623 Financial support

Only after becoming a king can you know how hard it is to become a king, especially if you want to be a king with some achievements.

He could not finish the government affairs, prevented endless open and secret struggles, various open and secret interest disputes, as well as the current national policies and development considerations, everything was destroying the young king's nerves. Only then did he realize how free and easy life he lived when he was the eldest prince.

But since you have already sat in this position, there is no way out.

The throne stands on the top of the peak, surrounded by cliffs, only upwards, not downwards.

Once it is removed, it will be crushed to pieces.

The king sat in the living room for a while and saw the familiar young man coming over.

He nodded slightly to himself and then sat down.

"Even if you don't respect me in your heart, you have to pretend to be a polite." The young king looked at the other young man and said unhappily: "I'll give you your territory."

Beta smiled and said, "As the Pope, I am just a little sect now, but it also represents the face of my own goddess. If I salute you, it means that our God's sect surrenders to you. Do you think it is possible, Your Majesty?"

"Yes, you are the pope now." The young king laughed at himself: "In terms of status, you are equal to me. Sometimes this world is very unfair. For the sake of the throne, I gave up a lot of things, even the father-son family affection, promised many benefits to all forces, and worked hard to get this position. And you... became the pope quietly, and you are the kind of pope who is very favored by gods. You don't have to dirty your hands, and your fate is really different between people."

Beta came here, but he didn't listen to the other party's complaints. He said helplessly: "Your Majesty, there are so many people who envy you. Don't always look at me. In fact, it's not easy to sit in my position."

The young king thought about it, as well. In the eyes of the secular world, the pope and the king were on par. They would probably encounter many things that would make them feel sick. After all, in a divine religion, there would definitely be no less conflicts of interest than a kingdom.

If he figures out this, he will feel much more comfortable.

If it is an ordinary pope, it is indeed as the king thinks, and he will be troubled by many interests, but Beta is different. He is first a lord, then a pope, and most importantly, he and Wokin are friends and have the same relationship.

Unlike other popes who racked their brains to please their gods, Beta didn't need to do such things.

And he said it was not easy for him, it was just a humble word.

But the king believed it and smiled and said, "Yes, then what's wrong with you coming to me this time? Don't just want to kill me."

It seemed like a joke, but Beta still heard two points of seriousness from it. The latter laughed and said, "If you can remove several master-level assassins in the dark room, your words will be more convincing."

Even if someone exposed it, the king said calmly: "You are a master-level strongman, I am just an ordinary person. Of course, I have to make some preparations when meeting you alone. OK, let's not talk about this anymore, what's the matter if you come to me?"

"It's not a big deal. It's just that some time ago, an army went to Isnais City and then suddenly disappeared."

His Majesty the King narrowed his eyes and his tone was a little unfriendly: "Do you want to help Emma come and tell me the truth?"

Because the army sent by the king, without the junction Emma, ​​went directly to the Isnais territory, which was itself a demonstration for its lord.

The king thought Beta came because of this.

Beta shook his head: "I don't want to pay attention to any small dispute between you and Emma, ​​and I don't care whether it's a small dispute. As long as you don't hurt her life, what I care about is the whereabouts of that army and its purpose."

"Since you don't care about Emma's little dispute with me, what is that for?" The king's face eased significantly: "Don't tell me, you want to be my military adviser?"

The politicians speak in this way, and the words are hidden. Beta pretended not to understand the meaning of the king's words and said slowly: "I know where and why that army is going. After all, there is a demon kingdom below that place, and I will tell you."

The king was silent for a while and said helplessly: "You also want to persuade me to stop increasing troops there?"

A trace of disdain and disappointment flashed in the king's eyes.

"No, on the contrary, I support your decision."

These words surprised the king. His originally drooping eyelids opened completely, with another strange light in his eyes.

"Why?"

"Because I can see that if the demons in that underground kingdom are not restricted, as long as one hundred years or two hundred years, we will definitely suffer. The demons are very powerful, and the longer they live, the stronger they become. When their number reaches a certain level, they will be incomparable."

"The powerful demon clan is less than ten thousand, and if they are more than ten thousand, they will be invincible."

Beta smiled and said the famous quotes in the game. Then he continued: "If it is a chaotic and evil demon race, the more they are, the more they will fight in the internal battle, and the greater their self-consuming power will be, and there will be no threat to us humans."

The king took a deep breath: "But the order-neutral demons are different. They consume very little by little. One day the underground world will not be able to satisfy their survival resources. Then, the first thing that is to be involved is our Holeven."

"I thought there would be at least a few people who could understand this decision, but I didn't expect that except you, the other ministers and lords, would all be opposed."

"Even if I put the truth before them, they won't listen."

The king looked so angry that he was not as strong as steel.

"Because this is too far away for them, after all, it will happen a hundred or two hundred years later. They are more concerned about the continuation of their family."

The king snorted: "But I have to guarantee the future of the Holevin Kingdom... Then again, if you say you support me, how can you support me? Is it verbally support?"

Looking at the king with a joking look, Beta said, "Money support. Our Wealth God Cult now has not many people and is not very good at fighting, so we will provide a military fund every six months, ranging from one thousand gold coins to two thousand, depending on the situation. The specific usage method will be decided by Your Majesty, and I will not ask about it anymore."

The king was stunned for a while, and then said half resentful and helplessly: "Can you support one thousand to two thousand gold coins in half a year? Your God Cult is really rich. I, as a king, may not be able to get this number in three years."

Beta smiled: "After all, we are the Goddess of Wealth, the goddess of business and wealth, and making money is the only thing we are good at."
