nUpon hearing Kyle’s question, Puye immediately knelt on the ground and said solemnly, “Your Majesty, please allow me to be bold in asking this last question. Please answer it in person.”

n

nKyle was stunned for a moment. The civil and military officials also looked at Puye in surprise.

n

nWhat kind of trick was this? He actually appointed the king to answer the question.

n

nHowever, Kyle was not flustered at all. He had the guidance of an expert behind him. If the question was really difficult, he could at most find an excuse to sneak out during his break to ask Lorne.

n

nOn the contrary, he could not lose to this momentum. Otherwise, people would think that he, as a king, was uncultured and ignorant.

n

nTherefore, Kyle raised his right hand and said bluntly, “This makes me a little curious. What do you plan to ask for the third question? Just say it.”

n

nPuye bowed to Kyle again and then nodded at the ministers around him.

n

n“Your Majesty, I dare to ask if the Lolan Empire has the confidence to completely destroy the Bora Kingdom. If they have the confidence, how many years will it take?”

n

nAs soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the hall cried out in surprise.

n

nThen, the entire hall fell silent. Everyone looked at the messenger in great surprise.

n

nEven Kyle could not help but feel a little shocked.

n

nWhat in the world was this kind of question?

n

nAccording to the rules of the first two rounds, should they not continue to ask some intelligent question or a logical question with traps?

n

nHow could the third question be completely out of what was expected?

n

nThe key point was that this question was too straightforward. The messenger did not even try to hide it and directly asked how the King of Lolan could destroy another country within a few years.

n

nWas the Spartan King trying to pull a prank on the Lolan King?

n

nNo matter how the Lolan Empire answered this question, what happened in the hall today would not be kept a secret.

n

nThen, as the King of Lolan, the answer he gave would definitely spread throughout the world like a quickfire, until it reached the ears of the Bora people.

n

nThen, Kyle’s answer might instantly affect the situation in the surrounding countries and even cause the Bora people to make other moves in advance.

n

nThe King of Lolan suddenly understood the true purpose of the Spartan King, which was to speed up the bloody fight between the Lolan Empire and the Bora Kingdom.

n

nIn this way, the spartan Kingdom might be able to profit from it.

n

nA strange light flashed in Kyle’s eyes. It seemed that these highland barbarians were also talented people with power and wisdom.

n

nIt seemed that the man called Marcus was also an expert in playing tricks and schemes.

n

nPerhaps he had underestimated the Spartan Kingdom. This country on the highland might just be planning some kind of conspiracy being Kyle’s back.

n

nRight as Kyle was about to stand up and answer, Rosen suddenly spoke.

n

n“Envoy Puye, don’t you think that this question is too excessive?

n

n“Whether or not there is a war between the Lolan Empire and the Bora Kingdom, and what will happen next, these are our own matters.

n

n“I don’t think it has anything to do with the Spartan Kingdom. Aren’t you going a little too far with the questions now?

n

n“And there are so many eyes and ears watching us on such a formal occasion.

n

n“Yet you’re asking such a sensitive question. What’s your purpose? What’s the purpose of the Spartan Kingdom questioning this?”

n

nAlthough Rosen might be a little weak when it came to answering questions about intelligence, he was indeed good at such disputes in the palace.

n

nPuye was rendered speechless by the continuous barrage of words.

n

nRight as he finished speaking, Abner, who was another minister of Lolan, also spoke resolutely.

n

n“The Spartan Kingdom has made a sudden visit. Our Lolan Empire has used a friendly and kind attitude to warmly welcome your country’s diplomatic mission and has also conducted exchanges between the two countries with official state etiquette.

n

n“At least in this aspect, our Lolan Empire has done nothing wrong.

n

n“On the contrary, the Spartan Kingdom first raised questions that were ridiculous, and now you dare ask such a sensitive topic. In my opinion, your intentions are truly unfathomable!”

n

nExperiencing the anger of Rosen, Abner, and the other ministers, Puye’s face displayed an appropriate expression of fear and trepidation.

n

n“Please calm down, the two of you. This isn’t a deliberate provocation by our country, but the king wants to judge the attitude of the upper country based on the answers of the Lolan Empire.

n

n“Thus, we can then determine whether Lolan is worthy of being worshiped by our country as the suzerain.

n

n“To be honest, the three questions that I brought are completely used to judge whether the Lolan Empire is worthy of our country’s allegiance. There’s no other purpose.”

n

nRosen was about to say something, but he was interrupted by Kyle with a wave of his hand.

n

n“Even if you didn’t say it, I could roughly guess the meaning of your three questions. They are nothing more than wisdom, faith, and strength.”

n

nPuye quickly nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, afraid that Kyle would be dissatisfied with the final question.

n

nThen, Kyle stood up and stared at Puye with sharp eyes. He knew that Puye was sweating buckets from being watched, so he shifted his gaze elsewhere.

n

nWith his hands behind his back, Kyle continued in a clear voice, “I don’t care what the purpose of your country is, or what schemes and tricks are brewing behind it.

n

n“But since you dare to ask today, then I should only openly share with you my thoughts.

n

n“A mere Bora Kingdom is just a bunch of mobs, nothing more.

n

n“No matter how much I think about it, they are nothing more than bones in a grave. Sooner or later, I will dig them out and crush them with a kick.”

n

nKyle said something shocking on the spot, which shocked Rosen and the others.

n

n“Your Majesty…”

n

nHowever, before Abner could finish, Kyle waved his hand.

n

n“Ask me how many years I am confident in destroying the Bora Kingdom, and I can tell you clearly.

n

n“In less than three years, I will wipe out the entire Bora Kingdom and turn it into dust.”

n

nKyle’s voice boomed like thunder, instantly shocking all the civil and military ministers in the hall.

n

nSo this was the belief hidden in the king’s heart, and it was so straightforward with no hesitation at all.

n

nHowever, after the shock, Rosen and the others also sighed endlessly in their hearts.

n

nWhat the King of Lolan shared was also what they secretly wanted too.

n

nBack then, when the Kingdom of Bora launched a sneak attack on Lolan, they signed an alliance agreement. This humiliation was not only borne by Kyle alone, but also by the entire empire.

n

nThere were so many ministers and nobles in the entire palace. There was no one who did not disagree on wanting to take revenge on the Kingdom of Bora.

n

nTherefore, today, Kyle directly revealed his true intentions. It could also be considered as a precaution for Rosen and the others as well.

n

nThe people of Lolan including Puye were inexplicably excited now from this recent news.
