“Outrageous, this is ridiculous. Your Majesty, his mother should be executed immediately, and it must be done in public with the most severe punishment!” Clyfford raised his head and said sternly.
“Wasn’t it you who confidently assured me that Isaac would be at your mercy? That’s because you had captured Isaac’s mother to use as leverage, right? You killed Isaac’s mother. He’s far away in the vast Black Desert, with an army of 200 thousand troops and several generals under his command. What do you think favonovel.com might do?”
Clyfford could sense Eldorado’s anger. He immediately bowed his head and said, “Then please, Your Majesty, grant me permission to lead a team to Black Desert and eliminate Isaac to reclaim control of the troops!”
“Foolish! Do you understand the last thing Isaac said? If we don’t follow his instructions in ten days, we’ll see what happens. Do you really think his 200 thousand troops can threaten me? He said to wait and see, it’s very likely that favonovel.com would defect to the enemy, to Elon of the Kingdom of Easteria!”
“With Isaac commanding 200 thousand troops and Elon leading 500 thousand more, that makes a total of 700 thousand soldiers advancing from the north to the south. Can we really stop this massive force of armored troops?!”
“By then, the Kingdom of Easteria will definitely send strong warriors to assist! The downfall of Vriweth is imminent! ”
Upon hearing Eldorado’s words, both Clyfford and Talbot were frightened. Indeed, neither of them had considered that perspective. It was really terrifying when they thought about it!
Clyfford immediately looked up and said, “Your Majesty, if we agree to Isaac’s demands, word will spread outside that Your Majesty compromised with a prisoner, since a lot of people in the Royal City already know about it. This is offensive to Your Majesty!”
“Your Majesty, Lord Hackworth is right. We must not agree to the prisoner’s demands,” Talbot said, his voice trembling.
Eldorado let out a long sigh and frowned. He closed his eyes, and leaned back on his bed.
At this moment, a clear voice came from outside the door. “Father, let me go. Let me be the hostage…”
Skylar, dressed in a light blue long gown, came in from outside and quickly knelt beside Clyfford.
Clyfford and Talbotimmediately turned to look at Skylar in surprise.
“Father, you can’t agree to Isaac’s request, but also can’t let the situation get out of hand. Sending me as a hostage is the best option. Isaac saved me, and I have also helped him. If you let me go, Isaac will understand your stance and sincerity. Please grant this request!”
Eldorado frowned, his eyes revealing a look of struggle.
“What do you think?” Eldorado asked, closing his eyes as favonovel.com addressed the other two high-ranking officials.
Talbot looked at Clyfford, who, unable to think of a better solution at the moment, sighed and said, “In the face of the nation’s crisis, it’s fortunate for our kingdom that the Princess is willing to step forward and risk favonovel.com life…”
“Skylar, you know that going there could be a critical situation…” Eldorado slowly opened his eyes and looked at Skylar with sadness.
“It is a child’s duty to share the worries of their parents. I know Isaac, favonovel.com is not a person devoid of humanity. I have one condition before I leave. Please grant me this favor, Father!”
Eldorado waved his hand and said, “Granted, whatever you say is granted…”
Skylar looked toward Clyfford, and said in a serious tone, “Please hand over Isaac’s mother to Lord Stackhouse of the general’s mansion. Since it involves military affairs, it should be managed by the general’s mansion.”
