章 1543: Chapter 1543. The Figurehead of the Alliance

Jack remembered Archibald Silas. He was a level 90 mythical-grade vampire who blocked his way when he was trapped inside Marcus' throne room. If Archibald was present when he challenged Marcus, the difficulty would have increased to a whole new level. Jack learned later that Archibald was with the blood army at the capital wall defending against the rebels' siege.

"Is he planning to rebel?" Jack asked.

"Not yet," Horatio answered. "He handed in his resignation when I became the emperor. Several influential officers followed his example. He is still hiding his intentions but my spies informed me that he has been meeting several clans that are known to be loyal to my father. It is easy to understand what they are planning to do."

Jack thought back to the time when Arther planned his revolt. He guessed there would always be disgruntled followers when an organization changed its leadership.
