Eagle Flag of Epirus

Vol 5 Chapter 12: Humiliation (Part 2)

The white flag in the fort came out, and it was obvious that even the rebellious Romanus had to lower his arrogant head.

   The besieging Moria's army temporarily lowered its weapons at Justinian's sign, and temporarily gave up the plan to attack the city, which made a group of people in the fort breathe a sigh. It seems that the other party is still somewhat afraid of Romanus Dukas's identity and dare not do too much.

   Just listen to the people in the fortress shouting loudly at this moment:

"Master Justinian, we implore you to lift the siege, and we are willing to leave here. Since we are all loyal to the empire and to His Royal Highness Prince Theodor, please forgive us and bear the blame for our previous offenses." They no longer had the confidence to shout at Justinian on the tower before, looking at the besieged fortress, the negotiators were frightened and cautious, for fear of angering the other party again.

However, Justinian didn't mean to be empathetic, and said coldly: "Of course I am loyal to His Royal Highness and I am loyal to the empire, but I have been alone and helpless in Moria for a long time. It can't be easily written off."

   The ruthless Justinian directly interrupted the other party's words in the opponent's fortress, and cut off his desire to let the two sides forget the past, and the atmosphere that had just eased off for a while became tense again.

Behind Justinian, the Moria nobles who came afterwards could not help but frown, even though they were very dissatisfied with the rudeness of the Epirus people, so they did not interfere with what happened just now, but since The other party has already subdued, and Justinian's pursuit of such a fierce fight is naturally not in line with their wishes. After all, Moria is only half recovered now, and they are not willing to offend Epirus any more.

   But Justinian didn't seem to know this. Not only did he fail to make concessions, but pressed on, which immediately angered Romanus Dukas in the fortress even more.

   "Don't deceive people too much, Justinian!" The closed gate of the fortress suddenly opened at this moment, and the frustrated Romanus Dukas stepped out regardless of the guard's obstruction, while he held a heavy broadsword in his hand.

   Immediately, the crossbowmen behind Justinian stood alert and aimed at Romanus, but they were stopped by the calm young man riding on the horse and motioned for them to put away their weapons.

Sure enough, as Justinian expected, Romanus Dukas was still as uncomfortable as before, and what he wanted was just like this, and the nobles who watched this scene couldn't help but do it. Look sideways.

   Although they resented the superiority and conspiracy of the Dukas family, the irritability and recklessness of this young nobleman in front of them was completely indistinguishable from what Dukas should have, since they were a bit contemptuous and a little disappointed. It seems that I still can't have much hope for the Dukas family.

On the other hand, Romanus still didn’t realize this. He pointed his sword at Justinian and roared: “Justinian, if you have the ability, you can fight with me to determine the outcome. If anyone loses, Whoever gets out of Tripolis!” As he said, Romanus grabbed a long sword from the waist of the guard beside him and threw it on the ground in front of Justinian’s horse.

But Justinian did not accept his challenge, and directly rejected Romanus, "Do you think I would really be that stupid? Anyway, now Tripolis is in my hands, who would accept this? What about boring duel challenges?"

"You!" The speechless Romanus stared at Justinian with a bitter gaze, completely looking like choosing someone to eat, but Justinian was still calm as usual. He knew each other too well, first. This time he saw that Romanus, who claimed to be a nobleman, had grown up with a golden spoon, but in fact he did not have the qualities that a superior person should have. He was frustrated in his own few words, and he was not worthy of Justinian's fear at all.

At this time, the belated Moswar quickly asked his subordinates to "invite" Romanus to go. He was also very helpless. As a jester in the eyes of others, Moswar tried his best to assist Romanus. Nus Dukas, but in fact he knew that the son of the prince did not have that kind of talent, because of this, the position of Agrinon's heir has not been determined. However, he had no choice. He stood up and looked at Justinian, who was calm and relaxed. Musval knew he had underestimated Justinian's power, but now there was no one else to negotiate with.

   glanced over the faces of a few unfamiliar nobles, still with a little hope, only to hear Moswar say loudly:

"Masters of Moria, I regret everything that happened before, but I still wonder why you intervened in Epirus' internal affairs. Could it be said that Lord Justinian promised you nothing? You know~www.mtlnovel .com~If your Royal Highness Romanus had an accident just now, it would not be a good thing for you and me!"

   It is provocative on the one hand, and temptation on the other. Although I don’t know what Justinian’s hole cards are, even if the defeat is set, Mosvall is still unwilling to leave Tripolis empty-handed.

   However, at this moment, a representative of the Papadoulos family stood up and answered that Moswar's heart was completely chilled by the time.

"Tripolis itself is our place in Moria, and it is not yet your turn to get involved with Epirus. Although we have declared our allegiance to Emperor Muzfius, everything you have done just now has offended. For the entire Moria nobles, Lord Justinian is now the adopted son, heir, and future Prince Moria of Grand Duke Anastasius! Now put down your weapons and leave, and ask for forgiveness from your Highness! "

"Grand Duke Anastasius... the heir of the public?!" Mouswar muttered to himself completely unable to believe his ears, even though he had never heard of the name Anastasius, but he did not stand. The Moria nobles who came out to deny have proven everything. Obviously, this is a not-so-simple character to have such an influence, and Justinian has the ability to master Moria's power. But in just a dozen days, Justinian, who had returned to the south, was no longer a small role in their eyes. The chess pieces that were supposed to be embellished on the chessboard have not only broken free of control, but now they have become players who are also in control of the chess game.

   But all of this is too incredible for Muswar to imagine, and Romanus Dukas, who also heard all this, was dumbfounded and completely speechless.
