THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 195: TRAPPED
The party finally began, the nobles and officials around talked and laughed while most of the others surrounded Carla to talk to her.
Different from the faces of everyone who was smiling, Myro's face was now very gloomy. Not only Myro, the faces of Ren and Yorou were not very good either because they realized a strange thing here.
"Master, it seems that we are stuck" Ren said with a bitter smile "Who thinks all of our previous plans have failed, it turns out that this party invitation is the worst possibility we thought of before".
Myro nodded, he was not a fool like the other invited guests who could still laugh happily at this death feast.
Why did Myro become suspicious of Carla's party? The answer is easy, the birthday person or the main star of the party does not appear at all.
This party should be Rilia's birthday, why hasn't she come to her own party yet? All the other guests did not care about Rilia because they cared about Carla more, as long as they made Carla happy then they could get the support of Grand Duke Rayde.
But Myro found a strange look on Loir's or Carla's face now, even though they were smiling but there was something strange about their smile.
Besides, General Herfu isn't here. The war with the Orc-Goblin Kingdom has ended so Herfu must have some free time for his grandson, then why is Herfu still not here? Carla and Loir did not invite Herfu, more precisely because they knew the party this time was a feast of death, most likely Carla or Loir forbade Herfu from coming for various reasons such as he was too old which was not suitable for the party of young people.
"Ren, are you sure you can get out of Rayde City alive and go back to Loth City?", Myro asked in a small voice to Ren so that no one could hear him.
"With my own strength it might be difficult, but Lana told me the strength of the headquarters in Rayde City before we set out. Therefore, I must have returned to Loth City without any problem using the power of the headquarters. But how could I leave master? Wouldn't it be better for you to leave here because staying here is too risky" Ren said.
Myro shook his head "Don't worry, there's Yorou and 100 swordsmen with him, I'll definitely be able to last up to 20 days. Traveling back to Loth City and coming back to Rayde City definitely makes you spend as much as 20 days, it is not difficult to survive during that time. Even if Yorou and her 100 swordsmen start to lose, I will use the power of the headquarters in Rayde City as well".
Ren remained doubtful, according to him Myro did not need to take too big a risk so he tried to persuade again "But-lord".
Before Ren finished his words, Yorou who was at the side shook her head "Ren, you have to believe in master. Moreover, there are me and 100 of my disciples here, before we die, no one should touch master".
Myro nodded "In addition, I have no one else I can trust to do this task. Ren, I trust you. After all we are also prepared for the worst possible situation in Rayde City, I will do the plan we have prepared before".
After Ren hesitated for a while, he slightly bowed "Then, master and Yorou should take care of themselves!".
Ren who had thrown away his doubts immediately turned around and left the party venue. People thought Ren was just Myro's servant which made them not pay attention to his departure.
When Ren was gone and Myro threw away his worry because Loir was unconscious, a voice made Myro's face freeze "Sir Myro, why your strategist left, when the new event began. Does this party not suit your strategist or do you have other plans regarding Rayde City?".
Myro turned around to find Tarka who was smiling understandingly on her face. Seeing Tarka's smile, Myro knew it was likely that Tarka had already understood Myro's plan.
Breathing in, Myro asked Tarka "General Tarka, whose side are you on?".
"You think?" said Tarka without answering Myro's question unless he asked another question.
Myro and Tarka stared at each other for a few minutes, although they did not say anything, more or less Myro and Tarka understood what they should do now. At least, Myro knew Tarka was his ally, not the enemy.
"General Tarka, why are Carla and Loir doing all this? Do they not mind being defeated by Torte and remaining loyal to the Kingdom of Azeroth? When it is true that way, they are too loyal to the kingdom" Myro said with a smile.
"No way, I knew Carla and Loir long enough. Although they were not traitors, they were not so loyal to the Kingdom of Azeroth that they were ready to lose the title of Grand Duke to Torte without reason", he said", said Tarka looking at Carla who was in the distance with sharp eyes "If what I think is true, all of this must have something to do with the figure of Rilia who was invisible from earlier".
"Is it possible that Rilia was in the hands of the enemy and Herfu did not know about it?", asked Myro again.
"Most likely so" said Tarka nodding "If the old Herfu knows, he must have brought his entire army to raid the capital directly. Despite knowing it wouldn't win, the grumpy old Herfu didn't care. As long as there are people who dare to touch his family, even the king, he is ready to fight it. Carla and Loir must have known the nature of their father or grandfather, so they must have kept it a secret from Herfu".
Myro smiled slightly, Tarka was indeed very intelligent because he understood the outline of the situation only from a brief observation "Then, why did General Tarka still come despite knowing this party was a trap?".
"Then I will ask you the same question, why would you dare to come to this party? After all you are not as close to Grand Duke Rayde as I am, there is no point in helping them" Tarka said.
Myro looked at Tarka slightly before saying "The kingdom of Azeroth will change, I need strength to be the one to determine the change".
Hearing Myro's reply, Tarka's face froze for a while before laughing loudly "Very interesting! If you can win from this trap of Azeroth Kingdom, I will help you support future change, how?".
"Agree!", said Myro without hesitation, as long as he got Tarka's help then the possibility of Myro becoming king in the future will be even greater "But General Tarka must help me as well to defeat Grand Duke Rayde, the possibility of Myro becoming king in the future will be even greater "But General Tarka must help me too to defeat Grand Duke Rayde, the royal family and General Torte".
"I agree, isn't it great because we will soon be fighting the 3 terrifying forces in Azeroth Kingdom? Let me see firsthand how great the young heroes from the north of Azeroth Kingdom are" said Tarka who shook hands with Myro, their cooperation formed.
