Chapter 329 - Luke’s Conspiracy 4 (2/2)
And the fact that the Emperor was secretly training warlocks, summoning demons and was going to offer sacrifices!
“This is the only way out! Who else can help me? The Holy Pope who can do miracles? Voltas had said that the rumors had gone to the Holy Empire about our kids. They think that the kids are sick because of the wrongdoings!”
Even the queens who were opposed to the plan Rudolf had, had no say in anything.
However, after a short while, they asked for them to be used as sacrifices. The fact that they had to look at their children being so sick, was very painful.
Rudolf who was shocked by their request felt overwhelmed, but he couldn’t defeat their stubbornness to help their kids.
And such things led to the current situation.
“Can’t you at least rethink about this?”
At the question from the Emperor, both queens shook their heads.
They were doing it for their kids, and the two queens weren’t as relentless as Rudolf.
No, many people in the Imperial palace had warm and kind hearts.
Feeling guilty for the court ladies who would be used as the sacrifices for the well being of their own kids, the queens decided to take matters into their own hands.
“Well, if that is your will, there is nothing I can do.”
With a heavy sigh, Rudolf pulled on his sword.
With his eyes closed, he approached the queens who were waiting for their final moments and wielded his sword.
Puak! Puak!
Along with an eerie vibration, the Emperor’s sword pierced the 3rd and 4th queen.
Beginning with the queens, the Meishin and the other warlocks began to slaughter the scared women.
“Please, spa… spare me… ah!”
“God look over us! Please show mercy on us…”
“You have all gone mad, Your Majesty! You will burn in hell!”
There were those who begged, those who seek salvation from the god, and those who cursed the Emperor.
Their bodies, each had the same end, all of them were placed in the summoning circle with flowing blood.
Emperor Rudolf, silently watching the devastation in front of him, asked Meishin.
“With this sacrifice, what level of demon would come?”
“The higher level… no, maybe the Devil King might come too.”
Everything was prepared so well.
Meishin, who said that to Rudolf, memorized the spell.
The floor began to tremble violently and the summoning magic circle began to glow with blood.
Soon after, the bodies which were offered as sacrifices disappeared without a trace, and the summoning magic circle too had disappeared.
Instead, a black space had opened up.
‘The Devil king is good even a demon is good. Anyone who can save my kids should be the ones to come!’
Rudolf stepped back looking at the dark subspace to watch the entire summoning process.
