The Strongest Dull Prince’s Secret Battle for the Throne

“WOAHHHHHHHH!!”

Gordon led his suicide squad toward Leo’s army.

However, he didn’t rush in head-on.

Leo had split his army in two to chase William.

The one Gordon is attacking is the one tasked with pursuing them.

“CHARGE! TO ME!!”

Blood spills from Gordon’s mouth as he wields his sword at the forefront.

The wounds that Leo inflicted on him have opened but that doesn’t stop him.

After all, he can’t afford to stop his subordinates behind him.

“LEONARDDDDDDDDD!!!”

Gordon rallies himself up and shouts in a loud voice.

He is trying to stop them from pursuing William.

If Gordon focuses his attack on the pursuit unit alone, it is possible that Leo will chase after William himself and let the pursuit unit deal with him.

That’s why Gordon kept shouting.

To let his brother knows that he is here.

“LEONARDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!”

After several of his screams, his brother’s face came into sight.

However, it was not Leo.

It was Al who was leading the pursuit unit.

Al’s appearance put a smile on Gordon’s face.

He thought that Leo would come out to face him but it was Al instead.

However, instead of approaching, the enemy began to rapidly take distance.

Gordon and his men who had already reached their limit could not follow them.

Then, the enemy deployed archers.

“Even if he is my brother……he can be despicable some time huh.”

It was the development that is most undesirable to him at the moment.

Do not engage in a brawl, rebuild formation and attack from a distance.

His skill is much different than Rolf. Al committed to a despicable tactic exactly because he doesn’t look down on his opponent.

As expected, even Gordon can do nothing about this.

When the arrows were fired, Gordon can only look at them.

However, someone’s back suddenly covered his sight.

A moment after.

He recognized that it was Fidessa who had taken countless arrows instead of him.

“Fidessa!!”

“….please charge on……your last ride……we shall open the path for you…….”

With that said, Fidessa with his body ridden with arrows moves his horse forward.

Gordon’s subordinates followed him.

The arrows continue flying toward them but they do not stop.

Gordon follows their path.

“UOAHHHHHH!!!!”

The enemy’s arrows were relentless.

However, with his men as a shield, Gordon broke through.

“Fidessa–!!”

He could no longer hear the voice of his subordinate.

Gordon rushed into the archer corp while distorting his face.

“CHARGE!!!!”

Gordon’s assault was devilish.

That’s why when he broke through the archer corp, Leo was waiting for him.

Leo descended before Gordon.

His troops surround them.

They gave up pursuing William and decided to defeat Gordon here.

“So you want the credit of defeating me huh! If you chase William, you might be able to get him too, you know!”

“I’m not seeking the credit. I am only here because I acknowledge you.”

Leo holds up his sword.

And assault Gordon on top of Noir.

However, Gordon counterattacked.

Their swords collided.

It was a contest of power and Gordon flicked Leo away.

Getting thrown off Noir, Leo landed on the ground.

His hands were incredibly numb.

Gordon’s swing was so strong that he couldn’t believe that it was a blow from someone who is at death’s door.

“It’s heavy right…..that’s the weight of mine and my subordinates’ lives……..if you can take it then show it to me!!!!”

Saying so, Gordon gallops his horse toward Leo and slashes down.

Gordon’s greatest strength is offensive.

His strongest point that has never been demonstrated until now is being shown in its full glory.

Leo also puts up a fight but as if that is exactly what he wants, Gordon brandishes his sword in return.

In the end, Leo’s attack couldn’t stop Gordon’s

The blow was heavy and Leo was blown away each time he received Gordon’s sword.

Time after time, Leo was blown away.

“Ugh…..!”

“Stand up……stand up and face me!!”

It was the words that he once said to Leo.

Gordon gets down his horse.

He wanted to fight him on equal terms.

Like in the past.

“HAAAAA!!”

“NAIVE!!”

Leo gets up and launches a series of attacks.

It was a continuous attack that won’t leave his opponent any room to breathe.

However, Gordon overcame it and kicked Leo.

“You think that you can become an emperor when you can’t even beat me…..? Don’t make me laugh! The Emperor of the Empire is not that weak! Do you think that a naive and weak person like you is suitable for the throne!!?”

“I’m not…….the old me anymore.”

“Then prove it……I am not going to approve an emperor that is weaker than me!!”

Saying so, Gordon slowly walks toward Leo.

Leo could feel an indescribable pressure from him.

It was the same awe-inspiring feeling he once felt.

An atmosphere of a general who leads his subordinates on the frontline.

The pride he carries as a general who stood on the battlefield with many comrades behind him.

His sword has that weight behind it.

Leo was blown away many times without being able to take it.

However, Leo did not give up.

He continues to receive the blows until he is eventually able to take them.

After that began a fierce exchange of blows.

“UOAHHHH!!!!”

“HAAAAAA!!!!!”

Each blow is capable of knocking away his consciousness if he does not pay attention. Leo received them and launched his own counterattack.

Still, to Gordon who has already prepared for death, a half-hearted attack will not work.

Even so, Leo did not run from Gordon.

Gordon also seems to smile at such Leo.

Unlike his rotten self, his brother grew up properly.

He had taught his brother that a general can never give up. If the general does not give up then their soldier will not give up either.

Leo was faithfully practicing that teaching. After all, he always has an option to keep his distance and wait for Gordon to exhaust himself.

However, Leo did not use such a tactic. After all, they are being watched by the soldiers.

Leo wants to defeat his brother head-on because he was told that he would not be recognized as an emperor otherwise.

And Gordon is now beginning to recognize it.

The fact that his younger brother has gotten stronger.

While desperately holding on to his consciousness, Gordon squeezed out his last bit of power and pushed on.

It was a serious blow aimed at Leo’s neck.

However, Leo avoided it and dived into Gordon’s chest.

Once again, Leo’s sword pierced Gordon.

This time, it pierced his heart.

A perfect blow.

“……good work……as expected……of my younger brother……..”

“Gordon….aniue……why…..?”

“Forgive me…….I was a fool……for all the things I made you go through……I’m sorry…….”

Gordon raised his face up after saying so.

Al was in his sight.

Al bows to Gordon.

When he saw that, Gordon smiled and spoke to Leo.

“I had the luxury of choosing how I die……I was fortunate……..to see my brother grow up on a battlefield……”

“If you think that way…..then why the rebellion……?”

“I wonder why…….but, what’s done is done……at my final moment, I want you to show me…….your……victory……..”

With that said, Gordon pushes Leo and removes Leo’s sword from his body.

And just like that, he fell back.

However, his eyes are always fixed on Leo.

As he was being watched by his brother, Leo raised his word high to the sky.

“The rebel! Gordon Lakes Adler has been defeated by the Eighth Prince Leonard!!”

After burning the figure of his brother in his eyes, Gordon gently shut his eyes.

His younger brother has surpassed him.

A strange feeling of satisfaction overwhelmed Gordon.

Then, a voice reaches Gordon’s ears.

“You are a muscle brain as always

“Don’t say that…..this is the only thing I can do after all.”

“Well, it’s fine as long as you are satisfied right? Let’s leave the rest to these children.”

“Right….let’s leave the rest to our younger brothers.”

Saying so, Gordon’s consciousness slowly faded away.

Thus the Gordon Rebellion that began in the Imperial Capital finally reached its end.
