A king of a different surna?
Duge looked toward Prince Nelson.
Even now, do you still think of luring with fantasies, so naively?
Duke Linqi looked at Nelson as if he was looking at an idiot.
Prince Nelson was completely oblivious to what was wrong, and with a slight smile, he continued to grasp at opportunities, "Holley, killing will bring you no benefit and will only incite the wrath of my father, leading to war. But if you let go, you will have the identity of a legitimate king of a different surna, you could easily obtain everything you desire, as well as my friendship..."
"Prince Nelson, I am not fighting for personal gain, I am fighting for justice and fairness. For the sake of gain, to abandon my convictions and to cooperate with soone of despicable character would leave restless," Duge said with righteousness, paying no mind to Nelson’s shitty expression.
"Just yesterday in jail, I ca to understand a truth, it is better to seek with integrity than to sche with crookedness. Nelson, when you truly comprehend my beliefs and abandon your petty and calculating ways, you will have the right to speak to as an equal.
What you ought to do right now is to confess your sins to the public and cleanse your soul step by step..."
"..." Prince Nelson’s mouth twitched violently, "Holley, doing this will offend all the nobles, without their help, even if you defeat Duke Linqi, you won’t be able to control his territories."
"Nelson, they have already agreed to help clear my na!" Duge smiled, "I am a forgiving person and will give everyone a chance to reform. They will sincerely help manage the territories."
"Yes, Prince Nelson, we will help King Holley manage the land and govern the country," said the very active Earl, "Following such a noble and upright ruler is an honor for ."
"I feel the sa," echoed the others.
"You see," Duge smiled faintly, straightening up, "Nelson, don’t be so obstinate. Even those who are extrely evil have a sliver of kindness, a touch of softness. Reveal this kindness, and walk down the streets where people no longer look at you with fear but greet you with the most sincere smiles, where children are willing to give you the candy in their hands. Wouldn’t such a life be good?"
Foolish and naive!
Nelson thought contemptuously. This world is inherently dark. With such people under your command, sooner or later you’ll be devoured to the bone...
Duke Linqi looked at Nelson, shaking his head secretly. So naive, you can’t just listen to what he says, you need to look at what he has done!
"Prince Nelson, we don’t have much ti," Duge frowned slightly, "If you remain deluded, then use your blood to wash away your sins!"
Nelson’s complexion changed, and he hastily said, "Holley, I am willing to testify for you..."
"Very well, Your Highness," Duge looked at him with a smile, "According to the plan Duke Linqi and I concocted, you played the most disgraceful role in this entire affair..."
...
The area before the guillotine was packed with people.
Everyone was anticipating the beheading of the notorious scumbag Holley.
A farr with a limp looked toward the guillotine with clenched teeth, his gaze cold and his fists tightly clenched.
Next to him was a pitiful mother and her child who cast hopeful glances behind the guillotine, yearning for the appearance of that scumbag.
Not far from them, a young woman with her face covered by a veil was also looking in the direction of the guillotine.
Her face was concealed, but the cover did not hide the ugly scars between her brows. Her eyes were filled with hatred, mixed with a trace of pain and relief.
Among the crowd.
There were many others like them, all having suffered at the hands of Holley...
...
"Jack, that scumbag is finally going to die."
"Yes, I’ve finally waited for this day. Once his head is chopped off, I want to stomp hard on his body to vent the frustration accumulated over so many years."
"I’m afraid that’s unlikely. They won’t let you desecrate a body; even in death, that scumbag is a noble."
"But his family has clearly been exiled."
"The nobles want to maintain their dignity. They’re afraid that one day, they too will be sent to the guillotine. To protect soone’s body is to protect themselves."
"Did you hear? That scumbag Holley was actually a good person, he possessed a Martial Spirit with foresight. Those he tortured were destined for greater disasters; you know the farr whose leg was broken? If Holley hadn’t broken his leg, he would have fallen into a pond and drowned the next day."
"I’ve heard as well, as well as about the woman whose face he lashed with a whip. But I think it’s all false, surely soone is whitewashing that scumbag’s reputation."
"But who would do that? His father who protected him has been exiled, and besides, he’s going to be beheaded today. It doesn’t make any sense for him to do this."
"Who knows what’s going on, I certainly don’t believe those rumors. He clearly had better ways to help people."
"The funniest part is, the ones spreading the rumors say that Holley insulted Saima Lynch to prevent a war, claiming that genius magic girl was a prostitute who slept around, and if not for Holley, her fiancé would have discovered her indiscretions, ultimately leading to a war because of her..."
