#1068 - Chapter 1067: Stop the troops!

Amelia left, heading to the military camp of the Thirteen Kingdoms.

No one followed; she went alone.

...

In the city lord's mansion on the Kern Kingdom side, the atmosphere was extremely strange.

Everyone knew that if Amelia met with misfortune, Modesty's position as commander-in-chief would be untenable.

Not only untenable, but when King Kern returned, he would surely punish her!!!

All the ministers knew how much Amelia had toiled since the founding of the Kern Duchy, how important she was to the entire kingdom, and how high her status was in the king's heart.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be sitting in such a crucial position as the head of the cabinet.

Nor would she have been given all the power of the kingdom.

Ministers frequently glanced nervously at Modesty, who was sitting there quietly watching the war projection crystal.

It was as if the decision hadn't been made by her.

After a moment, Modesty spoke, "Issue the order to retreat."

"Ah?!"

All the ministers were shocked.

Even Les was surprised.

But he unconditionally trusted his sister.

He knew that his sister's agreement to go to the Thirteen Kingdoms alliance's military camp alone was definitely not because she thought her life was too long.

On the contrary...

He knew very well that his sister was always thinking about leaving an heir for that Kern guy.

Before completing this goal, she wouldn't put her life aside.

Besides, the current situation hadn't reached the point where she needed to sacrifice herself.

Thinking of this, Les drew his sword.

"I don't want to say the same thing a second time."

The ministers panicked and hurriedly went out to issue the order.

Modesty looked at Les and smiled gently, "Thank you, Captain Les."

Les didn't speak, sheathing his sword and standing upright again.

Soon, with the issuance of the order, the Kern Kingdom's army began to retreat to the six border cities.

Meanwhile, the Thirteen Kingdoms' punitive alliance army was still advancing, attempting to encircle the six border cities.

All the ministers looked at Modesty, their expressions changing.

If the retreat was to give the enemy space, then Modesty was a traitor!!!

Les looked at the scene on the projection crystal, his expression also not very good.

The enemy was still marching, which meant his sister hadn't persuaded their commander.

In that case...

His sister was in danger...

Les's hand holding the sword trembled slightly.

He forced himself to calm down.

He trusted his sister, and he also trusted Kern.

They both trusted Modesty, and she would definitely not be a traitor!

If she was...

He would not hesitate to draw his sword and kill her!!!

Half an hour later.

The Kern Kingdom's army had completely retreated to the six border cities.

But the Thirteen Kingdoms alliance's army showed no signs of stopping; on the contrary, they were pressing on the border, about to launch an attack on the walls of the six cities.

A minister couldn't help but speak, "Modesty! You ordered the retreat! Now the enemy is attacking the city!

What are your good intentions?!"

As one minister spoke, more ministers spoke, "Don't mind her! She's a traitor!!!"

"Lord Cabinet Head... is still in the enemy camp..."

"Never mind! There's no way back; if we retreat further, the six cities will be lost!"

"Come, follow me into battle!!!"

"Quiet!"

Les, who hadn't spoken all along, spoke up.

All the ministers looked at him.

One minister said, "Lord Les! As the captain of the King's Guard, you only obey the king's orders!

Now, the kingdom is in trouble! Are you going to sit idly by?!"

"No matter how powerful Lord Amelia is, she can still make mistakes. She is now trapped in the enemy's clutches... Does that mean you, as her brother, are going to watch the border fall!!!"

"Lord Les!! This old minister requests that you capture this妖女 Modesty first!!!"

"She bewitched Lord Amelia!!"

"..."

Instantly, the entire city lord's mansion was filled with condemnations of Modesty.

Les was also swayed by what was being said.

He was the captain of the King's Guard, only obeying King Kern's orders...

Only caring about the kingdom's safety...

His gaze turned to Modesty, the sword sheath slightly drawn.

However, Modesty didn't move, simply quietly watching the projection crystal.

The sword sheath was drawn out more and more.

Suddenly, the Thirteen Kingdoms alliance's punitive army stopped in the projection crystal.

All the ministers were stunned.

"Stopped?!"

"Really stopped?!"

Les breathed a sigh of relief, returning the sword to its sheath.

Modesty turned around, glanced at Les, and then looked around, "Everyone, please prepare to welcome our army."

After speaking, she left the city lord's mansion directly.

Watching her leave, the many ministers looked at each other, none of them knowing what had happened, that the Thirteen Kingdoms' punitive army had actually stopped.

They had already reached the city gates of the six border cities, and if they advanced further, they would be able to break through the six border cities, but they stopped at this time...

Les looked at the projection crystal, suddenly turned around, and came to the city wall.

Dani, the Netherflame Poison Demon Wolf King, and the strong ones like Gou Da and Er Gou were standing on the city wall.

Seeing Les come over, they nodded in acknowledgment.

Standing on the city wall, one could directly see that below the city wall was the mighty alliance army of the Thirteen Kingdoms.

They wore thirteen different sets of equipment, like thirteen torrents gathered together.

Dani spoke, "These thirteen kingdoms are the strongest thirteen kingdoms under the Ilante Empire besides our Kern Kingdom.

Each kingdom has a tenth-order expert sitting in it.

Some other smaller kingdoms may not even have one tenth-order expert in the entire kingdom..."

The Netherflame Poison Demon Wolf King nodded, "They don't want to fight either; on the contrary, watching from the sidelines is the most advantageous for them."

Dani looked distantly at where the Thirteen Kingdoms alliance's military camp was located, and praised, "Amelia is really amazing..."

Hearing Dani's words, Les looked at her, "Dani..."

Dani turned her head to look at him, revealing a smile, "Don't worry, the fact that the enemy has stopped their army means that Amelia is fine."

"And..."

Dani smiled mysteriously, "She can't possibly be in trouble."

Les was stunned.

Impossible to be in trouble?!

Because of her heavy political affairs, even though the kingdom's resources are being poured into her like crazy, Amelia is still only at the ninth order.

Within the kingdom's borders, she can basically walk sideways, but facing an opponent like the empire, the ninth order is just a small shrimp that can be crushed at will.

Les was puzzled, but Dani didn't intend to explain to him.

Soon, it was dark.

...

The night was thick.

The Kern Kingdom's ten million strong army arrived even faster than expected.

With the replenishment of this ten million strong army, the six border cities instantly became like iron barrels, extremely difficult to break through.

The city lord's mansion was now filled with ministers. The newly added ministers were important figures from the ten million strong army that had come to support.

Modesty sat in the top seat, listening to their reports.

Finally, she nodded, "Go back and rest."

All the ministers were dumbfounded, looking at her.

A tenth-order magical beast hesitantly spoke, "Lord Modesty... we came here to protect the kingdom; what do you mean by telling us to rest?"

Modesty glanced at it, "Right now, every day we can delay is another day.

King Kern will be back soon..."

Hearing her words, all the ministers instantly felt a weight lift off their shoulders.

The king is coming back soon...

Doesn't that mean the crisis is about to be resolved?!
