"Marshal, we just received news from our territories that the major nobles in the coastal provinces have each signed peace treaties with the Ghost Ships.
However, somehow the news was leaked out. Jacob worries that this might lead to a media storm..."
The military has its own rules. From the formation of the Expeditionary Army, in this place, Hudson is known by only one title—Marshal.
Upon hearing Jose's report, Hudson's lips curved into a slight smile. The leak was inevitable. If the news hadn't spread, how could merchants dare to sail?
Such an incident would definitely spark a media storm. The Clergy, having suffered such a significant blow, would surely seize the opportunity to vent their pent-up frustrations.
It was precisely because this was anticipated that the ones who signed the contract with the Ghost King were the major nobles, not the Alpha Kingdom.
