Capítulo 346: Chapter 347: Lynn's Merry Man
Trunsoest took a deep breath to calm his inner turmoil, his smile vanishing from his lips. He asked, "So I lost in the War of the Four Emperors?"
"No, or rather, the only ones who lost were you and Auernia..." Lynn shook his head and replied honestly, "The Trunsoest Empire won, the Six God Alliance won, and you were also a winner, but... you gained nothing."
Hearing this, Trunsoest's eyes narrowed as he looked at Lynn. "Do you mean to say that I died at the hands of the Six Gods?"
"Sorry, I don't know." Lynn shook his head sincerely, "Although I do know your future, I am not omniscient. I can only see a part of the truth."
He looked up at Trunsoest, "And in that part of the truth, you suddenly fell not long after the Trunsoest Empire's victory. After your fall, the uniqueness of the Justiciar became the collection of the God of Combat, and part of the Justiciar's Characteristic went to the Augustus family, with the rest of its whereabouts unknown..."
"Augustus?" Trunsoest did not underestimate Lynn just because he claimed not to be omniscient. He raised an eyebrow, recalling the obedient Augustus family before him, one of the four noble families of the current Trunsoest Empire.
He then asked, "Who supported Augustus?"
"The Evernight Goddess, the Lord of Storms, and... someone who was about to ascend to Sequence 0 in the original history." Lynn didn't hide the truth but couldn't help but smile when he mentioned the last person.
Hearing this list, Trunsoest showed a thoughtful expression, not too surprised, as if he had somewhat anticipated this outcome but hadn't expected it to truly happen.
However, Trunsoest clearly did not fully believe Lynn's words. He then changed his tone, "How can I be sure that your words are not to sow discord between me and the Six Gods?"
"Do I need to? Or do 'you' need me to sow discord between you and the Six Gods?" Lynn smiled and countered. He looked at Trunsoest as if seeing through all his thoughts.
Or perhaps, he truly could.
Lynn naturally possess near-mind-reading abilities to detect others' emotions.
Trunsoest's movements paused, yet there was no panic from being seen through. He remained as composed as an emperor who could ally with Tudor to backstab Solomon, establish the Trunsoest Empire with the Six Gods, and even shake off most of the Six Gods' restrictions.
"Maybe you're telling the truth..." Trunsoest didn't answer Lynn's question, or perhaps he already did. The Justiciar looked at the boy before him and asked, "Then why are you here? Why tell me this? What do you want from me?"
"Me..." Lynn showed a thoughtful expression, tapping his skull as if troubled. After a few seconds, he said, "Actually, I don't know what I can get from you or what I want from you, as I lack nothing."
Trunsoest's movements paused, clearly not expecting such an answer.
"But I like fun..." Lynn suddenly laughed, looking at Trunsoest with a bright smile, "So I want to see what changes would occur if you and Auernia survive the originally doomed future."
"Maybe it will be interesting?" Lynn's tone was leisurely but carried an indescribable allure, "Don't you want to see what that future would be like, Your Majesty Trunsoest?"
Trunsoest's grip on his book tightened subconsciously. He looked deeply at Lynn and said, "I prefer clearly defined transactions over such fun."
"Okay, okay, free things are the most expensive, I understand!" Lynn showed a 'can't do anything about you' expression and nodded with a bright smile, looking at Trunsoest. "You want to win over Amon, Antigonus, and Bethel, right?"
Trunsoest did not deny or show any surprise at this statement.
He vaguely sensed how terrifying Lynn's ability to understand people was. High-Sequence individuals of the Spectator pathway might not see through him, but the boy before him seemed able to.
In front of someone like this, hiding obvious facts was meaningless.
"This seems irrelevant to our transaction," Trunsoest said calmly, though clearly concerned.
"Let's call it a small bonus or a preliminary cooperation before the formal transaction?" Lynn rubbed his chin and said to Trunsoest, "I can help you contact Antigonus and arrange a meeting with Bethel. Whether you can persuade them to support you will depend on your ability."
"Fortunately, I have a significant influence on these two, so you have an advantage in advance."
Trunsoest's eyes showed a hint of thought. He had indeed heard that Libert had a good relationship with the three Kings of Angels of the Mysteries pathways. Even his relationship with Amon was not bad but subtle.
With Libert bridging the gap, his chances of gaining support would undoubtedly increase.
"What do I need to pay?" Trunsoest wasn't blinded by the benefits and asked.
Since it was a preliminary cooperation before the formal transaction, he had to pay something in return.
"Simple, I have a surprise for tonight's banquet, not targeting you, only one of the Six Gods..." Lynn smiled at Trunsoest, "You don't need to do anything, just watch."
"Rest assured, no one will die. I just want to retrieve something that should belong to me."
Trunsoest's pupils contracted sharply as he quickly reviewed the list of attendees for tonight's banquet, including the angels and Sequence 0 participants. He asked in disbelief, "Are you crazy?"
Even as Sequence 0, he wouldn't cause trouble at such a banquet with multiple angels and Sequence 0s.
Or... had Tudor or another true God already infiltrated the banquet?
Trunsoest was momentarily uncertain.
"Heh!" Lynn just chuckled without explaining further. He patted Trunsoest on the shoulder and repeated:
"Just watch."
