Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 2004: Chapter 1125 Lawrence’s Allegiance_2

To be aware, from a young age, I have always held suspicion and a cautious attitude towards this neutral organization that was too close to the Royal Family.

Sometimes, I even suspected that the reason William eventually wore the Saint King’s crown was due to the immense covert support provided by the Temple of Light from the beginning!

Now, having lost my entire fleet, not only have I escaped any lethal consequences, but I also have the hope of achieving my youthful dreams—this is absolutely unbelievable, like a dream!

Everything changed because I encountered this enigmatic young man from the Otherworld standing before me!

Amidst the excitement in my heart, Lawrence’s invigorated old face revealed a smidge of uncertainty as he anxiously said to Leo Ray, “Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion, are you sure you truly want to help me ascend the throne?”

“The Grim Royal Family is extensive and flourishing, and though Prince Viceroy is a good candidate, he is not the only choice.”

Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and said calmly, “I trust Your Highness understands my meaning, yes?”

“Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion not only did not look down on me, a defeated general, leaving me alive, but also provided me the opportunity to fulfill my lifelong dreams and aspirations, reigniting my long-lost passion and fervor.”

Lawrence’s old eyes were full of gratitude as he sincerely said, “The most crucial thing is, Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion is even considering the citizens of the Grimm Kingdom, which renders me, a Royal Family Member, utterly ashamed. With such supreme grace, what other choice do I have but to pledge my life in devotion at not the Prince’s, but my Lord’s feet?”

Having said this, Lawrence without any hesitation knelt in front of Leo Ray, solemnly declaring, “Subordinate Lawrence Viceroy pledges to serve my Lord with utmost loyalty!”

“Then let us begin the contract signing.”

Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction and took out the freshly upgraded Tier 4 Recruitment Order.

It wasn’t long before a familiar prompting voice rang in Leo Ray’s ear.

[Congratulations, Nine Star Water Flow Great Mage Lawrence Viceroy, has signed a Master-Servant Contract with you, becoming your new subordinate!]

“Having chosen to be loyal to me, I shall certainly not disappoint you.”

Leo Ray slightly bowed his head, helping the other up while opening the other’s Attribute Column.

[Name: Lawrence]

[Occupation: Water Flow Great Mage]

[Rank: Tier 4 Nine-Star]

[Loyalty: 100]

[Skill One: Sea Dragon’s Roar “Active” (Water Attribute Magic Group Attack, with an additional piercing effect)]

[Skill Two: Calamity of Destructive Water “Active” (Ice Attribute Magic Wide Area Attack, with an additional piercing effect)]

[Skill Three: Great Waterfall Torrential Wall “Active” (Ice Attribute Defensive Magic, can automatically repair, extremely effective on water terrain)]

[Skill Four: Mastery of Water Attribute Magic “Passive” (Significantly increases damage when using ice attribute magic)]

“You are indeed the navy commander, and a Water Flow Great Mage at that.”

Closing the other’s Attribute Column, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction.

With this, everything undoubtedly will proceed according to my plan.

Although Lawrence’s authority has long since waned, his reputation and prestige in the Grimm Kingdom have remained favorable, which will significantly mitigate the Temple of Light’s instigation, enabling us to seize and conquer territories with greater ease.

As Leo Ray thought of this, the urgent sound of Mind Talk rang out.

Upon hearing it, Leo Ray casually activated the Mind Talk loudspeaker, and Asher Porter’s voice emerged: “Reporting to my Lord, everything transpired just as you anticipated, with the Grimm Royal Family and the Temple of Light simultaneously releasing news that the first Prince of the Grimm Kingdom, Hull, has been crowned king under the auspices of Pope Gannon the Ninth in the Holy City.”

“Moreover, they not only completely blamed William’s demise on us, claiming it was due to our side’s strong contestant, but they also described the twice-mutation of the soldiers as solely the work of Saint King William, with the Temple of Light instead becoming the powerless savior.”

“At the same time, the newly crowned New Saint King Hull delivered a tearful speech, asserting he would never give up resistance, and summoned everyone to avenge the old Saint King. The Grimm Kingdom and the Temple of Light will surely fight to the last.”

After hearing Asher’s description, Leo Ray exchanged glances with the newly acquired Prince Viceroy Lawrence.

The entire development was exactly as discussed earlier.

Amid the exchange, Leo Ray went on to describe the current situation of both parties, especially concerning their tri-directional assault on the enemy.

“Your Highness Prince Viceroy, how do you think we should proceed with our next move?”

After fully describing the situation, Leo Ray nodded to Lawrence.

“My Lord, you flatter me too much, simply call me by name.”

The old Prince Viceroy initially waved his hands in flattered disbelief, then furrowed his brow, saying: “First, the Southern Region of the Grimm Kingdom, which the Deep Green Kingdom is attacking, is full of steep mountains and has many fortified strongholds. Even if most of the defensive forces are re-deployed, I fear we cannot easily achieve continuous and effective outcomes in a short time.”

“After all, the cavalry of the Deep Green Kingdom is unmatched among Human various countries, particularly skilled in plains warfare, but facing complex mountain assaults is beyond their capacity.”

“Thus, I believe, my Lord should have Eckhart achieve substantial victory while the enemy is caught off guard, then gradually shift to a defensive stance against the subsequently mobilized and recruited enemy defensive forces, thereby containing their Southern forces.”

As Lawrence spoke to this point, Leo Ray thoughtfully nodded, saying: “That aligns with my intention; I wasn’t planning to let Eckhart be the main attacking force anyway. For one, the Deep Green Kingdom’s forces are limited, and second, internal stability hasn’t fully settled yet. Eckhart needs to secure his internal position on the throne before engaging wholeheartedly in battle.”

Having said this, Leo Ray slightly nodded, signaling Lawrence to continue.

“Secondly, regarding the Ironhand Archipelago’s excellent rear-stabbing direction, there’s a tricky issue: the Ironhand Archipelago is concurrently facing two fronts, against the Pars Empire and the Grimm Kingdom, both of which have captured numerous towns, thus straining supply and manpower.”

Lawrence lightly stroked his chin and continued: “I suggest the Ironhand Archipelago should gradually shrink its lines, concentrating its main forces at the Grimm Kingdom’s battlefield, whereas on the Pars Empire’s front, take advantage of their lack of forces, capturing several key fortresses that are hard to defend yet easy to supply, and shift to a defensive posture.”

“This conquered area can work alongside our heavily armed Sunset Fortress, playing a similar restraining role against the Pars Empire, leaving them no resources to intervene in the Grimm Kingdom battlefield in the short term.”

At this point, Lawrence added: “In doing so, the Ironhand Archipelago can smoothly cooperate with us in actions.”

“Exactly as I thought.”

Leo Ray snapped his fingers lightly and pondered, “With the restriction of a Barrier, executing a double-front war is indeed too strenuous once the Pars Empire’s main forces return from the Unfallen Fortress.”

After speaking, Leo Ray asked, “Then what about our final move, setting out from the Sunset Fortress?”

“My Lord, this aspect is precisely where we’re most critical. The opposing side is using despicable means, not only trying to overpower us with their combat power but also by portraying themselves, the intended invaders, as the innocent victims.”

Lawrence gently knitted his graying eyebrows and responded: “Therefore, we shouldn’t just overpower them with our combat strength but also aim to win their hearts, helping the populace recognize reality as much as possible.”

“How should we proceed specifically?”

Lawrence’s eyes were full of determination as he respectfully responded: “First, we should preemptively destroy the source of evil along the way, that is, all the Chapters of the Temple of Light.”

Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction and continued to listen to the other’s words, “And what is the second point?”
