Chapter 545 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 545

The King of Aspen, Argius Bona, reflects on the political struggles of his nation, which is caught between the influence of the Empire and the southern power of Rihinstetten, while also struggling against the pervasive influence of the Church of Abundance. Argius has long dreamed of securing the fertile Green Pearl to ensure Aspen's independence and prosperity, but his ambitions were dismissed by others as impossible. This changed when he met the young King of Naurillia, Krang, who proposed absurdly grand goals like erasing the Demon Realm and ending all continental wars. Initially, Argius viewed these claims as madness, but Krang's charisma and the presence of the Knight of the Iron Wall, Encrid, shifted his perspective. Krang proposes a pragmatic solution to Aspen's food scarcity by suggesting a border adjustment to secure farming zones, using Encrid's reputation as a deterrent against the Empire and the South. Krang challenges Argius to stop living in a 'cave' of fear and to dream alongside him. Moved by Krang's vision and the realization of the scale of his opponent's ambition, Argius abandons his defensive posture. He acknowledges that the peace and stability provided by Encrid's presence have saved his people from bloodshed. The chapter concludes with Argius expressing profound gratitude to Encrid, recognizing him as the true architect of this transformative moment.
