Chapter 113: The Brotherly Wall
At the same time that Lin Xiao went to the Great Library, the fourth prince Avar, accompanied by Luks, also went to the Star Sanctuary.
The election for the throne of the Magic Wizard is about to be held here.
"Is Master Helena here?"
"Rest assured, everything is in plan."
After listening to Lux's reply, Avar tried his best to control his expression, trying to make his expression look calmer.
Still, the slightly trembling index finger betrayed him.
Avar knew very well that since he had received Lin Xiao's promise, the crown inlaid with the seven-colored magic gem must be his own.
Long-held dreams are about to become reality, and it will be difficult for anyone to maintain normalcy.
For example, Prince Ignas, when he looked at the princes who had the right to inherit, he could not hide the killing intent in his heart.
Four princes, five princes, seven princes, eleven princes.
With the exception of the younger princes, the thirteenth and seventeenth princes, several candidates for the throne standing in the center of the temple were all listed by him as dead.
Once he inherited the throne, the first thing he did was to completely eradicate his younger brothers.
I have to say that Prince Ignas has already won the "essence" of the way the brothers of the "imperial family" get along.
"Brother Avar, you must win, or we will ......"
It was Elijah, the fifth prince, who spoke.
He had no intention of competing with Ignath for the throne.
However, due to the restrictions of the rules of the inheritance of the throne, he could only be involved in this extremely dangerous battle for the throne.
Elijah knew very well that if the election had taken place six months ago, he might have survived Ignath's life after he took the throne.
However, the sudden rise of the fourth prince Avar in the past six months has made the narrow-minded crown prince Ignas regard these princes with inheritance rights as a thorn in the side of those who want to get rid of them.
"I see."
Avar's calm demeanor was greatly admired by Elijah.
In the face of this kind of struggle for the throne that if he loses, he will die, he can still maintain such determination.
It's really human.
Elijah had not been very optimistic about his royal brother before.
In his opinion, Avar, who is low-key and moody, is at most a prince who knows how to protect himself.
However, in recent months, Avar has become a future virtuous monarch in Elijah's eyes as a future virtuous monarch who is qualified to inherit the throne of the Magister.
In the Council of the Spires of the Stars, he divided, co-opted, and suppressed the archmages who had supported Prince Ignath through his extremely clever "vertical and horizontal" technique, and achieved amazing results in a very short period of time.
According to Elijah's speculation, Avar should already have the strength to fight Ignath.
"Brother Wang, my court mentor is a book friend named Hananos."
Elijah seized the opportunity and secretly approached Avar, who was beside him.
"Look, do you need me to ask my mentor to speak to Lord Hananos and ask her to vote for you?"
The clever fifth prince knew that even if he took refuge in Ignas now, he would probably not end well.
Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to fight and seek a chance to survive.
Sometimes, as long as you don't make the wrong choice when standing in line, you can survive.
Elijah had already arranged for his court mentor to have secret contact with Hananos.
It was only yesterday that the Grand Magister named Hananos finally agreed to support Prince Avar under his "operation".
The reason why Elijah pretended to ask Avar if he needed his help was actually to convey the subtext of his heart to the fourth prince.
"I supported you at the most critical moment, and don't forget me when you get the throne."
The fifth prince believed that with Avar's wisdom, it was impossible not to understand the meaning of his words.
"Okay, I got it."
The fourth prince's calm answer shocked Elijah.
"He, his city is too deep!"
Including the newly appointed Camilla, there are only fifty-seven archmages in the Spire Council who are eligible to vote.
It can be said that the support of every archmage has a decisive impact on the outcome of the election.
Elijah had thought that Avar should at least be happy, even if he didn't immediately make a promise to him.
Unexpectedly, his royal brother just nodded lightly, and then there was no more.
", it's good that his opponent is not me, otherwise how could I have fought this kind of monster!"
Elijah of Avar looked at him in awe and succeeded in attracting the attention of Ignath.
"Elijah, what were you talking to him about?"
Ignas, who walked forward quickly, glanced disdainfully at the fifth prince in front of him, who looked full of fear for him.
He didn't have to think about it to guess what Elijah's idea was.
"Still want to live on that lowly man?"
Ignath had already thought of a way to die for Elijah in his mind.
Originally, if he had chosen to take refuge in himself, he would have been able to leave a whole corpse with dignity.
But now?
"Brother Ignas, if you inherit the throne, will you spare my life?"
As he pondered how to finish off Elijah's crown prince, the crown prince was amused by Avar's cold question.
"Hah! Brother Avar, what do you say? ”
He glanced at Camilla, the new Grand Magus sitting on the high platform, and checked the list of Archmages who had been controlled by potions before squeezing out a cruel smile at Avar.
"If I inherit the throne, I must taste the taste of your heart."
With that, Ignas was ready to taste Avar's fear of himself.
However, the indifferent look on the face of the fourth prince, who made him hate, made Ignas feel a little uneasy.
"Brother Ignath, you can rest assured that if I take the throne, I will not kill you."
"I'll probably just cut off your limbs and tongue and gouge out your eyes."
Avar doesn't really have any creativity about torture.
He just repeated the cruel punishment he had heard from Lin Xiao to Prince Ignas.
"You, what did you say?"
Ignas, who was so furious, almost couldn't help but do it immediately.
However, after looking around at the archmages who had already entered one by one on the high platforms around the temple, the crown prince resisted the bloodthirsty urge in his heart.
"Humph! Hard-mouthed, huh? There will be a time when you will beg for mercy! ”
Ignaus threw down a harsh remark and hurried back to his seat.
"Alas, Lord Solomon, the family is unfortunate, and it really makes you see the joke......"
The actions of several princes have actually been watched by the old king of the Demon Country, Abil.
He knew that regardless of the outcome of the election, his children were doomed to kill each other.
"My lord, can I cancel the Zen Rang election?"
Abel sighed sadly and looked at the Holy Magister who had been sitting beside him since he had been in the middle of now.
"No, today's election must be held as scheduled."
Only King Abir knew in his heart that the convening of this Zen campaign was all Solomon's intention.
As for why the Holy Magister insisted on abdicating himself, the old king did not know.
"Your Excellency...... These kids of mine, they ......."
Abel is 84 years old this year, and his low strength will definitely not survive the 99-year-old life limit of the human race.
However, as long as he does not abdicate, he can still prevent the princes from killing each other.
"Don't worry, I will personally get rid of those losers who don't care about brotherhood for you."
"In that case, you only have to resent me."
Solomon's voice was soft, so soft that Abel thought he was dreaming.
In an instant, the old king looked much older.
