Chapter 2105: Shocks

In a large royal hall, a huge number of people had gathered.

Had Rui been there, he would have recognized them.

They were members of his faction.

Or rather, former members.

In the past six months, Emperor Rael had won each and every single one of them over to his faction.

It had been effortless.

While Rui had needed to toil and struggle to earn the approval and loyalty of those who had eventually become a part of his faction, his father made it look easy.

With blessed innate attractiveness and aesthetics, perfected mastery over verbal and non-verbal communication, immaculate control over his body, and even a background in diplomacy and behavioral psychology, his charisma far exceeded anything that Rui could muster.

This, in conjunction with his already high esteem and status within Kandria, had allowed him to win back all of Rui's political influence and completely make it his own.
