THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 319: WHY DO YOU BELIEVE THEY WILL COME?
King Diamant I did not answer Ramond's question at all but sat quietly on his horse without saying a word, even Ramond who had known the Diamant King for a long time became very worried because he did not know whether the king was angry or sad right now.
Hesitating for a moment, Ramond tried to persuade again because King Diamant I did not give any answer "Your Majesty, I understand you must be angry that you must be considered defeated by the Duke of Victory by all nobles and royal officials. But I hope that his majesty will forget about his anger briefly for future victory, if we are late in retreating and cause our entire elite cavalry force to be killed here, the loss is too great! Therefore, your Majesty should inform the cavalry and General Ferta forces as soon as possible to withdraw".
King Diamant I slightly looked at Ramond before observing towards the battlefield again "I understand what you're saying, don't worry! I am not a fool who will continue to fight without any gain but a great loss, I am silent not because of anger due to defeat. More precisely, I must admit, the Duke of Victory is indeed not to be underestimated! Before retreating, I should speak to him once, I will ask the Victory Duke something!".
Without waiting for Ramond's reply, the Diamant King rushed off towards the battlefield with his horse and bodyguard "Ramond, tell the cavalry to immediately start preparing to retreat! I admit my defeat today! Once I'm done talking to the Victory Duke, we'll get out of here!".
Seeing the Diamant I King leaving without waiting for his opinion, Ramond was a little speechless. But Ramond was not at all surprised at the attitude of the Diamant King, when he admitted and was curious about someone, King Diamant I must have asked the person without hesitation even in the middle of the battlefield.
So Ramond was not surprised at King Diamant I who went to see Myro, but he informed the surrounding troops and prepared to retreat.
...----------------...
On the other side of the battlefield, Myro was in the vanguard of the troops along with Falka, Yorou, and Ren who continued to follow behind him. With 4 strong men following along as well as 50,000 Victory Troops that were elite troops, there was no problem with Myro's protection in the middle of the battlefield even though he was in the front row.
Myro slashed at the enemy in front of him before stopping as he heard the sound of drums and trumpets from the enemy's side "Did the enemy finally decide to retreat?".
Ren who was at the side sighed "Although we have a great chance of defeating King Diamant I today, but the loss on our side must be great which only gives an advantage to King Azeroth VI. Therefore, the retreat of the army of King Diamant I is a good thing for us".
Myro nodded in agreement to Ren's opinion, after all he had not planned to fight to the death against King Diamant I today.
The reason was not that Myro was afraid of King Diamant I or unable to do so, but that Myro found no advantage in killing King Diamant I. Instead, after killing King Diamant I, Myro would suffer heavy losses and King Azeroth VI could seize the opportunity to seize the Diamant Kingdom that lost their king.
When the Kingdom of Diamant had been captured, King Azeroth VI must have attacked the wounded Myro without giving him a chance to recuperate.
For that reason, killing King Diamant I was not an advantage but a loss. At least to the point that Myro's strength was strong enough to the point that there was no need to hesitate anymore to fight against the 2 kingdoms.
Since Falka was appointed as the main general, he led the Victory Army which was Myro's strongest force in this war. So Retya, the leader of the Victory Army, captained the Mongol Cavalry against the forces of King Diamant I.
"I understand, sir!", cried Falka agreeing "The whole army, follow me! Pursue the enemy and kill as many as possible, don't give them a chance to escape!".
"Get on!", shouted the troops behind Falka who rushed forward with him.
After the Victory Army advanced, the Mongol Cavalry on the left and right sides of the army and Herfu troops immediately followed.
Myro continued to advance with his troops, however they would continue to pursue the enemy until they arrived at the border, then returned to Victory Province.
But in the middle of the road, Myro had to stop his horse because he found a strange figure in the middle of the battlefield - a man with a golden crown was approaching Myro with his horse and bodyguard.
Myro was sure, the bodyguards around the young man were elite soldiers who had gone through many battlefields through their auras.
Without waiting for the person to introduce himself, Myro immediately knew that the figure that could wear the crown and guarded by this many elite troops in the Kingdom of Diamant was only 1 person, namely King Diamant I.
At first Myro thought that King Diamant I had already escaped considering that his army had started to flee, but who thought it turned out that King Diamant I had come near Myro.
Not only was Myro aware of the arrival of King Diamant I, the cavalry and Ferta were aware of their king's arrival so they stopped retreating and gathered around King Diamant I to protect him.
Under the protection of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, Ferta was confident that he could make King Diamant I escape if Myro suddenly attacked him.
After being 500 meters away, King Diamant I stopped moving forward, hundreds of soldiers gathered in front of him and raised their shields to protect King Diamant I from the arrow attacks.
Without caring about the guards around him, King Diamant I shouted "Myro, it seems that all the news is true that you are a talented person to the point of being given the title of Victory by my father at such a young age. You may find it strange why I came to see you in person so risky, however you might try to kill him. I just came here to ask 1 thing, you can answer it or not. Myro, why do you believe they're coming? Why are you sure help will arrive? After all, not everyone would dare to risk losing their lives just to repay their gratitude to the dead, how could you be so sure they would come to your aid? And if they don't come, you and your entire army will die here, aren't you worried?".
