The fact that these resistance fighters dare to attack and kill us ans they see us as mortal enemies.
You have seen the look in the enemy soldiers’ eyes, perhaps they view us deserters as a cancer to the Kingdom that must be eliminated.
If we had entered the mountains and resisted at that ti, perhaps the situation would be very different now.
The Kingdom was already declining to its extremity, and now it remains incessantly embroiled in internal strife.
Our road to restoring the Kingdom, I’m afraid, is no longer passable.
I have a premonition that there is a force behind these people orchestrating it all; otherwise, they absolutely wouldn’t have the guts to do this!
No, the enemy’s conspiracy had already begun.
Perhaps from the mont we entered the Moxi Duchy, we fell into a grand conspiracy.
It is my fault for being careless, alertness should have been triggered when His Majesty drowned!”
In the midst of speaking, Borg fiercely slapped himself twice.
Such an obvious flaw, and yet he had managed to overlook it.
The King drowning was such unprecedented occurrence on the Continent of Aslante.
It happened for the first ti.
On the sa boat ride, two Kings tragically lost their lives.
At the ti, everything seed normal; after all, those two unfortunate Kings had been ticulously chosen failures who had regularly courted disaster dostically.
Upon further reflection, flaws appeared everywhere.
The guards on duty to protect the King happened to all be non-swimrs.
After the accident, it was the Moxi People who rescued the two unfortunate Kings.
They didn’t die on the spot but during the process of being treated by the Lord of the Dawn.
Indeed, both unfortunate Kings died under fatal treatnt thods.
The Priest who perford the treatnt was soone who had fled with us, whom Borg even knew.
They had no motive to commit regicide, so the problem must lie with the Moxi People who brought the Kings ashore.
Unfortunately, all this is re speculation; the problems were not detected at the ti, and it’s too late to investigate now.
The main issue is that both unfortunate Kings were re puppets, hastily crowned and yet to be recognized officially by other countries in the Continent as Monarchs of the Grassroots Team.
No one would have guessed that soone would assassinate these two puppets.
“Marshal, could it be that you’re overthinking it?
If the mastermind behind this was from Alpha, why would the Expeditionary Army rush to leave?”
The middle-aged officer shook his head as he spoke.
“Nonsense, I know it’s not the Alpha People.
If they truly had ambitions towards the Kingdom, they wouldn’t withdraw all their armies.
Don’t forget the Moxi People, their ambitions may not be smaller than those of the Alpha People!”
It was fine until he explained; once he did, everyone beca even more skeptical.
How could the tiny Moxi Duchy dare to plot against the Warhamr Kingdom?
That’s a joke, right?
However, after the laughter subsided, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
Now, where was there a Warhamr Kingdom?
All that remained were two Grassroots Teams and a bunch of chaotic warlords.
Without a head, the dragons might still dominate; but sheep without a leader cannot withstand the wolves’ gaze.
Unfortunately, they currently played the role of sheep.
Now, no matter who ascended to power, they could not command respect.
All prestige was squandered, and even Marshall Borg, who once held significant influence, now lacked the power to rally support.
The best choice was to swiftly promote a King and establish diplomatic relations with other nations.
Legally the most suitable candidate would undoubtedly be Joseph II, who had already abdicated.
But he was the very one they had all driven from power; reinstating him would be asking for more chaos in the Kingdom.
The idea of choosing another candidate sprang to mind, and Borg couldn’t shake it.
The only problem was that selecting a King was not up to him alone; he needed to garner support from all major factions.
In his mind, he pulled up all mbers of the Royal Family, compared and screened them one by one, and soon Borg was utterly bewildered.
There were plenty of puppet King candidates, but he could not find anyone capable of cleaning up the current ss.
The Royal Family wasn’t devoid of elites, but these elites had all, for various reasons, t with accidents during the previous internal struggles.
