Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
The Right Blow In The Heart
"well, princess, from now on what are you going to do?"
Chris' cry had died down. It seemed like he had also been satisfied in Issac's embrace. Although he was surprised by Issac's teleportation ability, he decided not to ask about it.
"I.m still the same. I will give the throne to my other brother. But at least I have to fulfill the final obligation as the emperor's family."
It seems to remain so yes. Maybe this is the difference between Aurellia and Chris. As time went on, Aurellia's passion for becoming a queen would bring prosperity to the kingdom even stronger.
Meanwhile Chris, for too long bearing the heavy burden of being alone, gave up on becoming an empress who would occupy the next emperor's throne. But that doesn't mean he doesn't care about his people anymore.
In that case, Issac himself must also do some things to keep Chris' name clean and fragrant and ensure Chris' safety. He has also prepared various schemes for Chris' escape if the calculations are correct.
According to Issac himself, once the current emperor was about to die, internal turmoil was inevitable. The emperor had many children and of course just like the kingdom, they also wanted the throne.
Indeed Duke Manstein had a lot of power to turn one of the emperor's sons into a puppet, but information fell into the hands of Issac saying that several other sons of the emperor had established secret relations with the Moskov empire to establish themselves as the next emperor.
That way, civil wars might be waged in different areas of the empire and Moskov would intervene when the empire was hit by their internal political crisis.
Chris will obviously be dragged into the war if he stays here. That's why Issac had to save himself one day. Issac kisses Chris again.This time Chris receives the kiss and replies. He wants to do that now, but it's not the right time.
There's still a lot to do now. That's why, just like Chris, he must also carry out his obligations.

But half of his army was being sent to the northeast to fight the Moskov empire. So there were only about 5000 soldiers there. Because it's night, the majority of the soldiers are asleep. There were about 100 people standing guard and patrolling.
But they let their guard down because suddenly, an explosion occurred in the storage warehouse of war equipment and food. The fire spread quickly and the guards were late to put out the fire.
Some soldiers who had water magic instantly rushed over and extinguished the flames that had already spread throughout the warehouse. But in the midst of their efforts, suddenly a group of people dressed in Shinobi clothes attacked and killed them.
"Damn!!! Wake up the others!! Capture the turtles....ARGH!!"
One of the soldiers who seemed to be the commander of the headquarters shouted. But he was killed when one of the Shinobi stabbed him in the neck. The victims keep falling. But 20 minutes later, the ten-man Shinobi were defeated despite their assault on Duke Manstein.
From the clues they got, this group of Shinobi was sent by some Moskov imperial nobles who were at war to destabilize the position of the imperial troops far in the back line of battle.
The next day, news spread. It turned out that the incident did not only occur in the Duke Manstein area alone. The territory of Marquis Walden who became the main ally of Duke Manstein was also hit by the same problem. Even a fire has hit parts of the city.
The military power possessed by those two great nobles reduced significantly. Although the attack did not have too great an impact, the morale of the residents, soldiers, and nobles weakened. It was because they thought that it turned out that the Moskov empire could enter deep into the imperial territory.
Meanwhile, from the La-Sa guild's office in the Reichstaag, Issac only grinned. Step two, it works. The other nobles have not recovered their strength since the disaster occurred and now, the second blow came right at the heart of Duke Manstein and Marquis Walden.
After weakening their military power? What else should he do, huh? Issac circulated his gaze to get a good idea.
