Chapter 786: A Thoughtful Husband
Everyone in the throne room did not want to give more time to Crux.
"Your Majesty, I believe it’s time to settle this. If they are given an extension, they might ask for another when the time is up once again," Head Minister Adelard concluded.
The ministers and household heads gathered in the throne room seconded Adelard. They also believe Crux had gone too far to be forgiven.
With everyone in unison about this, there was no issue with Ferdinand declaring the attack.
"It is good that we are all on the same page about this. We will attack Crux as planned and bring home the remaining Prudencians they have," Ferdinand declared.

[Thank goodness! We are not yet in a state where we can win against Crux on our own. With His Majesty’s army, I’m sure we would see our people again. Everyone will be delighted with this news.] Odette’s older brother sighed in relief as Ferdinand finally pronounced those words.
"However, we have a change of plans," Ferdinand added and the room became silent again as they waited for him to continue. He then said, "We were supposed to just reclaim the Prudencians. But now, we will take Crux and make it a vassal state."
The room was silent as they processed this before they finally cheered in approval, "Long live His Majesty!"
