Chapter 253: To the front lines (2/2)

Their towers are only things that cannot be attacked, they are like foreign embassies in another country. They cannot be touched no matter how great the war is.

At the same instant, inside the imperial palace.

There are many people inside the imperial court. They are the strongest of the Orion empire.

All of them are discussing how to deal with this when the voice of the Arian Emperor was heard.

Many of them are having a hard enough time already and this announcement only made it worse.

Many of them looked at the emperor viciously. If they had enough power, they would have smacked him senseless right there and then.

This guy brought this all upon them.

This guy and his stupid son did this and right now that stupid son is not even in the Orion, he is now in the thunder god temple receiving training safe and sound.

Now, because of the temper of this useless father and son pair, their lives are hanging on a thread. They cannot just surrender because they might get killed by this stupid emperor and they don't have any other choice but to fight.

Now, there is a well in the front and a pit in the back, they cannot just walk away.

Vickers who is beside the emperor shook his head and sighed.

He didn't expect that his suggestion was too later, Sam didn't even give the emperor a chance to consider, he just went away and did what he wanted to do. He clearly didn't take the habit of Sam purchasing the information into account and delayed his visit and now because of that information, everything was over just like that.

There is no way that Orion could recover, even if by a miracle Orion could win, what's next, all the territory was occupied and they can at most rule this imperial capital.

He made his move and appeared at the entrance of the city.

He looked at the Emperor of Arian and said.

”How are you Arc?” He asked as if he was meeting his old friend and it turned out to be true.

”Nice to meet you again, Old friend.” Arc, the Emperor said in reply.

”Do we have to do it this way?” Vickers asked but his gaze is not on Arc anymore, it is on Sam.

His question was not answered. Vickers looked at Sam and continued.

”Sam, why do you have to do this? You could have had your revenge a few years later, with your talent, you would be able to take revenge in just a decade. Do you have to go this far? Do you have to take it to this extent, even causing a whole empire to collapse?”

Sam looked at Vickers with no expression but inwardly he was surprised, he didn't know that Vickers is someone this powerful, he didn't expect this creepy middle-aged man was an existence on par with an emperor. But the surprise didn't last long.

”Revenge, you say. You are actually right. I can kill him in a decade, in fact, I can slaughter him like a lamb right in the center of the Imperial capital while the whole city is watching.

But until that time, what should I do? Do you guarantee that I can have a peaceful night after escaping? Can you guarantee that an inflated and unfounded arrogance filled person like him would be able to let go of the fact that I would be able to leave unscathed?”

Vickers was stumped. He only thought of things from his side and the empire's side. He didn't think much of Sam though. What kind of person is Sam? He saw it first hand, he is an extremely prideful person who is capable of the glory and majesty he displays. He might be arrogant but he had every right to be. Would a person of that caliber able to take a loss?

Of course not.

But before he could answer, Sam continued.

”Above all else. I can still do the same right now, so why should I let the vermin that came after me, live an extra second if I can kill him now?”

This time Vickers replied.

”You seem to be too confident of yourselves. Are you sure you can do this? All I could see is you using tricks to make both empires fight. If you had the ability why do you have to do all this?”

”I want to kill the emperor before killing him.”

Sam replied to him in one sentence and the spectators are confused only a few people understood what he meant.

Sam not only wants to kill the emperor himself he wants to kill whatever that makes him an emperor. He was so arrogant enough to make an attempt at Sam's life.

So, Sam wanted to kill that arrogance before anything else.
