The crowd turned around and saw a young man dressed in all-black entering with a determined and solemn expression.His very presence emitted a commanding aura that even those experienced on the battlefield, like Everett and Shane, adopted a serious demeanor.

"Logan Rhys?" Austin's declaration engulfed the scene with silence. Once upon a time, the Rhys family's Kirin was renowned throughout the world. However, he had disappeared ever since the turmoil in Aylka ten years ago. There had been no news of him since. Now, with his name suddenly brought up, everyone was astonished. "Your Highness, is this a joke? His Highness, Prince Logan, is still missing. No one knows where he is. It's utter nonsense to suggest him as the next Grand Marshal of West Lucozia!" Everett shrugged."That right, Your Highness. Let's be practical. It's better to rely on Grand General Rhys instead of pinning our hopes on Prince Logan," Shane chimed in.They had thought Austin was referring to himself, but he brought up someone who had been missing for ten years instead. It sounded like utter gibberish!"With Father's demise, Logan will definitely return. It would be perfectly reasonable for him to take up the position of Grand Marshal then!" Austin declared c

"Uncle Julius has harbored ambitions for years, lying low and waiting for the right moment. "With Father's sudden demise, he'll undoubtedly seize this opportunity to consolidate his power. This matter is far from over," Austin stated with a grave expression."You're absolutely right. Even if they yielded publicly, they'll resort to cunning schemes. We're likely to face numerous challenges ahead," Eloise sighed.If Rufus had not met such an abrupt end, these individuals wouldn't have dared to act so brazenly."If only Logan were here," Austin lamented."Austin, your abilities are no less than Logan's. I believe you can achieve what he accomplished as well," Eloise encouraged."Mom, I'm aware of my abilities. In many aspects, I still fall short compared to Logan." Austin shook his head."Don't underestimate yourself!"Eloise's voice turned serious. "Your father has passed away. After the funeral, I'll immediately report to the royal family for your ascension to the throne. "Yo

Meanwhile, at the castle gates, Julius and his entourage were walking out in haste. After they left the castle, Everett spoke up, "Grand General Rhys, Eloise, and her son are truly ungrateful. Are we simply going to let this matter slide?""Of course not, but we can't act too overtly either. Most commanders of the Black Dragon Army are loyal to the monarchy. "It won't be advantageous for us to start a conflict," Julius replied, his eyes narrowing. "Then, what should we do?" Everett asked again. "Since we can't make a move openly, we'll apply pressure on them discreetly."Julius stated meaningfully, "Once turmoil erupts in West Lucozia, and the monarchy faces imminent danger, they'll naturally realize who's the true pillar of support for the monarchy!" "I understand! I'll arrange for people to stir up trouble immediately. When the people's grievances peak and the monarchy can't manage, you'll emerge as their savior. "At that moment, West Lucozia's citizens will be grateful

That was the only way for the officials to maintain their current positions. Presently, the only person most qualified, capable, and powerful enough to succeed the Prince of West Lucozia was the Grand General of the Iron Stallion Cavalry, Julius Rhys.Firstly, being a Rhys, Julius was a legitimate member of the royal family, making his claim for the throne unquestionable. Secondly, as the Grand General of the Iron Stallion Cavalry, Julius commanded half of West Lucozia's military forces, wielding significant power.Thirdly, with years of accumulated strength, Julius possessed ample influence, prestige, and accomplishments to ascend to the throne.It wasn't an exaggeration to claim that everyone expected Julius to succeed Rufus. Right after offering their condolences, many officials rushed to the Grand General's residence to pledge their loyalty. These actions naturally didn't escape the monarchy's attention, but Eloise was in no state of mind to concern herself with such mat

"Logan?" Austin was stunned as he watched the man remove his mask, then his eyes lit up with joy.The man who infiltrated the castle was no stranger. It was Dustin, dressed in a guard's attire. "Austin, you've truly come far on your own. You can handle matters independently now," Dustin praised, a glint of pride in his eyes as he observed his step-brother.Having overheard Austin and Eloise's entire conversation, Dustin appreciated Austin's trust in him. He acknowledged Eloise's concerns as well. Throughout history, it wasn't uncommon for siblings and family members to vie for power. Eloise's protective instincts for her child were entirely justified."Logan, when did you return?" Austin asked. "Just two days ago," Dustin replied. "Do you already know what happened to Father?" Austin's voice trembled slightly.Dustin glanced at his father's picture near his coffin and nodded in silence. The last time they had met was back in Swinton a year ago. Little did they know that

"I really can't do it! Logan, the throne belongs to you!" Austin was growing anxious. "Alright, that's enough. We'll talk about this later. With so much trouble we're facing, our immediate priority is to resolve all these issues." Dustin changed the subject."Logan, as long as you take charge and stabilize the situation, I will assist you wholeheartedly!" Austin said with utmost sincerity."I can't show myself yet." Dustin shook his head and explained, "Julius and his group are still unaware of my return, so they are not on high alert. I can react in time if they harbor any ill intentions. "Not to mention, the remnants of the Dragon Guard are still lurking in the shadows. I need to find an opportunity to eliminate them all!" "I see."Austin quickly grasped the situation and said, "I understand. I will act as the spokesperson of the monarchy while you unravel all the conspiracies.""Good, it's settled then." Dustin nodded."Oh, right. There's this." Austin suddenly took o

"Are you suggesting that someone is inciting the simultaneous rebellion of the Four Sovereigns?" Eloise frowned."That's right!" Austin continued with a solemn expression. "Currently, only one person can make the Four Sovereigns obey orders in West Lucozia." "Julius!" Eloise blurted out. "Uncle Julius is an ambitious man and is adept at scheming. He intends to force us to surrender the military insignia through the Four Sovereigns." Austin narrowed his eyes as he analyzed the situation. "If we refuse, the Four Sovereigns would start a rebellion, compelling us to deploy troops to quell the unrest. "At that point, he will interfere and hinder our military campaign to ensure we fail. Once our military campaign fails, our prestige will be greatly damaged. "When public outcry reaches its peak, he will emerge as the savior, rescuing the people from turmoil and subduing the Four Sovereigns successfully. "By then, he will be hailed by the masses and become an uncrowned king.

Summitville was a border town in West Lucozia. It was also the Marquis of Sunfire, Wyatt Mitchell's territory. Wyatt was a military general and had fought alongside the Prince of West Lucozia for many years. He achieved numerous merits and was later given the title Marquis of Sunfire, entrusted with guarding the border of West Lucozia. Over the years, he had been diligent and responsible in his duties.Right then, a black SUV came to a stop at the entrance of the Marquis of Sunfire's residence. Dustin, Austin, and a few other people stepped out of the vehicle. "Logan, this is the Marquis of Sunfire, Wyatt Mitchell's residence." Austin introduced Wyatt briefly. "Wyatt is a loyal and valiant person and has been managing Summitville for many years. He is extremely dedicated in his work." "Who's there sneaking around outside?" two guards standing at the entrance quickly noticed the anomaly and shouted.Austin took the lead and approached them, presenting his identification bad

Chapter 1800

Austin's plan was simple. The initial approach involved diplomacy before resorting to force, primarily focusing on persuasion and amnesty. If the four rebelling sovereigns were willing to submit to the monarchy, they would be pardoned and their existing positions of power safeguarded. However, if diplomatic efforts failed, they had to resort to force to suppress the rebellion. In that case, the monarchy would join forces with the other Four Sovereigns and West Lucozia's allied powers to eliminate the traitors and quell the rebellion.If war became inevitable, then a swift resolution would be their best option.After hearing Austin's plan, Wyatt nodded solemnly and said, "The power and influence I have today were bestowed by your father. "Whether it's to deploy troops to quell the rebellion or offer my own life, I will not hesitate!" "Uncle Wyatt, your commitment is deeply appreciated. With your support, we will certainly overcome this crisis!" Austin responded.Offering more
