THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 299: THE ACT OF KELRUN DURING LIFE!
With the decision of King Azeroth VI who refused to attack the City of Bern, many people were disappointed with the decisiveness he had.
Despite that, the nobles and officials of the Azeroth Kingdom did not dare to say anything. Moreover, they can certainly see how much the risk of attacking the City of Bern, King Azeroth VI who is facing rebellion from many sides has not been able to fight King Diamant I.
At least until the War Duke and eldest prince were defeated, King Azeroth VI could not act recklessly.
Moreover, some time this was heard from the War Duke who got some help from the surrounding nobles, he managed to gather 300,000 troops to make the 2nd division and 100,000 additional troops difficult.
Although the 2nd Division was famous for their abilities and prowess on the battlefield, the War Duke was also not an indiscriminate person.
He managed to get the nickname War from King Azeroth V after going through many wars, therefore his ability on the battlefield is not in doubt at all.
The War Duke was indeed old enough, but at least he still remained healthy to lead his army directly.
With the War Duke taking the lead directly, the 2nd Division actually made a fuss by them.
King Azeroth VI, who received the news, decided to immediately withdraw the 3rd division from the border of the northern region of Myro and let them help the 2nd division.
However he got word Myro was holding an alliance meeting in the north, so he did not have to worry that Myro would suddenly attack Azeroth Kingdom.
With the joining of the 3rd division, the war duke was again beaten back to hide in Golath City which was the center of the War Duke's power.
...----------------...
Unlike the Azeroth Kingdom and the Diamant Kingdom which became chaotic as a result of the war, the northern region of the Azeroth Kingdom was quite peaceful as they were far from the war zone.
While King Azeroth VI and King Diamant I did not dare to attack the northern region recklessly, rather they were cautious of Grand Duke Rayde and the Victory Duke.
Currently the Diamant Kingdom and Azeroth Kingdom were fighting each other, they did not dare to add any new enemies anymore.
The city of Loth which became the Capital of Victory Province as well as the center of the power of the Victory Duke was being filled with many people right now.
The reason was none other than the invitation of the Duke of Victory to all the higher-ups and the great nobles in the northern region of Azeroth Kingdom, even Grand Duke Rayde came to the meeting held by the Duke of Victory, who was also a member of the victorious Duke, how could other nobles dare to refuse?
Although neither Myro nor Loir were kings, as long as they cooperated, they could be considered kings in the north of Azeroth Kingdom.
Moreover, the rule of Myro and Loir in the north was too frightening, when they joined forces, all the nobles and higher-ups in the north of the kingdom were not their opponents at all.
For that reason, no one dared to refuse Myro's invitation unless Loir did not come to the alliance meeting.
The arrival of the higher-ups and the great nobles in the north made the entire Loth City crowded. Fortunately, Loth City had been continuously developing since it was under Myro's rule, so all the guests who came could get a place to stay in the city.
Myro was in the workspace of his villa. As a Duke ranked noble, he did not need to manage the Victory Province directly but rather Feld who would help him. If Feld encountered a problem that he was unable to solve on his own, then Myro just acted.
Almost all of the summoned higher-ups from the World were in the room, except for those who were not in Loth City like Muteki who was busy managing Tanrou Province as well as a few others.
In front of Myro, there was a member of the headquarters who became the center of everyone's attention.
The members of this headquarters broke out in a slight cold sweat as the pressure of everyone in the room was too intense, not to mention that all of these terrifying people were staring at him.
Despite the intense pressure, the headquarters member took a breath before continuing to read out the report document in his hand "Master, according to the information gathered by the headquarters, General Kelrun was a good person all his life. He received only a fraction of his salary as a general for the life of himself and his family, while the other money he gave to his soldiers who had to retire due to heavy injuries on the battlefield, the families of the dead soldiers, or the poor in the western cities of the Azeroth Kingdom".
"Everyone knows that among all the generals, only General Kelrun lives in a small house in Fargan City with his family. Whereas other border generals, even though they have a smaller salary than capital generals like Limo, but they still receive a large salary every month, no problem buying a villa".
"Therefore, a great many inhabitants and warriors in the west of the Azeroth Kingdom used to honor Kelrun. Perhaps Kelrun's figure was not particularly well known in the royal capital, but he was nicknamed a hero by the inhabitants of the western Kingdom of Azeroth".
Myro must admit Kelrun was really good during his life.
As is known, troops who are heavily injured on the battlefield such as losing legs, hands or other injuries that make their fighting ability almost disappear must be retired from the battlefield.
The problem was that after they retired, these soldiers did not receive any more monthly salaries.
At most they are only given a pension that is not necessarily enough for their feeding needs to die, not to mention retired soldiers may have families.
Myro who understood the matter always gave the injured retirement troops for the victory of Myro or the dead troops a great reward to them or their families, like land and money so that they may live.
But not everyone was as good as Myro, Azeroth Kingdom only gave 1 gold coin as a retirement fee to the soldiers.
Though 1 gold coin is not necessarily enough for the cost of 5 people's family food for 1 month, retired soldiers and their families will not be able to survive with just 1 gold coin that makes retired soldier families often experience hunger, poverty to death due to hunger.
Kelrun who cares about it always gives some of his salary to help retired soldiers who are struggling financially, even though he himself does not live a luxurious life.
Myro must admit, Kelrun was not only a great general on the battlefield, he was also kind to people.
If asked what a hero is, Myro may be difficult to answer because everyone's opinion of heroes is different.
But if someone asks Myro, does Kelrun deserve to be called a hero? Myro must admit, Kelrun has the right.
During his life, Kelrun trained many warriors for the Kingdom of Azeroth, he was loyal to the kingdom.
Before his death, Kelrun did not retreat but continued to guard the western borders of the kingdom for at least 10 years. At the same time, he often helped the financial problems of retired soldiers and the poor.
Of all the people Myro had seen so far, the most suitable Kelrun was called a hero to the Kingdom of Azeroth.
