Maybe others don't know it yet, but Roger knows that he has the Archangel statue in his hand, so how could it be in Gaia City? Roger has been traveling all over the country recently, and he has never heard of any Archangel statue in Gaia City.
The legend is clearly a lie deliberately fabricated by Alonso III in order to trick Hamilton into coming to the Rund Peninsula to die.【】
Roger knew in his heart that although Hamilton was already the most powerful person in the kingdom besides the king, he had always been loyal to the king and had no intention of replacing Alonso III. Not only that, the Duke was also a true patriot.
He is determined to build the Kingdom of Thorne into the most powerful country on the continent.
Alonso III took advantage of this and threw out the Archangel statue as a bait to trick Hamilton into venturing into the Rende Peninsula. As a result, he ended up with such a tragic end. It was pitiful that this Duke was dedicated to the interests of the country until he died.
It was only recently that I suddenly realized that I regretted not listening to Roger's words and retreating bravely. This would arouse the king's suspicion and lead to an unhappy ending.
In fact, if Roger hadn't arrived in time, not only would the Duke of Hamilton himself have turned into an undead creature, but even his daughter Anna would not have been spared. It can even be said that this matter all depended on Roger's help, otherwise
The Duke will end up dying in peace.
Speaking of which, Hamilton is really unfair. Just from the fact that the Duke hurried over regardless of the danger as soon as he knew that the Archangel Statue was in Gaia City, we know how much he loves the Kingdom of Thorne, even if he risks his life, he will save the souls of the dead.
Creatures are driven away from the kingdom's territory.
But Alonso III took advantage of Hamilton's loyalty to the country and forced him to come to this land where the undead were infested to die. What is sad is that the king's conspiracy really succeeded. Not only did he successfully get rid of the Duke,
Even the Duke's heir, Anna, almost escaped misfortune.
You must know that Hamilton only has an heir like Anna. If he and his daughter die on the Runde Peninsula, the duke's title and territory will be taken back by the kingdom, and no one has the right to say anything. What's even more outrageous about this plan is that
Alonso III is sure that in order to get the Archangel statue, Hamilton will regain the Lunde Peninsula from the undead creatures as soon as possible, so he will definitely make adjustments.
He gathered all the guards loyal to him to protect him in this dangerous place. If Roger hadn't arrived in time, these troops loyal to Hamilton would have been completely destroyed. Even if someone in Hamilton's group suspected that this was a conspiracy by the king,
, and no longer had any ability to challenge Alonso III. All the forces loyal to the Duke were consumed on the Lunde Peninsula.
Thinking of this, Roger couldn't help but feel worthless for Hamilton, and was extremely disgusted with Alonso III's vicious heart. Roger had long known that the emperor would do whatever it took to keep his power and get rid of those who threatened him. And since Alonso III
From Longso's point of view, Hamilton does have such ability, so in terms of what to use
The methods to deal with him are all conceivable. But because of the close relationship between Roger and Hamilton, he naturally hates the king deeply. If Roger had not promised him before Hamilton died, he would never take the initiative to go to Alonso.
If the third generation seeks revenge, Roger will definitely cause trouble for him after he returns.
How smart is Anna? Seeing that Roger was silent after hearing her words, but there was a trace of anger between his eyebrows, she quickly thought of his question, and immediately changed her pretty face and said: "Father's death and Aaron
Is it related to Suo Sanshi?!"
Roger knew that Anna was smart, and even if he could hide it for a while, she would be able to figure out the problem on her own later. So after a little hesitation, he decided to tell Anna the truth.
"Do you still remember what I asked you to bring to your father last time?" Roger said in a low voice: "I think... my bad premonition at that time came true."
Although Roger didn't speak clearly clearly, Anna immediately understood what he meant. Anna took a few quick breaths, and then said in a trembling voice: "Why did he do this? When my father was in the most difficult situation,
Only by standing with him at all times can he defeat Vattel and the others! My father has always been loyal to the royal family and the kingdom, why..."
Roger gently stroked Anna's jade back and let out a long sigh. Duke Hamilton's biggest mistake was not to retreat bravely. According to Roger's experience, those ministers on earth who have made great achievements and made the king jealous, either
Anyone who is determined to rebel will never end well, with almost no exceptions. If Duke Hamilton had listened to Roger and voluntarily surrendered all power, he would not have ended up like he did now.
However, from the perspective of the Toulonzo world, what Alonso III did was indeed too much. If word spread, not only would he be despised, but no one would ever serve him loyally.
Of course, these are not issues that Roger and Anna have to consider. At this time, the Duke's daughter only feels the burning anger burning in her chest. The sad expression gradually recedes from her pretty face, replaced by unspeakable anger: "
Roger, I want to avenge my father!"
Of course Roger could understand Anna's feelings, and he would definitely make the same decision. However, thinking about what he promised Hamilton before he died, Roger still sighed softly and said: "I promised your father, please do it well."
I will take care of you and not let you be harmed by anyone, but I will not take the initiative to provoke Alonso III."
"Why did father do this?" Anna asked Roger in confusion: "He knew clearly that it was Alonso III who framed him, why didn't he want to take revenge?"
"Because he really loves this country." Roger sighed: "So he doesn't want us to drag this country into a whirlpool of trouble in order to avenge him!"
Of course Anna knew her father very well, and she also knew that what Roger said was indeed correct. For a moment, two thoughts collided with each other in her head, causing Anna to grab her hair in pain, not knowing what to do.
Looking at Anna's painful look, Roger gently held her in his arms and said: "Don't think too much, let's just obey your father's last wish for the time being. I believe... this situation won't last long, you
There is always a chance for revenge!"
Roger's words shocked Anna, and she raised her head to look at him in disbelief. Of course Anna was smart enough to hear it, and Roger obviously felt that Alonso III would not give up on this matter.
Anna was about to ask Roger clearly. But at the same time, the two of them heard a loud noise coming from outside.
