THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 300: I HAVE DECIDED!
Hearing the soldier's report from the headquarters, everyone who was in Myro's study sighed.
Especially those who were warriors like Falka, Aclan and the others. They have to admit, Kelrun was really a good general. But he was their enemy so Myro certainly would not help Kelrun, therefore they did not regret the death of Kelrun even though he was a good man.
However, if Kelrun continued to live, he would have sided with King Azeroth VI, which would have meant an enemy of Myro in the future. Helping Kelrun only strengthened King Azeroth VI, so they only felt sad for the death of a good general, but no one felt regret.
Ren opened his folding fan before saying "Kelrun's death is good news for us, at least we should do nothing and sit quietly watching the growing hostility of King Diamant I and King Azeroth VI. At first they were hostile, but they were brothers and sisters in the past so there was a possibility that they might work together against us".
"But since the assassination of General Kelrun, the hostility of the 2 kings will make it impossible for them to cooperate again. Not only that, Kellrun's death gave the lord an opportunity to make an alliance. Tomorrow, an alliance meeting will be held, many people are disappointed at the decision of King Azeroth VI. As long as we make good use of those disappointments, we can form a strong alliance! Let the 2 kings fight each other and then get hurt, while we form an alliance to become stronger in order to defeat them".
Everyone nodded towards Ren's words, they felt that what was said just now was not wrong at all.
Kelrun's death was not a loss to them, but rather a great benefit to Myro and the others.
Now that the 2 kings were hostile to each other due to Kellrun's death, if Myro made the best use of the opportunity, he could strengthen his power against the 2 kings.
Although everyone acknowledged his plan, Ren did not become happy but his face turned even more cautious as he found Myro not smiling or nodding from earlier but just staring intently at the window of the study.
When everyone else agreed to Ren's idea, Myro spoke up "Ren, what do you think we should do about General Kelrun's corpse in Bern City?".
Ren was shocked at Myro's sudden question. Based on what Ren knew, Myro should have known about what they had to do with Kelrun's corpse. At least Myro has been practicing intelligence and strategy skills for several years, he should understand how to best utilize Kelrun's corpse in Bern City.
He soon realizes something, Ren begins to understand Myro asking him not because Myro does not understand what to do next but rather Myro has other plans.
Despite not knowing the exact plan of Myro, Ren only said the best plan according to what he thought "Master, it is better to let the corpse of General Kelrun remain in Bern City! The longer the corpse was in Bern, the more people lost faith in King Azeroth VI, meaning it would weaken without the support of his followers. King Azeroth VI who lost his support must have realized the reason for this because of the actions of King Diamant I who continued to hang the corpse of General Kelrun, so their enmity will continue to strengthen in our favor! If necessary, let them fight to the point of being heavily injured so that we can take advantage of the opportunity and master the 2 kingdoms using 1 move".
Myro did not nod in agreement, he asked Ren again which shocked everyone "What if we take General Kelrun's corpse away from Bern City?".
Ren opened his eyes wide full of disbelief, he began to understand what Myro was thinking.
"If you win though, sir, the Lord will not receive any profit but the Diamant King will be hostile to the lord and the grudge between the Kingdom of Azeroth and the Kingdom of Diamant will be reduced due to the loss of the cause of enmity that is the corpse of the hanged General Kelrun! If you do not carry the body of General Kelrun, the people will not blame you for Kelrun being unfaithful to you. Everyone only blames King Azeroth VI because Kellrun is loyal to him, not the lord! For all these reasons, the best option for you is to sit quietly without caring about General Kelrun's corpse".
"As long as master tries to bring Kelrun's corpse, there are only losses. On the other hand, if you just sit and watch, you can receive a huge profit! I know that General Kelrun was a good man before he died, a good man like himself should not be hanged like a rebel. But I hope master will think again before acting, don't act because of the fleeting feeling that can give the master a huge loss without any gain!".
Ren immediately knelt down which showed his determination to stop Myro.
Falka stepped forward and knelt down "Master, this time I agree with Miss Ren! Although General Kelrun is a good general, but he is not a follower of the master, there is no point in bringing the corpse of General Kelrun away from Bern which only harms us! I hope you think about it again!".
Feld hurried to his knees "Master, I agree with Miss Ren and General Falka, I hope that you do not act just because of a momentary impulse of concern for the fate of General Kelrun! Master should think about his profit and loss as well!".
Slowly everyone began to kneel down for Myro to stop his plan to attack Bern City.
As Ren had said, attacking Bern City and carrying Kelrun's corpse would not give them an advantage. On the contrary, Myro would suffer a great loss if he did so.
The problem was that Myro was their leader, as long as Myro decided then as followers of Myro, they had to follow what he said.
Therefore, before Myro decided, they had to make Myro change his mind first.
Myro looked at everyone in this room who was kneeling down so that he would not attack Bern City.
Standing up from his chair, Myro said "Ren, I must admit, you are a great strategist! What you say may be true, I will not take any advantage if I attack the City of Bern but we will take a great loss from the action. I'm grateful to all of you who thought about me, but-".
At first everyone thought Myro had changed his mind and did not plan on going to carry Kelrun's corpse, but everyone's faces froze when Myro said but.
Especially Ren, he felt a bad feeling regarding what Myro was going to say next.
