Chapter 12: Faithfulness
On the night after the rain, all the dark clouds disperse, leaving only thin clouds as an embellishment, the embellishment of the night sky.
Located in the middle of the city of Rosalgues, next to the Royal Palace, the garden of the lavish villa was used by the Imperial officials to entertain dignitaries.
The crystal chandelier gives the whole villa the light of day, mixed with the refreshing evening breeze after the rain, blowing the curtains on the second floor of the villa in the garden, and some of them walk through the gaps in the curtains into the room.
Augustus knelt on one knee in front of Su Liang and bowed his head.
The refreshing evening breeze swept through his body, and his already calm heart did not ripple any waves.
Not far away from him, Iya played with the dagger and looked at Augustus coldly.
The distance between Iyah and Augustus was the most appropriate distance in this room, whether it was a subordinate or other ceremonial person.
And this distance is the best distance for Iya to attack.
"So, because he is your most outstanding student, you preemptively injured him first, because you can't bear to see him killed? I said, what kind of existence am I in your eyes, I don't kill people casually. Not to mention this worthless killing. â
What kind of storage zĂ i
Everything is done seemingly casually, but it is all deliberate, in short, peculiar wisdom; It has a very strong force, an absolute power that even all the cadres together cannot defeat; Incredible creatures.
Augustus, who lowered his head, couldn't help but start thinking about what kind of existence Su Liang was.
"But it's also a little surprising, I didn't expect Augustus's disciple to be so good, and it seems that this country is so strong for no reason, whether it's you or Ize, or your disciple is very admirable in some aspects."
"King, what you have done today is because you can't get rid of the feelings in your heart for the people you knew in your previous life, and you have betrayed your trust in me, and I ask the king to punish you."
Augustus hung his head, his apology maintained from the time he returned from the dinner.
However, the atmosphere in the room at this moment was somewhat eased because Su Liang had been delaying the verdict.
"That's right, but I still think Augustus is not wrong with you, although you are not the same Parg as before, but if you can really throw away all the previous family affection or something, I will be very nerve-wracking, you must know that a guy who can even throw away family affection, I don't want him to stay by my side at all, besides, from the time I entered the city, didn't I just say it? The choice is entirely up to Augustus. And if Augustus had betrayed me, he would be dead by now. â
Augustus shuddered, looked up at the gray slime, and then glanced at Iya on the side.
At this moment, Iya had already put away the dagger and began to play with the decorations in the room.
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty will definitely make a choice that satisfies you."
"I don't need to thank you, besides, I didn't expect you to admit your mistake for such a trivial matter, but what is the Nine Swords of the Empire, although I heard you talk about the most powerful characters in this empire before, but I haven't heard you talk about the Nine Swords at all."
At Su Liang's signal, Augustus stood up and replied very respectfully: "The nine most outstanding people in the young generation of the empire will be given the name of the Nine Swords, and there are a total of seven military people among the current nine swords, including Igor, and each of them leads an army of the empire, and the other two are from the Magic Sect, and the other is a civilian official who is now in charge of a city. â
"I see, but isn't the princess you mentioned earlier in it?"
"Yes, because the princess is now the prime minister of the empire, so she is not counted in it."
"Is there anything else interesting about that?"
"Yes, in addition to the Nine Swords, there are also the names of the Seven Slashes and the Three Pillars, although the latter is not given by the king like the Nine Swords, but it is also only available to the most talented."
Looking at Su Liang's interested appearance, Augustus then said: "The so-called seven slashes are the seven most powerful warriors, these seven people have military people, nobles, commoners, and ordinary guards, because they are the titles of the commoners, so they are not as honorable as the nine swords, and the three pillars are the three pillars of the empire, namely the prime minister, the bloody duke, and the deceased god of war Parg." â
"What is the Bloody Duke?"
Su Haohao interjected curiously.
"It's a man named Murray, and he is also the dirtiest person in the empire, and some things that can't be solved in the open will make the bloody duke come forward, because the methods are very brutal and bloody, so he is called the bloody duke."
"I see, is that the head of the brocade guard and the like? No wonder it's called like that. â
"It's a very annoying person, and it's because of this person that Igor suddenly came to Duke Ize's mansion this time. Moreover, most of the slaves and prostitution clubs in the imperial capital were also under his banner. â
"I haven't touched him, but I really hate the way Augustus looks at him."
Augustus had no intention of hiding his disgust in front of Su Liang.
"Yes, because although the current empire has a prime minister, but also because of Murray, there are many miserable things hidden on the bright and glorious back."
"That's right, but if he does this little action tomorrow, he'll kill him."
"Yes."
"Speaking of which, you don't seem to have said anything about today's banquet."
"Because they are all things that are not worth mentioning, I have not reported them to you, but there is something I want to ask the king to answer."
"You can just say it."
"I also ask the king to allow me and His Excellency Yi Ya to show their strength at the right time, although they have not given an accurate answer now, but if they do not do something that makes them afraid and panic, I am afraid that they will delay the payment of this indemnity."
"Well, yes, and I was going to get Barre too. After all, that guy is very good at scaring people, and if you think about it, those demons in the east of the Oren Mountains have already been driven away. â
"It would be best if His Excellency Barre came, but today Duke Ize invited me to visit the battle in the Fighting Arena tomorrow, and asked the king to allow His Excellency Iya to participate."
When Yiya, who was originally bored on the side, heard this, she immediately raised her head to look at Su Liang, her red eyes full of anticipation and excitement.
"Yes, just do what you want, but the matter of the imperial reparation must be completed within two days."
"Yes! The retainers were determined to make the empire compromise and hand over the indemnity within two days. â
