THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 287: MAJOR CHANGES IN THE KINGDOM OF AZEROTH
Myro who was making preparations for his departure towards the northern mountains had to stop his actions because the knocking sound on the door was heard.
"Master, I brought important news from Azeroth Kingdom!", Ren's voice sounded from behind the door.
Myro stood up from his chair and opened the door to find Ren who had a stern face, Myro knew something big must have happened to the point of making Ren very cautious like this "What's wrong? Did another problem occur in Tanrou Province?".
Ren shook his head "Master, the news this time is not from Tanrou Province, but rather the latest news emerged from the Royal Capital of Azeroth! King Azeroth V breathed his last this morning, and the 10th prince was immediately appointed as the new king, King Azeroth VI with the voice of support from the prime minister, 10 Ministers and 3 chief generals of the Royal Capital of Azeroth! Almost all the high officials of the capital gave their support to the 10th prince, he should have ascended the throne today before the 7th lord or prince was ready to give any resistance".
Although Myro was ready for the death of King Azeroth V, he was still shocked to hear the news. After all the death of King Azeroth V was much faster than what Myro had thought, fortunately he had already finished seizing the Orc-Goblin Kingdom, if Myro is still at war then he must first retreat from fighting King Albert.
While the 10th prince who ascended the throne became King Azeroth V, Myro was not at all surprised. He had 2 important people who became spies in the capital, Katia as a trader and Lapter who sat in the position of 10 ministers as Minister of Law, which is also known as the Minister of Law, so from the very beginning Myro had learned of the plan of King Azeroth V who chose the 10th prince to be his successor.
"How are Lapter and Katia doing there? Did they run into trouble after the ascension of the new king?", Myro asked ascertaining the circumstances, the king's death must have brought a great change to the entire Kingdom of Azeroth. Even Myro could see the approaching storm, as long as he was not careful, Myro might be killed by it.
Ren replied as quickly as possible "Lapter acted as you said from the beginning, supporting the 10th prince to be king so that no one would suspect him. If nothing happened, Lapter should still be appointed Minister of Law and Court by King Azeroth VI. Katia's problem also need not be thought about, I heard some news about Katia from Lapter, it seems Katia has a pretty close relationship with King Azeroth VI. Although I am not clear about their relationship, based on what Lapter said, at least King Azeroth VI considered Katia like a confidant like 10 ministers and 3 generals".
Myro nodded "Since there is no problem whatsoever towards them, we do not need to worry about the state of Katia and Lapter! Ren, tell Retya and the others, we're going back to Loth City! All the problems in Tanrou Province, I will hand them over to Muteki, we must prepare for the change of circumstances in Azeroth Kingdom due to the death of King Azeroth V so that we must return first".
"In addition, send a message to Feld to prepare a letter to the kingdom telling me that I, the Victory Count, feel sad because of the departure of King Azeroth V-Wait a minute, I am now the Victory Duke, I am now the Victory Duke, announce also the decree of King Azeroth V before his death concerning appointing me Duke".
"Well, sir!", replied Ren who left as quickly as possible.
Ever since Myro decided to return to Loth City, Ren understood that Myro had canceled his trip to the northern mountains.
More precisely Ren did plan to suggest that Myro cancel going to the northern mountains. However King Azeroth V had ceased to exist, they had to rush towards the Victory Province in order to be ready for the changes that had occurred from the king's death.
Seeing Ren leaving, Myro walked towards the window of his room before gazing at the Tanrou Provincial Capital filled with residents of "King Azeroth VI? Let's see if you can maintain your kingly position! Although there are prime ministers, 10 ministers, 3 generals, 3 divisions, and hundreds of thousands of elite troops helping you, I am sure the other princes will not sit idly by! Especially the 1st prince who considers himself the crown prince, the 2nd prince and the 7th prince, they will be your greatest enemy to sit in the position of the real king".
Myro smiled, thinking he didn't need to act now. Myro was sure that in a moment, the 1st or 2nd prince must have acted, especially the 1st prince who was notoriously arrogant and considered the throne to be his.
The 1st Prince who always felt himself a king must have burst into rage when he found out his father had appointed the 10th prince to become King Azeroth VI, a war was bound to happen.
Not to mention the 1st prince mother came from the War Duke family in the Southern kingdom.
Although the War Duke is not a Grand Duke, but do not forget that not all nobles have special titles. Grand Duke Rayde did not even have a special title that belonged to them alone, such as the title Victory in the title of Myro nobility.
Therefore, the War Duke was a special noble who was given a unique title by the king namely War.
When Myro was given the title of Victory because he had never lost in every war, then the Duke of War is a figure who passed through many wars to be given the title War.
Although he was not like Myro who always managed to win, but in terms of the number of wars he went through and experience, the War Duke was far above Myro.
Therefore, the War Duke's ability and his influence in the Kingdom of Azeroth should not be underestimated at all.
Maybe he only holds the title of Duke, but people consider himself not inferior to the Grand Duke though.
A smile appeared on the faces of Myro "Prince 1 and King Azeroth VI, I wonder who will win and lose later? However I must also be careful, especially towards the 7th prince! If I take the enemy for granted, one day the 7th prince might attack me all of a sudden".
Upon hearing the news of King Azeroth V's death, Myro brought his army back to Loth City.
On the other hand, the news of Myro seizing the Orc-Goblin Kingdom and forming Tanrou Province spread.
At first King Azeroth VI tried to take over the newly captured territory of Myro, after all the territory captured by the general or royal nobility belonged to the king.
But Feld in the City of Loth revealed the decree of King Azeroth V who appointed Myro as the Duke of Victory and gave all the territories of the Orc-Goblin Kingdom that were captured, so the Tanrou Province was Myro's.
