He used up the last bit of his strength and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Your Highness, I, my family..."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of them."
Green drew out his dagger and blew it gently. Scarlet blood dripped onto the ground and turned into plum blossoms.
He snapped his fingers, and a huge three-headed hellhound walked out of the void and pounced on him with bloodshot eyes.
Before long, the corpse on the ground was eaten clean, as if nothing had happened.
Green's face was still ugly, but it finally had a little more color.
His emotions didn't fluctuate much.
There will naturally be a price to pay for not doing things well.
That bastard Porgy had ruined his big plan and must pay with his life.
After staring at the hellhound for a while, Green opened the transmission channel and sent the hellhound back to its world.
The air was filled with the smell of sulfur, the power of the abyss.
He sighed softly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He has no way out.
She played with her father's woman, killed her father when the truth was revealed, and even signed a contract with the Lord of the Abyss.
He had already gone far away.
Since he has already paid so much, he can only stick to the same old trick until the end.
Fortunately, the Oro people have freedom of belief and emphasize pragmatism, and in the past some of them have cooperated with the Demon Lord from the abyss.
Without exception, these people gained powerful strength, and then suffered backlash.
Will he be the only exception?
There was a hint of bitter smile on Green's lips. Although he was confident, he did not think he was special enough to escape the iron law.
Since you have to pay the price sooner or later, enjoy your life before you pay the price.
He wants power, strength and the ultimate enjoyment in the world!
Although Lily is his biological sister, she is his enemy if she stands in front of him.
Don't hold back on your enemies.
Lily must die, and Roland must be buried with her.
He was absolutely sure of this.
He knew that Roland's true strength was no less than that of an ordinary sixth-level warrior. He would never underestimate his enemy and was even prepared to deal with two sixth-level warriors.
......
Just as Green was killing his men in a rage, Roland, who was temporarily staying in Lily's bedroom, completed his final calculations and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Lily did not contact the ministers, she did not do nothing.
Over the past year, she has used the name of a merchant group to conduct inspections around the world, contacted local lords and various forces, and established a very complete intelligence network.
She doesn't have powerful weapons, but she has sharp eyes and ears.
She had a very clear understanding of the power that Green could mobilize.
Not only did she know that Green had those hidden powers, she also knew that Green didn't know that she already knew it.
With Roland in charge, this battle is a sure win.
Senate, three days after the old king's burial.
All grudges and hatreds must be resolved eventually.
Brutus, the president of the Senate, had privately communicated with Lily and Green. Both sides stated that they inherited the throne for the sake of the country, but they could not compromise on this matter.
Brutus could guess the result, so he said no more and just notified them to go to the Senate for a face-to-face debate.
They had to convince the senators in the debate.
After the debate, the elders will weigh the pros and cons and make a choice.
Both Lilly and Green pledged to renounce the use of a military coup to seize power.
They will decide the winner in the Senate.
This was probably the only good news Brutus ever heard.
There may be civil unrest, but it is better than civil war.
The debate will start at nine in the morning.
At about half past eight, Roland accompanied Lily and served as her assistant.
Behind them came Lily, Melanie, Sophia, and Granny.
According to convention, the debate team should not have more than seven members, but Roland did not find anyone to fill the last vacancy.
Today's Senate is destined to be a bloodbath.
It would be a waste of time to allow weaker people to participate in such occasions.
There are enough of them.
At the gate of the Senate, Lily and Green met again.
They both stopped at the same time and looked at each other for a long time.
Their entourage also stopped.
The eagle statue above the Senate looks up to the sky, just like it did three eras ago.
Under the feet of the goshawk, there have been many times when tensions were drawn and blood was splattered on the long steps. Even if it happened again this time, it would not be a big deal.
Brutus, the president of the Senate, stood on the steps, looking at Lily and Green silently.
He was a little tired.
If these two guys started fighting outside, he would not support either of them, and even hoped that Lucy would inherit the throne.
The Kingdom of Oro is a big country and it needs to be respectable.
Fortunately, Lily and Green both knew this, so there was no conflict on the steps.
After all, they all felt that they had won.
Since you are sure to win, you should show your vision and magnanimity.
"Your Highnesses, please come in."
Brutus was relieved to see that they were sensible and invited them into the Senate.
The Senate itself is a sacred artifact. Even if a forbidden spell is released in the Senate, it will not leak out.
As long as he doesn't agree, don't even think about putting any magic in there.
This is the power of the artifact [Forbidden Cage].
Only the gods can break this cage.
Lily and Green withdrew their gazes from each other, smiled, and walked into the door.
They were calm and composed, as if they were attending a meeting rather than a life-and-death battle.
When entering the Senate, Roland's eyes swept behind Green.
Green was accompanied by six people, one of whom was approximately level four in strength, and was obviously a think tank-type strategist.
Except for this person, all others are quasi-sixth-level and sixth-level strongmen.
Even Green himself is a fifth-level master.
As expected of the former crown prince of the Oro Kingdom, his strength is indeed impressive.
Roland vaguely felt that the most dangerous person in the Green camp was himself.
The two parties each took their seats in the designated areas.
After everyone was seated, Brutus announced the start of the debate.
The debates for the throne follow a fixed routine, and Lily and Green's think tank team have already prepared the relevant materials, so it is not difficult for them at all.
The elders sat in the judging panel and reviewed the materials submitted by both parties.
Green's approach is to maintain stability.
Lily's angle of entry is the rule.
There is no order without rules.
Even if she is not competent, as long as there is no proof that she will bring disaster to the country, the throne must be hers.
If she makes mistakes in the future, the Senate will set things right. She must not directly violate the inheritance law just because there may be hidden dangers.
She doesn't need to explain the harm of trampling on inheritance law, everyone here understands it.
Although many elders were bribed by Green, the vast majority of them were neutral.
These elders were either royal relatives or great nobles. They were all old foxes who had been in the political arena for many years. Naturally, they understood that what Lily said was right.
If the Kingdom of Oro was facing a crisis of life and death now, perhaps they would be more inclined to Green, but now is a time of peace, and even if Lily's ability to govern the country is weak, she cannot break the rules.
After seeing that the two had stated their views, Brutus announced that they would enter the second stage, in which the two would ask each other questions and answer them.
Through debate, the elders can have a deeper understanding of them and make the right choice.
The debate session began with challenger Green asking the first question.
Green stood up, his eyes grim, staring at Lily.
Obviously, he lost the debate.
Even though he had better debating skills, Lily just insisted on one point.
Both the First and Second Dynasties of Oro were destroyed due to issues of succession rights.
The current Third Dynasty has completely abandoned the old system of succession, which has allowed the dynasty to continue to this day.
The law of succession is the foundation of a country and cannot be shaken.
Green took a deep breath, knowing that he only had one last trick left to win the debate.
He asked slowly, "Can you swear like the queens of the past that you will not marry or have children?"
"This is also a rule."
His expression was very calm, and the chances of his oath to the sacred tree coming true were very high. As long as Lily didn't get carried away or had evidence, she would have to back off.
He struck while the iron was hot and put forward conditions for persuading the enemy to surrender.
"Sister, as long as you give up the throne, I will guarantee your safety and freedom."
These words almost made Lily laugh. She teased with disdain, "Are you forgiving me unilaterally?"
"I can't explain forgiveness, I just hope for reconciliation."
"Reconcile with a parricide? I can't do it."
Lily sneered, and suddenly came to the podium, put her right hand on her chest, and swore loudly:
"I, Lily Inaldi Oro, swear to the previous kings and the great sacred tree that if I inherit the throne, I will remain unmarried for the rest of my life and give the throne to Lucy or her child."
The whole audience was silent, even Green was dumbfounded.
If Lily, the crown princess, can't win even with this big move, then there's something wrong with the referee.
Fortunately, Brutus was fine.
He quickly raised the gavel in his hand and knocked it down.
"Okay, now it's Princess Lily's turn to ask questions."
Lily was too lazy to talk nonsense with Green and asked directly: "Can you swear to Shenmu that you did not participate in the murder of your father?"
If you swear an oath to the gods, there may still be a chance of escape.
Anyone who swears an oath to the sacred tree will be punished by heaven.
Green knew he had lost the debate.
