In the easternmost part of the kingdom of Hori, further east of the Valley of the Broken Army, separated by a Crussad Gate, there used to be a very powerful empire. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

While the empire was still in existence, relations with the kingdom were tense. For reasons of religious conquest, the kingdom also fought quite a few wars with the empire. The Church wanted to spread their faith farther, and the Empire defended the Church for fear that the royal power would fall into the abyss of divine power.

More than a decade ago, the two countries were in constant friction. In response to this situation, the kingdom even carried out a large-scale popularization of war education. The previous "simulated war game" also came from this.

However, this confrontation did not last. One night eight years ago, a sudden change occurred, and the king of the empire died suddenly and violently. With it, the empire was thrown into chaos.

The king had three children: two princes and a princess. Soon, the two princes fought for the throne, and the empire was in turmoil. However, just as the two princes were fighting, the silent princess suddenly stood up and led her army to occupy a large area of territory in the west of the empire and set herself up as king.

For a time, the whole country was shocked. Seeing this, the two princes were not to be outdone, and each stationed troops in the south and north of the empire and established themselves as kings. Since then, the mighty empire has been divided into three, and it has never been as glorious as it once was.

The empire was divided into three states: Fredon, Ikor, and Carretus.

When he saw the line on the envelope, Benjamin's mind came up with the history that the system had made up for him.

His Majesty the King of Carretus......

If he remembers correctly, Carryste was the state established by the Grand Prince after he occupied the northern part of the empire. And His Majesty the King of Carretus can only say that the eldest prince who has suffered the most in the struggle for power.

Although the empire was divided into three, their attitude towards the church was quite consistent. Although the Church has been trying to infiltrate the Church in a gentle way over the years, the progress of the mission has been very slow because of the unusually resolute attitude towards the Church in the three kingdoms, especially the Ikor Ikor who was founded by the princess and borders the kingdom.

Therefore, it is not wrong to refer to these three countries as enemy countries.

With that in mind, he looked at the letter in his hand again.

A priest who was valued by the Church wrote letters to the king of the enemy country......

At that moment, Benjamin felt that he was in contact with a terrific conspiracy.

If this happens to someone else, they may be deep in thought, frowning, and even hesitant to open the envelope so as not to get involved. However, the letter fell into the hands of Benjamin......

He was excited.

Play so high, add him one!

Therefore, he opened the envelope with excitement.

I took out the letter and looked at it, and it was quite long. No matter how excited he was, he had to read what was written in the letter, so Benjamin could only take a deep breath, calm his mind, and begin to read the contents of the letter.

Although it was almost dusk, it was fortunately not dark, and he didn't look too sad to see.

It took about ten minutes or so for him to read the letter very carefully.

After reading it, he put down the letter and couldn't help but sigh, and the excitement he had just felt was gone.

Originally, he thought that the letter would show the pastor's tendency to betray the church, and his determination to surrender to the enemy, which of course made Benjamin, as a mage, feel schadenfreude. What he didn't expect, however, was that it was the king of Carretus who wanted to surrender.

Carretus is ready to throw herself into the arms of the church!

How did Benjamin see it?

Because most of the letter is about the details of the coronation ceremony. It tells how the pope will crown the king, and how the king should be loyal to God. The fact that it has been implemented to this point shows that the secret union between Carretus and the church has been going on for some time.

No matter which country it is put in, this is definitely breaking news.

It is said that a few months ago, Carretus hanged a priest who tried to preach in public as a sign of disdain for the Church. Unexpectedly, behind the scenes, they had already hooked up with the church.

This play is really well done.

Benjamin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It was explosive enough, but in the letter, the church wrote something even more explosive—their commitment to Carretus.

The letter stated that the Church would send an army against Ikor and Freden, and that if Carretus suddenly rebelled and defeated the other two kingdoms at that time, the Church would give the Great Prince the territories of both countries, so that he could reunite the empire and become a true king.

Sure enough, it's a big conspiracy.

Benjamin also learns why Carretus wanted to surrender to the church.

No matter what world it is, primogeniture has always been the mainstream, but as the eldest son of the old king of the empire, His Royal Highness the eldest prince did not get his wish. Benjamin didn't know what they were going to do, but the second son could compete with the eldest son for the throne, and the second son must have been more powerful than the first.

Having a powerful brother is enough for him. However, their sister is clearly more powerful. Able to quietly pull out an army, seize the opportunity, and occupy the largest territory of the empire, this princess's mind is definitely far above the two princes.

Being pressed on the head by his younger siblings, and being divided by them from the territory that originally belonged to him, and falling into such an embarrassing situation, it is no wonder that the eldest prince chose to bow to the church.

Obviously, this resentment is no longer something that ordinary people can estimate.

But......

Seriously, after reading the letter, Benjamin felt that the church was giving me just a blank check.

If the Church really sent troops and defeated two countries, would it be necessary to return the territory to the Grand Prince? Without the containment of the Church by those two countries, how long would Carretus be able to maintain his independence under the hands of the Church?

Moreover, looking at the current state of the church, do they really have the leisure to send troops to fight? Even if they want to send troops, they will have to wait for the church to deal with the nobles of the kingdom.

I guess that's going to be a long time later.

If the great prince had pinned all his hopes on the church, he would have been disappointed.

After reading the letter, Benjamin thought about it, but still tore the letter into pieces and buried it all. Seriously, this kind of state-to-state transaction is indeed not something he can participate in now. Even the slightest hint of knowing the inside story would make his situation very dangerous.

Nor was he prepared to remind the queen of Ikor and the king of Fredon. First of all, it's too risky to do so, and it's easy to expose yourself. Second, even if he had reminded him, what would he do? If he was a gentleman from another country, would people believe him? It would have been good if he had not been suspected of being a spy.

And, most troublesomely, the church soon discovered that the letters were missing. With such a big secret being revealed, there is no doubt that the church will definitely hunt him down at all costs, even the whole city is under martial law. That kind of energy is definitely much more attentive than looking for Michelle.

If he was a member of the church, he would never have allowed this kind of news to leak out.

Thinking about it this way, even if Benjie clearly believes that he has not revealed a flaw, he can't help but be a little frightened.

I seem to have really poked a big basket out!

Originally, he thought that the prison ruins were quite safe, but now, he suddenly felt a little bad again. What if someone from the church discovers the secret passage and follows it?

If they find out that the letter is missing, they will definitely start to search frantically, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not find the secret passage.

It's not a good place to stay for long!

Thinking like this, he immediately realized that something was wrong, got up, and quickly disposed of the traces he had left here. Then he hurried out of the prison site.
