Chapter 937 - 483: Acquiring Dragon King’s Fire_3
"Speaking with such a great wizard, one must consider every word for a long time, otherwise he manipulates your fate and creates logic with Dark Soul and Light Soul, turning them into weapons to harm you. Your recent actions are like inviting a great villain into your home, which had been safe due to the Law, an utterly foolish act," he said.
"You even involved me, you had better do as you previously said, even go back to the Royal Capital and urge your Emperor to break the alliance with the heretics. Otherwise, you will spend the rest of your life bedridden! I will also have to pay a price."
Marcello Richard was drenched in sweat, and his legs were trembling.
To persuade the Emperor of Frank to change the national policy just for him?
Oh, God.
If the King of Frank were still the previous weak-willed, feeble king, he might have dared to speak those words, as there was no real need to achieve it. But the current emperor was decisive and commanded respect; if he dared to say it, he was a dead man.
Now he was trapped in a deadlock.
Marcello Richard couldn’t even begin to consider his own fate when he saw Ivita and others ascending to the mountaintop, the crater. He immediately instructed his brothers, "We absolutely cannot let them take away the Dragon King’s Fire. The Richard Family has already completely lost their feudal land, which is now controlled by the current chief judge of the great court. The Emperor of Frank controls the entire country with the royal court and the tax office."
"If we can’t protect the Dragon King’s Fire, our future will see us driven out of the Royal Capital, stripped of resources, gradually depleting our family’s foundation, eventually becoming completely powerless nobles, just like the other several original great noble families. We absolutely cannot have such a future," he said.
