Right after the sound of that explosion, the entire castle seemed to shake.
All of the ministers and generals only cared about their own safety, not a single one of them cared about the safety of the king.
The king also didn't give a single trace of care about the safety of his ministers and generals, he just cared about his own safety as well.
He even went as far as hiding behind the throne after the large explosion rang out.
It was only after the echoes started to disappear and the castle stopped shaking that people slowly came out from their hiding places to see what was happening.
The king was the first to speak as he shouted from behind his throne, "Protect me! Protect me! My life is the most important!"
The king's voice had been filled with a trace of annoyance and that was because he had actually been abandoned by his ministers and generals. He had been annoyed that none of them had come over to protect him with their lives like good subordinates.
