Chapter 413: Am I Beheaded?

"But the premise of all this is," Victor said, "Prince Philip is truly dead."

"Exactly."

Annan nodded.

And if Philip were feigning death, then the situation would be completely different.

Whether Philip was truly dead or feigning death, his political career was already dead—the public would never accept a person "who had died once" to lead them, which is even less acceptable than accepting a puppet king.

Because they could not even confirm if this person "is the king or an imposter."

Ordinary people would not be aware of Spells and Great Calamity Curios.

They would be even less aware of how backwards the civilization of the people of Aesirland was before the Elves arrived on the continent... They could only vaguely know that "this continent was once ruled by the Elves."

But they certainly would not know that it was after the collapse of the great barrier and the fall of the imperial city that today's five great nations came into existence.
