Chapter 435: Fool

In contrast to the Dragon World, which fell into heated difficulties, the ancient Bardi Empire right next door fell into a deep silence. Perhaps it should be said that this was a manmade silence.

After Bardi lost on the eastern front, the royal knights became extremely active unlike the past periods of enforced silence. The capital was placed under severe martial law. Any princes who tried to take advantage of the situation to create chaos were executed in public as an example to others. The "Sly Fox Scorpion Emperor" Orloss XIII who had appeared to have turned into a kind old man showed the world once again just how vicious he could be.

"Halent will succeed the throne."

Even after Bardi lost the eastern front and much controversy stirred in the country, Emperor Orloss withstood all the pressure and heavily emphasized that his chosen successor, Halent, would be the one to inherit the throne.

Those who opposed him to the face? Executed.
