Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1100: Crisis (4)

"This is..." The king of the Antwerp Kingdom had no choice but to speak up.

This was not a decision that could be accepted that easily by him or the ministers, so he had no choice but to speak up.

It was just that it didn't seem like the wyvern rider cared about his opinion.

Though Duke Nergiante had already expected this, he was also a bit surprised by this declaration.

After all, it had been a long time dream of his and his family to be able to do something like this. It was just that their Nergiante Dukedom had been too weak to actually do something like this.

But now...it has been achieved for them by someone else.

Duke Nergiante couldn't help feeling emotional over this, but he quickly calmed himself down before turning to look at the king... No, it was now the former king of the Antwerp Kingdom and the rest of the ministers.

The way that he looked at them, it was as if he was waiting for a response from them.

The former king and the ministers still had ugly looks on their faces, which became even uglier when they saw the way that Duke Nergiante looked at them.

So the former king said, "Sir wyvern rider, to surrender to the Nergiante Dukedom like this... Our Antwerp Kingdom has value that will surely benefit the Kite Kingdom, so it would be better for us to..."

He didn't even get to finish these words as the wyvern rider said, "Not interested. The Kite Kingdom is not interested in taking over the territory of the Antwerp Kingdom, so this is your only choice."

His voice turned a bit cold and he narrowed his eyes as he continued, "If you do not choose to accept this, then the only thing left for all of you is..."

A chill ran down the spines of the former king and the ministers when they heard this.

At the same time, looks of shock appeared on their faces.

After all, not a single one of them had expected the wyvern rider to speak with such a firm and -cold tone.

They thought that their Antwerp Kingdom would have some worth in the eyes of the Kite Kingdom, they didn't think that the Kite Kingdom would think so little of their Antwerp Kingdom that they would treat them like this.

It really made it so that they couldn't say a thing in response.

Duke Nergiante had acted the way that he did to provoke those from the Antwerp Kingdom. Seeing the way that they acted, he knew that it was time for him to say something.

Or rather, it was time for him to say the lines that he had been given.

"We don't need them either. We will be bringing in our own people to manage our new territories."

Perhaps Duke Nergiante wouldn't have dared to say this if it wasn't for the Kite Kingdom backing him like this. But since they were backing him with those wyverns, he naturally had the guts to say this.

After all, this was the best way for him to handle this situation.

If he were to keep the people from the old regime, there was no doubt that they would try to influence the new Nergiante Kingdom in some way. The best thing was to kick them all out and only use his own people since safety was the most important thing.

Even if it meant losing some talents, it was better to be safe than sorry.

When the former king and ministers all heard this, they all had even uglier expressions on their faces.

They thought that since they had surrendered peacefully, they would at least leave them something.

But it seemed that they had invited wolves into their homes.

The former king and ministers were about to say something, but the wyvern rider cut him off by saying with a nod, "Alright, that's not a problem. We'll exile them with some of their wealth and make sure that they won't be able to do anything to gain power again. If they do, then we'll be sure to execute anyone that tries anything."

The cold and firm tone that he said this in made the former king and minister swallow their words.

After all, the way that he said it made it clear that if they were to say anything against it, they might be executed on the spot.

This was a personal crisis at this point, it wasn't even a national crisis anymore.

There were a few of them that wanted to say something regardless, but they knew that there was nothing that would be gained if all that led to was their execution.

Once they were dead, it was all over.

Once they were dead, nothing mattered.

So the only thing that they could do now was hold their silence and see what would happen to them.

While they didn't know what they would be able to do once they were exiled, it was still better than the other option of being killed.

The former king and the ministers all had helpless looks on their faces.

As for fighting their way out...how could they do that with all these wyverns here?

The soldiers were already terrified, so there was no way that they would fight for them.

If it came to it, they might even lose their lives on the spot. freewebnσvel.cѳm

"Is this how the Antwerp Kingdom will end? We will be taken as slaves by the invaders?" The former king couldn't help thinking this to himself.

Seeing that they weren't going to make a fuss, the wyvern rider turned to the captain of the guard on the side and said, "Take them away."

The captain of the guard had complicated feelings about this order that he was given, but there was nothing that he could do in the end.

The former king and minister had already surrendered, so by all right, the wyvern riders were

the ones that were in charge now.

All they could do was follow orders.
