Chapter 142 (2)
The 1st prince, who had thought of something, asked his staff.
"Has there been any movement from the surrounding mercenary groups?"
The staff all shook their heads in response to the 1st prince's question.
How could the mercenary groups dare to do anything to offend both him and Calman?
At most, if the 2nd prince had a chance to win or if the guild offered an irresistible amount, they might consider it.
However, since neither of those things were happening, the 1st prince couldn't help but continue to see the 2nd prince's participation in the Crown War as pathetic.
'If there's no movement from the mercenary groups, then it doesn't seem like the guild is determined to push for him. If I were the guild leader and really wanted to support Christian, I would have looked into the mercenary groups first.'
"The fact that the mercenary groups are quiet seems to indicate that the guild doesn't have much intention of stepping in."
Trinity expressed one concern.
"But what if Ismail helps out of fear?"
At that remark, the 1st prince shook his head.CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m
Lee Han was close with Christian, but from the beginning, Lee Han had been protecting the Lyon guild leader, for money.
"It's difficult because of Lee Han. If Lee Han takes the side of the wealthy guild leader, neither Christian nor Ismail will be able to do anything."
When the conversation turned to Lee Han, Trinity had no choice but to agree.
"That's true. He definitely sided with the guild leader back then."
"Maybe it's more accurate to say that the guild doesn't care about Christian's opinion. If they trust Lee Han, they could do that."
"Then was what we talked about back then true? They pretended to help because of the union and integration."
"That would be a good thing."
At that moment, a military officer hurriedly ran and shouted to inform everyone inside the tent about the situation outside.
"Prince Ryan! The opposing camp has started a preemptive attack with magical bombardment!"
Indeed, the 3rd prince, Calman, who was growling and confronting him directly, was the problem rather than the 2nd prince, who was hiding like a rat.
"Can the Order change its position so easily?"
Rockefeller thought of Bishop Verkis, who had gone to the Papal Court and sent good news from time to time.
Verkis, who had become financially wealthy, had regained his once-good relationship with the Pope and was getting along well with some high-ranking officials who had once discarded him.
It was all thanks to Rockefeller holding their interest tightly.
'They can't even dream of high deposit interest if they are not liked by that person.'
The surprising thing was.
There were many believers within the Church who were obsessed with money and were corrupted.
'I already knew from the novel that the Church was corrupt. But I didn't expect them to reveal so much greed about money. After all, people are all the same.'
Especially, the believers who were swayed by high deposit interest forgot the doctrine that rejected interest and used the excuse of a few who had already received the benefit to come to Rockefeller.
And all of them, one by one, were manipulated by Rockefeller, changing their positions to praise or support Bishop Verkis' will. For this reason, Bishop Verkis' position in the Order was rapidly rising day by day.
He even formed his own power.
'His Excellency the Bishop said he was positive about the position of the Secretary, so we'll know if we wait a little longer.'
"Wait and see. There's nothing to be solved by just tapping our feet."
Her husband, who was so laid-back about something that wasn't his family affair, irritated her.
"Don't forget why I married you."
"Don't worry. Everything is going well."
Rockefeller, who was slightly glared at by his wife, had no choice but to bow his head.
'You don't trust people very much. Well, I wouldn't look kindly on someone who relies on their intuition either. But what can I do? My intuition is true.'
He was not completely ignorant of what was going to happen in the future and knew it very accurately.
The world that would unfold.
'Everything is in my hands.'
