Chapter 141: 077 Hashashi+ns and King Rahamma -1 (Part One)
I furrowedthe Crown I until now, Ruppel regained consciousness and cli down on his butt on the ground
He dazedly stared at White Olfolse before crying out, “F-father?!”
“Hey, it’s been a while, son I see that you’re now a fully-grown youngus back with such a laid-back attitude His response didn’tfor eleven years, but so home from a business trip that lasted only about aa pretty poor ih it’s quite a bit of a stretch to call hiical father nonetheless
While he was ot murdered, then his son the First Imperial Prince, Luan, was inflicted with a deadly curse The whole iot flipped on its head from the Vampires later, too
Despite all these events, he didn’t even bother to show up in the palace once I just couldn’t see this guy as a good father at all
“Just where have you been for the past decade or so?”
My question elicited a bitter grin on White’s face “I was looking for someone”
“Someone, is it?”
He nodded his head But before he could folloith an explanation, the noise of a loud explosion suddenly reverberated throughout the city
Tina, Hans, Ruppel, White, and I all turned our heads at the same time
In the distant sky over there… Cri up
We hurriedly exited froate and took a better look at the cityscape outside
Large boulders soaked in oil were crashi+ng down on the city and rolling around to crush the buildings flat Not too long afterwards, the echoes fro out from the distance
…War?
Only one ar an Aslan city like this
I muttered, “Is it the Theocratic Empire?”
“No, I don’t think it’s them” White walked up to my side and spoke up “The dru to our side”
“Which ate, and her ears began twitching “This noise – it’s aby the Aslan arrew deathly pale
“…An ar Raha city
I too stared at the cityscape and spotted Aslan’s soldiers rushi+ng inside the city’s open gates in the far-off distance
I asked out loud, “Why is Aslan attacking its own city? Could it be that they ran out of supplies and decided to raid one of their own territories or sohout history – foolish kings raiding and pillaging their own territories in order to boost the morale of their troops as well as to secure extra supplies
Of course, the outcoo the other way froinations
Tina shook her head at ure it out “I also do not know, my lord How can such a horrible event even be…!”
“…Ah, about that I can think of this one little possibility,” Whitehis ar thatis because of me”
We all stared at hi e “Well, what can I say? I’m still the Holy Emperor’s son, after all Besides, I also left the i to the throne, too So, uh, if I return to the palace now, then I’d effectively go back to being the ‘Holy Eht be enough to end this war”
“…”
Even if all of that was true, how can anyone even think about blowing up a whole city just to kill one person?!
It see Rahamht tie casual banter, everyone!” Hans called out to us while pulling a carriage to our location “I’ve prepared proof of identities As I’et outside the city and grease enough pal our situation, then we can…”
“I don’t think that’s a good lanced at hi one of his own cities, which can only hter every person found in the city Even with the identity of a er right away”
I facepal after another, isn’t it…”
“But that doesn’t h There are tays of escaping froers “One is to hide somewhere We hide and wait until they tire the presents itself Too bad, this option is next to impossible to pull off As for the other option…”
He nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders
“Someone becomes bait and attracts the ar as possible”
“…Anyone wishi+ng to volunteer as bait?”
I threw that question out, but Tina, Hans, and Ruppel all cla this trio would be capable of opposing Aslan’s army by theon by yourself? Wouldn’t you be able to deal with Aslan’s army, since that’s the case?” Hans sneakily askedthat would be quite stupid of ht off the Aslan ar Ah
The longer the fight, the worse the burden of using the relics would be on my body, and eventually, I’d end up incapacitated in the middle of the battle
