Chapter 50: The Second Alliance

You know my father?" Ilea stopped.

"I don't know him, but I did hear something about him from the birds." The man in the cell said, "Something you should be interested in, the birds told me that his death was not an accident...... Oh, you already know it, you're smarter than a lot of people think."

The girl was noncommittal, but continued, "What have you heard about my father's death?"

"He was murdered, by someone he trusted."

"Sir Carroman, he is a dear friend of my father."

"Yes, but Sir Carroman was not the mastermind, and he was actually forced." The man in the cell struggled to his feet, the chains clanging behind him.

"Sir Carroman had only one son, Hugo, who was only sixteen years old this year, and that child was regarded as a treasure by him, but ...... Boys are always naughty at this age, and about a year ago he got into trouble in Rock Snow City and fell in love with a woman he shouldn't have been."

"Sir Caroman's only son, the future heir of Acorn Castle, there's nothing in the West that a girl can't pursue."

"Yes, but he was in love with a married woman, and the lady reciprocated his fervent love, and they secretly dated several times in private, and the locations of the dates became more and more daring. The last time was in the bedroom.

"But unfortunately, halfway through, the owner of the bedroom came back and they were arrested. Witnessing this heartbreaking scene made the lady's husband furious, and then sent Hugo an invitation to a duel.

"It's a pity that the future heir of Acorn Castle is not as good at swordsmanship as he is in the bed, and if the duel does go as planned, he will surely die.

"Sir Carroman, unwilling to see his only son die, pleaded with the lady's husband and offered to pay a large sum of money for his son's folly, but he refused without hesitation.

"Just when Sir Carroman was at his wit's end, a great man approached him and offered to help him settle the matter, but in return he had to do something for him."

"So he killed my father for that man." The female lord took a deep breath, "Your bird friends know a lot."

"They're everywhere, they can come and go anywhere in the world at will, and they won't arouse suspicion, after all, who would be wary of these little birds everywhere? No secret can be hidden from them."

The man in the cell smiled.

His words also made the girl shudder, and she suddenly felt that her surroundings had become unsafe.

There are also many birds in the Arias family's territory, and she actually saw a blue on the windowsill when she opened the window this morning.

She had just seen the crows outside the dungeon, and if they could all be spies, wouldn't her every move be watched, and there would be no privacy at all.

Fortunately, the next moment she heard Li Yu speak, "Don't be deceived by him, the birds have not evolved a language at all, let alone know Sir Carroman and his son, and he can't communicate with the birds, otherwise the trap we laid would have been discovered by him a long time ago, how could he and the black dragon fall into the net?"

"yes." Miss Rabbit suddenly realized, and the uneasiness of being spied on in her heart also dissipated.

Merlin was as reliable as ever.

The girl is glad now, fortunately, it was Li Yu who she picked up first.

Then she looked at the man in the cell again, and her eyes froze, "You know so well, it seems that you must know the person who murdered my father, and maybe you made a plan with him."

The man didn't seem to expect his lie to be exposed on the spot.

Moreover, the word evolution that Li Yu said before was also very new to him, and he couldn't help but look Li Yu up and down again.

"Your Excellency must be the prophet of the Shuangxiu Sect, there have been a lot of your deeds in the Western Realm recently, and I have admired the great name for a long time."

After saying that, he looked at the female lord again, "Okay, you caught me, that black dragon is indeed controlled by me, but I have nothing to do with your father's death."

Seeing the other party change his words so neatly, it made Ilea a little surprised.

Because once he admits his relationship with that black dragon, it is equivalent to cutting off the last trace of life, and the nobles of the Western Realm will definitely not let him go.

The man in the cell was unusually calm at this time, "I know that I am going to die this time, and in that case, I don't need to keep that person's secret anymore.

"I just want you to keep your promise and make my life a little more comfortable in the days leading up to my death."

"It depends on how valuable the information you provide." The girl said.

"The man who murdered your father was Huls, the second son of the Marquis of Cullen, ah, it seems that you already know about this, but don't worry, the next thing is the point...... Hulse is not dead.

"I can't kill my employer too." The man in the cell blinked, "After killing a number of lords who supported his brother one after another, Huls is also worried that someone will suspect him.

So he made an appointment with me to put on a show and let the black dragon "kill" him in front of thousands of people, so that he could clear his suspicion and get out of the matter for a while, but in fact the person who was killed was just a stand-in for him.

"You see, you're not the only ones who can play this trick."

"Where is he now?"

"I don't know." The man in the cell shrugged, "Huls is a very cautious person, especially when it comes to this kind of matter that involves his life, and he trusts even fewer people, I'm obviously not on that list, but I know what he's going to do next."

"He'll kill his father and his own brother, clear the last two obstacles before he becomes the king of the West, and then he'll reappear to drive out the black dragon and win the support of the entire West, of course, because of you, he obviously won't be able to complete the last step of his plan, but I don't think he'll give up on it."

"Why?"

"Like I said, my dragon and I are just pawns working for him, losing us, of course it's not what he wants to see, but it doesn't matter the big picture, he still has allies, very strong allies."

"Who?"

"Have you heard of the Second Son's Alliance? According to the tradition of the Brattis Continent, whether it is a territory, a family property or a title, it belongs to the eldest son, and the second son can get very little, many of them are not reconciled, but compared to their elder brother, their strength is too weak, so some people think why not concentrate the power of the big guys? That's where the Second Son League came from."
