Chapter 581 Is the truth really that important?
Daines Reeb looked at the photo in his hand and felt a chill run down his spine.
His voice trembled slightly as he said, "The King's... Blood Hand?!"
Dain considered all the candidates, including Capitano, at least that man had a sense of justice. But why would Villette recommend him?
Everyone knows that Han Yu is the Black King's number one executioner!
Imagine you're plotting to seize power in Inazuma, and someone recommends you seek help from Kujo Sara, a die-hard fan of the shogun. It's utterly absurd.
“Mr. Na Villette, you mean…” Dain frowned and looked at the other man, as if he wanted to hear from him that it was just a joke.
Navelette actually nodded solemnly to Dain, seemingly quite certain that this was indeed the person she was looking for, someone with whom she shared the same ideals.
Han Yu's plan was simple: he wanted to personally participate in the operation led by Dain and the other five Great Sinners to save Dain's brother, the prophet Viserfnir.
His brother was punished by having his eyes gouged out for advising the Black King. As a prophet, he could use astrological abilities to glimpse the future; these were merely Han Yu's conjectures, and it was probably related to the Abyss.
In Raelil's memory, someone was always whispering in his ear. But through Raelil's explanation, it is known that the voice was Vesevernil.
Some speculate that the Abyss imitated the latter, but Han Yu actually suspects that it may be related to the power of the Abyss, deliberately bewitching those with ambition to strip them of this power. As for the reason, it remains a mystery to this day.
“Mr. Navelette, I have always respected you as a person, but you want me to find an executioner, someone with intricate connections to the Black King?” Dain’s attitude was resolute. The King’s Blood Hand, Han Yu! Absolutely unbelievable.
There was a knock on the door of the Din family's house!
"it's me."
Recognizing the voice as Raelil's, Dain went to open the door.
The door opened slowly, and Raelel stepped aside to make way. "Dains Reeb."
Upon seeing the newcomer, Dain immediately became alert, his gaze sweeping towards his sword.
"Could it be that Raelil has betrayed us?" Dain's first thought was that the other party had betrayed them.
Han Yu took off his uniform, went inside, gave Navelette a brief greeting, and then sat down on the sofa.
"What? Mr. Dain, won't you serve your guest a cup of tea?"
Dain's eyes narrowed with tension. He was startled and quickly tried to figure out how to escape. It seemed his plan had been exposed, and the Black King was ready to make his move.
"Don't be so nervous. Just as Grand Inquisitor Vilette said, I am indeed here to help you." Han Yu's appearance didn't seem like that of someone who had come to surrender.
“I already know about your brother's situation, and I'm very sorry. Visefnir was kind to me in the past, and I've come here today…”
Han Yu was halfway through his sentence when he turned his gaze to Daines Reeb, wanting to see his reaction.
"Did my brother do you a favor?"
Dain recalled that his brother seemed to have never had any contact with him whatsoever.
"Stop guessing. There's a lot you don't know," Han Yu said bluntly, meaning, "Everyone has secrets. What? You don't know everything about your brother, do you?"
Then Han Yu and Dain discussed in detail the plan to save his brother Viserfenir.
"Although I am one of Black King's men, I, Han Yu, am also a grateful person, because it's not pleasant to owe someone a favor."
At this time, Dain was only in her twenties or thirties and her thoughts were still very simple. Her brother, as an important figure in the court, probably had a lot of interactions with other important officials.
This dispelled Dain's concerns. In fact, Han Yu hadn't had much contact with Viserfnir at all.
“The Black King is wavering; if he continues like this, Kanria may be destroyed.”
What Dainesreb is most worried about is not the future Extreme Knight, but the Golden Rhinedoth.
The woman was not highly regarded by Dain. Her research also focused on life forms related to the Abyss. However, the bigger picture was more important at the moment, and in order to save his brother, he had no choice but to win over this group of people.
"Don't worry, Dain," Rael said, patting him on the shoulder.
After leaving Dainesreb's house, Han Yu returned to his own residence.
Dinner was cooked by the three Fus: Fukaros, the eldest, was in charge of the Fontaine-style stew, and Funina, the second, prepared dessert.
Nefer is quite well-rounded; she is proficient in the cuisines of many countries, and she probably enjoys collecting information about food in her spare time.
"You two are really late," Fukaros said, putting down her apron and setting the dishes on the table.
"Funina, dinner's ready."
Han Yu suddenly felt a little warm at this scene.
"Okay~ I've already put the cake in the oven, just wait a moment... set a timer." Funina's voice came from the large kitchen.
At dinner, Han Yu was curious about what happened to the prince he had judged at the end.
"According to Article [number] of the Canria Law..."
Vilet rattled off a whole bunch of Kanria laws and regulations; the Water Dragon King's memory was truly impressive.
"Didn't the prince hire someone to defend him or plead for a reduced sentence?" Funina asked curiously.
Navelette nodded. "Just as Furina said, the prince did indeed hire someone to defend him."
Han Yu had a bold guess: "You didn't sentence all those people, did you?"
The other party simply nodded slightly, confirming the guess.
Nefer ate her meal quietly, but inwardly she was thinking about the current Grand Inquisitor of Kanria.
She later discovered through investigation that the prince had done many illegal things, the most outrageous of which was that Navelette uprooted this group and carried out a complete purge.
As for why the Black King doesn't care?
"Actually, the person who would most like to see this outcome is the Black King himself. Just imagine a prince receiving a huge sum of money from the palace every year, and then secretly accumulating wealth."
Before Han Yu could finish speaking, Nefer interrupted, saying, "The Black King needs someone like Mr. Vilette to help him rightfully eliminate the parasites, so that all of the prince's property and resources will eventually belong to the Empire."
Upon hearing this, Fulina revealed an expression of understanding. No matter where you go, people always take advantage of each other; the saying "the rabbit is killed after the hunt" has always been true.
"Tomorrow I will be heading to the palace with the future five sinners of Kanria, as well as Dain. This space may be reset, or we may escape." Han Yu wasn't sure, but he had tried every possible method.
"Didn't you ever consider that the pivot point of this space is Solindis?" Nefer asked, posing a hypothesis.
"I've thought about it. I even tried to learn something from Solindis, but ultimately I gained nothing." Han Yu wasn't unaware of this; he had considered it long ago...
