Before marrying Whale Hunter Jack Harold, she was also the favorite of many royal close ministers within the Union.

The Evernight Queen secretly betrayed her daughter, but many close to her, including Spade J, were obviously unaware of the truth.

However, a Transcendent who has reached the Fifth Order Legend may have various eccentricities, but none of them are fools.

With the feeling of impending turmoil nationwide and the recent high-profile actions of Vanessa's son-in-law, the King of the Wild Hunt, Spade J immediately understood what had happened.

A wry smile:

"I bet your mother doesn't know you're still alive."

Just looking at Little Vanessa, who even though has already become a mother, still remains as sweet and playful as in those days, could he really bear to lay a hand on this little princess he watched grow?

He's not like the Evernight Queen, who adheres strictly to the dictum: "Love what the God of Love loves and abhor what the God abhors" like a political creature.

He's just a common Fifth Order Legend with clear loves and hates.

Moreover, a certain faction within the country has obtained support from the "Strong Claim Right," and the nature has completely changed.

From a doomed military coup, to a throne war in line with the Northern Code coup succession law.

On this continent, the moral standard of "filial piety" doesn't exist; children rebelling against their fathers and mothers is all too common.

The Kingdom's Guardian no longer has a stance to intervene.

Clap! Clap!

Vanessa clapped her hands.

Outside, Iron Wall Bruh, Blood Red Whiskey Alfred, and Honest Man Eight Fingers together brought in a gambling table, respectfully placing it in front of the old man.

Spade J helplessly looked at Vanessa, who understood him as well as a worm in his stomach, shook his head, and sat down heavily at the table:

"Just like your mother, I don't have many years left, the future belongs to you young people, and even if I wanted to worry, I couldn't manage it.

Fighting is not as good as card games!

I've been playing cards with people all night, haven't been anywhere, don't know what happened, I'm already an old fool.

But..."

The old man picked up the first card, and his aura suddenly changed, looking at the other three young people at the table, a glint of gold flashed in his eyes:

"I bet, my gambling luck today will be very good.

Hope you kids brought enough Gold Pounds, the old man intends to dominate the table!"

....

Outside Cedar Palace, in an ostensibly unrelated suburban manor, reformist faction and some neutral faction officers and soldiers were already crowded together.

"Count, the Church Faction commander of the Royal Capital Garrison Corps has already been intoxicated ahead of time by Miss Teris the Succubus, other potentially obstructive key figures and their families have been successfully detained.

The Protective Army of the Church and Tribunal directly managed by the Church have been misled by our display of weakness, now located eighty kilometers from the Royal Capital under bait restraint.

The Cardinal Archbishop is not stationed at the Royal Palace, but tonight is holding an impromptu meeting with key members at Roschild Cathedral.

The neutral faction's old Prime Minister Drotz feigned illness and did not leave during the Church Faction's suppression of patriots, and after three beast tides, most neutral faction military chiefs and nobility have completely shifted to our side.

The operation to cleanse the Royal Capital can start."

Having experienced three beast tides, Count Hodalan, fully transformed into King Byron's top fanboy, stood in military uniform, wielding a divinely radiant axe gun before the massive troop.

Scanning over the young faces, immensely gratified that the country still has hope.

Indeed, with continuous damage to national interests, the reformist faction within the Three Kingdoms has been rapidly rising since years ago.

They have long been at odds with the Church, not just for a day or two.

Moreover, the reformist faction has a vast foundation of Bayfolk, and even with a king devoted to the Church supporting national integration and conversion, currently the Bayfolk proportion within the country still exceeds 90%.

Due to lack of strong higher-level support to rally, the reformist faction remained scattered.

"But!"

The young Count met gazes filled with vitality and determination, silently said to himself:

"But today is different.

The King of the Wild Hunt is our Bayfolk reformist faction's sun, he will guide us from one victory to the next!"

After checking synchronized pocket watches, confirming the prearranged action time had arrived.

Through Byron's independent network support and secret communication channels, he contacted operation troops in various major cities of Three Kingdoms. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

In his vision, hundreds of youthful officer avatars, mostly under thirty, popped up.

Count Hodalan spoke gravely, giving the final pre-battle rally to his direct lineage forces and all action personnel:

"Gentlemen, our Kalmar Union of Three Nations has reached the crucial moment of life and death!

Within the Union, Church Faction, deceiving Her Majesty the Queen fighting outside, enforcing terror reign inside, over the last week alone, our comrades have bled, perished every day.

Externally, the Sea of Monsters before us grows more unfamiliar, within a month we've already faced three beast tides.

With the Era Transition, increasingly more dangers will arrive in succession.

The Church Faction is strong internally, weak externally, if not for the King of the Wild Hunt's intervention, Kalmar Triad's coastal regions would have long fallen.
