Chapter 1087: Emperor Kill...? (1/2)

'He...help me….master.'

Stephen was feeling suffocated as he called his master while thinking in his head, 'It will be a humiliation for me to die by suffocation.'

For him, prestige was everything and even if had to die, it should be in a proper battle while fighting against his opponent; however, the current way of dying would completely damage his reputation.

'I already said not to mess with him. If you die, this province will be a better place.'

Soon, King Stephen heard his master's voice in his head making him even more frustrated.

'Pl...please master. Th..this old lizard is going to….kill me.'

Nevertheless, he didn't stop begging his master for his help.

'If you promise to control your greediness and anger, then I will help you. Because of those two qualities, you will be messing up my plan of conquering this entire world.'

His master scoffed as he asked King Stephen to promise him something.

'I...I promise.'

King Stephen didn't think much because each second he wasted the longer his suffering would be. So, he promised.

'If you break the promise, I will find someone else and I will make him the Emperor of the province.'

As soon as he finished his words, a golden coloured mist appeared out of King Stephen's body and materialised into an old man wearing golden robes.

”What? You are the Emperor Kill...”

”You speak a lot. Now, you can rest.”

Before the old man from the 'House of dragons' could finish his words, the golden robed old man scoffed at him before summoning a golden spear and pierced into his throat.

Supppringly, the golden spear's tip opened up like a mouth and swallowed the body before returning to its normal form.

'Cough...cough.'

As for King Stephen, he started coughing while gasping for breath.

”What was he saying? Emperor Kill?”

After adjusting his breath, King Stephen asked about the last words spoken by the old man from the 'House of dragons'.

”It's nothing.”

As soon as he finished his words, the golden-robed old man disappeared from his place and entered King Stephen's head before saying, 'You will forget what he said, right?'

Those words sounded cold and King Stephen knew if he said 'No', he would be killed right now.

So, he nodded his head and said 'Yes'.

'Good. I have expended so much energy. I will be resting for the next few months. I hope you don't mess up the things.'

Soon, he started giving orders to King Stephen regarding certain things.

'What should I do if the 'House of dragons' contacts me about them?'

King Stephen didn't bother with the other things much as he asked what he had to do if someone from the 'House of dragons' contacted him.

'Regarding what?'

Stephen master acted dumb as he asked Stephen.

'About this old man?'

'Which old man?'

'....'

Hearing his master's reply, King Stephen understood what he had to do and it was 'He had to do nothing'.

'If someone asks me about it, I will tell them that they didn't contact me after giving them a perfect place to do their mission.'

That was the thought in King Stephen's head to act like he didn't know anything and the 'House of dragons' would definitely think that something must have gone wrong during the mission.

'I wonder what made this old man become so weak.'

Earlier, King Stephen was caught off guard and that's the only reason he had to beg his master to help him.

'My only pity is that the master's weapon completely swallowed the old man's body; otherwise, all his possession's would have become mine.'
