Stanwil's words not only ignored the trauma caused by the "murderer" Samuel to Breclin, but they also announced the validity of this duel.
No one would think that Stanwil was moved by the ignorant and fearless Prince "Arthur"'s words. Compared with an empire's prince, even if he was a mechanic grand master, a Demi-God powerhouse was still an existence that must be looked up to. Prince Arthur was so rude because he came a step late and didn't hear what Breclin said. He didn't even know the identity and strength of the "uncle" in front of him.
The reason why Stanwil changed his tone was the glance he gave to Groas. The two elders should have negotiated secretly. It must be related to Prince "Arthur"'s "filial piety" to Groas. No wonder Prince Royal Highness seemed fearless after Groas appeared.
Only the two Demi-God Dragons elders, Stanwil and Groas, knew that it was not "Arthur" who was ignorant and fearless, but everyone including Fageris.
"Very good," Chen Rui nodded to Breclin, "You have a reasonable uncle."
Breclin didn't react from the surprise for a while, and she nodded subconsciously. The corner of Stanwil's eyes twitched, and he finally acquiesced to the title of "reasonable".
Fortunately, Chen Rui didn't continue, but he came to Fageris and pointed to Breclin, "General Fageris, look, that young man is injured like this, and his uncle thinks that this is a fair duel. Do you think this is just nonsense?"
When Breclin heard the word "young man", she was about to jump up, but Stanwil glared at her. She immediately lowered her head.
Gemünden once went to Ryūzoku with the church representatives to negotiate the magic game, so he happened to see Stanwil. He immediately said, "Madam Fageris shouldn't question Sir Stanwil's decision right? This is a fair duel between dragon knights, and it's a duel of life and death."
"That's right!" Chen Rui was about to continue, but Fageris frowned and took a few steps forward.
"His Royal Highness, Trinidad is the deputy legion commander of The Iron Scale personally appointed by His Majesty. Like Samuel, he is also a member of the Dragonriders. He is also the supreme commander of the capital legion stationed in Jinyao Territory this time. No matter what the reason is, if you must put him to death, His Highness will certainly not be able to explain it to His Majesty. "
These words not only mentioned Rex The Great, but also pointed out the fact that Samuel and Trinidad were both in the Dragonriders, and Fageris herself was the legion commander of the Dragonriders. To a certain extent, she also controlled Samuel's position in the Dragonriders. Whether it was for public or private reasons, Prince "Arthur" should give this face.
"I understand." Chen Rui showed a thoughtful expression and slowly nodded. Seeing this scene, Trinidad finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As everyone knew, Samuel was loyal to Prince "Arthur". If Prince "Arthur" asked Samuel to let him live, there would definitely be no problem.
"Then … Samuel," Chen Rui glanced at Samuel, "now carry out the result of this' duel of life and death. 'The loser, dies."
Fageris was shocked. She did not expect that after she explained the pros and cons to Prince "Arthur", the other side still did not show the slightest mercy. This was equivalent to slapping the face of the Dragonriders, a supra class strong.
Trinidad thought he had heard it wrong. When he saw Samuel approaching step by step with a long sword in his hand, he then reacted. He did not know what tool he used, but his body suddenly turned into a red light and fled into the distance.
The red light was fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, it had turned into a light spot. However, this light spot then quickly enlarged — Trinidad's whole body suddenly fell back. Obviously, this was not his own will.
"You let your Dragons companion be injured to this extent, and you still dare to run away in a cowardly manner!" Stanwil snorted coldly, and there was a cold glint in his eyes.
"No …" Before Trinidad could say "mercy", his body suddenly split into pieces, and the split body instantly turned into nothingness. What was left was the damaged "Ashes Suit" that fell to the ground, looking dim and lifeless.
"That kind of guy is not my companion," Breclin muttered in a low voice.
"Cut the crap," Stanwil said impatiently. "Don't you think it's not embarrassing enough? Go back with me! "
Breclin had been afraid of this uncle since she was young. She did not dare to say much. She endured the pain, stood up, and walked to Stanwil's side. Stanwil glanced at Groas, and did not say anything to Fageris. His figure flickered, and he disappeared with Breclin.
Fageris did not expect that there would be such a turn of events. Trinidad was killed by Stanwil, and her brain could not wrap around it for a moment.
Groas noticed that Stanwil did not dare to look at Chen Rui. He knew that this guy killed Trinidad because he wanted to vent his anger. He shook his head secretly, and waved at Andrew.
A layer of silver-white light suddenly appeared on Andrew's body, and his serious injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Andrew had already taken the medicine given by Samuel, and now with the help of Groas, his recovery speed was even faster. His figure slowly changed, and he turned into the original handsome little boy, his body covered with terrible scars.
However, the Saint-dragon race's recovery ability was extremely strong. Now that his injuries were under control, it was only a matter of time before he fully recovered.
"Thank you, Lord Groas." Andrew got up and bowed.
"Little Andrew, I heard that you were grounded. You snuck out this time, right? As for your father, Peilin … Don't worry, I'll go and put in a good word for you. "
"Thank you, Lord!" Andrew showed a look of gratitude.
Groas looked at Samuel and added, "You have a good partner."
On the side, Fageris's expression became even uglier. Groas's words revealed his undisguised admiration for Samuel. It should be known that Groas was a demigod, and at the same time, one of the elders that Dragon Emperor Palgoris relied on. He held real power in his hands. In this way, Samuel's status in the Dragonriders would only get higher and higher, and the possibility of excluding him from the army was almost zero.
Although the death of Trinidad was caused by the Ryūzoku's elder, Stanwil, the real cause was the coercion of Prince "Arthur."
In this incident, the two great Dragons elders, Stanwil and Groas, were on the side of "Arthur." Fageris could no longer say anything. She just said coldly to Chen Rui, "Today's matter ends here. However, His Royal Highness, no matter what the cause of this incident is, the result is that the army commander appointed by His Majesty died in your territory. You need to give His Majesty an explanation."
Chen Rui smiled and said something that surprised Fageris, "General Fageris, can I understand that because of Trinidad's death, a conspiracy against Jinyao Territory … or against me, the Third Prince, was shattered?"
Fageris's eyes narrowed slightly, "What does Your Royal Highness mean by this?"
"General should be very clear about what The Iron Scale has done in Jinyao Territory during this time. Especially today, after causing trouble in the Flower Tavern, they injured the Jade Army's guards. In addition to the soldiers, seven innocent people have died, and the entire Flower Tavern was razed to the ground. Knight Gemünden just explained the whole situation of the duel to me in detail. At the beginning, it was Trinidad who took the initiative to provoke me. During the duel, he took out the 'Ashes Set' and drank the black potion. It was obvious that this was premeditated. Not only that, when he was defeated by Samuel, he actually summoned the Dragons for a sneak attack. If it weren't for Samuel's Dragons coming in time, Samuel would have been the one who turned into ashes! If this isn't a conspiracy, then what is? "
"This is just a personal grudge between him and Samuel. The so-called conspiracy is just Your Royal Highness' guess! There is no evidence! " Fagiris replied coldly. He was a supra master, yet he was questioned by a mere prince like this. If Groyas wasn't by his side, he would've already flared up or left in a huff.
"Arthur" Prince didn't seem to feel the coldness in Fageris's voice at all, and then said, "Unfortunately, Trinidad is a disappointing idiot. Even with this advantage, he still lost to Samuel. Especially greedy for life and afraid of death. After losing the duel, he fled. Even the Dragons who left showed contempt for him. What I don't understand is, how can such a person be a Dragon Knight?"
The last sentence made Groas nod his head, and at the same time, it was equivalent to slapping Fageris in the face. Fageris's heart was already angry, but Chen Rui didn't want to stop the topic at all.
"There's one more thing that I'm curious about. Why did the General appear so coincidentally when Trinidad lost the duel and was facing the threat of death?"
"I can explain this question," Groas said, "I've stayed in Jinyao Territory for a long time, especially recently, I've gained some understanding of power, so I wanted to return to Ryūzoku to train. Elder Stanwil will be my successor, and this time, Fageris accompanied Elder Stanwil here, specifically to hand over some work. However, Fageris sensed some changes at the last moment, so Stanwil and I accompanied him here … It should be that Trinidad used some kind of SOS unique to Dragonriders. Speaking of which, that Trinidad only knows how to take advantage of the situation, and he doesn't have the slightest fighting spirit and spirit of a knight, so he really deserved to die. Fageris, I don't want to see this kind of person become a companion of the Dragons, even if he's just a candidate. "
"Understood, Lord Groas." Everyone saw what happened today, and Groas's words were very fair, so Fageris could only swallow her anger.
"It seems that I've been overthinking, General, I apologize to you," Chen Rui smiled faintly, but it was a pity that neither his tone nor his expression had the slightest intention of "apologizing".
Fageris raised her eyebrows, and then she heard Chen Rui say another sentence, "As for the instructions that General mentioned … I'll now go with you to Yerodisha to meet His Majesty!"
Fageris was surprised. In fact, she knew very well that Trinidad's actions were not all inspired by Garfield. Rex The Great was also behind him, and his purpose was to target Jinyao Territory.
Prince "Arthur's" performance had long aroused Rex The Great's fear. In the battle for imperial power, it was not uncommon for father and son to kill each other. Although it had not escalated to the worst stage, Rex The Great's intention to suppress Jinyao Territory was beyond doubt.
For "Arthur" to be able to manage Jinyao Territory to such an extent, it could be said that he was extremely talented, and it was impossible for him not to see through Rex The Great's intention. Moreover, Jinyao Territory was only extremely economically developed, but its military power was extremely weak, and it was far from being able to compete with the entire Empire.
Therefore, today, "Arthur" contributed to Trinidad's death at all costs, and there were signs that they were going to fall out with each other. Under such circumstances, he still chose to go directly to the capital to meet Rex The Great, which really puzzled Fageris.
"Your Highness …" Isabella, who was covered with a veil, said, "I'll go with you."
"There's no need," Chen Rui shook his head, "I'm just making some things clear to His Majesty. As for safety, with General Fageris around, there will definitely be no problem. If we are fast enough, we should be able to arrive today, right, General? "
"Go alone?" Fageris suddenly felt that she could not see through this "mere" prince whose strength was only at the Soldier Level. She took a deep breath and nodded, "We can arrive at night."
"At night …" Chen Rui revealed a meaningful smile, "The time is just right."
