Chapter 990 - 507_2
Suddenly, soldiers from the United Kingdom surrounded the deck, encircling the Superior Knight who had killed the leader of the Blossey family, and isolated him from the presence of Lord Ivita and the other two kings.
Ivita finally understood the intention of the Emperor of Frank.
The United Kingdom was not a nation where the king alone made all decisions; the nobles held significant influence. Now, with the family leader of the Blossey clan slain by an Alsasian knight on the deck of the ship, there was a possibility that the United Kingdom would join the Kingdom of Frank’s camp and attack Alsace.
This was a grave diplomatic blunder.
So, this was the plan of the Frankish people.
Ivita eyed the Alsasian knight. "What benefits did they offer you to betray your own country?"
"You shouldn’t have any connection with Jalen and those Pseudo Kings. Why, not welcoming me?"
The Alsasian knight immediately knelt before Ivita, "Your Majesty, you are the finest king in my heart. But... my wife and children are in the hands of the Frankish people, I had no choice... I..."
Louis XI interrupted him, "Knight Gao Wen, why did you kill the Baron Blossey of the United Kingdom? Good heavens, by the God of All Things, it’s too cruel. Why would you commit such a cruel act?"
"Lord Ivita, you are the most powerful wizard here, you must be able to prove that Knight Gao Wen was not under the control of magic."
"All of these actions were his own choice, weren’t they?"
