Demps's wild laughter attracted all the jailers on this level, and Avi and the others couldn't squeeze out a smile like Demps, and the chaos of losing the king was not what they wanted.

"Many years ago, when I was a knight, I vowed to help the king of the kingdom of Sallins distinguish between right and wrong, and become a knight loyal to the king and the kingdom," Demps stopped laughing, and the two jailers walked away, "but the Father sent a foolish and ignorant king to the kingdom of Salins! Byron is the only son of the previous king, and I have been serving the Knights of the Snake Spear for many years when he was still in the moon, and now his ending confirms my original opinion, he will definitely be planted in the hands of women!" ”

Avi and Felisty were both taken aback, "Captain Demps, do you know that the young Queen Rosemund's power is already in the hands of Mallot?"

"I don't know, but that woman's ambition is written on her face, this kind of beautiful but femme fatale woman likes to stick to the brainless powerful the most, and Byron is the most brainless one. He didn't learn the lesson of the wild woman at the beginning, and even married a new queen in his old age, which is good, and the Heavenly Father will give him some retribution..."

Demps is obviously a follower of the Illuminati, and Avi is not sure who the "wild woman" he is talking about, but Prince Amsoil has always been ridiculed as an illegitimate child, so his mother is definitely not the aristocratic woman that Ming Media is marrying, and it is very likely that Demps is talking about the wild woman. If the rumors are true, then King Byron, who also believes in the Cult of Light, should indeed be punished for his disloyalty, but he did not expect that this punishment would affect the entire kingdom.

Joan sat cross-legged on the floor, propping his fist on his cheek, "Captain Demps, even if King Byron has failed some women, that shouldn't be a reason for you to hate him... You haven't told me why you escaped from Mallote with the Knights of the Snake Lance, because of the false accusations of the other noble ministers?"

"The person who most wants to eradicate the Knights of the Snake Lance and the Knights of the Iron Wall is none other than Byron himself. Demps's hands were outstretched, gripped the bars as if he were holding a greatsword, and his eyes looked like he wanted to slay the beast in front of him.

It was only when Demps continued to tell Joan about the past that Avi realized the wrongs suffered by the Knights of the Snake Spear and the Knights of the Iron Wall. As the two captains of the "Kingdom Twin Horsemen", they will not lose their mission because of the change of king, they have only one mission, and that is to protect the royal family in the capital.

At that time, the king of Byron had just taken over the throne of the "Thunderbolt King", and the power of the kingdom of Salins was at its peak after many years of recuperation, and there was no war or strife at home. Byron was quite old when he became king and wore the crown, and he was a completely different person from the "Thunderbolt King", who would only be close to the aristocratic ministers who knew how to flatter and did not say anything from their mouths. Military knight captains like Faulkner and Demps are not likable at all, although they are not disgusted by Byron, but Byron would rather leave important tasks in the hands of other people with average ability, even if the other party is just a Heck who is in charge of intelligence work, or Dugor, the head of the Kestrel Academy who is very bookish and has little practical ability, is more trusted than Demps.

Demps and Faulkner became "orphans" in Mallotne, and Faulkner's younger brother Evan spent all his rest time in the White Orphanage, where he spent his free time with the orphans, a situation that did not change until the two Knights were forced to disband. Such an imbalance made Demps and other pragmatic and upright ministers feel cold and disappointed, and many ministers who followed the "Thunderbolt King" to fight in all directions have returned to their hometowns. The "kingdom twins" who were despised because of the Knights' loss of power also became dispensable, especially in the extremely mild, sheep-like foreign policy of King Byron, and the kingdom of Sahlins, which was originally very military, began to undergo subtle changes. More people chose to do business instead of joining the army, choosing to learn the craft rather than learning swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and the knights whose mission was to protect the royal family also became idle soldiers who only appeared on the school grounds because King Byron never left the palace for half a step.

Both Demps and Faulkner could not accept such an ending, and they were not willing to leave the Snake Spear Knights and the Knights of the Iron Wall, who had already worked so hard to leave, but this was the way it was at that time, and the Kingdom of Sallins missed a good opportunity to expand its territory.

"It wasn't until later that King Byron was found to have had an illegitimate child, and the stain was magnified enough to be used to counterbalance Byron," Demps gradually let go of his hands, "Some ministers with ulterior motives united with the nobles of the queen's family, intending to weaken Byron's power and at the same time install ambitious young nobles in Mallot." Unexpectedly, the plan that should have gone smoothly was ruined by the Queen's sudden illness and death, and Heck, who was now also the Minister of Intelligence, quickly arrested all those involved, most of whom were members of the Queen's family. ”

Once again, Avi heard that there was nothing in the history books of the Kingdom of Salins, and that these sensitive pasts had never been written down on paper by the historians who recorded history, and perhaps they would remember them, but it was difficult for those who came after them to know the truth about the past.

"The late queen's family has been completely wiped out, most of those implicated have been punished, and Chief Demps, who is particularly close to Faulkner, has not been able to clear his name. Joan added.

"No, in fact, this matter has nothing to do with Faulkner, the Faulkner I know will never betray the royal family of Sahlins, and the reason why he was convicted of rebellion is because of what he said for those people. ”

"A word?" Avi was asking the question, and Felisty suddenly turned her head and looked at the dark prison passage.

"The kingdom is my home, no one can hurt it in front of me, and I will never allow anyone to lead this home to decline!" a deep voice came from behind Avi.

"You're here, I thought I wouldn't get a chance to see you again, Faulkner. Temples grinned and laughed. Avi and Joan both looked into the distance of the passage, and since there was no fire, they couldn't see Faulkner, the former head of the Knights of the Iron Wall, standing there. Instead, Felistie had turned back, as if she had seen Faulkner's face clearly.

"I didn't expect that a sentence from my heart would become the source of your scourge, Demps, you also know very well that the so-called rebellion has nothing to do with you, and you only ended up with the charge of 'accomplice' for me, and it feels very uncomfortable to be forced to fall into the grass, right?"

"Hahaha, what's so uncomfortable? I'm the one who fled Mallot, and you're here to lose your dignity, to protect your subordinates, to face the criticism of the waste and the trash, and yet to endure it all the time... No one can empathize with it. ”

Avi had leaned his body against the wall, and now the people standing on either side of him were the "Kingdom Twin Horsemen" of the Kingdom of Salins - two elderly former knight masters, two soldiers who were hostile to King Byron and misunderstood by the world.

"There is no need to talk about the past. ”

From this moment on, those wronged people and things will only remain in my stomach, and I will never mention a word until my bones rot!"

Faulkner was silent for a moment, "I came back to Mallote because of a man worthy of service, a man worthy of me getting back to riding a gun." ”

"Of course I know that if you are a good teacher and suddenly give up your peaceful life and leave your hometown, I know that you must be unwilling," Demps closed his eyes, the wrinkles and scars on his face were trembling slightly, "If you are unwilling, you have to find your way, let's say, which prince are you supporting?"

"Can you guess why I'm in prison?" Faulkner didn't answer Demps's question.

"Come and visit me? No, that's not your style. ”

"I'm here to let you go. ”

"Hahahaha, it's easy for me to get out of here, and besides, someone agreed with me that person will bring back the prosperity I want to see in front of me, so I don't need to leave here now, and when I can see that scene, I will naturally come out. ”

Joan wanted to interject and say something, but he held back, after all, it takes a lot of courage to interject in front of such a big person.

"Captain Faulkner!" Avi wanted to say when he heard "someone worthy of service", "Captain Faulkner, you are on Prince Bradley's side, right? If you can, I hope that both of you can support Prince Bradley and help him end this dispute as soon as possible!"

Avi never thought it would take much courage to speak in front of the big guys, his life at the Kestrel Academy was completely changed by King Byron's sudden illness, and his future was in the hands of the three princes and queens. If there's one thing Avi can do, it's to firmly choose someone he can trust and give him as much help as possible.

Neither Demps nor Faulkner expected anyone to interject, and Faulkner responded, "What's your name, kid?"

"My name is Avi and I'm a student of the Kestrel Academy. ”

"Do you agree with Prince Bradley, or are you Prince Bradley's subordinate?"

"I... Prince Bradley has been kind to me, and the eldest prince is a man of integrity, a man of great talent, and I would like to see him put things in order. ”

Demps laughed again, but he didn't say anything to Avi, but Felistie gently pulled Avi's sleeve as the red-haired girl looked in Faulkner's direction.

"Since you believe in Prince Bradley, then be firm in your beliefs, stay true to your heart, and have a clear direction to focus on... Today's younger generation is mostly confused and restless, they don't know what they want, but they turn a blind eye to their responsibilities and abandon them. ”

Temples laughed even louder when he looked up, and Demps was the only one present who knew who Faulkner was referring to by young people.

"He's gone," Felistie said, gesturing to the other side of the passage, "and those who walk lightly can hear softer footsteps." ”
