Chapter 74: You Can’t Compare a Human to a Monster!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After a while, Abner scratched his head in confusion, then said with some doubt, “Your Majesty, how can the gap of knowledge between humans be so big?

“I too am a rather intelligent person. I have learned much more than others in several fields of knowledge.

“However, as compared to Lorne, it seemed as though he had covered all fields of knowledge. I only know of this based on the several times we have met in the past few days.

“I am much older than him. I could be considered his senior even, but when I’m being compared to a man like that…

“It seems that my experience in the world and the knowledge I have gained over the years does not sum much to what Lorne knows. That man terrifies me to no end.”

Kyle silently glanced at Abner and patted his shoulder.

“In the past, I had the same concerns as you. I felt that compared to Lorne, ordinary people like us would have no way to survive. However, much later, I had an epiphany.”

Abner was immediately attracted by Kyle’s words.

“May I ask Your Majesty to elaborate more on this epiphany?”

Kyle said quietly, “We are humans, but he is a monster through and through. We are not of the same type. What is there to compare? You’re trying to use your mortal body to compare with a monster. Wouldn’t that mean you’ll just be digging your own grave when comparing these two?”

Abner immediately understood what Kyle meant.

“Your Majesty, you are very wise. Why didn’t I think of this? Knowing that he is a monster and I would never be able to sum up to that… It relieves me!”

In the carriage, the two of them quietly reached an agreement. They had always thought that Lorne was a monster.

On the other hand, Lorne, who was in his tiny tavern, had no idea that he had been given this title.

…

Kyle’s carriage soon returned to the palace. At this time, Rosen and the others were still in the study. They did not go anywhere and could not help but pace around.

They stayed so that they could discuss the next major policy as soon as Kyle returned and also to find out what Lorne said.

Before Rosen and the others surrounded Kyle when he entered the room, Kyle waved his hand.

“I’ve already asked about everything. The Spartan Kingdom has requested for Lolan to become their suzerain and I shall agree to it!

“However, we would need to negotiate on a few terms.

“The Spartan Kingdom must allow our Lolan Empire to build a fort within their borders and station troops to ensure the safety of our two countries.

“This is to ensure the suzerain relationship between our two countries.

“If they agree, then we’ll accept their request. If they don’t, then we’ll ask the envoys of the Spartan Kingdom to return to where they came from.”

Before Rosen and the others could speak, Kyle had already laid all his cards out.

Allen could not help but ask with some doubt, “Your Majesty, may I know why you would agree to such things?”

Kyle smiled and then explained his reasoning, “This method was taught to me by Lorne.

“The reason why Marcus wants to ask us to become their suzerain is because the internal stability of Spartan is extremely unstable right now. The various tribes and ministers are dissatisfied with this young man, Marcus, becoming the King of Spartan.

“Therefore, civil strife could break out in the country at any time, and it could fall apart at any time. Marcus wants to use the national prestige of our Lolan Empire to protect his position as the King of Spartan!”

As soon as Kyle explained this, the ministers had a look of sudden realization. This was the problem that had troubled them for a long time.

This problem stemmed because they had too little information about the country, and they did not know their true intentions, so they had always been in a state of confusion.

However, now that they heard Kyle’s explanation, they finally understood what it all meant.

The throne was not firmly in place, and Marcus needed help to defend it.

Rosen could not help but say, “Your Majesty, is this from Lorne’s analysis?”

Kyle nodded slightly, and then gave Rosen a look.

“How did you know!”

“…”

He knew, and naturally, he knew best when it came to Lorne’s analysis. Among the ministers, he was the first to witness the magic of that young man.

He had also experienced the heavy snow in the Bora Kingdom in the north and the large-scale drought in the eastern region of the river. These two magical things were predicted in advance.

Therefore, it was not surprising that Lorne could calculate that there was a danger of civil strife in the Spartan Kingdom.

After Rosen silently accepted this fact, it was Andrew who frowned and raised his doubts in a daze.

“Your Majesty, if there is internal strife in the Spartan Kingdom, shouldn’t we, the Lolan Empire, reject their request to make us the suzerain?

“Let them fend for themselves and fall into chaos. Then we will lose a complete major force!”

When Kyle heard Andrew’s words, his eyes immediately lit up. He could not help but walk over and pat Andrew on the shoulder.

“It seems that your administrative ability is on the same level as mine.

“I asked the same question at that time. It seems that I am not alone at all.”

Andrew’s forehead scrunched up from Kyle’s words.

Was he insensitive to matters between the two countries?

Why was he so eager to drag someone down with him as well?

Was he still the wise king they had agreed on?

Was respect really disappearing just like that?!

As for the other ministers, they could not help but secretly rejoice when they saw Andrew being reprimanded for asking such a question. It was fortunate that they had processed the information much slower than him.

Otherwise, the question just now would have come out from their mouths. When that time came, they would definitely be dragged along by Kyle to say that they were on the same level.

Of course, a joke was just a joke. Kyle still explained the reasoning in a very serious manner, “If we simply refuse the request of the Spartan Kingdom.

“Then their internal strife would only make us lose a potential enemy. When we reunite in the future, we can become a major force again. What benefits can we get from it if we don’t?

“So not only should we not refuse, but we should also enthusiastically agree to their request.

“After we become their suzerain, together with the conditions that I’ve just mentioned, we’ll send troops to guard their territory.

“As long as there’s any change or unrest, we can immediately send troops to interfere!”
