THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 132: STRENGTH OF HEADQUARTERS
Facing the questions of the Serpent, Maron still smiled confidently "Don't worry, Baron Myro won't lose! Since I've already given him permission, I hope that the Military Governor of the Serpent doesn't make any more of this trouble".
Jerat and Maron continued to stare at each other sharply, then Jerat sighed "I understand, it turns out that Baron Myro has obtained the permission of the governor of Maron. But let me remind the governor, you should get ready, as long as Baron Myro loses then I will definitely catch you!".
"Then I will return to my office first, there are still many things that I have to do" said Maron who turned away from this place with the young man behind him.
The snare saw Maron who went coldly "The old man dared to fight me? At such an old age, he could only become a governor in the worst province in this Azeroth Kingdom. You can be governor even if it's just luck, people like you dare to go against me? We'll see if you can still be arrogant when Baron Myro loses".
...----------------...
On the other hand, Maron and the young man who always followed him from the barracks walked back to his governor's office.
Maron who was walking in front asked the young man behind him "Do you think this plan really works? If anything goes wrong, I must have been immediately released from my post or even executed by the Azeroth Kingdom, especially when Baron Myro suffered a defeat later, I must have been sentenced to severe punishment".
The young man behind Maron was his confidant. Maron met with this young man about 10 years ago, at that time this young man only lived in the streets and had absolutely no place to live which decided Maron brought him back and gave him food.
As a thank you, this young man gave his intelligence to help Maron, the help of this young man also that makes Maron can sit in the position of governor. Without this young man, Maron would probably never have been governor until he retired.
Therefore, Maron knew that the person he helped from the streets was a talent that made Maron appreciate him even more and already regarded this young man as his own representative. Not to mention this young man faithfully followed her for 10 years without committing any actions that harmed her, Maron became more trusting of this man.
Hearing Maron's words, the man smiled "Master need not worry, although this plan is risky, as long as it succeeds then you can get a better position than the governor. As you know, if Baron Myro were to lose, you would definitely be given the punishment to relinquish the governorship. But if Baron Myro wins, as the one who gave the permission, you will definitely get the award from the king. In addition, Baron Myro will be grateful because you have helped protect him from the pressure of the Trap".
"This plan is very risky, but there are big advantages as long as the plan is successful. I'm sure you're not interested in just quitting as governor, are you?".
Maron laughed loudly at the young man's words "You're right, I was always afraid to take risks that made me never get high office. But since I followed your advice, I can become the governor I am today, this time I am also confident in your plans. Your existence here is the best help to my political future!".
"Master helped me 10 years ago, without your help, I would have died on the streets from starvation. So, I should have helped master use my intelligence so that master could have even greater office in the future" the young man said as he bowed respectfully.
Maron nodded, he was very happy towards this young man who made his career shine even more. Even Maron had planned to marry his daughter to this young man in order for them to become a family, when this young man was already the husband of his daughter, he said, the loyalty of the young man must become even stronger because they will become a family.
After speaking for a while longer, Maron returned to his study while this young man went to his own room as well.
Maron already considered the young man like his representative, therefore this young man had a workspace for him in the governor's office, he always helped finish Maron's work in this room.
When he arrived at the office, the young man closed the door and made sure that no one was around.
If Myro had read this young man's letter, he would have been surprised because what this young man had written was "Shadow Hand Miss, everything had gone according to plan, Maron protected the lord so that the master could continue to attack without any problems".
The young man put the paper in a letter, then he said "Is there a messenger here?".
Suddenly the figure of a man wearing black clothes and covering his entire body except for the head appeared in the room, no one knew how the black-clothed man could appear in this room without any trace.
The young man was not surprised in the least because this black-clothed man was the messenger from the headquarters that the Shadow Hand had sent to receive the message from him.
The young man handed the letter to the messenger as he said "Make sure no one can read this letter except the Shadow Hand Miss".
"Even if I have to die though, I will not let this letter fall into the hands of others" said the black-clothed figure who disappeared back on the wall.
The young man nodded and went back to work again.
In fact, he has another identity: the base spy Lana sent from 10 years ago to Maron.
His goal was to help Maron increase his position to be more useful to Myro, when Maron was no longer useful or hostile to Myro, it was his duty to also clean up Maron.
He himself had no idea how many more spies the headquarters were like him in the entire Azeroth Kingdom, only Lana knew all of that information.
More precisely, the power of the headquarters was extremely secretive even from the members of the headquarters itself. Although both members of the headquarters, most of them had never met each other so they did not know each other.
Myro himself did not know clearly how powerful the headquarters in Azeroth Kingdom was. Of all the people, only Lana knew how much power the headquarters had spread throughout the entire Azeroth Kingdom to other kingdoms.
...----------------...
Myro was now starting another meeting with all of his high-ranking leaders in Folk City, after all they had already successfully completed their initial plan, so it was time to determine the next step.
"Ren, don't you think that the snare won't make it harder for us? However we started this war without permission, as a noble, I can be arrested for this reason", Myro asked to confirm again. Although he had heard from the beginning that Ren said this matter was nothing to worry about, but Myro still had to make sure.
Ren nodded "Master need not worry, we have Lapter in the court of the Capital of Azeroth Kingdom, we can say that master declared war for getting permission from him. As long as we win, Lapter won't be punished, there's even a chance he'll be rewarded for his master's victory. But Lana some time ago forbade me to tell Lapter this matter. Based on Lana's opinion, Lapter was the master's hidden hand in the government of the Royal Capital of Azeroth so it was better to keep his support of the lord as secret as possible. Because of this, Lana told me that she would find another way, it seems like Lana still has some headquarters power in the government of Azeroth Kingdom be it military or political that can protect the lord".
Myro nodded at the report "Lana won't talk like that if she can't do it, which means Lana can really protect me so we don't have to worry about this anymore. It is better that we discuss the next issue now, how is our next attack on the Orc-Goblin Kingdom going?".
