Bab 119: I Will Do What Is On My Mind

Vasso gaped at Vanty as if she had just said the most stupid thing in the whole universe. He did not understand why she had a problem with ambition. This was not the first time that she had expressed her discontentment with things he wanted to do.

"You think ambition is a bad thing, Vanty. That is one of my problems with you", King Vasso said.

"It is", Vanty replied.

"Hear me out. I want that land. There are lots of things to gain from having the monopoly of the Ziviel Kingdom", King Vasso said. "My soldiers are still there. If I withdraw them, some of them might not come back because they have sympathized with Thress' cause. If I want to use the power I have here and wage a siege on Ziviel, I do not know how the outcome would be, because I am of the opinion that Thress must have gathered forces for himself. That is the wise thing to do, and it is what I would do if I were in his shoes"
