Chapter 52: Martin Marcellus 2

After Martin left the small room, he summoned his cronies.

"Sean. Martin greeted, "Every time I see you, it gives me great peace of mind." ”

The man named Sean raised the corners of his mouth and saluted.

"It is my pleasure to serve you. Sean said.

"I'm sure you've got some good news for me, huh?"

"The unknown man now lives in the home of Vaolet. ”

"So has the news gotten out?" asked Martin.

"Yes, my lord. Sean said, "I'm sure he still has the dagger and poison you gave him." ”

"Well, there is no such thing as a failure. Martin lit his pipe and took a puff.

Sean didn't have that much confidence and questioned, "With all due respect, my lord. How do you know that Albert will poison Pendragon?"

Martin patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Dear Sean, do you believe that all people are born free?"

"Yes, my lord, I believe. ”

"Then you've made a big mistake. Martin said, "Liberty is a, she talks to you and gives you a bouquet, but she's just a doll in it." When people come out of their mother's womb, the moment they open their eyes, they are doomed to no longer be free. Family, childhood, society, every decision we make can be traced back to our experience. The freedom that the people of Tur shouted for is but a false shadow. ”

"Tours' bachelors will have different calibers, and some of the arguments are very convincing. ”

"Yes, otherwise no one would follow it. "They always think that man's free will is a divine thing, eternal freedom given by God," Martin said. But in fact, everything in the world has cause and effect, and everything happens only for cause and effect. Pendragon had sown the scourge and now only had to wait for the results. ”

"My lord, do you really think that Sam Pendragon will threaten you?" The Imperial Capital has undergone many changes, but the position of the Marcellus family has not been shaken, and Sean thinks that Lord Martin is making a big fuss.

"My faithful Sean, there is a worrying growth of power at any given time. Long before the Empire, the noble lords were an uncontrollable force, and at the beginning of the Empire, the local Church was a scourge that threatened the rule, and the politicians were ready to protest when the Holy See was finalized. Martin said, "Now it's these snake snakes that wander in the dark." These are the springs from which we draw strength, not the enemy. Sam Pendragon apparently didn't realize this, he broke the rules of the game, so I sold my favor and settled the matter for someone. ”
