Chapitre 147: King Brisbois' malice
"We can't deny the fact that this cement is a good stuff but from what I have heard from my underlings that I planted in Azuhai, Virtya is already building a factory that will produce glass and he is also planning to make the carriages move on their own, I don't know how he would make that to happen but there have been activities that showed that he is basically going to work on what he has said about the "self-driven" carriages, I don't know how he would make that happen but to me, I think this new Virtya is very dangerous. I think he is openly making this new things and even selling them to us because he has the backing of the kingdom of Magyo. Therefore, I suggest that we sent an assassin to finish him off or to capture him alive. We can't be left in the dark like this! I feel so agitated, if we can't act up, it is just a matter of time before Azuhai kingdom controls us after we become so reliant to their products." Another duke stood up and said with a pained look.
"Silence!" King Vladislav ordered and the noisy room became quite.
Caressing his chin, king Vladislav said,
"I know better than you guys and unfortunately, I can not do what all of you have suggested." After Vladislav said this, the dukes couldn't be calm anymore. Most of these dukes were big merchants or they were being supported by big merchants and therefore, what king Vladislav had just said didn't bode well with them, they wanted the cement factory for themselves or the cement factory in Azuhai kingdom to disappear so that they could remain on top.
King Vladislav darted a look around and frowned, he raised his arm to silence the dukes and said,
"Magyo kingdom is no longer friends with the kingdom of Azuhai but Azuhai kingdom has decided to forge a diplomatic relationship with the kingdom of Ugley. But it is not Ugley that stops me from trying to invade Azuhai but it is their new weapon... I don't know its name but I have heard of it... Of course, this is a questionable information and therefore, I have put up a team to investigate so that I can be assured if this deadly weapon is still functional and how it works. The good news is that I already have the design of the cement plant and the process that it takes to make this powder, I have set aside a team to work on it and in about a year... We will have our own cement plant..."
Meanwhile in Rusvil, the capital of Magyo kingdom.
A middle-aged man with a handsome face, silver eyes and a robust build could be seen seated on the throne. Of course, this middle-aged man was king Brisbois II, the king of Magyo.
When one stared in his silver eyes, they would realize that it was as deep as an abyss, but in those eyes, there was a calculating look in them and a dangerous aura surrounded them.
King Brisbois' arms were lying on the armrest of his throne and he looked lost and detached. In his right hand, he was holding a knife that was painted with a crimson shade.
A fresh crimson liquid was still dripping from the knife and onto the floor before meandering on the floor and join a large puddle of the same crimson liquid just a metre away from the feet of king Brisbois.
In this crimson puddle, a lifeless body could be seen but this didn't make the cold middle-aged man to smile as the presence of this body made him to frown even more.
"You gave him what was needed, everything was clearly written on those scrolls but he couldn't make those structures depicted on the scrolls. He is so fake. I have to look for a reliable person who will make you pleased with their work." An old man with a scrunched up face, grey hair and a crooked back waved his cane around as he said this to king Brisbois.
"Bu! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!" King Brisbois laughed hysterically but when one listed keenly to his laugh, they would feel that it was a forced laugh and creepy.
While Brisbois was laughing, a young maid walked towards him while trembling.
She was carrying a silver plate that only had a clean piece of linen instead of food.
Brisbois' eyes turned to her and there was nothing in them but malice.
Slowly by slowly, the maid reached where Brisbois was and kneeled down before she presented the plate to Brisbois with her head low.
There was silence at first and this made the chest of the young lady to move inwards and outwards uncontrollably, she was almost out of breath.
When the young maid thought that this silence was going to last forever, Brisbois stretched his hand and took the linen cloth from the plate and wiped the blood from his knife before he kept it to its scabbard.
"Young girl! You are so brave, right?" Brisbois asked unamused while he wiped his hands with the piece of fabric.
