THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 191: TORTE REBELLION
The day before Myro left for Grand Duke Rayde, he called Ren to his office.
Although Ren was busy preparing for their trip tomorrow, when Myro called him then Ren threw all the work aside.
However, according to Ren, more precisely all Myro followers who come from the World, helping Myro is the most important than all other tasks. Therefore when Myro called him, Ren would have preferred to come to see Myro first.
Myro who was sitting in his study heard the sound of the door opening, without looking directly, he already knew the person who came was Ren.
"Sir, is there a problem until you have to call me?", asked Ren who approached Myro's desk carefully.
Myro gazed at Ren before throwing a pile of documents at him "The document records the current state of Grand Duke Rayde's territory, the information coming from the headquarters so that the truth need not be doubted. Read first the information the headquarters provided, I'm sure you'll understand about the oddity in Grand Duke Rayde".
Hearing Myro's words, Ren began to read the information documents he had in his hand.
With Ren's intelligence, he was able to read the stack of documents for about 4 minutes.
Ren closed the documents in his hand before putting them on the table.
"What do you think about the information issue from the headquarters? In your opinion, why would Carla who is Grand Duke Rayde invite us?", Myro asked waiting for Ren's opinion.
Ren did not directly answer Myro's question but instead opened his folding fan first to cover half of his face "Master, the state of Grand Duke Rayde's territory is much more difficult than I thought! I don't know if there's any enmity between Carla and Loir for the title of Grand Duke Rayde, however the headquarters can't figure out the truth. But if you ask my opinion, it is likely that Loir and Carla are both not greedy for the title of Grand Duke. Loir tries to let Carla remain the Grand Duke, as well as Carla who plans to pass the title of Grand Duke to Loir".
"The reason is none other than Carla considers Loir as her own child, as well as Loir who considers Carla as her mother so they do not mind the other party getting the title of Grand Duke because they are both family. For this reason as well, Carla sent Loir to Herfu. Herfu was Carla's father, so Carla could trust Herfu to guard Loir at the border. Carla sends Loir to the battlefield not to kill him, but to let Loir learn to become the future Grand Duke's heir through Herfu, the border general".
Myro nodded slightly. At first he thought Carla and Loir were hostile towards each other to seize the title of Grand Duke, but after reading the information from the headquarters then Myro changed his mind. Be it Carla or Loir is not interested in taking the title of Grand Duke from the other party, even they try to give each other the title.
"Then, why was Grand Duke Rayde's former right-hand man, General Torte fighting secretly? Moreover, they fought Carla and tried to take her Grand Duke title on the grounds that Carla wrested the title of Grand Duke Rayde from Loir?", asked Myro "Did Torte not know at all that Carla did not take the title of Grand Duke from Loir but Loir himself who agreed to give the title to his mother, Carla?".
"When Torte knew Loir respected Carla, but she was still rebelling, then that doesn't mean Torte-goal", Myro tried to say his opinion.
But without waiting for Myro to finish speaking, Ren immediately continued Myro's saying "Master is right, most likely Torte's goal is to seize the title of Grand Duke for himself. The problem is that the noble title in Azeroth Kingdom can only be inherited from the noble family, Torte is not a member of the Grand Duke Rayde family so he should not inherit the Grand Duke title".
"But he fought a tacit resistance that kept the royal family from stopping them - No, there is a possibility that Torte and the rebels were supported by the Azeroth Royal family. No matter how great the power of the Grand Duke in Azeroth Kingdom was, King Azeroth V would definitely not waste the opportunity of throwing away a Grand Duke Family. As long as Carla and Loir die at the hands of the rebels, no one can inherit the title Grand Duke Rayde".
"The absence of an heir means all of Grand Duke Rayde's power and territory must return to royal hands. As for Torte, he must have been offered King Azeroth V another title such as Count or Marquis if Grand Duke Rayde was successfully eliminated".
"It seems that we will be in trouble again" Myro said with a sigh, he never thought that trouble kept coming to him "Then, why did Carla invite me?".
"Maybe Carla just took the master to her son's birthday party because the master was Loir's friend and Earl-level noble" Ren said "But I'm sure the 2nd possibility is much more accurate, Carla invites you to seek your help against the Torte rebellion. Although General Herfu is a northern border general who has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, do not forget that most of General Herfu's troops belong to the kingdom".
"The man who helped Torte's rebellion was also likely to be from the royal family, therefore Herfu was simply unable to move his army. More precisely, King Azeroth V must have forbidden Herfu from moving. Without the help of Herfu, Carla and Loir can only seek the help of a lord who has lately been considered a young hero of Azeroth Kingdom".
Myro closed his eyes while thinking, although there was no evidence Ren's thought was right but Myro felt it was true because before calling Ren here, Myro had thought the same thing.
Slowly Myro opened his eyes again and said with firmness "Tell Garwein to go to Loth City with the 5500 knights he had, the care of Mug City was handed over to Gladius. After all he was guarding the entire Orc city, there was no harm in guarding Mug City as well. Garwein's goal here was to make preparations, as long as I was in Rayde City to call him then he had to bring 5500 knights away as quickly as possible to help me".
"I don't plan on helping Carla, but I'm sure she must have made an interesting offer so there's a chance I'll accept the task of helping her defeat the rebellion, there's no harm in getting ready. In addition, tell Retya also this problem, after all most of the new troops are under his training".
"Well, sir!", said Ren who rushed away from Myro's study, he would perform the task according to what Myro said.
As Ren left, Myro stood up from his window and looked up at the sky "I don't know if my current strength and Carla's with Loir were able to defeat the Torte rebellion backed by the royal family? But before that, I don't know if Carla can make an attractive offer to help her fight the Torte rebellion?".
