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

They were immediately interested in this strategy.

For the surrounding small countries, although they were small, they were nothing more than a pack of baby wolves that could be easily destroyed with a single kick.

Even if the Lolan Empire wanted to get something out of them, they would not be able to get anything good or of quality out of them.

However, for the Spartan Kingdom, they could be much more beneficiary for the Lolan Empire in the future. This was because they were not considered a small kingdom. Therefore, it would be a good thing for the Lolan Empire to feed this baby wolf for future benefits.

Kyle immediately said excitedly, "Boss, quickly tell us, what kind of strategy is this?"

Lorne nodded and then gestured to the two of them. "The most important thing is being crowned suzerain and the situation where Marcus urgently needs assistance."

Abner pondered for a moment and then said hesitantly, "Could it be that they are using the identity of having a suzerain to interfere with other affairs?"

Lorne immediately patted the table lightly.

"Right on point my smart friend."

Abner immediately chuckled, as if being praised by Lorne was something to be proud of.

Lorne continued to explain, "If they were to stand on the Lolan King's side now, they would have to pay tribute to the Lolan Empire.

"We could request that as the suzerain kingdom, we should send troops to guard the borders of the two countries, or simply forge fortresses within the borders of the Spartan Kingdom as an excuse to protect them, but in reality, this wil lbe able to restrict many of their sneaky movements.

"With that, as long as there are any major changes in their country, we can immediately send our troops to intervene.

"When that time comes, we can stir up trouble amidst the chaos in the name of being the suzerain. In any case, we can intervene anytime and even manage their internal affairs.

"In fact, as long as this strategy succeeds, it could be up to us to decide whether or not this Marcus can continue to be the king in the Spartan Kingdom.

"Forget about feeding the wolves, the Lolan Empire could basically raise this wolf to do its bidding in the future.

"Let me ask you, after knowing this possibility, would you accept the title of being the suzerian?"

As soon as Lorne finished speaking, Kyle immediately clapped his hands.

"Yes, I'll say yes to it now!

"If there is such a good thing, whoever doesn't do it will be a fool. If I were the current king, I would immediately agree to the terms!"

Lorne clapped his hands and replied, "Isn't that right? Let me tell you, the current king might have the same idea.

"Moreover, after becoming the suzerain of the Spartan Kingdom, there will be more benefits than just this. Wait until the Lolan Empire launches a war against the Bora Kingdom.

"The Lolan King could immediately request the Spartan Kingdom to send troops from the other side as the suzerain, bringing great pressure to the Bora Kingdom from other directions. By utilizing this, the Lolan King would have a smoother road to victory in this war!"

Kyle kept getting more and more excited. His hands kept rubbing his thighs, as if he had already foreseen the scene described by Lorne.

However, after he calmed down a little, Kyle said with some hesitation, "But if the Lolan King puts these terms on the table, will Marcus agree?

"He's not a stupid person. This would be him digging his own grave. Would he be at ease knowing that he would have to sacrifice these things for his suzerian kingdom?"

Lorne snorted.

"It's up to him whether he agrees or not. If he doesn't agree, they just won't be the suzerain.

"The important point is that Marcus is the one whose begging. It's not us us that's begging him. It's obvious that he would take whatever he can get.

"If he doesn't agree to this, what awaits him would be his kingdom falling into shamble.

"Moreover, with his young nature and ability to scheme thing, he must at least be a little bit conceited. He might think that with his ability, he can get out of the current predicament in the future when he gets stronger.

"If that's the case, I would still take that gamble nontheless. Otherwise, it won't be worth it."

Kyle could not help but nod. Then, he secretly memorized Lorne's point of view and reasoning.

These were all wise sayings. It was a high-level game of scheming and warring between countries.

Kyle felt that there were still many things that he had not learned thoroughly. He quickly took the opportunity to catch up on his life lessons.

In the past, he only felt that if he took in a group of underlings in the neighboring countries, he would become the suzerain.

The biggest benefit was that he would have a greater status amongst others, and then he could show off the might of the Lolan Empire. Only now did he understand that being the suzerain for others was more important to be able to reap benefits, and not just for gaining status.

It seemed that he would have to use this method more in the future, not just for the spartan Kingdom. He might as well set up a few troops in the future that would be specially used to stay in other countries territories.

In this way, as long as there were any changes in these countries, or if they were disadvantageous to his Lolan Empire, he would immediately react and directly control the political situation of these countries.

This was simply a brilliant move.

It turned out that countries politics could go beyond just gaining popularity.

Kyle realized that he had so much more to learn in life!

...

Kyle and Abner finally let out a sigh of relief. The atmosphere in the tavern suddenly began to liven up now that the aching feeling in their chest were gone.

After drinking a few rounds of wine, Kyle's face flushed red. Kyle knew that he could not drink anymore. Otherwise, he might reek of alcohol again. If he was unlucky and ran into Andrew again, he would be reprimanded.

Therefore, in order to avoid that situation from happening again, Kyle quickly put down the wine glass in his hand and patted his clothes.

"Boss, I think it's getting late. It's about time for me and my pal to go back.

"Today, you've taught me how to strategize on things. In the past, I thought it was all about the surface leveled statuses.

"Now I realize that my understanding of the past is still too shallow. It seems that I should learn more from you in the future."

Lorne could not help but Pat Kyle'shoulder.

"Old friend, if you weren't willing to acknowledge me as your master before, now you're regretting it, right?!

"But it's not too late to bring it up now. I still have time to take you as my disciple. You should consider it.

"When the time comes, you and your son can take me as your master."

Hearing this, Abner's eyelids twitched.

Lorne was really awesome.

He wanted to be the First Prince's teacher and the king's teacher!

Even Kyle did not know what to say.

He waved his hand repeatedly and said, "No, no, no. Brother, please let me off. Stop talking about this.. To be honest, I should arrange for that good-for-nothing kid of mine to come over in the next few days and let you teach him a thing or two."
