Back at the BHR command center as the majority of the battles came to a close, Dylan stood up to leave.
A woman asked him in confusion. "Your Highness, are you not going to watch them to the conclusion?"
"No, I have to prepare for the myriad of things to come: Backlash for those that died. Gratitude for those that were protected. And deals for those still interested in using Hiro as a weapon. Tell him I will pay him a visit soon."
Both Alan and Xing nodded in agreement. As the backlash about the assassinations could be shut down by the rule about legalized murder. The culmination of Dylan's warning and Heavenly Sword's performance would be the allies the prince would gain.
The tangible benefits would be the kingdoms that build relations afterwards. By protecting his allies, with the hound known as the Wolfen butcher many would seek Dylan's protection. Even just one of Hiro's subs could serve as guardian and there were eight aside from the butcher himself.
