Alexander's decision to relocate a large part of the royal family, especially the male members, from Tibias to Zanzan was of course based on long, historical precedents. A defeated royal family, weakened both in manpower and prestige was a very ripe target to be usurped by a branch family who would be able to rally many of the frustrated nobles around them, promising them a second chance at freedom and liberation. Alexander wished to remove that firewood far, far before it had even the slightest…-

Alexander had all by himself determined the life partner of his friend and general, Menes. That too with just a few words inside a room and not a single word of consultation from the man in question. If he had been in modern times, it would have certainly caused an outrage no matter how loyal the subordinate might have been. However, in this time period, this was very natural. In fact, the lord choosing one's life partner was seen as a great honor, as it meant the couple would have his…

Chapter 906 Facing Philips's unfaltering demand, Alexander did at one point consider relenting and taking one of the Tibian princesses as his wife as a compromise. He in hindsight had felt that turning both unmarried princesses of a royal family into concubines might have sounded a bit too extreme. Especially given the royal family was still alive and still held some power. When Alexander had first revealed his intentions some of the nobles too had expressed a bit of dissatisfaction. But back…

(Author's note- I fixed some formatting errors in the last chapter. The demands Alexander made were supposed to be numbered but Webnovel somehow did not copy that. There were no changes to the story, but it will make the reading easier) Reading Alexander's top 5 demands was quick to give Philips a lot to think about. There was nothing there so outrageous to set him instantly on fire. But there were some finer prints there that he could not agree with no matter what. And until they were resolved,…

Perseus's prolonged catatonic state did intrigue Alexander as even though all his external wounds had already healed, including that small cut on his chest, the man still showed no signs of waking up. This appeared most unusual for the doctors present who could not find anything wrong with him. At least that was the diagnosis they made with the limited tools and knowledge available to them. So this left Alexander to wonder if the man had hit some critical part of his brain while falling down. But…

Alexander's heart danced craftily upon hearing that the nobles swear that they will consider the crown prince Philips's words as Perseus's. This was exactly what he wanted. For it meant that finally he could have a fruitful discussion about the terms of surrender with Philips without the nobles able to later use the excuse that Philips was not the king and so his word did not count. Alexander had not staged any of this discussion, but he certainly had tried to cleverly steer the conversation along…

Chapter 902 The Queen Mother was not unaware of the whisper some men in court were trying to feed into Ptolomy's ears. "Your Majesty, Tibias should belong to us. To Adhan! For a foreigner to take it all for himself… isn't it too much?" "That deal about Alexander controlling Tibias. It was made under duress! There is no reason we must follow it." "Yes. Your Majesty, you should take the lands from him." These types of insane words were being spewed and although the Queen Mother and Pasha Farzah…

?The concept of a victory parade after a great military triumph was of course present in almost all cultures. But most did not do anything as elaborate as the celebrations wished by Alexander. Alexander wanted to copy the Roman style almost step by step and thus sent the appropriate instructions to Cambyses to prepare it. And as she read more and more of all the things she was asked to complete, the lady also began to understand some of the more nuanced things Alexander had built, such as,…

?It was nearly a week after entering the capital that the celebrations were finally concluded and let me tell you, those seven days were truly wild. Eating and drinking all sorts of food, meat, cheese, and bread to one's heart content during the day, while laying with various beautiful women at night, Alexander would be lying if he said he was not even slightly rueful to see the party finally end. Alexander must have laid with at least 20 different women during that time, possibly more, as he was so…

Edit in 30 minutes The impure thoughts invading Alexander regarding the mature woman only lasted an ephemeral second, for it was just the by-product of his lust speaking. The man had not yet had the chance to relieve himself even a month after the ordeal and thus when faced with such a beautiful but defenseless victim, his primal instinct urged him to indulge Imaginary flashes of what it would be like to have the woman under him, or atop him, or kneeling in front of him all subconsciously raced…
