Chapter 395: 367. Enough to start a rebellion.
These cat-girls were considered geniuses within their respective tribes, more excellent than Charles cklen, who had not summoned the Evil God.
Since Charles, with the help of the Black Dragon and Qiudelo, two beast persons of the Sacred Order, had swallowed up the entire beastn camp and united different tribes under the cult of fate, his status had soared trendously.
Charles himself hadn’t thought too much about it, just that the beastn camp was split into countless tribes, which was too troubleso to handle, so he used a very simple thod. He hadn’t expected that this thod would be so effective.
Charles himself hadn’t even gotten used to his new status yet!
He expressed that there was no need to serve him and went to find the Black Dragon to discuss how to lodge a protest against Strasbourg.
Charles only wanted to fight for fairness, not to court death.
...
If he were to take tens of thousands of beastn troops back, the Sacred Order in Strasbourg would kill him first instead of listening to him and giving him a fair chance.
Striving for fairness is an affair that requires a great deal of wisdom.
Often, in the real world, it’s not about reason but strategy!
Well, Charles could only discuss it with the Black Dragon.
The Golden Ram Herolf was not very clever, and although Qiudelo was quite intelligent, this leader of the Silverback Ape Persons held grudges and was not very willing to offer advice to Charles.
The Black Dragon now almost always appeared in human form by Charles’s side, embodying the role of a ‘military officer,’ and with his extensive knowledge and elegant deanor, he truly embodied the character of a scholar.
The Black Dragon was indeed a qualified military counselor, and his advice was always reliable.
When Charles ca to find him, the Black Dragon was instructing a group of beastn in the Transcendent practice of the Beast God Transformation Technique. The old lizardman knew that Charles wanted to bridge humans and beastn. If humans could transform into beastn and vice versa, and they could marry freely, in the distant future, it would indeed eliminate the distinctions between the two races.
Especially since Charles had founded the cult of fate, while Charles himself didn’t think much of it, the Black Dragon saw potential; if the cult were to spread, its influence would be trendous!
Those who joined the cult of fate, along with beastn, would develop a strong sense of identity from the forty-eight doctrines, a sense of identity that could even replace the identity derived from each’s racial origin.
That’s why the Black Dragon wanted all the Transcendent beastn to learn the Beast God Transformation Technique and also to appear in human form usually.
Though it was a daunting, long-term task, he considered it one of the most important issues to address.
Seeing Charles approach, the Black Dragon smiled slightly, let the Transcendent beastn continue their practice on their own, and said, “Head of the McAllen family, did you want to discuss how we can seek justice from Strasbourg?”
Charles did not conceal these concerns from his counselor and spoke with so distress, “I am indeed seeking justice, not courting death. If I had tens of thousands of human troops and you few of the Sacred Order, I would definitely consider a reckless march on Strasbourg. But now, I have tens of thousands of beastn troops, and marching on Strasbourg would not only fail to achieve fairness but also bring disaster upon the beastn.”
“That is sothing I absolutely do not wish to see.”
“The lives of beastn are lives too; I cannot risk their lives for my personal gain and recklessly squander them.”
Black Dragon had been in contact with Charles for a long ti and knew that although Charles was not quite a qualified commander, often caring too much for the lives of his subordinates and preferring to give up many advantages just to ensure that his n could survive as much as possible. However, beastn were not lacking in qualified commanders; rather, it was this kind of leader who cherished beastn that was even more rare. He smiled slightly and said, “I suggest you do nothing.”
“This ti, you have subdued eleven cities in the Red Dragon Strait, ostensibly pushing the beastman army across the Red Dragon Sea, which will inevitably earn you the most generous reward.”
“Once you have acquired the new status, your position and influence in the Fars Empire will inevitably be elevated.”
“That will be your good opportunity to seek justice.”
“You occasionally ntioned a saying from the New Continent: ‘Weak voice, no weight!'”
“I think this is absolutely true wisdom. Once your status changes, your words will carry enough weight.”
Charles pondered for a while and sighed, saying, “I still feel discontent!”
Black Dragon also pondered for a mont and spoke softly, “I have a feeling that the coldness from the Fars Royal Family is not because of you, but because of… the Brittany family.”
Charles was slightly surprised and asked in return, “How could I be affected by the Brittany family?”
Black Dragon gave a light smile and said, “Don’t you think that the Brittany family is too powerful?”
Charles had only recently learned that Earl Brittany was the strongest in the Fars Empire, but only now did he realize that the Earl’s eldest son, Anne’s brother, Antonio Brittany, was almost certainly set to take the throne of the strongest in the next generation of the Fars; and the Earl, for his daughter, could easily mobilize five Sacred Order…
“Enough to start a rebellion.”
In Charles’s mind, this thought suddenly sprang up, and cold sweat dripped down; only one thought echoed repeatedly in his heart: “Enough to start a rebellion…”
If he were Emperor Julius Axler VI of Fars, he would definitely be wary of such a powerful family, vigilant against the rise of the Brittany family. As a staunch mber of the Brittany family, the Emperor’s “indifference” towards him was already very generous, not scheming to kill him was already rciful.
Whether a family is strong has never been about their position but their strength. For instance, Archduke Ferdinand and Grand Duke Joseph, despite being above the Brittany in rank, the Brittany family would not even need to send out knights; just Mama Karen acting alone would be enough to change the rulership of the Behemoth Duchy.
When Emperor Julius Axler VI heard that a rchant’s son had fallen for Earl Brittany’s beloved daughter, he would treat it as a re joke, not harboring any malice towards Charles. But as Charles continually perford great deeds and quickly rose up, also becoming very close to Krel Brittany, if the Emperor was not wary, he would not be a qualified emperor.
In other words, the stronger Charles beca and the more ritorious his achievents, the more intense the Emperor’s malice would beco.
This is not about so scheming villain at play; just as last ti, it may not necessarily be that Duchess su bore him any malice, nor is it about soone plotting this ti …
Both instances could likely be from the will of the Emperor!
The Brittany family is already too strong; there cannot be another powerful son-in-law of a rchant’s status promoted to the empire’s elite.
This is just fucking politics.
Suddenly, Charles understood why Earl Brittany had suggested that he and Anne should settle in another country.
