1229 Kane 2
Lifting the fishing rod vigorously, the fish biting the simple hook immediately came to Kane.
"Ha ha……"
After catching the fish, he took the simple hook out of the fish's mouth. Kane laughed twice, and then brought the fish in front of him.
"Little Saiji, I caught you again. It's still the old rule. I won't let you go easily unless you listen to me tell a story."
The fish's mouth opened and closed, and there was a burst of blood bubbles in it.
Holding the fish to his ear, Kane made a gesture of listening.
"Oh, you really know how to bargain, but I happen to like this about you. I like to bargain, so I decided to agree to your request."
Said, Kane put the fish in his hand into the sea.
The shining light reflected the fish's blue-black body and its lifeless fish eyes. Parts of its sides were missing flesh and blood, revealing the neatly arranged fish bones below.
"So, little Serge, which part of the story do you want to hear today?" Kane asked.
"You want to hear the story of the legendary pirate Sylvia? I know, this is your favorite part, but I told you about it yesterday, so today I decided to change the story... about Most Will How about Sen's story?"
Seeing the fish swimming twice on the sea in front of him, Kane said with satisfaction:
"Most Wilson was a nice guy, very generous, kind and compassionate, but born in the wrong era."
As he spoke, Kane moved his eyes away from the fish, and turned to look at the sea in the distance. The sea surface was still stable, and there was an all-encompassing power in it.
"I once saw him at a nobleman's banquet. He is the director of the Freelance Chamber of Commerce in the Erasia region. He also has the status of a nobleman. Of course, it is only a canonization in honor and does not have actual rights."
"King Griffinhart never liked those who belonged to the Chamber of Commerce. He always said that those merchants were using their gold coins to tarnish our good character, but Mostert did not belong to this category. He used his Noble character, won the king's trust."
"Under the leadership of Most, the Chamber of Commerce has flourished in Erasia, and more and more poor people can use their hard-working hands in exchange for a better life that belongs to them.
"
"For foreign refugees, Most also treats them equally. There is no prejudice against identity or discrimination against race. Even a barbarian with green skin, as long as he shows full diligence, he can also be recognized by him."
"However, the good times didn't last long. Most's behavior aroused the dissatisfaction of those nobles. When King Griffon Heart was in power, he could still maintain the stability on the surface. With the queen's coronation, the war of virtue broke out, and Moster died. In the midst of war."
"The investigation revealed that he died at the hands of the refugees, but what kind of refugees can carry out a silent assassination without alarming the high-level guards, and take away all valuable items in the room?"
"No one will believe this result, but under greater resistance, the investigation into this incident was forced to stop, and all those who tried to find out the truth were punished in different ways."
As he spoke, Kane looked at the fish on the water in surprise.
"You don't believe this? Well, let me recall."
"Among them, Hall Iss, the kingdom's number one knight, who vowed to find out the results and punish the murderer, was transferred to Cruelod...or Bracada, anyway, one of the places , and finally died at the hands of barbarians."
"Based on those green-skinned guys, how could they defeat the kingdom's number one legendary knight, or kill him on the frontal battlefield? It must have been something done by those mages. Even if he questioned the order above, the legendary Cavaliers don't deserve to be treated like that."
"Legendary knights... In the whole kingdom, how many legendary knights, let alone like Hall, dedicated their entire lives to the existence of Erathia, and were treated like this just because of his doubts."
"There are many other people who have also been treated in this way. Either they disappeared inexplicably, or they were dispatched to remote areas of the kingdom."
Looking at the fish on the water, Kane was taken aback.
"...You ask me how I know? Several of the original crew members of the Holy Griffin had this experience, even myself."
"Ordinary nobles don't have the ability to do this. If we go deeper, I'm afraid we can find out all the way to our queen."
Kane sighed, resting his hands on the top of his head, trying to soothe the frown between his brows, while keeping his eyes on the water, trying to get an answer from the fish's mouth.
"You're right... It's not a good thing to talk about your own king behind your back, but that's in the past. I'm no longer a knight, but a death knight."
"Undead magic has deeply affected my thinking, allowing me to look at the past events more calmly, or more objectively, from a different angle, you know."
"She doesn't value the good character of people like the old king. What she needs is absolute loyalty. But it is undeniable that Catherine Griffinhart is a real king, worthy of a knight's life, Right, Sage?"
The fish in the water swims twice.
"From this point of view, the necromancer is still interesting, 'Swear allegiance to me, or perish in death.' It's so simple and clear, without any disguise." Kane smiled after imitating the tone of the former necromancer.
Just when Kane was about to continue to say something, his expression suddenly froze on his face, and then burst into ecstasy. Looking at the fish in the water, he said:
"Little Saiji, I just received good news from the undead creature. It's great news. You can't guess what happened."
Pausing on purpose for a while, and showing off to the fish in the water, seeing it swimming in circles, Kane said with satisfaction:
"We have discovered the existence of land in this endless ocean, and there are footprints of human biological activities in it. This is exciting news, isn't it?"
After a pause, Kane nodded, pointed to the fish in the water, and showed a hearty smile at the same time. Of course, if his skin was not so pale, it might be much better.
"Don't worry, I won't leave you alone, soon, you will have other companions." Said, Kane bent down and picked up the fish in the sea. "Let's set sail, to the unknown land."
Following Kane's words, there was a tremor under his feet, and amidst the splashes, a huge pale body emerged from the sea. It was an undead creature stacked together with an unknown number, like a moving island.
