Revenge Wears a Crown — The Cyprus Trade Choice

Father, Nikki is your biological daughter. You should treat her well. She's just a beggar. You were the princess the royal family raised and recognized. As for her, letting her eat at our table is already more mercy than she deserves. Nikki's return was guided by the Oracle. Put away your selfishness and prejudice.

This is the King of Attica. Family means nothing to him. He only values whoever can benefit the city-state. This time, I'll have my revenge. And the first person I need to win over is him. Nikki, take a seat.

Now that everyone is here, I want your opinion on something. Right now, we have two overseas routes to choose from. First, Cyprus, rich in copper, a crucial resource for our armories. Second, Phoenicia, overflowing with spices and extremely valuable for trade.

Choose one. If we choose wrong, the treasury will bleed dry and Attatica will fall into Kriot, as Crown Prince, you answer first. I choose Cyprus. It is the shortest route, and copper is the lifeblood of our armories. Besides, pirate activity there has dropped sharply. The risk is minimal.

The entire fleet will be wiped out. What did you say? This is a royal council! Who the hell gave a bastard like you permission to speak?
