Chapter 431: Technically Going Easy
In the Royal Capital of the Locke Kingdom, atop a tall building that reached thousands of meters high and covered hundreds of mu, resembling a pillar supporting the heavens—Duke Will, Duke Kaidel, and Duke Juniper, the three great Dukes of the kingdom and rulers of provinces, were standing on the top floor of this building, waiting somewhat anxiously.
This was the highest-level Five-Star Mage Tower in the Locke Kingdom, and simultaneously the highest-level observatory in the kingdom. At this moment, these three Dukes had been summoned here by His Majesty the King solely to prove one matter.
That was the rationality of His Majesty the King wanting to expand the provinces.
The three of them had once been His Majesty the King's intimate partners and powerful teammates. They had all once fought shoulder-to-shoulder over a thousand years ago and created this great enterprise of the Locke Kingdom. But as time passed, it seemed even their former friendship had been corroded by the years.
Over the past few years, His Majesty the King had frequently taken action, continuously tossing about, wanting to establish new provinces. But how could this matter be so easy? One always had to pay something. The ecology of the kingdom had originally trended toward stability; as long as they didn't toss about, there wouldn't be any problems.
As a result, look at it now: after tossing about for several years, not only had it attracted the attention of a massive number of Neanderthal Barbarians, but even the Reincarnator Organizations had caught the scent of blood and wanted to come Stir Up Trouble.
For all of this, there always had to be a reason given, right?!
You are the King, you are a great Six-Star Lord, but you are also the boss of our team.
After a long time, the Magic Shield of the observatory opened. A white-robed female Mage, appearing to be in her twenties, incomparably gorgeous yet bearing a partial aura of holiness, walked out. This was the fifth member of their team, and also one of the five magnates of the kingdom: His Majesty the King's wife, the beautiful Queen.
