Chapter 108 Brasidas' Concerns

Brasidas is a very typical Spartan.

He prides himself on the Spartan tradition, abides by discipline and is skilled. With his upright character and strong personal strength, he has won the respect and trust of Kassandra.

Unlike most Spartans who are quicker than their brains, Brasidas often shows some idealist tendencies.

In situations where there is no need to use violence, he prefers to use diplomatic and strategic means to complete tasks assigned by his superiors without any bloodshed.

But this does not mean that Brasidas is a coward. When there is no other choice, Brasidas will show his superb combat skills.

"After the tragedy between Mirinje and Nicolaos's family, I thought Cassandra had long been dead."

When she led Xin Sheng and Nima to the interior of the manor, Brasidas said with some emotion: "I didn't expect that she was still alive after so many years. I really hope that Mirine can hear this good news."

When the Mount Tegers incident occurred, Brasidas was still very young, but he heard about the tragedy from his elders.

When Brasidas learned the news and rushed to the scene, everything was already settled.

After finding her dying young son from the cliff, Mirinie rushed to the temple of Hera in Argolis, and Brasidas has never seen her again since.

Entering the manor, Brasidas signaled Xin Sheng and Nima to find a place to sit first, and continue to go to the backyard to inform Darius who was still training to stay in shape.

About an hour later, Natiya, who had completed the task, returned to the manor tiredly.

Before she could enter the main building of the manor, Natiya heard the chuckle from the house, a strange female voice she had never heard before.

‘Is it possible…’

The expectation in her heart diluted Natiya's fatigue and accelerated her pace to enter the room. She saw Xin Sheng, who was discussing the structure of the hive sword with Darius at a glance.

"Xin! You're finally here!"

Xin Sheng, who was having aroused chat with Darius, was awakened by the call. Before he could raise his head, Dahuang, who had been sitting beside him, rushed out first.

Natiya squatted down in surprise and greeted Dahuang: "Long time no see you, Dahuang."

"Wang!"

Dahuang obviously remembers Natiya, waving her tail to please her arched around the girl's well-developed chest.

Xin Sheng couldn't help rolling his eyes when he saw this scene: 'lsp.'

After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Natiya's originally slightly immature temperament became more calm. Obviously, she also experienced a lot of tempering after separation.

When Natiya stood up again, Xin Sheng couldn't help but look surprised.

He thought it would be difficult for women to grow more obviously after they were 14 years old, but Natiya did not follow this rule.

More than half a year has passed, and Natiya's height has increased visible to the naked eye, which should have exceeded 1.7 meters.

Xin Sheng walked to Natiya with emotion and compared her height. This girl is only a little shorter than him now, and it is almost difficult to tell the naked eye.

Natiya generously gave Xin Sheng a warm hug. The soft touch on her chest made Xin Sheng's expression fluctuate for a moment.

"Well~ Long time no see, Natiya, you have grown a lot taller again."

"Hehe~ I didn't expect that I could grow taller."

Going over Xin Sheng's shoulder, Natiya saw Nima who was smiling and staring at them. After thinking for a moment, her eyes were filled with a sudden look.

Natiya let go of Xin Sheng and took the initiative to take a step back. Xin Sheng noticed her gaze looking at Nima.

"You should have heard Darius mention that this lady is the old man's daughter, Nima, a master of assassin with superb skills."

Darius is over 70 years old, and Nima is naturally not young.

Although Xin Sheng had not asked in detail, he probably thought that Nima was at least in her 30s.

Natiya is just 15 years old this year. In this era of early childbirth and early childbirth, Nima can already be her mother at her age.

After some self-introduction and greetings, five people, including Brasidas, finally got together to discuss the matter.

"First of all, let me explain the whole story."

As the owner of the manor, Brasidas stood up as the host of the party.

He roughly talked about his encounter and cooperation with Cassandra in Corinthia, and also placed the things that Cassandra had entrusted him to bring to Xin Sheng on the table.

In addition to the conventional artifact fragments, a bloody golden fabric attracted Xin Sheng's idea.

‘The Holy Wrap of Eden should be called Golden Wool in this era.’

The therapeutic effect of Golden Wool is very powerful. As long as you do not die on the spot, this artifact can cure all injuries.

But compared with its powerful abilities, the side effects of using golden wool are also great.

People who have used golden wool will continue to hear whispers coming from nowhere, and their tempers will become more and more irritable under the torture of noise.

Xin Sheng knew the origin of the whispering sound because the golden wool was housed in the consciousness of an ancient Yishu people, or...the soul.

This soul will only awaken briefly after the golden wool is activated, and it is difficult to get rid of the user's soul.

Xin Sheng speculated that this is one of the reasons why Demus has an extremely irritable temper.

"I worked with Kassandra to kill the 'trapper' who secretly controlled Corinthia and liberated Corinthia."

"After that, Kassandra learned about Mirinne's information from socialite Anshusha. In order to avoid her mother being found and assassinated by the God Cult, Kassandra plans to find Mirinne as soon as possible to protect her safety."

"Before leaving, Kassandra asked me to hand over these things to Sin, and asked me to help Natiya complete the task of catching the Spartan traitor."

Xin Sheng took over what Cassandra left to him, looked at Brasidas solemnly and asked, "So, you should already know the identity of the traitor, right?"

Brasidas showed a bitter expression on his face: "Yes, although he was unwilling to believe it, the evidence was conclusive and I could not allow any more fantasies."

"One of the two kings of Sparta, Bosanias of the Ajid family."

"snort!"

Darius snorted coldly: "I didn't expect that the heroic King Leonidas would have such an unfilial successor. He actually forgot the struggle and sacrifice of his ancestors, and chose to join the Divine Cult of Order."

Xin Sheng didn't care about Darius's sarcasm, and he was not the one who was stabbed anyway.

"Brasidas, what are you going to do?"

"Even if the evidence is conclusive, we as outsiders cannot identify Bosanias. This task is destined to be completed by Spartan citizens."

The style of Spartan city-state is extremely conservative and xenophobic. Outsiders who have nothing to do with Sparta are not qualified to meet the king at all, and it is even more impossible to summon the Presbyterians to depose the king who made mistakes.

Originally Xin Sheng hoped that Kassandra, who had the blood of the Ajid clan, would return to Sparta and get citizenship and would step down Bosanias.

But the plan cannot keep up with the change. Due to time deviation, Cassandra is going out to sea to find her mother's whereabouts.

The matter of exposing Bosanias' identity can only be left to other Spartan citizens, and this person must also have a certain status and influence in Sparta.

Brasidas is the most suitable candidate, and he himself knows it well.

Brasidas has been hesitating about this for some time.

No matter what the final outcome of this storm is, if one of the two kings is lost, Sparta's political situation will inevitably be greatly turbulent.

The trough vacancy left by Bosanias needs to be filled, and a handover of rights in open and secret struggle will inevitably affect Sparta's front-line combat effectiveness.

Xin Sheng patted Brasidas on the shoulder and persuaded earnestly: "I know what you are worried about, but it is better to have short pain than long pain."

"Continue to let Bosanias lurk at the peak of Spartan's rights, it will definitely cause more serious situations in the future."
