Why had William gone to Rhine City and caused a ma.s.sacre?

He wanted to prove his own strength, as well as his resolution against the Iron Nation .

The a.s.sa.s.sination that was known by almost everyone was his proof of allegiance . It was the foundation of his cooperation with Nedrick .

The Iron Nation was causing trouble at the border, and it had created a tense situation . It felt as if they were about to attack . But this was all a deliberate ploy by the Iron Nation, just a delay tactic . Their desire to delay the war was greater than that of the Black Lava Nation .

Goethe Nasis needed to settle the rest of the aristocrats, and he also wanted the chosen ones to serve in .

While dragging time seemed to be beneficial to both countries, the more time the Iron Nation received, the more stable their domestic situation would become . With more military power, the Iron Nation would become even stronger . But if the Black Lava Nation disregarded some of their losses and initiated an attack at the current time, the results yielded would be better .

Of course, Nedrick knew what was happening in the Iron Nation, but he was not daring and resolute . He wanted to use gentle methods to settle the issue of the throne .

William, an outsider, had pointed out this secret . Of course, he knew that time was tight . If he could send his troops out, many unexpected things could happen .

For example, the unhappy aristocrats in the Iron Nation might get the courage to rebel .

In the black palace .

Nedrick looked at the sand table . He smiled subtly . “If we are able to bring down the Iron Nation, why does the lord of the City of Dawn think that I will give him one-third of the winnings?”

Renekton said in a low voice, “Considering the numerous chosen ones and his ident.i.ty, as a neutral Lord, he will definitely not want land . ”

“Do you think that if 500 thousand chosen ones appear on the battlefield, they will be able to destroy a legion?”

Renekton said, “No . The chosen ones are like scattered grains of sand . They are no match for any legion . ”

“Even though they could revive after dying, I have observed them . Some of them no longer want to fight after dying several times . Their strength has also decreased . This means that they are cowardly . ”

“Then do you think that Marquis Chris will actually listen to him?”

Renekton hesitated slightly . He said, “No . But in face of the overall situation, Marquis Chris will be completely loyal to you . ”

Nedrick laughed . He laughed very happily . “A half-elf with a tainted bloodline? Why should I share my winnings with me? If I place the winnings on my territory, will he dare to send troops over to steal them?”

“My King, you are brilliant . ” Renekton knelt on the ground . His gaze was full of admiration .

William did not know what Nedrick was thinking . He did not care about whether he would hold up to their agreement .

He arrived at the home of a Count .

A young man dressed in a black, elegant robe was pouring tea and alcohol for him .

William drank the fruit wine and laughed . “Curry, you are a Count . If you do this, people would think that you are shameless . ”

Curry glanced at the female slaves, who were dressed scantily . He waved at them and asked them to go down . Then, he smiled . “Lord, I respect you like how people respect G.o.ds . It is not something that can be expressed through pouring tea and alcohol . I hope that you will understand . ”

“Curry!”

“Yes . ” Curry heard William's strict tone . He immediately got up and walked beside him .

William played with the wine gla.s.s . Suddenly, he said, “Do you just want to be a Count for the rest of your life?”

“Thud”

Curry gulped . He was touched and said, “I still want to be a Marquis…”

“Just a Marquis?” William sighed in disappointment and got up . But just as he was about to leave .

“Lord!” Curry suddenly knelt in front of William . He clenched his fist and said in a low voice, “I have 1000 soldiers under me . They are not very strong yet . I know that one's ambition is a.s.sociated with how strong they are . ”

Then, Curry's eyes sparkled as he looked at William . “But I believe in you, Lord . If you support me, I will be able to stand at a higher ground and see even further . I believe that you will not allow me to just be a Marquis . ”

William sat down on the chair . He pondered . “Then what do you think I should make you do . ”

“Let me be your dog . If you want me to be a Marquis, I will become a Marquis . If you want me to be a Duke, I will become a Duke . But no matter what, I remain your dog . ” Curry crawled on the ground . His eyes were full of desire for power .

If he was not a true aristocrat, he would never know how satisfying it was to have power .

That was right .

It was satisfying!

It was a simple word .

But it could clearly represent everything .

You could obtain the prettiest woman in your territory . Someone who was a G.o.ddess in the eyes of others could climb into your bed at night . She would do everything she could to get you .

You could deliberately misinterpret things, and anyone whose position was lower than yours had to curry favor with you . They had to say that you were right . They had to admit that the deer you pointed to was a horse, if you said so .

You could behave unscrupulously . You were the king of the territory .

However, this power could only be used in your territory .

Curry wanted to possess greater power!

William laughed, and his laugh sounded like Nedrick . He used the tip of his foot to raise Curry's chin and looked at his eyes that were full of desire . He smiled . “Remember, as a dog, you have to understand that even if you become a King in the future, you will still be my dog . You are simply a dog with unfounded power .

“Though, it is difficult to be a King . However, you can at least be the most powerful person besides the King . ”

Curry's entire body trembled . He crawled on the ground and kissed William's shoes . He even seemed to be licking the dust off his shoes .

William kicked him away and picked his eyebrows . “Tell Marquis Chris that I want to see him at the palace tomorrow night . Ask him to come alone, I only want to see him . ”

“Yes . I will do it now . ” Curry crawled away . Only when he reached the gate, did he dare to stand up and leave .

When he walked out of this door, he was an aristocrat whom ordinary people were no match for .

When Curry first encountered William, he had discovered William's ambition .

Now, One year later, he found that William's ambition had rapidly inflated and only grown stronger, like the City of Dawn . It even rivaled the two human nations .

Curry understood something .

The half-elf prince had the support of Elfin royalty and the ambition of a human .

At least, Curry felt that if he gambled correctly, he would become a Marquis who was above many people and under one person . He would even have the chance to become King .

Curry also understood that if he did not grasp this opportunity, being a Count would be the limit for him . If he wanted to climb higher… it would be extremely difficult .

But he was ambitious . He had the ambition to continue climbing up!

Power!

It was something that captivated many people .

As long as one had power, they would be able to taste the beautiful taste of being powerful .

This was the main reason why so many people in power did not want to give up their power, even if they had become old and were about to die .

“From master's actions, it seems as if he wants to start a fight . He wants to obtain benefits from the war between the two nations . But what methods will he use to make the two nations fall into his hands?” Curry could not understand .

He also knew that he should not be thinking about this . His strength was ordinary, and thus, he was like a dog . He had to think of ways to trick Marquis Chris .

When William watched Curry leave, the corners of his lips curled .

The aristocrat system was not very good, but he liked it . He never had the intention to overthrow the aristocrat system .

“Since becoming an NPC, I have to always keep it in mind . I only have one life!”

William stood up and narrowed his eyes . “If I want to control my destiny, I have to possess power . ”

He clenched his fist . The power in his fist could cause an ordinary wall to collapse . He shook his head . “It's still not enough . I don't have nearly enough power . I can't even break through a city wall . What is this world?”

“What I want is not that simple…” William walked out and looked at the sky . No one knew how great his ambition was .

Perhaps…

His ambition…

Was as high as the sky?

Perhaps .

It was not so simple .
