I must draw my sword immediately!

Chapter 111 Burying Perinoa on Grave Day
Listening to Sir Miles's story,

Suya recalled a story that Meryl had once told her.
Fifteen years ago, a red dragon was resurrected in the basement of the royal capital, Winchester. King Uther led his army to fight it. In the battle, most of the royal capital was destroyed, and a fire that spread throughout the capital burned for half a month, killing nearly a million people.

According to what Miles and Gerry Freyt just said...
King Perinoa and King Euthyne conspired to sell Britain in exchange for things that satisfied their selfish desires. This "selling out" probably refers to the sale of Britain's spiritual veins.
The Age of Gods, also known as the Mystic Age.

The earth is dotted with spiritual veins that magicians call 'Great Sources'. These spiritual veins ensure bountiful harvests, favorable weather, and the cultivation of higher-level materials to meet the daily needs of advanced professionals.
Once these spiritual veins disappear, Britain's land simply cannot support its hundreds of millions of inhabitants.
then,

A disaster known as the 'Infertile Land' is about to strike.

Previously, what maintained Britain's mystique was what they called 'dragon's blood that spread across the earth'.
Could it be the red dragon that was slaughtered fifteen years ago?

Thinking of this, Suya felt a chill run down her spine and her neck, and her determination to run away became even stronger.

But for now, he still needed to appease these two knightly followers who were looking at him with increasingly strange expressions.
He immediately asked:
"So, what do you plan to do?"

Upon hearing the question, Sir Miles first looked at Gerry Freyt, and after she nodded,
He looked at Suya and solemnly introduced her:

"The Cador family was the power left behind by the Duke of Cornwall who died in battle. In order to survive, they had no choice but to engage in itinerant trading."

“We traveled between King Perinoa, the Church, and Jerusalem, and thus learned many secrets.”

"Although our past is not glorious, and we were even forced to collude with traitors, in the face of such a momentous event concerning the safety of the entire kingdom,"

"Please believe that we still possess the heart of a knight!"

At this moment, Gerry Freyt took a deep breath and said in a low voice:

"According to the clues and intelligence we have obtained, the newly enthroned ruler Morgan le Fay disappeared in St. Stephen's Cathedral, and King Perinoa is inextricably linked to this."

"In other words, it was King Perinoa who betrayed Morgan le Fay."

"Furthermore, after King Perinoa dismissed the knights from St. Stephen's Cathedral, he immediately contacted the Church—"

"They decided to continue the royal selection ceremony, at least to select a king who could inherit the throne of Britain."

"That is to say,"

"King Perinoa likely wanted to continue cooperating with the Church and, on the day of the royal election, restore the old policies he and King Uther had established."

At this point, Gerry Freyt's expression hardened, and she resolutely stated:

"We must not stand idly by and watch him turn Britain into a barren land!"

"We originally planned to assassinate King Perinoa in three days, but now, with your involvement—"

Suya looked at her and vaguely felt like she had become a pig in the wind.

Then he heard Gerry Freyt say solemnly:
"The selection process will begin on Friday, which is five days from now!"

"We have decided to postpone the plan by two days, using the Carroll family and all the businesses in Winchester to build momentum for you and fully support you in defeating all the other princes of Britain on the day of the royal selection and ascending the throne!"

"And after the royal election, in the name of the King, that is, in your name, gather all the men of ambition throughout Britain,"

"On Grave Day, six days from now—"

"Bury Perinoa!"

Listening to this exciting declaration, it seemed as if the "Revere the Emperor, Expel the Barbarians" movement was about to begin.

As their revered 'king,' Suya seemed to have no reason to refuse, but at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
Gerry Freyt and the others seemed to have completely ignored the threat from the King of Conquerors. Not understanding the reason behind this, he couldn't help but ask:

"Don't you know that the Conqueror King is about to breach the Golden Iron Curtain?"

"Oh, so that's what you care about."

Gerry Freyt suddenly realized, and then smiled slightly.
"As long as King Perinoa is prevented from continuing his old ways, the mysteries of this land will continue."

"Then, the Holy Lance Rungomminiad, which guards the capital, will be able to stand on the earth and receive an almost unlimited power supply." "The Holy Lance is the Pillar of Light that holds the world together. To pull out the Holy Lance means to tear the entire world apart."

She chuckled and shook her head, saying...
"How could anyone possibly possess such power?"

The conversation continued at this point.
Suya has obtained the information he wanted and has a new understanding of the power structure within the capital.

At this moment, Gerry Freyt immediately stood up and spoke to Sir Miles beside her:

"In that case, we should not delay."

"Sir Miles, I'd like to trouble you to make arrangements with the Royal Guard. I'll head to the Merchant Guild immediately to arrange activities to promote Sua."

Then, she looked at Suya, took off a heraldic ring from her index finger and handed it to her; it had a bright rose design on it.

"I will come to see you tomorrow."

"If you need money, take this ring to any of the Cardor family's gold shops in the capital to withdraw funds. Also, you can get a free meal at any establishment in the capital by showing this ring."

#
Under the night sky of the capital,

The Cador family, a behemoth that controlled the lives of everyone in the capital, from clothing and food to housing and transportation, was quickly put into operation under Gerry Freyt's orders.

Masters, semi-heroes, and even heroes began to dance around a name called 'Suya'.

Even after leaving the Winchester Casino, Sua was still somewhat dazed.
Under the manipulation of fate, he easily gained cheating abilities that he could never have dreamed of in his previous life.
It's like typing a line of code out of thin air.
Show me the money.

Then a beautiful and cheerful girl, as lovely as a cosmos flower, would approach you with her wallet, as if you were looking down on her if you didn't use her money.

but,

Despite winning millions of pounds at the casino, she also helped Mary get back the dress she had always dreamed of.

He casually pulled out a wallet containing 10000 gold pounds and handed it to Gawain, smiling nonchalantly at the latter's apprehensive gaze, saying, "Keep the change, this is your tuition fee."

They even learned the inherent abilities that only heroes could master with ease.
however,
Suya, however, did not feel happy.

He felt a strange, inexplicable feeling.

It was simply because the thought of becoming stronger arose in his mind that he obtained the inherent ability that only heroes possess, in just a few words from Gawain;
It was simply because I had this feeling that I was a little short of money that I went to places where I could potentially get money, following this subconscious thought that surfaced on the surface.
Then, they immediately had more money than they could ever spend in their lifetime.

But Suya knew very well that he wasn't in such a hurry to do anything; he didn't even know how to use so much money all at once.

This process is like drawing a bow and shooting an arrow. Before Suya could even take out the bow and draw the string, the arrow had already flown out on its own and hit the bullseye perfectly.

This bizarre turn of events, which occurred before the process, made him hesitant to even consider what he might gain next.
Suya frowned deeply, and with utmost caution, slowly walked back to the tavern street under the cover of night in the royal capital.
Just now, while passing by a tavern

"Hey~, kid, watch where you're going, you're going to step on me!"

A weary, bitter voice suddenly came from beneath him. Suya abruptly looked down and saw—

A disheveled knight, lying by the roadside, wearing tattered armor and reeking of alcohol, raised his arm to stop the other man's foot from being stepped on.
The disheveled knight, his face covered in a thick beard, glanced at Suya casually, then an amused expression appeared on his face.

Then, he raised his nostrils, sniffed the air like a dog, and asked:

"Oh, you seem to be very rich?"

"That's it."

"Then do you know how to spend money?"

Suya immediately shook her head. "I don't know."

The down-on-his-luck knight chuckled, leaning on his sword as he scrambled to his feet, his movements so slow and clumsy they hardly resembled those of a knight.
"Okay, then, you buy me a drink, and I'll teach you how to spend money!"
