Chapter 49 Who is the father and who is the son?
The carriage stopped at an intersection.

In the carriage, Earl Cavendish crossed his fingers, placed the back of his hands under his chin, and said to Deya:
"In two days, I will invite Austin and Laurent to the 'Above Heaven' beer hall."

Earl Austin and Earl Laurent, who were also border earls, formed a line of defense against the Kingdom of England together with the Cavendish family.

These two families were also the biggest victims after the king violated the constitution.

In order to prevent enemy countries from invading their territories, these border families can be said to be "warmongering".

But because of this, the economy was very bad and required a lot of subsidies from the kingdom.

In this situation, the family can only find other ways to make money.

Every noble with real power has a large amount of territory and serfs.

Several noble families headed by the Cavendish family.

In order to make more money, a large number of vassal serfs were liberated and turned into free people in order to increase their work enthusiasm.

This allowed the partial privatization of the economy, fully unleashing the subjective initiative of this group of people who had previously lacked even freedom, and produced a large number of Susaitani specialty products.

These commodities are mainly wool, etc., and Susaitani's wool is famous for its high quality.

Selling goods to the mainland across the strait greatly alleviated the economic pressure on the territory.

The relationship between the Cavendish family and their former vassal serfs has become one of employer and employee.

However, this behavior is tantamount to touching the interests of the grand dukes.

The grand dukes had larger territories, more fertile lands, and controlled more serfs.

If you earls liberate the privately owned serfs, won't our serfs, who are even more numerous, start to cause trouble?

For conservative nobles, land and these serfs are the foundation of their livelihood, and they dare not and cannot go against their ancestors' teachings.

In their view, these nobles, led by the Cavendish family, were simply digging their own graves and giving up their aristocratic status.

"The biggest trouble we are facing now is Duke Hudson."

The Earl said slowly.

Deya frowned: "You mean the navy?"

The Duke of Hudson controls all the kingdom's naval forces and is extremely powerful.

Because the Duke of Hudson had to face the double pressure of the covetousness of the Narbo Empire and the navy of the Kingdom of England.

"Yes, it is the navy. The Duke of Hudson's sister is the king's first wife. He is also the uncle of the eldest prince. He will definitely support the king.

If the seas are blocked and our goods cannot be shipped overseas to earn money, we will inevitably collapse under the economic pressure."

The Earl said with a headache.

Deya thought seriously for a moment, and said to the count:
"Father, leave this matter to me. I can't guarantee that I can make Duke Hudson and the king turn against each other, but I will do my best to make him stop supporting the king."

Earl Cavendish was surprised and asked, "Leave it to you?"

It’s not that he doesn’t trust Deya, but in his opinion, Deya has not fully grown up yet.

But what Deya promised is not so easy to do.

It can even be said that it is almost impossible, otherwise the earl would not have such a headache.

However, thinking that Deya seemed to have some special abilities, the Earl gritted his teeth and decided to trust his son for once: "Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you."

Deya smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will try to get this done within a month, before the 'Day of the Stars' begins."

Now that Deya has some ability to protect itself, it can start to take the initiative to attack.

He wants to control the entire kingdom!
Deya looked at his panel——

Legendary domain of domination: Great Command!

This is a spell that is nearly invincible if used properly, and it is the only legendary realm!

"Father, our King is too shrewd and too proud, which is his weakness.

So even if we embarrass him and stand against him, he will hold back his anger and will not attack us in the short term.

During this time, I will help you deal with those who are monitoring you in the Ministry of Finance. You have to work hard and make more reports that look real to empty the treasury as much as possible! "Listening to the order given by Deya, the Earl's face was full of question marks.

Who is whose father?
……

The King's ball ended just as Lord Cavendish had expected.

The nobles left the palace, still talking about the embarrassing incident involving the king's family and the second son of the Cavendish family who was hiding something very secretive.

I'm afraid that tomorrow morning, all the people of Abrana will know what happened in the palace.

The king's family, especially Princess Theresa, will surely become the laughing stock of the whole of Abranah.

Count Austin and Count Laurent walked together.

Count Laurent, who had a mustache and looked shrewd and mercenary, held his head high and said happily, "It seems that Ruston didn't betray us.

After Deya's behavior, our Majesty must be extremely angry with Ruston and Deya."

Earl Austin beside him said calmly: "This is a good thing. All we need is someone who is decisive, courageous, and strong enough to unite us.

His Majesty will definitely vent his anger on us and intensify the attacks on us, so we need to unite and resist together."

Count Laurent said at this time: "I used to think that Deya was too cowardly and looked down on him, but it turns out that he is so capable.

I really envy Ruston, both of his sons are so outstanding. "

Count Austin laughed and said, "Why? Do you still want to marry your daughter to that boy Deya? Your daughter is already married, right?"

"I can have another one now."

"That's too late."

"Then do you want your daughter to marry him? I doubt your daughter's physique can kill a dragon. Are you going to murder Deya?"

"Oh, you don't understand. Ruston's eldest son is not married yet. I can marry my daughter to him."

Count Laurent was silent.

Damn it, my daughter got married too early!
"Would you like to go for a drink now?"

"Ruston invited us to the beer hall in two days. Let's drink then. Let's take care of ourselves today."

"Alright."

……

Deya returned to his villa and went directly to the basement to begin preparing for the ceremony.

After preparing all the ritual materials, he waited until night fell, then stood in the center of the ritual field and chanted the prayer in the language of God.

A chilly wind blew in the basement, and the ritual offerings in all directions were shaking. A magic circle carved with divine spells slowly emerged under Deya's feet.

at the same time,

In the palace's cemetery, Celeste hid far away, watching the candles near the tombstone of King Susaytani XXI, burning with deep and dim flames.

As the candlelight flickered, a sand dune suddenly emerged from the soil in front of the tombstone.

The sand dune slowly rose higher and suddenly exploded. From the hole, a tall and terrifying ghost crawled out.

There were dark moon-like flames burning in the ghost's eyes. It stood in the void on the grave. As the candles went out one by one, the ghost's body also disappeared into the wind.

Celeste thought about Deya's instructions to her not to take back the candles, so she secretly left.

……

"Your Majesty, this is bad, Your Majesty, the royal tombs... the royal tombs have been robbed!"

"Who is so bold? Which grave was robbed?"

"Yes, it's your father!"

"puff----"

His Majesty the King almost vomited blood.
