Chapter 315 You’ve caused me so much trouble!
Chapter 315 You’ve caused me so much trouble!
Auston tried to explain that he and Wayne were not related.
Looks like father and son.
If you insist that they are related by blood because they look alike, he and Douglas do look somewhat similar. Why hasn't anyone said that they are brothers?
Aston presented the facts and reasoned that Wayne was his son-in-law, and through this identity he became the heir to the Landau family.
The similarities in clothing and hairstyle come from the former butler Fla, which explains everything.
Sophia could no longer trust Auston as she did before. She did not refute, but asked: "The activation ceremony of the divine blood failed, Auston, do you know why?"
Auston remained silent. The activation ceremony of the divine blood was only partially successful because he had set up a magic circle in the Landau family, using the ancient silver coins as interference, which disrupted the internal stability of the gray space.
This is why, despite Frank’s thorough preparation, he was only halfway successful and failed to drain all of the royal family’s divine blood in one go.
Frank can activate the divine blood through the gray space, and Auston can naturally interrupt it. They have both invested a lot of research into the divine blood and fog, and use it as their trump card.
The difference is that Frank was concerned about the evolution of the Book of Hell, while Auston only wanted to protect himself and be prepared in advance just in case.
But no matter whether Austin had other ideas or not, his hand eventually reached into the gray area. This was the royal family's trump card against the Holy See and the foundation of the Windsor royal family. As a loyal subject, Austin's behavior made his loyalty seem particularly hypocritical.
Once the bridge of trust collapses, the truth will be treated as a lie.
When Auston said Wayne was not his son, Sophia found it irritating. That was it. The Landau family had already won everything, and there was no need to continue pretending.
Sophia asked Austin whether there was any possibility of renewing their relationship from a political standpoint, but the latter flatly refused without giving any room for negotiation.
Sophia had to settle for the second best and tried to promote her daughter Elizabeth, but was also rejected by Wayne on the pretext that she was not his biological daughter.
This seems like the Windsor family is about to withdraw from politics completely!
At least in the Queen's ears, this is what Austin arranged. The Landau family was ready to transfer the house title. He advised the Queen to give up resistance and accept the cruel reality.
"Auston, is there no possibility at all?"
"..."
Auston was speechless. He rejected the princess on behalf of Wayne for the royal family's consideration, but the queen insisted that he had evil intentions...
Forget it, as long as the Queen is happy, he can’t control what Wayne wants to do anyway, so let it be.
"Your Majesty, you can do as you wish. I still say that the Landau family is loyal to the royal family." Austin bowed.
"That's great." Sophia smiled.
In an instant, the two seemed to have returned to the harmonious and trusting state between the monarch and his subjects, but they both knew that nothing could go back to the way it was before, and a thick barrier had been built between them.
The cold moonlight enveloped the sky above the Ministry of Magic headquarters. Upon closer inspection, the thick fog covering the entire Lundan seemed to be much thinner than before.
The subtle changes did not attract much attention, and the wealthy West District, North District and Nelundin continued to prosper.
Deep underground, there is a mysterious space somewhere.
The ancient altar that was once destroyed by the devil's riot is now intact and floating quietly in the air, with the Golden Rule and the Seven Deadly Sins engraved on it.
The reincarnation altar of the Lord of Pride.
The devils from hell can be reincarnated as humans with the help of the altar, and humans can be reincarnated as devils from hell with the help of the altar.
A figure slowly emerged.
The man is dressed like a social elite in a suit, shirt, leather shoes and tie, but his face cannot be looked at directly and his true appearance cannot be seen clearly.
He waved his hand into the void, took out a black book, placed it on the altar, copied the Seven Deadly Sins and wrote the information on the blank pages.
Soon, a new book of hell was generated.
"Frank, right? The evolution of hell you wrote is somewhat interesting, but it's too narrow. If the fusion of the seven devils is considered the ultimate evolution, why don't I just copy the Seven Deadly Sins?"
"I can't blame you. It's the composition of the Seven Demon Kings that caused you to misunderstand..."
"The fusion of the seven demon kings cannot give birth to the God of Hell. The existence of Hell has another meaning!"
"I hope the next person who holds the Book of Hell can give me a surprise..."
The man muttered a few words, waved his hand, and was about to throw the Book of Hell into Lundan, looking for the next lucky person to guide the evolution.
The man stopped with his hand raised in the air.
"Lendam is no longer suitable, and the new holder will end up failing just like Frank did."
After a moment's thought, the man threw the new Book of Hell into the void and sent it to Frank, which was across the sea from Windsor.
The target is Paris, and those who are destined to get it will get it.
"Who will it be this time?"
"Hopefully a clergyman, that would be really interesting."
----
West End Cemetery.
Philomena, dressed in a white dress with a veil covering her face, followed the Death Knight to the tombstone without words. The Death Knight crawled into the coffin, buried in the ground and fell asleep. The high priest noticed that he was following him but did not respond.
The Death Knight's indifference made Philomena suspicious. From being certain that Wayne was the Death Knight at the beginning, she is now half-believing and half-doubting, suspecting that she had guessed wrong.
Based on her understanding of the dead ghost, she should have smiled heartily, forced the beautiful high priest into a corner, and then pretended to do something thrilling.
Nothing happened...
"Am I overthinking it?"
Not far away, the evil dog, the undead warhorse, and the skeleton owl were chatting together.
"Wang Wang!"
"Wang Wang Wang!"
"Ouch?!"
The painting style is very nonsensical, the horse and the owl can actually speak dog language. Philomena stopped and looked into the distance, and saw that the Death Knight's pet treated her as air, and was not worried at all about her picking up the hoe to dig the grave, and she began to waver again.
She had no relationship with the Death Knight, not even an ally, so there must be another reason why he was so polite to her.
So, the dead ghost is buried down there!
Philomena looked coldly at the tombstone without any words, struggling over whether to dig the person out and confront him face to face. She mustered up the courage to raise her hand several times, but finally gave up.
What if she was overthinking it and really dug out the Death Knight? That would be a lot of fun.
The man in white walked away and stopped at the edge of the cemetery. He looked at Wayne walking on the road, snorted coldly, and chased after him.
"Hey, Mina, what a coincidence, you are here for a walk too?" Wayne looked surprised and said it was fate.
Philomena rolled her eyes beautifully and said coldly: "Stop pretending, you are the Death Knight, right?"
In the banquet hall, Sifty said that Wayne had arrived, but she couldn't see him even though she searched the crowd. Then, considering Dark Knight Austin's attitude towards Death Knight and Wayne's appearance in the cemetery, the evidence was conclusive enough to solve the case.
"Don't talk nonsense. I am the successor of the Knight of Nature. How can I be a Knight of Death? If you use your brain, you will know that it is impossible." Wayne sighed, "I know you have big breasts, but I didn't expect you to be so brainless."
"Big breasts don't mean you're stupid, you're just too lazy to care."
Philomena retorted on the spot, glancing at Wayne: "You said you are not a Death Knight, so why are you here?"
"I'm coming after you!"
Wayne said as a matter of course: "It's too dangerous for you to chase the Death Knight alone at night, so I came to find you."
"Well, that's very kind of you."
"Hey, huh!"
You're still panting!
Philomena sneered and raised her hand to grab Wayne by the collar: "Your mother told me that you are the Death Knight!"
"You are the Death Knight."
"..."
Seeing that Wayne refused to admit it, Philomena turned around and walked away. After two steps, she found that Wayne had not caught up with her, so she stopped there in anger.
Wayne scratched his head and came to Philomena. Seeing that she was frowning and glaring, and looked like she would not leave unless he coaxed her, he raised his hand, hooked her slender waist and brought her into his arms, biting her red lips through the white veil.
Philomena struggled for a few times, but was so addicted to the kiss that she soon fell limp in Wayne's arms.
His eyes were blurry and he looked a little absent-minded.
Wayne patted his butt, and Philomena subconsciously reached out to hold the big tree next to her, bent over, lifted her hips, and spread her legs, moving as smoothly as flowing water.
Wayne: (a`a;)
However, there must be a bigger war after the big war, so he will not expose this misunderstanding.
Philomena realized something was wrong after she finished posing. Her ears turned red and she thought it was obscene and stood up quickly.
Seeing Wayne approaching and preparing to fight for real, she quickly pushed him away: "Don't mess around, this is the West District Cemetery, the territory of the Death Knight."
"Fell asleep."
"There are horses and dogs."
"They're all female."
"How do you know so well?"
"Because I am the Death Knight!"
"..."
Philomena rolled her eyes and slapped her evil hand on her chest. She said unhappily, "Why don't you act anymore? It turns out that the Death Knight is also a pervert. I thought a skeleton didn't have human desires."
"Generally speaking, no, but it depends on the person. If it's a beauty like Mina, not to mention the Death Knight, even the Goddess of Death would rise from the coffin." Wayne smiled, held the back of Philomena's hand and kissed it.
"How come you are a Death Knight?"
Philomena asked the biggest question: "You are the successor of the Knight of Nature. I saw you display the elemental truth with my own eyes. Death and nature are opposites. The goddess of death will never choose you. Even if death and nature are a cycle, you..."
"You have no respect for the gods, the goddess of death is crazy... Anyway, it can't be you."
“God doesn’t care!”
Wayne shrugged, held Philomena in his arms, sniffed the fragrance between her hair, raised his eyebrows and said: "To be honest, I am still the successor of Moonlight Knight."
"hehe."
Philomena smiled with her lips folded. She said that nature and death could be crazy, but the moon goddess she believed in would not. She advised Wayne not to talk nonsense, saying that just because someone had big breasts didn't mean she wouldn't care.
"Mina, I really am Moonlight Knight, I swear to the goddess."
"Forget it. If the goddess takes it seriously, I'll have to find another boyfriend."
"You see, if I keep it from you, you'll be unhappy, and if I tell you the truth you won't believe me. It's really difficult for me." "Then just transform yourself, like the Natural Knight did last time. I'll believe you after you transform." Philomena pushed Wayne away and put her hands on his shoulders to give him a chance to prove himself.
"Change if you want."
Wayne inserted one hand into the void and started to pick: "This one is wrong, it's the Elemental Mantra, this one is also wrong, Twilight Despair, this one... is Shadow Nightmare again... Hey, where is the White Night Zhenyan hidden?"
Wayne kept mumbling, but he still couldn't figure out Bai Ye Zhen Yan. Philomena looked at him and laughed: "How about I give you a few more minutes to think about how to make up for this lie?"
"Mina, I'm not lying. I'm the real successor of Moonlight Knight."
Wayne withdrew his hand with a serious face and explained, "I know. It must be that Delain lost Bai Ye Zhen Yan when they were playing cards. When she got angry and overturned the table to take Bai Ye Zhen Yan back, I could transform."
"This reason is ridiculous. Lord Delain is the Moonlight Knight. I've seen her portrait at the church headquarters. She is not a gambler." Philomena laughed out loud and pointed out the ridiculous points one by one.
First of all, the character setting is wrong. Moonlight Knight Draene is recognized as an icy beauty at the church headquarters. It is rumored that she can be admired from a distance but not approached. Anyone who gets close to her will be frozen to death. She is terrifyingly calm and does not get angry out of shame.
Secondly, the loyalty of the Chosen Knight to the Goddess is beyond doubt, and Delain cannot gamble with Bai Ye Zhen Yan in any way.
In the end, the God-chosen Knight used the artifact as a bet. Whoever his opponent was, whoever dared to take the game, even if he won, would not have the courage to take Bai Ye Zhen Yan away.
Philomena, from the perspective of a pure passerby, objectively pointed out three loopholes. The words were so fake that they sounded like they were made up.
"First of all, you also said that you heard about what kind of person Delaine is from hearsay and rumors. You have never met her in person."
Wayne argued one by one: "Secondly, loyalty and betting with artifacts are two different things. There is no contradiction. The last poker partner is even simpler. The Knights of Nature and Sun have the courage to accept Bai Ye Zhen Yan."
Philomena was speechless for a while, then looked at Wayne and said, "Just say this to me, don't say it in front of other goddess believers. You offended the entire Life Alliance with just one sentence. You are amazing."
It's obvious that your idol filter is too heavy!
What's wrong with being addicted to playing cards? Which oracle stipulates that card players cannot become God's Chosen Knights?
Wayne snorted twice: "You have four cards with the changing phases of the moon in your hand. Based on this, it can be proved that goddesses like to play cards, and the chosen knights like to play cards to cater to their beliefs."
Seeing that Wayne was still unwilling to admit defeat, Philomena sneered secretly. Since Wayne brought disgrace upon himself, don't blame her for being cruel.
"Wayne, do you want to make a bet? Bet on whether you are the successor of Moonlight Knight."
"Ah this..."
"I don't dare anymore."
"The odds of winning are so high that it's hard to lose. I don't want to take advantage of you."
Bah, haven’t you taken enough advantage?
Philomena sneered and said, "Stop talking nonsense. I'm happy to lose. Just tell me whether you want to bet or not."
"Come on, I won't lose anyway."
Wayne shrugged. He saw it all. It was Philomena who insisted on sending it. He tried to stop her but failed.
"When we were in the banquet hall, your father Auston told me about the chaotic relationship of the Landau family. You have a fiancée named Veronica, right?"
Why does that bastard Old Deng say everything? Is he proud of being a King?
Just wait, I’ll park Yulia downstairs of your house tonight!
Wayne's heart skipped a beat. Although it was only a matter of time before he was exposed, he had not yet CPUed Philomena in advance. Exposing her now was clearly a way to make a fool of herself.
Okay, okay, you like to laugh, right? Wait until you wake up from the queen’s 3,000 square meter bed, and then we’ll see if you can still laugh.
"Speak up, are you pretending to be dead again?"
"Mina, listen to my explanation!"
"What's there to explain? Just tell me whether you have a fiancée or not!"
"Strictly speaking, there is no engagement for the time being."
"That's right."
Philomena sighed deeply, "You nobles are really good at playing around. Your father told me that although Xifei is not your biological mother, Veronica is your half-sister. He arranged the marriage to protect you and to allow you to legally inherit the family business."
Wayne: (⊙⊙)
Wasn’t this version obsolete? Why is it becoming popular again?
Oh my god, the sun rose from the west, and Old Deng actually gave him an assist!
This one must be returned!
Just wait, I'll wake you up from the Queen's 3,000 square meter bed right away.
"I don't understand the nobles' considerations. They are too vulgar. I am too lazy to understand them. I will not say anything to cancel the engagement. Your Landau family has risked extinction and spent decades seeking the throne. Victory is at hand. I cannot let the years of forbearance and blood and tears go to waste because of my selfishness."
Philomena looked at Wayne helplessly: "I'll take a step back. The engagement doesn't have to be cancelled, but you can't mess around with your sister. Let's make a bet on whether you are the Moonlight Knight, okay?"
"Mina, I really am the heir to Moonlight Knight."
"Still trying to make excuses. Do you like your sister so much?"
"Okay then, let's make a bet. Who asked me to follow your lead in everything?"
Wayne sighed. He was determined to give it to her for free and no one could stop him. What could he do but bear the grievance alone.
He raised his hands and held the beauty in his arms, winking at her to indicate that they would spend the night at the high priest's manor.
"I'm not in the mood tonight. When I think about you being a Death Knight and engaged to someone else, I..." Philomena tilted her head and looked at Wayne with a very complicated expression.
"Then I'll go?"
"Hey, come home with me."
Philomena snorted coldly. Just because she was not in the mood didn't mean that she would call it quits tonight. She still had to make the appointment. Even if it was just to keep an eye on Wayne and prevent him from going home and messing around with his sister, she had to make the appointment tonight.
----
10 month 3 day.
Landau Manor, study.
Five days have passed since Douglas' rebellion. Let's not talk about how Wayne has been enjoying himself during these five days. Auston has been very busy and looks a lot thinner.
"Auston, you've lost weight."
Wayne sat on the sofa playing with the ancient silver coin and said unhappily: "I know you want to stabilize the queen, but you are not me. You must be moderate in your life, otherwise your body can let you go, and your teacher will not let you go."
Auston had a gloomy face and said nothing. He had heard too many similar pointing and criticizing. No one dared to say anything openly, but undercurrents were surging in private, and everyone teased him for staying up late to work overtime at the Ministry of Magic headquarters.
The Prince and the Queen are so loving.
The next king will be born next year!
What, Edward and Elizabeth aren't Alston's children?
After the banquet that night, Auston's power increased from being a big shot in London to being a big shot in Buckingham Palace.
Although there was no obvious transfer of power, anyone with a discerning eye, especially the Tulip family, could see that the Queen was transferring her power step by step.
Now the power is shared with Austin. After a while, the host and guest will switch places and it will be Austin's turn to share the power with the Queen.
The Tulip family knew very well that the royal family was determined to centralize power. They had been unable to resist before, and now someone more powerful had come, making them even less able to resist.
If you don't want to run into a Death Knight while walking on the road at night, be decent and hand over the family interests in your hands as soon as possible.
Like the Boswell and Wilson families who were the most lively before, Barney and Rupert were like eggplants hit by frost, wilted and without any spirit.
Not only did they hand over all the power delegated by the royal family, they also contributed financial and material resources with the strength of their family, vowed to defend the dignity of the royal family to the death, and strived to charge to the front line to win the war for the king.
The two surrendered too early and bowed to Douglas when the situation was not yet clear. It is not surprising that they ended up like this. Other Tulip families followed suit and offered their huge fortunes and pledged their loyalty to the king.
Those who do not know the truth and see this scene will definitely feel that Windsor has changed. It is no longer the island country with crazy internal friction. The monarch and his subjects are in harmony, and this war is a sure win.
Of course, paying the money is paying the money, and power is power, but it does not affect these bad people from spreading gossip in private.
The Landau family is paying taxes again tonight!
Austin insisted on tax evasion, but he did not evade taxes. The Queen collected taxes for many years, and Windsor had a second prince.
Douglas died after all, and the time of death was set at the time when he died of illness that year. This was at Austin's request, and a gag order was issued to preserve some dignity for the royal family and the queen.
The prince is a devil and almost killed the royal family. If the news gets out, it will bring shame to the royal family. It would be better to let Douglas die in a grand funeral.
Good for everyone!
The Tulip family had no idea what Austin was thinking. They only knew that he was in power and no longer had to sneak around in the Queen's bedroom to make decisions.
"You've caused me so much trouble!"
Auston stared at Wayne expressionlessly, trying to imagine his chances of success in pulling out Twilight Despair.
"How could that be? Our family is thriving and far ahead of all the Tulip families. Even if they were tied together, they would not be a match for the Landau family. As the head of the family, you should be happy."
Wayne looked loyal: "You have achieved the most among all the generations of the Landau family. You will definitely be remembered by the successors of the family."
Auston sighed, feeling bitter and not knowing what to say.
Queen Sophia has been particularly honest these days, handing over power without reservation. She gave too much, which made Austin busy and he hasn't had a good rest for several nights.
Austin suspected that Sophia did it on purpose to retaliate against the Landau family and the four churches for seizing power. You want power, right? Okay, okay, I'll give it all to you. See if you can bear it!
In addition, Sophia has been wearing very cool clothes these days, and her words and actions seem to be looking for the feeling of first love.
There is no love, only politics, which makes Austin feel extremely heartbroken. The queen in his heart is destroyed.
Whenever he thought of this, Auston wanted to pick up his sword and stab Wayne to death.
It’s a pity that I can’t beat them, so I can only relieve stress during fantasy time.
He looked tired and said weakly: "The Queen and I have discussed the future bloodline of the royal family. We want to introduce fresh blood from the Landau family to improve the next generation."
"What do you mean, she wants Veronica to condescend to marry the prince?"
Wayne raised his eyebrows and calculated with his fingers. The queen had already been killed, at three o'clock tonight.
"No, the queen wants you to help the princess improve her offspring."
"..."
Wayne blinked: "Well, what, didn't you explain it?"
"I explained it, but she didn't believe it."
Auston collapsed on the sofa and said listlessly, "The princess is Juno. You have seen her. She will be an excellent queen in the future. I hope she will not let you down?"
"Wronged."
Wayne curled his lips and said, "You may not believe it, but I have little interest in princesses and have never considered putting myself in a difficult position."
"The princess also has a beautiful fiancée, so that counts as two. Isn't that unfair?"
"..."
