Sinmonger Chapter 20: Puppet (Part 1)

The man sitting on the throne lowered his eyes and whispered, "I've been waiting for you. .+?(.+bsp;s*"

Klauser pushed open the door of the main hall and walked all the way through the spacious hall, his father said as he walked down the steps in front of the throne.

"It seems to be very noisy outside..." Wittstock V raised his eyelids and said, "Why even the island is tilted, did the Heaven Guards encounter any powerful enemies?"

"Please rest assured, royal father, they have their own discretion." Krause replied, he knew about what happened outside, and he was very clear, and told an ordinary person like Wittstock V. Those didn't make any sense at all, so I'd better just mention it in one sentence, and then change the subject: "It's the father, you, there are still a few hours before the ceremony, why did you come here so early?"

"Can I still sleep peacefully on the couch at this moment?" The Fifth replied, "But... can the ceremony really be held smoothly?"

"It must be held." Krause said firmly: "And let people all over the world know and see their new emperor."

"Haha...Okay." The fifth smiled, not a happy smile, but a wry smile. He said, "At this moment, there are only you and me in this hall. I have something to say that must be before handing over the throne to you. tell you."

Clauzer casually raised his hand and moved his fingers, and the door of the hall behind him was closed from both sides with a bang. Every inch of the floor tiles is a magnificent hall. Naturally, it will not be equipped with a device such as an electronic door. The hall door is a traditional style, carefully carved white wooden arch, so Krause only needs to control it for a while. A breeze is enough to shut it down.

"Please give instructions to the emperor." Krause's words were still humble, but there was not much respect in his tone.

After hearing the words, the fifth generation brewed for a long time and made great determination, and then spit out this shocking sentence from his mouth: "Klausser, you are not my son."

Clauze's expression changed slightly: "Father, are you accusing my mother of being unfaithful to you?" His voice showed a kind of displeasure, and the address of the emperor changed from "you" to about you". obviously. It is absolutely intolerable for Krause to slander his mother's reputation: "When I was young, it was because I was different. Those who attacked and slandered my mother for various purposes had the capital out of nothing. Injustice. Did you, the royal father, personally direct the scene of the test and stop their mouths? I thought you always believed her."

"You misunderstood. Of course I believe her..." Wittstock V's expression is complex, he has an unforgettable face with shallow eye sockets, but deep eyes, elegant Hebrew nose. The lower jaw is straight and not protruding, the lips are very thin, coupled with the broad forehead and the short hair that is as soft and slender as spider silk, people can feel that this is a weak and sensitive person at a glance, and a slight change in expression on his face makes it appear Very obvious.

"It's not just that I'm not related to you by blood." The fifth continued: "She's not your biological mother either."

A look of surprise finally appeared in Krause's eyes: "What did you say?"

"You should have noticed, too, you and I, the other princes, and...she are not alike." The fifth said: "That test. It was really just a play, and the results were all It was arranged in advance, and there was no need for identification at all, because I knew from the beginning that you were not my son."

"Impossible!" Krause raised his voice, but he didn't continue. He could not find any objective basis for denying the other party's remarks.

The fifth continued to narrate: "The relationship between you and me is very weak, there is no father-son relationship. And now... you are the real ruler of the empire, no matter how you think of me. I can understand. But... the mother-son relationship between you and Nina is undoubtedly real. So please take a look at your mother's face and listen to what I have to say..." He raised his head, and his brows were full of grief: "Nina is She came from a commoner. When I married her, I experienced many obstacles. After she entered the palace, she was also questioned. Other concubines and the forces behind them spared no effort to target Nina, and even endangered her life. I thought… …As long as we have children, we can keep her safe and maintain her position, which is the beginning of tragedy.”

Clauzer couldn't hear any sign of lying in V's words, but it made him mess up.

"My child and I actually died shortly after birth. Even if the palace has the best medical conditions in the world, the child's fragile life cannot be saved." The fifth sighed deeply: "This matter was kept secret by me, and even Nina didn't know about it. All the insiders, except myself, have shut up forever with this secret many years ago." He looked at Crowe Ze: "You... just an abandoned baby who was found in the delivery room of the hospital. There is no way to find out your bloodline. Although I also tried to find your biological parents later, but unfortunately, there was no result. Maybe you are someone The illegitimate child abandoned by a woman spoiled by the nobility, or the impulsive product of two young people who lack responsibility, who knows, these things happen every day in the world, don't they?

It's fate, you were born on the same day as my dead child, so you took his place. I know very well that I can only do this, and I have to do it. The death of the prince will be made a big fuss by some people with intentions, which is likely to put Nina in a more dangerous situation in the palace. And I'm even more worried about how the news of the loss of her youngest child will affect Nina's mental state. "

In just a few minutes from the beginning of the narration of the fifth, the entire floating island experienced at least three other huge earthquakes that could be clearly felt. At this time, the sound of running footsteps suddenly came from the corridor outside the hall. A janitor came to the door, but he did not dare to break in, but shouted at the door: "Your Majesty! Your Highness! Unidentified intruders appeared in the palace, the imperial city has been destroyed in many places, and the fire It's spreading, please..."

"Go!" Krause interrupted the guard with a roar, "No one is allowed to approach here!"

"But... Your Highness... The fire..." The imperial guard wanted to continue, because the situation was indeed quite serious, the fire had already burned to the periphery of this palace, and could invade at any time.

"Fuck me!" For some reason, Krause jumped into a rage, and immediately roared again.

After a few seconds, the footsteps of the janitor can be heard away.

The fifth continued his narration: "I kept this secret and killed everyone who might have leaked it. I want things to calm down like this, as if you were my son and Nina's biological son. Well, as long as it makes her happy. Keeps her safe."

The fifth voice trembled: "But... destiny played a joke on me again."

Clauzer's tone also showed obvious mood swings: "Is it because I was right..."

"I don't know if it's luck or misfortune, huh..." The fifth smiled bitterly: "When you were three or four years old, your hair started to turn blue. I knew that Nina was going to suffer again." He suddenly Yang Tian laughed loudly: "It's ironic... I have so many unreal sons, but the only one I picked up was a genius with extraordinary talent." He smiled bitterly: "So much so that no one believes that you are My own."

The fifth sighed: "Please allow me to ask for your forgiveness for Nina... all these years. You must be confused... After I proved your identity through the so-called 'identification', why did she I still chose to commit suicide." The fifth paused for a few seconds before saying: "Because the result is no longer important. As a woman and mother, she has always noticed in her heart that her child is already dead. That farce deceived She lives in the world, but can't hide it from her. She can't continue to deceive herself. After all, you are not her own flesh and blood, and she can't continue to endure the days of facing you every day, which will only make her miss the lost child even more. So... ...she chose to die to escape."

The fifth lowered his head: "Please forgive Nina, forgive this woman with a miserable life, she is by no means selfish, just a pitiful person. If you want to blame, blame me. If not me. She... You and I don't have to bear these pains."

Klauser was silent. In fact, according to his scheming, long before the other party finished speaking, he had already seen the whole thing, including the emotional reasons. But he is a person after all. All human beings have feelings, and only the machine can receive all the information entered. But people can't, people have to accept these things. It takes time.

The flame gradually penetrated the barrier of the outer wall, penetrated through the gap, and began to burn the carpets and accessories around the hall. From the stained glass at the height, it can be seen that black smoke is billowing outside, and the lighting facilities are partially The parts have stopped working, and the air circulation system is no longer able to stop the infiltration of smoke.

After a long time, Krause finally spoke, "Why do you acquiesce to my behavior for the past six months? Do you want me, a person not related to you, to become the emperor of the empire?" He pressed: "Just Because of your guilt towards my mother... towards Nina?"

"In my heart, at least half of it is for this reason..." said the fifth.

Klauser frowned slightly and asked again, "How about half of that?"

"Maybe you won't understand after saying it. The other half of the reason is for a transaction... It was a game someone played with me, he..." Fifth's words were forever choked in his throat, because When he said this, from behind him, somewhere in the hall, a bullet flew out and hit him in the head.

The gun went off, ordinary ****, ordinary bullets.

But the moment the gunman pulled the trigger ~IndoMTL.com~ this gun, this bullet, became extraordinary.

Because the emperor of the empire, Witstock V, died by this shot.

The fire around the main hall grew stronger and stronger, the flames mercilessly destroyed this magnificent palace, and the smoke began to affect people's vision and breathing.

Clauze stood dumbfounded in the hall, looking at the king on the throne whose temples had been pierced by bullets, he couldn't believe it was true.

At this time, behind the long purple-gold curtain hanging down to the ground, a man in a black casual suit stepped out. He walked briskly, with a nonchalant expression on his face, walked to the throne, raised his gun again, He fired five more shots at the chest of the already dead emperor, consuming the shuttle of bullets.

Tian put away a gun, watching the empty hall is burning, the fire has gradually surrounded the place. Only a young man with blue hair was still standing at the foot of the steps, with a look of astonishment on his face.

"What are you doing standing stupidly?" Tianyi asked: "Do you want to perish with this city?"(To be continued..)
