Chapter 413 Am I Headed?

Text Chapter Four hundred and thirteen Is my head in my head?

"But the premise of all this is," Victor said, "His Royal Highness Philip is really dead."

"That's right."

Annan nodded.

And if Philip had faked his death, the situation would be completely different.

Whether Philip’s death was real or fake, his political career was already dead—it was impossible for the populace to accept a man who had “died once” to lead them any more than a puppet king.

Because they can't even confirm whether this person is "a king or a liar".

Ordinary people don't know the existence of spell energy and great spell objects.

They don't even know how backward the civilization of the Yaslan people was before the elves arrived in the Yaslan continent... All they can vaguely know is that "this continent was once ruled by the elves."

But they certainly would not know that it was after the Great Barrier was shattered and the imperial capital collapsed that the present Five Great Nations came into being.

In Noah and the United Kingdom, the version they heard was, "After the Great Barrier was broken, the elves lost their power to rule the continent. The humans who were treated as slaves, led by the heroes, revolted and defeated the elf emperor."

They used this method to explain why the elves who were once the overlords of the mainland could not be seen in human gathering places, and almost no elf-style buildings and artworks could be seen.

The Duchy of Winter and The Church, because they have a closer relationship with the righteous gods and the people are more devout, are relatively more real—and only a few. They believe that because the elves committed a great crime, the twelve righteous gods teamed up to sink the elves' capital into the sea.

The only difference is that in this mythology, the images, words and... scenes of the righteous gods believed in by the two countries are different.

This version is quite close to the truth, but it was obviously made up by someone sent by the ruler at that time.

The version on the underground side is closer to the facts on the other side-they believe that the elves have developed a technology that can travel across the world, and moved the entire country and the continent together.

——It is because of the loss of the protection of the elves that the eternal unified barrier will be broken and become the current split barrier that must burn the power of the righteous god to continue to exist. This can explain why the Great Barrier is broken.

This version is in a sense closer to the truth. Combined with the Theocracy's version, it is basically 70% of the truth.

In the view of the Noah people, they will accept King Noah's rule because they are "descendants of heroes". And their status was very underground a long time ago. It was King Noah who rescued them and asked Sir Silver to rebuild the Great Barrier with a big deal.

So they have freedom, land, and a safe air. And the king's rule over them can be regarded as enlightened compared to the "slave-like" attitude of the elves towards them.

Because of this, the Noahs pay special attention to the king's "lineage". That is to say—King Noah was the hero who rescued them back then, and the brave man who signed a contract with Sir Silver, so he could establish a kingdom and rule them—of course, in official terms, it is "let Future generations have been guarding this group of people."

——If someone who has nothing to do with King Noah is replaced, what is it?

Therefore, as long as the news of Philip's assassination spreads, no matter whether he is really dead or fake, it can only be regarded as dead.

In the Kingdom of Noah, where extraordinary people are just legends, people cannot accept the "too fantastic thing" of "resurrection from the dead". Even Philip would have been taken as an offense if he called himself "Prince Philip not yet dead".

"And he obviously still wants to succeed."

Annan analyzed: "So, even if he suspended his death this time... I don't think it was his own plan."

"But if it is involuntary, taking the other party's head while keeping the other party alive. This difficulty will become much greater.

"

Victor also whispered: "The key is that Philip is an ordinary person, not a superhuman...otherwise it would be much simpler."

At this time, Maria also got up and asked Annan what happened.

Annan told her about the accident.

Maria was indifferent to this - on the contrary, she was a little happy.

Because she always felt that Philip's smile was too kind, even annoying to look at. It's like melted toffee...it's so sweet that it sticks to the teeth and makes people physically nauseated.

And just as he was repeating, "The Opener" Jacob also came over.

"...Wait a minute, Your Majesty."

Jacob frowned and made a statement: "I must say... I think you guys overcomplicated that ceremony."

"You mean, the 'unknown skull preservation ceremony' that can survive even if the head is beheaded?"

Annan retorted casually, "Will you do this ceremony too?"

"I can really do it."

Jacob replied very confidently: "It's not difficult."

As soon as he said this, the eyes of the people around him immediately focused on him.

Maria reminded him: "But Philip is an ordinary person.

"As an ordinary person, his soul has not formed, and once he dies, he can't be saved again. It's not like a silver-ranked transcendent who has a firm will. Even if his head is cut off and his heart is pierced, he still remains Can continue to survive for a while..."

"And even a silver-ranked Transcendent will die suddenly if his brain is severely injured."

Annan added.

He remembered again, the "Jude of Shaping" who was "I got up, and it took an arrow" by Dove at the beginning. As a plastic school known for its defensive power, Jude was immediately dropped by Dove without even casting a spell.

"No, not cut off."

Jacob quickly explained: "If it is true that the heads of mortals are cut off, and then preserved to make them immortal... a ceremony of that level, I am afraid that it is possible for a priest of the Pope level to do it. .”

"...Didn't cut it off?"

"That's right, His Royal Highness Philip's head was not chopped off from the very beginning."

Jacob replied very definitely: "It was [stolen] by someone.

"This is the ritual of the God of Lost and Returned 'Stealer', a very small ritual."

—The Stealer. Also known as "Thousand-Handed God", he is a false god.

Annan had heard the name before.

He is the protector of righteous thieves and godly thieves. At the same time, if important lost items are accidentally lost, you can also pray to Him for their return.

A considerable number of his believers are "gold fingers", and they also control important channels for the sale of stolen goods-that is, "return houses". Followers of the Snatcher sell or give back to the house if they steal something.

And if the owner urgently needs to get back the lost property, he either needs to pay money or favor. The only good thing is that if it is stolen again, or really lost, returning the house will recover the item for the owner for free, and will not catch a customer stalking the wool.

One item, one price.

But the reason why they are not evil gods is because they will also accept some commissions from "lost property".

For example, something that was taken away... If the return house is willing to stand up for them, it will help them steal the stolen thing back. The only and biggest constraint imposed on them by the "stealers" is "not allowed to sell someone's things to others."

You can only hold it in your own hands, or sell it to the owner, or sell it to the "original owner". It cannot be sold to someone who has nothing to do with this item.

"—According to my experience, His Royal Highness Philip was 'the head was stolen'."

Jacob said very confidently: "His head was directly taken away by magic, rather than being cut off and then preserved.

"Of course, that also means..."

"...Someone released a mission with 'Philip's head' as the designated lost item?"

Even Annan was a little confused.

Could it be that Philip's head...was not his own?
