Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

"Draconir, what kind of monarch do you want to be? I grew up under the protection of your grandfather and witnessed all the slander, contempt and unwillingness that Caledor experienced.

Prince Mikhail did his best to provide us with all the necessary conditions for growth. I, Edtalis, and even Imrik all followed his ideas in our hearts, all for Caledor.

But what about you? I have never known a Caledor who would choose to walk among the civilians in person. Yes, this will make you understand the suffering of the people and know that the operation of the kingdom is not a piece of decree.

But what is the price of doing so? I am willing to sacrifice my family for a grand goal, without understanding, pity, or sympathy, as long as it is for Caledor.

To this day, you still have some unrealistic fantasies to understand the bridge between humans and humans... The riot should be announced to let everyone know what the consequences of disobeying the dragon's orders will be.

They will respect a rational monarch, but will never submit to a benevolent monarch who does nothing. Brutality, idealism and cruelty are the reasonable ways to rule humans. "

Agsel recounted his thoughts over the past hundred years. He really couldn't stand Prince Caledor's attitude towards humans. The Lord of Wind Howling City saw many things in the new world...

Equality, independence, roars, and shouts that should not have appeared... Those ballads that originally symbolized sadness and courage in the north of the old world have now become the prelude to resistance and awakening.

"That was my father's move..."

"But it turned out to be very effective! He never talked about anything about human power, because he understood that what really allowed Caledor to stand tall in Ulthuan was dragons, lances, and volcanoes!"

The silent Prince Caledor did not give the Lord of Windwhistle a pause. His position was as solid as a rock. Even if the noble council was completely reshuffled, even if the power of humans in Caledor became stronger, even if the dragons fell asleep again on a large scale, he was still the unquestionable Adonis.

"Draconir, think about our past, think about it..."

"There is nothing worth remembering in our past, only silence... What makes you think that we can't control the growth of human power? Weakness or doubt, Agthor.

You keep talking about my father's greatness, but never consider how he achieved this. Is it doubt and concern?

No, it is the pride and confidence. He is confident that even if humans can compete with Asur, he can still control it. Even if the whole of Ulthuan is deeply trapped in the self-doubt of the Asuryan Oracle, he still dares to sit in his place.

When did the proud dragon princes of Caledor turn into a group of... cowards who always question their abilities? You are in a group with only three honors. With the help of the nobles, in the reality of less than two thousand Asur troops, they guarded Erengrad and faced the Khorne army, defending the irrelevant human city with honor and life, but they did not have the courage to witness the growth of the kingdom's power.

Yes, this is a bet, but I am confident that I can win and make these humans submit to Caledor's rule forever, instead of thinking about their ridiculous Tsar, Khan Queen.

You always criticize behind the back, discussing that the Dragon Court has become very weak and lacks decisive judgment, but the only thing I can guarantee and the only thing I must ensure is that Caledor can continue. "

The calm prince, with a hint of excitement in his tone, but soon calmed down. He looked at the vast ocean, but his mind was silent in that terrible nightmare.

Maybe humans will be independent, maybe the whole of Ulthuan will fall apart, but what he must do is to let the Dragon Kingdom continue.

Sitting firmly on the reef, Agthel stared at the young face of the prince. He could hardly see anything from the calm expression, but the emotions in his heart never stopped.

If he was wrong, it would cause chaos in Caledor, but we were never afraid...

But if what he insisted on was out of responsibility for the kingdom and he had to shoulder the fate of the family, what should I do?

The Lord of Wind Howl City slowly stood up, walked to the prince and knelt on one knee, supporting his knees with his hands and nodding his head: "As always, Adonis always expresses infinite loyalty to your family... My doubts are due to my identity, but loyalty will never fade.

My daughter Orseya and I have always been the vanguard of Caledor, willing to shed blood for the towering mountains and volcanoes."

Agthel left first, never meeting the emperor from the old world, and took the lead in asking the temporary military council for a group of soldiers from the new world as a prelude to the war.

Karl Franz was very glad to agree to Etila's invitation and visit the New World. He signed many favorable terms with Prince Caledor.

It was not Caledor's one-sided contribution. After seeing that the technology of the construct plan was difficult to break through, the emperor took the initiative to propose technical exchanges on mechanical warhorses as a bargaining chip.

The Gunnery Academy of Wisen Territory has many incredible ideas, among which the mechanical warhorse ridden by the engineering master is one of them. The elves are obviously very interested in this.

As for whether he can get the technology from the Countess, Karl is not worried about it. He has seen that the Dragon Court has a close relationship with Nuln. Maybe the Countess has already explained what he discussed in Tal Kaled to the Phoenix King.

One technology for two resources, he would not be stupid enough to ask about the situation in Wisen Territory and be willing to take a favor from the elves... and take a batch of reserve materials from the No. 3 Military Factory.

However, what really made the emperor happy was the dragon prince Rosetina. When the dragon prince, wearing the silver armor of Iselamar without any emblems, arrived at the emperor's palace with a silver moon dragon and thirty elite cavalrymen, Carl could hardly suppress the corners of his mouth that kept rising.

The dragon temporarily stayed in the dragon's nest near Tal Kaled. Rosetina did not want his compatriots to know that he was taken away from prison by the imperials and walked into the palace with only thirty cavalrymen.

Although it was a secret operation, most of the elven civil servants who passed by him stopped and nodded to the hero of Caledor, and some military nobles who were busy with war preparations also greeted their colleagues without exception, as if the imprisonment had never happened.

Kurt nodded in response one by one, but it made him a little doubtful. In order to show his respect, the emperor ordered him to accompany the dragon prince throughout the whole process. He thought that Rosetina was just a criminal. No matter how respected he was in the past, entering the palace should be like a mouse meeting a cat.

"You seem like a hero, not a newly released prisoner."

"You asked a very sensitive question. If it were in the past, I would have asked for a duel, but now..." Rosetina looked at the towering main hall with a little nostalgia, and finally lowered her head helplessly: "I hope your monarch will not let me down."

"I promise not to, he is an outstanding emperor." (End of this chapter)
