Eagle Flag of Epirus

The appearance of Grand Duke Anastasius completely broke the plan of Leosgros. He was indeed the leader of the nobles of Moria. However, this was only because the authoritarian was old and unwilling to intervene in secular affairs. More time is spent in the monastery doing his own literary creation, but the appearance of this old guy today is beyond Duke Leo's expectation.

It was difficult for Leo to guess what the old man wanted to do, and he did not dare to act rashly at this time. The lofty status of the Grand Duke Anastasius is not only his title of tyranny, but also that when the Latins won a great victory, it was this man who paid an unimaginable ransom in exchange for the permission of the Achaia horde. The Leah nobles safely evacuated and were able to escape to the south. When it came to Fort Wiscari, many aristocrats were generously assisted by the old man. Therefore, it is conceivable that their prestige among the nobles, and more importantly, the important defensive force in Wiscari Castle. Composed of the guards of this authoritarian government, no one dared to show any disrespect to Anastasius.

But what surprised Leosgros even more was the Justinian in front of him. He seemed not at all surprised by the appearance of Anastasius, as if he had already expected his appearance.

But in fact, Justinian was like a great enemy to the old man in front of him. The other party was completely different from anyone he came into contact with. The existence of this kind of high-ranking person did not exist in Justinian’s memory at all. This is what The most frightening thing is that Anastasius has enough power but Justinian knows nothing about him. To some extent, the fear of this late old man even exceeds that of the encounter with Alex III and Tsar Kaloyan. More importantly, the appearance of the other party gave him another feeling!

But after Anastasius appeared, he did nothing. At his order, I don’t know when dinner was served. The main course was roast lamb and bacon, as well as cooked sea fish, and the side dish was radish. , Cabbage, garlic, onion, pumpkin, lettuce, not so luxurious, but the cooking is in place. The nobles are like a family happily eating dinner, and Anastasius is like talking gossips with Moria’s nobles between the elders and the younger, and he doesn’t shy away from Justinian. It’s true. It’s just gossip, such as which noble’s child has just grown up, which girl is at the age of getting married, and is there still a dowry ready, but nothing has been said about Tripolis which Justinian had to discuss before. Anastasius didn't even look at Justinian in matters of farmland.

The atmosphere presented a strange silence. Anastasius did not express his position, and no one dared to say more, including Leos Gross, who was already ready to take the opportunity to win over Justinian. In this way, time was wasted, and soon a dinner party ended.

I saw that the old man slowly got up from his seat with the help of the attendant, and looked at Justinian and said indifferently: "I think you should be tired today too. It's not too early now, I think there is something The important things should be settled the next day! What do you think?" The old man smiled when he said this, but it gave people an invisible pressure, and no one dared to raise objections.

Justinian’s reaction was also very calm. He knew that since the old man had already expressed his opinion, it would be a waste of time to continue to want to negotiate, but he himself had no interest in it. Standing up politely and saying goodbye, Justinian took the initiative to take Arslan away, and a banquet dedicated to negotiations to solicit Justinian ended in such a hurry, and all the nobles' faces were not very good-looking.

The Grand Duke Anastasius was also clearly aware of this. He watched Justinian go away and sighed slightly: "It seems that you are still blaming the old."

"Where do we dare to be disrespectful to you, Grand Duke!. It's just now that it was the best time!" Of course, the nobles did not dare to express their dissatisfaction, but they were still not reconciled, since Justinian had already admitted him. Privately invaded the fiefs of the nobles, then it is not difficult to force them to subdue with both the hard and the soft.

But Anastasius let out a sigh, "Where is that simple? You underestimate that kid. The Latins who can be defeated in the Alfios River dominate the number of people rely on more than just marching. The talent is so simple, otherwise he wouldn't be a [little fox]." After speaking, the old man faintly gripped the cane in his hand.

On the other side, Justinian and Arslan boarded the carriage as soon as they left the Governor's Mansion and went straight back to his hospitality residence, and Arslan also noticed that the young man's face was a bit ugly. This was something he had never seen before. The feeling Justinian had always given him was calm and confident, but now it was completely different. There was a slight wave in those blue eyes.

"Master Justinian, you...are you okay?" Looking at Justinian, Arslan asked cautiously, but the boy in front of him said nothing.

"Let Nicky Fruss let go, before the other party can find any clues about us." For a long time, Justinian, who had freed himself from his thoughts, seemed a little tired, waved his hand and said.

"Let him go? But—" Arslan looked at Justinian in surprise, and as soon as they arrived at the residence arranged for them by the nobles of Moria~www.ltnovel.com~ they took the opportunity to stay in Nikiforus. After leaving, he stunned and tied him back in an ambush. This is why the opponent will not find Nicky Fruss for a while and have to let Baron Isaac replace him. From Nicky Fruss’s mouth, Justinian learned a lot of information that he didn’t know about here, such as the identities of Moria’s various nobles, the important figures among them, and the one who had been hiding behind the scenes. Grand Duke Anastasius known from outside. But now Justinian asked Alslan to release Nikiforus, who was tied to the log house at the back, which puzzled Alslan.

"But what if things go wrong, it's better to just..." Arslan's face showed the fierceness of the Turkic people, and he proposed to kill people.

However, Justinian gave the other person a blank look and said, "It was a last resort to get to that point. Nicky Fruss said a lot of things, there are insignificant things and some should not be said. He is a wise man. If he leaves, it will be easier to cover up this matter. Otherwise, it will fall into the hands of others. Now we can no longer show any flaws." With a sigh, Justinian's eyes unexpectedly appeared. Dignified, and seeing the look on Justinian's face, Arslan also realized that Justinian was not just talking about it, it seemed that there really was something important. Without saying more, Arslan immediately stepped back to deal with the release of Nikifrus.

But Justinian was thinking about another thing at the moment. He was too careless. Because of the defeat of the Latins, he came to Fort Wiscari and subconsciously regarded the Moria nobles too unbearably. But the appearance of Anastasius made him aware of the unprecedented threat. As soon as he met, he felt the sense of the ark of the covenant fragment on the other party's body. This was the third fragment he encountered.
