Chapter 441: Chapter 417 Assassination of Queen Peggy

“I just saw Arte leaving your place, Hecate, and I wanted to talk to you about your brother Arte, as well as your sister Delia,”

“The reason I want to discuss this is because they both listen to you the most.”

Darren looked calmly at Hecate, his gaze quickly moving past her to the bedding behind her.

Those who possess the Power of Consecution and reach the 5th Rank may not obtain special abilities such as “Flight,” “Domain,” and the ability to “transform life force through spiritual power” like Bloodline Knights at the Monarch Level do,

but they universally gain the ability “to touch the soul,” “powerful Perception Ability,” and “Burning Soul for increased power.”

Darren could clearly sense the presence of the person in the bedding, and even deduced that it was an Extraordinary Exponent who had reached the Transmutation Level, but ultimately he squinted and didn’t pay too much attention.

Hecate sighed and shook her head, “Delia hasn’t been having any issues lately.”

“Arte is feeling very confused; he’s not at all familiar with Queen Peggy, yet he is expected to shoulder the responsibility for the Fischer family and become the spouse of Queen Siyate.”

Darren chuckled, and given his personality, it was quite out of character. He shook his head, “What does Arte have to be dissatisfied about? Queen Peggy is perfectly matched for him in looks, character, and status.”

“And his children will become the new monarchs of Siyate, which is a fine arrangement for the mediocre Arte. You should be very clear that, unlike you, with the best talents, your brother Arte has the worst talents in the Fischer family. His character is too mediocre, so he finds it hard to make progress on any path.”

Darren’s voice grew louder; it was evident that he agreed with the current arrangements for Arte.

“If he marries Queen Peggy, he can become a monarch in the eyes of the people, which could speed up his progress on the Path of Authority. Perhaps he can reach the 5th Rank in his lifetime and avoid the early demise common to mortals.”

Hearing this, Hecate nodded lightly and smiled, “Your arrangement with mother is indeed considerate.”

Darren nodded and said, “I know you can understand Christine’s feelings, which mother doesn’t want her child to live a bit longer?”

Charlotte, hidden under the bedding, couldn’t understand at all; her head was clouded with confusion because there were too many unfamiliar terms! What on earth were they talking about?

Darren continued.

“And about your sister, Delia, she is already sixteen years old, and the path she follows emphasizes learning and spreading knowledge, which suits her somewhat weak character… Delia’s Destiny’s Trajectory is ‘Inheritor,’ and you must help me ask her if she has any favored man from the major families when you have the chance.”

“Okay, I got it.”

Delia’s Destiny’s Trajectory ‘Inheritor’ is a rather special one.

She can pass on her own experiences, knowledge, and skills in the form of memories to her offspring, who, once they become Extraordinary Exponents, will gradually unlock them completely.

Plus, since Delia’s God Pantheon stairway is the Path of Knowledge, she can pass down a vast amount of knowledge.

Therefore, both Darren and Christine hoped that Delia would have offspring and not remain as steadfastly single as Helen had.

Of course, such matters would ultimately depend on her own wishes.

One of the reasons for Arte’s anger was that other members of the Fischer family were allowed to remain single if they insisted, but he was ordered to marry Queen Peggy, feeling he was being subjected to a double standard.

However, his mother Christine felt that Arte’s talents were too mediocre, even inferior, and without becoming a “monarch,” he would hardly have a chance to reach the 5th Rank on the Path of Authority.

So, for her son to live a longer life, the “cold” and calculating Christine resolved that she must force him this once.

Just then, a subordinate of the Black Tide approached Darren and whispered to him.

“Hostile Extraordinary Exponents have appeared around Nasir City in several places, and we are now dispatching people to deal with them.”

“Understood,”

Darren nodded slightly, then turned and walked away with a stern expression.

After Darren had left, Charlotte in the bedding also refrained from any rash movements, feeling a mix of anger and fear deep in her heart that she couldn’t shake off, but the last bit of her reason told her not to act impulsively just yet.

On her own, going head to head with Darren Fischer, a Monarch Level powerful expert, was undoubtedly delusional, so she had no choice but to endure.

Good.

He has finally left, and now’s the time to kidnap Hecate Fischer.

Charlotte felt very uneasy and confused about the conversation she had overheard, but there was no time to ponder it further, as what she needed to do next was most important!

And that was to kidnap Hecate Fischer and escape the manor!
