Chapter 324 - 0324: Assassination (Asking for monthly votes)



In the Throne Hall.

Two corpses have been briefly cleaned and put together.

They are Fenwick and Flora, siblings from the Drake family. Their expressions peaceful as if they are merely in a deep sleep.

Duke Frank stands before the throne, lost in thought.

Today, under his command, the North Territory’s army achieved a resounding victory.

They shattered Dragon City, defeated the Royal Army and the Western Region’s forces, and finally stormed into the palace.

“But… this is not what I wanted.”

Duke Frank’s expression suddenly darkened. “Which idiot dared to murder Duke Drake? And who was the fool who forced Queen Flora into death?”

The queen, though a Kingslayer, needed trial not death amid the tumult of war.

And Fenwick is no ordinary man; as one of the only four Dukes in the kingdom, he has brothers, children, and loyal vassals who are still in the western territories.

Once they learn of what has happened, they will stop at nothing to avenge him against the Wolf Fort!

Although these two forces have never been friendly, it is a completely different situation now.

“It’s you! You’re pushing the kingdom into the abyss of war!”

Frank glared at the advancing Gran, roaring in anger, “Originally…we only needed to capture Duke Drake and try Flora Drake. We could have held all the righteousness and supported a king who is close to us, solving everything perfectly. But now, you’ve ruined everything.”

Nobility is the art of compromise.

As long as Fenwick were left alive, holding him captive would easily subjugate the Western Region.

But now, the difficulty has increased exponentially.

Moreover, breaking the ‘unwritten rule’ of not beheading the leader during nobility wars upset the traditional and ceremonial Duke Frank even more.

“Times have changed, my father!”

Gran robes in white, holding a cross-shaped sword, looking high-spirited; “Dragon and its branches have ruled this kingdom for too long. It needs a new owner, and our Mitis family is the most suitable.”

“Shut your mouth, or I will hang you up on the flagpole….”

Frank roared again: “And most importantly, where is Princess Messiah?”

With the death of the two princes, Princess Messiah has become the only legal heir of King Felitlin III. She holds immense symbolism and influence having officially ascended the throne.

In Frank’s plan, though she couldn’t continue to hold the position of a queen due to the crimes of her mother, she could join the church of the Mother Earth Goddess as a penitential monk, after renouncing all her secular powers.

Moreover, she must be kept under the supervision of the North Territory’s forces to prevent her from being manipulated.

After all, the person who formally ascends to the throne will still be Messiah!

But now, this little girl is missing?

“She… is missing. According to the testimonies of several maids, Princess Messiah should have been in Throne Hall with Flora… but she disappeared. I checked, there are no secret passages here…”

Gran looked extremely puzzled.

“Then, we have no choice but to face the worst possibility, that is, Messiah has fled to the west and joined the people of the Drake family… The kingdom must undergo another brutal civil war.”

Frank sighed.

Unlike the North Territory that has completely mobilized its forces, the Drake family still retains considerable strength in the west.

Moreover, fighting in the enemy’s territory will inevitably weaken their power to a certain extent.

“Your Grace!”

Just when father and son were pondering over the situation, a knight ran in anxiously, “The wizard… Su Lu Pottery is outside! He announced his intention to execute Gran!”

“Me?”

Gran’s face tightened.

“Call Rophis and Erik as soon as possible.” Duke Frank looked serious, “My son, you should change into a regular soldier’s uniform and leave here immediately!”

“Yes…”

Although he was reluctant, Gran still agreed.

But the next moment, he froze in his actions.

Su Lu had somehow already entered the Throne Hall, his mocking gaze on him, “Little Wolf Lord… how does it feel to be successful and famous?”

“Sir Su Lu!”

Frank spoke solemnly: “What are you planning to do? Assassinate a duke’s heir? This will make you infamous across the continent.”

He was hinting at acknowledging Su Lu’s noble status, hoping to save his son’s life in this way.

“I’m sorry…but actually, I don’t care at all about any title!”

Su Lu chuckled and suddenly moved forward.

“No!”

Gran yelled, waving his crucifix sword.

He was quite strong, even reaching the level of an official knight, but he was no match for Su Lu.

Thud!

Su Lu gently made a quick move and plunged the dagger into Gran’s body, watching him fall to the ground with a grimace: “The cruel beginning always ends cruelly…How does it feel to fall from the peak?”

“Ah!”

Only then did Frank, who was roaring, rush forward waving his giant sword.

Su Lu sidestepped, raised his right leg, and kicked the duke away.

“Protect the Duke!”

“There’s an assassin!”

All this happened so quickly that by the time the alert soldiers reacted, Gran was already lying in a pool of blood.

Boom!

Flicker of silver fighting Qi.

From within the light ball, a stern-faced Rophis rushed in, seeing the body on the ground, roared and drew his sword to stab Su Lu.

A giant white raven skimmed the sky but only crossed an afterimage.

“Not enough, you’re far from Edward!”

With a flash, Su Lu had already reached the door of the Throne Hall.

“Shoot the arrows!”

A rain of arrows fell, only to helplessly pass through the afterimage and stick into the ground.

“He’s over there!”

“Surround him!”

“Where are the knights? Engage!”

From the outside, the roar of the army was heard, this was the experience of dealing with high-ranking knights.

Even silver or even golden knights, there’s always a time when their fighting Qi runs out!

“To assassinate a young duke within the army and leave unscathed, truly worthy of the title of Crazy Tutor!”

Erik with a severed hand sighed and appeared next to Rophis.

“Chase him, cooperate with the army, leave him behind at all costs.”

Duke Frank slowly got up, each word seemed to be squeezed out through clenched teeth.

“As you command, Duke!”

Both of them rushed out on command, only to find that Su Lu had only reached the edge of the palace.

It seemed that the ability to teleport has a limited range?

They rejoiced in their hearts and chased after him.

Su Lu flew over the high palace wall and into a residential area.

Even if he deliberately slowed down, the number of people who could catch up with him could be counted on one hand.

At this point, only Rophis and Erik were left.

He suddenly turned around, a faint smile appeared on his face.

“Not good…”

A chill ran through Rophis’ heart: “This is…a trap? We are too far away from the army! They cannot provide support in time!”
