96 To Another World! (1/2)

”Your Majesty..” The two Celestial Generals were a loss for words. They wanted to reason out but when their eyes met with Jin Rou's cold stare, all the words they wanted to say choked back from their mouths. Their faces were extremely pale white like everyone else.

”What?” Jin Rou asked, ”You have something to say?”

The two generals did not dare to meet his eyes and just lowered their heads.

”I am quite displeased by the actions of you two. To think that you are my generals, have you not ashamed me yet?” Jin Rou continued, ”You two dare to fight in front of me? Hah. How funny.”

The ground and the void shook violently. The floor cracked several times originating where Jin Rou stood. The green plants withered and the oxygen got thinner.

”Your Majesty, we don't dare! We don't dare!” The two generals said in unison as they immediately denied this. They regretted as they acted so impulsively, doing foolish actions.

This was a grave sin. And if Jin Rou wanted them dead, they could only resign their selves and accept this! After all, it was their fault.

However, Yuna Sierra was the one who was affected the most. Because of her idiotic action, she ended up displeasing, no, angering, the Celestial King. If not for the fact that she took it the hard way by audaciously casting a skill directly to Jin Rou, would Grenas be infuriated that he wanted her dead?

”Yuna Sierra.” She was in a daze when Jin Rou called out to her. But her reflexes responded immediately upon the call steeling herself, ”Yes, Your Majesty.”

”You are supposed to be my general, right?” Jin Rou said in a low yet cold tone, ”But a pity, you did that. You are now relieved of your duty. Go back and tell my grandparents about what I said earlier. It is final and will not be changed.”

”Your Majesty, you are.. re-relieving of my duty?” Yuna Sierra stuttered a bit as her face revealed a shocked expression. She was in an utmost disbelief at this moment.

”Yes, I am relieving of your duty. You are now free of whoever you wanted to serve. If you want, I can make a recommendation to the Prime Clans for you. With that, you can still be a general of an army.” Jin Rou said.

”No no, Your Majesty! Please don't relieve me... I can accept any punishments how heavy and grave it is. I don't care! But please let me still serve you.” This time, Yuna Sierra kowtowed and banged her head several times on the floor as she begged. This was something that she would not be able to take! All she knew was that she lives for Jin Rou. And her life revolves around Jin Rou.

Seeing this, this stung a bit of Jin Rou's heart. In actuality, he did not want to this. However, when Yuna Sierra cast a skill against him, that touched his bottom line. If one would think of this deeply, this was already treachery! She betrayed Jin Rou's trust and it was only right to fire her. This was not unfair at all. In fact, from what she did, it already weighed a death punishment. Just being fired was already a light punishment anyone could ask for. But this was not obviously the case for Yuna Sierra.

However, Jin Rou, was after all, still a child. How could he kill his subordinate because of that? He wouldn't go that far. Just relieving her of his position forever was already the best he could do.

”Listen, Yuna Sierra.” Jin Rou called out for her attention as she was still kowtowing, ”Me, releasing you, is already merciful enough for my part. Don't ask for more than I could not give. And kowtowing there would not change anything so just forget it.”

Grenas looked over to Yuna Sierra as he felt satisfied from how His Majesty do things. Although Yuna Sierra should be sentenced to death but instead was given a lighter punishment, it was still in the range where Jin Rou could give out without any bias. Besides, he knew very well how Jin Rou think. And so, he already expected this.

Yuna Sierra bit her lower lip until it bled, tears also streamed down her beautiful face in indignation. She did not budge even one bit, as she was petrified and ashamed to lift her head to face Jin Rou. She clenched her jade-like fist until cracking sounds could be heard. She was very heartbroken that she did not know what to do anymore.

But who could she blame? It was her fault, to begin with. She was just paying what she did. However, this price had crumbled her entire world.

A devastating impact on her morale.

And she knew that recuperating from this was next to impossible. For Jin Rou was the reason why she kept on living. Now that he was gone, what's the reason to live for?

”Your Majesty.. p-p-please..” Yuna Sierra wanted to beg for the last time, but her voice seemed left her.

Jin Rou sighed. Obviously, he did not know what to do also. His rage had already died down.

He thought for a long while before saying as he shifted his glance to Old Mo who was not much away from him, ”Old Mo. Come here.”

This startled Old Mo a bit. However, he maintained his stance. He walked over beside Jin Rou in a nervous manner, ”Young Master, what is it?”

Young Master? This made Grenas frowned. He wanted to lift his head to see who said that, however, he did not dare to. After all, they already enraged Jin Rou.

”Old Mo, what do you think should I do regarding Yuna Sierra?” Jin Rou asked for some advice. As Old Mo was much older than him, maybe he could help him out.

Old Mo glanced over to Yuna Sierra and smiled wryly. Although some things were not clear, he already understood the most of it. These people in front of him were existences that could destroy the world with a single flip of their hands! What was more, seeing the actual appearance of his Young Master, he could not help but be in awe in an utmost degree! What a beautiful man! All the heartthrobs of this world were like an ant in front of this universe-defying handsomeness! If not for Old Mo being a straight man, he already fainted from blushing extremely!

Of course, it was not only Old Mo who was affected by this. All the girls present especially Yalan Na entered a daze as their gazes were fixated and glued to Jin Rou! All of them carried blushed expressions and most of them already wet themselves! If not for the two generals in front, a stampede might already have caused!

Old Mo thew these thoughts in the back of his mind and said, ”Young Master, are you sure you want to hear my opinion?”

”Of course.” Jin Rou said.

”Then alright.” Old Mo fixed himself and cleared his throat, ”I do not know why this fairy-like miss was so adamant of taking back Young Master that it even made her offend you. But I know that she only did that for you, Young Master.”

This made Yuna Sierra trembled slightly.

”For me?” Jin Rou was confused, ”Why did you say so?”

”Young Master, judging by what I had seen and heard a while ago, this fairy-like miss is so respectful to you and if not for the fact that she was in a dire and difficult situation, she would not dare to offend you. And I feel like she holds you so dear, Young Master. So for me, in my opinion, you should not forsake her because I can feel her loyalty for you. I do not know why I can feel it. Probably it is because of the thing we shared the same for you.” Old Mo said.

”What is that thing?” Jin Rou was amused.

”Devotion.” Old Mo said as he smiled, ”It is devotion, Young Master.”

This made the two generals widen their eyes as their bodies trembled for some unknown reason.

Jin Rou seemed to ponder things so Old Mo did not disturb him. A while after, Jin Rou sighed as he smiled, ”I guess you have a point.”

He then looked at Yuna Sierra, ”Yuna Sierra, I will not relieve you to your duty anymore. However, you are no longer my general but just a personal maid. How about it?” This was the best he could do. This way, he would not be biased against Grenas.

”Yes, Your Majesty. I accept!” She did not mind being only a maid. As long as she could serve Jin Rou, it was all that mattered. However, she did not expect that a say from this Old Mo could change his mind.
