314,

To take the initiative, otherwise, if things continue like this, Yuna will be executed.

According to everything he had planned, it felt the same as before, like when he charged towards Sonja.

Cyclone took a deep breath, being cautious with every word he was about to say.

"Ah... The stake? What in the world is that?"

Cyclone pretended not to know and asked the question.

In an instant, the eyes of some of the throne's occupants turned towards Cyclone.

His hands began to tremble, not even half of the ministers looked this way, but Cyclone already felt the pressure.

Cyclone swayed left and right, calming his hands down.

"Cyclone, the hero, you don't even know what the stake is?"

Indeed, Minister Stanny was friendly; even though Cyclone asked a silly question, he asked with concern.

"Oh~ Of course I know what the stake is, it's when they burn the criminal alive~ I've tried it in Riverbranch, as the one being burned."

A few ministers lowered their heads and discussed for a few seconds because of Cyclone's remark.

"But I didn't ask about the stake, I asked why they want to use the stake again?"

A question mark was thrown out, and Cyclone tried to test the waters.

Apart from Stanny, Sonja, and the people Cyclone knew, Daniel and the other ministers didn't pay any attention to Cyclone.

"Maybe because the hero Cyclone has just returned and isn't too clear about it. But it's okay; you just need to listen."

Here it comes, the first hurdle.

Even in the past, even when attending meetings in the throne room, Cyclone rarely spoke.

As a nominal figure, Cyclone's existence was only limited to appearing and exchanging greetings.

Participating in state affairs? No one would listen to Cyclone's words, and even explaining felt troublesome.

Minister Stanny was willing to explain for Cyclone, which already demonstrated his goodwill.

However, Cyclone couldn't just settle for listening.

Cyclone took a step forward, leaving only one step before the stairs leading to the throne.

Compared to the ministers who came forward to speak, Cyclone stood further forward, closer to King Allen.

This was the furthest distance, any further, and it would be seen as stepping out of bounds.

"But this time, I can't just listen."

Cyclone shook his head helplessly.

It should be normal for everyone to be amazed by this statement. But in this throne room, all the ministers were used to the ways of the world, and not only did they show no reaction, but they also continued to observe with indifference like Daniel.

But Cyclone had to break this atmosphere, if not now, he would miss his chance.

"I am Allen's hero; for the future of Allen, then I..."

"Brother Cyclone!"

Before Cyclone could finish his words, someone quickly interrupted him.

Several ministers retreated into the crowd, at the same time, Daniel took a step forward.

"This concerns the authority of the country and the stability of the people's hearts. You not understanding the country's policies is not important..."

In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer; Daniel didn't want to watch Cyclone walk to his death.

Cyclone understood, that bespectacled man was someone with a soft heart.

Cyclone understood his intention, but...

"So... we're going to kill a girl?"

"She is a witch."

A minister shouted.

"So... we can kill a girl!?"

"The dual identity of a demon's witch represents her existence as evil!"

Finally, Allen's deputy general, Basbasi, stepped forward.

This man, whom Cyclone did not like from the first day, looked at Cyclone with a serious and fierce gaze.

Not enough, this gaze was not enough to shake that "common sense".

Half of the ministers were not looking at Cyclone, indicating that Cyclone's words were not impactful enough.

Cyclone did not move and did not speak.

Instead, he looked up, putting on a silent coercion.

Basbasi saw this and did not know how to proceed. Giving a lecture to someone who did not even look at him would compromise his dignity.

He looked behind him and then looked at King Allen.

One second...

Two seconds...

Three seconds...

Seeing Cyclone still silent and looking at the sky, Basbasi decided to take a step back. There was no need to waste time with a man who seemed to be doing nothing.

However, at this moment, Cyclone spoke out loudly.

"I made a vow to His Majesty that I would witness the moment when that happy world arrives with my own eyes."

After saying that, he lowered his head and looked back at the ministers in the throne room.

With his back turned to King Allen, Cyclone had no intention of turning around.

Basbasi's slight retreat made Cyclone the only person in the throne room who stood up.

In front of all the ministers, Cyclone spoke naturally.

"But in my eyes, your method of execution is simply boring~"

Cyclone still had his back turned to King Allen, and although there was only one person behind him, the pressure he emitted was stronger than that of all the ministers.

"I dare say..."

As he thought and searched for the most appropriate words.

I know that there are some words that, once spoken, can never be taken back...

"If things continue like this..."

However, if certain words are not spoken, they can never be conveyed, and nothing will ever change.

Cyclone paused, leaving a pause for his last statement.

So...

"The Allen Kingdom will only march towards destruction!"

Cyclone's words were spoken, and the entire throne room's attention was focused solely on him.

After a few seconds of silence, a battle of words unfolded in the throne room, officially beginning.
