[Demon Continent, Battlefield]
As the war between two sides rage on, casualties counts started to rise on such an intolerable scale, due to that many soldiers and officers who were left behind in the camp started to panic as they saw that the casualty detector magic they got has now passed 2581 dead and still rising
Obviously the news regarding the death of King Emperor Ergo also reached their ears which even broke their morale at the moment
With that all authority to lead the officers inside this room all lies on the hands of Bruno the son of Duke Agra
"Today hence forth, I Bruno will lead you, I'll take command in this camp, did you hear me? Now get back to work"
As Bruno said those words, he then self proclaimed himself as the next in command since King Emperor Ergo trusted him, nevertheless all the people inside the co clearly knew the personality of Bruno which sometimes disgust them
As this happened some brave officers on the back suddenly started to gossip
"Hey! If King Emperor Ergo is dead... Do you think all power of the empire will land on the Queen?"
"Unlikely, I'll take a guess that the Queen Empress will pass the leadership to her daughter, thus turning her into a ruler"
"But the Queen Empress daughter is friends with the woman that Bruno has interest right?"
"I think it's more like acquaintances"
"I heard that the woman that Bruno liked actually hated him due to his guts"
"Really? Hahaha! Great after all we all know just how much of a suck up he is, he's despicable"
"Wait! If that's the case, then if that woman told her case to the princess then doesn't that mean Bruno will be hunted down? If that's the case maybe in the new empire we would be safe if we sacrifice him for our lives"
Hearing such a crazy suggestion, the soldiers and officers started to mull over that idea as it spreads throughout the room in a couple of minutes
When that happened all eyes started to gather back towards Bruno with am intense heat of survival
"Oi! What are you doing? Return to you work!" Shouted Bruno oblivious to their thoughts
Just as he was about to get even more angry, one officers suddenly acted up
"For our survival! Capture him! We need to hand him over to the new ruler!!!"
"!!!"
Hearing that more than twenty people inside the room tackled Bruno causing the latter to shout in anger due to their actions
To shut him up one officer started gagging him and tied him up before locking him inside a prison
