--The Gracio-Dero 4 Star Hotel, Baymard--


    .


    "Young master.... I don’t get it.


    Why doesn’t his majesty Landon make a move on that Tyrant?" Collins asked, while looking at his master confusedly.


    If it were him and his enemy had shown up for a meeting with him... he wouldn’t miss the opportunity to slit his enemy’s throat.


    But what did this Landon guy do?


    He literally went for the meeting, looked at his enemy right in the eye, and let his enemy walk away just like that.


    Why?


    .


    "Young master.... what is he nning?" Collins asked, while scratching his head tirelessly.


    "It’s simple..... he’s nning nothing." William’s replied... and he was right.


    Landon was a very principled person, who would only dish out punishment based on what one did to him.


    .


    To put it simply, Alec hadn’t tried to attack or kill him yet while staying HERE... so why should he kill the man without any crimes?


    One had to know that no matter how much he hated Alec, he couldn’t just kill him without any justifiable crimes and evidence.


    And he sure as hell wasn’t going to set up some sort of trial just to execute Alec.


    Because if he were to do so.... then what would be the difference between himself and Alec?


    .


    In short, if he did so.... many people around the Pyno continent would see him as a tyrant which was something that he didn’t want to be known for.


    People would now think that he was a scheming king who had killed Alec unreasonably just to take over Arcadina.


    Even if Alec deserved to die, if it was no real crime or evidence to anything.... then it would all be for naught, as the people would definitely have fear for him instead.


    .


    Knowing all this, he didn’t want Baymard to turn into Arcadina’s Capital city..... were most peasants live in fear of their ruler, just because they were too scared of his bloodthirsty nature.


    In addition to that, he also didn’t want the visitors to also fearing here anymore.


    .


    And when one really analyzed everything, Alec had never sent men to kill or torture him..... so just waking up one day and pinning a fake crime on the man just to execute him was something that Landon would never do.


    Bottom line, he would never make the first move to scheme over anyone.


    But if he were to be attacked, insulted or maltreated.... then he would give his enemies hell depending on their crime.


    .


    One should know that even back on earth, take for example the case with North Korea and the U.S.


    If Trump said that he didn’t like Kim Jong Un... did that give them the right to just kill the dude if he ever came to the U.S?


    Nope!


    There were rules andws of diplomacy at work here.


    So unless it were a crime with evidence against humanity, one just had to swallow their anger and deal with these issues strategically instead.


    .


    Plus, the system would immediately vaporized him if he were to scheme and pin a fake crime on anyone..... just so that he could kill themter on.


    And that was why the whole court trial system was also made up here.


    Anyway... just because Landon couldn’t do it, didn’t mean that others wouldn’t want his head while he stayed here in Baymard.

    --District G, Central Region, Baymard--


    .


    A tall man with a scarf wrapped around his head swiftly blended in with the busy crowd, as he diligently made his way towards one of the regr hotels there.


    Walking into the building, he quickly informed the front receptionist about his arrival.... and was immediately ushered towards one of the rooms there.


    .


    Today, Connor was going to see his own hidden guards down at one of the local hotels for ordinary people.


    District D within the upper region had hotel’s that catered for wealthy people who liked the luxurious lifestyle.


    While District G on the other hand , catered mostly for the peasants and those visitors who earned very low ies as well.


    .


    "Wee Your highness!" Bellowed 5 men, who were currently on one bended-knee before their master in respect.


    "At ease men!" Connor said, while taking a seat on the massive green cushioned couch at the center of the living room.


    Once he sat, someone quickly gave him a cup of water hastily..... while also ordering for food from the hotel as well.


    Connor calmly crossed his legs, while taking a sip from his cup.


    ’Siiiiirrrrrrpppppp!’


    "Boys..... there’ been a change of ns."


    "Your highness what do you mean?"


    The men asked while looking at each other in confusion.


    Connor looked at his men and smiled.


    Right now, he lookedpletely different from the tamed version that he had always shown.


    Right now, he looked like an unhinged beast, who was currently stalking his prey stealthily.


    .


    "Boys....it’s Simple.


    Our ns have changed, and we will no longer need sir Nopline’s help anymore.


    So here’s the new n instead....."


    "_"


    .


    As the men spoke, Connor couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.... as he thought about Nopline.


    Several months back, he had requested for Nopline’s help in taking down Alec.... in exchange for 1/5 of Arcadina’s yearly wages.


    Nopline had agreed to this deal..... but on the condition that he kept a look out for one Landon obley guy.


    .


    To Connor, it was near impossible to find out this person.... as the name Landon was asmon as the name Arthur.


    There were hundreds.... if not thousands of people with the name Landon.


    Heck!....even his bastard brother was called Landon as well, so he really had no idea on how to get on with his search.


    .


    And to make matters worse, this Landon guy was supposed to be a peasant as well.


    So with so many peasants around Arcadina, how was he supposed to keep a lookout for anyone with that name?


    He had been searching for this Landon fellow for several months now.... and so far he couldn’t find even a shadow of thishit.


    Hence he felt like this Landon guy wouldn’t most likely be within another empire instead..... but would be in other empires within the Pyno continent.


    .


    Anyway.... after having an audience with Landon and the rest of his family, he had immediately decided to change his ns moving forward.


    Initially, he had nned to kill Alec on his journey back to the Capital


    But who would’ve known that Alec would prove to be so useful now?


    If he let Alec deal with Landon .... then wouldn’t it be easier to deal with this matter altogether?


    Yup.... his n was for Alec to utilize all of his hidden armies for this task.


    And of course when Alec was sessful, then and only then would he dare to make his move.


    .


    In addition, Connor wasn’t sure how that he had enough manpower to take down Baymard.


    So in a way, he was using Alec to do his dirty work first.


    Alec had thousands of knights secretly hidden away somewhere within Arcadina.


    So he knew that if Alec made a move, it would definitely be a done deal.


    .


    Hehehehe... this was great!!


    Soon, he would get Baymard in his own grasps.


    But for now.... it was time to go to court!!
