Meg had obtained today's secret report from the secret tree hole, and after some slight modifications and embellishments, he used the Hundred Transformation Mask to change his face. He sold this latest intelligence report to a few paid intelligence agencies in Rodu, and at the same time, he gave a free copy to all of the storytellers in the teahouses.
In less than an afternoon, the second prince, Josh, had sold his soul to the devil, waged war against the outside world, and murdered his ministers and their families. His crimes were unpardonable, and His Majesty had already issued an order to depose him from his position as a prince. Thus, news of him being arrested and apologised to all of the people who had died tragically spread throughout Rodu.
Such explosive news sent shockwaves through the entire royal court.
On the other hand, this news signified that the battle for the throne that had been going on for over a decade had most likely already come to an end.
Josh had chosen to sell his soul to the devil, which meant that he had been eliminated from the battle for the throne, and First Prince Sean would become the only successor to the throne.
…
Within the first prince's manor.
"Josh, that idiot, was eliminated by himself in the end. What a waste of effort." Sean looked at the intelligence report he had just received with a smug smile on his face.
He was undoubtedly the one who had benefited the most from this incident.
Initially, he was still grieving over Bloom's death. After all, Bloom was his greatest ally, but he had suddenly died.
However, judging from the current situation, his death was very worthwhile. He had taken Josh down into the abyss with him, and he would never be able to rise again.
"Your Highness, the royal palace hasn't released any information on this yet, so we'll have to treat this report with caution," one of his subordinates reminded.
A smile appeared on Sean's face, and he said, "As long as this news has spread, then it's the truth. From this day forth, Josh is dead."
…
"This …" Abraham listened to the butler's report, and he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.
"Master, should I prepare a carriage for you to enter the palace?" the butler asked in a quiet voice.
Abraham pondered in silence for a moment before shaking his head. "There's no need for that. His Majesty didn't summon me into the palace, nor did he officially announce this to the world. This is most likely just a rumor. Pass down my order that no one in the duke's manor is allowed to discuss this matter. Anyone who disobeys my orders will be expelled immediately."
The butler left with his orders, and Abraham began to pace around the hall with a troubled expression.
"That shouldn't be the case. No matter how you look at it, Josh still had a 50% chance of winning this battle. Why would he do something so stupid before His Majesty made a decision?"
"If Vanessa knew about this, she would definitely die."
"Sigh … Youngsters nowadays, I really don't understand them.
…
"Seems like we're not the only ones keeping an eye on this," Douglas said in surprise as he looked at the information in his hand.
. "Douglas was very Douglas's Douglas, Joshua, and Sean and Lord's actions's, he, Douglas, and his, and His Majesty, and Their methods, most likely, and and His.... and s''s' '''s their plan.. Josh the the done done done done so.
Fire Bloom ''s's was done done, done so, done so, and all, to's,'s's's's's''s's news... would's would's, and nothing nothing but the's had to. without doing anything, they, the news news news, and the news to be spread of of to be Of.
"Since the fire has already started, let's create another storm." Douglas smirked.
Not long after, an open letter in the name of the giant dragons was sent to the Rodu Royal Palace, and spread across the Norland Continent.
In this letter, the giant dragons condemned Andre for harboring Josh, who was controlled by the devil, and for colluding with the devil. He allowed Josh to start a war against the orcs and elves, and for wantonly killing the officials and their innocent family members in Rodu, and for trying to start a new racial war.
Furthermore, in this letter, the giant dragons even gave Andre an ultimatum. They requested Andre to capture Josh as soon as possible so that he could give everyone an explanation.
If the rumors circulating in the day were said to have limited influence, then this open letter from the giant dragons was like a heavy bomb that tore apart all pretense.
The second prince had turned into a devil, and was wantonly massacring people in Rodu. The people's hearts were in turmoil.
…
"This assist is so professional." Meg looked at the open letter he had just received, and was a little surprised.
This attack was tantamount to announcing Josh's social death.
No matter how he tried to clear his name in the future, with such a stain, unless he controlled everyone, he would never be able to become the king of the Roth Empire again.
He could already imagine how furious Andre or Josh would be when they received this news.
"We started the show, and the show went on by itself. The effect is better than we expected," Irina said with a smile as she looked at the letter in Meg's hand.
The devil made the Norland Continent feel threatened, and as the second prince of the Roth Empire, Josh sold his soul to the devil. Now, public opinion would force Andre to investigate this matter thoroughly, and cut off all ties with Josh.
It was foreseeable that an anti-Johnson alliance would be formed soon.
Andre had completely lost the legitimacy and initiative to start a war. He might even have to consider how to prove that the Edward royal family had not completely fallen and become the devil's servant.
"Not bad." Meg kept the open letter in his hand. He looked at Irina with a smile, and said, "I'm in a good mood today, so let's have a good meal. You can order whatever you want to eat."
"I want to eat yolk cake, roast meat, roast pig's eyes, roast fish …" Amy popped her head out from behind the counter, and was the first to say her name.
"Then let's have a barbecue feast. I'll go and prepare." Meg walked to the kitchen with a smile. It felt so good to give someone a taste of their own medicine.
…
"You lied to me! Things are not like what you said at all! I have nothing now!!! "
Outside Rodu, in a dark cave, a furious voice reverberated in the empty cave.
The faint light cast an illusionary shadow of the black-robed figure on the wall. The shadow slowly squirmed, and many tentacles sprouted from its body.
"There are no issues with the implementation of the plan, and the war has already begun. You've gained your current power through that resentment, but there are some bad guys who ruined our plan. You have to find them and kill them, and I'll help you. Everything in this world will be yours, and everyone will submit to you." A hoarse voice sounded within the cave, and the black shadow also began to sway slightly.
"Kill them? Heh … "Josh chuckled in despair." They just want to lure me out to kill me, so how am I supposed to kill them? Even you were resealed by Alex!
I have nothing now, and you're the culprit behind all of this … I shouldn't have trusted you, I shouldn't have trusted you … "
"Who else can you trust aside from me … Relax, everything has only just begun …" The shadow's voice gradually became gentler.
All of a sudden, the shadow on the wall pounced toward Josh, and it transformed into wisps of black mist that flowed into his body.
The shadow on the wall swayed, and a series of tentacles could be seen burrowing into Josh's head before completely disappearing.
"Now, I am you, and you are me …"
