Chapter 205: Augustus
Early in the morning, the sun hid in the thick clouds like a shy girl, and the whole weather did not seem to be very clear.
The top floor of the main building of the Dawes family mansion.
This is a grand room, the room is surrounded by many crystal vessels to reflect the whole room bright and clean, the floor and ceiling of the room are covered with a strange paint, continuously absorbing the spirit elements in the air, and emitting a glowing light, giving people a warm feeling.
On the walls around the room, there are murals with far-reaching artistic conceptions, or spirit beasts roaring in the mountains and forests, or strong people overlooking the mainland, or the mountain peaks are majestic, so that people don't feel deeply immersed in it when they see it.
Every mural here is made by the famous Danqing master in the mainland, the national hand, if it falls into the auction house, each one will be sold for a sky-high price, any mural for a family like the Todd family, is a treasure that can be encountered and cannot be found, will be treasured in the family treasury, and in the Dawes family, it is an ordinary work of art hanging on the wall.
In the middle of the room, there was an oblong mahogany table, and on either side of the long table, a group of old men were sitting there at the moment, and at the head of the round table was the current patriarch of the Dawes family, the father of Jason's mother Yulia, Rao, the first duke of the Cairo Empire.
A letter passed in front of all the old men, and finally fell into the hands of the Rao patriarch.
"All the elders have read this letter. At the end of the long table, a powerful middle-aged man sat there, his sharp gaze swept over the faces of everyone present, and finally landed on the face of Rao at the front, the same middle-aged man who had arrested Scola last night.
"Is this news really true?" Rao frowned, and after seeing the content of the letter, his eyes unconsciously revealed a trace of inexplicability, and then he said indifferently.
"Naturally true, I have tortured it, the man in black who broke into the family yesterday is the third elder of the Latigen family, the top family in the Orlando Kingdom, Scola, the reason why he sent the message is because Renault killed the Bastad patriarch of their family, hum......"
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man's eyes showed a strong glint of resentment, "Back then, because of Yulia's intercession, I relented for a while, and only abolished that guy's skills, and didn't kill that guy, so many years have passed, I thought that guy was dead a long time ago, but I didn't expect that guy not only didn't die, but also promoted to the seventh-order emperor spirit master, and that evil seed is actually still alive!"
The middle-aged man's eyes couldn't help but reveal an undisguised strong killing intent, which stirred wantonly in the room.
"Enough, Augustus, Yulia is also your sister, and the child is also your nephew by blood. Rao roared.
"Nephew, haha!" Augustus had a mocking smile on his face, "If it weren't for Yulia doing such a shameful thing back then, how could our family have fallen to this point in the Cairo Empire now, Father, you must know that if it weren't for that Renault, Father, you would be the father-in-law of His Majesty today, the national teacher of the Empire." β
"And I'm ......" Augustus' eyes showed a hint of resentment: "It's the marshal of the empire, and now? Haha, ridiculous! Father, I don't have a brother-in-law and nephew like that, so if Renault and Jason don't die, it will be an eternal shame for our family, and the two of them must die." β
"Augustus, eighteen years have passed since this incident, there is no need for this, is it?" said Rao.
"Is it necessary?" Augustus sketched a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "Father, although the events of the past, although they were not publicized, but after all, it was a shame for Your Majesty, if this matter is known to Your Majesty, what do you think Your Majesty will think of our Dawes family? I said Father, you don't still want to recognize that grandson, right? That's the evil seed of the family!"
"Augustus, I don't think Your Majesty will be so narrow-minded, so many years have passed, it's time to forget. Rao's gaze swept over the faces of all the old men present: "What do you elders think?" β
"What the patriarch said is that Augustus, this matter has long passed, and there is no need to make a big fuss about it, and everyone will know about it. The elders spoke out one after another.
If according to Augustus's meaning, the family really sent people to the Orlando Kingdom to kill Renault and Jason, although a small kingdom is nothing, but it is bound to be well-known on the mainland.
"Haha!" Augustus couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, the laughter was long and full of sarcasm.
"Presumptuous, Augustus, what are you laughing at?!" said an old man with a gray beard in a furious rage.
"Presumptuous?" Augustus stopped laughing, his eyes mocking over the faces of all present, and then coldly looked at the old man and shouted, "Confused!"
"I just want to ask you elders a question, what if Yulia found out about Renault and Jason?"
Suddenly, the faces of the elders who had been sitting there suddenly changed color, and Rao, who was sitting in the first place, couldn't help but twitch on his face.
"Yulia has become a disciple of that adult, if you let Yulia know, with Yulia's character, she will definitely find that Renault and Jason, you all know, that adult hates his disciple to have something to do with men, if he makes that adult angry, what kind of situation will our family face. β
"This ...... This ......" all the old men showed a hint of hesitation on their faces.
"Father, what do you say?" Augustus looked silently at Rao in front of him.
Rao had a hint of struggle in his eyes, hesitated for a while, and finally sighed.
"I don't care about this, do whatever you want!" Rao stood up, a tear welling up in his eyes, and his figure seemed to suddenly age a lot, and turned to leave the room.
"Elders, eighteen years ago, I failed to kill Renault and Jason, this time I will personally take the initiative to destroy the Todd family, this matter is still to be kept secret by the elders, and Yulia must not know. Augustus spoke up, a cruel smile on his lips.
"Augustus, you go this time, be careful not to make a big deal out of it, after all, the Kingdom of Orlando is protected by the Continental Treaty, you can kill that Renault, as for the royal family of the Kingdom of Orlando, remember that you must not kill at will, if you make a big fuss, no one will be able to protect you at that time!" an old man commanded.
These elders all knew that with Augustus's character, if he killed the red eye, he couldn't control anything, and with the strength of Augustus's eighth-order intermediate emperor spirit master, I am afraid it would be a devastating disaster for the entire Orlando Kingdom.
"Kingdom of Orlando?" Augustus's back gradually disappeared into the door of the room, and a cold snort of disdain was faintly heard in the distance.
"Then it depends on whether the king of the Orlando Kingdom knows each other or not, if he doesn't know each other, then it's no wonder I'm welcome!"
Early the next morning, Augustus, dressed in a strong suit, rode a white horse and left the county of Xuanyi and galloped towards the location of the Orlando Kingdom......
