Chapter 386: The Second Prince of Atria Empire
In the capital of the Atria Empire, Losaris City, the situation is much calmer than in the rest of the empire. This was the first place shaken by the sudden coup led by the second prince and the first to fall under his control. Although the atmosphere remains somewhat tense, the city’s residents have already returned to their normal activities, as they have already come to terms with the situation.
Fortunately, the second prince has not implemented any policies detrimental to the common folk. As a result, despite the capital being under his control, the people have not felt much change.
At the imperial palace, the man in question was in the middle of a meeting with many individuals inside the throne hall. Each of them carried a strong presence and aura that could make ordinary people cower.
A young-looking man with blonde hair, dressed in the emperor’s attire, sat on the imperial throne while dozens of people looked at him solemnly. One of them then stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, I am pleased to report that our army’s movement in the north has not been obstructed. The rebels in that region put up little resistance and were quickly subdued. As for the western side, we are still trying to break through Duke Marle’s defenses at Guvard City."
Another man stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, on the eastern front, we have continued pushing the rebel forces back until they are now trapped in the northeast, at Weilmar City. At this moment, we are maintaining a blockade on their escape and supply routes. As for the southern front, only Grand Duke Arim’s and Baron Rosalind’s forces remain, but we can continue pressing them."
Hearing the reports, the second prince, Wilmar Losaris, showed a satisfied smile. As the one who had successfully usurped the throne and made himself the current emperor, he still could not rest easy until the rebel forces were completely decimated. To secure his position and uphold his absolute rule, he had to eliminate anyone who opposed him.
"Good, keep up this good work. In the next report, I want to hear that the rebels have been wiped out—all of them. I will give generous rewards to everyone once this is over."
The people in the hall displayed ecstatic expressions as they shouted in unison.
"All hail Your Majesty! All hail Emperor Wilmar! Long live the ultimate ruler of the empire!"
