"Why... Why did you leave me..."Byron cried hoarsely, but no one dared to stop him, "what is the point of all this I have done... What's... Significance..."

The Academy Ghost sat cross-legged, his voice piercing the King's cries, "Do those things include secretly helping Prince Walter as a father, removing all obstacles and killing other heirs to the throne? It really doesn't seem to make sense at all now..."

Evan was the first to draw his weapon and rush towards the Academy Ghost, but Gadia also drew her long sword at the first time to block Evan's short knife. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Stop!!" King Byron roared, the Academy ghost didn't dodge, he seemed to know that he wasn't going to die here, "That's enough... There is no point in these things..."Byron picked up Walter's corpse a little, and pressed his fleshy face against the other's already cold cheek. The King's tears slid down Walter's skin and melted with the bloodstains, and as the man who killed Walter, Avi knew that if King Byron found out that he had killed Walter, he would not be able to live.

Bradley glared at the Academy Ghost, "What do you mean by what you just said?Who killed the other heirs to the throne?!"

"Yes..."

"It's me," Byron replied in a low voice while sobbing, "it's all my selfishness... They are all innocent, but I just want to leave all that the Kingdom of Sallins has to Walter... My favorite child... Why did it end up like this... Why..."

Bradley didn't think that Winlith's attack had anything to do with his father, it should never be something that a father could do! He didn't know that Amsoil had been attacked at Salt Harbor, but when Byron confessed it, Bradley felt a deep despair - his father wanted to kill the other heirs to the throne in order to protect the child he loved the most, a rare father who was so ruthless in the world.

Avi also began to understand that Rost had used a metaphor in the class at the Kestrel Academy to hint at some of the things about the struggle for the throne to all the students. At that time, only Syrannos saw through the hint and singled it out - "If there is a successor to choose from these five, and the choice is up to Rost, then the most effective thing for me is obviously to kill the others, so that Rost can only choose me." This is the method that Celenos thought of, but he didn't expect King Byron to choose this most cruel and ruthless method, even if the people to be eradicated are his own flesh and blood.

Evan had already withdrawn his dagger, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of haze, this loyal old minister should know what Byron had done, but instead of stopping Byron, he chose to watch Byron lose his mind. Avi glanced at Reeves standing on the high platform, that person has a lot to do with Celenos, could it be that he gave Byron advice?

"Father..."Bradley also squatted down, although Byron did not care and love him, but he always retained respect for Byron, "that is indeed a meaningless thing... If his father had said that he would make Walter's brother the prince, the sons would never have come back from the west, and the sons had never thought of competing with their brothers for the throne, but they we—" Bradley said what he meant from the truth, but he would not sit idly by with Amsol's ambitions.

Count Felemon also knelt on one knee, "The minister is guilty," this Walter's henchman has realized that the third prince is gone, "His Royal Highness Walter does want to become the prince, he is afraid of His Royal Highness Bradley, and his Highness Anso, I and other noble ministers should have dissuaded His Royal Highness Walter earlier..."

"What's the use of saying this now, no matter whose fault it is, there's no point in pursuing it," Bradley took out a handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to his father, "My son has already lost several relatives, and he doesn't want to lose anyone else. Father, please cheer up! Let the past pass, the future of the kingdom of Sahrins is still in your hands. ”

Avi and Eggsy were stunned, Bradley was now only one step away from the throne of the Kingdom of Salins! Byron was already physically and mentally exhausted, this king who had lost his mind actually sent people to hunt down Amsoil and Winlith, if those two members of the royal family unfortunately died, then the royal family of the Kingdom of Salins would only be Bradley and the eight-year-old Knightney, who could bear the responsibility in the future can be seen at a glance. All the tragedies and all the wrong choices have become the ladder for Bradley to ascend to the throne, maybe this is the true destiny, not the fate that can be changed by man.

Feremon was the first to stand up in support of Bradley, "Your Highness Bradley, the command of the armies inside and outside the city will be in your hands, and I and those nobles who originally supported Prince Walter are the same, we all want to see the Kingdom of Sallins prosperous and strong, for the future of the kingdom, please join hands with us and those border nobles!" Feremon seemed to have completely forgotten who he was before entering the palace, but he did have the confidence to do so, after all, the armies inside and outside the city were nobles from other parts of the Kingdom of Salins, and since they had the ability to support one prince, they also had the ability to support the other. Fremont is well aware that the matter between Byron and Bradley is not over, and he is a key player, and it is a good time for him to choose a side again.

Byron's sobs had become quieter, and he slowly stood up, walked over to a member of the new Knights of the Iron Wall, and looked at the sleeping Knightney, who Avi remembered that Princess Knightney had witnessed kill Walter! No matter how much Prince Bradley tried to protect Avi, he could not escape King Byron's wrath.

"Father, son..."

"But I also want to tell you one thing, if I don't say it, maybe no one will know," said the House Ghost in an unpleasant tone, "it wasn't Heck who killed Walter, it was someone there." ”

The situation that had already eased up a little was once again intensified by the words of the academy ghost!Byron's eyes suddenly widened, "Who is it!?"

"Yes..."

"It's me!" The stone axe stood up at this critical moment, and Avi, whose feet were trembling slightly, looked at the stone axe in surprise, did the other party want to bear all the charges in his place?

Byron immediately picked up the sword that had fallen to the ground and rushed at the stone axe behind Eggsy with the sword! But Byron did not stop, but shouted, "Get out of the way!"

I saw that Byron, who was obese, did not hesitate at all, and directly raised his long sword with both hands and slashed in the direction of Bradley, and Bradley also chose not to dodge because of the guilt of Walter in his heart. Suddenly, a figure rushed out from behind Bradley, along with a white lion sword, the tip of which was pointed directly at King Byron's abdomen, and he had been stabbed by the white lion sword before Byron swung the sword.

"Your Majesty!" both Evan and Reeves rushed over, but Byron, who had been stabbed, fell to the ground first. And the person who suddenly rushed out was none other than Fenrir who had infiltrated Feremont's guards!

Bradley immediately knocked out Fenrir's sword, and several guards immediately grabbed Fenrir. It's just that Fenrir has closed his eyes contentedly at this time, because he has done what Cowton and some of his subordinates want to do, and it is even necessary to do.

The sudden turn of events was overwhelming for everyone present, and neither Gadia nor Fremont, who realized that the imperial physician must be summoned immediately, did not do so, knowing very well what it would mean if King Byron died as a result. Avi's reaction was slow, but when he did, Felisty's hand was already on his shoulder, telling him to be silent.

Bradley shouted loudly for the imperial doctor while supporting the bleeding Byron with Evan, but no matter how he shouted, the imperial doctor still could not appear in time, Byron also did not have much strength because of the extreme grief experienced, the ruthless father was still holding Walter's already cold palm, and he slowly looked away from Walter.

"Bradley... It's the father... Didn't give you what you deserved... Fair..."Byron's wound in the abdomen was oozing blood, and Evan's hands were already soaked in the king's blood, "It's... It's my father's selfishness... Everything that caused today... Don't blame ... Yours... Underling... They're just... In order to... Guarding you..."

"Father, don't talk about it, the imperial doctor is coming... Just hold on a little longer..."Bradley couldn't help but shed tears, he hadn't felt the tears coming out of his eyes for many years, he regretted it immensely, no matter how many stupid mistakes his father had made, how many slanders he had misheard, no matter how partial, no matter how much he hated himself, he was also his father, and he was also the one who gave birth to him, and his blood was thicker than water.

"I... No... Blame you... I know... The country... Should... It's up to you to inherit..."Byron raised his other hand and pointed in the direction of Princess Knightney, "You... Be sure... Protect well... Your sister... Evan and... Reeves: they're all... Rare talents... Abandon the suspicions... Use them well..."Byron's voice grew quieter, Fenrir's sword was lethal enough, even if it was a strong person, he might not be able to hold out until the doctor arrived.

"Father... Don't say it..."Bradley clenched Byron's raised hand, he had already lost a very important loved one on this night, and even Winlith and Amsey, who were supposed to be innocent and protected, had bad news, the eldest son of this resolute kingdom had long been on the verge of collapse.

"Evan... Your brother... And Demps... They're all... Innocent... I... I'm sorry—" Byron still couldn't finish expressing his inner apologies, and the king, who was regarded by countless people as stupid and cowardly, lost his heartbeat and died of exhaustion.

Avi and a few other sensual people couldn't hold back their tears, and Byron's deathbed words made everyone present realize that Byron was actually sensible in his heart - he was not a mediocre king, but he made the wrong choices, and his character determined those tragedies.

"Father... What should I do right?"
