Chapter 145 – 145. Prince Canin’s Harsh World of Press Is a Harsh World for His Brothers. (3)

– One –

Slurp.

They were drinking from wooden bowls, one bowl at a time.

Even that was just muddy well water with only soil settled.

It was dirty water that the usual Marquis of Caymus or Viscount Uwebol wouldn’t even use to wash their hands.

But that was the best the Tennessee brethren could afford to treat the two nobles here.

The nobles also knew their poor circumstances, so they did not pour out any complaints.

Since the two imperial aristocrats regarded themselves as sinners who could not properly assist the crown prince, they thought it was only natural for them to endure such penance in their hearts.

The silence that flowed between the Tennessee brothers and the two aristocrats who were willing to endure penance because they were treated with muddy water that settled the soil,

“Your Excellency, Marquis of Caymus. Your Excellency, Viscount Uweboll.”

Jack stepped in and kicked it off.

“Speak.”

“Can you tell us why you decided to actively join hands with us?”

That’s not really what you want to ask.

But he didn’t know how far questions would be tolerated in this place, and he looked at their lines as a rather rude question he could take.

“Hehe. Well, there’s no particular reason.”

It seemed that this level was not crossing the line.

The Marquis of Caymus readily gives an answer to that question without any reluctance.

“It’s just that competent people like you are the enemies of the Regal, and you were willing to join us. We’re facing a common enemy, so why not join hands and shoulder to shoulder?”

Daniel immediately understands Jack’s intentions and tunes in to his intentions.

So he crossed the line a bit more.

“We are helping you in the end, but we didn’t get the perfect result, right? Even though we promised to cover and report the massacre of your people by Regal, we would fail to produce results. There is also a risk that we could all be blown away by Sudoo and Regal. Nevertheless, it is true that we are concerned about disappointing you before we are moved by such a huge support from our side.”

“In fact, they invested after seeing your prospects and possibilities. Where would there be risk-free investments in the world?”

“Is that so…”

The Marquis of Caymus grinned.

There was no way that the Marquis of Caymus, who had spent his entire life in politics, would not notice their intentions.

“I’ll give you two pieces of advice.”

“I will wash my ears and listen.”

The brothers straighten their posture.

They had a thrill running down their spines at the fact that they could read the skill in the young man’s face.

“First of all, when reporting or reporting, I hope you don’t obsess over the fact that something substantive link has been cut off, and draw a big picture to ultimately isolate Regal. It’s bound to be missed. Rather, if you’re following the big trend correctly, there’s not much of a problem with missing detailed connections. Do you know why?”

“That… I don’t know.”

The Marquis of Caymus seemed to ask him to think again, but instead of giving an answer, he only smiled softly.

Viscount Uweboll was also looking at the brothers with a smile.

“Your Excellency, Marquis.”

“Tell me, Daniel.”

“In general, if only the direction is consistent, even if the link that exists between the circumstances and the facts is somewhat missing, the public and readers will raise suspicion, and it is up to Regal to explain it anyway. So just get the big direction right, jeez. Are you talking?”

The smile of the Marquis of Caymus deepens.

“You saw it correctly. I know that you risk journalists’ conscience and do your best not to report wrongly. And the method I proposed is not very different from the filthy method used in the political world to hold on to the opponent’s suspicions. .”

“Uh, that’s it…”

“What. It’s just a confession about my past mistakes. I turned things that didn’t exist into reality in order to discredit my opponent, then forcibly matched them and pushed my political opponents. I hope you don’t do that. It’s just giving an old man like Regal an excuse to counterattack. That’s why I added it to set the big direction properly.”

“Ah…”

The brothers seemed to have come to an epiphany.

“Secondly, if you find out the detailed connection in the middle of the day, don’t go ahead and blow it all up.”

“Why should I do that, Your Excellency?”

The Marquis of Caymus seemed to be giving a lecture on the art of living to his disciples.

His face looked very happy.

Perhaps, it was because he was able to realize that he was not a retired person yet.

It may be because he was able to get rid of the loneliness that people in the later years of their lives usually feel.

“If all sorts of allegations arise and the public starts to criticize him, Regal will surely use the fact that the connections are flimsy to explain that the allegations have nothing to do with him.”

“Isn’t that right? Oh, maybe…”

“Yes. After hearing Regal’s explanation, when he wants to shake hands with you by making a nonsensical explanation, that’s when he explodes!”

“Ah…!”

The brothers look at the Marquis of Caymus with admiration.

Since they were journalists who honestly tried to convey the facts, they were ignorant of this somewhat despicable slander.

They seemed to be opening their eyes today.

“And if this is applied, even in a situation where all the links are revealed, it will be possible to report with a few places intentionally omitted.”

“And then later, if Regal gives a false explanation to get out, you can mock Regal with follow-up reports right then, are you saying?”

“I saw it right away. Heh heh heh. Daniel, don’t you want to enter politics? I’ll be your guardian.”

“Don’t you need wealth or a title to enter politics?”

“It’s okay. I’m going to be your guardian, so what does title or wealth matter? I’m Baptiste Caymus, fourth in the protocol of this great empire!”

While the Marquis of Caymus is trying to recruit Daniel,

“Your Excellency. Your Excellency’s order of protocol is fifth.”

Viscount Uweboll makes a fuss.

The Marquis of Caymus glanced at him and said,

“I’m 4th in protocol order, me!”

Ignore it.

“Huh, that’s true…”

Viscount Uwe Boll gave up on arguing and laughed.

It was the first time in recent years that the Marquis of Caymus had been in such a good mood.

And the error about his protocol was a trivial matter.

“…Is it?”

“Thank you for your words, but I will again say no.”

“I see… That’s a pity.”

After all, he seemed to have no hope of persuading Daniel.

In that short moment, Daniel expressed his refusal seven times in polite words.

“More than that, Your Excellency the Marquis.”

And the topic quickly changed.

Respectful of that firm will, the Marquis of Caymus did not recommend any more and set the tone for Daniel.

“Speak.”

“If there are like-minded people who come in contact with us, and if we judge them to be trustworthy and competent, may I arrange a meeting with you?”

The expression of the Marquis of Caymus is stained with regret.

Viscount Uweboll’s expression was no different from his.

Viscount Uweboll spoke on behalf of the Marquis of Caymus.

“Thank you very, very much, and it is necessary for us, but even if you arrange it, it seems difficult to meet with us.”

“…Can I ask why you say that?”

“It’s because we have to pay attention to Regal’s gaze. Actually, even now it’s not easy for us to go outside like this. At least our lives are not threatened and we can only meet with you. Instead of having a chance meeting, he may have already been lying around as a corpse.”

“…Is that enough…”

The two nobles nodded.

Their nodding of the head felt weightless.

It was the weight created by responsibility and frustration, guilt and inferiority.

“Regal will not threaten our personal safety right now, just to avoid looking at him with suspicion. However, your lives will not be guaranteed even within the system. So, as soon as today’s meeting is over, , You will have to abandon this hiding place and run away.”

“Should we assume that Regal has already discovered a contact with us?”

“Yes. I don’t think there will be any eyes tracking us. Perhaps, as soon as we left the imperial castle, the Regal’s hounds would have been constantly tracking us.”

Hearing Viscount Uwebol’s words, the brothers shuddered for a while in fear of Regal.

Jack stroked his left face and Daniel patted his right shoulder, calming him down after a while.

They seemed to have calmed down by remembering the employees who died in the terrorism and burning their revenge against Regal.

“Your Excellency. Then, we will pay more attention to forming public opinion among those who do not agree with Regal so that they can unite with each other.”

“Yes. And if anyone really seems to be helpful, I will point you to a place to deliver the correspondence in person so that we can communicate in writing. This side will be much less checked by the Regal than face-to-face.”

“Yes, Your Excellency the Marquis.”

They chatted about personal affairs for a while.

Because we understood the line between each other to some extent, we were taking a breather to get into a really important story.

Although they may not have been taught any particular political or diplomatic conventions, the brothers were accustomed to orchestrating the flow of these conversations.

So the Marquis of Caymus coveted them even more.

However, I couldn’t bear to recommend that they walk together to the limb.

Moreover, it was clear that they would be much more helpful to fulfill their role outside the castle than to die for the crown prince with themselves inside the castle.

“Your Excellency, I have two questions. If it is not rude to you, and if, in Your Excellency’s opinion, you can share the contents with us, I ask that you answer without hesitation.”

As the talk of personal affairs died down for a while, Daniel politely but sincerely asked Viscount Uweboll for an answer to the matter they were most curious about.

“I will listen to your questions and make my judgment.”

“Yes. First of all, I would like to know what Regal’s true purpose is as judged by His Excellency. As I examine the extensive tyranny that Regal perpetrated one by one, I wonder what the root cause of such things was, and I wonder about it. It always remains.”

Viscount Uwe Boll nodded his head at Daniel, as if telling him to continue.

Daniel read the affirmation in his gesture.

“Second, I would like to know the secret of how the role the Marquis of Caymus is playing is so convincing and natural. We, the representatives of the media, have all become fugitives, so it is difficult to ignore such excellent counterplay. .It is for the safety of all of us, so we sincerely hope that you will not be shy and share the secret.”

Viscount Uwevol was smiling.

He glanced at the Marquis of Caymus.

The Marquis of Caymus nodded.

Although they may not have agreed on this part beforehand, the Marquis of Caymus decided to fully follow Viscount Uweboll’s judgment.

“Hmm. The two are connected for a reason.”

“Yes…?”

The brother blinks his eyes.

It was difficult for them to understand what Viscount Uwevol was saying at all.

“And there is one thing that needs to be corrected.”

“What is it, sir?”

“Your Excellency, the Marquis, did not play the role. He really has become young.”

Jump!
Thud.

The two brothers hurriedly get up from their seats, but at the same time smash their butts.

Their funny expressions and flustered gestures were all alike.

“What, what do you mean by that, Your Excellency! Ah, no, that, is it possible to rejuvenate? No, no, even if it is possible, this kind of rejuvenation…”

“Uh, excuse me, but isn’t His Excellency the Marquis over seventy…?”

Brothers talk gibberish.

Viscount Uweboll smiled bitterly.

He is a miracle that makes no sense even when he thinks about it.

Yes.

This is a miracle due to the blessing of the Goddess.

“That’s what you mean…”

Viscount Uwebol tells them the truth about Eros Paradise.

They tell us everything they’ve come to know.

The brothers listen to their stories, even taking notes.

Their eyes burn bright red.

“…We believe that the purpose of Regal is to permanently fix the waiting state for participation and live forever. After that, they will try to devour the empire. They are preventing racial union. Where is that? I have no choice but to fix the current situation, even if it means arresting and executing latecomers.”

Then everything seemed to make sense to them.

I understood that the cause of this bizarre situation, the reason why journalists died mercilessly, and that it was only for the eternal life of one politician, but I couldn’t forgive it.

“Eh, if the waiting for participation is over and the full-fledged succession ceremony begins, how do you think Regal will come out then?”

“Perhaps you would kill all the other competitors to ascend the throne, right? But I think you intend to delay it as much as possible, and delay it, and set the stage in your favor before you even start. Aren’t you collecting information on them to get rid of them, kidnapping them, legally trapping them and isolating them?”

“If you know that Eros Paradise is behind all of Regal’s actions, his actions are very consistent. The direction is also clear.”

When the brothers heard Regal’s true purpose, they were speechless for a while.

They were at a loss as to whether they should be angry, terrified, or depressed.

“Currently, we, the imperial faction, have pledged allegiance to Regal in reality. Even if we seem to stand in opposition and build our pride on the outside, we have no choice but to comply with Regal’s request, whether it’s in a meeting or an informal meeting. His Majesty the Emperor And for the safety of the imperial family, and for the safety of Her Highness, we had no choice but to surrender.”

At the regretful words of the Marquis of Caymus, the brothers could be sure that these nobles did not invent an absurd story to make fun of them.

There was no reason for these high-ranking aristocrats to invent such a grandiose story in order to deceive two journalists who were only citizens.

“Regal seems to be the first to join the war. I also participated in it. I entered the battle to become the focal point of the imperial faction against Regal, and to protect the imperial faction to the end. I don’t have any greed either. It’s only to keep this position until His Highness the Crown Prince grows up and hand over a position to him.”

“Ah…”

“In the worst case, even if I take my own life, I’m thinking of providing a place for the Crown Prince. But, Your Highness is too young. So shouldn’t I buy some time for him to grow up? I entered the battle with that thought…”

The Marquis of Caymus couldn’t say that he was frustrated that Regal felt like such a big wall.

This is because he did not want to make those who had just joined hands feel the same frustration as himself.

“Well, anyway, by becoming a participant like that, I was able to receive the blessing of the Goddess.

“Are these sufficient answers to the two questions you raised?”

The brother nods heavily.

The brothers seemed quite confused when they learned a big secret that was difficult for common sense to accept.

“Look at you guys.”

“Yes, Your Excellency the Marquis.”

“As promised earlier, never disclose anything about Eros Paradise to the outside world. As a proof of your faith, and to show respect for the efforts you have made for us, I am telling you this. If you reveal it, we, you, and even the imperial family could be in danger.”

“I understand, Your Excellency the Marquis.”

Viscount Uweboll sympathizes with the Marquis of Caymus’ concerns and adds his own opinion.

“Even if we reveal the content, it would be better to do so after having communicated with us in advance. And rather than expressing the content directly, it would be better to hint it through metaphors and metaphors. It is beyond the influence of Regal. I think it would be desirable to expose it so that only the contestants know, with the aim of shaking up the Regal.”

“I understand, Viscount.”

The expression of the two people is serious.

They will have various scenarios in their heads at what point and in what form it would be good to expose this content.

“If I believe the time has come to disclose this information, I will deliver the letter in person, Your Excellency.”

Jack’s eyes light up.

He seemed to have a good judgment on when to reveal.

“I’d appreciate it if you did that. I’ll believe you guys aren’t idiots who rush into important cards out of heroism.”

Hehe. Are you talking about this? All those clumsy things have already been weeded out, and only the worn-out ones remain that dominate today’s media history. You don’t have to worry about that.”

Jack smiles confidently.

Both the Marquis of Caymus and Viscount Uwevol looked at him and smiled.

At that time, Daniel, who had been contemplating with a hardened expression on his face, opened his mouth.

“By the way, Viscount.”

“What’s up?”

“Are you sure Regal is tracking down a sub-race and a pure-race couple to control the number of participants by either recruiting them as their subordinates or killing them immediately?”
