Chapter 111: Always

(This chapter was so hard to revise, it took more than two hours to write, and it took six hours to revise the draft.) Audience masters, do you think this should be counted as yesterday's second watch or today's first watch?

A sudden accident put Gossenstanda in a desperate situation. Even a Juggernaut who was able to defeat a hundred on the battlefield could not face thousands of opponents in such a confined space. What's more, there are two high-ranking warriors who have just defeated their companions.

Spartacus, I'm sorry.

The tribe will not forget you, the chieftain will not forget you, the people will not forget you, the orc heroes will be immortal, may the ancestors bless you!

Gersenstanda immediately launched a swift wind step and disappeared in front of people.

The breath disappeared and he fled. Danderma closed his eyes for a moment and said to Carlos.

And the royal guards who poured in were also stupid, the king was assassinated, the orcs suspected of criminals ran away, and the murderer was nowhere to be found, what should I do?

"General, the Kingdom Knights are assembled outside the city gate, and they are going to attack the city if they don't open the door again!" A herald from the Kingdom Guard crowded into the council hall and reported to the commander.

"I never gave the order to stop the Knights?!" the commander was a little surprised and dazed.

When the aristocratic officials saw that the king had been killed, the voices of discussion and exclamation finally broke out, and the entire council hall was in chaos.

The scene was chaotic, and Alex, who was holding the contract book, watched the whole farce coldly, and finally sighed and stood up to clean up the situation for his son.

"Quiet!" Alex walked to the Iron Throne.

"Quiet!" Alex crouched down beside Aiden, reaching out to close his friend's eyes.

"I say quiet!" Alex reprimanded abruptly to his feet.

"Soldiers!" Carlos wiped his blood with the Holy Light Technique.

"Here!" the guards loyal to Carlos stamped their feet, and the uniform slogan stimulated the king's guards who blocked the door, and the two sides exchanged swords and soldiers, and the nobles on both sides quickly dispersed and finally quieted down.

"My father, the patriarch of the Barov family, the Grand Duke of the kingdom, is going to speak, can't you hear me?" said Carlos.

"Your Excellency, Captain of the Guard, can you still control the Kingdom Guard?" Seeing that the scene had quieted down, Alex began to ask.

"It's up to General Sparrow to finally make the kingdom. The captain of the Kingdom Guard said coldly.

As Aiden's recently promoted confidant, the troops led by Sparrow are actually independent of the Kingdom Guard, although they bear the name of the Kingdom Guard, and the Captain's speech is not a simple run.

Aiden's original plan was to subdue the domestic nobles first, and then subdue the royal knights of Alterac in the United Nations. Intentions are good, but plans are not always as good as change. The Knights, who were asked to be stationed outside the city, discovered the commotion in Alterac City, and applied to enter the city but were rejected by the gate guards, and asked to meet with the prefect only to be told that the person in charge was in a meeting. As the turmoil in the city grew, the leaders of the Knights could not sit still, and immediately there was a warning of a threat to the siege.

Although Sparrow had nearly 2,000 men at his disposal, some of them were selected from the original Kingdom Guard, and the other part was a large number of new recruits. In front of the captain of the guard, Sparrow dared to put on a show, and his heart was weak and uneasy in the face of the commotion of the Royal Knights.

"Of course I am loyal to the king...... Loyal to the royal family...... Loyal to the Kingdom...... That's right, I'm loyal to Alterac!" Sparrow was stared at by hundreds of dignitaries, and a nervous cold sweat fell.

Aiden relied on him only because of his loyalty, not because of his talents. At this moment, Sparrow, who was holding a heavy army, actually messed up and panicked.

"Leave a hundred soldiers in order then, and let the rest of the soldiers return to camp, General. Alex said.

"Yes, Your Excellency, no problem, Your Excellency. Sparrow felt the order was good and hurried to leave.

"Your Excellency, as an important security force in Alterac City, I think you are qualified to participate in the rest of the memories, let your adjutant carry out the dismissal of the soldiers back to the camp. Alex added.

"Of course... I mean, okay, I'm honored. Sparrow was a little surprised and a little fluttering at Alex's lift.

"Your Excellency, Captain of the Guard, please take a trip yourself, so that the knights of the Royal Order of Barons and above can also participate in the rest of the memories. Alex continued.

"Your Excellency the Duke, the contract ......"

When Alex stepped up to preside over the situation and the chaos was contained, the King's fellows remembered something terrible.

"Do you not think that it is imperative to discuss the issues and actions of His Majesty Aiden after his death...... Your Majesty is vengeance?" Alex said with difficulty, a wave of resentment softened in his chest, and when he turned around, the Grand Duke glared at his eldest son viciously.

"Father, this orc sword master is not dead, I think he has the value of rescue, but it is too dangerous for ordinary people. I suggest that Master Dandema keep an eye on him, what do you think?"

While waiting for the head of the Royal Knights to arrive, Carlos lifted the fallen fire-bladed sword of Saint Spartacus.

At this moment, Alex has no time to care about an orc who is going to die, and the lords will not offend the person who is most likely to become a king because of an orc at this juncture. As a result, Carlos's recommendations were quickly implemented.

"Find the kid. ”

The two guards left on the strong orc Juggernaut, and as Dandelmar picked up the obsidian greatsword on the ground and prepared to go along, Carlos took the opportunity to whisper in the Night Elf's ear.

Danderma frowned, said nothing, and left.

The bodies of the orc female swordmaster and King Aiden were still lying on the ground, and the guards did not dare to touch the bodies until they received orders from the adults. It wasn't long before the principals of the Royal Order arrived.

"Your Majesty!"

"What's going on!"

In the midst of the chaos, the meeting that determines the fate of the kingdom of Alterac begins.

The most critical and important issue is who will be the next king?

Alex Barov, with the contract in hand, did little to subdue the centrists. The most diehard opponents and the royal faction in the Royal Order are entangled in the existence of a legitimate heir among His Majesty's descendants.

The argument lasted for several hours, until the queen appeared and denied that she and Aiden had any surviving offspring, and Carlos finally got the long-awaited crown before the sun set.

And the question of who the king is is solved, the rest of the questions are not a problem.

It wasn't until the middle of the moon that the council hall, which had been lively for a day, finally quieted down.

The grieving queen, the corpse of Aiden, the father and son Carlos and Alex, the figures of the three of them swaying in the candlelight reflected on the empty wall, an indescribable grudge.

"Alex, are you satisfied?" asked the queen, with resentment in her words.

"Sasa, it's an unexpected ......," Alex tried to explain, but was interrupted by the Queen.

"I don't love Aiden, at least at the wedding, I tried to run away. But decades have passed in a blink of an eye, and this man has protected me for decades. And I, in order to protect my family, betrayed this man......" said the queen to herself.

"Sasa, don't do that. Alex said in an almost pleading tone.

"I know, I understand, I'm not going to kill myself, at least for a couple of years I need to be alive, it's part of the deal, I know. And the new King, Your Excellency the Grand Duke, can I bring my husband home?" asked the Queen.

Alex felt unable to say anything, so he turned his head to look at Aiden's pale face on the ground.

"Guards, go and ask the head of the royal family to take care of the aftermath for His Majesty Aiden. Carlos gave orders for his father.

Soon, only father and son were left in the entire council hall.

The Iron Crown was placed on the Iron Throne by the attendants, Alex walked over slowly, bent down to pick up the Iron Crown, and slowly walked to his son's side, placing the Iron Crown on top of Carlos.

"After tomorrow's coronation, you will be king, my son. ”

Alex said in a deep voice.

"Yes. ”

"Burn that contract in public, and your position will be unbreakable. ”

Alex continued.

"Okay. ”

Alex suddenly slapped Carlos in the face.

"Is it so important to break the crown? Don't you understand that you have broken the rules of the nobles, and you have changed the political atmosphere in the kingdom? From now on, there will be no more warmth, no more tolerance, and all that remains of the kingdom of Alterac is power and profit. The days when you need guards to even sleep, the days when you are ready for assassination, is that what you want? My stupid son, your father has very few friends, and there will be none after today!"

After Alex finished speaking, tears flowed uncontrollably.

"Father, this crown will be yours if you wish, and I am not unfamiliar with it. Carlos tried to take off the Iron Crown, but Alex held his hands down.

"Shut up! I don't have friendship anymore, are you going to use shit to make me lose my affection?" Alex stared at his son

"Would you believe me if I said that I didn't arrange the Assassins?" asked Carlos.

"If you dare to swear by the light of your faith, I will believe. Alex replied.

For a long time, the father and son looked at each other speechlessly.

"I'm tired, you should go to bed early, there are still many things to do tomorrow." After Alex finished speaking, he turned away physically and mentally exhausted.

"You know, Aiden never wanted to kill me, let alone kill you. He's just a rotten guy with a fierce look. As I said earlier, a bad man is not a good king. ”

At the gate, Alex stopped and said this, and then left without looking back.

Sitting on the Iron Throne, Carlos felt the weight of the Iron Crown and had a lot of thoughts.

"Sorry, I didn't find the kid. ”

I don't know when, Dandelmar came to Carlos's side.

"Thank you, thank you. ”

"Uh...... You are welcome. ”

Dandelmar didn't understand why he was disappointed, and Carlos had to thank him, but he agreed.

"Master, it's hard work, but can I ask you to protect my father tonight, to protect the contract?" asked Carlos.

"Okay, no problem. Danderma responded to Carlos' request.

"Thank you. ”

"You're welcome. ”

This time, Dandemar replied decisively.

After the Night Elves left, Carlos seemed to be the only one left in the Council Hall sitting alone on the Iron Throne.

"Is the child in the arms of the female elf that the master let go sure it is a girl?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a merciless person. ”

"Retirement? This is not the way to treat heroes. ”

"I'm going to give you a favor, you can't refuse. ”

"Time will tell, I am the right. From today on, as long as I have a bite to eat, I won't miss a bite of yours. ”

When the candlelight went out, everything returned to normal, as if everything just now was just the whispering of the new king.

"Little tail of fate, I finally got you. Carlos clenched his fists, exhaustion and confusion fading from him.

If the king is powerless, then I will overthrow it

If the king is born sinful, then I am willing to redeem.

If the king is destined to be lonely, then I am willing to bear it.

"Terenus, I won't give you the chance to judge Alterac and the Barov family. Because I'm the right!" Carlos roared in a low voice.
