Chapter Eighty-Five: Shocking

Ole had been working hard to learn the lingua franca for some time, and although he couldn't write much, he was able to understand the content of the letter with the help of the people next to him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As the oldest person present, Ole sighed and broke the silence first: "Your Royal Highness, I am saddened by what happened to you, but please mourn!"

With Ole speaking, everyone persuaded to cheer up Casio.

Casio smiled reluctantly, "Don't worry, although my father's death has cut my heart, I will not be affected by grief." ”

Hearing Casio's words, everyone still glanced at Casio with some concern, but they didn't want to say anything more.

"Mortals die eventually, but my father died on the battlefield to protect the people of the Duchy of Dolan. He passed away with honor, and I am so proud of him!"

Casio said, standing up and raising his glass, and the others rose and raised their glasses.

"Cheers to the heroic deceased Grand Duke Kersma!"

After drinking a glass of wine, the accidental death of Grand Duke Kersma is discussed here even for the time being.

Next, Casio looked at the letter that had been put back in front of him, and said to everyone: "I am saddened by the loss of my father, but I also know that I am no longer alone, and I must always remain sober and rational and take my responsibility." So, what do you think of the contents of this letter?"

The death of Grand Duke Kersma did surprise everyone, but in fact, only the question of Casio was the real key point.

When Casio asked this question, everyone began to think, and it was obvious that since Casio asked this, then there must be a deep meaning.

However, Casio observed and found that the alchemists such as Agaret and Carl, perhaps because they had less contact with politics, although they were also thinking, they obviously missed the core point.

Others, on the other hand, are much better. Even Ron and Vanna were thoughtful.

In fact, Ron and Vanna are not knights from civilian backgrounds, they only came to Greenwater Town as Casio's personal knights because they are the youngest children in the family or their political performance is not as good as other brothers.

But after all, they are from aristocratic families, and they still have basic political consciousness.

Casio did not rush either, but quietly waited for their results.

The first to react was Tony, a young man who could be trained as a staff officer in Casio's heart.

"Your Royal Highness, can I ask you a few questions before we give our advice?" Tony didn't come from the royal capital after all, and obviously didn't know anything about some key things, so at this time, he wanted Casio to ask as a basis for reference.

Seeing Casio nodded, Tony also asked, "Your Royal Highness, has Grand Duke Kersma designated anyone as the heir?"

Casio shook his head, "At least until I came to Greenwater, I had never heard of my father appointing a sibling as an heir. ”

With a pensive look on his face, Tony continued, "So is it possible that one has been appointed during your absence?"

To Tony's strict logic, Casio nodded appreciatively.

"I don't think so. Because before his father set out on the expedition, he appointed the eldest sister Yalita as the representative of the internal affairs, and at the same time took the second brother Muriel to the expedition and handed him a part of the military power. ”

With Tony's political consciousness, he quickly understood the meaning of this, and of course, Agaret did not count on those with low consciousness.

After a moment's thought, Tony bowed to Casio: "Your Royal Highness, please forgive me for the abrupt question I asked next. Are you willing to obey the new king?"

Tony's question is very clever, he does not ask Casio who he thinks will be the new king, but asks him if he is willing to obey the new king, the two questions seem to be similar, but in fact they contain completely different meanings.

Hearing Tony's words, Master Dane frowned, feeling that this question was too straightforward.

Casio didn't get angry because of Tony's words, but smiled at the corner of his mouth, and replied calmly: "I, Casio Kersma, am also one of the legitimate heirs of the Duchy of Dolan!"

Although Casio did not answer Tony's question clearly, everyone present, including Agaret, understood the meaning of this sentence, and looked at Casio in disbelief one by one, but quickly suppressed this expression.

Tony's eyes flashed with faint excitement, and he actually asked directly: "Your Royal Highness, do you want to become the new king?"

This may seem like a bad question, but it's actually not a problem.

Grand Duke Kesma did not appoint an heir, so theoretically all his direct bloodlines could become the new heirs, and as for who succeeded in the end, it was up to each of them to succeed.

The civil strife in the country is actually caused by the lack of clarity of the heirs!

After Tony asked this sentence, everyone looked at Casio, some with complicated eyes, some with tangled eyes, and some with faint anticipation.

Who knew that Casio shook his head: "Tony, I have no intention of becoming the new king of the Duchy of Dolan!"

Casio's words made everyone wonder, and they didn't know what Casio meant by his unwillingness to obey the new king and his unwillingness to become the new king.

Glancing at the puzzled faces of the crowd, Casio explained, "I know you are very confused about my words, but in fact, this sentence is very easy to understand. ”

After a slight pause, Casio continued: "I do not agree with the entire upper nobility of the Duchy of Dolan, I want to create a country where the people live and work in peace and contentment, and more of them want to use the people as a tool to strengthen themselves or bring benefits. ”

"Therefore, I have no intention of leading them, and I am sure that they will not agree with my ideas!"

After Casio said this, the scene fell silent.

To be honest, Casio's current team, only Ron and Vanna really come from hereditary aristocratic families, that is, Dain's Bachelor, and he only obtained a trivial title of nobility through his own efforts.

Casio's words touched them far more convincingly than Casio's words about how I want to build a magnificent empire.

Moreover, what Casio did in Greenwater during this time, everyone saw it, and they also understood that Casio was different from all the lords they had seen.

Casio truly treats his lords as if they were his own children, which is fundamentally different from those lords who act like they are for the sake of merit.

After a long silence, Tony asked, "Then Your Royal Highness, if you are not willing to become the new king and let those nobles hinder the development of your ideas, then how do you use to realize your ideas?"

Casio smiled, stood up, and stretched out his finger in front of him: "My goal is to use Greenwater Town as the boundary, develop in the Secret Whisper Forest, and establish a new country!"

As soon as these words came out, the stone was shattered!
