Chapter 845 Section 76 Apology

Chapter 845 Section 76. Apology

"Okay, don't let down the good intentions of the Tatun Empire."

Duke Kingsley seemed to be persuading Paige, but he was actually talking to Annan.

At this time, Annan had already thought of the conditions.

"Then my condition is... an apology."

"Apologize?" Paige was slightly stunned, not because he felt it was difficult to say, but because it was too simple: "Just like this?"

"But not with me, but with Broken Tooth."

Paige's ease gradually faded, replaced by a suppressed and ferocious look: "Let me apologize to a mouse?"

He is one of the youngest earls in the Or Empire, and he will definitely sit in one of the seats in the Imperial Capital House of Representatives in the future. Being deprived of the front-line commander will only make the enemies in the empire laugh, but bowing to the rat people... will become a stain on his life and will be used to attack him.

"Don't even think about it!"

Annan looked at him indifferently: "I don't think you are so ignorant that you let the Supreme Thirteenth King take the blame for you and let the McKeon Ratman laugh at you...right?"

"You are very brave to let the nobles of the Or Empire apologize to a ratman?" Duke Kingsley said coldly.

"Duke Kingsley, you got one thing wrong." Annan looked at the "mountain" on the sofa and said elegantly, "This is not 'the nobles of the Or Empire apologize to the ratman' but 'the commander who made the wrong decision apologizes to the wronged soldiers'."

His eyes returned to Paige, who was livid: "This is not shameful, is it? Maybe the soldiers of the Or Empire will think that you love your soldiers like your own sons."

"Hehe..."

Duke Kingsley was obviously sneering, but there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes. He turned his head: "Paige, I have an appointment with the emperor to go to the Imperial Library, and your matter will be resolved as soon as possible."

Paige showed his struggle. He could refuse Annan's words, but he couldn't refuse the Duke... He raised his head and stared at Annan, as if he wanted to remember today's shame in his heart: "I, Earl Paige Soma, apologize to the soldier who was misunderstood by me!"

Annan ignored him, but deliberately looked out the window, staring at the direction of the cemetery: "Did you hear, Broken Tooth? No one can erase your heroic identity."

Knock knock--

Duke Kingsley knocked on the armrest with his thick knuckles: "The problem has been solved, let your soldiers withdraw from Hell Mountain, we will take over there."

"No need." Annan rejected him, "We will hold on until August 12 as agreed, but not for you, but for Middle-earth."

Even Annan's dull political sense could see that Duke Kingsley wanted to pick the peaches of Hell Mountain and save the image of this incident on the empire.

"Whatever you want." Duke Kingsley waved his hand, signaling the wizard to cancel the spell.

Staring at the mirror completely dissipated, the frustrated Annan slumped in his seat.

It would be a lie to say there was no pressure... The Duke of Kingsley was just sitting there, but he really brought huge pressure like a mountain.

Annan originally wanted to ask Paige to go to Liberty City to apologize, but was forced to change to a "light" apology.

Although it was still a great shame for him.

After recovering some of his mood, Annan stood up and took the magic stone to find Olmedo and Idyliya to tell them the details of the negotiation.

"Spread the news that Paige has apologized, and then tell the boy's family the result... This is all we can do for now."

Annan suddenly noticed that Olmedo was hesitant to speak: "What's wrong?"

"The little lord of Bogdan Feng Kingdom said that he didn't blame the commander and hoped that we would stop blaming him."

"Tsk..."

Annan felt sorry for Broken Tooth, even though this result was reasonable.

There was no reason for the little lord to offend the earl of the Or Empire for a ratman. Maybe he was still complaining - complaining why Annan had to make things clear.

In the final analysis, weakness is the original sin.

If Liberty City was one of the Thirteen Supreme Kings, would it still be like this?

Annan looked at them firmly: "I want to be the Thirteen Supreme Kings!"

Olmedo tilted his head slightly: "What king?"

"Thirteen Kings!"

"Twelve Kings of the North?"

"Thirteen Supreme Kings!"

Olmedo deliberately asked Idylia: "Are there any women among the Thirteen Supreme Kings?"

"The Crystal King and the Black Gold King are both queens. One of them is in Middle-earth and the other is in the South."

Olmedo and Idylia sang the same tune and mocked Annan.

Annan didn't bother to argue with them and ran out of the City Lord's Mansion with a red face.

He didn't know why he ran out, but when he stood outside the City Lord's Mansion, surrounded by a field of sunflowers as tall as himself, the gentle breeze and the warm sunset sprinkled on the still bustling streets, Annan felt sad.

I wonder how many soldiers will never come back after the war, and how many residents will lose their families?

In the evening, Annan opened the portal and sent another 500 foreign aid.

This is Broken Tooth's last gift to Free City... The people of Middle-earth are signing up again.

The Hellfire Camp is still holding out, like a reef in the waves... Fermi said that the main force of the ratmen has never appeared. After the first bell yesterday, the rat tide around Hell Mountain turned into a mixed rat tide.

The news of Paige's public apology also spread with the initiative of Free City. But Annan didn't focus on it.

In the morning, Annan attended the funerals of Broken Tooth and Lit.

Annan lost confidence in the lord who had never asked about his child, and simply buried the boy in the cemetery outside the Free City, and placed the stuffed bear that Cathy gave him in front of the tomb whose tombstone was smaller than the surrounding area.

"This is just the beginning..." Annan said softly.

Did Annan forgive them? No.

Someone has to pay the price for this blood feud. A dismissal and an apology are obviously not enough.

But when Annan wanted to develop dormantly, the crisis always came unexpectedly:

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Annan was shocked to find that he could not open the portal to Hell Mountain.

This usually means two possibilities: the heavy Wanma used as an anchor died, and there was no body left - or the place was blocked by magic.

"Or Empire!"

Annan instantly pointed the finger at the Or Empire, which had just had a conflict.

Olmedo felt that the empire should not be so petty, and sent people to inquire about the situation in the north, but it was too slow.

Dean Blechheim contacted his old friend and confirmed that the loss of contact with Hell Mountain had nothing to do with the Or Empire. It was the Skaven who used evil energy to control the entire Gray Mountain Range.

Except for the two northern walls, all the coalition forces lost contact.

"What is the response of the Tatun Empire and the Or Empire?"

"They said that the main force of the Skaven appeared at the Northern Wall and had no time to lend a helping hand."

Except for waiting anxiously, Annan seemed to have no other way.

The problems of the past two days all pointed to one problem: Liberty City is still too weak.

If Liberty City is strong, Annan does not need to worry about the war in the north.
