and it turned out that the king knew that he had come to end the discussion with the important ministers and came to the side hall to wait for him, which made Cecil even more surprised. Even if it is to express the importance of himself, the king has really gone too far.
The king was very attentive when he saw Cecil, yes, it can almost be used to describe the king's attitude when he saw Cecil this time, it should have been Cecil and Anne to meet the king, but the two of them walked into the side hall, the king walked over directly and took the hands of the two of them and asked for warmth, as if he was his own brother who had a different artistic conception, of course, even for his own biological brother, the king's attitude has never been so good, and now he is not chasing his own brother all over the world? The end of his passion for Cecil simply made Cecil feel like he was away from life, and this was simply not the King Rex he imagined.
The king's attitude towards Cecil is naturally not difficult to imagine, since seeing Cecil's extraordinary power, any king will instinctively have a heart for Cecil's power, of course, there will also be a heart of jealousy, in fact, Rex and Efic saw the display of Cecil's power, I am afraid that even Cecil does not know that he has such a powerful power in his body. Prince Rex has a suspicion of Cecil himself, not because of any real misdeeds of Cecil, of course, but because Prince Rex has an instinctive suspicion of any power that may challenge him. But Prince Rex hadn't taken Cecil very seriously, a strong man who was only very good at his personal ability, so what? Is it possible to defeat thousands of armies alone? Therefore, although King Rex was suspicious of Cecil's power in the past, he still focused on using it, as long as Cecil was loyal to him, he could be regarded as an important minister.
But after this incident, the king's opinion has changed dramatically, and the overwhelming power of the Titan Lord has been lingering in King Rex's mind, if he leads the army of this kingdom, can he defeat this Titan Lord? The king deduced the war games for a long time afterwards, and found that it was difficult for him to win against this Titan Lord even if he led all the legendary powerhouses of the kingdom with the main knights of the kingdom, but the earl in front of him could do it, which simply made King Rex feel like a thorn in his back, very uncomfortable. In fact, the king did not know that Cecil could not use this power effectively and autonomously. The last time Cecil used this power, Cecil himself was confused, and he probably didn't know as much about the situation as King Rex.
Although he was deeply jealous in his heart, he did a better job than anyone else on the surface, especially the moment he saw Anne. Efik's eyes were blinded by an inexplicable spell. Not only that, but the mana in his whole body was also lost, and it can be said that Sarah's random blow made all the lifelong cultivation of this legendary mage come to naught, but it is no wonder that Master Efik spied on others first. Peeping into Kabrada's secrets is a heinous crime in Kabrada, and Sara is sparing him without taking his life by doing so. However, Efic soon realized that this energy was most likely the possession of the legendary Dragon Pulse Warlock, and Rexfee managed to find a portrait of Sara in the royal family's collection. Although the hair and personality are different, Anne and Sara look too similar, and now that King Rex has regarded Anne as Sara who blinded Efik's ** teacher, the shock and fear in his heart can be imagined.
But Cecil was ignorant of all this, and didn't even know that behind the king's smile was a deep fear of himself, and he suddenly felt flattered in the face of the past courtesies to him. I was still a little moved in my heart, Cecil and Anne were talking to King Rex, and the interaction between the two people was very tacit, and they were very close couples at first glance, Prince Rex was even tighter when he saw this situation, Cecil's strength was already terrifying, plus a dragon vein warlock, he himself was sealed in the far away place of the Emperor of the Sky, and now with the conclusion of the contract with the Orc Empire, the signs of peace between the two countries have become more and more serious, The province of Samarra under Cecil's possession will also become more and more important and prosperous, and can even become a center of trade between the three bordering countries, all of which cannot but make King Rex worried and anxious.
At that moment, King Rex pretended to be concerned and asked Cecil what problems he had encountered in Cabrada's trip, and Cecil was very grateful to the king and gave a rough report to the king about what he had seen and heard in Cabrada. Of course, the report was also extremely brief, and Cecil, the really confidential issue, was also extremely confidential. The king listened with great interest. Then King Rex brought up a topic that Cecil couldn't refuse, war.
Because King Rex's younger brother, Prince Lucas, fled to the Elok Empire, and with the support of the Elok Empire, he has ascended the throne in the imperial capital of the Elok Empire, although he is only a puppet, but his influence on the Sauroran Kingdom is still very huge, and many nobles and influential ministers who were originally cultivated by King Hareton are also secretly connected with him. King Rex has repeatedly sent envoys to the Elok Empire to ask them to hand over Prince Lucas, and cancel his title of king, the king of the Eloke Empire, Roland, promised well, but then he also went his own way, and did not put King Rex in his eyes at all, King Rex couldn't bear it anymore, and he had the idea of raising an army to fight in his heart.
