Early in the morning, King Dierez held an impromptu meeting with the ministers. The atmosphere in the palace hall looked extremely gripping, especially when everyone saw how their king's face looked when entering the palace hall. Everyone immediately lowered their heads, for fear of getting into stray trouble due to the bad mood of king Dierez.
Normally if it were like this, the prime minister Aeolus would be their savior. Unfortunately, the person who has always been their hero, almost a week of his existence is unknown. The prime minister is said to be taking a long trip to carry out King Dierez's orders.
" Does anyone know what happened? " The new agriculture minister whispered after the previous minister was arrested for having been one of the people causing trouble in the region.
" I don't know.. But seeing how noble his countenance looked, it seemed like a serious matter. " The trade minister replied in a whisper.
" You shut up!! If you start to hear you whispering, we could all get in trouble. " The finance minister who stood not far from these two ministers rebuked. It could be bad if this early they had already served the punishment of their king.
King Dierez has been silent and staring at each of his ministers without doing anything or giving any orders. Just silently staring with a gaze full of anger that is actually ready to spew out either on anyone who has not as much luck as others.
His eyes were sharp, aiming at anyone who was in front of him without exception. Like an eagle hunting its prey and ready to pounce. It made anyone who saw the eyes of King Dierez feel a great fear.
" His Majesty... What brings you to gather us all here? " The Minister of Defense who had known King Dierez for a long time dared to ask.
But it seems his decision to ask will he regret for the rest of his life when he now gets a sharp delicacy from king Dierez. The Minister of Defense even had trouble swallowing his own saliva because they were suffocated with sharp delicacies from king Dierez. He looked down to cut off eye contact between them.
" I'll travel out of the palace for a few days. Make sure everything goes well during my departure!! You know what the word fluent means I mean? " Everyone was taken aback by the statement their king had just said.
" His Majesty... " Defense minister's remarks had to stop when king Dierez loudly uttered a sacred sentence that was always successful to make anyone whisper in horror.
" Just do it and don't ask too many questions. If until I find you guys making trouble during my departure, then you guys will become Lorian's playmates.. " The words of king Dierez with his charming smile adorned his cold face.
A charming smile that actually has another meaning for those who already know what kind of lunge from their king who sometimes very magical behavior. And Lorian's name, indeed, had always been a scourge for anyone who had ever seen, how terrifying the owner of that name was.
" Philian.. As long as I am gone, you will be the ultimate possessor of power in this place. Make good use of it, and don't disappoint me. " King Dierez appointed the minister of Defense as the highest holder of power as long as he was not in the palace.
" I will carry out this task to the best of my ability, Your Majesty. " Filian fell to his knees accepting the duty of his king. Followed by all the ministers and the people who were in the room.
The decision to entrust everything to the Minister of Defense was not decided arbitrarily by King Dierez. Apart from their close relationship since King Dierez was still a war general. The ability of the Minister of Defense itself is worth exploring.
His way of strategizing and broadening his horizons made him the best candidate to represent King Dierez if the king and prime minister did not dare to be in the palace as they are today. All of the ministers and the higher-ups of the kingdom would also not reject what their king had decided other than that the Minister of Defense was worthy of it, they also avoided meeting with Lorian, as well, the lion of King Dierez.

" Why are you so insistent on coming with me to the region? Will, your guts are very suspicious. " Ask the king of Dierez who reached his limits to face the royal adviser who whined to go along with the king of Dierez.
" I want to go home, your Majesty. I haven't even returned to the origin alone for more than five years. " William answered that was the truth.
" gr.. If you leave, who will help Fillian while I'm gone? " King Dierez was eager to curse William if he did not remember if he was now an old man.
" I'm sure Mr. Fillian will be assisted by other ministers. I don't have a real job here. I'm like eating a blind paycheck because you never listen to my words. " William was half complaining and complaining.
King Dierez glared sharply upon hearing how his advisors were complaining. Because honestly, that's how it happened. In fact, William did not really carry out his duties as a royal advisor. The existence of William in this place is purely because the king of Dierez who does not want if the position of king's advisor is empty and filled with people who do not like him.
The reasons are very beyond reason and this could be the king Dierez who did it. If only the previous kings had acted as recklessly as King Dierez, they would have been banished by the former prime minister who was actually the pinnacle of real power in this kingdom.
" You're old.. What are you going to do there? Better here, eat and sleep comfortably. " William was not pleased with his king's words.
" gr.. Don't pout like a woman, Will.. Remember how old you are!! " King Dierez shuddered in horror at William's behavior.
" I want to go with you to the area. With or without your consent. " William left just like that, ignoring the cries of King Dierez who kept calling him to return.
Foolish with the decision of king Dierez, for William he had the task of forcing him to still have to follow the king Dierez went to the region where the prime minister was located and was reported to be seriously ill. This is what caused King Dierez to have to see the condition of the prime minister in that place, by leaving his throne.
