Chapter 74 (2/2)

Emperor of Steel Kangchan 22250K 2022-07-24

Both sides of Monarch’s territories were in a fierce battle.

The bodyguards of the Count could barely hold their enemies off, but it seemed like the Count could have enough space to move past the Gigants of Rakan.

“Dammit, that, that Cain! What the hell did that guy even do?!”

They haven’t been in touch with Cain.

At first, they had regarded it as a simple communication problem.

They had never even anticipated that they would lose to Rakan.

And for such a disturbing situation to happen right in front of his home!

“We don’t know the exact details, but from the current situation, Cain is likely to have been defeated by the Rakan army. So, you need to evacuate from here, as quickly as possible!”

At the repetitive words from Goth, the Count was now aware of his situation and put on some clothes.

However, the Count went into the library instead of going outside the building!

“Count, where are you going?”

“Safe, safe!”

The Count just couldn’t give up his vault, which had all of his precious belongings, even when trying to run away.

Gkkk!

Hurriedly pushing the desk to the side, he lifted the wooden door.

The vault had an iron door.

“Count, there is no time for this. The shouts are getting closer. It will be easy for them to get here. You need to evacuate!”

“Shut up! If you want to avoid meeting them, then just run away!’

Monarch yelled at Goth with red eyes and opened the door of his secret vault.

“Uh, I don’t care!”

Goth fled away first as he could not wait any longer.

Not knowing that he was gone, the Count began to take out the jewelry, gold bars, and bills out of his vault.

“Kuuk, how long will it take to recover all this…”

The Count had put the last bill into his pocket.

That was when he saw a Gigant burst out from the window of the room.

Crash!

“Ahhk!”

Inevitably, Monarch was crushed by the ruckus made by the Gigant.

His greed had given him one last chance to see his money.

“Ahh, my feet might slip!”

Philip, who was riding Sting II near the residence, fell back when he saw that people were running out.

The soldiers might not know, but they were all unarmed people.

Also, there were pretty maids, and he could never hurt them.

“Yeah, the mansion has been ruined. I don’t want to use it for useless things…”

Lingering on his thoughts, Philip went to help his allies with his Sting II.

He had no idea that the Count Monarch was already dead because of what he did.
