Volume 3 The Vortex of Strife Chapter 263 The Four Horsemen of Ghosts (I)

"I'm not a coward!" Avi clenched his fists, and Celenos didn't seem to expect Avi to be angry, but he still looked lazy and unconcerned.

"Words are powerless, and you see I never discuss the throne with anyone else," Celenos leaned on the table, tilting his head sideways at the disgruntled Avi, "Why do you need Prince Bradley to do what you want to do for you?"

"I—" Avi's clenched fist loosened slightly, and Celenos's words made him unable to refute.

"Even if the eldest prince really chooses to help rehabilitate those who have been wronged, he is not really for those people, he is just for the benefit of the future. There are some things that we have to do with our own hands, rather than putting our hopes on others and expecting others to save us, expecting others to change all that. After saying that, Cyranos quietly watched Avi's reaction, Avi didn't turn his head, and he didn't notice that the teacher who was teaching had entered the classroom, and all the students took out their textbooks and prepared for class.

After a long silence, Avi whispered, "I don't believe that Mr. Rost is a traitor..."

"Then use your own hands to find out the truth, just as my investigation into the aftermath of the White Orphanage revealed that Prince Bradley, whom you admire, also did something unseemly. ā€

"Prince Bradley, he..."

"This is the information that Prince Bradley sent his men to obtain, you can see for yourself. With that, Celenos threw out a notebook, and as soon as Avi opened it, he saw some names. Each name is followed by a detailed transcript of the conversation, apparently between someone and the owner of the name.

Avi could tell from a simple glance that it was a conversation between someone and an orphan, and all the conversations pointed to the same question - "Where did Adie and Michelle flee?"

"These conversations..."

"The Great Prince has sent his men to find the orphans who have been resettled, and those who have been sent out of Mallotte have been secretly investigated by the Great Prince, and Prince Bradley, whom you admire, is also very eager to find the two orphans who have escaped, the two orphans you have desperately protected. Don't ask me why I know, you should first think about why the eldest prince did this. ā€

From the transcripts of the conversations and the notes written on the side, Avi found that the person who spoke to the orphans was very eager to know the whereabouts of the artificial life weapon that was taken away by Ah Die, and the real intention of the interlocutor was to recover the weapon!

"Prince Bradley also wants to recover what was taken away..."

"That's right, and the person who asked the question obviously used a lot of deceptive language to get the truth out of the mouths of these orphans," Cyranos still pressed his face to the table, "I've always been concerned about the direction of the White Orphanage incident, because I also came from there, and you should know it." ā€

"What evidence is there that this is Prince Bradley's? it could be Archibald, the orphanage's director, or it could be some other prince's. ā€

"Because I stole it," Sylanes sat up, he stared intently at Avi, and even the teacher who was lecturing noticed Celenos's disobedience, "You should have found out that I was Prince Bradley's man, and I maintained a close relationship with his men." ā€

Avi instantly remembered that the mercenary named Owen had appeared in the Grand Prince's tent, and that Syrannos had walked side by side with the mercenary on the streets of Mallot. Avi didn't want to believe it, but what Cyranos said did have a basis, and the evidence he held in his hand showed that Prince Bradley wanted something out of the poor group of orphans.

Bradley was righteous about protecting the orphans, and he demanded that the orphans be transferred to other cities, and he said that he would severely punish the instigators behind the White Orphanage. But all this has turned out to be empty talk, and I really regret that I have given you the 'incriminating evidence' that records the details of the missing orphans, and asked you to pass it on to the head of the house, Dugol. You look at Mallotte now, who cares about the orphans who have disappeared, everyone is focused on the battle for the prince, every prince is the same, they are just using the people who trust them to serve their interests, maybe Bradley has been trying to win you over in order to get useful information from you, one of which is the whereabouts of Adie and Michelle. ā€

Celenos's words stabbed Avi's heart fiercely, and in the face of physical evidence and the evidence he thought of, Avi had to admit that the eldest prince did have other plans, and his purpose was very likely to be the artificial life weapon, but Avi, who was stimulated by words, did not find that there was a big loophole in Celenos's words.

"If I send this transcript of the conversation to Amsoil or Walter, they will definitely be able to make some kind of trouble and show the public Bradley's true face - protecting orphans is just a pretext, in fact, they want to get the results of the underground research institute and monopolize the secrets of the White Orphanage. ā€

Avi's already bad mood has become worse, he has always believed that Prince Bradley is a person who is genuinely good to him, but judging from Silanes's analysis, it is possible that the eldest prince wants to get something out of himself. Big-nosed Fan also reminded himself that Fenrir had paid gold coins in the "cat's nest" to get his own information, and Avi at that time could find a suitable reason for Fenrir, but now it seems that Fenrir must have been instructed by the eldest prince.

"What will you choose to do? ā€

Avi silently watched the deceived dialogue, those innocent orphans were still being used after escaping from the White Orphanage, and he was also on the way to follow Prince Bradley and forgot the person who was going to protect him to the death, until Felistie reminded himself that he remembered the faces of Millet and Adie...

Avi wasn't listening to the teacher's lecture at all, he couldn't hear the thunder outside the window, he closed the notebook and opened it again, the pages of dialogue and notes that were written down made Avi unable to let go, the Prince Bradley in his heart is fair and upright, and he will never use this kind of fraud to deceive the trust of the orphans!

"I'll give it to Prince Bradley with my own hands, and I'd like to hear his explanation face to face. ā€

"What if he snatched it and tore it up?"

"I..."

"This transcript of the conversation, combined with my testimony and the testimony of others, is enough to tarnish Prince Bradley's image greatly, and of course, I also have other unfavorable information about Prince Bradley, such as a mercenary group, and... Wen Lin's business. ā€

Avi was no longer surprised by what Silanos knew, the mysterious blue-haired senior was associated with all sorts of things in Mallotne, the White Orphanage, the Academy Ghost, the "Cat's Nest", Prince Bradley's formation, that stupid big man... If he really stands up and corrects what the eldest prince has done in private, it will affect the prince's choice.

"Or... You can burn it, the choice is yours anyway, I don't want to care so much anymore. Celenos let out a long yawn, and the cadets sitting not far away looked at him.

"The right to choose... In my hands?"

"That's right, I don't want to affect the ownership of the prince's throne, after all, every prince has things that don't seem to anyone, if you shake these things out, then the people of Mallotte will be very disappointed, this is not a good thing for the Kingdom of Salins, how can I say that I am also from the Kingdom of Salins, so... You understand, right?"

Avi turned his head back and continued to look at the notebook in which the conversation was recorded.

"No, I'll take it to Prince Bradley and ask him personally, and... The things you said don't mean people. Avi made a decision in his heart.

Silanos closed his eyes, and the two of them were silent for a long time, as if they were beginning to listen carefully, "Yes... Alright then, for the sake of you desperately protecting those orphans, this book will be yours," the blue-haired senior swept his hair with his hand, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "If you have time, look for me on the roof of the building before you leave school this afternoon." ā€

Avi was stunned, the bell for the end of class had already sounded, and Cyranos walked out of the classroom without saying a word. The semi-repeater often had to run back and forth between several school buildings because he also had to attend classes with senior students.

This "incriminating evidence" was carried by Avi in his arms, and he didn't want the people he admired to be tainted. Coming to the top of the building, Avi saw Celenos sitting on the edge of the roof at a glance, and despite the light rain, the other party raised his arm and waved his hand to let Avi sit next to him.

"The scenery here is very good, you can see a lot of places in Mallot, and you can even see the walls of the palace," Silaneus was looking into the distance, while Avi looked at the other tallest teaching building, and the figure of the ghost of the academy had once appeared on the teaching building tens of meters high, "What do you say a person with ability and a sense of justice should do?"

"Fairness and justice should be upheld!" Avi blurted out, "and... There is also the attempt to change those bad things, and the bad people are using their abilities to do bad things, so they are called bad people. ā€

"And who is it that maintains fairness and justice?"

Avi's face was a little itchy from the tiny raindrops, "That should be called... Messenger of Justice? No, no... In my impression, the knight who guards honor and upholds faith is the one who maintains fairness and justice, but now the knights of the mainland seem to have lost these. ā€

"An incompetent and stupid person is not worthy of being a knight, and neither is a person who does not have a righteous heart," a hearty voice came from behind Avi and Celenos, and as soon as Avi turned around, he saw a young man in a cadet uniform standing by the chimney on the roof, "Celenos, this person you brought looks like a stupid kind, this is the guy you mentioned before?"

Before Silanes could reply, another voice immediately interjected: "Today's weather is so bad, and Miss Ben is even going to come to you in person, don't you have a sense of pity and pity, and don't you have a little gentlemanly demeanor?" A woman began to complain as soon as she walked up to the top floor.

Cyranos stood up as soon as he stood up, "Let's start when Jaco comes, knights." ā€
