Troller - chapter 398
The royal family of Brianella, one of the Seven Kingdoms of the Seven Kingdoms, could not resist the fury of the colossal oil that had been lost and injured by deliberate arson at the banquet hall of the house where the royal family lived.
“This is absolutely unavoidable! ”
“Yes. Even in Briannella’s name, you must uncover the remorse and root it out! ”
“That’s right! What kind of family is Brianella?! ”
It is not easy for the royals who live in all of these areas to gather in one place. Therefore, there are no videoconferencing facilities in emergencies like this.
Bastola, the first prince and next householder of the Brianella family, looked at the sights in front of her.
Many of those attending the meeting are relatives of the nobles who died and were injured at the banquet, so there is a different overheating from the usual, rather cold-hearted atmosphere of the meeting.
When Valera and Latna returned from the dead and testified about Taralla and her servant Bell Peor, who belonged to the same Seven Kingdoms, prudence prevailed because of the repercussions, but now prudence itself appears in a taboo atmosphere.
As for Bastola, it was best to succeed the Briannella family intact, as other members of the predecessor’s household would have done, but he was likely to be perceived as a weak monarch if he responded warmly in the current situation where his pet and sister, Mayuna, were threatened.
Difficult.
In this way, the war with Taralla seems immortal.
Public opinion was still leaning sharply towards the headlines, even though it was not even confirmed that Taralla was behind the incident.
Even though Briannella’s honor can’t hold her back, she’s not a small rebel, and she has no idea how much damage she will do to her opponent in her seventies.
At that point, peace was long.
In the early days of the establishment of the Seven Kingdoms, of course, and even after the establishment of the Seven Kingdoms, amputations continued for a long time in the shadows.
But that was a long time ago.
I don’t even remember when the surrogacy by the Chilsung dynasty disappeared as a Bastola.
Is it really the right thing to come to war after enjoying peace for so long?
Moreover, if Bryanella tries to fight Tarala, will the rest of the vultures still see it?
It is clear that there is no need to see the merger, and in fact, there has been a gradual increase in the number of clandestine walks of contact from other sulfur houses that felt the ominous energy that had taken place between Briannella and Tarala.
Bastola stood up while watching the meeting.
I will not spend the night like this, because I wanted to settle other business first.
After returning to the executive office and sitting down, the assistants came in and delivered a list with a respectful attitude.
“Is this all? ”
“Yes.”
Bastola sent out the aides and looked at the list.
It contained a list of the statues of those who were recommended as the Lord of the Holy Places.
The Lord of the Castle is the most powerful weapon that can be made through the seeds of creation.
The ultimate weapon they possess is the ability to destroy a stronghold with their own power, and can also create a number of tireless soldiers in no time.
If the war is imminent, it is never wise to leave the master of the Holy City vacant.
“Tsk…”
However, Bastola had no choice but to check the faces of those recommended by each family and slash her tongue.
It’s because it’s been replaced for so long.
One could only assume that each family, including the royal family, was in the order of the list to push their own family and those close to them.
“It’s really hard. ”
According to the information, Bell Feor appeared to be performing his duties normally in his dimensional fort.
Moreover, the Taralla family criticized the request for attendance from the Brianella family as an unpleasant ploy.
They sent data about the actions of Bell Peor to the Brianella family at the time of the collapse of the Bell Laya Dimension Fortress, but no one wanted to believe the evidence because it was not difficult to forge this much evidence, if at all.
Those who will give precedence to the evidence presented by the Tarala family over the testimonies of Valera and Latna, at least there is no one in the family at this time.
At least this is the part that can positively assess the current situation.
As Bastola looked at the documents and pondered which one of them was right to choose as the lord of the throne, the door opened and the aide approached and said:
“The Emperor is asking to see you. ”
“Mayuna? Come on in. ”
Bastola stood up and greeted her sister, Mayuna, once she covered her paperwork.
Although she was usually an exceptionally strong woman, I don’t know if she went through anything big, but she is even worse today.
“Mayuna.”
“Prince.”
Bastola stretches out her arms and holds her dog in her arms.
“Any injuries? ”
“Yes. Fortunately. ”
“What about the other kids? ”
“Everyone is coming back safely and relaxing. ”
“Thank God you stopped. Now, come here. ”
“Thank you.”
When Bastola sent a snowflake, the aides quietly retreated out and kissed her lips, wrapped around Mayuna’s neck as only two remained in the wide parlour.
At the end of the kiss, Bastola looked her in the eye, holding Mayuna’s hand.
“Tell me what happened. ”
“Yes.”
Mayuna carefully explained what had happened at the banquet hall.
Suddenly the ceiling melted and the flame struck the nobles and their attendants with a pale complexion. Bastola could not resist her anger by biting her lips.
If the ceiling protected by all kinds of magic and fire protection equipment is so powerful that it can melt like that, it is hard to think of it as a simple fire.
Not once. Twice. Going after Briannella’s immediate family.
This was never to be overlooked and moved on.
“Well done. Rest easy for now. ”
“Yes, brother. ”
In her official position, she called herself a prince, but when she was alone, she called her brother, as she did when she was a child.
Bastola looked back at Mayuna, and as she went out, she summoned the aides and asked.
“Are we still not sure who the culprit is? ”
“Yes. None of the servants or guards around the banquet hall at the time noticed the precedent of the offense, except for those who guarded the rooftop just before the offense. ”
“Cause of death? ”
“Sosa.”
Bastola frowns.
“Dead? ”
“That’s right. I did a scrutiny to determine if the body was damaged by the fire, but it turns out the evidence is clear. ”
“Hmm…”
Fire and burnt guards melted the ceiling of the banquet hall.
It’s so cunning to think it’s a coincidence.
“Then…”
“There are two main possibilities. It is highly likely that he is a Dark Seed holder who has increased his attributes to their maximum potential, or some equipment capable of producing that amount of firepower has been mobilized. ”
However, there are many difficulties to be sure of these speculations.
Firstly, it is not easy to destroy the magic or fire protection equipment that was protecting the banquet hall, even if you can use the Dark Seed to maximize its attributes.
If you have that kind of power, you will already know what kind of movement there is in the intelligence bureau in Huangxi.
As usual, it is very difficult to leave the surveillance network and commit such a massive offense if the boundary conditions have been reinforced by the disappearance and return of Valera and Latna.
It is also difficult to mobilize equipment.
Nevertheless, the incident took place.
What does this mean?
I don’t like it unless I think there’s a big hole in it that they don’t know about.
“Who is unambiguous about what happened immediately after the incident? ”
“At the moment, we know it’s not there. ”
“That’s true. ”
There is something.
There’s something they’re not thinking about.
However, no matter what you think, the outline of the unsub hiding in the shadows has rarely been revealed.
“Report it as soon as any other information comes in. ”
“I’ll do that. ”
After a conversation with the aide, Bastola reopened the list she had left covered.
Bastola first compressed the candidates to about three, then extracted only their information and rearranged the paperwork, carrying it to the top floor of the fort.
With a dedicated hoisting device, Bastola takes a step to the top floor.
Reaching a small room where the head of the family who rules the universe seems rather rustic, Bastola confronts her father who is touching something while facing a small table.
His name is Valeur.
Although the full name is much longer and more complex, the long name is, of course, not even Balur, the first name to be used collectively, has rarely been named at the present time.
There’s only one thing I call him right now.
Briannella family, that’s the only one.
“What’s going on? ”
Bastola quickly nodded and replied.
“I’ve come to ask you what kind of person you will fit into the throne. ”
Although he was his father, Bastola was strictly polite before that as he was also a military relation.
Before I became a Gaju, my father always remembered that he was a sweet man with no smile on his face.
Of course, the way she looks at herself is still warm, but Bastola sometimes feels like her father’s gaze pierces her into a fang.
When I was a child, I was terrified by my father’s transformation.
However, I think it might be natural to be a family leader named Briannella.
Bastilla’s documents were delivered in the air, and the Gaju, who had been looking at them, took out one of the documents contained in it and handed it back to Bastilla.
“Do it with him. ”
“Got it.”
“Anything else? ”
Bastola replied, nodding again.
“As you already know, public opinion is leaning towards war. ”
“War…”
Gaju paused his hand and looked at the void and asked.
“What do you think? ”
Bastola replied cautiously.
“First, it is important to know your opponent’s intentions. ”
“Intention…”
“And… I think we should keep in mind the possibility of a third party plot, not Tarala. ”
“You mean you don’t credit Valera’s testimony? ”
“Not only that, but there is also the possibility that the sight that Valera saw was a camouflage decorated with someone else’s scheme. ”
“Even so.”
Gaju nodded and said again.
“The damage to Briannella’s majesty is something that must be punished, but it is something that should be avoided by playing in someone else’s hands and being laughed at. Judge carefully and do your best not to do anything wrong. ”
“It will be done as you have commanded. ”
Bastola shook her head and came out of the Gaju War.
Coming down on a dedicated elevator, he handed over the papers of the selected candidate from the aide and headed to the residence where he and Mayuna were staying for a while.
Bastola, who had accompanied the men and women to the residence, saw three men and women leaving the homes of the incoming guards.
At first, he tried to overcome the indifference, but somehow the goggles the man was wearing were trampled on.
I’ve definitely seen it somewhere.
After a brief glance at his head, he recalls that the goggle was used by the watchman under Bell Laya.
“Bring him. ”
“Yes.”
The servants immediately brought the man who was moving with the maids to Bastola.
“What’s your name?”
“This is Anthram.”
According to his answer, the Complainant searched the list and communicated the information to Bastola.
“I am the Second Princess’s attendant. ”
“… ”
Bastola asked, pointing to the goggles that the quadrilateral was wearing.
“Bring it here. ”
“… ”
When Jun-san took off his goggles, the undertakers gave him a embarrassing look.
Armed with all sorts of items, however, Bastola looks even more suspicious, without being misled by a quaint face.
“This is the watchman’s goggle. Did you take Bell Laya’s orders? Why is he acting like a neighbor to Latna? ”
“… ”
“You… what are you? ”
In Bastola’s words, the quadrilateral lightly fills his tongue.
“Tsk… Too bad, but I can’t help it. ”
“What?”
In a quaint attitude, Bastola gives instructions to the guards.
“Beat him. ”
“Yes.”
Several guards tried to move their bodies at the same time as the answer, but they fell down with a short groan before moving a few steps.
It was the same guards who attacked them.
In the meantime, half the guards and all the aides fell to the ground, bleeding without even screaming.
“Hey, what is this…?”
Bastola was suddenly unconscious by the smell of blood.
