A different world game? A different world game!

Chapter 198 Let You Ascend the Throne
early morning.

The sun is out and the rain is gone, and the warm sunshine is shining down.

The castle in Lubeck.

Lawrence, who had just rested for a night, had to have a brief meeting and conversation with Alicia and Kana.

This time, there were no other strangers where the three of them were talking, only trustworthy people.

However, the only people Lawrence could trust were the captain of the guards and the butler he brought with him.

At this moment, he looked tired and rubbed his eyebrows.

"You caused quite a stir in the refugee camp last night."

He said this with some anger.

Looking at Kana: “I know you Night Watchmen may be powerful, but this is Cohen, this is Rubek.

A big part of my purpose here is to maintain stability and avoid exacerbating conflicts among these refugees."

After saying that, he felt a little confused again.

"Didn't you say yesterday that we should proceed step by step to prevent them from causing greater harm to the refugees?

Why were you so active last night? Did something happen after I left?

He couldn't understand how such a huge change could happen in such a short period of time.

"I overestimated the cultists here. They are just a group of ordinary people who believe in evil gods.

Now that we have determined the enemy's strength, we must fight quickly and decisively to avoid causing further consequences."

Lawrence took a deep breath, feeling a bit angry, but then he let it out silently.

He has to admit it.

At least from what we saw yesterday, these Night Watchmen were indeed very powerful.

"Well, at least the result is good. The refugees didn't riot, and the cultists were cleared out. This place has finally settled down."

Lawrence sighed and said.

Kana looked at him.

It seems that this future Holy King is still very weak now.

If it were in the plot, the Holy King who had grown up later would have been angry by now.

And through anger and irrational actions, he took the initiative back into his own hands.

Well, now it's certain.

Now is a good time to collaborate.

Kana suddenly asked, "Your Highness, I heard that many nobles in the Kingdom of Cohen are not shy about interacting with cultists?"

Can the nobles be blamed for this problem?

To some extent, it's not entirely to blame.

Like said before.

This time is not that time.

Some of the former cultists were deceived, and only a very small number of them truly believed in the evil god.

But it's different now.

99% of the cultists nowadays truly believe in evil gods.

But this problem has only been around for a few years.

Although those nobles are all human beings, their vision and sensitivity in this regard are not as good as those of the immortal species with long lifespans.

They still hold the same attitude as before and collude with these cultists, using them to do some shameful things.

Little do we know that this moment is not the same as that moment.

With just such simple contact, they will be influenced by the cultists and become one of them.

Until now.

The nobles of this country still haven't realized the seriousness of the problem, even though the problem of cultists has begun to expand wildly.

These words.

This made Lawrence alert instantly.

He frowned at Cana.

"What do you want to do? I think I understand your attitude towards the cultists.

But I must remind you again, this is the Kingdom of Cohen, not a place where you can do whatever you want."

Kana ignored his response.

Instead, he said inexplicably.

“I believe you all understand the problems of the Cohen Kingdom.

The current king's time is running out, and right now the royal family is at its weakest.

The princes' fight for the throne has begun to become less concealed."

Cana said as he looked towards Lawrence.

Lawrence's expression was a little grim, but it was not directed at Kana, but at the facts.

When he came here, he had already lost the qualification to compete for the throne.

“Although I can’t be considered a member of the Kingdom of Cohen, I was once a prince.

I think I can understand your feelings to some extent. You are very angry, right?
Half of the country has fallen, refugees, evil gods, vampires, and various crises are coming one after another.

You don’t know when this country will completely fall and be destroyed, but your brothers and sisters, and those damn nobles, are still fighting for power and wealth.

Angry, yet powerless.”

Kana's words had obviously irritated Lawrence.

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

He slammed his fist on the table.

"Shut up!"

The captain of the guards behind him had already drawn his sword.

In response, Alice had already pointed her sword at the captain of the guards.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Okay, put the sword down."

Both sides put away their swords again.

Alicia and Anita sat nearby without saying a word.

They wanted to see what Kana was trying to do?
Last night's words and the actions of the night watchmen left a deep impression on them.

"Do you know Safro?" Kana suddenly asked in a slow tone.

Although Lawrence was very angry, he was a prince after all, and he controlled his emotions well.

He said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Those vampire countries?"

Kana nodded.

"It is said that they are a group of people who have used the Genesis Stone to voluntarily transform their human identities into monsters."

Cana looked at Lawrence and Alicia. It was obvious that both of them had no idea about the true structure of the vampires.

Or rather, no one except the Earl and him could understand it clearly.

"Aren't you surprised? My uncle is the Count of the Kingdom of Saffro. He's not a noble, but the younger brother of the former king.

And I was once the fourth prince."

They knew what Kana said.

"The transformation of the vampires starts from the top down. The royal family, nobles, officials, and merchants have already begun the transformation of the vampires.

My uncle discovered this very early on, and he couldn't understand or accept it, and even developed hatred for the cruelty within the royal family.

And I'm the same way. The entire upper class is heading towards the abyss of darkness, trying to drag this country into madness with it.

I was powerless, even trying my best to escape.”

As he spoke, Kana looked at the two of them and continued, "Do you know about the blood curse? Those curses on the land.

The entire land turned blood red, as if it was soaked in blood, and the entire capital was plunged into darkness.

Even the sun has a hard time shining through the clouds onto that country. This curse spreads very slowly after leaving the borders of Saffro, but I believe you all know it.

The two nodded, of course they knew this.

This is also the reason why the Kingdom of Cohen is so urgently seeking financial support.

Because if the vampires occupy the land for too long, even if the land is taken back later, whether it can be used is a huge problem.

"In other words, my country has been completely destroyed because of my parents and brothers.

Even if the vampires were wiped out, it would become a deadly place."

Lawrence's emotions have now completely calmed down.

Very simple.

The purpose of Kana's words was to let Lawrence make a comparison.

Are Lawrence's national problems serious?
Of course it's serious.

But what about Bikana?

That's good.

Lawrence still has a chance, and it is not so easy for this country to collapse in an instant.

And Kana's side has been completely destroyed.

In contrast, Lawrence even feels sympathy for Carner.

“So you founded the Night’s Watch?” Alicia asked.

Kana shook his head: "There is no connection between the two. Although it sounds miserable, it is not my ambition.

My goal from the beginning has been to save this world from darkness and prevent the end of the world."

These words made the two people present think of yesterday in an instant.

Thinking about the situation yesterday when the evil god kept coming.

For both of them, yesterday's experience was likely unforgettable. Even more important was what the evil god said after his arrival.

For example, it sounds powerful just by listening to it.

Kana killed one of the evil god's offspring.

You should know that even in the records of the Holy Light Church, there has never been any record of such a situation.

But Alicia had to admit that nothing was more worthy of recognition than hearing it from the evil god himself.

"So you really killed a descendant of an evil god?" Alicia couldn't help but ask.

Kana glanced at him and said, "He's just the weakest one, and he used a special method."

"That's enough to become a legend." Alicia murmured.

Lawrence was thinking about other things.

He couldn't help but ask, "Darkness, doomsday, do they really exist?"

Alicia nodded.

This is no secret within the Church of Holy Light.

But to Prince Lawrence, these things are more like legends.

As long as humans don’t try to understand, it will be difficult for them to know this information, after all, human life span is limited.

"Well, to be honest, I can't imagine it."

Cana poured cold water on him: "It's okay, you'll be able to imagine it soon."

Lawrence choked.

"Then I hope he'll take it slow."

Kana knocked on the table.

"I've strayed off topic. Let me get back to what I wanted to say.

There are three people who can compete for the throne of this country now: the eldest prince, the second prince, and the fourth prince. Is that right? "

Alicia and Lawrence were a little surprised?

Why did Kana know?

Logically speaking, it is impossible for Kana to know this information.

But I am too lazy to ask these questions now.

Lawrence nodded.

"The eldest prince, who has the best chance, is even the spokesperson for the nobles. If he ascends the throne, the power of the nobles will be greatly strengthened."

Alicia nodded.

This is indeed the case.

"So what does your church support?"

Alicia said solemnly, "The Church of Holy Light will not get involved in the politics of any country."

Cana was speechless after hearing this.

Isn't this deception?

The purpose of the Holy Light Church's existence is naturally in conflict with that of the nobles.

Because the Church of Holy Light naturally stands on the side of ordinary civilians.

It must be admitted that this is still a very feudal society.

The Church of Holy Light in each country will naturally play games with the politics of each country.

At a time when he is almost actually participating in politics, he expresses his non-participation at an important moment.

It doesn't make any sense.

It will only make the nobles of this country more powerful, and then suppress the church, resulting in a reduction in the church's power and scope of action.

The Holy Light Church in the entire country has declined.

The inability of the Church of the Holy Light to carry out its doctrinal work in this country will cause the paladins in the church and the priests who wield the holy light to become discouraged.

Choose to leave here and serve in the Holy Light Church in other areas.

This creates a vicious cycle.

This is why the Church of Holy Light was able to quickly establish churches and chapels all over the world.

But after so many years, there is still no real reason for him to have much power.

A power organization whose main body is composed of humans, on the contrary, has insufficient political influence in the human kingdom.

It is even impossible to convert influence into equal power.

There are restrictions in every way.

After this, there is a high probability that the church will split on the human side.

However, a saint like Alicia obviously knew that this statement sounded high-sounding, but was indeed a bit stupid.

He explained with some embarrassment, "However, Lawrence does have a good relationship with the church."

This made Lawrence feel a little embarrassed.

He's not even qualified, so why would he say that? And he certainly didn't come to help because he didn't have much Holy Light.

It was just because of the name of the Holy Light Church that I had some qualifications, but now it’s gone.

"Then, I want to ask, after the other princes become kings, if I want to eradicate the cultists without being restricted, will it be possible?"

Hearing this, the two people opposite shook their heads.

Forget about those princes becoming kings, you can't do it even now.

"In that case, Laurence, what if you become king?"

"What?" Lawrence frowned, a little confused.

Based on the intelligence Kana has shown, it should be clear that Lawrence is no longer qualified.

"I know you want to say you are no longer qualified."

Lawrence nodded.

"But this so-called qualification is just some kind of unspoken rule after all, isn't it?

In name, you are still one of the princes and have the right to inherit the throne."

Lawrence nodded.

“In that case, let’s stop pretending. The Night’s Watch will help you ascend the throne of the Kingdom of Cohen.

I believe the Holy Light Church will also provide assistance."

Alicia nodded silently.

Lawrence frowned.

Look at Kana.

"So, what do you want?"

"It's simple. I want the Night's Watch to annihilate all cultists without hindrance."

"Cultist?"

"Yes, they are definitely cultists who believe in evil gods."

Lawrence looked at Cana.

Are you a real cultist, or are you just a cultist in name only?
“I understand your concerns. After all, the Night’s Watch are outsiders no matter what.

Neither you nor Alicia have a clear understanding of the Night's Watch."

After saying that, Cana nodded at the table twice, as if thinking for a while, and then said: "In that case, I have another request.

That’s the oath you have to take.”

"oath?"

"Yes, that's the oath you must take to become a member of the Night's Watch. It's not to make you a member of the Night's Watch, but to prevent you from becoming a traitor, a traitor to the world.

The purpose of this oath is one: when the world is destroyed, you must stand up, even if it means sacrificing yourself. At the same time, do not betray the world in any way."

Lawrence was not very clear about the oath, and was not sure whether there were some problems hidden in the world that Kana described.

He had no choice but to look at Alicia.

Compared to Kana, he naturally has a high degree of trust in the people of the Holy Light Church.

After all, the two are still tied together even now.

Alicia obviously knew more and nodded.

“I will help check the content of the oath when the time comes. If it is as Khanna said, then there will be no harm.

After all, even if the world is really going to end, what's the point of you not standing up? Can you still survive if the world is destroyed?"

This is stated very bluntly.

Lawrence nodded in understanding.

However, he did not agree or answer, but looked at Kana.

“Although it’s rude to say this, I have to say, does the Night’s Watch have the qualifications to do this?
Why can you push me onto the throne?

As you said, we don't know much about the Night's Watch, and even if we did, I don't think you could do anything.

After all, I don't want to ascend the throne through so-called rebellion and massacre. That's not the result I want."

This was the only scenario Lawrence could think of.

After all, it seems that the only thing worthy of praise about the Night's Watch now is their force.

But there is no point in ascending the throne by killing people along the way.

This is completely inconsistent with Lawrence's philosophy.

Not to mention, it's doubtful that the Night's Watch could actually force him onto the throne.

"Of course, the Night Watchmen have absolutely enough confidence and ability."

When Kana said this.

George, Lurick and others behind him looked around humbly.

They haven't figured out how to do it yet.
