499 Sir Georges Chivalry (2/2)

\”Your Highness, please listen to me…\”

George spoke anxiously. Even Lancelot was getting nervous and wanted to persuade Lilo. However, Lilo raised her hand and interrupted both of them before saying, \”Though I don't intend to accept your troops, I won't decline other sources of aid, such as supplies and equipment. We also welcome a limited number of observers. Large armies are denied entry into Victoria City.\”

George was befuddled. Then he asked, \”Observers?\”

He didn't understand the meaning, so Lilo explained, \”Though your armies can't enter my territory, I'm willing to accept supplies and equipment and allow some of you to observe the battles. I understand that you aren't willing to miss such an epic war.\”

George was enlightened. Lilo wasn't very concerned about this war. To Queen Victoria, the war was like a performance between two factions. The observers were like the limited spectators of an arena.

\”Your Highness, perhaps you don't quite understand the feud between the Surface World and the Underworld. If the Underworld creatures break free from the Teleport Portal, they will shred everyone without hesitation. This isn't your war but a Human war. We aren't here to help you because we want to take part in an epic war. We are helping ourselves and are here for our salvation. Please don't be mistaken. We're not here to appreciate the excitement of war. A few observers aren't able to turn the tide of war. Are you expecting us to promote the Underworld creatures or the Victorians after watching the battles? Are you still angry with us over our declaration of war?\”

George asked several questions in one breath. All Humans would share George's concerns and nod in agreement. It wasn't a time to throw tantrums. The Underworld creatures were right at their doorstep. They should be uniting to fight against the Dark forces. That was what George thought.

Golden-haired George had thrown in all his chips. If Queen Victoria was rational, she would be able to identify with his hopes and suggestions.

But Lilo said casually, \”The observers are my best offer. There's no room for discussion. If you wish, you may send some observers. Of course, I hope that you'll promote the invincibility of the warriors under my leadership. Don't promote Eternal Kingdom.\”

Lilo ordered the three Hamsters to escort George out of Victoria City and inform the generals of the Godly Kingdom's army. She only allowed a maximum of ten observers.

George felt it was a shame. However, he could only leave Victoria City with regrets. He had failed in his mission, but it wasn't in vain. At least Victoria City was intact. Those Underworld creatures were only at the boundary of Victoria City. They hadn't overrun Victoria City. That was the result of the valiant efforts of the Victorians.

George wasn't optimistic that Victoria City could defeat the Underworld creatures. Queen Victoria had overestimated the abilities of her warriors.

George was escorted back to Goldshire Town by the enthusiastic Victorians. They were expecting supplies and equipment from the Godly Kingdom.

George pondered and wrote a letter. He let the Victorians who were going to Goldshire Town pass the letter to General Shidan. He was going to be one of the ten observers. After all, he wouldn't be helpful even if he went back. Instead of staying at Goldshire Town, he could stay in Victoria City and observe the war situation.

Lancelot admired the bravery of Golden-haired George. Previously, Lancelot treated George as his enemy. But now, he saw the chivalry of a Knight in George.

Golden-haired George didn't know if it was worth it, but he wouldn't regret his decision. When he decided to stay, a few Victorians ran back and shouted excitedly, \”The Eternal pigs are flooding out of the Teleport Portal. They are coming to Victoria City!\”
