Chapter 112 Levi VII
Chapter 112 Levi VII
In a palace in Fuyue City, the capital of the Omo Empire, in the center of the Holy Orleans district.
"boom!"
An old man with disheveled hair angrily slapped the thick white marble square table with his hands. Tiny cracks then spread all over the originally smooth and flat table top. The continuously spreading cracks indicated that this priceless table was about to break into pieces.
"What qualifications do those nerds in Ornolan who only know how to study magic have to point fingers at me! The battlefield in the east of Swart is a rare and fertile land. Any country with a little bit of strength will rush to divide up the wealth there. Our Omo Empire is so powerful and has the advantage of being close to the water. Shouldn't we take the biggest bite of the fat meat?"
The speaker was the current emperor of the Omo Empire, Levi XVII - Levi Onandi. This elderly man had been ruling the Omo Empire for thirty-four years.
The old emperor, who is already in his seventies, has never forgotten the expectations his father, Enda IX, had when he named him. Levi means attack, and the previous sixteen emperors of the Omo Empire named Levi had all expanded the territory of the Omo Empire during their tenure.
However, during the decades when Levi XVII ruled the country, the situation in the Central Plains was extremely stable and there was no place to send troops. Seeing that he was almost eighty years old, the old emperor was very anxious because he was very likely to become the first Levi emperor in history who did not expand a piece of land for the empire.
Today, the situation in the eastern part of the Swart Empire is in chaos. Dozens of small countries in the Central Plains are experiencing internal political turmoil due to the war between the White Sun Sect and the Southern Xinjiang Elf Kingdom. There was even a farce in which the king was changed three times a week.
The chaotic situation in the east gave the elderly Levi XVII the only opportunity to expand the Omo Empire. For the glory of Levi's name, the old emperor must let the Omo Empire profit from this foreign war.
In front of the old man stood a group of nobles from the Omo Empire dressed in gorgeous clothes. Most of them were middle-aged and elderly people, and among them was Earl Cullennan Campbell, who was only in his early thirties. His straight back and thick brown hair made him stand out among the old nobles.
A fat middle-aged man with sparse hair bowed slightly and said indignantly to the old emperor on the throne: "My guards found out a few days ago that the old professors from Ornolan Academy even went to persuade the forgers of the Dwarf Craftsmen's Association, trying to persuade those skilled dwarf masters to refuse to continue making weapons for our brave soldiers."
The old emperor was furious when he heard this, and immediately asked the fat middle-aged noble to tell him the information in detail. Then he looked at the other strong middle-aged man with a gloomy face.
Looking at the man with a calm expression as if it had nothing to do with him, the old emperor suppressed his anger and asked, "Principal Fram, can you explain what Duke Koff just said?"
After Flam raised his head slightly to look at the old emperor, he said calmly, "There's nothing to explain. It's just that a few old professors of the academy went to visit their old friends in the Dwarf Craftsmen's Association in their free time. Even if I am the president of Ornolan, I can't interfere in the private lives of the professors of the academy."
Duke Kefu, who was standing by, immediately said sarcastically, "Since when did those old professors from the elves become friends with the dwarf foundry masters? It's a pity that those simple-minded foundry masters are being used by some people with bad intentions again."
"Duke Kefu must be aware that Ornolan Academy introduced casting courses a hundred years ago. There are several dwarf casting masters teaching in the academy now. You are a little ignorant."
"you......"
Seeing Duke Kove and Fram about to quarrel, the old emperor clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's hand this matter over to the lawyers to investigate. Those old professors should tell everything after they go to the law office."
The Law Office is a violent law enforcement agency directly under the emperor of the Omo Empire. Unlike the royal troops of the Omo Empire who go on expeditions abroad, this is a special force that specifically targets illegal and criminal activities within the country.
Hearing the word "law firm", Frame frowned instantly. Almost everyone knew that there was never a case that the law firm could not solve.
Most suspects would voluntarily confess the case after being brought in by the judge, or be carried out directly as corpses.
Fram wanted to say something but was stopped by Earl Campbell. Then the elegant and easy-going young earl slowly said to the old emperor: "In fact, what Duke Kov just said is not complete."
Hearing that it was Earl Campbell who spoke, the old emperor immediately put away his anger and asked calmly, "Oh? Earl Campbell, do you have anything else to add?"
After looking at Duke Korfu, Cullennan said calmly, "Actually, that day, several old professors from Ornolan brought some dwarf craftsmen to the Church of the Bright Moon Goddess to pray. Archbishop Olaf received them, and I happened to be praying in the church that day."
After saying this, Cullennan returned to Fram and stopped talking. The palace immediately fell silent. The nobles looked at the frowning Kove with strange expressions, then glanced at the expressionless Earl Campbell, but in the end they all remained silent.
Not long after, the old emperor sitting in the main seat sighed softly and said, "Fram, go back and ask those old professors to write me a detailed explanation of what they did and said that day. The law firm is busy and short of staff, so we won't get involved in this matter."
Upon hearing this, Fram bowed and nodded in response. He glanced at Earl Campbell beside him without leaving a trace, and then stared straight at Duke Kovf, who had a grim expression on his face.
