Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor-Chapter 633 - 306: White Wolf’s Request (Part 2)
"Perhaps it's for fear that the Eldest Princess, after ascending the throne, might harm her child."
Luo De shook his head slightly, "But is the Duke of Flowers more trustworthy? I don't really know the specifics."
As Luo De finished speaking, everyone in the lord's hall fell silent.
Gang Le looked around and then at Luo De, lowered his voice and asked, "Sir, who should we support?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone quickly looked up at Luo De.
The Empire is in turmoil, a three-way stalemate.
If we choose correctly, then when the monarch we pledge loyalty to ascends the throne, even if we can't become dukes, we can become marquises.
But if we choose wrongly, it could be a disaster.
"No matter how you choose, we support your choice."
Durant understood the psychological pressure of such a choice and didn't want to see Luo De in difficulty, so he spoke up,
"We will follow in your footsteps, swearing loyalty to you unto death!"
"Swear loyalty unto death!"
The others echoed loudly at the same time.
Luo De's gaze swept over everyone, nodding incessantly.
Then, he took a deep breath and calmly spoke,
"We support no one."
Luo De's face revealed a mysterious smile,
"We at Black Pine Ridge have an heir with a purer lineage."
Everyone looked somewhat confused, unable to resist turning to look at those beside them.
Gang Le stared at Luo De and carefully asked, "You're not the Emperor's illegitimate child, are you?"
Gang Le's words instantly piqued everyone's interest.
Everyone stared intently at Luo De, their eyes burning with curiosity.
"You're overthinking it."
Luo De picked up a teacup, slightly speechless, and took a couple of sips of tea.
"Knock, knock, knock."
The large door of the hall was knocked.
"Gang Le, go bring in the person."
Luo De ordered, "Our protagonist should have arrived."
Gang Le nodded confusedly, pushed back his chair, and quickly rushed out.
The heavy iron door opened, and the figure of the White Wolf slowly walked in.
Luo De stood up and said to everyone, "This is our imperial heir, His Majesty Agnar's younger brother, Count Ola."
The lord's hall instantly fell into dead silence.
Gang Le's hand, which was about to close the door, froze in place, feeling like his brain was about to explode.
In this moment, he'd already received two or three heart-stopping pieces of news.
"Sir, I'm not questioning you, huh."
Gang Le looked at the towering white wolf next to him, hesitantly saying, "Even though the White Wolf can talk, how could he possibly be Count Ola?"
Luo De glanced at the White Wolf, smiling as he asked, "Shall I tell your story?"
The wolf's head nodded slightly up and down.
Luo De turned back and recounted the tale of his encounter with the White Wolf and the White Wolf's story to everyone present.
Once again, they were left speechless by the shocking revelation.
However, it had been quite an eventful day, so everyone was somewhat becoming desensitized.
"We believe your story,"
Durant hesitantly spoke, "but it's so incredibly strange that no one will believe it."
"Moreover, given Count Ola's current appearance, no one will support us."
"So do you have any plans?" Durant asked.
"I do indeed."
Luo De looked at the White Wolf,
"I've discussed with Avril, and we plan to restore the White Wolf to Count Ola's form."
Saying this, Luo De withdrew his gaze and looked at everyone,
"Thus, I now need all of you to immediately gather the troops and inventory military supplies and food."
"Next, Black Pine Ridge will be facing war."
"Yes, Lord!"
Everyone responded loudly in unison, their eyes filled with anticipation!
Present were all the key figures of Black Pine Ridge, fully aware of their current power.
Despite having many excellent soldiers, they've been forced to stay docile at Black Pine Ridge due to the Empire's decree, which has been downright frustrating.
Now that the Emperor has fallen, the previous decrees are null and the command barring attacks on other lords has also been lifted.
More importantly, the presence of Count Ola justifies everything so perfectly!
...
...
Everyone left the hall in excitement to prepare the necessary items.
Gang Le and Chris were to assist Durant in equipping the army with all necessary supplies.
Rein was responsible for procuring supplies for the Hunting Team, including a sufficient quantity of bows and arrows.
Seronie went to help Lawrence prepare enough grain and baggage.
Luo De watched as everyone left, leaving only Vivian, Avril, and the White Wolf in the hall.
After the door shut, Luo De turned to the White Wolf,
"Actually..."
"Lord Rod..."
Luo De and the White Wolf spoke simultaneously.
"You go first, Count Ola." Luo De sat back down in the main seat.
The White Wolf took a deep breath, tried jumping onto a chair to sit, but found the narrow seat unable to accommodate his hindquarters and back legs.
"You can sit on the table," Luo De reminded.
The White Wolf nodded slightly, jumping onto the table and settling down.
Gazing at the teacup on the table, he couldn't help but sigh, "I'm no longer accustomed to human life."
Finishing his words, the White Wolf looked up at Luo De,
"I've finished reading the letters you gave me, and I can go ahead as you suggested to claim the throne."
The White Wolf spoke wistfully, "But I hope you can fulfill two conditions for me."
"Of course, you've fought alongside me so many times, even without this matter, I would strive to meet your requests."
Luo De nodded without hesitation, "Go ahead."
"If we're fortunate enough to succeed, and I become Emperor,"
The White Wolf's eyes gleamed with sincerity, "I want to pass the throne to you, for you to control the entire Empire, rather than just being the Empire's guardian."
The White Wolf continued without pausing,
