Chương 599: Visiting The Mayor's Residence

***

Lord Arthur Hirsch, the mayor of Greensborough, was shocked when the city commander told him King Loriel Ashborn was waiting for him at the gate of his residence. He had only met the monarch once in his life, during Maxim's coronation two years ago.

It was such a big event and Lord Hirsch felt lucky to be invited because his father was a long-time supporter of the Ashborns who had sworn loyalty to Summeria long before the empire conquered most of Atlantea like today.

His father, King Roland Hirsch, was the king of Friesland, a lesser kingdom in Atlantea, one of Summeria's colonies, but the only one to receive special treatment from the Ashborns. The old king had several sons and they each governed a big city under their father's rule.

Greensborough was one of the smallest and least significant cities in Friesland. It was given to Arthur Hirsch because he was his father's least favorite son and would never inherit the Friesland throne from him.
