章節 59: Chapter 59

The note Artemis received clearly stated that Lord Gandalf had officially step aside from the realm. Maldonia isn't powerful without House Old City as their allies, King Arteides knew it better and that's why he managed his relation with Lord Visery Squire who was succeeded by Gandalf after his demise.

Without the Squires, Maldonia was weak. And not to say both powerful and rich houses of Horriss and Iron Falcon weren't in ally with the crown anymore. So in total Artemis lost three powerful houses and it hadn't even been a year since he was crowned king.

House Green Town led by Lord Grimwald, House Copperstone led by Lord Maurin and House Sea Stone led by Lord Hofun were the only three houses which swore allegiance to the crown and supported Artemis's marriage to Aurora. Apart from Sea Stone owning thousands fleet of ships, the rest were weak.
