Chapter 399: 399
United Kingdom of Eagles .
It is a kingdom of three islands, with a large island in the middle at the heart of the country .
There is a huge kingdom at its center .
But the king's capital was now split in two .
The present King and the First Prince wanted to put William, the Second Prince, to blame for the defeat and to cease fighting the Empire with his neck .
However, hearted nobles and ministers opposed it, and the castle was the scene of heated arguments day and night .
Of the three sacred dragons that had protected the United Kingdom until now, two were destroyed by silver . The decline in military might is evident, except for the execution of William, who excelled in battle .
That was the opposition's opinion .
Meanwhile, the current king and the First Prince claimed that William had put personal friendship first, to the detriment of the national interest . The opposition opposes it .
It was the present king who decided to help Prince Gordon, and Prince William was against it . He went to the Imperial Capital because of the King's decree, and then fought with all his might for the United Kingdom .
If we execute such a prince, the United Kingdom's generals will turn their backs .
He was the current King and First Prince who wanted a truce with the Empire somehow, but he couldn't enforce the execution because the rebellion in his own country ended in a fall .
Therefore William was exhorted to be cautious in a small village a little away from King's Landing .
"Still can't decide . . . . "
Ha .
It was the Dragon Knight who came to deliver the news to William .
William, known as the Dragon Prince, has gained credibility from Dragon Knights throughout the United Kingdom .
Therefore, even with caution, there was no difficulty with the information .
If William doesn't move, the Dragon Knights will deliver it to William .
I thought the surveillance and escorts that should have been stopped were wrong, such as William being executed, so I took the initiative to invite the Dragon Knights .
Since his early teens, William has been on the front lines for the country .
During the war against the kingdom, William led the Dragon Knights to the end .
That allowed the British troops to retreat to the mainland . There were no soldiers who had forgotten that .
The army was entirely on William's side .
If William crosses the dragon, all Dragon Knights will support William .
But William didn't move yet .
I was cautious, as I was told .
"Your Highness, we are ready . The rest is up to His Highness . "
I see .
William answers small and says nothing else .
And he left his house with the Dragon Knight .
Besides William, there was Gordon's wife Bianca and Henrik, the empire's royal family .
They are both politically important positions and are thus restricted in their movements .
But Bianca's daughter wasn't there .
William entrusted it to his men on the verge of arriving in the United Kingdom .
Fortunately, Gordon's daughter wasn't widespread, so I didn't get suspicious .
"Is Henrik still inside?
"Ha, I can't get out yet . "
Henrik was by William's side during the retreat .
After that, it was a continuous struggle .
Of course . That was a defeat . There is no easy defeat .
Henrik went through a lot in it .
Henrik was therefore plugged in .
"Henrik? It's me . I'm coming in . "
William enters the room after knocking as a courtesy .
But soon William abandoned his manners .
Henrik had a piece of glass in his room .

The tip was towards my throat .
"What are you doing!?
William played the glass aggressively .
I cut my hand lightly at that time, but William doesn't care .
" . . . please let me die . . . "
"Don't be stupid! What happens when you die!?
"If I die . . . Prince William may be saved . . . if I give my head to the Empire . . . "
"Idiot! Do you really think it's worth it on your neck!? Even if the emperor turned his back, he would be happy to see his son's head!? We just grease the fire!
"So . . . what do you want me to do!?
"Live! Live and atone for your sins! I can't stand feeling guilty and I won't let you die!
"That's not true . . . . . "
Henrik burst into tears .
I already hated everything . I wanted to disappear from the world like this .
Henrik had a lot of experience during the retreat .
The wounded soldiers were falling apart .
Henrik was dying of hunger and thirst . Originally raised safely in the castle . It was impossible to endure Henrik without knowing the hardships .
I was able to get here safely because the people around me helped me .
I didn't save him because he was an Empire prince . It wasn't William's order either .
I just wanted to help, so the soldiers around me helped Henrik .
Carrying the fallen Henrik alternately, the soldiers made it to the ship safely .
It was Henrik alive, but from there it was Hell .
Henrik looked down on the lives of soldiers somewhere because of ignorance .
I thought and handled it like a token on the board . So I was abandoned lightly .

But I noticed .
Soldiers who treat them like such tokens are one person, and it is a natural fact that they also have families .
Thousands of soldiers died . Thousands of families fell into grief .
Oddly enough, Henrik lost his family .
Gordon made a stop raid to get us out of here .
Henrik retreated as he watched .
What I felt at that time was absolute pain .
The pain has been inflicted on many families .
Regret struck Henrik, and the sense of sin came late .
"I don't . . . better die . . . !
"If you want to die, you can die . But I will not allow you to die without doing anything . "
"What can I do!? The royal family that killed so many soldiers on the battlefield can't solve anything at the cost of their lives! What can you do!?
"I don't know what I can do without trying . What did you do?
"I . . . . "
"All you did was plug in and tell yourself that you can't do anything . You're going to die without making amends? Don't you see how stupid that is?
" . . . redemption . . . what should I do . . . "
It is not permissible to live like this .
I'm going to hear a voice of resentment .
Live with death in mind . I get distracted by the endless journey .
But William never tolerated suicide .
"Someday . . . you can be proud of your dead soldiers . . . No matter how far they go, they're dead . Even if it was your mistake, they were dead . They are no longer followed . You take the next step instead . Carry everything and save the lives you've killed . "
"I'm not as strong as you . . . . !
"Neither am I . . . strong . Even in this situation, I'm still worried . . . . "
"Eh . . . ?
" . . . Gordon left me to protect my family . I've been thinking about the meaning . Wife and daughter, and you . You mean to protect the three of us? Then let him escape . But more broadly… I have to fight my family for my friends' family . Is that permissible? I've been thinking about what's right . . . "
But the answer came .
That's how William grabbed Henrik's arm and got him up .
And then . . .
"You can only continue to walk with the living . I'll do what I can to make amends for you . Whatever happened . . . the army I led lost . The dead died because of me . "
"Ah, you're not! Protected a lot of people!
"That's war . I followed my instructions and lost . They have the right to blame me . But I won't die . For friends, for scattered men, for this country . Walk the best path . "
When William went out, there was Roger .
Fully armed in armor .
"Your Highness is late . . . so I'm here to pick you up . "
"Thank you . . . I was just about to fly . "
"That's good . We're all waiting for you . "
That's how Roger looked up at the sky .
Countless Dragon Knights were idle there .
Henrik is lost in the sight .
I've never seen such an army of dragon knights .
"Henrik, let's think about your redemption together . But I have something to do . Wait a minute . "
"Prince William . . . . "
"I will not betray my friend . As the last word said, I will protect my friends' family . "
William crossed the dragon and went up into the sky .
And when he received the spear from Roger, he shook the spear and issued a signal .
All troops forward! Target is King's Landing! Take the king's head off!
