"Your Majesty, the corpse brought by Count Alice has been identified, it is a subordinate of Baron Samson, a vassal of the Larkin family, and he only entered the city this morning, and there is a record of entering and leaving the city gate!"

The atmosphere in the palace hall was solemn, and just when everyone was silent, a guard quickly ran in from outside the hall and reported to the king respectfully.

"Count Avery?"

The king frowned and looked at Avery, who was sitting on his right, the last thing he wanted to see, but it happened at this time.

Now the two sides in the field are at loggerheads, and Gervais says that he didn't kill Ulek, and his cultivation is the Bronze Beginner Knight.

And Alice also suspects that this incident is likely to be a conspiracy, and Gervais is to blame.

However, the eldest prince and the young nobles who accompanied him agreed that it was Gervais who killed Ulek, because Gervais was the only one nearby at that time.

For the time being, the only way to do this is to start with another Assassin who neither side knows each other.

The king's current idea is that no matter who killed Ulek, as long as the evidence is conclusive, he will directly clean up the murderer, and appease the anger of the Charles family first, so as not to affect the southern expedition.

You must know that for this southern expedition, he is the strength of the whole country, and he must not want to take the Duchy of Alban at one time.

……

Avery was overjoyed to know that Ulrick was dead and that the suspect was still Gervais, so not only Gervais would suffer, but even the Jones family would not be happy.

Now seeing that the king was looking at him, Avery was not in a hurry, still sitting in the soft chair, but replied to the king in a respectful tone: "Your Majesty, I do not know anything about this! ”

"But I have a hypothesis that Samson is actually Wright's son, and wasn't Wright killed in Jones Collar the other day? I think this Assassin can be here for that. ”

"So, the matter of Viscount Ulric should have nothing to do with this assassin!"

"Of course, since this is a person under the vassals of the Larkin family at this moment, please rest assured that Your Majesty the King will find out the situation after the end of the southern expedition and give an explanation to Viscount Gervais."

"If he had been alive then!"

Avery silently added in his heart, he had already thought of this set of words, so he didn't need to think about it at all.

Listening to Avery's words, the king nodded slightly, the king didn't want to involve the Larkin family anymore, it was most appropriate to delay it until the southern expedition to solve it!

"Count Nemio! Now that both sides of this matter have their own opinions, and it is likely to be an accident, and there is no witness at the scene, why don't we deal with it after we return from the southern expedition? ”

The king looked at Nemeo.

Although Alice also took Gervais to ask for justice, saying that the eldest prince and Ulric wanted to rob the unicorn, but this matter was only a small friction after all, and it became insignificant compared to Ulric's death.

What the king needs most now is to appease Nemio, and as long as Nemio agrees, then the matter can be suppressed or put off for later.

Bang!

Nervous finally couldn't take it anymore and slammed the table and stood up.

The reason why he was so calm just now was entirely because he cared about the king's face, and he also wanted to see if he could find out the real evidence.

But it was clear that there was no evidence, and it was dark at the time, and there were three dead and wounded, and it was impossible to convict Gervais from a legal point of view.

However, Nemio still knew one thing, the eldest prince present did not dare to murder his heir, because it would not do the eldest prince any good, but would be extremely detrimental.

On the contrary, the husband of the Jones family, the earl, has full motives, and now whether Gervais is the real murderer or not, he Nemio will kill Gervais first, if Gervais cannot be killed on the spot today, then what face does the Charles family have in the principality.

As for the other investigations, we will follow up slowly in the future.

"Your Majesty, Ullick is the next heir of my Charles family, and now the murderer is in sight, if you don't make decisions for me, then I will personally avenge my son!"

As one of the eight counts of the Duchy, Nemio is also a Golden Knight, so unless he rebels against the king, it is no problem to slap the table in front of the king like he does now.

After speaking, Nemio set his eyes on the body of Gervais on the other side, and the power belonging to the Golden Knight instantly spread in the hall.

This was the first time Gervais had seen the might of the Golden Knight, and the moment Nemio looked at him, Gervais felt as if his whole body froze.

The power of the Golden Knight has changed from nothingness to a real substance that can be perceived.

Overwhelmed by Nemeo's momentum, Gervais slowly felt a little breathless, as if something was choking his neck.

In fact, in addition to Gervais, even Alice, the silver knight, was pale, and obviously uncomfortable.

"Damn, this old immortal wouldn't really dare to kill me in front of the king, would he?"

Gervais leaned back in his chair to avoid slumping himself to the ground.

But Gervais's real concern was another fateful issue.

Originally, he thought that Nemio would not dare to really do it in front of the king, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.

Nemio didn't seem to care about the king's presence, and the king, though his face was a little ugly, did not stop him.

"Damn, this king is deliberately trying to get Nemio to kill me?"

Gervais speculated that the king probably wanted to use the life of his pawn to appease Nemio's anger so as not to affect the progress of the southern expedition.

"Nemio! Are you going to war with the Jones family? ”

Alice spoke in a cold voice with difficulty.

However, Nemio ignored Alice's questioning.

At this moment, Nemio also sensed the king's attitude, and knew in his heart that the king did not speak immediately, probably acquiescing to his thoughts.

His words just now actually had a certain element of temptation, and if the king stopped him severely, of course he wouldn't dare to really do it here.

After all, the king is a golden peak knight, and he doesn't dare to really provoke the king's majesty, not to mention that the king wants to stop himself from killing, which is also a very easy thing.

With this figured out, Nemeo is ready to make a move!

He must now deal with Gervais quickly, and of course, after killing Gervais, he will still want the Jones family to demand compensation.

……

"Nemio! It's so majestic, I see which of you dares to touch Alice and Gervais! ”

Suddenly, a deep mockery came from outside the hall.

The moment the voice appeared, Gwiston felt the pressure on him dissipate, and his breathing returned.

"Lord of the North!"

Several counts were shocked!

"Gust, do you want to stop me from avenging my son?"

The moment the Lord of the North appeared, Nemio sensed that his might had been swept away, and he couldn't help but look towards the door with hatred on his face.

"Hehe, stop you? Are you worthy? If it weren't for Odell's disappearance, how dare you coward deal with the Jones family so unscrupulously? ”

Before the person arrived, the voice came first, and when the voice of this sentence fell, everyone finally saw the old man with a little gray sideburns at the entrance of the hall, but his body was unusually burly.

The old man was wearing silver armor, not only did he look old, but he was extraordinary, and the cloak behind him had not yet been removed, and there was a lot of dust stuck to it.

"Grandfather!"

When Alice saw the arrival of the Lord of the North, she immediately took two steps forward in surprise and leaned towards the Lord of the North.

"Haha! Girl! Don't be afraid, grandfather is here, I see who dares to bully you! ”

The Lord of the North patted Alice on the shoulder dotingly, and then continued: "I haven't seen you for several years, you have grown so big, and you look more and more like your mother!" ”

"Odell is also a useless person, a knight at the peak of the golden peak said that he was missing, and he was missing! Weigh such a big burden on you as much as the Jones family! ”

"Grandfather, my father definitely doesn't want to do this, don't talk about him! You've just arrived, right? Come and sit down! ”

Alice's eyes were slightly rosy, and after his father disappeared, the lord of the north was the only strongest person to rely on in the Jones family.

Seeing the dress of the Lord of the North, it was obvious that the Lord of the North had not even had time to change his armor, so he rushed to the palace.
