Love of the Empress 2: King and Queen

Last Audience

At Goluth, word got out that the king of Daffa was dying at this time. This is very exciting news. Because the morale of the Nevarest soldiers who were wandering on the battlefield also decreased.

It is said that the king of Daffa was dying after being attacked by intruders disguised as messengers of queen Tasya. So that the scroll that came with him was suspected as a fake aurat.

After investigation, it turns out that the false messenger had confronted the queen of Tasya's real messenger while the messenger was still on his way to the king of Daffa barracks. This was reinforced by the discovery of a corpse not far from the location of the Daffa soldier's tent at the time.

So it could be that the scroll received by the king of Daffa is a scroll of his real letter. It was only used as an early alibi so that the intruder could gain the Daffa king's trust to approach him.

But all that is speculation. It was also reported that the king of Daffa had gathered his generals to continue the invasion mission. While he rests himself. It is said that the king of Daffa was about to return to the center of Nevarest.

And the most common rumor was that the king of Daffa had not yet awakened from his slumber, after he received poison in the intruder's attack.

Whichever of these rumors is true, one thing everyone agrees on is that the attack on Goluth was delayed for some time.

The news of this king of Nevarest also reached the ears of the Bahm nobility. He was uncomfortable with the situation at the moment. Until now, he also invited his servant to explore the truth of his true story.

"Find the truth as soon as possible! I fear that if this is left to go on, the king of Elfran will decide to take this opportunity and exert all his might to counterattack Nevarest. This can be very serious. There's no way I'm gonna let that cat turn into a lion after eating another dying cat, is there?" The nobleman returned with an analogy.

"Ready, my Lord!" A Bahm man.

After the man was told to leave, Bahm thought again.

"Damn right! If my guess did not miss, surely the intruder who attacked the Daffa king was also sent from the Goluth sneak. They should be able to play fair in this war. So when both of them have run out of ammunition to continue the war, that's when I will appear and master both at once. It's a pity that the clamor seems to be impatient to be able to master Nevarest.."

"If this continues, I must prepare to rule Nevarest before the first king Elfran. Hid. But the time is not right. Just watch out for you, Elfran. I'll make a calculation with you later!" Bahm muttered his threat to the empty air.

Bahm then called his other servant.

"Deliver my message to the Secretary of Defense. I forget. I mean, give my message to the current prime minister of Nevarest. Tell him that in the near future I will visit Nevarest. Prepare the throne for me to sit down immediately upon my arrival there later," said the nobleman later.

The bahm's errand boy obeyed his orders. Before finally going to disappear towards Nevarest.

"Now, there's a Golden Boy and an heirloom of the time that's still on my mind. Why hasn't there been any news about that, either?"

Bahm stared into the distance. The red rays of the sun began to sink from the open shutters. The nobleman really hopes his search for these two things can be completed by his men soon..

***

One week later...

The Bahm nobility headed for the kingdom of Nevarest. It turns out that the rumor that the king of Daffa is dying is really there. Because of this, in order to take advantage of the situation so as not to be taken advantage of by the king of Elfran, the Nobles of Bahm decided to take over the power of Nevarest sooner than planned.

Three days ago, Alul Lazam gave a report to him. That the throne of Nevarest was ready for him to rule. Receiving the news, the Bahm nobility became happy.

And, a week after he heard the news of the dying king of Daffa, the Bahm nobility finally arrived at Nevarest. Along with him, he also brought 250 shadow warriors.

Bahm accidentally didn't bring his entire army to Nevarest. According to Alul Lazam, they only need to give up the throne symbolically. So there's no need to bother fighting or anything. Because the military control was partly on Alul Lazam.

While for the other half, military power is still on the battlefield there. Under Antes, the Chief of the Military.

Everything happened so fast. Queen Tasya was still lying on her bed and unconscious. Alul Lazam introduced the Bahm nobility as a distant cousin of the Jordanian king who roamed the neighboring state.

Therefore, the new prince of Himada will be raised to crown prince first. While waiting for his father's return from the battlefield. And in the meantime, every audience will be led by the Bahm nobleman as the king's advisor.

No one dared to protest over this extraordinary event. Because almost everyone knows that protests will only make them lose their lives.

...

The Balairung chamber of the Nevarest palace..

The audience was held again in the hall. But now the audience atmosphere feels gloomy and quieter. All this is due to the presence of a foreign figure who suddenly served an important seat in every audience that took place lately. He is, the Bahm nobleman.

"I just heard the news that our king, His Majesty Daffa, has died on his way here" Bahm said.

Just contact it, all audience participants jumped in shock. It was unexpected that the brilliant young king would finally fall on the battlefield. Really am. This is the biggest loss for the kingdom of Nevarest lately.

"This is a sorrow for this country. Therefore, while waiting for His Majesty's body to arrive, this kingdom will experience a period of mourning. Black flags will be flown along the way. This was done in honor of the late king of Daffa" Bahm said with an unseen look so sad.

"Next, to fight the Goluth kingdom movement that continues to challenge peace in this country, I suggest that we make an alliance with the ruler of the kingdom of Allain. King Bahima."

Balairung room was immediately noisy by the sound of rafters.

The Bahm nobility doesn't care about that. He continued to continue his speech.

"King Bahima is a wise man with a military force that is fairly balanced with us. If our two armies unite against the Goluths, victory will be ours!" Bahm cried closing his oration.

Noise still filled the room. Many doubted the words of the Bahm nobility. Given the ruler of Allain has not been able to explain his interrelationship when Goluth warriors once controlled one of the strategic cities in Nevarest.

Somewhat the Bahm has forgotten. Or intentionally ignore that fact. For her, maybe today's audience is just a formality. And all the opinions of the ministers and court officials of Nevarest mean nothing to him.

Unfortunately, Bahm's hopes for the smoothness of today's audience must be disturbed by the emergence of a voice.

"So so the look of his end Da know, who the enemy that has been enveloping this country from behind the shadows. The appearance of the king of Bahima is also related, or, should we just open your true double identity, Nobility Bahm..?" Speak a voice from behind the shadow on the left side of the wall.

Instantly, the attention of everyone in the hall was focused on the direction the voice had come from. And all were very surprised, when he found the figure of the Daffa king who stood in a black uniform almost covered his entire body. But now the mask that covers his face has been opened and shows his handsome face.

"His Majesty the King!"

"King Daffa!"

"That's King Daffa!"

The hall suddenly became crowded by the calls of the officials and ministers attending the audience. Meanwhile, the caller now walks casually into the middle of the room while staring intently at the Bahm nobleman who is on the podium.

"You?! How did you get here?! Shouldn't you...!!?" Bahm was unable to continue his sentence.

"What's? you think Da is dead. Don't you, Bahm? or is it. king Bahima?" Daffa gave a cynical smile to the haughty man on the podium.
