Before the meeting with Arthur, Emperor Richard called out the Imperial Council to have an emergency meeting at the Imperial Palace.
The kings from the Affiliate Kingdoms were also present at the meeting hall to discuss a serious matter regarding Arthur's wrath that might befall upon them after the incident at the Grand Final Round.
From hundred Kings of the Affiliate Kingdoms, only half of them were present, the other half was already shifted to Arthur's good side.
They were afraid of Arthur's power that he displayed the other day, and skeptical about their incompetent emperor who ruled the Bezant Empire.
Enraged upon knowing this, Emperor Richard punched his table, making a hole the size of his hand. "That brat king must be stopped! We have to kill him before he causes more damage to our empire!"
