Chapter 189

In the Throne room, everyone shook their heads, casting an awkward smile.

Many people in the world wanted to ascend the throne by doing everything in their power to crush the opposition by hook or crook and once they sat on the throne, many of them would hold onto their power tightly in fear of sharing a tiny bit of their authority to others and will kill anyone who tried to oppose them.

However, Alex was the exact opposite and he would run away from power and authority as if it was a snake.

The King’s only interest was now to make the people self-sufficient and stronger to avert any calamity that could fall on Nevan.

While kings may salivate and become a dog to please the nobles of Kinley when the opportunity comes and would even bow down to get a chance to get coronation in the Capital Of Kinley, the King instead of rushing to get the official coronation was thinking about how to woo his wife.

But who could help the minister inside the hall to get out of such situations and comment on it?

Only if one had a heart of stone can one oppose the King when he took a stance.

Bassie shook his head with a wry smile” I will report the final details to His Majesty to make a decision later.”

“You don’t need to report me. You can do as you please.”

“I trust you fully. If something goes wrong, you will offer your head yourself, won’t you?” Alex cast an insidious smile mortifying Bassie who could do nothing except nod obediently.

After the discussion and follow-up plans were over, Bassie reported to Alex about the things going on behind.

Behind the Castle was a small forest under the foot of the hill which had been changed into

Ferron Steel Square.

The place had been classified as a forbidden zone where even high-level officials and ministers can’t set foot.

Except for Alex only his wives along with Bassie and Mordek could enter this place.

It had been completely blocked from outside. Of course, there seemed to be nothing wrong with the outer appearance while a huge hoarding with the name of the tag Nevan prison was hanged.

There were a small number of guards who seemed to be lazing around yawning with a boring look but inside there were currently 100 highly trained guards of disciples who followed a strange pattern while patrolling all around the place so that even a bird couldn’t go undetected.

Alex smoothly entered the forbidden ground with no resistance and went straight to the underground place.

The underground soil had been dug out by the future legendary miner itself after which a stone wall cave had been made.

In comparison to the quiet outside, the inside was more active where 100 elites chosen by Alex himself were trained on his orders on the right side.

Aeon, the first son of Count Hamilton was also training there and already had a Master’s rank.

Aeon, who was swinging his sword, noticed Alex’s presence and bowed his head.

The others also bowed down and Alex gave a gentle nod and waved his hand asking them to carry out what they were doing.

They were being trained to become knights under Mordek’s guidance who was quite busy overseeing the military academia and them.

Soon, Count Hamilton and Lampard would take over the guiding of recruits in military academia and Mordek would fully dedicate them to raising them secretly.

On the left wing, another hundred individuals were being trained brutally who had seen the darkness of society.

Alex on his crusade of killing the evildoers found many oddballs who have quite a good potential. Each one of them could become an asset to Nevan in the future.

So, instead of killing, Alex spared them by planting a slave mark but that didn’t mean Alex had already forgiven them.

Those who have killed innocent people have to save ten times as people in the future if they wanted to get rid of the slave mark.

Unlike other slave marks which can be broken if the slave became stronger than the master, the slave mark used by Alex once engrained can only be removed by him.

Ptash!Ptash!Ptash!

Alex hears the nerve-wracking scream of the people as he passes through the corridor.

Alex stared at their training where they were hit by whips while others were fighting with each other with real daggers in hand.

All these elites after finishing their training would be under Shadow Queen. Her words will be law for them and she would be their Queen.

Alex stood there for a brief moment overseeing the training.

“Your Majesty!!”

Alex saw a familiar place who bent down on his knees before Alex.

“Ohh! Kajar, nice to see you.”

“It seems you have been doing well.”

“Yes, Your Majesty. With your grace, I was finally able to gain back my strength and I am preparing to break through into Epic rank soon.”

“Perhaps by the time you return you will see a bunch of Epic ranks and many master ranks,” Kajar spoke in a humble tone.

“You are doing well Kajar, your time to shine will come soon.”

“How is Nina?” Alex asked about Kajar’s wives.

“Nina is doing fine due to your grace.”

“Okay, carry out your work.”

Alex chatted for a few moments about their training and left.

As Alex walked further into the stone maze, the interior turned into a skyscraper-like huge stone hall with a deep and wide corridor where a dozen furnaces had been set up.

The best blacksmiths of Nevan and Wright were working here along with their apprentices and along with the help of soldiers sent huge solid rock pieces of iron into fences.

On the other side of the huge workshop, a huge carriage was made up of steel and wood where various golden engravings were done flaunting the artistic design.

But the interesting thing was that the golden engravings were not for decoration.
