THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 320: RETURN TO VICTORY PROVINCE
"You ask me why I believe help is coming?" said Myro, who stopped his horse and looked at King Diamant I.
Currently the troops on the 2 sides kept each other a distance of hundreds of meters, without a decision from Myro or King Diamant I then they would not move.
Myro who was observing King Diamant I said with a confident face "King Diamant I, how do you think to become a king?".
Seeing that Myro did not answer the question, King Diamant I was not angry but answered directly "Isn't it clear? Whoever has the strongest power will be king! As long as you have the strength so strong that no one can resist you, no one will betray or rebel. Are we not at war to determine who is the most powerful so that we can be the king of the whole kingdom?".
Myro was not surprised at the reply of the Diamant I King considering that he was famous for being cruel "Then, why did the people from your kingdom come to help me? Even if you have the power to kill them, but they still come here against you. Didn't you say that power is useful so that no one would dare to resist the king?".
"Because of your existence so they dare to resist" said the Diamant King I "Your existence here makes them see the possibility of defeating me. If my strength is strong enough to be able to destroy you directly, I'm sure they would not dare to fight back".
"You are wrong!", Myro said firmly "Maybe it was 1 of the many reasons they came here, but the main reason hundreds of thousands of soldiers General Kelrun came here was to repay General Kelrun's kindness! Let me give you 1 piece of advice, humans have their own decisions! You think as long as you have great power, the residents don't dare to fight you? If you think like that, your Diamant Kingdom will not last long!".
"No matter how strong the military power you have, when the entire population joins forces to rebel, you will eventually end up losing! It's not even strange that your soldiers are traitors, after all they have families that come from the residents! I believe General Kelrun's relief force will come because I understand, a favor will bring another good! Before he died, General Kelrun had helped countless people and finally, when he died, the people he had helped came to repay his kindness".
"Hundreds of thousands of people here came not because of money, not because they were afraid of the power of General Kelrun, but they came only to repay Kelrun's kindness while still alive. That's the reason why I believe help will come, I understand they must come to repay General Kelrun's kindness".
Hearing Myro's explanation, King Diamant I was increasingly confused about the meaning of Myro's words.
But suddenly King Diamant I remembered Lana's words before they became enemies, the reason Lana chose Myro as king was that Myro understood the human heart.
At first, King Diamant I did not understand Lana's intentions, why should a king understand the human heart? Is it by understanding the king man that one can win the battlefield? Without winning at war, how does one succeed in becoming king?
But after facing off against Myro, he finally understood what Lana said.
King Diamant I immediately laughed out loud which made the people around him shocked "I understand now, so this is what you mean, understanding the human heart is indeed very frightening. Myro, I now understand why you're so sure help is coming, you've understood from the beginning the feelings of retirees and people who have been helped by Kelrun so you believe they must have come here. I lose! I admit I lost the fight this time".
Although Myro didn't really understand why King Diamant I was laughing, a smile still appeared on Myro's face "Then I think we can cross the border and return to Azeroth Kingdom now right?".
The Diamant King slowly stopped laughing before nodding in agreement "I will retreat as well, however further warfare will be useless but only in my brother's favor. Myro, no, Duke of Victory! In the next battle, I will not lose! Let's retreat!".
King Diamant I turned around which was followed by his entire army, they were ready to leave from here.
Ferta was a little surprised to hear the words of King Diamant I earlier, because he finally called Myro as the Duke of Victory which means King Diamant I considers Myro as his opponent.
Even when referring to King Azeroth VI, King Diamant I often referred to him as his younger brother, not King Azeroth VI which suggests he did not recognize King Azeroth VI as his opponent.
But Myro who had power under the Kingdom of Azeroth received the recognition of King Diamant I, so he stopped calling Myro's name but referred to him as the Duke of Victory.
Ferta observed Myro for a while and finally left with King Diamant I.
Falka planned to chase after the enemy, but Myro raised his hand to stop Falka "Don't be chased, let them go! The war is over, if we try to continue to pursue and kill their troops, King Diamant I will definitely decide to fight against us to the death considering he is a cruel and irritable person!".
Hearing what Myro said, Falka stopped chasing and continued to stand silently waiting for Myro's next decision.
Hearing Myro's decision, the soldiers began to move towards the Victory Province.
Myro planned to talk to representatives of the Kellerun relief force, but after thinking that they were still in the Diamant Kingdom, he said, Myro decided to discuss with them when he arrived in Victory Province so as not to be chased by the enemy anymore.
Kelrun's help seemed to understand Myro's purpose, so they did not say much and followed Myro's forces towards Victory Province.
After all since they had decided against King Diamant I, they were ready to leave the Diamant Kingdom.
Before leaving, Myro stared at the place where King Diamant I's army had gone.
Myro was able to win this time because the Diamant King was still underestimating Myro, he did not use his full strength because he thought he could defeat Myro using some of his strength.
But as they fight back in the future, Myro believes the Diamant King will be more careful, even bringing all the troops and strength he has to defeat Myro.
Therefore, when Myro and King Diamant I meet again, it is most likely that time it will be the decisive battle of the king who rules over the entire Kingdom of Azeroth and the Kingdom of Diamant.
Without wasting any time, Myro and his army left the Diamant Kingdom.
A few days later, the news of Myro's victory and his army's return to the north of Azeroth Kingdom made the whole kingdom tremble again.
At first many people did not believe it, but when they found an accurate account of the outcome of the war, they had no choice but to believe that Myro won and managed to take Kelrun's corpse away from the Diamant Kingdom.
In addition they received information Myro experienced a great victory in this war.
During the battle of Myro against King Diamant I, Myro lost 20,000 soldiers, most of them new soldiers, as well as soldiers with assistance from Kellerun.
While King Diamant I lost 50,000 soldiers who were almost all elite cavalry.
50,000 elite cavalry and 20,000 new troops and soldiers who have long stopped fighting, anyone can find out who the victors and losers of this war are only through that information.
In the past the name of the Duke of Victory was well known, but his power was not considered as well as that of King Diamant I and King Azeroth VI.
At most, the people considered Myro to have the equivalent strength of the War Duke, Grand Duke Rayde as well as other powerful nobles.
But after the results of Myro's war against the Diamant Kingdom appeared, everyone changed their judgment towards Myro.
Not only that, some people consider Myro as a candidate for the new king, equivalent to King Azeroth VI and King Diamant I.
Not only did the nobles and officials know of Myro's victory, a few weeks later the story of Myro's fight against the Diamant Kingdom spread to the entire population of the 2 kingdoms.
However Myro's battle against the Diamant Kingdom was a major event that could not be hidden, therefore both the officials, nobles and residents of the 2 kingdoms began to change their judgment of the Victory Duke.
