Chapter 1034 577: Prince Luce, My Lord, I Swear To You With My Soul That The Holy Church Empire Will Always Be At Your Command [2/2]
Every archduke had a network of connections within the empire.
They were often in a leading position in these networks. Once they stood out, those forces on the same boat would also become the third prince's supporters.
Vale subconsciously turned to Richard when he heard this.
Excitement filled his heart.
Worried initially engulfed him. The Third Prince couldn't turn the tables with his reputation.
However, he did not expect that the other party had already obtained the support of four vital soul-strapping people.
The Third Prince wasn't mighty. Of course, this was because of his lord, Sir Richard.
He alone could convince the Grand Duke of Frostwolf and Chairman Windsor to support the Third Prince.
"Why don't we try persuading someone else?"
Windsor finished speaking. She seemed to have thought of something, and her voice sounded deeper.
"On the surface, the Holy Church Empire's royal family cooperates with the Sun Sect. But they secretly maintain an unclear relationship with a certain evil god in the bottomless abyss."
"We will have to wait until the ancient laws are activated and one strips away the authority of the gods if we want to support the new king to ascend to the throne."
Her gaze turned solemn as she spoke.
"We do need to control an empire."
Richard understood when he heard this.
Windsor must have had similar thoughts as him before. Otherwise, why would the three archdukes suddenly appear?
The sky was dark when Richard left the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce.
Two bright moons also quietly rose into the sky.
Windsor stood before the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the city. Stars lit the metropolis up. There was an inexplicable look in her eyes.
"What I saw in the future shard was that you died. But I didn't tell the part you stood before of me…"
"New Era…"
She let out a long sigh and slowly closed her deep eyes.
"No matter what, I won't let anything happen to you."

The carriage drove into Violet Manor and stopped outside the main hall.
A maid emerged from the carriage and came to report.
The Third Prince Luce had arrived in the morning when he left. He had waited in the hall for an entire day.
Richard chuckled.
He strode in.
Vale followed suit. After entering the hall, He looked at the Third Prince when he entered the hall. The prince appeared a little haggard. His expression was subtle.
At this moment, the other party still did not know one had decided his fate.
A prince whom the people looked down on and did not even treat him as a human. This oppressed prince would ascend to the throne under countless shocked and incredulous gazes!
The Holy Church Empire was about to welcome their new king!
Prince Luce saw Richard. All of his anxiety, worry, and uneasiness all disappeared.
He walked forward with a determined gaze.
He knelt down before Richard and pressed his head against the ground. His gesture surprised the maid.
He greeted Richard most humbly. He loudly said, "Lord Richard, Luce swears on his soul that he will be loyal to you forever. The Holy Church Empire will also be under your command forever!"
Richard's lips curled up at the sight.
This game got increasingly exciting.

April 10th.
Frost Wolf City was a city-state ruled by the Frostwolf Family in the Ice Snow Empire.
A group of over three thousand cavalry riding on frost warhorses crossed the city gate with a murderous aura.
The leader wore white armor and held a sharp sword in his hand.
Her beautiful hair fluttered in the cold wind.
