King Gawain I naturally didn't believe his eldest son's nonsense.
"I'm not dead yet; I can hold on for a few more years. Sorry to disappoint you! Now that you've seen me, you can go back."
King Gawain I waved impatiently, closed his eyes, and propped his head with one hand, looking like he wanted to rest.
He was used to his father's disdain. A flash of anger passed through his eyes, but he quickly regained a calm expression.
"Father, there's one more thing I want to discuss. It's regarding the Minister of Border Affairs!"
He wanted to see his father's attitude on this matter.
King Gawain I lazily opened his eyes upon hearing this.
Originally, King Gawain I had intended to recall Zedran, strip him of all his powers, and place him under arrest awaiting trial.
Yet, thinking about the lofty stance of the Sacred Mount, which often disregarded even him, the king, he hesitated.
Though the Sacred Mount had many experts, Zedran's forces were also extremely powerful.
It was hard to say who would win if it came to a fight.
The most crucial point was that if Zedran succeeded, it would bring great honor to Montiria, and his authority as king would be significantly strengthened.
Even if Zedran failed, he could be made the scapegoat, as the orders were not directly from the king.
"Aren't the troops dispatched by you? Why do you want to discuss?"
His tone suggested he didn't want to be bothered with the matter.
"Father, you misunderstand. The Minister of Border Affairs acted entirely on his own. I never issued any orders, so I'm asking for your guidance."
King Gawain I looked at his eldest son's serious expression and found it hard to believe he was lying.
Thinking of this, the king's expression instantly became complicated.
This old fool is really risking everything, betting his life to pave the way for his fourth son.
