Chapter 434 Hamilton's Sorrow

Maybe others don't know yet, but Roger knows that the Archangel statue is in his hands, how could it be in Gaia City?Roger has been traveling all over the world recently, and he has never heard of any legends about the Archangel statue in Gaia City. This is clearly a lie deliberately fabricated by Alonso III in order to trick Hamilton into dying on the Lund Peninsula. 【】

Roger knew in his heart that although Hamilton was already the most powerful person in the kingdom besides the king, he had always been loyal to the king and had no intention of replacing Alonso III at all.Not only that, the Duke is also a true patriot, and he wants to build the Thorne Kingdom into the most powerful country on the continent.

Alonso III took advantage of this to throw out the bait of the Archangel statue, tricking Hamilton into venturing into the Lund Peninsula, and ended up in such a tragic end.The poor duke was so devoted to the interests of the country that he didn't realize it until he was about to die. He regretted that he didn't listen to Roger's words and quit bravely.

In fact, if Roger hadn't arrived in time, not only the Duke of Hamilton would have ended up turning into an undead creature, but even his daughter Anna would not have survived.It can even be said that this matter is all due to Roger's help, otherwise the Duke will end up in an unsatisfactory end.

Speaking of it, Hamilton is really wronged.As soon as the Duke knew that the statue of the Archangel was in Gaia City, he rushed here regardless of the danger. He knew how much he loved the Thorne Kingdom, and even at the risk of his life, he wanted to drive the undead creatures from the kingdom's territory.

But Alonso III took advantage of Hamilton's loyalty to the country and tricked him into dying in this land where the undead ravaged.What makes people sad is that the king's conspiracy really succeeded. Not only did the duke get rid of smoothly, but even the heir of the duke, Anna, was almost doomed.

You must know that Anna is the only heir to Hamilton. If he and his daughter die on the Lund Peninsula, the duke's title and territory will be taken back by the kingdom, and no one has the right to say anything.What's more important in this plan is that Alonso III is sure that in order for Hamilton to get the statue of the Archangel and recover the Lund Peninsula from the hands of undead creatures as soon as possible, he will definitely mobilize all the guards loyal to him to protect him from this dangerous place.If Roger hadn't arrived in time, these troops loyal to Hamilton would have been wiped out.At that time, even if someone from Hamilton's faction suspects that this is a conspiracy by the king, they will no longer have any ability to challenge Alonso III. All the forces loyal to the Duke have been consumed in the Lund Peninsula.

Thinking of this, Roger couldn't help feeling worthless for Hamilton, and also extremely disgusted with Alonso III's vicious heart.Roger has long known that the emperor will do whatever it takes to keep his position and get rid of those who threaten him.And from Alonso's point of view, Hamilton does have such an ability, so it is conceivable to use any method to deal with him.But it was precisely because of Roger's close relationship with Hamilton that he naturally hated the king.If Roger hadn't promised Hamilton before his death that he would never take the initiative to seek revenge on Alonso III, Roger would definitely trouble him after returning.

How clever is Anna?Seeing that Luo Jie was silent after listening to his words, but there was a look of anger on his brows, he quickly thought of his question, and immediately changed his pretty face: "Father's death is related to Alonso III?! "

Roger knew that Anna was smart and clever, and even if she could hide it for a while, she would be able to figure out other problems by herself in the future.So after a little hesitation, he decided to tell Anna the truth.

"Do you remember what I asked you to bring to your father last time?" Roger said in a low voice, "I think... my bad premonition at that time came true."

Although Roger did not quite understand what he said, Anna understood him at once.Anna took a few quick breaths, and then said in a trembling voice: "Why did he do this, when my father stood with him in the most difficult time, he was able to defeat Vettel and others! Father has great respect for the royal family and the kingdom. I have always been loyal, why..."

Roger caressed Anna's jade back and let out a long sigh.The Duke of Hamilton's biggest mistake was not retreating bravely. According to Roger's experience, those ministers on earth who have made great achievements and attracted the suspicion of the king either rebelled hard or ended badly. There are almost no exceptions.If the Duke of Hamilton had listened to Roger's words and voluntarily handed over all his powers, he would not have ended up in the current situation.

However, from the perspective of Turonzo's world, Alonso III's actions are indeed too much. If it is spread, not only will people despise him, but no one will serve him loyally anymore.

Of course, these are not issues that Roger and Anna have to consider. At this time, the Duke's daughter only feels that the anger is burning in her chest.The sad expression gradually receded from her pretty face, replaced by unspeakable anger: "Roger, I want to avenge my father!"

Of course Roger could understand Anna's feelings, and he would definitely make the same decision if it had been changed.But thinking of what he had promised Hamilton before he died, Roger still sighed softly and said, "I promised your father to take good care of you and not let anyone hurt you, but I won't take the initiative to provoke you." Lonzo III."

"Why did father do this?" Anna asked Roger puzzled, "He knows that Alonso III framed him, why doesn't he want to take revenge?"

"Because he really loves this country." Roger sighed, "That's why he didn't expect us to drag this country into a whirlpool of trouble just to avenge him!"

Of course Anna knew her father very well, and knew that Roger was right.For a moment, the two thoughts collided in her head, causing Anna to grab her hair in pain, not knowing what to do.

Seeing Anna's distressed look, Roger gently hugged her into his arms and said, "Don't think too much, let's obey your father's last wish for now. I believe... this situation won't last long, you There will always be a chance for revenge!"

Anna was taken aback by Roger's words, and looked up at him with disbelief.With Anna's cleverness, of course it can be heard that Roger obviously felt that Alonso III would not let it go.

Anna was about to ask Roger clearly.The two of them heard a loud noise coming from outside at the same time.
