Chapter 280 Sleepless Night (1)

At first, Apu was a little confused as to what was written on the letter that would make Holt so angry.

After all, Holt was a very sinister old man, and his emotions were invisible. He looked like a kind old man, but behind the scenes he was extremely dirty. He was very good at disguising himself. As a result, when Apu heard what Holt said, he immediately understood that no matter who it was, they would be furious.

It's so fucking inhuman.

Holt is the king, and he actually asked the king to publicly announce his divorce from his own princess. Doesn't the king have any face? What's the difference between this and directly asking him to hand over his wife?

The most inappropriate thing is the last one, which is to invite Holt to attend his wedding with Agnes and Dolores.

Isn't this obviously telling the world that not only was Holt cuckolded, but his daughter was also abducted?

Killing someone is not so cruel, right? This kid is really too arrogant. Is there anything in this world that he dare not do? This level of humiliation is probably comparable to his wife having an affair with another man in the house, and he can only keep watch at the door.

The little thief was sweating profusely and was about to cry. Could he really know this? Would he be executed by the King just now because he stepped with his left foot first when he entered the door?

This time, Holt was really angry, angry to the extreme.

His fingers were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white and crackled.

Anyway, this shit didn't happen to him, and Ron wasn't going to marry Christian, so Apu wasn't that angry: "Brother, don't be angry yet."

"Ron is a really cunning guy. He is just trying to provoke you. If you can't suppress your anger and go to Ron to settle the score, then you will really fall into his trap."

Holt took a deep breath and seemed to calm down a little, but his violently heaving chest still clearly showed that the anger in Holt's heart could not be vented.

"What else did he say in the letter?" Apu continued to ask.

Holt's eyelids twitched rapidly several times, and he tried hard to suppress the anger that was rising in his throat. Then he said, "He also said that he would come to visit the palace tomorrow night."

"You need to discuss with me the details of your divorce from Agnes, as well as Dolores's gift and dowry."

"And he said, as a king, I am rich, and I cannot be stingy with my dowry."

Apu let out a long breath. He was really curious now. What kind of parents could raise such a top-notch thing?

Is this something a human can do?

If there is still a little bit of humanity left, you can't do such a cruel thing, right? Taking a deep breath, Apu gradually calmed himself down: "Brother Holt, don't be angry, don't be angry, in fact, let's think about it from another perspective. What happened today may not be a bad thing for us."

"What?" Holt was really angry. He had no ability to think normally at all.

"It's simple. Why did Ron kill Grand Duke Egbert first? To cut off our ally."

"Why did he write you this letter? He just wanted to irritate you. If you get angry and do something impulsive, he'll have his chance."

Holt frowned, he still didn't quite understand what Apu meant.

Apu continued to talk: "It's actually very simple. When those 564 thieves were all dead, we thought we underestimated the power of the prophet. But now, we may have overestimated the power of the prophet."

"The Prophet is strong, but not that strong."

"Think about it, if Ron is really that powerful, enough to easily crush both of you and me, then why would he need to go through all this trouble? Why not just come over and crush us all? Why would he first eliminate Grand Duke Egbert and then use tricks to anger you?"

As soon as these words came out, Holt's eyes gradually brightened.

I was very angry before, but I didn't expect this. Now after listening to Apu's analysis, it seems to make sense.

If Ron was really that powerful, it wouldn't be so troublesome, right?

"Brother, you and I both know that Ron is our biggest enemy right now." Apu continued, "As long as we can eradicate him, no matter what the price we pay, it will be worth it. Don't forget the treasures that Ron has..."

"So, let's stop hiding it and just put all our money at the stake. I will bring the Church of the Goddess of Dawn and all the clergy who are loyal to me. Brother, your guards and the royal magic corps should also not be hidden. No matter what the cost, this time, Ron must be killed completely."

Holt's eyes became brighter and brighter.

That's right, Ron had a large amount of dragon remains, dragon crystals, dragon treasures, as well as powerful equipment and mythical weapons looted from the Temple of Dusk.

Even if they divided it equally between the two, it would still be an extremely exaggerated amount of wealth.

As long as he had this wealth, even if all his men died, he could always mobilize a powerful force at any time. No matter what, ensuring Ron's death was the top priority.

"We all have some familiar friends and nobles. We should promise them some benefits and bring in all of them. Don't leave any behind..."

"It's a pity that the Andre family broke up with you before. Otherwise, if you brought Augustus with you, we would have one more master this time." Apu continued.

The Andre family... Holt felt a little angry when he thought of his own treasury that was stolen.

However, what Apu said was correct. If Augustus could be brought here, he would indeed be a powerful helper. After all, Augustus' strength was not inferior to that of the two of them.

It's even vaguely a little higher.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

After all, it is the inheritance of sages. Although it has declined, it still has some heritage.

How about going over to apologize to Augustus? Say that the theft of the treasury was caused by Ron, that guy was cunning and deliberately directed the blame to the Andre family, and I was fooled by him?

In this way, both sides have a step down.

Oh, and the president of the Magic Association, Dominic... That guy, his legitimate son was killed, and he has been looking for the murderer like crazy during this period. Although he died near the old house of the Andre family, Augustus denied it and never admitted that he killed Dominic's son. Should he put the blame on Ron? If Augustus and Dominic were brought in, they would not be fools like Egbert, but they had real power. I, plus Apu, plus a large number of clergymen of the Church of the Goddess of Dawn who were loyal to Apu, as well as the Royal Guards and the Royal Magic Corps.

By then, it would be enough to set up a tight net in the palace, and Ron would definitely not be able to return.

The more Holt and Apu discussed it, the more excited they became, and they felt like they could do it again.

It was as if Ron had died in front of them.

…

On the other side, Ron and Agnes arrived at a hotel.

He originally planned to visit Christian and meet Cecilia and Irelia, but after asking around, he found out that the now famous Bloody Nun and White Saint were suppressing the Young God in another city and were not in the royal city at the moment.

So, he temporarily gave up the idea. Besides, after a long journey, he was indeed quite tired, so Ron was ready to take a short rest.

The hotels in King Adams City are definitely much better than those in Lombok.

The suite was spacious and bright, and Lucia had already fallen asleep in the small room inside.

Although there were sporadic snowflakes outside, the room was as warm as spring and there was no sense of coolness at all.

When Ron came to Adams again, his mood was very different. He stood quietly at the window, gazing at the outside world. The flying snowflakes reflected the colorful light, making the city more beautiful, and all the filth was covered by this brightness in the darkness that no one could see.

There was a sound of splashing water in the bathroom.

Agnes is taking a bath.

Through the rough frosted glass, the outline of Agnes's graceful figure could be clearly seen.

Tonight is destined to be another sleepless night! 　Chapter 1 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
