    Chapter 526: Taking Advantage of the Situation

    Aileen looked at the neatly standing knights below, the knights she had personally honored, and said seriously, "Karoso Colloa is our best and most honorable companion."

    "Do you know why the United Nations calls him a follower of an evil god? Because they are afraid, afraid of Karoso, afraid of us!"

    "My lord, why are they afraid?" a knight stepped forward.

    Aileen, holding the Sword in the Stone, was the new Knight King to them.

    Aileen’s knights are all young knights, knights whose blood is still warm.

    They still believe in the spirit of knighthood, and with pure hearts, they help Aileen, wanting to be true knights.

    In plain words, these people are sincerely fighting for a cause, not for their own good, but for the good of the people.

    Because this is the spirit of knighthood left by the Knight King.

    Knights serve the people, and the people respect the knights.

    "We will bring clear skies back to this country, and we will punish those nobles who have forgotten the spirit of knighthood and the importance of people. Before, they did not take us seriously, but now we have reached their doorstep, so of course, they will be afraid!" Aileen looked around at everyone, "The power of Karoso makes them fear, the voices of the people make them fear, and the spirit of knighthood we gather together makes them fear!"

    "Years ago, they killed the Knight King, and today, they want to kill us too!"

    "They used a wicked scheme, trying to ruin us by throwing dirt at us."

    "As long as Karoso is labeled as a cultist, then our people are seen as allies of the evil god."

    "If we are timid, if we fall for their tricks, if we fear misunderstanding from the people and our families and leave this organization, then their plot will succeed!"

    "Karoso used his own light to show that he is not a follower of an evil god, but a person who seeks the light!"

    "However, this trick by the enemy has one good thing: it proves that we can make them fear us and our strength in battle, making them feel scared that they have to use such deceit!"

    "The more the enemy tries to stop us, the more it proves we are right, the more it shows they are not invincible, and the closer we are to victory!"

    Aileen swung her sword and said loudly, "Friends, let us gather our strength! We will take Yalaghar and press toward Fiercelion City!"

    "Behind us, we have our allies and our Laria reinforcements."

    "We are not alone!"

    "In this battle, we will surely win!"

    "The Pande Empire will surely see the glory of the Knight King era once again!"

    ……

    Canglang Province, Morning Star City, in front of the City Lord’s mansion.

    "Everyone, you have all seen it, Karoso Colloa, the third son of the Colloa family, the so-called ‘Third Young Master’—he is not a believer of an evil god!" Kazan looked at the huge crowd, "I am very angry because they are taking advantage of their status in the United Nations to smear my brother’s name!"

    "I am very angry; they are trying to drive a wedge between the Colloa family and Canglang Province."

    "I am very angry; they are trying to destroy Canglang Province!"

    "Is what the United Nations says always correct? No, they could be wrong!"

    "They think everyone will believe them; whatever they say must be true."

    "They are an official organization, and every year Canglang Province has to pay them some taxes to support them."

    "And how do they treat us? They toy with us, make us feel foolish, treat us like silly baboons!"

    "I asked everyone, can we bear this?"

    "No!" The shout was deafening.

    This is the prestige of the Colloa family in Canglang Province.

    With no other nobles to oppress them and no taxes to the kingdom, the Colloa family is like emperors in Canglang Province.

    Moreover, the people of Canglang Province are treated much better than those in other places.

    Osiris would rather offend many powerful nations and deceive, cheat, and fill the military funds than raise taxes.

    The Colloa family’s education ensures that even if a few children die, they will never let a villain rise to oppress the common people, which has made the Colloa family the pinnacle of nobility.

    Osiris came from the bottom, so he knows better what the people need and how to care for the provinces wholeheartedly.

    "Earlier, my father said internationally that Canglang Province would officially be renamed the Deleuze Empire. Canglang Province still exists, Deleuze… officially renamed the Deleuze United States." Kazan pulled out the sword that Osiris had left him, "The Kingdom of Persia has already amassed heavy troops at our doorstep; they think we are easy to bully, and they want to destroy us."

    "They are afraid; they are scared that they cannot defeat us directly, so they used this method."

    "We have not been divided; our hearts are united."

    "Today, I, Kazan Colloa, officially declare war on the Kingdom of Persia!"

    "We have trained our soldiers for a thousand days and will use them for just one moment. Let us conquer the Kingdom of Persia. Let them see the consequences of treating us like fools! Let them see that we are not fools! Let them see the spirit of Canglang Province! Let them see what makes Canglang Province stand strong on the great stage of the continent!"

    ……

    Yaleman, a certain tavern.

    "They are afraid; they are truly afraid." Adolf passionately spoke on stage, his little mustache twitching, "They used such despicable methods to deal with our partners!"

    "I believe that the noble people of Yaleman are not fools; all the discussions before were just laughing at the enemy’s incompetence!"

    "They no longer have the power to stop us; we represent the will of the people!"

    "We represent the unyielding spirit of Yaleman!"

    "We do not want a royal family that can only survive by relying on international support and the charity of enemies!"

    "Everyone, follow me, let’s enter the palace and crush them!"

    "We want to establish a new power that no country will dare to underestimate or trample on."

    Adolf readily agreed to work with Karoso because Karoso had killed a level nine Yaleman and had also restrained another level nine.

    Although level nines cannot take action, their presence is still a threat.

    Now, Adolf can finally charge into the palace without holding back.

    ……

    Laria.

    Karoso looked at the latest news and at the people promoting it, showing a knowing smile.

    It turned the situation around easily, completely mixing up right and wrong.

    However, this is war; such tactics can lessen the gap between enemies and allies.

    Even if the methods are a bit dirty, they must be used.

    "Alright, your issue is resolved." Minaret looked at Karoso, "This matter is finished."

    "No, it has just begun." Karoso folded the newspaper, "My friends are ready; it’s time to show them what a real battle of public opinion looks like."
