King Mercer was unable to reply to the question asked by his wife, Queen Maria. What she had just said was indeed very reasonable and also logical, because thinking deeply, the Silver Kingdom wasn\'t really the territory itself, but rather the people themselves living in the territory. Who would even bother calling a place with no people as a Kingdom? No one, because no territory could be called a Village, Town, City, Capital, Kingdom, or even an Empire without any people living in such places. Of course, the Ruler of the territory is considered as one of the people, but would someone be called a Ruler as well without any people? Obviously, they won\'t, because a Ruler can only be called as such when they have people to rule.

However, King Mercer wouldn\'t just stay silent, he replied, "Don\'t you see, that\'s what he is doing right now. My brother Erskine here is defending the people!"

Queen Olivia, Queen Maria, and Madam Silva can\'t help rolling their eyes the moment they heard of King Mercer\'s words. As if they don\'t know the truth behind King Erskine\'s actions.

At the very beginning of this war, specifically, when the Kingdom Protection Array was destroyed by the Black organization, King Erskine himself stayed in Silver City while letting only the respective City Lords of each city to defend for themselves. That was the real reason why White River City, Green Weed City, and even the Will City fell easily in the first place, because King Erskine only let the soldiers of those cities defend against the Magical Beast Hoard\'s attack.

Even the four Fortresses had only decided to lend a hand when things finally became worst. Like for example, the Eastern Fortress only lend a hand to Green Weed City when the Shark Cemetery unexpectedly decided to attack. The Southeast Fortress only decided to save Fourth Prince Ethan and Princess Elaine from the Blue Coral City when the Mischievous Lion organization had the idea of laying its hands on the city so that they would put the both of them into a dangerous place, hence, they were able to easily persuade the reinforcement from Blue Fin Kingdom to lend a helping hand to their Silver royal family. The Southwest Fortress didn\'t lend a hand to Blacksmoke City when they requested for help. And as for the Southern Fortress, they were the most safest territory at that time, but still, they didn\'t bother lending a hand to any other territories that needed help or even thought of fighting against the Mischievous Lion organization.

Truth be told, this was the reason why at the beginning of the war the Mischievous Lion organization easily convinced the entire Blacksmoke City, which includes the Blacksmoke Noble Household and the other Noble Households over there, to join their organization. As well as the reason why the entire Blue Coral City at first also decided to accept joining the Mischievous Lion organization, though in the end, with the help of the Blue Fin Kingdom, the Blue Coral City was returned back to the Silver royal family\'s hand, but still, it doesn\'t remove the fact that they were indeed once have been helped by the Mischievous Lion organization.

As the war continues, the Silver royal family only decided to make a move personally, still excluding King Erskine, when they finally only have a few remaining territories. But at that moment, it was already too late, because everything was already completely in the hands of their opponents, specifically the Mischievous Lion organization and Black organization, which again still didn\'t make King Erskine moved.

It was only at this moment when the war has arrived in the Silver City that King Erskine finally decided to make a move personally.

Thinking deeply, what King Mercer had just said was indeed correct; King Erskine has indeed defended his people, but only at this moment, which is unfortunately already too late to prove that he\'s the rightful ruler of the Silver Kingdom. King Erskine deciding to stand up now doesn\'t show anymore that he cares for the Silver Kingdom, but rather he only cares about his own territory.

King Erskine\'s words in the past saying that he would fight against the Mischievous Lion organization because he wasn\'t sure whether they are good for the Human race or not has now turned into a complete joke. There is no good for the Human race or not, it was only good for him and the Silver royal family or not.

Queen Olivia and Madam Silva wanted to speak those words to King Mercer, to make him realize just how foolish he was to get tricked by King Erskine. But Queen Maria stopped them with her hand.

"I know my husband better than anyone present here. Mercer wouldn\'t be persuaded by mere words or any arguments, the only language that exists in his world is violence." Queen Maria explained, "If we really want to persuade him, then it would be through our strength. Hehehe, back then, this was the exact reason why I fell in love with him. He just proved all of his words with actions. But now, I couldn\'t help having regrets about it, because he turns into a muscle-head." She can\'t help shaking her head in disappointment.

"Then would we really be fighting against your husband?" Queen Olivia curiously asked.

"I guess that\'s the only choice we could have..." Queen Maria replied.

"But wouldn\'t this spark a fight between the two of you?" Madam Silva followed up with another question.

"Spark a fight?" Queen Maria can\'t help chuckling, "We, Mermaid race, settle our fights in a different way. We also don\'t involve other people who aren\'t related to this matter by using tricks and schemes. After this war is over, we would definitely settle this score in the arena, and after that, there won\'t be anymore arguments or displeasures, because all of those would be left in the arena."

"Oh, so what you have agreed to stay in the arena, stays in the arena?" Elder Rain can\'t help butting in.

Queen Maria just nodded her head in response.

"Okay!" Elder Rain said with a smile on his face. He really thought at first that he would need to hold back in fighting against King Mercer in fear of causing Queen Maria to hate him. But hearing her reply, it seems like there\'s no need to bother about it anymore. Such a unique way of handling things, if only we, the Human race, was like that, then problems would easily be settled and more importantly, we would be more united.

"The Mermaid race really has a unique way of doing things." Queen Olivia can\'t help commenting.

"Indeed, my mind has now been broadened by your words, hahaha!" Madam Silva added with a laugh.

"Not only the Mermaid race, but this way of settling matters was also and always been the way of the Merlfolks," Queen Maria explained, "With how big the ocean is, there is enough territory for every Merlfolks race to share. But if they really want to have a share, they of course needed to prove it through their strengths. Think about it, the sea-dwelling Magical Beast. Do you really think by speaking only would be able to make them back off? Obviously, they don\'t! It is only through fighting could we make them retreat."

Hearing Queen Maria\'s words, Queen Olivia, Madam Silva, and Elder Rain nodded their heads as they easily understood what she meant.

In the land, there is not enough space for each of the countless of different inland Foreign races, including Human race, to share with each other. There are just too many races living on the land of the Celestial World compared to the ones living in the water. Even the air wasn\'t spared by the inland Foreign races.

However, in the ocean, the only Foreign races competing with the territories were the Merlfolks races and the sea-dwelling Magical Beast. And with how big the Celestial World is already, just imagine how much bigger ocean it would have. Even if the Merlfolks races have enough strength to keep on expanding their territory for a millennium straight, it would still not be enough time to completely have control over the entire ocean of the Celestial World. That\'s just how big the ocean is of the Celestial World.

Though the Merlfolks races were having such good circumstances in terms of territory, that still doesn\'t necessarily mean that they are a lot more stronger than the inland Foreign races.

The inland Foreign races are a lot more powerful than Merlfolks in many aspects because they continuously fought with each other, experiencing all sorts of different fighting styles of all the other Foreign races, and many more. And even if the Merlfolks races have the home advantage in any water territory, it still doesn\'t necessarily mean they could win a fight once an inland Foreign race goes into their territory.

"What are you all talking about over there? Won\'t it be rude if you don\'t include us?" King Mercer can\'t help himself from asking when he saw his opponents talking with each other while laughing from time to time.

"I think they are not treating us seriously." King Erskine immediately assumed.

Elder Rain looked at both King Erskine and King Mercer as he said with a chuckle, "Hahaha, no need to bother yourselves. We were only talking about how good the Merlfolk\'s way of settling disputes is. Imagine, if you dare go against your wife, the simplest way to settle this matter is to actually just fight in the arena. Once the fight is over, no matter who wins or loses, everything would be settled."

Gulp!

A gulping sound from King Mercer was suddenly heard when Elder Rain mentioned the way the Merlfolks race settles disputes.

King Mercer turned to look at King Erskine and said, "You better do everything to win this war, because after this I would be having another battle at Blue Fin Kingdom against my wife."

"Brother Mercer, what do you mean another battle with your wife?" King Erskine who doesn\'t know yet what Elder Rain really meant about the Merlfolks good way of settling matters can\'t help himself from asking.

"Just don\'t mind it, let\'s put all our focus into this war!" King Mercer replied to King Erskine with a wryly smile on his face. He really doesn\'t want to say anything anymore because the so-called fight that Elder Rain has mentioned was actually a one-sided beating by his wife to him. What good way of settling matters? Although that indeed exists, but it still depends on the person whether they would follow such a way or not, and his wife, Queen Maria, was one of those kinds of people who doesn\'t follow the norm. One time, he defeated his wife in the arena, but the moment he returned home, he was immediately sent away on a mission to one of the Danger zone of the Blue Fin Kingdom, specifically the Forest of Sea Flames, a place with thousands of sea volcanoes, to retrieve millions of Volcano Fish because she was craving for it. In the end, when he finally returned with millions of Volcano Fish, she only ended up eating one of Volcano Fish while the rest of the Volcano Fish was given to the people of Blue Fin Kingdom.. Ever since then, the so-called fighting in the arena to settle matters became a one-sided beating by his wife to him.
