THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 57: GIVING GIFTS
Hearing the report from their representative who spoke with the enemy's crown prince, the 4th prince was slightly incredulous "You mean the crown prince of the Cavalry Kingdom declared himself King of Cavalry III and decided to fight us to the end? Is that really what he said?".
Firhel who had previously left as a representative nodded "That's right the prince, the part of the crown prince who has claimed himself as King Cavalry III said that we must give back the territory we have seized and pay compensation of 1000 gold coins, that way then they can release our assault problem. But if we refuse to pay compensation and restore the territory of the Cavalry Kingdom, he says it will make us regret".
Myro who on the other hand actually could not help but clap his hands in his mind, he never thought there was such a foolish person.
Whether the victor or the loser was already clearly visible in this war, the troops in the Royal Capital of the Cavalry were at most only 1000 people, such a large army was unlikely to be able to survive their troops.
Although aided by the city walls though, they still could not fight the 4th prince.
But the person who claimed to be King Cavalry III still dared to fight them, even demanding compensation. Myro had never met anyone this stupid, had it not been for the 4th prince and the other higher-ups here then Myro might have clapped his hands for the stupidity of King Cavalry III.
The other higher-ups were speechless, they were also like Myro that they were surprised that the crown prince of the Cavalry Kingdom would be so foolish as to fight them to the end.
The 4th Prince hit the table hard, he shouted grimly "Because he chose to fight us, he must be ready to accept the consequences of the stupidity of his entire army. Tell the whole army to prepare, we will make a final battle to take the Cavalry Kingdom. In addition, deliver my message to the entire army, whoever captures or kills King Cavalry III and brings the proof to me, then I will reward him with 10 gold coins!".
Everyone's eyes shone hearing that, however 10 gold coins was not a small amount.
Even the child of a Marquis like Luin or the Serpent who was the leader of the 10,000 elite troops of Azeroth Kingdom was still very interested in these 10 gold coins, their eyes shining with gusto.
"Alright prince!", said the soldier who immediately went to inform the 4th prince's decision.
The 4th prince looked at the higher-ups who had these shining eyes, he slightly smiled "The higher-ups can also get them, what is most important is the one who captured King Cavalry III. No matter if he was a superior or not, the one who managed to do so would get a reward of 10 gold coins from me! Therefore, you can also try to get it".
After gaining the 4th prince's decisiveness that the higher-ups could get the reward, they left this tent excitedly. More precisely they are preparing their best soldiers to capture King Cavalry III so as not to be captured by others first.
Myro who had just left the tent could not help but say "Falka, can you capture King Cavalry III?".
Falka who followed behind Myro with Ren smiled confidently, she said without the slightest hesitation "Master need not worry, either, Falka must have captured King Cavalry III earlier than the others in order for the lord to get the money".
Myro nodded, knowing that when he became a noble, money was very important. It was at least not wrong to have more money, therefore Myro was determined to let Falka get this money "Falka, you can use the Mongol Cavalry to do the task this time. Besides, if it works then I will give you 5 gold coins which is half of the prize".
Hearing that Myro was planning to split half his prize, Falka shook her head to reject "Master, I don't need any money-".
Seeing that Myro had already decided firmly, Falka could only nod "I understand master, me and the Mongol Cavalry must have tried their hardest to accomplish this task in order not to disappoint master".
Myro didn't say much anymore, they walked back to his tent.
During this time on the battlefield, Myro began to realize how important it was to reward his hard-working followers.
The followers from the World are indeed loyal to Myro, but if Myro gives them a gift then they must be more eager to work for Myro. This made Myro decide to start giving gifts to his followers who had worked hard.
Actually Myro also had to reward Ren because Ren was the one who worked the most in this war until Myro got the recognition from the 4th prince.
The problem is that Ren's actions help him too much so that Myro is confused about what kind of gift to Ren.
If Myro gives money then the hard work Ren has been too big, 20 or 30 gold coins is the most suitable gift for Ren's hard work so far, he said, even a rich master could give Ren more than that for his hard work.
But Myro did not have that much money, while giving Ren territory or office then Myro was not yet a noble so he could not give any office.
Therefore, Myro could only reward Ren for his hard work when he had already become richer or noble.
Ren who followed behind Myro slightly smiled, he understood what Myro was thinking when giving a gift to Falka and the Mongol Cavalry if they managed to capture King Cavalry III.
In fact Ren did not need any gifts, but in the future not all Myro followers came from the World.
At least the greater the title of nobility or the position of Myro, the more troops and employees that Myro needs to manage his territory. This certainly makes many Myro followers in the future not from the world.
Followers who do not come from the world certainly need gifts and money to keep them faithful, however they have a family that they must take care of so that the existence of money and gifts is needed to maintain their loyalty.
No matter how loyal a person is, if the master they follow starves them with their family, the loyalty of that person inevitably decreases except for the troops of the World.
So Ren was a little pleased with the development of Myro who was beginning to understand this, it seemed that following the 4th prince's war was very useful to shape Myro's thinking to become a great leader in the future.
At least the figure of Myro now no longer looks like a 10-year-old when he was in Aras City.
