"Do you understand the severity of what you are saying, Old Thunder? If we let conflict break out, not only would my blood brother die, but the rest of the kingdom will be dragged into a war that we don't want!"
King Lutheran stated gravely.
Even if he was the king, he still had to answer the people's outrage if the empire killed several hundreds of Transcendent-level experts from their kingdom.
Otherwise, King Lutheran would lose the heart of the people!
However, the empire had five Paragons! And that was only a glimpse of the empire's strength! Who knew how many more Paragons the empire had!
Thus, ultimately, King Lutheran would still decide to go against the people's wishes and deny the war to the best of his power and authority.
Even if it means going down in history as a coward!
"Of course, I understand what I'm saying," Old Thunder calmly said. He completely understood the weight of his words.
