The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 614 The Farce Ends
"It's a misunderstanding, Your Highness! I don't know anything! I really..." Apophis Breo was so anxious that he almost invented his own language, gesturing wildly as he tried to explain to Roland.

"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Caslo asked, looking at the two of them.

Everyone perked up their ears upon hearing Caslo's words, as they all wanted to know what Roland had seen that could make the usually good-tempered Roland so furious.

"Heh! See for yourself!" Roland narrowed his eyes, sneered, and handed the two letters to Caslow.

Caslow took the envelope from Roland with a somewhat dazed expression and quickly began to examine it carefully. Dos Anthony and Ajax Anthony also pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what was written on it.

"..." Caslo glanced at the two letters a few times and then closed them. He closed his eyes in pain, but the twitching muscles on his face showed that he was enduring a lot of discomfort.

"Let me see!" Ajax snatched the letter from Caslo's hand and flipped it open before Caslo could stop her.

"Ah..." Ajax exclaimed in surprise.

The two letters can be described in layman's terms as follows: The letter from Lulong Fortress stated that the king had just passed away and the queen was immoral! Despite the safety of the nation, they had mobilized the entire army and now decided to support Apophis Breo to inherit the throne and restore stability to the country.

As for the letter from Swiftstream, it was even more perplexing. It stated that Queen Nyx had no interest in the throne and intended to abdicate in favor of Apophis Breo. However, in exchange for favors, Apophis Breo would need to do everything in his power to help her take revenge after ascending the throne.

In short, both letters harmoniously expressed the desire for Apophis Breo to become king, showing that everyone still has a strong sense of support for him... What a load of rubbish! Roland is still alive!
"..." Dos Anthony glanced at them a few times and then quietly moved away from the crowd. He was really afraid of getting splattered with blood.

"Come, come, Great King Apophis Breo, please explain this to me?" Roland looked at Apophis Breo with a half-smile.

Apophis Breo instantly broke out in a cold sweat. Roland had asked a death trap! How was he supposed to answer King Roland? Tell him that he actually really wanted to experience that position? And King Apophis Breo… that one word made Apophis Breo feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, as if he had a thorn in his back and a fishbone stuck in his throat!
"I don't know! How dare I call myself king? It's a misunderstanding!" Apophis Breo said with a bitter face.

"I'm afraid everyone thinks I've fallen, but you, as the only male with royal blood flowing through your veins..." Roland stared at Apophis Breo with a smile, but the expression on his face sent chills down Apophis Breo's spine. After all, the game of thrones is always about intrigue and bloodshed, and he had just crossed the line in this game of thrones.

“Caslo!” Roland looked up at Caslo.

"Your Highness!" Caslo said, clasping his hands in greeting.

"Go and write a letter back to each of them!" Roland said with a dark face.

"In my name! Tell Nyx that I'm not dead yet! No need to mourn my death prematurely!" Roland's eyes were filled with speechlessness.

"Also, tell Lulong Fortress to tell those who are eager to change masters to wait a bit. There's no need to rush to choose a successor for the kingdom!" Roland said coldly.

"..." Apophis Breo, who was standing to the side, quietly took a few steps back and glanced at Roland a few times. He knew that someone was going to be in trouble.

"Manage your territory well! Don't think about those messy things!" Roland glanced at Apophis Breo and warned him. Although this matter probably had nothing to do with Apophis Breo, Roland didn't want Apophis Breo to have any inappropriate thoughts.

"Yes, sir!" Apophis Breo breathed a sigh of relief. Clearly, he had gotten past Roland's hurdle. Roland obviously didn't want to dwell on the matter, only giving him a few words of reprimand, which Apophis Breo considered the best possible outcome. However, Apophis Breo's brows quickly furrowed again.

“Your Highness…” Apophis Breo reached out his hand as Roland strode towards the door.
"What? Is something wrong?" Roland's voice was cold, causing Apophis Breo to shrink back involuntarily.

"Doesn't His Highness need a day to rest?" Apophis Breo looked at Roland. If Roland went back, Yunfeng and the others would definitely be in trouble. After all, if this happened to any other monarch, it would be a matter of life and death.

“If we stay another day, we’ll be back in the kingdom tomorrow and nobody will know!” Roland said irritably.

……

Watching Roland and the dragon knights hurriedly leave, Olaf looked at Apophis Breo and asked curiously what those letters had said.

"It's nothing, just that some people are going to be in trouble." Apophis Breo glanced sympathetically in the direction of Lulong Fortress; clearly, these people were in for a rough time.

……

"Tell me what to do!" Omske crossed his arms and looked at everyone with amusement. After all, everyone had chosen Apophis Breo without hesitation after learning that Nyx had gone mad, but they never expected Roland to still be alive. Their behavior was getting interesting...

"..." Yun Feng and the others exchanged glances, and they all saw two words in each other's eyes—exhausted!
"Let's take it one step at a time! After King Roland returns, the king will take full responsibility! Let him kill or torture us as he pleases!" Yun Feng was straightforward; since resistance was futile, it was better to accept it calmly.

“King Roland shouldn’t blame us…after all, there was a reason for it!” Lance offered a rational analysis.

“Never challenge a ruler’s red lines regarding power! If you’re wrong, admit it!” Yun Feng patted Lance on the shoulder and said frankly. Although the occurrence of this matter was too coincidental, they were still wrong after all.

"..." Everyone fell silent after hearing Yun Feng's words.

……

"Ah!" Nyx's delighted scream made Renault cover his ears in pain, while Lavian, who was standing next to him, wanted to do the same, but his status was different from Renault's, so he was destined to only "enjoy" Nyx's ear-piercing scream.

Finally, under Lavian's grimacing expression, Nyx stopped screaming and asked about Renault's return date, his anticipation and hope evident in his eyes.

"..." Renault glanced at Nyx, seemingly wanting to say something but then hesitated, before finally gritting his teeth and speaking.

"Your Highness will probably have to go to Lulong Fortress first, after all, this farce should come to an end..." Renault said somewhat awkwardly, covering his eyes. Obviously, this farce, which almost caused a civil war in the kingdom, was quickly wiped out by Roland's resurrection, but the series of troubles it brought were far from over.
