The royal palace of Isala, Kingdom of Soroland:

King Rex of Thorolan is pacing anxiously at his pace, since the start of the war, our King Rex has hardly slept a peaceful night, to be honest, King Rex has miscalculated this time, he never expected that the Elok Empire would be so tough on his declaration of war this time, and he actually invested all his strength in the war, and his own borders can be said to be extremely tight for a while. The strength of the army is completely insufficient, and the comprehensive national strength of the Elok Empire is far above that of the Sauroran Kingdom, and as soon as it enters the war, all the knights of the Sauroran Kingdom are on the defensive. However, it has been forcibly pressed on the defensive line by the superior forces of the Arrow Empire, and the defenses everywhere are very tight, and it is almost the life of His Majesty the King.

What's worse is that King Rex has not been able to send any reinforcements to the front to support, and the transformation of the Praetorian Knights is still continuing. With the battle line tightening, the Praetorian Knights are now more and more arrogant, they are the most powerful armed force in Ishara City, if they are not loyal to the king, then King Rex will not even be able to sleep, let alone the war with the Arrow Empire.

For months into the war, King Rex was left to the resistance of the Knights of the Frontier on their own. Of course, he still made some necessary arrangements, sending some loyal troops from the north of the kingdom to the east and west to carry out the territory, watching the strong castles and defensive lines keep the superior forces of the Elok Empire out of the border.

As for Cecil in the middle line, King Rex is not completely unwilling to help, although King Rex is quite jealous of Cecil, but after all, it is a major matter of the state, and His Majesty the King cannot calculate him in this kind of matter. However, King Rex must keep enough troops in the vicinity of Ishara to defend against the Praetorian Knights in the city, so that the most powerful of the knights will not dare to rebel against him. Now there are really strong enemies on the outside and dissent on the inside, and the King Rex Market has a feeling of internal and external difficulties. He can only rely on Cecil to ask for more blessings, hoping that Cecil's ability to make himself jealous can help him turn evil into good fortune.

After a few months, through a series of unscrupulous means, King Rex finally cleared up the upper echelons of the Praetorian Knights, and let his henchmen take full control of the Praetorian Knights. What makes King Rex happy is that in these few months, the front line can barely be supported, the generals of the eastern and western fronts are their own descendants, and there will be people who send first-hand battle reports every day, although the eastern and western fronts are very tight, fortunately, the Elok Empire has not continued to invest in reserves, so it is barely able to withstand now, and now he can finally free up his hands to send several knights who are monitoring the Praetorian Knights around him to the northern front to support his army, but what worries him the most is Cecil's troopsThere were only two good-looking knights, and once the enemy broke through from the middle line, the entire open area of the kingdom would be exposed to the opposing line, so King Rex immediately sent a scout to contact Cecil and ask him if he needed help there.

As a result, before the scouts were sent, two waves of people were ushered in, the first wave was of course the fast horse of Count Cecil, who reported to King Rex the news of his victory, and King Rex seemed very unusual after hearing the news, and for a while he couldn't accept the authenticity of the news, and asked the messenger by the collar for a long time before confirming the news. It was simply overjoyed to him, but he didn't expect Cecil to unexpectedly achieve an unexpected victory! And on the contrary, he contributed to the cities of the Elok Empire, which had an unimaginable impact on the war situation. It is not impossible to defeat the Elok Empire on all fronts, and King Rex has already begun to think about it at this time.

Before the king could be happy, Cecil's messenger reported to King Rex that Cecil had executed the Grand Knight of Bartlet, and King Rex heard that his heart was "whining", and the fire suddenly rose, but on the surface it was not visible at all, and outsiders still could not see what our King was thinking.

In fact, King Rex and the Grand Knight of Bartlet do not have any friendship, and even if it were King Rex himself, I am afraid that he would find a way to kill this Grand Knight, who himself is his younger brother Lucas's man. And this person's ability, King Rex has long looked down on him, so Cecil's disposal of him is also in line with King Rex's mind to a certain extent, but King Rex is still angry in his heart, the reason is very simple, whether the Knight of Bartlet deserves to die, that can only be decided by the king, Cecil An ordinary lord has no right to decide anyway, today an earl can kill a knight leader, tomorrow a duke can kill an earl, and in the long run, won't the whole kingdom be messed up? As a king, the most important thing is that everyone lives under order, and the king at the top of the pyramid of order is the most authoritative, if everyone ignores the authority of the king, then what is the difference between the king and the salted fish?

However, King Rex is deep in the city, and although he is extremely dissatisfied with Cecil in his heart, he has not revealed it at all on the surface. He even scolded the Grand Knight of Bartlet at Cecil's messenger, and said that what Cecil did was very much in line with his heart, and he had long wanted to punish the Grand Knight of Bartlet, but he didn't expect him to run away from the battle, so it was natural for Cecil to remove his official position. If he still didn't listen to orders, it was only natural that he would be killed by Count Cecil. I would never have any dissatisfaction with Count Cecil because of this matter, Count Cecil did what he wanted to do but did not do, and he was also very happy.

The messenger was relieved after receiving the king's reply, and Cecil directly killed the great knight of Bartlet, although he was relieved, but the old man in the barracks was still worried that the king of Rex, who was accustomed to being self-respecting, would not understand this matter, and what did he think of Cecil, when the messenger came, he was instructed by Corian to explain this matter to the king clearly, and the messenger's heart was also worried that this matter would not be understood by the king, and he was put on the ground when he saw that the king was so considerate of his messenger's heart that had been hanging.
