I'll Come Clean! I Am The King Of Lolan!

Chapter 66 - A Presumptuous Request?

Chapter 66: A Presumptuous Request?

Abner originally sat at the side to watch everything unfold, but he did not expect Kyle to suddenly turn the tables on him.

The minister was instantly dumbfounded.

“Your Majesty, I am the highest head of the decision-making officials. My matter is even busier than Rosen and the others.

“It’s not that I don’t want to accompany you. It’s just that if it happens during a time that I’m busy, it seems that the operation of the palace would be on halt. I have the heart but not the strength to leave that.”

However, before Kyle could change his mind, Rosen immediately sat down and put his arm around Abner’s shoulder.

“Abner, I’m sure you’ll find the time to accompany the king. We will handle the matters in the palace for you first. If we are tired, so it shall be. It doesn’t matter.”

When Rosen said this, the other two old men quickly nodded to support him. Each of them patted their chests and said that they would definitely help to share the government affair burdens.

Abner was completely stunned.

When did these old men become so sneaky?!

Moreover, was Andrew not a very honest person before? How did he become a different person from what he remembered?

Was there a problem with his thought process? There must be a problem. Abner immediately fell into deep thought.

Before he could figure out the matter, Kyle had already made a decision.

“Abner, it’s up to you. Don’t feel pressure from what they’re saying.

“And this last question from the Spartans might not be that hard. Were that to happen, we won’t need to come to this small tavern.”

Abner immediately wanted to cry, but he had no tears. He really wanted to ask if the king truly meant what he said. However, he knew that this king was determined to drag someone along. Otherwise, he would not be able to withstand the huge firepower of venomous words from Lorne alone.

In addition, Rosen and the others were supporting him from the side, so he had no choice at all but to nod at Kyle.

“Since Your Majesty wishes me to go, then I shall go!”

After he agreed, only then did Kyle reveal a satisfied smile.

“Good, this is as expected of my right-hand man!”

…

When the two days agreed upon were up, just like last time, Kyle directly summoned a few emissaries into the palace.

However, there was no banquet at this time. Instead, seats were arranged in a meeting hall.

When Puye and the others arrived at the side hall according to the instructions of the servants and guards, Kyle and the others had already been waiting there.

“I, Puye, pay my respects to His Majesty, the King of the Lolan Empire!”

After Kyle waved his hand to signal Puye to get up, he went straight to the point and said, “I already have the answer to the second puzzle from your Spartan Country.

“And this answer, I have already ordered someone to draw it out for you. You will know once you take a look.”

As he spoke, he clapped his hands. A servant beside him immediately held the scroll with both hands and came in front of Puye.

This messenger carefully unfolded the scroll, and instantly, a picture of a person appeared in front of him.

The scroll was a picture of grassland. On this vast grassland, there stood five people, holding the flag of the Lolan Empire, looking at the toppling rock without changing their expressions.

Puye instantly raised his head.

“Does His Majesty think that the five people stayed and not a single sheep is left?”

Kyle nodded, then stood up with his hands behind his back.

“I’ll tell you today’s question personally.

“Five people and 500 sheep died in the grassland earthquake for five months in a row.

“Sheep are animals, and the nature of animals allows them to predict danger. When danger comes, they flee in all directions to save their lives no matter what circumstances they are in.

“The few people who care for the sheep alone will definitely not be able to stop the herd. Therefore, after five months, not a single one of the 500 sheep will be left!”

Puye performed a special etiquette unique to the country of Spencer to show his respect.

Kyle continued, “Previously, your problem was that you assumed that I sent an individual and ordered them to graze the sheep for a year.

“If it was someone from another country, then I wouldn’t dare to say anything. However, as long as they were a citizen of my Lolan Empire, I would ensure that not one of the five people would go missing.

“My people love me and strictly abide by the king’s orders. Unless the king changes his orders, they will never back down.

“Not to mention one person dying in an earthquake in a month, even if nine out of ten people died in a landslide, the remaining one will definitely stay there and complete the task given by me.

“This is the courage and loyalty of my people, and also the confidence that I have to give this answer today!”

In an instant, Puye felt his entire body tremble, and he gulped in amazement. After a long while, Puye directly knelt on the ground and bowed to Kyle.

“Respected King, please allow me to bow to you in such a manner. Your boldness is such a rare sight to behold in this world.

“To be able to have such confidence in your own country and your own people, I’m afraid that only the Lolan Empire has such confidence. I really admire you for that, no doubt.

“Before I left, the King of my country, Marcus, gave me an explanation. The answer he came up with was actually the same.

“He thinks that the people of Lolan are all peaceful and brave people. They are all men who act according to orders and will never cower or back down before the battle!”

When Kyle saw Puye’s respectful and subservient appearance, he could not help but feel his heart tremble.

If it were not for the words that Lorne had given him, he probably would not have been as confident in his people as he described.

If it were not for the help of such a talented person, he would have lost his highly status as the King of Lolan on this question.

After his mind churned, Kyle still revealed a hearty laugh in time.

“It seems that I have the same thoughts as your king.”

Puye immediately said respectfully, “That is indeed the case. The king yearns for the people of Lolan’s culture very much. He also admires the Lolan Empire, which has a vast territory and a vast population.

“The king hopes to meet you and have a chat with you one day.

“If I may, I have a presumptuous request.”

Kyle raised his hand.

“What request do you have? Do share.”

Puye raised the scroll in his hands.

“I request that Your Majesty grant me this painting so that I can bring it back to the kingdom for the Spartan King to admire.”

A light flashed in Kyle’s eyes and of course, said straightforwardly, “As you wish, this painting will be given to you. It can also be considered as a witness of the peace and friendship between our two countries!”

Puye immediately stepped down and asked someone to solemnly preserve the painting.

“Envoy Puye, two of the three problems have been solved. You may name the third problem..”
