"General Stanley, are you a general of the Azure Royal Family or a general of the Azure people?"
Leslie's questioning voice echoed, and Stanley felt a wave of confusion.
As a soldier, he had always fought to protect the people of the border.
This commitment was ingrained in him.
He had come to the imperial capital to demand an explanation from Owen and Leslie because their rebellion had caused turmoil in the once-stable Azure Kingdom!
Now, as Leslie had said, under her rule, there had been no major unrest in the capital or elsewhere.
The real casualties and disruptions affected mostly the noble families.
Additionally, Chief Elder Otto and the Council of Elders were eliminated and destroyed by Owen. The Azure Kingdom would soon return to peace, only with a new empress in charge...
As various thoughts and emotions surged in Stanley's mind, Leslie noticed his inner wavering and waved her hand to the back.
