Chapter 30: Expose and Criticize

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

No matter how passionate Alberta was, it did not make Archbishop Cameron happy.

After a short rest, Cameron began to speak, “I did not come here today to listen to what you have to say!”

“It’s because of what happened to Hall and why the Empire has become so dilapidated.”

“I already know everything that has happened!”

“What I want to hear the most now is how you are going to find excuses in front of me!”

“From now on, in half an hour’s time, if you are unable to successfully convince me, then I am sorry that you will become the first Emperor to be killed by the Archbishop today.”

Hearing this, Alberta’s expression darkened.

‘Heh, you are here to settle the score with me?’

“You’re just an Archbishop of a branch of the Holy Court. What right do you have to settle the score with me?”

“I’m now the Emperor of the Empire!”

But Alberta did not dare to say these words.

So he could only try his luck and asked, “regarding Hall, it’s all because of him!”

“Ninety-five percent of the magic power source in his body has been corroded by the Darkness!”

“But he didn’t commit suicide to salvage the situation. He even left the defence line of Tumala without permission, he left his post!”

“So, I first executed his family on the crime of being of the race of darkness!”

Hearing that Alberta didn’t blush after saying such shameless words, Cameron couldn’t help but applaud for him.

“You’re spouting nonsense with an innocent look on your face. I’ve never seen such a shameless person like you in all these years.”

“Continue, you still have 25 minutes!”

“Next is about the three cities within the Empire, Asuma, Gabi, and Bader. What was the purpose of your actions?”

“These three cities were already big cities with a population of a million people. I don’t need to describe what these cities have became under your leadership right?”

After saying that, Archbishop Cameron took a sip of the tea in his hand.

“I’m even more innocent regarding the happens in these three cities!”

“William and Alex, these two big families, control the entire lifeblood of Fergus in their hands.”

“Before I became the Emperor, I was still an Imperial Military Secretary. I didn’t give these orders, I merely executed them.”

“So in the end, I couldn’t stand it anymore. I killed Fergus Nielsen, this corrupt and incompetent ruler!”

“Then, I took control of half of the Empire!”

Before Alberta could finish speaking, the Archbishop clapped his hands.

More than half of these things were made up by him. The only ones that were true were the part on the William and Alex families.

Even if Alberta did not rise to the throne, these two families would still carry out the same order and the same thing would happen.

Seeing him explain so desperately, the Archbishop decided that this was not the time for him to be calculative. He would first stabilize the situation of the entire empire!

“Alright, your words have touched me!”

“I’ve decided not to be calculative about the past with you!”

“But from now on, William and Alex will no longer exist.”

“From now on, send your people to take over the two families!”

“I think by the time they reach there, the people of these two families will no longer exist.”

Originally, Archbishop Cameron wanted to personally manage the entire empire, but looking at the person in front of him, he still decided to treat Alberta as a puppet.

This way, he could control everything from behind the scene and not have to show his face in public. This way, he could avoid a lot of gossip.

After chatting, Cameron gave Alberta a necklace and helped him wear it around his neck.

The necklace was made of gold and gemstones from the outside. It looked very luxurious, and it went well with Alberta’s clothes.

However, it was just a life-threatening necklace. As long as one wore it, they would never be able to take it off.

Before Cameron left, he told him everything about the necklace. Then, he turned around and flew away with his knights.

After they left, Alberta regretfully threw the things in the room.

“Bastard! You old bastard, how dare you look down on me!”

“I can’t do anything to you now, but don’t be complacent. As long as I’m alive, I’ll think of a way to deal with you!”

After saying this, he went to arrange for his subordinates to takeover the two largest cities of the Fergus Empire.

Under the intervention of Archbishop Cameron, the entire Eastern residential area regained its stability.

All the soldiers from the two towns of William and Alex were not in a hurry to attack.

They were all training at the back of Bader City in an orderly manner, and each of them had weapons with light elements in their hands.

Of course, all of this could not escape Hall’s eyes, through the energy and magic circles on these weapons.

He understood why everything had become like this!

“Cameron? ! That man who used to be a little kid, has he become so powerful now?”

“But that’s not enough!”

“I’m your teacher. This line-up is far from enough to bring me down!”

This war had already lasted for a week at the Eastern defense line of Kejins City.

With the support of the offensive knights, their casualties had been reduced to 50,000 infantrymen per battle.

But even so, St. Mariga Duchy had lost 500,000 soldiers in this week.

They had killed less than 200,000 local soldiers. These Undead soldiers were only obtained after the Knights had entered the battlefield.

After understanding the situation on the battlefield, Queen Mavis began to come up with a new idea. She now had to think of a way for ordinary soldiers to kill the Undead easily.

Seeing Queen Mavis’ worried face in the room, the Sacred Knight Donald immediately asked, “Your Majesty, what do you need?”

“Maybe I can help you!”

Mavis looked up at Conrad and remembered the weapons and equipment on him. He immediately understood!

“I really need your help this time!”

After a whole conversation, Queen Mavis suddenly found the reason why she had been failing all this time.

It turned out that the Archbishop of the Holy Court had long known that humans could not kill the Undead easily. They had to use special weapons.

Because she had never fought against the Undead soldiers, Queen Mavis did not know about these things at all.

Coupled with the fact that these people had joined forces to hide it, she only discover this information so long after the war had started.

She could not help but sigh alone in the room. “Sigh!”

“If only Melissa was by my side!”

“As long as I let her take a look at the battlefield, I would be able to discover this problem as early as the second battle!”
