517 Chapter 499: Uncle

Alone, I break up with Finne and walk among the flagships.

I was guided to a flagship room.

It was a surprise to be there.

"This is, this is. It's been a long time. [Uncle Shang]

There was a man in his forties.

His hair is shorter and he looks younger than he was a year ago because of his slender figure.This will be the same as my brother.

"It's been a long time, Arnold."

The man's name is Duke Diethelm von Bergwein.

Father's brother.

The father had five brothers, and the three died against him.The remaining two supported their father and were sealed off by the duke.

His uncle was the third prince, but he was the first important person to support his father and contribute to consolidating the power base.

My uncle took care of the lanterns, and because of that, the other candidates were taken over by my father.

Such an uncle, but after his father took the throne, he received a territory that was too small for the duke, and he was hiding there.Sometimes when I spend time as a family, I show my face.

"Of course, this is the person who didn't show signs of being involved in the second contest for the reign..."

"Let's apologize first."I'm sorry all of a sudden. "

“No, but what can I do for you?Do you have any business from your father? "

"It's none of your business this time."Although I am in hiding, I am in contact with friends from all over the world.And the other day, a crisis announcement came to me. "

Is it the Duchy of Albatro?

"Yes, an envoy from the Kingdom has already entered the Duchy."It seems that the king is under pressure.That's fine, but the aristocrats around them don't seem to rely on such a prince. "

In general, I've grasped the flow of the conversation.

It's going to be a tougher journey than I thought.

"I think we've figured it out, but rebellion is gaining momentum in the Principality."The Prince's attitude is dictated by the swing between the Empire and the Kingdom.The kingdom is better on our side than such a king, so we will give it our full support.If I go now, I'll be sure to get into trouble.There's a high probability of being taken hostage. "

"But if you don't go, the Duchy will be captured."I wonder if the prince needs reinforcements. "

"Let the Duke of Rondine support you."You don't have to go all the way to a dangerous place. "

I often shut up about my uncle's persuasion.

The opponent took the lead.

I'm already behind this. There are only a few things we can do.

But...

"The Third Prince is in charge of the kingdom."He's a little older than me.It didn't appear on the stage after being poisoned, but the genius was a hunch that the king was born. "

"Absolutely. We were in the beginning of the battle against the United Kingdom."While he was there, the Allied kingdom failed to make landfall.But since he was poisoned, the kingdom's army has been in great disarray and has been pushed in until the Holy Maiden comes out.Such a man took the lead.If you don't, you'll lose your life. "

"That may be so, but... if the Principality is taken in, the state of war will be decisive."I know that, so I took the lead.The battle has already begun, and this is where the battle is divided.We have to go no matter what. ”

"I know you want Leonardo to stand up for you."But Leonardo was still young. My brother is still healthy.Meanwhile, the Third Prince of the Kingdom was poisoned.You don't have to go to battle.If you care about your brother, I'll convince you.You don't have to be anxious for a fight. "

The words of my uncle are very easy to understand.

It makes a lot of sense.

However, there was one part I lacked in my imagination.

It was the opponent's strength.

"Uncle, you're a strong opponent."You must also know about your own body.I am not satisfied with creating a stalemate with the Empire.I'm sure if we allow the Duke to enter here, we will continue to cooperate with the Empire and attack the Empire.I know I don't have much time. ”

“I thought about that, too, but will the Empire be betting on that?”

"My father is healthy, but the king is old."The Crown Prince will want to take power as soon as possible.If you keep taking the lead, you'll do exactly what you imagined.We need to get ahead somewhere. and..... "

And what is it?

"It's also strange that I get caught up in the information network on my uncle as soon as possible."I don't want them to come, so I should dare to give them information. ”

"What...?"

Do you think the information will come first from my uncle, who is already in hiding?

Dare to give away information and let it be retained. I see such an intention.

The opponent must be pretty good at it.

"You said I was dancing with my palm...?"

"There's nothing wrong with my uncle.It's dangerous, and the sure thing is to use Lord Rondinet well.However, I couldn't catch up with the 80-point movement even if I was already ahead of the game.I ask for 120 points even if it's dangerous.Forgive me, I'm wasting my time. ”

That's why I opened the door.

There is no point in persuading anyone any more.

Judging by that, my uncle left the room.

“Arnold, I'm proud to be a smart guy.”

"It is only natural that I have succeeded my father to the throne."

"That's right, but they used me so easily." You're a strong enemy, aren't you? "

"Don't worry, we're good at tricking each other."

"I see... I'm going under the Southern Border Guard."If I have to, I'll run with the army. Don't be foolish. "

"Thank you."

After a bow, I see my uncle off on the spot.

My uncle is in hiding.

Regardless of the contest of reign, it's not good to find out that you didn't see much of me, though.

I don't think Uncle would want to get himself involved in a factional conflict.

But he's the one who uses his uncle in hiding well.

It was a strong opponent.

The Third Prince, who commands the kingdom, must also be the master of the emissaries who come to the Duchy.

Well, what's the matter?

My uncle is right.

If you just go, you'll become a hostage.

We need a solution.
