"...That's probably it. Among the powers directly under the royal family, only Neo, the former police chief of York City, failed to set an example and command as he should during the mutation, which caused great losses to York.
, so he was punished to a certain extent.”
"Currently, he should be serving in a police station affiliated with a certain district in Faerun."
"As for the change in York, the real cause behind the scenes has not yet been investigated. What is known is that the happenings occurred at almost the same time in three locations: Hitles Castle, Foel Mansion, and Azure Square in the northwest of the suburbs.
Changed."
"Among the three locations, the one with the largest scale and the widest range of influence is the Azure Plaza in the south."
"The cause of the mutation, which contains the aura of decay, depravity and death, has not yet been investigated. However, according to the investigation by the Sky Church in York City, it is speculated that it is likely to be man-made."
"That's probably what it looks like."
After Li Yedonich finished speaking, he lowered his head, looking serious like a subordinate reporting a mission to his superior.
Otta looked at the antlers decoration in front of him. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said:
"That's it. Thank you for your hard work. If you have nothing to do, you can go back first. By the way, if you have time, don't forget to visit your father. Although he doesn't care about you, as a minister,
, you are also your father’s child, this is what you should and must do.”
"I understand, Brother Ota." Liedonisi stood up and left. A moment later, the sound of a carriage came from the window.
It wasn't until the sound of the carriage outside completely disappeared that the door next to it quietly opened, and then a man in a robe walked in.
The man looks like an ordinary middle-aged man, without any special features, the type who disappears in a blink of an eye when thrown into a crowd.
If there is only one thing worth noting, it is the man's hair. Although the man looks only middle-aged, his hair has turned gray. This can only happen if he has been engaged in complex mental work for many years.
The man walked in slowly and said to Ota:
"No matter how you say it, he is your brother. Although you don't have the same mother, is the tone in which you speak to this servant a little too ruthless for him?"
"Oh." Otta looked at the man and smiled, and said: "Stella, if I remember correctly, you should be from the Church of Destiny, right? You can even say this. Destiny is not for everyone.
Do you maintain an indifferent attitude towards all things?"
"To be precise, I defected from the Church of Destiny. I am not a standard member of the Church of Destiny." Stella replied.
"And I think that even the royal family of the Griffin Kingdom, the Palais family, should have a minimum of friendship. The friendship between brothers cannot be like wild beasts, right?"
Otta smiled silently and did not continue the topic.
"The reason why I speak like this is because my brother is such a person, and I treat him in the right way. You, who are not from the Palais family, cannot understand this."
"Let's not talk about it. How is Anne's side? Have everything been arranged? Doesn't Earl Crypt have any doubts?"
"You should be able to rest assured. After all, Anne is the person chosen by the prince, and Anne's feelings for the prince..." Stella paused, "I think that even if the prince asks her to do anything, Anne will do it willingly.
"
"In addition, I have also arranged for the right person to pick up Annie. What is the name of the new person... I have forgotten the name, but I have already made arrangements for him to guide his destiny."
"He will protect and respond to Anne unconsciously, and will not do anything that would endanger Anne. The prince can rest assured about this."
Ota nodded and said:
"It's best this way. Anne is an important chess piece. Through her, we can control Count Klipte, and by controlling Count Klipte, we can deal with the guy behind Count Klipte."
"By the way, have you found a better solution regarding the ambassador from Mogorian?"
"The pirate you found from the sea last time was, to be honest, really unacceptable. You know, it's not about the money, it's about that guy's way of doing things, which is too lax."
"If it weren't for the stupid guys in the police station who happened to use the True Knowledge Society as a shield, I almost don't know how it would have ended. I hope the result this time can satisfy me."
Stella leaned down to salute and said respectfully:
"The prince has been found. This time I am looking for a neutral mercenary organization. They are professionals and will leave no traces of anything they do."
"And when I made the commission, I had already concealed my identity and not revealed any clues. In addition, with the previous incident of Mayer as a foreshadowing, no one will have any doubts about you."
Hearing this, Ota nodded, showing a satisfied look, and said:
"That would be best. In fact, this matter can be carried out according to the previous official statement, and all matters and problems can be left to the True Knowledge Society. In this way, everything will become more reasonable."
Stella didn't speak, just kept bending down and remained silent for a long time.
Otta turned his head, saw Stella's appearance, raised his eyebrows, made a provocative expression, and asked:
"Why, do you think the way I do things is not in line with your wishes, or is it that the way I do things has violated the principles of your Destiny Church and makes you feel disgusted?"
"That's not the case. I was just thinking that since we have decided to assassinate the ambassador of Mogorian, why does the prince still want to use Count Klipte's power to send those innocent children to Enguize?"
"Moreover, once Mogorian's ambassador is killed, there will definitely be conflicts between the two countries. Is this the outcome that the prince wants?"
Otta thought for a while and laughed, "I can answer your second question first, because judging from the current relationship, even if Mogorian's ambassador dies, there will be no conflict between the two countries."
"Of course, I only learned it based on the intelligence from Mogolin. It is said that Ambassador Enguize did not have a good relationship with their foreign minister. Therefore, I believe that even if he dies, Mogolin will
Green will also turn a blind eye."
"As long as we handle this matter properly, nothing will be a problem. Of course, this requires Griffin to bear certain consequences, but this consequence has nothing to do with me."
"And this is also related to your first question."
Otta said, came to the balcony on one side, faced the vast sky, made a hug gesture, and said:
"Because, Mogorian is not our only enemy. In other words, before dealing with Mogorian, I have to seriously solve another problem, and that is the person behind Earl Krypt."
"That is, the person who is responsible for the relationship between Griffin and Mogorian."
"If I just use normal methods, I can't fight against that person now, so I can only use this method to connect Mogorian's ambassador with Count Krypt, and we stay out of it."
"When it's all over, the person who took responsibility will step down, and I will take over that position."
With that said, Ota turned around and looked at Stella, "If you feel pity for the fate of those children, then I can only tell you that there is no other way."
"For my future, for the great Griffin Kingdom, what do those people's lives and those people's fate mean?"
"They should even thank me for my generosity. Isn't it a reward for them to have their dedication paving the way for my bright future?"
After Ota finished speaking, he laughed very happily.
????????????
Somewhere in the forest.
The owl glanced at the rhinoceros aside and found that this guy had been keeping silent.
In desperation, Xiao Xiao sighed, turned to Nialilu, and said:
"Chief, you don't really intend to accept this commission, do you?"
Niellilu did not answer the question directly, but instead asked: "Do you two have any opinions on the authenticity of this commission?"
"I have no opinion on its authenticity. I just think this commission is very dangerous. Not long ago, the former pirate Mayer died because of this incident. Now, the master behind the scenes has been found.
us……"
"Don't you think that this incident seems to have some kind of ominous sign?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Xiao continued on by himself, "Assassinating the ambassador of Mogorian. I think only an impulsive person like Mayer would accept such a commission."
"In other words, it's because of the lack of money," Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes and looked at Niellilu, "Chief, are you because of the lack of money? If you are short of money, you can tell me that I still have some savings here."
Nialilu said: "This is not a question of lack of money, nor is it a question between the two countries Mogorian and Griffin. The problem now is that they are selling children and doing dirty things.
Do you understand the human trafficking? How important is this matter?"
After hearing this, the owl imitated the rhinoceros and became silent.
"So, there are only three of us," Xiao said, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly, "Yes, the commission is in Faerun, so we can go find her."
"What you said makes sense, but we can't go to her and let her do what she likes to do. We will only disturb her when the organization encounters a danger that is difficult to solve. This is not what we have agreed to do.
Something?" Nielliu said.
"That's a good thing to say, but after learning about human trafficking, I don't think she will remain silent."
"So, don't tell her about this."
After saying that, Niellilu turned her gaze back to the commission and said softly:
"What we have to do now is to investigate and follow up, find out the life trajectory of Ambassador Mogorian, including the guards and security measures around him, and then make a reasonable plan and course of action."
"The best result is to resolve all this quietly without launching a head-on battle."
