Suddenly Nobles

Support

Early in the morning a large boat from Brodsway had arrived at the port of Sasania which was always crowded as usual. Due to the alien shape of the ship, people noticed their goals. But once the anchor was lowered and Lucas set foot again in his homeland, proud cheers immediately flooded his arrival with joy.

"Your Majesty, I have heard all this time that you are secretly watching the little people like us. It's worth it since you left, the level of security in our place feels like something is lacking!"

Now, the woman carrying her two children seemed to nod in agreement. "A day without your presence, it feels the same as a year. Crown Prince, please don't leave us again!"

"Know this, why did not you serve as the Crown Prince. It seems that without you, our Sasania would not be as advanced as it is now" the short man who infiltrated the crowd, surrounded Lucas who was right in the middle of them. "We would also be willing if you were to take the place of the present king."

The others looked at Lucas. From their gazes they spoke as if saying the same thing.

"Because we love you."

Behind him, Eve smiled silently. His request to Beckett — to help herd public opinion to make Lucas' name better— in fact has succeeded. Much more successful than his expectations. Now the last, and most important, step is about to begin. Like it or not, Lucas had to overthrow his own father's government.

"My journey, it won't work without you." Lucas throws a smile, creating a friendly impression on his swarming people. "It just so happens that His Majesty the King once promised me the throne if he managed to defeat half of Brodsway, our enemy. Now I have defeated their country and taken power. As agreed, His Majesty should have come down from his throne himself, right."

"I promise to unite Brodsway with us. That way Sasanian power will be more widespread."

Hearing the good news, the people's trust in him grew stronger. This is Lucas, the king they've always wanted. Different from his naive father who wanted peace, the Crown Prince was very brave to raise the war flag so that the enemy thought again to attack them. Now, news of Brodsway's defeat to Sasania has been spread. Just waiting for time, there will be no one else who will dare to disturb the peace of the Sasanian people who are usually haunted by human trafficking and the abduction of children.

"We'll escort you to the palace. As per the agreement, seize your rights over His Majesty the King!"

Is this what it feels like to be appreciated after struggling desperately all this time? Deep down, Lucas was really happy. All the pain and sacrifice seemed to have paid off completely with just their happy smile. Smile without burden, loose. Let their lives, Lucas bear. Either a thousand or even ten thousand years left Lucas would not mind sitting as king if all his people together supported him from behind.

"Then we go now." Lucas turned his head, giving Eve a look as if he wanted the woman to remain by his side.

"Priet queen, come with me."

Eve smelled a smile. After Lucas rode on his horse, the man reached out to Eve and sat down in front of him. Since the little folk were not invited during his inauguration as a member of the Lumiere family, some of them whispered curiously.

"Who is that woman. Did the Crown Prince find him at Brodsway?"

"Very pretty. But ... does not matter if the new queen instead comes from among Brodsway. Fearfully, even those who dominate the palace."

"What the fuck are you guys. The beautiful woman is the daughter of the Duke of Lumiere who was previously reported missing. Unexpectedly, it turns out that Her Ladyship lost due to running away with the Crown Prince. They love each other, so it should be together!"

"Ah, romance!"

"Look, people have thought a lot about us" Lucas whispered right next to Eve.

"But 'many things' are true, right." Eve replied to him while giggling amusedly.

"That's right, pretty." As Eve faces forward, Lucas immediately steals a kiss on the girl's right cheek. Eve can only sculpt. The excitement immediately echoed after watching Lucas' actions just now.

Hudson looked back and forth in front of his throne room. Every now and then, he noticed the large chair that was placed up there. The most beautiful seats compared to the rows of chairs of the top brass, accompanied by an anxious look. The news of the Crown Prince's absolute victory had been heard since midnight last night. Now his feelings are mixed. It was only in his thirty years that he became King of Sasania. Does he now have to give it all up, thanks to a ridiculous thing called betting?!

How Lucas can beat Brodsway in a heartbeat. Does he have an advantage? Excess that is not in me, his mind is in a state of turmoil.

The king hit his own head several times. The excruciating headache pain came back as if gnawing at his brain. Plus the reckless deeds of Lucas, the pain this time many times more terrible. Hudson suffered for it.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is on his way here."

In the rest of his consciousness, Hudson nodded slowly.

At the very least, he would retain the throne in order to remain his. The foolishness with the stakes at that time, most importantly the voice of the nobility and the people was still in his hands. As long as those conditions are met, Lucas will not dare to mess with him.

"Your Majesty."

Hudson turned to the door. An expectant smile rises when he sees the figure he has been looking for in recent days appear at the right time. The king, who was about to die, hurriedly approached General Nicholas. Dragging the man in because he believed, only the general was willing to side with him this time.

"In the meantime my son will come and plan to kill me cruelly, General. The Crown Prince who turned out to be a greedy man, wanted my throne as quickly as possible, whether for what he used. If you're still thinking about the welfare of the people, then help me take on the mad Prince Lucas!"

General Nicholas was silent. Isn't the king good at twisting facts?

"Of course, I always think about the welfare of the people above all else because they were my main focus during my time as a general."

Hearing Nicholas's reply, Hudson felt even more relieved. At least Sasania's strongest general is still siding—

"However, I've known everything, Your Majesty. Given that Sasania are the ones who have always kept your promise especially as the number one person here, then I suggest that you hand over the throne no later than this afternoon to the Crown Prince, according to the contents of the agreement. Of course you're willing, right. Men will be considered cowards if they forget the slightest promise."

Hudson pias's face. His lips were crotchety, unable to take out a word even just to defend himself.

"And also, the Crown Prince will not kill you. I can guarantee that. Although His Royal Highness was educated cruelly, but that does not mean he easily forgets someone who has been meritorious to him."

"General.." - Hudson finally, "you betrayed me."

"I think it's better to betray one person than to betray the entire Sasanian people. They want the Crown Prince to be your successor, as soon as possible. I can do nothing but realize the wishes of those who stay one step ahead."

As a last salute, with his status as king and general, Nicholas bowed his head. It is time, the Sasanian revolution began.

"May I now remove the crown that is upon your head, Your Majesty?"
