Chapter 468 On and Off the Stage

“I thought that all of you prophets would at all costs for breakthrough.”

After taking a deep look at Anves, the Speaker took the key back and did not continue the topic.

A moment later, the third act of the opera begins.

The stage background was changed to a gorgeous palace. Witnessed by many nobles, the king stood in front of the pure gold throne, holding a sword in one hand and resting it on the right shoulder of the protagonist who had changed his face and name. , announced that he would officially become a Viscount of the Kingdom from now on.

And the protagonist Theo was half-kneeling, pressing his right hand to his chest, and swore allegiance to the king.

Then, the scene suddenly changed, the palace and the nobles dissipated like a phantom, and replaced with scenes of protagonists tracking down the identity of the enemy who framed the father.

Perhaps tempted with heavy profits, or threatened with some handle. No matter what kind of opponent he faces, he can always find out the weakness in the opponent’s mind and make use of it.

At the same time, the background music became tight and mysterious, as if to tell the intrigue in the dark.

Under such a wrist, Theo peeled off the layers of mist covering his eyes and gradually restored the truth at that time.

The culprits who designed to frame his father were Hans Count and Sybil Count of the kingdom. Because the existence of the old Sith count hindered his interests, they set up a trap to frame him.

Hans count forged false evidence that the Sith count conspired to rebel and assassinate the king, while Sybil count wooed many minor nobles and asked them to stand up at a critical moment and point out his crimes.

In the final moments of the third act, after learning the truth, Theo sat alone in the dark study and began to prepare his revenge plan.

During the third act, the box remained silent throughout, with neither Anves nor the Speaker speaking.

Soon, the stage plot came to the fourth act.

Relationships between the kingdom and its neighbors grow increasingly tense under some covert moves by the protagonists.

Finally, war broke out.

Under the order of the king, a group of nobles, including Hans Count, Sybil Count, and the protagonist himself, sent troops to support the front line.

However, what they didn’t expect was that the front line at this time had already become a death trap for them.

Under the plan behind Theo, the marching information of the two count teams was leaked, and the enemy was used as the main force to ambush, causing heavy casualties.

However, his behavior finally made the two counts realize something was wrong.

Before the final battle, Hans Count finally realized that Theo was behind everything. Angrily questioned why he wanted to frame them and at the same time merged the remaining army with Sybil, intending to fight with them either the fish dies or the net splits.

“My name is Theo Sith! Recite that name in the flames of hell!”

As Sherman sings the play’s famous line, The final battle begins.

In order to highlight the drama, this scene still adopts the form of duel of nobles. Although Theo is one-on-two, the two counts also fell into the chronic poison under Theo’s plan, and it was the same poison as the poisonous wine his father drank, but in a smaller dose.

In the end, with ‘more exquisite Sword Art skills’, Theo succeeded in killing the enemy. Then, relying on his own personal charm and hard power, he gathered the remnants of the two counts, led his army to defeat the main force of the enemy, and returned triumphantly.

As the bell rang for the end of the fourth act, the stage curtain slowly drooped down in the unfinished eyes of everyone.

“It seems that today’s unexpected and interesting meeting is almost coming to an end.”

Looking at the Gloria-style grandfather clock placed on the side of the room , the speaker of the black robe hung the key back on his chest again with a slightly regretful tone.

“Although the opera still has the last act, the performance time of another epic stage play is almost here. I have an appointment with a friend, so it’s not good to be late.”

With that said, the Speaker took out an exquisite magic hourglass and placed it on the coffee table.

“I think we have one last bit of time. When this hourglass is over, I will leave here. As for whether Lord Zast will go or stay, it is up to you.”

Then, he leaned back on the sofa, lifted the crystal glass gently, and watched Anves’s eyes with dark eyes.

“Of course, if you want to witness the next scene with me, I am also welcome.”

Looking at the silent Speaker, Anves suddenly spoke.

“Your Excellency Farr, you must have heard that after the birth of the opera “Theo Sith”, a very famous argument was derived for the content of the opera:

p>

That is, in the whole opera, what the protagonist Theo did, relative to the villain in the play, is it qualified to be called the righteous side?”

Watch Looking at the black robe gloomy youth with the goblet turned in front of him, Anves continued.

“As the party of revenge, Theo should occupy the righteousness, but his actions in this process have been out of the scope of justice.

Then, Lord Farr, In your mind, can the actions of the protagonist be defined as justice?”

“People are complex collections, whether a person is just is not simply through one or several things. It can be defined.

Theo’s goal and starting point are undoubtedly just, but the process of reaching the goal can’t be called justice. But in my opinion, he can still be regarded as justice The party.”

Slightly sipping the fountain of magic, the Speaker opened his mouth slowly.

“As Lord Zast just said, fairness is relative, and so is justice.

If fairness often requires a choice between the majority and the minority, then Justice often requires a choice between the process and the result.

For the justice of the result, Theo gave up the justice of the process, which can also be called a kind of justice.”

“The justice of the process, and the justice of the result?”

looked thoughtful nodded, Anves looked at the speaker who was drinking leisurely in front of him, and the hourglass with only the last half left, and also smiled.

Fate, this thing, is actually quite wonderful. If you meet them outside, there are two people who are likely to act and run away immediately. But under the arrangement of fate, they can sit together and chat ‘calmly’.

“Your Excellency Farr’s opinion is also quite original. However, it is a pity. Next, I happened to have an appointment with someone, so I am afraid I cannot accept your kind invitation.”

” It’s just, in the next stage play tonight, I don’t know whether Your Excellency ‘Fair’ is the audience offstage, or the leading actor on stage?”

Hearing this question, the Speaker gave Anves a faint smile. .

“What do you think, Your Excellency Justice? When the stage is big enough, is there any difference between onstage and offstage?”

At the same time, the last bit of silver sand in the hourglass fell. Just at this moment, the opening bell of the fifth and final act of the stage play rang.

“Looks like it’s time to part.”

He put away the hourglass and turned his back to the stage curtain that was slowly pulled up. The Speaker stood up.

“Goodbye, Your Excellency Zast, I hope we can see you again.”
