They all call me Great Master-Chapter 754 - 751 The Touch of Folly III
Lori's voice was high-pitched, and he spread his arms wide as if he were already standing on the stage of the largest theater within the Ainhars Territory, receiving the worship of all the audience.
As for the people around him?
They were naturally also part of the audience.
He was merely aiding them now, acting as a supporting role.
His brother, the lady he pursued, Lady Windsor, were just like that.
The only difference was the proportion of their parts.
Just like this brother of his.
As someone whose Talent far surpassed his, who was extremely favored by his father, Burton had played the role of an enemy for quite a significant part of his life.
Until...
Kalal appeared!
That detestable distant relative not only possessed a Talent better than Burton's but also, in a sense, truly had a share in the Ainhars Territory.
Therefore, he had felt like facing a formidable enemy at that time.
However, what he hadn't expected was that Burton would actually make a friendly gesture towards him first.
At that moment, he understood the true meaning of the phrase "there are no permanent enemies in life," and he also realized that taking real control of Ainhars wasn't as difficult as he had imagined.
Just like at this moment—
The Marquis' Eldest Son was observing the expressions of the young nobles around him.
It was a stir of thoughts after pondering.
Not even Lady Windsor, the only daughter of Viscount Windsor, was an exception.
This lady had no competitors, as she could inherit everything from Viscount Windsor after his demise, but... who would not want to gain more renown by themselves?
As for the others?
Some were like Lady Windsor.
The rest were like him before, having too much desire for the Succession Right yet unable to attain it.
Simply put, those present today had been selectively invited by the Marquis' Eldest Son.
Therefore, the Marquis' Eldest Son was not worried about failing.
In fact, it was just so—
"After they mutually destroy each other, we will clean up the mess... If it's that kind of stage, I am very willing,"
said a young noble.
"Right, I think this stage belongs to us, it couldn't be more appropriate,"
another young noble echoed.
And such agreement quickly spread.
Only, Lady Windsor was different.
This lady slightly furrowed her brows and did not speak immediately.
Therefore, everyone turned their gaze towards her.
This scene made Lori feel dissatisfied.
The Marquis' Eldest Son knew very well that the woman in front of him was doing this on purpose.
This lady really enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.
If it could also bring benefits, then all the better.
Ever since Kalal was expelled and Windsor immediately distanced herself from him, the Marquis' Eldest Son had known her true nature.
"Specific!
I need a specific plan!
If there is no specific plan, I'm out!"
Lady Windsor said this.
And such a statement made Lori even more dissatisfied.
The Marquis' Eldest Son felt that the woman before him, in her pursuit of more power, was undermining his platform—these special spectators around him, alone might not have any power, not worth his concern, but when these people gathered together, they naturally became something not to be ignored.
And gathering such capable individuals also made a difference.
"Damn woman, she actually wants to seize power!
You delusion!
Just wait!
After today, I will definitely make you understand what it means to be worse than death!"
Inwardly cursing, Lori had already decided to play with Windsor enough and then confine her in the high tower within the castle.
And now?
The Marquis' Eldest Son nevertheless wore a slight smile.
"Of course!"
'The Red Knights' had hidden a batch of cannons on the bank of the Inland River, which were enough to cause considerable damage to the Southern Lost Spirit Medium.
After all, the 'Oriental' on the Inland River was nothing more than a target for these River Pirates.
Afterward, the numerous and swarming River Pirates would overwhelm the Southern Lost Spirit Medium.
Especially since the 'Red Knights' were not to be underestimated.
And then?
It was time for my men to take the stage—when the River Pirates had an absolute advantage, Kalal would take action, informing the 'Red Knights' that we were the protagonists of this territory."
In order to reclaim everyone's leadership, the Marquis' Eldest Son reluctantly disclosed some information.
Of course, the most secretive parts, the Marquis' Eldest Son would never reveal.
Such as: His dealings with Gleisa Hamlet.
However, even so, it was enough.
"Hiss!
Kalal?
'The Slaughterer' Kalal?"
A young Noble exclaimed.
The faces of the surrounding young Nobles also changed.
Perhaps among the River Pirates, the 'Red Knights' had a very high reputation, but in terms of fear, 'The Slaughterer' Kalal was what people feared the most.
Especially the young Nobles who knew some of 'The Slaughterer' Kalal's war records.
At times, they also played the role of robbers.
But most of the time, they had their humanity.
And 'The Slaughterer' Kalal?
He was completely a guy devoid of humanity.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Lori was extremely satisfied.
The Marquis' Eldest Son immediately said—
"Of course, apart from that Kalal, I don't think there's any other Kalal who would appear alongside the 'Red Knights'.
Moreover, Kalal also has another identity…"
Lori drew out his tone.
Only when he had refocused everyone's attention on himself did the Marquis' Eldest Son continue with a smile.
"He is a confidant of the 'Red Knights'!
Not just him, but 'Skull Splitter' Sadi and 'Blood Axe' Danny too are confidants of this 'Red Knight'.
Simply put, they usually act as if they don't interfere with each other.
In reality, they are a group.
And for us, this is very advantageous.
'The Red Knights' will definitely not guard against 'The Slaughterer' Kalal."
Upon hearing this news, the young Nobles in the room looked at each other.
They genuinely did not know this fact.
And if this was true…
Impressive!
Watching the expressions of those around him change, the Marquis' Eldest Son knew it was sufficient.
"What do you think?
Would you like to join me on the stage that belongs to us?"
The Marquis' Eldest Son asked.
"Willing!"
Burton was the first to nod.
And unexpectedly, Lady Windsor was the second to agree.
"Willing!"
The Marquis' Eldest Son glanced at Windsor, his esteem for the woman in front of him falling even further.
'She really is profit-driven!
Kalal, that fool, will be crying, right?
But soon, he won't be able to cry anymore!'
Thinking this, the Marquis' Eldest Son nonetheless showed goodwill to Lady Windsor, not just nodding but also displaying a standard smile.
With these two leading, the rest of the group also expressed their willingness to join.
Immediately, Lori was elated with a sense of accomplishment.
But what the Marquis' Eldest Son did not see was that in the sleeve of Lady Windsor, a Messenger Stone was continuously flickering.
