But along with being attacked everywhere.
They had no choice but to deploy some Earth Knights out.
But these people were deployed out, and within a few days, they mysteriously disappeared.
"Hasnât any information come from the Kingdom side yet?"
An elderly man spoke with a low voice, his face looking somewhat unsightly.
"No!"
After a moment of silence, another elderly man spoke.
"Damn it, why is it so slow this time? Last time the Kingdomâs ennoblement ceremony was completed within ten days."
The old manâs unsightly expression seemed to grow even more intense, and he couldnât help but speak again.
However, at this moment, no one could answer him.
The remaining people in the entire conference room all had anxious and grim expressions.
No one expected the entire Spencer Family to take such a sudden downturn.
The Spencer Family was originally flourishing, but before they could bask in glory, they encountered successive upheavalsâfirst, their strongest member was defeated by Count Engle, and then not long ago, they suffered total army defeat in the Kingdom War.
Following that, the Marquis they trusted also brought their remaining elite and got buried.
Now, the new Marquis ennoblement seems to have been stuck.
At this moment, those big families havenât taken action against them because they are still a Marquis Family.
But if the Kingdomâs ennoblement keeps delaying, the consequences will be hard to say.
"Do you think the Kingdom might have received some news and postponed our ennoblement?"
In the midst of anxiety, a voice suddenly spoke up.
"Impossible!"
The first elderly man spoke again, his words instantly spilling out.
"Nothing is impossible. We attacked Thor Dressrosa, donât forget, now the Dressrosa Family is favored by the King and the three Dukes."
A low voice spoke again.
But at this moment, even the first elderly man opened his mouth but momentarily didnât know what to say.
"Then what should we do?"
After a long while, an old man spoke with a hoarse voice.
"What about those people!"
"Werenât they the ones who urged the Marquis to take action? We followed their requests, now isnât it time for them to fulfill their promises."
Suddenly, a silhouette spoke up again.
"Hmph, I said it before, those guys are unreliable. If we hadnât listened to them, even if the Spencer Family would decline, we wouldnât be in the current predicament."
"Right, those guys arenât so easy to cooperate with."
Along with this voice, soon someone couldnât help but snort coldly.
Then someone echoed in agreement.
"Ferrylon, you werenât saying this before."
"What, you had no objections when deciding to cooperate with them before, now suddenly you do."
"And you, Jesir, why didnât you bring it up before."
"Hmph, I directly mentioned it, but did you listen?"
"Those guys have almost become rats in the sewers, what were you thinking, wanting to cooperate with them; once discovered, do you know the consequences?"
"Consequences? Could the consequences be worse than our entire family being wiped out?"
"Arenât you aware of how many families weâve offended? Before, when Uncle was there, it was fine, but Uncle couldnât come back; our family will eventually be doomed. Are we just going to wait for death without collaborating with them?"
"Furthermore, donât forget, when that person came over, did they give us a choice? Did we have a choice?"
As voices spoke one after another, the entire conference room quickly fell into an argument.
This argument persisted.
The middle-aged man sitting at the head couldnât help but frown slightly.
"Enough!"
A low shout sounded.
As the middle-aged man spoke, the entire conference room suddenly quieted down.
"Everyone, now is not the time to consider such matters. We should think about how to handle the upcoming crisis."
Looking at the figures in the conference room, the middle-aged man couldnât help but sigh. At this moment, he still suppressed the irritation in his heart, speaking softly.
"We have no choice but to rely on them this time."
"In that case, I will personally go over and negotiate with them."
And after his voice spoke, someone still stood out, speaking softly.
And as he spoke, someone instinctively wanted to oppose, but after opening their mouth, they still closed it.
After all, apart from this, he couldnât think of any other way to deal with it.
"Let it be so, Uncle, you should personally go there once!"
The middle-aged man rubbed his temples, speaking softly.
"Alright!"
The silhouette nodded, agreeing directly.
"Twelve, how should we respond to the Dressrosa Family side?"
And after the silhouette responded, someone frowned and spoke.
"Hmph, how should we respond? For the Spencer Family to be in such a predicament, itâs still caused by their Dressrosa Family."
"Dreaming of twenty thousand Gold Coins, tell them itâs simply impossible. We didnât attack them; should they explain why our Marquis Lord died at the Frost Moon Province border?"
As someone spoke, someone couldnât help but snort coldly.
They were extremely resentful towards the Dressrosa Family, especially now that the Dressrosa Family had become a Marquis Family, the resentment grew even stronger.
"This!"
And listening to someone snort coldly, someone hesitated.
After all, at this moment, the Spencer Familyâs power has already been infinitely reduced, offending the Dressrosa Family is in no way appropriate.
"Ferrylon, you donât believe that even if we compensate twenty thousand Gold Coins, the Dressrosa Family will just let it go."
"Even if we pay the twenty thousand Gold Coins, it wonât end this way."
The elderly man who spoke first couldnât help but snort coldly.
Others also fell silent slightly; the reality was indeed like this.
Even if they refused to acknowledge it, the Spencer Family attacked Thor Dressrosa, but the fact is the fact.
Not to mention the evidence is conclusive, even if there werenât evidence, as long as suspicion is cast, the grudge between them has already been formed; itâs not up to them to decide when to let it go.
In this situation, the Spencer Family people didnât even want to cover it up; in their view, covering it up wouldnât work anyway, so itâs better to just let it be.
Maybe they could target the Dressrosa Family strongly enough to gain support from other families opposing Dressrosa.
But obviously, they didnât realize one thing, which was that their current strength was no longer what it used to be.
If it was before, such actions would indeed provoke shared sentiments with other families. After all, the Dressrosa Family had not offended a few families as they developed to their current extent. Especially now that the Dressrosa Family is about to rise to a strong Marquis, and even a top-level Marquis, touching a greater range of powers.
It was easy to form a hostile alliance.
But a hostile alliance, thatâs also among equal levels.
And the Spencer Family now clearly doesnât fit.
Not only that, the Spencer Family sending people to search for those figures directly couldnât even see them.
As for the previous so-called promises.
At this moment, they are equivalent to farts.
And such an outcome has undoubtedly made the Spencer Family even more panicked.
And as the Spencer Family finally sensed something was wrong, other Nobility finally couldnât hold back and began to take further action.
Particularly upon learning that the Spencer Familyâs new Marquis hasnât been ennobled yet, there were no more reservations.
