Chapter 781 12. Sacred Temple Council
After several months, the Seat of Mud is still empty.
Annan looked around and found that he had advanced one row further, reaching the sixth row from the bottom...or the seventh row from the bottom.
He saw Khamis VI who raised his head and looked around for him. He discovered Annan, and then showed a mixed emotion. He seemed happy that Annan's potential was beyond imagination, but disappointed that the gap between him and Annan was further widened.
So Khamis VI just waved and didn’t talk to him again.
On the contrary, the surrounding lords and monarchs who noticed Annan made a sound of surprise.
"Jack?"
"Annan Potter?"
"Dracula?"
He just didn't tell Annan's real name .
After surprise comes shock. They remembered that Annan was just the lord of a city-state... and that was how he ranked among them?
"Hello, Annan. I am Yunus Maca, and there is a theater for you in my capital."
The middle-aged man next to him extended his hand to Annan.
"I know you, the Principality of Maca, right?"
The smile that appeared on Annan suddenly became distant.
Grand Duke Yunus Maca was a careful person, and he guessed what was happening instantly: "I understand...you were deceived by people from the principality, right..."
"You don't know?" His The tone made Annan confused.
Grand Duke Yunus Makha sighed: "There was a crisis in the principality. In order to survive the crisis, my ancestors allowed merchants to trade in the name of the country and wrote it into the law. We protect their safety , they pay taxes normally...Although the principality has successfully survived the crisis, some cunning businessmen have also emerged..."
Annan said nonchalantly: "Well, it's actually nothing, just a few stupid ones. This guy came over and asked for a batch of Fast pants, and he defaulted on hundreds of gold coins. "
In fact, Liberty City still made a profit - it made a deposit of dozens of gold coins.
Grand Duke Yunus Maca pondered for a moment: "I will send the remaining money to your theater..."
Annan did not refuse: "Then I will send the goods."
“No, just take it as my apology.” Grand Duke Yunus Maca refused.
The Grand Duke may not be as innocent as he said, but his overtures are true.
Annan readily accepted and got to know several other people one after another. One of them happened to not be radiated by the theater. He and Annan agreed to open a theater in his territory after the parliament.
Not too many MPs know Annan or chat with him, but as long as Annan moves forward a few more and reaches the front row, he will receive real attention if he shows potential.
However, Annan remembered that some rat spies often appeared in the Holy Council... It is estimated that assassinations will also appear one after another.
“Due to the changes in the McKean clan in the north this time, I propose that the countries in Middle-earth and the north form a coalition to stop the tide of rat people and demons at the border.”
Open the sacred temple. As expected, it was the King of Bones, the Emperor of the Tatooine Empire.
While the meeting was busy discussing, Annan suddenly saw a familiar figure in front of him.
"Kingdom of Ruikan'er~"
Annan called softly, and the back moved, suppressing the urge to turn his head.
It seems that he knows that Annan is sitting behind him.
Annan couldn't help but remember that when Crook first became king, he sat in the front three rows of the sacred hall with great glory, and he was the last one. But now, he advanced to the seventh row, and he fell to the fifth row.
It won’t be long before they can sit together...
"Sorry." Annan lay on the table, apologized to the lord in the front row who had previously chatted with him, and stretched out his hand to poke Crowe's back. "You seem familiar..."
Several nobles around were watching the fun - of course they knew the grudges between Annan and the Kingdom of Ruikan'er.
However, Crowe didn't look back, and even the fog shrouding his figure emerged.
Annan sat back in his seat and deliberately said to Grand Duke Yunus Maca in a voice that Crowe could hear: "Grand Duke Yunus, it's still early for me to come to the Holy Council. You know I can Killing people here?”
Grand Duke Yunus Maca narrowed his eyes and smiled: "The sacred eye connects us through dreams, and we can't hurt each other."
"That's a shame..."
< br>But if the Divine Eye was so powerful, it would have started killing people long ago when it was in the hands of the rat men.
"Do you know?" But Annan continued, "He sent two legends to destroy Liberty City. But he didn't expect that the ancestors of Montreal's golden family would be guests at the city lord's mansion, and the two legends died. One injury..."
"That's really asking for death..." Grand Duke Yunus Maca said cooperatively.
His territory is in the south, and he is not afraid of the Kingdom of Rekaner at all.
The irony is that if it weren't for Annan, many of their countries and territories would have never heard of the Kingdom of Rekaner.
Thanks to Annan's continuous insinuations for two consecutive years, most of China knew that there was an evil Kingdom of Rekaner in the north - also named Montreal.
"You must be curious why Crowe hates me so much, right? Because I am a survivor... That was three years ago..."
Annan slowly showed a listening look to those around him The congressman talked about the secrets of the past.
The Thirteenth Supreme King said it in front, and he said it in the back.
With the end of the parliament and the plan of the coalition led by the empire finalized, Annan returned to Liberty City with unfinished business.
Annan knocked on Olmedo's door, went to Itilia's room with her, and told them about the parliament.
To be honest, Liberty City was relieved that the Empire stepped forward.
The McKeon clan has made Liberty City so nervous that it’s almost stressful, but the empire may not care at all... In the long history of the Golden Family and the thousands of years since the empire was established, what kind of crisis have they not encountered?
New day, new everything.
When Evelin came to the City Lord’s Mansion, Annan was dining in the restaurant.
"This is today's "Glory of Ruikan'er"!" Evelin handed the newspaper to Annan.
“What did they say?”
Annan thought of last night’s experience and picked up the newspaper.
[We are invincible, our kingdom is strong and just, our people are wise and calm, beware of the lies of the rat spies! 】
“What do they mean?” Annan raised his head.
“We are worried that we will accuse them of something, so we lie to our own people first.” Evelin kept laughing.
They told so many lies that they themselves believed them.
Annan shook his head, and then Evelin stuffed a notebook into her.
"Where's our new joke?" His bright eyes stared at Annan.
Annan lived up to Evelin's expectations and took the quill.
“In a college in the new capital of the Kingdom of Rikaner, a professor taught his students: ‘The Kingdom of Rikaner is the most powerful country in the north, with sufficient supplies, fair laws, and no corruption and crime. People don’t need to be afraid of rat men.’ The students in the audience cried: ‘Professor, we don’t want to stay in the new capital, we want to go to the Kingdom of Ruikan’er’”
