Chapter 458: Battle for the Throne (1/2)

The Second Prince felt this presence and opened his eyes. He also knew who exactly has come for him. He looked at the man in front of him and said, ”Eldest Brother, I didn't expect to see you here.”

His feigning of ignorance wasn't bought by the first prince. He sneered and answered, ”Cut your fakery. I know you are aware of my arrival, so why are you acting up like you are surprised?”

The second prince's eyes flashed with a glint and looked at his eldest brother. Usually, this man was dumb and all muscles. However, it looked like he was using his head this time. He still smiled and welcomed his brother with words, ”So what now?”

The second prince was waiting for the first prince's words. It would be the deciding factor whether they would fight to the death or not.

”Shawn, listen to me.” The first prince called the second prince his last name which was unusual and said, ”Give up the throne. You know that I am basically the rightful owner of that. If you give up the throne now, we will not have to do this. You know how much our Father Emperor loves you, so this is too much of a risk.”

The first prince paused for a moment and continued, ”If you want power, I can give you that when I succeeded the throne. I can give you half or 3/4 of the total kingdoms under your law and jurisdiction. I can even give you women, a lots of women for you to have a harem. Anything you want, I'll fulfill it.”

It was the first prince's real thoughts. As long as he became the emperor, he wouldn't make it difficult for his second brother though he was jealous of him. After all, all the hatreds and jealousy would be gone once he grabbed the throne on his own.

The second prince thought of this offer for a short while and shook his head, ”Eldest Brother, I'm afraid I can't live up to your expectations, then. I want the throne. Our Father Emperor gives us fair share of chance to fight for it. So since I have the chance, I will use it.”

”So you're really going against me?” The first prince's voice turned cold and asked. He expected this response, but hearing it left a bitter taste in his mouth.

”Indeed, Eldest Brother.” The second prince said with full of seriousness, ”I am going against you.”

”Since you've chosen this path, don't blame me for being ruthless.” The first prince equipped his thin blade and swung it, ”Since this is the case, then let's settle this with a death match.”

”If that's what you wish, Eldest Brother.” The second prince was still calm and collected even though the first prince was leaking with a very thick killing intent.

”This cocky attitude of yours, like the world is on your palm, I hate it the most!” The first prince dashed towards the second prince with a terrifying speed.

”Clang! Clang!” The second prince released his thin blade too and clashed with the first prince.
