Chapter 173: Side Story – Flowers of Evergarden II

At the center lay the body of Mohichi, the King of Hangury, who had departed from this world. The monarch, who had dedicated his life to protecting his country, had finally laid down his heavy burden and entered his eternal rest, surrounded by mourners grieving his passing.
Among them were Gerard, commander-in-chief of the Hangurian army, the soldiers of the Black Legion, and Robert, son of King Mohichi and now the new monarch of Hangury.
With heavy hearts, they bid farewell to the ruler who had guided them through hardship and restored stability to their land.
