Chapter 224: Albert's Decision

Annan also did not know how much of his advice Albert had listened to.

But he nodded anyway, indicating that he would seriously consider it.

But as His Royal Highness Albert said...... Now in Noah's kingdom, even if he is willing to communicate with Nicholas, Nicholas may not be willing to communicate with him.

With the expulsion and imprisonment of the Rotten Husband Church, the third prince's side will inevitably suffer a heavy blow - but the eldest princess's side, who is suppressed by the Rotten Husband Church, will get a more obvious advantage. In addition, the king's physical condition is getting worse and worse...... As time passed, more and more officials and nobles would turn to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was originally the king's appointed heir.

Originally, when the eldest princess and the third prince confronted each other, the equilibrium generated would also collapse in an instant.

In such a situation, if the third prince tries to survive, he can only try to form an alliance with him to have the possibility of fighting against the eldest princess.

Of course, Albert would not be willing to form an alliance with him. Because he also knew that it was not only the old king and the eldest princess who the third prince planned to sacrifice before, but also an inconspicuous and low-key prince like him.

But believe it or not...... Not necessarily.

For the eldest princess from the military, regardless of whether it is the Silver Lord Church or the Rotten Husband Church, it is a threat and an unstable factor for the Noah Kingdom - an "outsider" who intends to seek power in the kingdom.

For her, the third prince who is close to the Rotten Husband Church and the fourth prince who is close to the Silver Jue Church are both enemies that need to be eliminated and suppressed. And compared with the third prince who completely lost power, Albert's sense of presence has become stronger.

So on Albert's side, after the Rotten Church lost power, he fell into a desperate situation - the other two royal heirs who had no time to pay attention to him at all would be hostile to him...... Tried to kill him.

And when the Rotten Husband Church used him as a marionette to manipulate him at will, he was able to live safely and serve as a lubricant for the situation.

If only before, Albert could have given up the relationship on the side of the Silver Lord Church and completely turned to the eldest princess, completely lowered his posture, but begged for his life—yes, with Albert's lazy, infighting, and temperamental gentle and timid character, he could have done such a thing.

But now the situation is different.

Albert learns that his daughter Kaphne's only current spell is actually to inherit the throne......

Even Albert, who didn't know much about the otherworld, knew that breaking the spell would cause great damage to the otherworld. There is even a high probability that he will die directly.

And even so, he still did not have the heart to seek the throne.

It's just that I'm going to "go back and see first".

Therefore, he did not completely sever ties with the Silver Jue Church, but he did not completely fall to the Silver Jue Church.

But after he learned that Annan needed to go to the royal capital in late spring.

But he made a somewhat bold move-

He wanted to leave Kaphne in Roseburg for the time being, and go back to see it himself.

"I'm not sure if the exclusion of the Rotten Church will be all arrested immediately under a miracle, or if they need to be arrested one by one."

Albert sighed at the time, and said to Annan with some sorrow: "If it is the latter, I have every reason to believe it...... We can't catch all the rotten believers. Only those who are in high positions can be controlled first. ”

For example, his wife.

It is only now that Albert knows why he and his wife have been married for so long, but they only have one child, not even an illegitimate child......

He could even guess when his wife began to believe in rotten husbands.

Four and five years after Kaphne's birth, his wife was obviously pregnant twice, but she miscarried under the careful care of the royal family, and she couldn't even find the reason. Now it seems that there is only one answer...... The root cause is his wife herself.

After that, his wife never conceived again. And because of guilt and unbearability, he did not try to marry another wife again.

"But I'm afraid they'll guess that it has something to do with me — I'm almost sure of that."

Albert sighed: "As long as I pay attention, I will definitely have no problem saving myself." It's a big deal, so I won't be able to go out in the royal capital church...... But Kaphne is different.

"In addition to the rotten church of the rotten husband staring at her, the people of the Hermetic school are also staring at her. I probably don't have the energy to protect her in the royal capital......"

As he said this, he glanced stealthily at Bishop Daryl.

Although Bishop Darryl's movements were hidden, Albert noticed Bishop Daryl's respect for Annan. It's just that he's smart and doesn't say it at all.

Keeping Kaphne in Roseburg for a few months was also something he couldn't do.

To be honest, he is not very relieved to leave such a beautiful daughter alone in the field......

After all, he is such a daughter.

But he didn't earn the throne, and in the end Kaphne was probably dead; He went to earn the throne, and Kaphne would probably still die.

There's only one way for her to live.

Staying in Roseburg is the safest option.

Bishop Darryl's identity is mysterious, but Albert knows that he even knew his own grandfather, the previous King Noah.

This shows that Bishop Darryl's real age is very large, far beyond the life limit of ordinary people...... And he's not an extraordinary person at all. Bishop Darril looked like a middle-aged man in his forties.

But this "middle-aged man" was able to invite Sir Silver to come in person.

But like this, he is also respectful to Annan.

Plus Annan's true identity......

Albert's move to leave Kaphne here was rather deliberate.

If he can claim the throne, then his friendship with Annan at this time will become a friendly relationship between the two countries after Annan succeeds to the throne as Grand Duke.

It is different from the belligerent views of the current king, and the tough hand of the eldest princess.

Albert, who is closer to the people, understands ...... The Noahs did not like war, they loved peace.

More critically, their lives improved rapidly in the years that followed the peace...... This will make them instinctively disgusted with war.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for the development of the country.

And his father's idea of unifying the five countries and rebuilding the Great Barrier is naturally a good thing......

But here's the problem.

With the dark and populous Underground Federation, with the Winter People who are accustomed to the long cold frost and winds of the Northlands, and the United Kingdom, which is fierce because of pirates...... and the most technologically advanced church countries.

In addition to the most fertile land and the richest metal deposits, the kingdom of Noah was the richest...... What other advantages are there?

What is he going to do to fight them?

Doesn't this really make others realize that Noah is a weak fat sheep?

Albert knows this very well: don't get angry easily.

Once angry, they will try to use their true strength. Only the enemies who were afraid of themselves will realize that his true strength is no more than that.

The unification of the five countries is not completely impossible. The thing itself makes sense.

But this war should never be started by their Noahs—

Otherwise, they who occupy the best position may be surrounded and beaten.

The old king was indeed a noble man.

All he wanted was to rebuild the Great Barrier...... But they forgot about the greed of others.

And at present, only the Duchy of Winter, the Kingdom of Noah, and the United Kingdom need the protection of the Great Barrier.

The Underground Federation has adapted to life in the Underworld - and the Grey Mist cannot penetrate deep underground.

As for the church......

They have solved the problem of the gray fog once and for all.

They built countless towers of Babel – building cities in the sky.

They also have enchantments, but their enchantments are meant to purify the air high in the sky so that the inhabitants can survive in the sky.

Yes, the gray fog is not infinite. Rather, it has its height limit.

The Underground Federation chose to flee down, and the Church chose to flee upward...... The problem is that they all succeeded.

Even if the gray fog completely buried the earthly world, it had nothing to do with them.

Therefore, it is impossible for them to support the reunification of the five countries.

At present, the kingdom of Noah has not been invaded by the Church, only because the Church is in the easternmost and they are in the westernmost part, across the entire continent of Yaseran.

…… And the church doesn't have the energy to build a floating archipelago again.

They didn't look down on the Noahs—not even any other earthlings, that's all.

Albert is not stupid, on the contrary, he is smart.

But at the same time he is also lazy and somewhat timid. He knew that his character was unworthy of being king......

However.

- Kaphne is different from him.

"Will she be Noah's future queen......

After Albert left, Annan looked at Kaphne, who was tugging at his sleeve, and pondered deeply.

I always feel that it doesn't look like ......

But with this side of the matter coming to an end.

Annan knew what he should do first:

Yes, he should give rewards to players who "participate in the main quest".
