Chapter Seventy-One: A Bloody Case Caused by a Boxed Lunch
"Repentance should not be.. Greedy.."
Seeing that the Eye Demon began to operate little by little according to the memories that he had memorized with his special abilities before, Duncan Victor, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Everything was going well, and he seemed to think that he had guessed everything, but he somewhat underestimated the young man's ability.
As for the mysterious fluctuations, they found that this is a very basic phenomenon, basic enough to ignore most magic and penetrate all kinds of magic shields, such penetration may not be able to cause harm to people, but leaking secrets is enough.
In a sense, for the Demon Pattern Shield, for the enchantment, it is like a nobleman bullying a commoner, but in the same way, it is very afraid of interference from itself, and it can be regarded as attacking its own shield with its own spear.
Therefore, he will be full of confidence and not afraid of what will be heard by the copper coin monitor.
It's a pity that the words of Stan Victor gave him a reminder, 'tell the other families as soon as possible', these words don't sound like a problem at first glance, but logically speaking, he doesn't need to add these words deliberately, and if he does, it is a little urging.
It's worth savoring.
As a result, Duncan Victor was able to make a bold assumption.
That is, this young man named Copper Coin has even surpassed the mastery of mysterious fluctuations, and his control over them has reached a certain arbitrary state, including those interference fluctuations themselves, which seem to be under his control.
In this way, it is estimated that except for the enchantment constructed by the Eye Demon based on his own bloodline, which can completely isolate everything, including mysterious fluctuations, everything before and after, including their conversation now, is probably under the control of this guy.
Even if he may not know that he and the others are involved in the rebellion, the mere fact of cooperating with the Eye Demon is enough for Caesar to kill him a hundred times...
Then, there's one more thing.
He combed through everything from Stan Victor's bribery to the present, and reasoned anew.
Assuming that his ability to manipulate the mysterious fluctuations was as he had guessed, whether the Eye Demon's every move was under the watchful eye of others, it would be impossible for the nobles like Valashri to suddenly start studying the mysterious fluctuations without taking it into account.
Thinking about the fact that this so-called fluctuation was originally studied by the eldest prince, and the eldest prince's mother seems to know a little bit about it, it is a little scary to think about it.
So far, there has been no movement on the royal side, what does this mean?
It shows that the person on the throne actually knows a lot of things, but he doesn't act rashly, it seems that he is putting a long line and catching a big fish.
Big fish, it's impossible for them, then it's only Zemas's side...
In other words, the royal family may not have direct evidence of Zemas's rebellion, but the royal family does not need it, for this kind of thing, it is enough to have any doubts, and when needed, you can directly use soul spells to read the memory...
Of course, for now, all this is just his speculation based on the phrase 'let them know as soon as possible', but whether this speculation is correct or not, it will be known immediately that the man did this nothing more than to lure the patriarchs of their four families together, and the purpose is not to play, but... Kill them.
As soon as the four of them die, the four grain families will be in a mess, and when the time comes, he will be able to swallow all the grain market share of the four of their families in one gulp.
At the same time, if the corpse of the Eye Demon is also found here, it can be an excuse for the royal family to use soul spells for the remaining people of the four families who have the right to inherit...
In fact, before the advent of the mysterious fluctuation, which is a devastating means of listening to the enchantment, most of the nobles used to study some top-secret information by means of magical enchantment and personnel patrolling, but this was not 100%.
For example, some strong people can come and bypass these in person, so the nobles will have the inheritance of code words, saying one thing on the surface, but in fact saying another thing.
After the popularization of mysterious fluctuations, the importance of code words has become even more important, after all, the so-called magic or alchemy, are constantly iterating, and at this stage, no one has found a means to counter interference, which does not mean that the future is impossible.
Naturally, the same would be true about the rebellion, so he told his son, the next patriarch, in a code word, that the three of them would do the same.
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for people to grasp any evidence of such top-secret exchanges, but in the face of soul spells, all these top-secret exchanges are meaningless...
Thankfully, as the master of the Eye Demon, he got information that the other three people didn't know, which allowed him to deduce this.
So, he made two preparations.
If there were no accidents here, it would prove that his previous inference was nothing more than a battle of wits with the air, and within half an hour he only had to send another message to his son, and all the crisis would have disappeared.
But if he dies, then it proves that he guessed correctly, and his son will go to the royal family to report himself, the father, and the three of them, so that the Victor family can draw a line with him, so as to ensure the inheritance of the family.
Even if you are slowly lonely, it is better than dying completely, as long as there is still the principal, there is always a chance to make a comeback.
As for whether Caesar believed what his son said, this was the tacit understanding between him and the copper coin, according to his analysis, this person was not a guy who was bent on the border kingdom, in a sense, he was as greedy as these nobles, and his methods were more ruthless.
It's like he and others have a feud just because of the lunch box, ordinary nobles make moves, and they all come and go, and he either doesn't make a move, and once he makes a move, he doesn't give him a way to live at all, and even when he dies, he has to completely strip off the body and take away all the benefits.
That is to say, if there is any accident here today, he will never admit that he did it, because once he admits that he designed to kill the four nobles, even if these nobles themselves made mistakes, it will not be your turn to judge a non-member of the royal family, and it is very likely that his plan to annex the grain market will be thwarted afterwards.
On the contrary, if his son stands up and says that all this is designed by him, the purpose is to serve the country, the copper coin will definitely not be debunked, and will even help to repair the loopholes, because if he does not debunk, for his interests, that is the greatest.
At this point, the only variable is the third princess Pendri, she should also know the whole plan, if she takes the initiative to tell King Caesar, then, her own family will not escape punishment, but in the end, he decided that it will not.
Before, when the two of them were strolling by the lake, the happiness on her face, he was too familiar, he had seen it decades ago, and the little girls he had conquered, everyone's face was like this...
Not to mention, as the person most likely to become king in the future, she should choose to stand on the side of the copper coin, which is also the choice to maximize profits...
