"Is it, Brother Wang, has he already taken action?" Amsoil sat on the main seat, beside him stood a man dressed in red, and under his seat were more than a dozen generals in military uniforms, including four of Amsul's generals - Guillermo, Poli, Taifu and De Theon.

"Your Highness, we might as well wait until Walter sends troops before deciding when to send troops! According to intelligence, Walter is also supported by some nobles!" General Taifu, who only has a few strands of hair left, looks anxious, and the other generals do not move, only he wipes the sweat from his forehead while constantly turning his feet.

"We've waited long enough, and after that statement from the Papal States begins, we should know that no one will help us this time," the Count de Theon, with sideburns and a black beard, stood in front of Taifu, and he turned his head to stare into Taifu's eyes, "Duchy of Noo, The Papal States and the Eastern Oguna Empire have long been out of the way, and as I said at the beginning, instead of wasting time making friends with these so-called supporters, it is better to intercept Bradley and Walter as they pass through the sphere of influence of Bone Ruine!"

"What do you mean by this? We are all under the orders of His Highness Amsol, are you not satisfied with His Highness's arrangement?"

"Hmph!, I was the only one who was assigned the task that His Highness Anso had given me at the beginning, and neither you nor Poli had completed the task that should have been completed, and Guillermo's task still needed time to verify, which is why I was not satisfied with the status quo!!" De Theon's roar startled Taifu, who almost fell to the ground, but fortunately the generals behind him helped him.

Some of the words that Detheon uttered were from Amme's heart.

Amsoil had long been preparing for the capture of the kingdom of Salins, and in the eyes of the king's illegitimate son, Byron had only a trace of guilt for his feelings, and more of an inexplicable anger, which was clearly perceived by Ansol at a very young age. Growing up angry, Amsoil learns to hide his actions and try not to let King Byron notice him so that he can avoid being harmed. Later, Amsoil found that this anger was transferred to his half-brother Bradley, but King Byron's love was not left to Amsol, but to Walter, who only knew how to do superficial work and only knew how to say pleasant things!

This choice made Amsoil even more apathetic, and he would lock himself in some windowless room in Bone Ruins City, not talking to anyone, and not coming out of there until he was hungry. As he grew older, Amsoil began to install his own forces, and he knew that most of these actions were watched by Byron, but he did it silently, because he believed that if he continued to work hard, he would one day get his share of it, including the throne in the palace of Mallot.

Before Walter returned, Amsoil handed over four final tasks to the four generals, among whom Viscount Poli had failed, and his grandfather did not want to return to the kingdom of Salins, but remained in the Duchy of Mageni to continue to serve as a rebel. For Amsol, this is the equivalent of losing a man who has restored his reputation - it is difficult to take the throne, and it is even more difficult to secure the throne, and the compassion of the people is a very good thing, and using their compassion can help him to take the throne!

Taifu's mission is to befriend the Papal States next to his territory, and the archbishop who recently eliminated the former pope has given a statement against Amsoil becoming the prince, which has already shown that Taifu's mission has also failed. Another henchman, Detheon, is tasked with contacting the Mercenary Guild in the hope of gaining support from the most powerful mercenary group on the mainland. Unexpectedly, the mercenary union, which has always valued money as the most important thing, gave an ambiguous attitude - on the one hand, they claimed that the funeral mercenary group was the head of the region of the Kingdom of Salins, and on the other hand, they hinted that they could consider sending other mercenary groups into the kingdom. Amsoil can't contact the funeral mercenary group at all, this mercenary group that has been hidden is extremely low-key, and it is not clear where it is in the Kingdom of Salins, Ansoil only hopes that this mercenary group has not been bought by Bradley, after all, it is rumored that the funeral mercenary group has always maintained a cooperative relationship with Bradley.

"Old General Guillermo, the mission you completed before may become the key to this battle," Ansoil frowned, he looked at Guillermo with a solemn expression, "I don't know if Walter has the strength to compete with me, but Bradley is definitely ready to fight me to the death, and when I returned to Mallotte from the west half a year ago, I knew that he would not be willing to give up the throne." Bradley was like a fishbone in his throat, and his reappearance made Amsoil suffer during this time, especially after King Byron conferred on him the title of prince.

Guillermo was full of white hair, he was wearing a half-human tall heavy sword, and a set of pure white plate armor, "Please rest assured, Your Royal Highness, with the old minister, you can definitely take down Bradley's kid, and the others are not afraid!" The old general's words made the other generals immediately calm their emotions, and they heard the news from Mallotte early in the morning, Bradley had announced to the entire Kingdom of Salins the call to defeat Queen Rosemund, which means that Bradley has prepared his army to accept all possible challenges. Amsol's subordinates knew that Bradley was young and promising, but they didn't expect him to act so quickly, and the nobles who had gathered from all over the northern part of the kingdom to Bone Ruins suddenly felt that they had taken a step backward and were falling behind in this battle for the throne.

"Chenpoli has the same opinion as the old general, Bradley is just a milky boy, we are all battle-hardened warriors, and even if he keeps his territory in order, his opponents are nothing more than pirates and bandits. We have been ready to follow His Highness Amso for many years, and with the determination to see death as home, we will definitely support His Highness Amso as the new monarch of the Kingdom of Salins!" the other generals chimed in, even the sweaty Taifu, but his voice was obviously the weakest and lightest.

Ansu looked at his men, he was ready to fly, and the only people he could rely on were them and some of them in Mallot. The nobles of other countries who had secretly befriended him also hid after Byron fell ill, and after Bradley and Walter returned home, they put on a different face and became a wait-and-see faction hiding in the distance.

"My king, you don't have to worry, aren't our forces enough to crush our opponents?" the man in red standing beside Anme suddenly said in a woman's voice, no one would know that he was a man without looking at his face.

Poli Lang replied, "The 30,000 troops assembled in Broken City, and the 80,000 troops assembled in Bone Ruins City, plus the military strength of other regions, our army in the northern part of the kingdom exceeds 150,000 people, and this army can solve all problems anywhere on the continent. Bradley, on the other hand, only brought so few troops to Mallot, and Walter did not have any definite force to support him, so such an enemy was like an ant, and he would die if he stepped on it. ”

"It would take ten days to get from Bone Ruins to Mallot, and Bradley's sphere of influence was further away from Mallot, and even if he began to gather his forces when King Byron was ill, he would only bring with him a rabble of long journeys, which was nothing to mention to our army. Unless he thinks that the mercenary regiments in Mallotte can help him win this battle, I think Bradley would have better surrender sooner. A subordinate general also chimed in.

Amsoil was certainly aware of his strength, and it had been his many years of hard work - in addition to establishing his own power in Mallot, he had also spent countless efforts to entrap the noble lords in the northern part of the kingdom, and these people who were willing to submit to him had accumulated strength for the past few years, for today.

De Theon disagreed, "Our army will be defeated! Our troops are strong, and our food and grass are abundant, but don't forget the possibility of Bradley and Walter joining forces!"

"yes, if the two brothers join forces and call the other noble lords together—" Taifu rolled his eyes, scanning the ground incessantly. The reason why Amsol's subordinates were willing to follow Amsoil and support him as king was largely because of Amsol's ability, and they believed that Amsoil could lead the declining kingdom of Salins to rise again and find an opportunity to unify the continent in the chaotic continental landscape. Taifu is different, he is for revenge, and his enemies are right on the opposite side of Amme.

Some of the generals began to whisper, but one of the agitated generals immediately shouted: "So what? Even if those two princes join forces, it is impossible to go against the will of heaven! King Byron became seriously ill immediately after appointing Prince Amel as prince, and this is the will of heaven!" King Byron's incompetence and mediocrity have made the ambitious and enterprising nobles unbearable, and they all think that King Byron's sudden illness is an opportunity from heaven to replace the new king and bring new life to the kingdom of Salins.

"My king, just like that time, you yourself returned to Mallot, and ensured that the woman was on your side. And this time... My king, you need to go into battle and take those two princes out of it yourself, so that nothing can stop you..."The feminine man in red gently pounded Amsol's shoulder, as if he was massaging Amsol. His words were like a warm breeze that blew into Amme's ears.

"That's right, I do need to go into battle myself," Ansoil slowly stood up as he propped himself up on the armrest of his chair, "Bradley has lived in the Frontier for more than a decade, and he and Winlith won't be my match, let alone Walter. They are just a small stumbling block to my ascension to the throne, and as long as that woman remains loyal to me, the kingdom of Salins will definitely fall into my hands!"
