    Kin’s gaze naturally turned to Abel. He was now looking up at the sky. However, there was no resentment towards him. In fact, the fear in Kin’s heart was something else.

    What if the emperor had not suddenly changed his plan, but had intended this all along?

    1f685ea2cd5d8b82

    For six years, he believed he was going to confront the King’s Heart in the proper way, but what if that was not the case? What if the outcome the emperor had in mind from the start was entirely different? In fact, what if the wars over the years were merely to alleviate the emperor’s boredom, and just like stretching after a long nap, he was now beginning to unleash his hidden malice?

    There was no way to stop such thoughts.

    To Karas, the King’s Heart was prey that had been cornered over twelve years of effort. Having witnessed his ancestors and father being toyed with by the King’s Heart, he wouldn’t kill them easily. No, he must not kill them easily. Even now, they were an opponent who’s still threatening him with a black potion. The greatest thrill of eliminating such an enemy came after enduring and persevering.

    Like a child who, after tearing off the wings of a captured insect one by one, watched it struggle for a long time before finally crushing it with his last fingernail. Therefore, he would not reveal his power all at once as he entered the palace alone.

    What matters is the outcome. It would be nice if it wasn’t a simple method of killing everyone in the end. Although the emperor appeared more fearsome than the King’s Heart he would face in the future, Kin struggled to suppress this feeling. Abel, who had been looking up at the sky, turned his gaze as if he had noticed Kin’s stare.

    Having listened to everything and having pondered over it, Abel must have had a lot on his mind, however, his green eyes were calm enough to put those who looked at him at ease. As if to comfort him saying, “It’s okay because I’m here.” Abel’s voice echoed in his ear.

    Although he had not slept properly for over two days, Ashler could not close his eyes. He sat motionless in the darkness of his quarters until it was bathed in the light of dawn. If it hadn’t been for the unexpected visitor who arrived early in the morning, he wouldn’t have realized that time had passed.

    Roster, who had prepared to leave, entered the tent without turning on the light. When Ashler lifted his head at his voice, Roster teased him playfully.

    Normally, Ashler’s snorting sound would be heard at this point, but a heavy silence took its place instead. Roster wiped the smile off his face and approached him.

    Perhaps his stern tone had some effect, as Ashler finally opened his mouth. Having not spoken for a long time, his hoarse voice brought forth the question that had tormented his mind.

It’s a pity that we revealed that power to the King’s Heart’s first, but if it’s His Majesty, who has wisely dealt with them so far, he will handle it well. He wouldn’t have expanded the territory and increased his power without reason.”

    After a while, Roster left the quarters. Watching him leave on Karas’ command, Ashler also slowly got up from his seat. As if he had made up his mind, he stepped out to prepare for the disbanding of the army. He had to leave for the palace with the emperor in the morning, so there was much to do beforehand.

    Ashler called his subordinates in a loud voice and began giving orders, returning to his usual strict superior demeanor as if nothing had happened. Returning to the palace after six years. His heart trembled with tension rather than anticipation.

    The servant who had stayed up all night to bring Norhox’s letter handed it directly to Truyde and only then retreated, feeling relieved. Without turning the lights, Truyde approached the window, which was still dark, and unfolded the letter. The content was very simple.

    [The emperor is not poisoned at all.]

    Although the content was just a short line, it implied a lot. Truyde stared at it for a long time before pulling the string to call a servant. The fact that the Emperor was not poisoned implied that he had shown evidence of it. If Norhox had sent the letter in such a hurry, it must have been the power of the dragon. Truyde turned his gaze and looked out the dim window where the sun was about to rise.

    49018c7d6b12db26

    The emperor would arrive at the palace in the evening. If he had shown them such a surprising performance, shouldn’t they give him a suitable gift in return? And Truyde knew what the appropriate gift was. Even if he was arrogant, it was a gift that would make him retreat the moment he saw it.

    9e1c1c48efd5255a

    Watching him ride away again, Erei licked his dry lips with his tongue. There must have been some unexpected variable. When Norhox sent him off, his expression was relaxed as if there were other options even if he failed, but now he said he would behead him himself if he failed. Erei ordered the stopped carriage to move again and gnawed at his fingernails. He had a bad feeling. The Marquis’ object must be found. No matter what.

    Ashler closely observed Karas’ arm that he was looking at but saw nothing unusual. It was just the same scar he had since childhood. The child who had always stained his body with his own and others’ blood was no longer there but seeing the scar dampened Ashler’s mood.

    The Commander of the Royal Guards did not like this plan No, he didn’t like Kin’s eagerness, who was trying to execute the plan immediately. Clearly, there were tasks ordered by the emperor, but for some reason, Kin insisted this matter was more urgent.

    The Commander of the Royal Guards had also predicted a similar outcome to Kin when he received that order from the emperor.

    Kin’s blind faith made the Commander of the Royal Guards’ heart feel suffocated. Due to his upright nature, Kin never easily changes once he has given his heart. Even on the battlefield, if a subordinate made a mistake, he would punish them harshly, to the point of seeming cruel, but he would never abandon them. He would punish them, correct their mistakes, and embrace them to the end. Although he couldn’t voice these thoughts that tickled his tongue, Kin added as if persuading him.
