The Opposition Arrives

–The Capital City, Baymard, Pyno–

.

6 A.M.

A broad-shouldered man sat on the balcony within his hotel room, having an early cup of tea in his ancient robe, while reading a newspaper and watching the many bubbling and buzzing Baymardians move up and about.

And standing alongside himself were a few of his guards, watching over him.

The man dawned a grim expression, reading the news on the papers.

[Rolnad Council arrives for the big meeting! Are they for or against women?]

[Is Baymard wrong? Will the world truly end because of their involvement?]

[Witness interviewed: The Rolnad Council is talking nonsense!]

[Rolnad supporter interviewed: Baymard will be the end of us all!]

…

The man read the papers, seeing the many talks about today’s matter.

Of course, this person was none other than Council leader Gillard from the Rolnad Council.

This council was a Deifer Council that had recently been at war with Henry and everyone else.

In particular, they were angered by Baymard’s nonsensical and nosy theorems that had made things difficult for them over time.

It was funny because though they hated Baymard, they appreciated almost everything else it had to offer, with some even coming to the clinic and hospitals in secret just to treat their sons, daughters, wives or even themselves.

However, when it clashed with their hidden interests, they were very much opposed to these bastard Baymardians.

Of course, Baymard wasn’t a tyrant, allowing for opposition parties and meetings to be heard concerning the matter… Especially when it involves the general Pyno public.

Make no mistake!

For the council to remain active meant that they had a strong following. And the attitude and actions of those followers had caused harm to many others.

Look!… It was okay to believe in what you want to think and do those things to yourself or those in your group… But why drag others into this?

Sacrifices and many other barbaric rituals involving kidnapping, rape, throwing babies away, and so on, was something they would never stand for.

Oh… So it was okay to do it to others but not to do it to yourself and your family?

In many cases, they never dated to injure or harm themselves or their loved ones, only using others as guinea pigs. In that case, if they truly believed in what they were doing, shouldn’t they lead the way and show how it’s done?

Heh… They were just a bunch of hypocrites!

.

Boom!

Gillard slammed his fist on the table, reading the very controversial highlights on the paper.

Some stood for the Pyno leaders, while others stood for the Roldan Deifer Council.

The guards standing on the side also wore terrible expressions too.

“Leader! These people are just too much! What do they mean by writing all this jargon?”

It was ironic that these people were angered because the newspaper also had controversy about Pyno’s decision by showing interviews involving both Rolnad and Pyno supporters.

However, these people refused to see this, only feeling that they were being bullied.

Dammit!

What do these Pyno supporters mean? How dare they question their Council?

Gillard squeezed the paper as though he were strangling a person.

He closed his eyes for a bit, thinking deeply.

“Copher!”

“Yes, leader,” replied one of the knights now on one-bended knee.

“Get the other council members… Soon, it’ll be time for the so-called meeting. I’d like to see how a woman would be able to go toe to toe with us!”

Copher obeyed while sneering at the thought of today’s meeting.

That’s right. The person spearheading this was none other than Queen Lucy. And this alone irked him whole.

But it wasn’t just him because when the other council members arrived, they too wore distorted expressions on their faces.

.

“Leader! When have we ever been insulted like this? Yes! Our council does have a section for women to handle women’s matters. However, even at that, the women don’t make the decisions. We are the heads, sending out decisions for them to carry! So when have we ever been on an equal footing with women?”

“That’s right!” The long-bearded Maximus added: “Leader, how can we talk about important issues such as these with a woman?”

“Yes! Women, especially the Queens, are supposed to be overseeing the Harams, focusing on holding tea parties, poetry gatherings and little things of that nature. Ministers and all other important men are the only ones who are supposed to be in the court or in the presence of any important decision-making that involves an entire empire! So what is this? Why don’t I understand how these people’s heads work?”

“Yeah!… They say his majesty Landon is out. Then in that case, isn’t King-Father Lucius available? What about the other government officials? Aren’t they available as well? From what we gathered, they should all be there, attending the meeting. But if that’s the case, why are they allowing a woman to spearhead the whole thing? Or could it be that they look down on us too much and are using this to insult us?”

The more Gillard and the rest thought about it, the more they felt it to be true.

In short, the other monarchs should’ve also joined in to press their heads in this manner, all in hopes of belittling and insulting them, right?

Gillard squinted his eyes dangerously: “Good… Good… What a good Pyno!”

With immediate effect, everyone rounded up, discussing the matter and making plans to counterattack at any given turn.

The battle they would engage in was not an easy feat.

However, with the material they planned to show for today, they were confident that they would bring everyone in Pyno towards the right path.

And soon, they got a call from below.

.

Ring

[“Good morning, sir Gillard… The delegation has sent your limos as scheduled.”]

“Hmm.”

Gillard briefly looked out the window before grabbing his coat.

With that, the entire gang headed down to the ground floor.

… Alright.

It was time to enter the Battlefield!
