MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 206 The plan worked, the vengeance continued (1/5)
In the small chamber of the main tower of Storm's End, everyone is waiting for the governor.
Storm's End is in disarray due to Jory's sudden death.
No one would have thought that a person who was loved by the governor, who was very talented on the extraordinary path, and who was almost certain to be the next governor would die suddenly.
And he died at the celebration where the people cheered him, in front of the statue of the Seven Gods.
The news that spread like wildfire made all kinds of speculations, no matter the nobles or the commoners of Wind's Rest.
Some of them thought that Jory must have offended the seven gods, so he was punished by the gods.
Some people also said that Jory must have offended evil people and was cursed horribly.
What's more, some people speculate that this is a letter of war to the governor, that Wind's Rest is about to go to war.
In less than a day, there are already different opinions and panic.
The matter has come to this point, no matter from which point of view, it is imminent to find out the truth and solve this matter.
Right now, representatives of the nobles of Wind's End, the ministers of Storm's End, and the governor's family members are all waiting for the governor to deal with the matter in the meeting hall.
However, the governor has not arrived, what's more, no one knows where he went.
The governor's attendants, knight commander Lannis, and the guards couldn't find him.
"He is still studying his extraordinary."
Celine Weiss, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, complained to Moros distraught.
As the governor's most favored mistress, Celine Weiss knew that since some time ago, the governor had tried to lock himself up and study his obsession with the extraordinary.
No one is allowed to set foot where he goes, let alone what he does.
That is, from then on, the governor never called her again.
Besides the fear of the family losing power, Celine Weiss doesn't care personally. She already has Moros, and her thoughts are no longer on the governor.
But first, Jory died, her only son died, and the governor could still study his extraordinaryness regardless.
This made Celine Weiss's disappointment and anger to the extreme, and she couldn't bear it at all.
Her feelings for the governor have changed from hypocrisy to hatred.
Chief Political Officer Moros stood beside him, holding his cousin's hand, his face livid.
Years of humiliation, years of humiliation, now that Jory is dead, all his painstaking efforts are in vain.
Trying to control his emotions, for the future, the grieving Moros didn't want to make himself appear too serious.
Because of Governor Fell's disobedience to the conventional order and his late arrival, the whispering voices in the chamber gradually rang out.
Nobody understood what was going on.
Governor Fair first prevented them from getting close to Jory's body, and only handed over the work of embalming the body to some people whom they had never met and who did not know the details.
And now, he left the minister's family here again, not knowing what to do.
Shea, who was standing in the crowd, heard a noble representative discussing in a low voice:
"Do you know who the people who buried Lord Jory's body were?"
"I don't know, I have seen those people in Storm's End, but I don't know their origins."
"I only know that they were personally recruited by the governor, and he didn't allow us to ask."
"Yes, those people are very strange. I talked to them once, and they didn't say a word to me."
"What is the governor going to do?"
"do not know."
"The governor may have his arrangements, but now, what is more important than the death of His Excellency Jory?"
Hearing this, Shia already faintly understood the reason.
Those unknown people must be the apprentices of the Soul Eater.
And the governor is probably somewhere now, questioning Soul Eater and his apprentices, whether Jory's death has anything to do with them.
‘The facts are as expected by Rhine. '
And, after these things, the seeds of doubt have been planted in Storm's End.
The nobles and ministers began to doubt the governor, which will undoubtedly make Penrose Fell feel the pressure of restraint.
"Rhein's plan is really effective."
Xia was secretly proud of herself. All she needed to do now was to deal a fatal blow to Celine Weiss under the watchful eyes of everyone.
The intense sunlight near noon came in from the top window of the chamber.
After a long time, heavy footsteps were finally heard in the corridor outside the chamber, and Governor Penrose Fell finally arrived.
Everyone in the meeting hall fell silent immediately, except Celine Weiss.
When seeing the long-awaited governor for the first time, Celine Weiss could no longer hold back her anger.
In front of everyone present, she grabbed the governor who had just entered the hall and asked:
"Where have you been? What else is more important to you than Jory?"
Serene Weiss's stern questioning in public made the governor, who was upset and suffocated, almost explode.
He glared at Celine Weiss angrily. Under the frantic influence of the forbidden spell, he instinctively wanted to kill.
But after calming down for a second, he remembered that Celine Weiss was Jory's mother, so he just pushed her away, walked to the main seat and sat down.
Serene Weiss, who had just been silently warned by the governor, was shocked.
Twenty years of getting along day and night, she could feel the murderous intent in the governor's eyes just now.
'He should...he should...'
Celine Weiss had a brief moment of fear in her heart, but it was instantly replaced by anger that had been suppressed for many years.
‘For so many years, Penrose has absorbed the property of the Weiss family and various big families like a vampire.
He's heartless, he's greedy, he's ruined my life, and now he's ruining my Jory. '
Cerine Weiss didn't care anymore, she threw off Moros who was supporting her, walked out from the crowd, stood in the center of the chamber, and continued to question the governor loudly:
"Where's Jory? I'm his mother and I want to see him!"
Following Celine Weiss' questioning, everyone in the chamber held their breath. They looked at the governor, waiting for his answer and explanation.
In the crowd, Shia also watched quietly.
But the governor was very irritable.
He saw that Celine Weiss was still making trouble, and she still pointed at the part he had to cover up.
The confusion brought about by the use of forbidden spells in the depths of the governor's soul began to gnaw at his thinking again.
Pushing him to the brink.
But after all, Penrose Fell was originally a fourth-rank and ninth-rank transcendent. After merging with Marthas's soul, he was promoted to fifth rank.
After realizing the confusion in my heart, intervene in time, and it will not cause serious consequences.
"I make my own arrangements."
The governor did not give an explanation, but only interrupted Celine Weiss sharply.
Serene Weiss was stunned. She didn't understand why the governor kept her from seeing Jory's body several times.
Not only Celine Weiss, but everyone didn't understand why the governor tried to stop such a normal thing?
In the face of everyone, Moros, who has been the chief political participant for more than ten years, was the first to react.
He thought for a long time, stepped out of the queue, and walked to the center of the chamber to make a suggestion to Governor Fell.
