Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 183: 1 Nothing

In the dead silence, Thales quietly looked at the helpless, helpless guard on the ground.

Looking at these desperate men who are about to fall apart.

Thinking.

"Why."

Barney slumped on his knees, stiff and unconscious.

"Father?"

He stared at Naki dullly, but he seemed to be looking at a stranger:

"Why?"

"Why does he treat me this way?"

Except for Nakey, almost everyone turned their faces, leaving only Belletti and Nye, equally shocked and speechless.

"Don't you really know?"

Naki asked back, sneered sarcastically:

"So you live like a child in Fuxing Palace. You don't know anything, don't care about anything, just want to be a loyal and stupid chess piece?"

No one speaks.

Only the fast rope whispered in Thales’ ears: "The situation is not good...I think they all forgot to escape, to find a way out..."

Thyls shook his head deeply, thoughtfully:

"It's not that they forgot to escape, they just...no longer care."

Quick rope is taken aback:

"What about us?"

But Thales still shook his head seriously and ignored him.

Anxiously looking forward, the fast rope scratched his head.

"Why, father."

But Barney is still expressionless like a puppet, as if speaking to the air:

"Why would he do this?"

Naki looked at Barney bitterly and snorted.

Semir looked at Barney with a heavy look, and made a fist gently.

"You are really a stranger, Barney," Nakey looked at the broken Barney, his face showed the ease after revenge, but his voice was still sad:

"You are from a noble birth, but you have abandoned your family and bloodliness as a noble existence, Quill Barney."

"But in fact, if it weren't for him, if you were not from the Barney family, one of the seven servants of the star, you wouldn't even have the chance to enter the guard."

Najihan said:

"Like all of us."

The noble existence that has abandoned the family and bloodliness...

Barney's lips flicked.

As soon as this statement came out, whether it was Belletti, Nye, the downcast Tardine and Brie, and even the trembling Cannon, they all bowed their heads.

Only Semir, he still stared at Naki motionlessly.

But Thales felt something, he stepped forward subconsciously.

"Why?"

The boy's sudden speech attracted everyone's attention:

"If you don't want to tell him, then tell me."

"Tell Can Star the last bloodline."

Thyls' words floated in the dungeon, and even the fast rope was taken aback.

Naki was stunned by these words. He looked at him as though he had met the boy before him again.

As if to recognize something from the other's solemn face.

"Hey, these lunatics are enough to cause headaches," the fast rope pressed on Thales's shoulder and whispered anxiously: "We should concentrate on finding a way out now..."

"What else do you want to do?"

But Thales just took a breath and firmly grasped the hand of the fast rope:

"Like you said, find our way of life."

Quick rope is one of those dumbfounded.

Tyles looked at Nakey again, his eyes rolled around the key in his hand.

"Tell me, why did Barney's father and you, and even Sackel, do that?"

Thyls frowned:

"In other words, the king of Changzhi, Eddie II, what else did he do besides what Saker said, the so-called Alliance of the Three Plagues?"

Naki's eyes gradually became confused.

Little Barney looked up blankly, but only repeated the sentence:

"Why, father."

Naki looked at everyone in a daze, but found that many people had looked away, only Semir was staring at him closely.

Finally, he figured out something and chuckled relievedly:

"You are right, Your Majesty, the tragedy of the year was far more than the struggle between your Majesty and the traitor, not just the game of loyalty and betrayal, and not just the hostility between the stars and the world."

"Neither natural disasters nor rebels, the chaos in the kingdom back then, of course, has a cause."

Tyles' brows tightened.

"The penalty knight thought that the king was confused by some legendary monster, and felt that some people were plotting to ruin the kingdom, but that was all his wishful thinking."

Naki returned to the state of no one else, as if seeing the past:

"Because Sacuel is just an antique surname that has been in decline for a thousand years, and there is no castle fief, so he is too naive, he can't feel it."

"We can't feel our despair."

Naki trembled when he said this.

Taldin on the other side sighed softly.

Thyls's heart moved:

"Desperate?"

Naki took a breath, recalled the worst years, and smiled sadly:

"Back then, there were countless rumors circulating in the Fuxing Palace. Not everyone knew the taboo of the king and disaster, but there was one thing that everyone knew very well."

Many people's breathing becomes disordered.

Little Barney on his knees slowly focused his eyes.

"What is that?" Thales listened solemnly.

I saw Naji turn his head, in a daze:

"In those years, Your Majesty wanted to make a difference: He gave many orders."

Make a difference.

Many commands.

Tyles' heart tightened.

For some reason, he suddenly thought of Old Crow's class.

"So we... Whether it is Belletti, Tardin, Barney, who are directly under the royal family, the upstart "Star Seven Servant" who has been in the era of Xianjun for a century, or the so-called Talun, Karabyyan, etc. We have seen and experienced the thirteen noble families, up to the six founding giants such as Aarond and Tebak."

Little Barney recovered from the blow and looked at Naki dumbfounded.

I saw Naji sweep every guard brother, quietly and authentically:

"With every move of your majesty..."

"The more sad the day, the more hopeless the future, our future as aristocrats is even more bleak."

Thyls was taken aback.

Taldin's face changed slightly, and he stopped talking.

But without waiting for him to say anything, Thales, who had a hunch, hurriedly urged:

"What happened?"

Naki raised his godless eyes, shook his head with a smile, his tone was full of sorrow: "I don't know..."

"First of all, the land quantity order, so my family's fiefs have drastically reduced..."

"The farmers on the farmland moved to the city because of the household counting order..."

He whispered, eyes psychedelic.

"The bureaucrats of the lord lost all their prestige after the decree was issued..."

"Our lives are bankrupt due to taxation orders..."

"In the territories and castles, we had to disband the servant army in order to cut expenses. Mothers and sisters had to sell jewelry to supplement the family..."

The expressions of the guard prisoners are getting worse.

Naki sneered:

"The irony is that the nouveau riche with mud legs can get a life comparable to ours with money, but it is illegal for us to even raise taxes on our own fief to tide over the difficulties..."

"There is also a **** naming order, which clearly distinguishes our titles and positions..."

"And finally, the relocation order following the general edict..."

Naki shook his head ironically:

"The six giants and thirteen noble families, maybe their family has a big business, can withstand the setbacks and losses, and can withstand the king's sanctions, but for us families who are high and low..."

He looked at the void madly:

"It's like overnight, the whole world has changed-the happiness and stability you once took for granted have all turned into disasters and turmoil."

"Can you imagine?"

"At this time, from a noble background, it doesn't sound so good anymore."

The happiness and stability that we have taken for granted have turned into disasters and turmoil...

Thyls froze.

Naki spoke slowly, but no one interrupted him.

His tone is quite self-defeating and exhausted, and Thales's face sinks every time he says a word.

Assassinations, foreign enemies, wars, conspiracies...

Once, he thought this was everything that the Scarlet Year would reveal, but now it seems...

Thyls thought of the old Crow Hexer.

And a lesson he taught himself.

Win and lose.

Enemies and friends.

[Do not underestimate the war itself-it is far less simple than you think. It is not a win or lose, a profit or a price, and a survival or death game. 】

[The Scarlet Year. 】

[In addition to winning or losing, what angle and to what extent should we evaluate this tragic year full of war? 】

At this moment, the teenager was suddenly moved by it,

The Year of Blood is more than just a war, a conflict, a contradiction, more than just a grudge between the two emperors and the disasters.

Everything is integrated in the melting pot of the Star Kingdom, and there is no escape.

Kings, nations, nobles, disasters, politics, they are all twisted together, in this furnace, they influence each other, are entangled with each other, and are difficult to disassemble.

Thyls also thought of the star "Sage King" who made Lombard very fearful.

Mindis III.

A strange suspicion filled Thales's mind, but he was quickly shaken out of his mind.

"I used to be very surprised. At the moment when people's hearts are distracted and chaos will arise, why are as powerful as the six guardian dukes and as strong as the thirteen noble families. They swallowed their breath and silently accepted the orders of their majesty."

"But after listening to Sacker's words, I seem to understand," Naki curled his mouth and gave Thales a bitter and hopeless smile:

"When you see that standing behind your Majesty is the horror that has been passed down from generation to generation in the family, maybe you don't have much choice."

Naki's expression dimmed, making Thales' heart more uncomfortable.

"I dare not and cannot judge your Majesty. After all, he is the king of the stars. I must obey whatever he says. What's more, he still has such an irresistible power..."

The more he continued, the lower his mood, but the more painful his tone.

This made Thales lower his head subconsciously.

"But when I returned to my dilapidated home, I saw my wife selling off my dowry, my son was starving, my sister who was to be married had a yellowish face, and my lord and father on the hospital bed borrowed money from the merchant while being useless. Stick to the last noble dignity of the family..."

Naki's words are full of pain, making many guard prisoners look strange.

Thyls didn't speak.

Naki recovered and looked at Thales again, his eyes vicissitudes of life.

"Since I became sensible, my father taught me this way: The Nakey family has been granted a fief since the era of the wise king. We are loyal to the Canstar family, because we know that our position comes from the power of the royal family. Standing with the kingship is a symbol of our loyalty, but..."

Like a drowning man looking at the last straw, Naki looked at Thales eagerly and eagerly, the color in his eyes was like the gray before death:

"Tell me, Your Majesty, shouldn’t the king defend the interests and dignity of his vassals and protect the abundance and happiness of his subjects? Why the more we are loyal to His Majesty and the Kingdom, the end we get The more..."

Naki's tone was stagnant, and he felt lost and confused:

"Is it because I don’t love my kingdom enough, or my kingdom loves me not enough?"

At that moment, Thales opened his mouth in a sad mood.

But he couldn't say anything.

At that moment, all the guards in the dungeon were silent.

Naki snorted, and his whole body was filled with the relief of abandoning everything:

"So, in the day-to-day confusion and heavy despair, when someone promises us hope, someone tells us that all this is just the moment of the king’s faintness, but the ghosts of the kings in the court, And all we need to do is to wait silently..."

He didn't go on.

On the other side, Cannon resumed sobbing lowly, Bree stopped groaning, Tardin was lost, and Beletti and Nye, who were uninformed, were stunned.

Only Barney and Semuel, one who is obsessed with what he can understand, is holding a weapon through gritted teeth.

"Tell me, Your Majesty, on one side is a hopeful wife and a weak son, clinging to the old elders, proud family glory... On the other side, is the gentle and benevolent King, the ruthless king's decree, The guard's oath engraved with life..."

Naki distorted his face, and his eyes were moist:

"Who should I be loyal or betray?"

Thyls closed his eyes lightly.

"Father," Little Barney pressed his head painfully: "Father..."

"No~IndoMTL.com~you...no, all of this is too unfair..."

Little Barney's groan spreads low in the air.

Plop.

On the other side, Tardin knelt on the ground, covering his face, his shoulders shaking slightly.

Naki gave a nervous laugh, and raised the key in his hand:

"If you are loyal to your majesty and the stars, it means betraying your family and your beloved wife and children..."

"Tell me, Your Majesty, what should I do so that it is not betrayal, and how can I be loyal?"

Tyles exhaled hard.

He was speechless.

Naki looked at the prince and smiled.

"It's okay, because I finally understand, look at what we are now..."

He swept over everyone, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

"Whether it is Jane, Luna, my beloved wife and children..."

"And my majesty, my oath..."

Naki looked at the empty void dumbly:

"Regardless of loyalty or betrayal..."

"We all have nothing."

At this moment, Thales felt that the stagnation and solemnity of the air in the dungeon was unprecedented.

With a deep breath of life.

At this moment, a hollow and dull voice rang out of thin air with the same pain and hesitation.

"Enough."

The sound echoed in the dimly lit room.

Everyone trembled.

In the other direction, the penalty knight Sackel weakly supported the wall, struggling to walk unsteadily, standing in the shadow outside the storage room, his eyes were illusory and his voice was intermittent:

"Nakey, enough."

He is painful and authentic:

"Don't...do it anymore."

?? Calm, I went to a far door more than a week ago, nothing more.

?

????
