The Regressed Mercenary's Machinations

Chapter 486

"What do you mean, take you with me? Why would I do that?"

Porisco stared at Ghislain in shock. Ghislain, as calm as ever, replied,

"I’d like to meet His Majesty."

"Then why don’t you ask Marquis Branford? Why come to me for this?"

"He said it’s not possible right now."

"No, absolutely not. If I take you, that’ll be the day His Majesty passes away."

Porisco, desperate, tried to reason with him.

"Look, I hate to say it, but His Majesty is practically a corpse. He has no real power left. There’s no reason for you to meet him. Why are you even so insistent about this?"

"I just have a few questions for him," Ghislain said casually.

It was clear that the Ducal Faction’s obsession with the royal family wasn’t just about winning the war. Their true goal seemed to lie elsewhere.

However, nobody knew why they’d started the conflict in the first place. Not even Marquis Branford had an answer. Everyone assumed they simply wanted to seize the kingdom, but Ghislain suspected there was a deeper reason.

He wanted to find out if the king knew anything. And, while he was at it, he hoped to ask about the Shadow Knights.
