Chapter 1462 773: War of the Two Kings

The kingdom of Einvrus has fifteen swords drawn on its flag, a picture that indicates the country point of origin.

Therefore, this war will be passed down to posterity as an unprecedented civil war dedicated to Toravante and Alex, with the exception of Fifthsia, who has declared neutrality in the conflict.

I would like to record this battle right here, the battle that would become known as the War of the Two Kings, for those who would rather like to look back to the past than look forward towards the future.

The War of the Two Kings. The beginning of the conflict is the encounter with “Foreigner” who looks almost completely different from us by the survey corps of the New Continent of Einvurs.

How did it come to this? It is not possible to tell what happened in the royal family by writing it down in a single text, but in conclusion, King Torvante was sent to the New Continent by the First Prince Alex in a form that was basically a banishment.

Under the command of the new king, Alex, the lord of Fifthsia, Phillynote Fifthsia, was ordered to build a battleship for the sole purpose of the “conquest” of the New Continent…… And surprisingly enough, Fifthsia refused to do so.

In response to that, First Prince Alex chose to usurp the throne of the Kingdom of Einvrus and retaliate against Fifthsia, the land which was there to support the Einvrus dynasty ever since the dawn of the kingdom’s creation. It was also the first time in the recorded history where the rulers of Fifthsia would openly revolt against the kingdom. It is at this moment that some of you might start to wonder “Why?” Why would Fifthsia do something so shocking as to oppose the kingdom it was a part of?

Or it would be more fitting to ask: why did Fifticia refuse to help make the ambitions of King Alex a reality?

It is speculated that this is due to the existence of the innovative ship “Conquest Vessel”, which was developed shortly before the war broke out.

Unlike conventional research vessels, this is a great invention that enables independent intercontinental navigation, even if it is a small vessel that can accommodate only about twenty to thirty people at maximum at any given time.

Fifthsia, who understood the usefulness of this research vessel, would have already come to the conclusion that research vessels should be mass-produced rather than building super-large Conquest Vessels.

But more than anything.

Those who appear together with the wind and leave with the wind. For those Pioneers who seek the unknown, it is like a gospel. Many Pioneers are staying in Fifthsia, the gateway to a completely new journey. I hear that some Pioneers are trying to build a ship by swinging their own mallets around, and if they decided to do so, it would take years for Fifthsia to be able to reach the level of shipbuilding that would let them be competitive in that field.

That is why Fifthsia had no choice but to rebel against the wish of the new king. After all, all Pioneers are powerful warriors and sorcerers. If they rampage in violence there, Fifthsia would have stopped functioning with no way to go back to normal.

There was a tiny crack forming in the Kingdom of Einvrus, one that would eventually prove itself to be too big. Alex’s feet are too unstable as he runs through the rush road to reach for the glorious Einvrus’s Fifteen Swords Crown.

As the end footprints approach the honeymoon of Fifthsia and the royal capital Nineshill…… an incident has occurred that literally widened a slight crack into the fissure that eventually became the division of the entire kingdom.

The return of former King Torvante. And the “rout” of the Third Knight.

Do the people reading this know what “coverage” is? In short, this is what I’m reading now, but to put it simply, it’s like an article that records a great game in the form of a live commentary.

This Kingdom Mayhem event was the largest Player Versus Player event since the Shangri-La Frontier officially began its service.

The confrontation between the two kings, Alex, the new king, and Torvante, the former king. Players gathered in one of the two camps and fought through the “war” of some sort of based on the camp-capture rules.

And there is a great match in a place where there is a great battle. This kind of thought was born from the Players, including the author of the text here…… Like the ancients carved their myths on the stone slabs in our real world. In this cyber world, we also want to write down our own feats while flapping in the wind of the Kingdom Mayhem.

That is what this coverage is going to be all about.

The “Thirdrema Machine Steel Battle”. The “Bomb Mountain Defeat Corps”. The “Immortal Army Clash”. The “Ninehill Revolution”. …… Among the great games that broke out in various parts of the kingdom, this time I, the “Garlic Toast” am going to write about…… The fastest of all the Players, and its threat that was blocked by a man with a garlic in his hand.

The astonishing matchlessness of the Player “Sanraku”, who wrapped the Valley of the Ancient Soul surrounded by the cold undead’s miasma with the heat of excitement, and above all else…… Those who know about this coverage, already know about the duel with the streamer “GarNose” that is said to be one of the most famous duels in the history of ShangriLa Frontier in its entirety. Some of the Players even say, “I was fortunate to see this rather than playing an active part in the War of the Two Kings” (yours truly is one of such people).

Next I would like to write about the event known as the “The Duel of the Heavenly Dragons”.
