371: Chapter 35, The Ferocious Orc Army (Seeking Votes)_1 371: Chapter 35, The Ferocious Orc Army (Seeking Votes)_1 Looking at the pitiful Viscount Gio, Hudson couldn’t help but wonder if he was being too harsh.
However, this bit of compassion was fleeting.
A corrupt bureaucrat who drinks the blood of soldiers really isn’t worthy of sympathy.
The racial war is so brutal, anyone sabotaging our efforts at this crucial juncture deserves whatever punishnt they get.
For scum and losers, Hudson didn’t have any sympathy left.
Even though Viscount Gio looked miserable, it was his own doing.
He has no one but himself to bla.
Regret now?
Where was this feeling before?
If it wasn’t for these bureaucrats ssing things up, we might not have been able to turn the tide of the war.
But at least the morale of the frontline soldiers of the Moxi Duchy would have been much better.
“Viscount Gio, why are you in my camp late at night instead of sleeping?
Did you think you were wronged during the day and want to recover your losses now?
Or do you think I’m easy to bully, and willing to tolerate your reckless behavior?”
Hudson said with a mockingly.
Maintaining a noble’s dignity depends on the person.
For scums like Viscount Gio, they do not deserve his respect.
Seeing this, the face of Viscount Gio beca even more unsightly.
If possible, he really wanted to tear Hudson apart.
Unfortunately, the gap in power and status between the two was too huge.
Even if he used all his connections, he couldn’t harm Hudson at all.
His so-called friends who used to call him brother, all avoided him like the plague after receiving the news.
With nurous plans but without the ability to execute them, the desire for revenge could only be buried deep in his heart.
Under pressure from his colleagues, Viscount Gio had to bite the bullet and apologize to his most hated enemy.
“Honorable Earl Hudson, what happened during the day was purely a misunderstanding.
It was entirely our fault because we failed to identify who you are.
I am extrely sorry for the trouble this has caused.
Now, on behalf of the Logistic Departnt, I assure you that such a thing will never happen again!”
It’s not a blank check, given the bitter lesson of his experience, the bureaucrats of the Logistic Departnt have already been put on notice.
Being ignorant and wicked, haggling over the unknown, it took just one incident to awaken everyone.
During his speech, Viscount Gio was filled with regret.
If he had asked a few more questions and found out Hudson’s identity, this whole ss would have been avoided.
Unfortunately, there is no dicine for regret in the world.
Having been beaten and almost dying wasn’t the worst of it.
Even whether he could leave in one piece was dependent on Hudson’s rcy.
If things continued to get out of hand, he wasn’t sure how many people would be implicated, but as the one directly responsible, his death would certainly be an ugly one.
Worse yet, he may be labeled as a “traitor” colluding with the Orcs.
Not only his life was at stake, but his clan would also suffer from this mistake.
“Hehe!
If Viscount Gio is just here to say these things, then you can leave now.
We, the Layton County Legion, ca all this way to assist your country on behalf of the Alpha Kingdom, we deserve so recognition for our efforts, don’t we?
We arrived at the front line, only to be subjected to such unfair treatnt.
Even if I can forgive this, the dignity of the kingdom is inviolable.
Viscount, do you believe the dignity of my Alpha Kingdom is so cheap that it can be redied with a simple apology?
To be honest, I have prepared to write to the Capital, proposing to the great Caesar III to withdraw the kingdom’s support troops from the Moxi Duchy.”
Hudson declared.
Such an opportunity to press one’s advantage is not easy to co by.
After all, Viscount Gio has no way to verify with Caesar III.
Regardless of whether the Alpha Kingdom will withdraw its troops because of this, they can’t afford to gamble.
As soon as the news breaks, the Moxi Duchy will have to provide an explanation.
“Your Excellency the Earl, this cannot be.
The situation on the frontline is urgent.
Without reinforcents, it will lead to a disaster.
Please give us another chance for the sake of the Human Race.
Whatever you request, as long as we can do it, we will try our best to et it.”
Viscount Gio pledged once more.
He was truly scared this ti.
Although neighboring countries have promised to send reinforcents, the leading core is still the Alpha Kingdom.
If the Alpha Kingdom, being the initiator, decides to “withdraw its troops”, the promised reinforcents from other nations will likely dissolve as well.
Without reinforcents, the Moxi Duchy could potentially collapse.
If such a big incident happens, not only the citizens of the kingdom won’t spare him, but even the vested interest group behind the Logistic Departnt won’t bear to wipe him out.
Hearing Viscount Gio’s vow, Hudson smirked and spoke carelessly, “What do you an, ‘anything I demand’?
Shouldn’t it be sothing you should still offer as a compensation?
I won’t labor the point, you decide what the dignity of the Alpha Kingdom is worth, and act accordingly!
You’re probably not the decision-maker here.
You’d better go back and negotiate with the people who are, and see what kind of sincerity they can offer.
After all, the dignity of the kingdom is inviolable.
Any country or organization that dares to challenge it will receive the strictest punishnt!”
What he wants doesn’t matter, what matters is what these guys are willing to offer.
However, expecting them to cut their own flesh is clearly not realistic.
Whatever they end up paying, the Moxi Duchy will most likely foot the bill.
This ans that there’s a limit to what they can offer as compensation, and it will probably be sothing they already have on hand.
