Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 535: Chapter 393: Attack of the Cold Winter _1

“Since then, whenever Burt had time, he would return here, bringing some news and supplies from the outside world.

However, because the northern border of Coldflame is not peaceful,

he soon stationed himself at the front lines again, and we temporarily lost contact.”

Only to see Burt sigh heavily, then continue, “Later, when I saw Burt again, he had been transferred to the border between Coldflame and Saint Night.

This position is naturally already close to Crystal Kingdom.

Learning this news, while I was immersed in the joy of being able to see my brother frequently in the future,

I never thought that this would be the beginning of our complete break with Burt and Crystal Kingdom.”

On the other side, hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and continued listening.

“That was a cold winter night thirty years ago when a group of powerful masked men secretly entered the city,

attacking the Grand Duke Mansion and launching a bloody massacre without saying a word.

Caught off guard, it directly led to the deaths of dozens of people in the castle.

These included the former Grand Duke of Crystal Kingdom, who was my and Burt’s father.”

At this point, Burt clenched his fists tightly, and with a sad expression on his face, he continued, “However, due to timely reinforcements and our desperate resistance,

the identity of these unknown masked men was eventually revealed.”

After the fight, through a detailed investigation of the attackers’ bodies, I found

that the weapons used by these attackers were all made in Saint Night Kingdom, and even included some standard equipment of Saint Night Army.

However, I unexpectedly discovered that two of these mysterious attackers were actually wearing high-ranking Coldflame officer velvet jackets.

This kind of exquisite velvet jacket, with excellent warmth, I had seen it on Burt before,

only existed among the Coldflame Legion, and only the commanding officers above the deputy commanders wore it.

And at that time, it had just been issued not long ago, and other people didn’t even know about its existence, let alone obtaining or imitating it.”

“Oh?” Hearing this, a surprised expression appeared on Leo Ray’s face, and he said thoughtfully, “In that case,

the true identity of these attackers was undoubtedly the Coldflame Army.

And the reason they carried the weapons of the Saint Night Army and attacked the Grand Duke Mansion at night,

was to provoke a conflict between the Crystal Kingdom and the Saint Night Army and then profit from it, right?”

“Lord is right in his analysis.”

On the other side, Burt bowed slightly and continued, “At that time,

Because one of the main forces of Coldflame at the border was Burt’s legion,

so, I didn’t alert the enemy and secretly investigated.

As expected, I found that in another stationed Coldflame Legion here,

one full and one deputy commander, along with several key personnel, had disappeared after that night and matched the appearances of the attackers.”

“So that’s how it was.

In that case, at that time, Burt should have been unaware of all these, right?” Muttering to himself, Leo Ray then asked.

“As Lord said, that’s indeed how it was.”

Nodding slightly, Burt’s eyes were misty, and he seemed to have fallen into memories again, “After learning this infuriating truth,

I immediately went to Burt, told him all about what had happened with a grieving heart,

and planned to take revenge on the mastermind behind all this, another stationed Coldflame Kingdom General Earl Rein.

However, after understanding all this, Burt, in his grief, resolutely refused my plans for revenge,

even when I was about to take action with my people,

Burt not only didn’t help, but he even sided with our enemy Rein, transferring him to safety first,

and then assisting him in returning to the distant Coldflame Royal City, making us, who were unfamiliar with the area and unable to travel far with some forces, completely lose the chance of revenge.

That’s when I realized

that the heart of my brother, or this ruthless traitor, had long since left Crystal Kingdom.”

Finishing his words, Burt’s old face with crisscrossed wrinkles shook his head helplessly.

“So that’s how it is. That’s why Burt was expelled from Crystal Kingdom, right?”

At this point, Leo Ray stood up from his seat, paced slowly, and thoughtfully said,

“According to Joshua’s previous description,

Burt, the Giant Axe General, had the most upright and incorruptible character among the eight Kingdom generals. His style was to hate evil, and he never fawned upon others.

Logically speaking, thirty years ago, when faced with such a thing, Burt should not have acted like this.

This shows that there must be hidden secrets in this.”

Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this,

on the other side, Linda, who was full of heroic spirit, seemed to have thought of something and immediately bowed her fist and reported, “My Lord.”
