The Knight's Journey to the Empire

Although these pillar knights worshipped by the royal court of the Kingdom of Midburg were mainly trained with resources provided by the royal court, their powerful strength determined their status, which was bound to be somewhat detached from the world.

Therefore, among these Knights of the Pillars of the State, except for a very small number who have no hope for the future or who want to join a team to climb up, the majority of the rest are loyal to His Majesty the King, that is, loyal to the throne.

That is to say, as long as the throne of the Kingdom of Midburg is still in the hands of the Granbell family, it will be fine.

As for who in the Granbell family sits on the throne, they will not interfere too much.

For example, this time, Master Oliver accepted the king's order to escort His Royal Highness Prince Mercurysteen to the [Angliss Islands].

In fact, he was just fulfilling his promise to "be loyal to the royal family of the Kingdom of Midburg".

After all, those who can cultivate to the professional level of Pillar Knight are all gifted and arrogant.

And the remaining time is not enough for them to practice and break through to the level of Legendary Knight, so where do they find the time to interfere excessively with these "little things"!

But precisely because of this, Master Oliver was unaware of what His Royal Highness Prince Mercristian had just said.

But after thinking deeply about it, he understood the reason.

Given the current situation of the Kingdom of Midburg, if the royal family does not want their bloodline to be cut off or their heritage to be lost, they should make some arrangements.

And since His Royal Highness Prince Mercristian was able to tell him these "secrets", he knew that the other party completely trusted him.

At the same time, since His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Midburg chose to entrust him with the task of escorting Crown Prince Mercristin at such a special time, there was also a hint of entrusting an orphan to him.

Therefore, it can be seen from this that Master Oliver has a strong sense of belonging to the Kingdom of Midburg.

As for how strong it is, it should at least be strong enough to gain the trust of a king.

……

If Master Oliver really wants to say it: In fact, Prince Mercristen is inferior to his younger brother Prince Leo II in both intelligence and means.

Therefore, His Majesty the King has arranged the two of them like this, and the result is self-evident: Prince Leo II, who is heading towards the Principality of Glia, will definitely have a greater chance.

Although Master Oliver did not say anything, from the changes in his expression, Mercury already knew his true thoughts.

And this suddenly made him feel a little unbelievable!

"How could this happen? Master Oliver, didn't you say that Countess Katis could gain a foothold there?"

"Besides, it is basically impossible for the Kingdom of Essex to give up attacking the Principality of Glia, so how could Leo's success rate be higher than mine?"

Master Oliver then explained: "Merchristine, according to the intelligence we received, Countess Katis has already transported more than 30,000 people to the [Angliss Islands]!"

"So with the help of these people, they can indeed gain a foothold there, but if they want to develop on this basis, that will be extremely difficult!"

"After all, these islands are newly developed. Not only are the infrastructures not fully built, but even the supplies are not fully prepared!"

"Moreover, with such a small number of people, no matter how hard we try, we can't raise an army that can resist the Kingdom of Essex in a short period of time."

"But, how could this happen! I am the eldest prince! I am the most legitimate heir to the Kingdom of Midburg. How could my father... do this?" Prince Mercristin suddenly felt a little lost.

The reason why His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Midburg chose to do this is simply to spread the risk and have multiple options and multiple paths.

The character of Prince Mercristian is more calm, not as radical and decisive as Prince Leo II.

Therefore, if he were allowed to inherit the throne normally, he would most likely be a king who would maintain the status quo.

But the situation in the kingdom is now extremely serious.

It is certainly impossible to follow the original method, so this distribution is made.

After all, compared to the foreign Principality of Glia, it is undoubtedly more stable to move to the [Angliss Islands] with Countess Katis, who was originally a noble of the same country.

Therefore, there is actually a little bit of selfishness on the part of His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Midburg: His Majesty the King does not need Prince Mercristin to do well, he only needs him to continue the bloodline and heritage of the royal family of the Kingdom of Midburg.

On the other side, Master Oliver obviously did not understand the King's painstaking efforts.

Because he was afraid that Prince Mercristian would become depressed, he comforted him: "Your Highness, in fact, moving to the [Angliss Islands] is not that bad. Because as far as I know, the resources in this sea are also very rich."

"And since Countess Katis can think of moving to the Antilles, she can definitely think of a way to increase the number of people in the territory."

"So after we land on the island, if we can find an opportunity to control the sovereignty of the [Anglican Islands] in our own hands and then make good use of the resources on the sea for development, it is not impossible for us to set foot on the mainland again in the future."

"Then Master, how can we take control of the [Angliss Islands] into our own hands?"

A glimmer of hope suddenly arose in Prince Mercristian's heart.

"There are only two ways: marriage or..." Master Oliver made a gesture of slitting his neck to kill someone.

Prince Mercristian's eyes flickered and became meaningful.

Soon, Prince Mercristian returned to his previous lazy look.

Obviously, he regained his confidence at this time.
