Hail the King

Seeing how strictly the poor neighborhood was guarded by soldiers, Danielle, who was sitting in front of one fancy magic carriage, was shocked. “What is going on? Damn it! Could it be that the Tolemy Family is trying to go back on their words? And they sent troops over to kill us all? We should have left right away! Now, we wasted so much time buying these items...... What should we do?”

Owen and Raul, who were guarding this carriage from the two sides on their black horses, looked at each other and smiled.

“Hahaha! Sister Danielle, don’t worry! Even if old Tolemy has 10,000 times the courage, he won’t dare to do anything,” Raul said with disdain as if the soldiers in front of him were nothing in his eyes.

“Sister Danielle, you say that because you don’t know what King Alexander His Majesty is capable of in the Zenit Empire, and you don’t understand what kind of status Brother Philip holds in the Chambord Kingdom. To be frank, even the leader of the Tolemy Family who has absolute power in Hot Spring Gate is far below Philip’s level. Haha! They wouldn’t dare to do anything! Unless everyone at the Tolemy Family is stupid, and none of them want to live! If Brother Philip wants, he could put this bloody noble family into history in a few hours on his own!”

Michael Owen was one year younger than Raul, but he sounded a lot bolder.

Danielle was stunned.

She realized that she still hadn’t adapted to the huge change.

Her friends who she lived with in that courtyard about half a year ago all transformed. They had trouble finding enough food for everyone before, but they were now confident warriors. They were able to fight for themselves in this chaotic world, and their powerful stances shocked Danielle continuously.

“Do you all want to die? Get out of here!” Seeing the magic carriages approaching without signs of stopping, the military commander who shouted before dashed forward and slashed the horsewhip in his hand at Owen with viciousness on his face. Like a vicious snake, this horsewhip dashed toward Owen without mercy.

“Back off!” Owen said as he waved his hand.

A dash of green wind-elemental energy blade shot out and cut this horsewhip into exact 20 pieces. Then, it passed by this commander’s ear and cut off a few strands of his hair.

This control of energy was shocking to everyone in the area.

This commander was terrified, and he almost fell off his horse. As he got mad and was about to command his soldiers to shoot arrows, he suddenly realized something......

He suddenly realized that the two black knights in front of him were wearing unique armor. Although the two sets of armor looked ordinary and a little rough, they were actually made from the fur of high-level demon beasts. Black flames would appear around them when they were under the sun, and vague magic energy fluctuations could be sensed. Also, the horses these two black knights were riding on were taller than ordinary war horses and were more energetic.

“The King of Chambord’s black knights?” This terrifying thought appeared in this commander’s head, and his face instantly paled. He jumped off his horse weakly and asked with a flattering smile on his face, “You guys... two misters, are you envoys from Chambord?”

“Go away!”

Owen rode his horse forward without even looking at this commander.

This assassin who was only 14 years old was a little extreme. Since he had been around the king for more than half a year now, he picked up some of the king’s attitudes. He truly admired soldiers who were unyielding, and he hated these people who were arrogant in front of people who they thought were weak and soft in front of people who they believed were powerful.

“Yes... Sir, this way. Please... Quickly! Move away! Let these two gentlemen and their carriages through! You b*stards! Why are you all so slow?” After getting scolded, this commander didn’t dare to get angry. He quickly ordered the soldiers who were defending this area to create a path and let Danielle and the two black knights through.

After this, Danielle finally calmed down again.

She now truly believed that the Tolemy Family wouldn’t try to take revenge on them.

As to the name, ‘King of Chambord,’ this female warrior had engraved it into her soul.

Elite soldiers of the [Rapid Wind Legion] stood on the streets in this poor neighborhood, but no one dared to jump out and stop them. Soon, Danielle and the two black knights arrived at the courtyard, and Danielle was surprised even though she mentally prepared herself.

There were many members of the Tolemy Family who were wearing white robes in the courtyard.

These noblemen who were usually arrogant were shivering in fear at the moment, and they were ashen-faced. Haughtiness and proudness could no longer be seen on their faces, and it seemed like they were more tamed than puppies. They stood in the courtyard with their heads lowered.

In the middle of the courtyard was a little altar created temporarily by wood, and there were all kinds of rare food and treasures on this altar as tributes.

Kulun who was usually reckless in Hot Spring Gate was tied up, and he looked dull and dispirited. If he weren’t propped up by two strong men who were half-naked on the top and holding knives, he would have collapsed onto the ground.

“Kill him! Kill this trash who only brings trouble to the family!”

“Kill him! He brings shame to Tolemy Family! He offended the King of Chambord, and his fate was already determined a long time ago!”

“Use this dumb*ss’ head as an apology to the King of Chambord His Majesty!”

“Kill him and burn him! I told you all that he should be disciplined! Kulun had been acting recklessly in Hot Spring Gate for a while now, and he is going to do something that brings doom to the family sooner or later! Humph! The leader of our family just wants to protect his son! Now, his youngest son caused such a big crisis for the family! I think old Tolemy should step off as well. He should resign from his position and take responsibility for this tragedy!”

“Yeah! The King of Chambord is too powerful! How could we mess with his first disciple?”

“Damn it! Dillies is an idiot! Just because he wants to protect Kulun, he tried to challenge the first disciple of the King of Chambord! Who does he think he is? Does he really think that he is invincible? He completely ignored the potential consequences that his actions might bring to the family!”

Loud and angry shouts sounded in the crowd. Under the leadership of a few people who were trying to pivot the opinions one way, all the members of the Tolemy Family who were dragged into this were mad, and they cursed at Kulun as if he wasn’t the second inheritor of the family but a vicious enemy.

Everyone who shouted was a core member of the family.

In order to save themselves, they all shifted their anger onto Kulun and the current family leader. There were fights everywhere! The Tolemy Family wasn’t in one piece, and there were fights for power within it. Therefore, some clever members tried to use this opportunity to flatter the King of Chambord and also harm the current family leader so that they could gain more benefits and power.

Inzagi stood behind the small altar with the kids. He didn’t say anything; he stood there and sneered as if he was watching a clown show.

A gloomy old man who was in his fifties slowly walked onto the altar, and he was holding a green sword. As he looked around, his domineering aura instantly suppressed the family members who tried to cause an uproar.

This gloomy old man was the current leader of the Tolemy Family.

He sneered and shook his wrist before piercing through Kulun’s heart mercilessly. As Kulun’s screams sounded, this old man kicked him to the ground and pulled out the sword that was stained by his son’s blood. Then, he cleaned the blood with the bottom of his shoes.

The entire process was quick and without hesitation.

There was no emotion that could be observed on old Tolemy’s face; it felt like it wasn’t his son who just died but a chicken. He was truly cold-blooded.

He glanced around and stated chillingly, “Kulun is a big trouble maker, and he is guilty of almost all crimes. I have killed him now and delivered the punishment. Humph! I know that there are people similar to Kulun in this family, and I will reorganize the family and execute anyone who committed hideous crimes. I will give the residents of Hot Spring Gate, the King of Chambord His Majesty, and Emperor Yassin His Majesty a good answer!”

It was absolutely quiet around the altar; everyone sensed the murderous spirit in old Tolemy’s words. Some people wanted to use this opportunity to force the family leader to resign, but who knew that he was merciless and would kill his son without hesitation? In addition, he was going to use this chance to ‘cleanse’ the family. The game of power sure wasn’t humane.

After seeing this, Inzagi called over Daniele and others. After packing up everything in the ragged stone houses, they loaded the carriages and left the poor neighborhood. None of them wanted to talk to the corrupted nobles anymore.

Old Tolemy’s expression changed a little and looked at Kulun’s corpse beside him. He kicked this corpse off the altar and ordered a soldier beside him coldly, “Go bury this trouble maker somewhere! He is useless, and it is better now that he is dead!”

......

After leaving Hot Spring Gate, everyone felt relaxed.

Danielle and the kids felt an unprecedented thrill, and they were humming songs on the way like birds that finally broke out of their cages.

Inzagi and the other four black knights were happy as well.

They only came here for the revenge, but they met their friend who they thought was dead. It was a pleasant surprise.

Inzagi exhaled deeply, and his expression suddenly changed.

The threshold that had been blocking his path of cultivation showed signs of moving, and he was joyous.

“It is just like master said!” he thought.
