Bardloche’s army was currently using a building in Nalthia as its headquarters. The prince and his top officials had been locked in the meeting room all night and day, investigating and deciding on their next plan—

Someone barked in the room. “You’re kidding! Are you serious?!”

The voice, now hoarse with fury, came from Prince Bardloche himself. His leaders sat in a row before him. Though their master was furious, their expressions were resolute, ready for battle.

“I would never say that on a whim or to save face. Understand that this was a unanimous decision. Let me say it again: Your Highness, please take this opportunity to go through with the baptism.”

“………!” Bardloche’s face instantly twisted. “Have you forgotten that we’ve taken this city for justice?! We needed to put an end to Demetrio’s tyrannical ideas! Touting justice and chasing out Demetrio, only to do the same thing, will make me a joke for generations.”

“No one is laughing. You must know, Your Highness, the people wish for a new Emperor as soon as possible. With this sweeping victory, they are now certain that you, Prince Bardloche, are the most suitable for the role, and they are hoping for your quick ascension. Betraying them and returning to our own territory will turn us into laughingstocks!”

They weren’t backing down, even when Bardloche scolded them. Far from it, in fact. Bardloche didn’t have control over them.

“…What about Manfred? We collaborated under the condition that I return to my own domain after putting a stop to Demetrio. If I betray him, he won’t stay silent.”

“It’s just what we need. If you defeat Prince Demetrio and Prince Manfred, there would be no greater proof that you’re qualified to become Emperor.”

Bardloche tried his best to put an end to this discussion. Both sides were snapping at each other. Tensions were mounting…until Lorencio rapped on the table and got their attention, ending his silence.

“Let’s take a short recess. You’re losing your composure.”

“Sir Lorencio, this is a grave matter. We have no time to waste!”

“Precisely why we must clear our heads. If we could place Prince Bardloche on the throne through wishful thinking, it would have happened ages ago.”

Lorencio was an earl and the most senior member among them. Other leaders went silent, though reluctantly.

“…All right. We’ll take a short break. Collect your thoughts,” Bardloche said.

The meeting went into a short recess.
