Chapter 915: Super charisma
The camp was much bigger than expected, but it also seemed a bit messy.
Though it was a strange kind of messy...
The reason it was messy was because there were different kinds of tents that were scattered all over the place. It was as if these tents all came from different places rather than from a single place.
It was as if it was a big mix of random things rather than one unified camp.
Which was why it seemed messy.
This was accentuated even further when one looked closely at the armour that the soldiers were wearing.
They all seemed to have different designs, as if they all came from different places.
It made the army seem like a hastily gathered army rather than a proper army.
But that didn't mean that they were sloppy.
Even though they seemed messy because of the different equipment that they had, they still acted like a proper army. It was clear that these soldiers had all been well trained and had experienced combat before.
Once we arrived at the center of the camp where the main tent was, the second prince immediately came out to greet us.
At the same time, there were many people in different styles of armour that came over to the main tent.
These people seemed like they were commanders with the style of armour that they wore.
These were sets of armour that clearly were not cheap.
They were sets of armour that had been custom ordered and made for these people, so there was no doubt that they were very special.
As such, these people shouldn't be normal people.
If one had to guess, they were most likely nobles of the Midra Kingdom.
Realizing this, I started to have an idea of how the second prince had gathered this large army.
Even if there was a royal army, a national army, and many knight orders, there were still many nobles all around the kingdom that had troops under them.
These were small amounts of troops compared to the armies and knight orders, but added together....it was a ridiculous amount of troops. It was just because they were so scattered around the country that they were usually ignored.
But now the second prince had gathered them all to form this large army like this.
If anything, this was a show of just how much charisma the second prince had that he was able
to convince all of them to bring their soldiers here like this.
After all, it wasn't anything simple that they were getting involved in.
This was a coup against the royal family.
This was not an easy decision for these smaller nobles that lived across the country.
Just a single wrong move would mean death for not just them, but their entire family.
So this wasn't a decision that could be made that easily.
Once the second prince brought us into the main tent, he started introducing everyone to me.
As expected, these were nobles from all over the country.
They didn't really know why the second prince was introducing me to them, but they still went along with it.
It seemed that they respected the second prince to such an extent that they didn't ask questions when they were doubtful of something. There was clearly something that was almost abnormal about the way that they trusted the second prince.
I didn't really know what it was, but it didn't seem like it was something that would be easy to figure out either.
For now, I just chose to ignore it and see what else the second prince had in mind.
Once he finished introducing the various nobles to me, the second prince said, "We will now head to the palace and depose of my father. I hope that you and your group will come with me for what comes after."
The way that he said this made it very clear what he was planning to do, but it also seemed a bit too simple with the way that he said it.
Going to the palace, was it really that easy?
Well, it was a bit easier since there were the wyverns that would allow them to head right to the castle, but...
It didn't seem like the royal guards that were there would allow the second prince in that easily.
It was just that the way that the second prince said this was almost as if he was already confident that this would turn out the way that he wanted this to turn out. It was as if he could see them just letting him enter the castle without a single fight.
This didn't seem like a normal level of confidence that the second prince had.
It was as if there was something that was backing this confidence that I didn't know about.
But it also didn't seem like there was anyone that was planning on stopping him. Just where was he getting this confidence from?
The second prince didn't seem to wait as he left the tent and waved for us to follow him.
We couldn't do anything other than follow him since he was the one that was leading everyone here.
It didn't seem like any of the various nobles that were gathered here seemed like they were planning on stopping the second prince.
It was almost as if this was what they were waiting for with the way that they went along with
it.
No matter how I looked at it, this seemed like a trap...
It was almost as if we were being led into some kind of ambush...
But was there anything that they could do against a hundred wyverns like this?
Even if they had their own wyverns, the second prince should know that I would have done something to the ten wyverns just in case he betrayed me.
So a smart person like him should know not to trust these wyverns to turn against me.
I just couldn't understand what the second prince was thinking...
It just never crossed my mind that he might have really surrendered...
