THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 167: REASONS FOR SENDING LUCA
After determining all that, Myro again received the loyalty of 5500 knights.
Performing a loyalty ceremony for that many knights, Myro had to spend hours before he could finish.
As the day approached night, Loir also returned from his journey with the troops he had to the surrounding towns.
But while in Fort Rulfes, Loir was very surprised by the appearance of thousands of additional troops belonging to Myro.
Although Loir wondered about the origin of the troops, but he did not dare to ask directly to Myro. After all everyone had their own secrets, therefore Myro would definitely not reveal how to obtain such an elite army.
Seeing Loir who did not question anything and continued to behave normally, Myro also threw away his worries. After all Loir must have noticed the change in the number of Myro troops, fortunately he did not ask so Myro also did not have to bother making excuses.
...----------------...
Time of peace continued to pass, since the 4 prisoners were no longer in Myro's hands, either Myro or the Orc-Goblin Kingdom began to stop attacking each other.
Guliger re-formed his 30,000-strong army that had fled earlier and recruited emergency troops among the residents, recruiting an additional 20,000 Orc Goblin soldiers from the emergency recruitment.
Although most of the emergency forces were only the residents who were given weapons, but with the addition of 20,000 troops then that was not at all an amount that could not be underestimated.
On the 2nd day after the summoning of 5500 knights, the Aras Family came to the Rulfes Fortress.
The moment they came, they immediately performed the ceremony of appointing Myro as the new head of the family.
Almost everyone in the Aras Family agreed because they knew, without the help of Myro, the Aras Family must be relegated to a normal family again and not be part of the nobility.
They had all felt the honor of being nobles as well as there were many residents who were polite due to their titles, so how could they possibly live as normal residents again?
For this reason, many Aras Families accepted Myro as the head of the family without any problems.
Except for Luca and his mother who had a strong hatred towards Myro, no one else showed their rejection to Myro.
On the same night since he became the head of the family, Myro gathered his father and some of the family elders as well as his oldest elder brother, Koris.
Myro nodded firmly "Father and the elders, you should think about the benefits that the Aras Family will get after this marriage is successful. With Luca's marriage, the Orc-Goblin Royal Family is sure to be our support, at least we won't have to worry anymore about the troops in the future. Moreover, if the Azeroth Kingdom were to throw us away even in the future, we could escape towards the Orc-Goblin Kingdom".
"Not only that, do not forget that Luca who married with the princess of the Orc-Goblin Kingdom will be appointed prince. You all know the meaning of the prince, right? That means Luca has a chance to be king! Although the territory of the Orc-Goblin Kingdom is very small compared to the Kingdom of Azeroth, in the end the king is still king!".
The elders and Baron Aras nodded, Myro's plan is indeed very profitable. When the marriage succeeds, in the future their Aras Family will have Myro become a noble in the Azeroth Kingdom as well as Luca who is a prince or maybe even a future king in the Orc-Goblin Kingdom.
Suddenly Koris raised her hand "Patriak, I have some questions. As we all know, Luca is irritable and a strong conceit, I don't think he would agree on marriage advice. Not to mention the Orcs were famous for their muscles as well as strength, the beauty in the eyes of the humans and Orcs was different. Therefore, I'm sure Luca must have refused. Although he agreed though, there was a possibility that the marriage would not work again due to Luca's nature".
"So I suggest it is better to send others who are not easily affected by anger or pride and prioritize family interests. If there was no suitable choice, I wouldn't mind sending myself as his male partner".
Myro was very surprised to learn that Koris suggested herself, she observed Koris while asking "Sister Koris, are you sure? Like you said, the Orcs don't match beauty for man-".
"Patriak, if it's for the benefit of the family, my own feelings don't matter at all" Koris said determinedly.
Myro smiled bitterly, This Koris really looks like Baron Aras who attaches importance to the benefits of the Aras Family. Despite having to sacrifice himself, Koris did not seem to mind one bit.
Myro waved his hand firmly "Can't, from the beginning I told King Albert about our male partner Luca. In addition to Luca being the famous talented child of the Aras Family, the Orc-Goblin Royal family definitely only accepted a gifted child as his daughter's partner. Then Luca is easily grumpy and arrogant, but I'm sure he doesn't turn down the offer if we tell him he can be a prince. Even in the future, he might be able to become king. Luca's always been interested in power, I'm sure he can't turn down the offer".
Seeing that Myro had already made up his mind, everyone in the room immediately bowed "We understand, patriarch".
The meeting was finally over, everyone returned to their respective rooms to rest in Fort Rulfes.
When Myro was walking towards his room, he found Koris chasing him from behind "Patriak, why didn't you send me? As long as I am sent, no matter what the Orc-Goblin Kingdom does to me, I will definitely maintain the marriage bond as best I can as long as it still benefits the Aras Family. If the patriarch refuses to send me because he cares about my fate to marry an Orc, I am very grateful for the patriarch's kindness. But I don't mind being his male partner, with me as a male partner then this marriage must have lasted a long time. At the very least, longer than Luca can do".
"While the patriarch offered Luca to be either a prince or a king, there was a chance that Luca would be persuaded by the Orc-Goblin Kingdom to attack the patriarch from behind in the future. Maybe not now, but the next 4 to 5 years will happen because at that time Luca has realized that the patriarch has thrown it away".
"Then why if Luca attacked me from behind?", asked Myro "Sister Koris, I will tell you 1 thing, we do not plan to continue cooperating with the Orc-Goblin Kingdom. For no apparent reason, I cannot attack the Orc-Goblin Kingdom recklessly because we have made peace. But if the Orc-Goblin Kingdom first attacked while sending Luca, I had reason to strike back at them and seize the entire Orc-Goblin Kingdom. For the next 4 to 5 years, I would already have the power to attack the Orc-Goblin Kingdom".
"Therefore, I sent Luca because I already knew he would definitely betray me which was the reason to strike back against the Orc-Goblin Kingdom. If I send Brother Koris, by your nature then you must not betray, even try to restrain the Orc-Goblin Kingdom from attacking me and the Aras Family. If that happens, I will have no reason to attack the Orc-Goblin Kingdom".
After that Myro walked away leaving Kori who was standing still on the spot, he was very surprised at Myro's distant plan thinking ahead.
