Chapter 206

Wegalla was a tough nut to cr ack.

This diplomatic visit hadn’t yielded any beneficial results, and as sat at the head of the table in the formal meeting room of Vlokwell’s palace, | wanted to slam my head into the pale white wood furniture

The voices of the diplomats in the room melded together, and the grating sound of their complaints and agitations was almost enough to make me want to leave this meeting entirely. For the most part. | didn’t mind being the king of Yurene. but at times like this, | loathed it entirely. The monarchy was full of trivial matters like these, and | hated any instance that pointed out my shortcomings.

As | sat there with my head pounding in agony from the sheer exhaustion of the trip, the diplomats complained about the shrewd councilors in Wegalla. Their glances often veered toward me while making their reports and justifying their failure to secure an agreement advantageous to our country.

As much as | regarded Asher Collins as weak, | had to admit that the Alpha King of Wegalla possessed talents fiir superior to these foolish diplomats. He was smart, cunning, and utterly brave when it came to the functions of his country. While he had not been trusting of me, | couldn’t blame him completely.

These diplomats, though | wanted to snap and remind them of their inadequacy, but instead. | considered that sometimes fools had their uses. Fools required nothing more than a little manipulation. They were easily manipulated, and if | wanted to be strategic and smart about my next steps. | needed to sway their minds
