"Mage Guild?" Siegel was stunned for a moment, "I wasn't invited, are they ready to get started?"

"I guess so. Evan doesn't deny it. "The Mage Guild has secretly built a magic tower opposite the crystal wall passage, and wants me to preside over the completion ceremony there. The tower, known as the Flame Sigh, will bring about the end of the goblins and be the starting point for the capture of the crystal wall. In a way, it's like your starting point fortress. ”

"In a way, the starting point fortress is never the starting point of occupation and invasion, but the starting point of exploration. Siegel shook his head: "Don't talk about me yet." Can the Mage Guild keep you safe?"

"It's the most basic, you don't have to worry about it. You didn't receive an invitation, but I'll take you with you if you want to go. The federation is important to me, and so is the school city, so if possible, you should stop antagonizing. ”

"Did the people from the school city say that?" Siegel frowned and looked at Evan.

Evan let out a long sigh, then said, "No, they don't need to say it. Isn't that obvious?Does your opposition to Liele, the Federation and the Mage Guild have any good effect on the whole kingdom? Your suggestion,School City can always find a variety of reasons.。 Goblin nukes have reached the royal city, and the feud between your two factions has slowed down the pace of the entire kingdom, so it must be stopped. ”

"Is that what you think?" said Siegel, "yes." Let Riele give up his quest for dice, and I will give you peace. ”

"What do you mean, Siegel, I'm not with Leel. Evan spoke faster and faster, obviously in a hurry: "I have a hundred dice, you have twenty dice, we are together, aren't we?"

"I'm sorry. I was wrong. Siegel said, "I just wanted to remind you that the Mage Guild is still very dangerous, for you, for me, and even for the entire Star Kingdom. Until you find out how goblin weapons enter our world, you have to be very careful. When the missile was launched, you and I were in the Star Fort. If it hadn't been for the magic spaceship discovering the missile's trajectory, we would all have died!"

"I know that. But the Mage Guild still needs me to declare an all-out war against the goblins, and they still need me, the king, and it won't be them. Evan clearly had a mind of his own, "And I'm on your ship, you're sure you'll be able to keep me safe, won't you?"

This sentence may sound fine on the surface, but it would be strange if you looked deeper. Evan thinks that the Mage Guild needs a king, so it is not the Mage Guild that does it, and that Siegel's ship will keep him safe. And the blame can be put on the head of the association, is this implying that Siegel did the whole thing and blame the mage association?

The speaker may have been unintentional, but Siegel was uncomfortable to listen to. The king has not officially accused him, what can he say at this time?Explain, fight back, or ignore it?Siegel was silent for a while, and then gave in: "Lie...... The conflict between Liele and me is focused on the dice, but the conflict between the Mage Guild and the Federation is difficult to resolve. The association refused to save itself several times and violated the agreement. Strangled the Federation's spell scroll. Evan, this is a tough thing to deal with. Are you sure you want to mediate this matter with the authority of the king?"

"Can't I?" Evan held out his hand, "I can give Liele my hundred-faced dice, at least it will ease your relationship." Anything can be said after the dust settles on the goblin matter, and now we have to focus on the overall situation. ”

Siegel took a step back, unable to hide the disappointment on his face. "When the dust settles? you're disappointing me, Evan. Even I know that Liele won't rest on his laurels, and it won't be so easy for you to wait until the dust settles. I'm not going to give any dice to Liele. Not even if you say it. ”

"Is that still my dice?"

"Of course. But I can't watch you make a mistake, and I'm not going to let you give it to Leel. Siegel refused, "The dice are one with you, and Riele knows it." If he uses some means to affect the dice, and thus affect you. What then?"

"It's not the same in your hands?" Evan said, frowning himself, before explaining, "Siegel, I'm not saying you're going to do anything bad, just that both of you are spellcasters to me, and I have to look at this matter fairly. Riele is very suspicious now, but he has been serving the royal family for decades and has always been discreet. You also said that his prophecy about Aaron was also helping him. The school city still plays a very important role in the kingdom of stars, and as a king, I can't let the kingdom fall into a possible split. You are a good friend of mine, please understand me. ”

"If you want me to say, it should be Liel who should make concessions, not me. Siegel shook his head slowly, and said, "Except for the refusal of the Federation's request for assistance, I, we never asked him for anything, it was he who kept trying to take my things. ”

"It's my stuff. Evan smiled wryly.

"Why is he? because he has worked so long, because he is older?" snorted, "and he can't be greedy, or this thing will never end." The system of the school city is good, and professional skills are used to ensure the level of the lord's rule. But don't forget, you'll need skill, not greed. ”

"I know, but sometimes I know it's right, but I can't do it, or I can't do it now. The situation forced me to compromise at some point. ”

Compromise and balance, that's the ability of Turner with ten dice, not your Evan with a hundred dice!" Siegel shouted in his heart, but suddenly some thoughts popped into him. The rule of the hundred-faced dice is the extreme, and for Evan it is the ultimate in swordsmanship. In the past, Evan was never afraid of challenges, what the hell is compromise? Even during the period of "two kings coexisting", Evan did not fight because he was not interested, not because he was constrained by circumstances or difficulties. Even in the face of a hundred huge waves, he only has a sword to cut through, and there will never be any compromise.

Could it be that his personality changed because he had not worn dice for a long time? Siegel had this question, but he didn't dare to test it. What if he gave the dice back and only to compromise before his personality could be reversed, or if the matter had nothing to do with the dice at all, and Riele could easily get the dice?

He still remembered what he saw through Aaron's memories. In the basement of the Star Castle, those complex magic arrays lit up the dice, releasing its power to some extent. It's hard to know for sure if Riele has mastered how to fire the dice, but if someone can crack it, the gods of magic and knowledge in the past are most likely.

Siegel and Evan fell silent, neither of them willing to speak, or even look at each other, and the scene became very awkward.

"Evan, I'm not just your friend, I'm actually your brother. Siegel said, "You...... In fact, you should not be Aaron's brother, and you don't have the blood of the Star Royal Family. ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Evan frowned, very puzzled by Siegel's words.

So Siegel told Evan the story Turner had told him the same.

Evan tried to interrupt Siegel several times, but he couldn't help it, but when he heard it, he suddenly got angry and slammed it on the table. "Enough, you actually believe this, this is Orthodox propaganda, it's a lie! Don't say such things in front of me! I'm the king, I'm Evan Stars, not Evan dice!"

"What does this have to do with Orthodoxy? I'm just telling you the truth, I'm your brother, I'm only going to help you, not hurt you. ”

"I remember that you told me to find the dice, and I wouldn't have known about the dice if it weren't for you. Evan straightened his hands on the table, glared at Siegel and said, "When there are no dice, there's nothing wrong with me." Good health, normal thinking, and rapid progress in swordsmanship. What did the dice help me? What does it have to do with me sitting on the throne. Now I don't have dice around me, isn't it good? Everything is slowly settled, and the only trouble is that you and Liel have a dispute because of this dice! You say that these hundred dice are mine, then who do I give my freedom. Now I want you to give me back the dice, and it's time for this farce to end. The Kingdom of Stars needs to unite and unite with the outside world to destroy the goblins before there can be peace. ”

Looking at Evan's outstretched palm, Siegel had mixed feelings, he already knew where he had been hit. Orthodox propaganda must be mixed with claims that Evan is not of royal blood, and it is likely that Liel slandered Evan as a "machine spirit of intelligent magical objects", a "puppeteer", or a "man of non-flesh and blood". It seems that others will scoff at these things, and Evan will not take them to heart. But if Siegel mentions brotherhood in front of Evan and uses dice as an example, those words will turn into daggers and stab Evan in the heart.

Originally, Sir Bill was in the Orthodox Church, and it was Evan who saw Siegel's affection and pardoned him with the king's prerogatives. Now hearing from Siegel what only the core members of the Orthodox Church know, how can it not arouse Evan's suspicions again?

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will one day blossom and sprout. Siegel wants to talk about friendship, Evan wants to talk about evidence, Siegel wants to talk about facts, Evan wants to talk about reasoning.

Siegel flipped his palm, and the hundred-sided dice appeared in his palm, and he lay quietly. "It's yours, and if you want it, I'll give it back to you. But I have a piece of advice that I hope you will listen to. ”

Evan didn't move, lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Say it." ”

"Mercenaries are all about the right work and fair pay. Doesn't Riele want the Dice of a Hundred Faces, let him settle the goblin matter and hand over the school city to you. Until then, you're wearing your own dice. The advisors of the school city have always been knowledgeable, and an archmage like him should be in the mage association, not in the school city. Siegel slapped the hundred-faced dice on the table in front of Evan and finally said, "You said I should make concessions for the sake of the big picture." Okay, now I'm giving in. But I can't always make concessions for the sake of the bigger picture. You'll see the insatiable greed of the Mage Guild and the Academy. Remember, Evan, if you hand over the dice, you may never get them back. I don't know what the ripple effect will be, but 100% not a good thing. ”

With that, Siegel turned and left. (To be continued.) )
