12 Brilliant Thunder Dome Light

If it is just a slight effort to settle those private soldiers, the overly enthusiastic people are more difficult for Kirin to deal with than monsters.

When he grabbed the gap and finally slipped into an alley and was panting, he saw Yili standing at the corner in front, raised his hand and greeted him with a chuckling.

"Yo, the courage of the Isere family."

"You unfaithful guy!" Qilin walked over angrily. "I saw that I was surrounded by so many people, and I didn't come out to help!"

The "so many people" mentioned by Qilin certainly refers to the private soldiers in front, but the people surrounding him behind. Yili correctly understood this and shrugged his shoulders and responded to him. "I have no choice. At that time, there were at least two thousand people, right? If I dared to steal the 'our hero' in front of them, they would have to skin me."

"...You are not allowed to call me by that name." Qilin frowned.

"Don't you like it?" Yili said in surprise. "But this is a very honorary title? Whether it is 'the courage of the Isere' or 'our hero', it means that the people are grateful and recognized by you."

"I'm just doing what I want to do, and it doesn't matter what they want to think about it." Qilin said in a quarrel: "It's their freedom to treat me as a hero without authorization, but I don't respond to their obligations."

"Hey, hey, it's too cold? When I saw you rushing out just now, I thought it was the protagonist in the Knight novel that appeared. What are you not satisfied with?" Ily wondered.

"...Those guys are so bored." Qilin hugged his hand in front of his chest, showing an unhappy expression. "When the Prime Minister's soldiers beat them just now, they didn't even dare to raise their hands to resist. When I stood up, no one helped me, but after dealing with those guys, they all ran over and showed their attention and called out some heroes... Tsk, it's so boring."

Qilin kicked a stone away along his legs, and Yili finally understood what he was angry about and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Well, your expectations for human nature are too high. This is what the people are like... Uh, no." Yili slightly revised his opinion. "I mean, it's not OK to use your village as a comparison standard. The outside world is much more complicated."

"Is that true..." Yili's words made Qilin ponder for a moment, then shook his head. "Forget it, I'm just doing what I want to do, and it doesn't matter to me."

"Your simple thoughts are sometimes really enviable..." Yili looked at Qilin with a sigh. "But don't be too harsh on the people. After all, behind those guys is the powerful prime minister. Needless to say, the common people, even ordinary nobles dare not fight against the Embrion family... In the entire kingdom, probably only the King of Lavelis and the Isere family have this courage, right?"

"Speaking of this, who is the sacred Embrion family? What is the relationship with the Isere family?" Qilin asked with the opportunity.

"...It seems that you have not made any relevant preparations for you at all." Yili sighed. Isere did not tell Qilin about the dangerous situation in the royal capital, so I am afraid he didn't want to get him in? But after the incident just now, Qilin could no longer hide. Yili felt that from the perspective of a friend, Qilin should be mentally prepared for the dangers he would face next.

"It's a long story, let's talk while walking." Yili patted Qilin's shoulder and pointed to the front of the alley. "Crossing through this alley, you will reach Fourth Avenue, where the tavern I run is."

………………………………………

Although it is not as good as the Isere family, known as the "uncrowned royal family", the Embrion family is also a prestigious nobleman in the kingdom, and its sudden rise has happened in recent years.

At that time, Duke Isere, who was in charge of the national affairs as the "Duke of the Supplementary Kingdom", was greatly hit by his daughters' departure. He was discouraged and resigned from his post and returned home. He never cared about his country. The vacuum of supplementary Kingdom's supplementary power left by Duke of the Supplementary Kingdom caused fierce competition in the palace, and finally won by Katoshou, the head of the Embrion family. Katos was a man with both ambition and talent. After being appointed as prime minister, he quickly established his own power in the palace. On the one hand, he appointed his confidants as the important matters of the court, constantly weakening the influence of the Isere family, and on the other hand, he also slowly undermined the power of the Wang family through clever means.

In just two years, Catos made the Embrion family a powerful family with great power.

What is strange is that during the rampant Embrion family, the Isere family showed any will to confront each other. If that means, the Duke of Isere could easily crush Catos' ambitions at first, but until now, the Duke has taken an indifferent attitude towards the Embrion family's growth. Noin, the only one in the Isere family who served in the Kingdom Army, was only diligent in completing his tasks.

As a result, the indifference of the Isere family made the Embrion family even more unscrupulous. The children of Embrion, represented by Conrad, were domineering in the royal capital and rampant, causing public resentment. However, Katos, who was concentrating on building power, took an ignorance of all the people who came to file a lawsuit. Later, he simply beat the people who came to complain.

The various evil deeds of the Embrion family made the people complain, and the Duke of Isere stayed in his door, so the people could only ask for help from the Royal Family of LaVillis.

The previous king had a son, and there were currently 24. After the death of the previous king a few years ago, this son ascended the throne and became the new king of the Kingdom of LaVillis. He handled the state affairs with the assistance of the Duke of Iserre. He won the reputation of "a wise king" because of his implementation of a prudent policy. Later, the duke retired for some reason, and the new king appointed Catos as the prime minister to assist in government affairs, but he did not want to attract an uncontrollable evil wolf. The new king, who lacked experience and expectations, could not suppress a strong minister like Catos. The power of the Wang family was emptied step by step under the clever management of Catos.

Until now, even ordinary civilians in the royal capital know that the palace is currently in a dangerous state of the Embrian family dominance, the LaVillis royal family cannot move, and the Isere family is silent. People are speculating about when the Isere family will endure until they take action. As for the current power of the Embrian family, if the two sides conflict, the entire palace will inevitably suffer bloody baptism. Therefore, what Kirin does today is really rash and dangerous...

In a elegant room in a tavern under the Gran Chamber of Commerce, Yili Ping left the maid and spent an hour explaining the situation of the royal capital to Qilin.

However, Qilin denied his bitter warning in just one sentence.

“It’s so boring…”

"Bored?" Yili blinked and didn't react for a while.

"Yes, it's boring." Qilin shook his hands and showed a lack of interest. "Whether it is the Embrion family or the LaVillis royal family, there are more important things than fighting for power and profit? For example, the pirates, even the vicinity of the capital has become their hunting grounds, and the disasters in other parts of the kingdom are probably even more serious? Leave these major issues alone, even if you finally get power and get a country that is about to perish? The struggle of the palace is just a boring thing done by a group of boring people."

"You...you are right." Yili nodded with difficulty, looking at Qilin as if he had re-recognized him.

He always thought that Qilin was a man who liked to do more than to use his brain, but now this understanding was subverted and shattered. In a large amount of intelligence, he instantly grasped the keen perception of the key points and the ability to grasp the overall situation beyond the perspective of the palace. Qilin's simple words contained such a great thing. Among the palace ministers who were busy fighting for power all day long, there was no one with this experience. Even Yili himself did not think of this step.

What shocked Yili even more was that Qilin did not think carefully, but subconsciously answered. The look of no slightest force may be considered as a relaxed thinking for him. Looking at the black-haired young man in front of him, Yili suddenly remembered the saying "Great tricks are not craftsmanship, great wisdom is like foolishness."

(In this way, the reason why Duke Iserre retired was...) Yili felt that he seemed to have grasped some point, but it was not very clear. (There were also kings, and those who should have the power of the kingdom retreated behind... Although it seemed that they had their own reasons, this was not a simple accident...)

Qilin's words made Yili think of the depth that he had never thought about before, and at this time Qilin asked as if he thought of something.

"Speaking of this, Nuoyin is the commander of the 'Cangkong King'? That evil prime minister didn't make things difficult for him, right?"

"That, as far as I know, is not yet." Yili replied. "No matter what, the 'Cangkong King' is the core force to protect the safety of the king capital. Even Prime Minister Catos dare not joke about his own life safety. Besides, taking action against the princess is equivalent to declaring war on the Isere family. At least the Embrion family has no such plan so far, but..." Yili swallowed the words "It will be difficult to say in the future."

"If he hurt Nuoyin, I won't forgive him." Qilin drank the wine in anger.

"Don't worry, even if you don't look at the status of the Iserre family, that male honor is also a female hero called "Huanglei Dome Light". If Embris wants to take action, he must first weigh his own weight." Yili poured wine for Qilin while comforting Qilin. Unlike Tiana's at that time, he no longer dared to see Qilin's declaration as a joke.

"'Huang Lei Dome Light'?" Qilin blinked. "It sounds so majestic. Is it Nuoyin's nickname?"

"Yes, the 'Huanglei Dome Light', one of the three female heroes of the Isere family, is well-known even in the business world!"

"Tell me what you want." Qilin immediately became interested.

"'Huanglei Dome Light' is the title of the Isaire Princess. It seems that famous pilots have their own titles, but I don't know the specific situation, but there is only one thing that can be confirmed..."

"What?" Qilin raised his ears.

"Among the twelve air cavalry corps of the Kingdom Army, 'Huanglei Qiong' has always been a name given by only the strongest pilot, so..." Yili told Qilin with a serious expression. "I suggest you, it's better not to make your sister-in-law angry if you're okay."

"...Well, I remember." Qilin nodded cautiously.
