An emergency meeting was immediately convened in the Imperial Palace, including Menia, all elders of the royal family with dragon blood.
"I think we can hold the investiture ceremony for the new Guardian in two days."
"A great suggestion. In that case, suddenly summoning most of the Imperial Guardians back to the Imperial City won't seem so abrupt." Elder Ivan nodded and said.
"But how do we handle the gap in combat power of various provinces once the local Imperial Guardians leave? Those cults will surely take the opportunity to act, and the common people will likely..." Another royal elder frowned and said.
"We can't care about that now, choosing the lesser of two evils is our best option." Elder Ivan sighed and said.
"I suggest we also call back Crown Walker this time." At this moment, Menia, who was in the main seat, spoke up.
"Crown Walker? But if he leaves, what if Queen Trebiz of the Wind Roc makes a move?" Another royal elder asked.
