Chapter 41: Conversation After Dinner

Although everyone was seated at the table, the atmosphere was still obviously a little tense, as if they had not really trusted each other.

The atmosphere at the table was so awkward that Aunt Shanna was very unhappy: "Okay, what problems do you have, can't you wait until you finish this meal to solve it?"

To Morry's surprise, Viscount Lane actually saluted Aunt Shanna very respectfully: "I'm really sorry Aunt Shanna for disturbing you and Raul. ”

Aunt Shanna raised her head, stared at Viscount Lane and said, "Little Lane, you, like your father, are always self-righteous. ”

As he spoke, he pointed at Murray and said, "Tell you, Little Murray not only has Augustus shelter, but also your Aunt Shanna behind him." ”

Viscount Lane was really helpless, for so many years, as a staunch industrial party in the West, he had always hoped that there would be a dragon country man who could make his industrial production stronger and make more powerful weapons to realize the ambition in his heart.

But in any case, I didn't expect that a young man from the Dragon Kingdom appeared, but there were so many old guys involved behind him.

The reason why Viscount Lane became Shanna's aunt was because Shanna was the twin sister of Viscount Lane's mother.

Therefore, in terms of blood relationship, Uncle Raul is actually the uncle-in-law of Viscount Lane, so Viscount Lane does not dare to make a mistake in the small courtyard.

looked at Aunt Shanna, and then at Uncle Raul, and finally Viscount Ryan said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I understand, aunt, don't worry, I will never persecute this kid from the Dragon Kingdom." ”

Shanna seemed very satisfied when she heard this, and said to everyone with a smile, "Okay, come, let's eat first." ”

Viscount Ryan looked at Raul beside him, who obviously didn't mean to say anything, and had actually begun to bury his head in eating.

In the end, did he become the persona non grata?, but tonight he lost an anti-elemental space master.

Although he felt very unhappy in his heart, Viscount Lane knew very well at this time that he could not show it in front of Aunt Shanna.

forcibly suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and did not dare to break the atmosphere at the table, so he could only dine with everyone.

Throughout the dinner, Viscount Ryan was completely like an outsider, watching Aunt Shanna talk and eat affectionately with the Dragon Boy and the Witch.

After a waxy dinner, I finally heard Aunt Shanna say, "Well, I'm old, go to bed early, good night my children." ”

Finally, having let Aunt Shanna go, Viscount Lane cleared his throat and said, "Alright, now we can talk." ”

Murray said bluntly: "My conditions are very simple, if you are willing to help me find the dragon, I will help you solve your troubles, and even help you deal with those dragon people who have taken refuge in the royal family of your Sun Empire, how about it? ”

One sentence choked Viscount Lane, and he couldn't say a word for a while, and kept roaring in his heart: This is my territory, why are you so arrogant from the dragon country?

However, before Viscount Ryan could attack, the witch suddenly spoke: "Actually, my request is very simple, as long as I recognize the status of our witches. ”

Listening to the witch's words, Viscount Ryan almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood: You, why do you negotiate terms with yourself? You are just a witch.

However, in the end, he could only forcibly suppress the unhappiness in his heart, and responded with as calm words as possible: "The conditions of the two of you are not too harsh, but I must always see your methods, right?

Murray and Saria glanced at each other, and then Murray suddenly said, "Oh, I understand, Your Excellency the Viscount means, do we want to make a vote?"

"What is that?" asked Viscount Lane and Saria in surprise, almost in unison.

"Ahem, cough, cough" Uncle Raul coughed twice and said: "Vote for the name, that is, when the bandits join the gang, they must kill the enemy of the original bandits, and the head of the enemy will go to join the gang." ”

"Bandits?" Viscount Ryan and Saria were stunned again.

Viscount Ryan then raised his voice an octave: "Bandits, you, you use my Viscount's castle as a bandit's den?"

Murray spread his hands and said helplessly: "Your Excellency, you should be quiet, beware of the ears of the wall. ”

Viscount Ryan sat down angrily: "Boy of the Dragon Kingdom, I don't care about you, you have to come up with something that can convince me." ”

Murray pursed his lips and muttered, "Cut, isn't it just a vote?"

Without waiting for Viscount Ryan to attack, Murray asked directly: "Since this is the case, then who does His Excellency the Viscount want me to kill?"

"Ahem, cough, cough" Uncle Raul coughed violently again when he heard this, and he was already coughing red in an instant.

Murray turned his head to look over and asked strangely, "Uncle Raul, do you have a cold?" ”

Uncle Raul finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted angrily: "Stinky boy, you've grown your skills, haven't you?"

Viscount Ryan stretched out his hand to stop Raul, looked at Murray seriously and said, "Do you know what underground forces are there in my Viscount of Ryan?"

Murray pondered for a moment and replied, "Well, the Bad Boy Brotherhood, the Sunflower Choir, and the Tavern Association, these three should be the three major underground forces in the Viscount's domain, right? ”

Viscount Ryan didn't hide anything anymore, and said frankly: "Yes, I am the person behind the Bad Boy Brotherhood, so do you know who is behind the other two?"

Murray yawned and replied, "Is this still a guess? their outfits and methods have already been told to everyone, the Holy See and the City Hall." ”

Viscount Ryan continued to nod and said: "Yes, in fact, my original intention of creating the Bad Boy Brotherhood was to use the Bad Boy Brotherhood to restrain the other two gangsters, so as not to let the divine power and the imperial power work behind the scenes, and gradually encroach on my territory through the underground forces, but unfortunately, the results are not great, and the Bad Boy Brotherhood is still outside the core of the underground forces." ”

Hearing this, Murray suddenly came to his senses, stared at Viscount Lane and asked, "You mean, even if the Bad Boy Brotherhood has your support, there is no way to touch the real interests of the underground world?"

The viscount nodded: "Yes, the Sun Empire has been standing for so many years, in fact, the underground world has always existed. ”

It turned out that after the Sun Empire unified the western land, because the Holy See did not want the Sun Empire to be dominant, it used divine power to interfere with the imperial power.

As a result, the Sun Emperor had to compromise and divide the land of the Sun Empire among the lords.

Under the patronage of the Holy See, the lords who were granted fiefs had a high degree of autonomy in their own territories.

On the surface, the whole of the West belongs to the Solar Empire, but the possession of a fiefdom lord is actually only a superficial subjugation, and the respective territories are in a state of autonomy.

This matter involves the struggle between divine power and imperial power, so even if the Sun Emperor was extremely powerful and powerful, he did not dare to touch it easily.

Viscount Ryan said very seriously: "Later, a minister of the empire gave the third Sun Emperor an idea, that is, to secretly support the gangsters, through the control of the underground world, gradually encroach on the ruling power of the lords in the fiefdom, and after the pilot results are very good, the imperial family will support large and small gangsters to control the underground world in the lords' fiefdoms." ”
