Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 1885

"Prince Enoch still has ties with some of the fiefs, and once he rebels, we can assume that these fiefs will support him. Since the Ghost Fief and the Flower Fief support you, it can be said that the royal family will lose the support of at least half of the nine fiefs. Of course, we also know that the nine fiefs are the foundation of the power of the royal family. Losing half of them will surely be a huge blow. With that, I don't think the king can stand against Enoch and the demonic race." Rocky gave a coherent analysis.

"I see. You are indeed right, Odin. The current situation seems to be favorable for us. If the royal family confronts Enoch's army, they will have no time to deal with us. Just as you said, we can take advantage of that and proceed with our own plans." Layla immediately understood what Rocky was trying to say. By the time Enoch started his rebellion, the royal family would have no choice but to try to suppress him. While this was happening, Rocky and Layla could just watch from the sideline until both sides were banged up. At the right timing, they could make the move and put their plans in motion.

"Your Royal Highness, have you already made up your mind to go against the royal family?" Gilbert asked with a frown. He knew that once the princess decided to do it, there would be no turning back.

"Gilbert, do you think it is necessary for the royal family to continue existing? I know that you understand the current situation of the Shura Race better. If we let the current system continue and don't make essential changes, the Shura Race will just repeat the mistakes it has done in the past," Layla answered firmly. She remembered when Rocky asked her the same question, and from then on, she knew exactly what she should do.

"I pledged my allegiance to you because I know that you have the capability to turn the Shura Race into something better. I don't plan to change my original intention. However, if we are going to go against the royal family, I can't promise that Flora will also support you," Gilbert said with reluctance.

"It is best if we let Valeria talk to Leader Flora. I believe that Valeria can persuade her," Rocky immediately urged. In fact, he had already spoken with Valeria about this, so she knew what to do when the time came.

"I see. For now, I will leave Odin in your care, Your Royal Highness. If anything should happen, just send someone to inform me." After saying that, Gilbert eventually summoned his mount and headed back to the Ghost Fief.

"Of course, we should not be contented with the support of the two fiefs. At this time, it will be better if we can also persuade and merge with the fiefs under Prince Zain," Rocky said, crossing his arms on his chest.

"Join hands with the fiefs under Zain?" Layla had reservations. After all, she knew that it was something hard to do.

"There is no doubt that Zain's power and influence are the strongest among you three candidates. Although he and his men suffered great losses in the Ghostly Demon Land, it doesn't necessarily affect his overall strength. If we can get the fiefs, who support him, over to our side, especially the Primitive Fief, it will certainly be a good thing for us," Rocky explained calmly.

"I understand the logic of what you are saying, but I don't think Zain will ever let us poach his men," Layla replied, shaking her head.

"Maybe. But in the end, it may not be up to him to decide on that matter. I have already sown some seeds in the past, and now it is time to reap them," Rocky said with a cunning smile.

Hearing this, Layla could just sigh and let out a faint smile. In her mind, she thought that she was very lucky to have Rocky by her side. Otherwise, she might not even have a chance to compete for the position of the leader of the royal family. She could not believe that the young man even had ways to gather the support of the fiefs that she thought would be impossible to have.

After Gilbert was gone, Layla went back to her palace together with Rocky.

Then, just after a few days, a piece of news spread out that Enoch had already started to revolt, and he even started to declare himself as the new king. Moreover, just as Rocky suspected, the two fiefs under Enoch also betrayed the royal family and joined the rebelling army.

At this point, the power structure of the Shura Race began to get out of balance. This rebellion meant that a bloody and chaotic civil war was about to ensue.

Not long after, the news also reached the Royal Land.

"Your Majesty! We received some bad news!" A minister hurriedly rushed towards the hall and was heavily panting.

"What's going on? Why are you in such a hurry?" The king, who was currently discussing important matters with the elders and other ministers in the hall, could not help but furrow his brows.

"Your Majesty, Prince Enoch has just started a rebellion!" the minister exclaimed in a shaking voice.
