“My Lord, after spending the day visiting various places with you, I’ve already sensed the atmosphere of war,” said Burt, bowing slightly towards Leo Ray.
“Furthermore, the lords from various places all mentioned the same news today. The power struggle between the three princes, which initially only occurred in and around the Royal Capital, has gradually spread to other regions outside the capital,” he added seriously.
Joshua also chimed in, his brows furrowed, “You’re right, Burt. Just when we left the Royal Capital, several large-scale, legion-level battles had already broken out in the surrounding affiliated cities, with smoke constantly filling the air.”
However, because Bryan Nelsen, who serves the old king, controls the forces of the eight legions and frequently intervenes, most of the casualties were only small in scale, not turning into life-or-death battles.”
Ariel Watson shook her head helplessly and said, “To be precise, although Uncle Wilson received the old king’s instructions and has command of the eight legions, currently, only six legions are stationed in and around the Royal Capital. Lord White and his Fortress Legion are stationed at the Mountain Fortress, while the Blade Legion is with my elder sister at the Invincible Northern Fortress.”
“My Lord, what we can be sure of is that under the deterrence of the six legions, my three elder brothers are still lawless and resorting to the sword, let alone in other places where the six legions could not intervene,” Ariel continued solemnly.
After listening to Ariel, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.
He had seen the Fortress Legion commanded by Lord White during the Fortress Defense Battle before. Their overall strength and morale were indeed higher than that of ordinary defense forces but had declined due to the lack of important supplies such as equipment and troops after several battles against the Saint Night Army.
Bringing his thoughts back to the present, Leo Ray took a deep breath and slowly said, “I understand what you mean. Just as I expected, the flames of power struggle may spread to the eastern region where we are at any time.”
“My Lord, that’s exactly the case,” Ariel said with a serious expression. “Moreover, the situation in our region is more complicated. Although there are almost no large-scale forces belonging to my fourth brother in this area, it’s still…”
As she was speaking, Ariel looked worried, her eyes downcast, “However, after all, I, the thorn in the eyes of several brothers, am still in Cyan Town. Plus, there’s the recent victory in the Fortress Defense Battle…”
“Don’t worry, when the battle begins, the name of Ariel Watson, the Fifth Princess of Coldflame, will echo not only throughout Coldflame but also the Human Clan’s various countries,” Leo Ray assured her with a smile, standing up. “I’ll do my best to fulfill the promise I made and help you win the throne of Coldflame.”
“Subordinate is extremely grateful to My Lord!”
Ariel’s delicate face was filled with gratitude, and she said excitedly, “In this way, the innocent Coldflame citizens caught in the whirlpool of power struggle will no longer have to suffer the torment of war in vain!”
After listening to Ariel’s words, Leo Ray simply continued smiling, making no further promises or guarantees.
At present, the situation in the Coldflame Eastern Region where the territory lies is complex and intricate.
In addition to the internal forces centered around Pine City led by the Great Prince and those led by the Second Prince with Iron Fort as the center, the Saint Night Kingdom is also lurking and waiting to strike. More importantly, the mysterious organization that has been hiding in the shadows and remaining unfathomable has been silent, like the calm before a storm.
According to the intelligence obtained, both the Great Prince and the Third Prince have the support of powerful forces behind them. If one of those parties is the mysterious organization, then who could the other be? The thought sends shivers down the spine.
However, it is certain that the force capable of standing behind a prince and helping him vie for the throne is not ordinary.
With this thought, Leo Ray couldn’t help but take another deep breath, his face filled with seriousness.Although the scale of the troops under his command had reached a level comparable to either of the two princes after a series of previous actions, it was only limited to this area.
Under the circumstances of internal and external troubles, he obviously didn’t have enough confidence to guarantee a hundred percent victory against the enemy.
Nor did he have confidence in being able to completely take control of the entire region after the war.
If he failed to quickly take control of the entire region and heavily guard Galaxy City on the Galaxy Corridor, he would undoubtedly face the furious counterattack of the princes’ other regional forces.
Most importantly, during this process, the resurgence of the Saint Night Kingdom and the sudden emergence of the mysterious organization could not be ruled out – these were unpredictable adverse factors.
As Leo Ray thought about it, Ariel Watson, Joshua, and Burt in front of him all had serious expressions.
As the three who had once been at the core of Coldflame’s power, they understood very well.
These city lords, either from the traditional nobles who have continued since the era of the Hero King or from the new aristocracy who have risen in the past three hundred years.
Although mostly for their own interests, they have levied heavy taxes in their territories and retained the abolished serfdom system, they have been extravagant and indifferent to the lives of the lower-class civilians.
However, without exception, they have all received the kingdom’s top elite education, assistance from talented individuals, and the heritage passed down through generations of their families cannot be underestimated.

In other words, these enemies live in luxury but are not incapable or stupid, on the contrary, they are cunning and treacherous, and even their own strength is often unmatched in their territories and not easily defeated.
Feeling the anxiety of the three, Leo Ray couldn’t help but frown slightly, but soon he relaxed again.
“Well, the battlefield has always been full of uncertainty.”
“And now, before the storm of war arrives, the power I have in my hands is almost at the maximum I could wield right now. Next, it depends on how I choose to act.”
“Once the battle begins, it will be a massive battlefield with hundreds of thousands, or even two hundred thousand soldiers fighting each other. Although it’s hard for me to control such a vast scale right now…”
“But fortunately, my subordinates not only have experienced commanders like Burt, Joshua, and Benson, but also have intelligent ministers and managers like Ariel Watson, Rose Marquis, Hode, Asher Porter, and not to mention the uniquely skilled subordinates like Taylor, a Tier 5 Powerhouse, and others.”
Thinking about this, Leo Ray walked in front of the three and nodded to them one by one, “As long as we work together, we will be invincible!”
Hearing this, the faces of Ariel Watson, Burt, and Joshua were filled with excitement, and they nodded heavily.
“Alright, you guys can stay in the territory for these few days. I’ve already instructed Linda to create the illusion that the princess is still in power in Cyan Town. Moreover, the Lord’s Mansion of Cyan Town, protected by the Detection Barrier, won’t be easily spied on by the enemies.”
Looking at their increasingly determined eyes, Leo Ray spoke again, “Go back and rest. Before the war comes, we must always maintain our full energy.”
“Yes, Lord!”
Hearing this, the three of them saluted respectfully, then bowed and left.
As they left, Leo Ray returned to his seat, a faint smile appearing on his face.
Today, during his visit to various territories, he had made an extremely important deployment.
Without a doubt, this could further increase his chances of winning.
