C156 Redemption to Shackles Truth (2/2)
Then he walked out without looking back.
Leopard Boy opened his eyes slightly. In the midst of his blurry vision, he saw Arthur's figure disappearing in the distance.
At the same time, at the base of the Westernmost Knight Organization.
”Is this steak right?” the Grand Duke Yoens asked.
Eavan sized his father up while he ate, puzzled. However, he didn't say a word the whole time.
”Why are you so reserved?” Could it be that he was afraid that I would drink bewitching pills during dinner? Yoens laughed coldly, ”Don't worry, I am a dignified Heavenly Stage Knight, taking advantage of the time when I am eating with my son, to get information on my opponent. I will definitely not do something as lacking in moral integrity.” ”
Eavan looked at his father, still doubtful. He frowned: ”Besides this, I really can't think of a reason why Master Heavenly Stage Knight would like to eat with me, a little kid. How long has it been since His Grace has spoken to a lowly person like me? Five years? ”No, that's not right. It could be that ever since I joined the Order of Knights under His Grace the Grand Duke, I've been doing this ever since.”
”Oyun is right, you really are in a rebellious phase. Yoens interrupted, ”Previously, I had my reasons for not being able to answer your question.” Especially when someone claims to be my son, and rumors are flying all over the Order, I can't give you any special care. — — No, that's why you need to be more severe, or you won't be easy to convince. ”
”Is it reasonable for you to drag me out to eat with you every day like this?” What would the Knights be discussing behind his back? Eavan asked.
At this moment, Heavenly Stage Knight Yoens seemed to have been stabbed by something as he laughed out loud:
”First of all, you are no longer a member of Westernmost Knight Organization. I cannot give you any more 'special treatment'.
Secondly, can you accept this question? You should ask those idiots in the Knight Regiment who were drooling at your Red Fire Dragon. The reports on the duel between the Arthur Knight Regiment in Rome have been sent over for a long time already. If there were any rumors flying everywhere, it should be about you taking's name and running to a duel. Oyun was even mocked for a long time. That brat's self-esteem is so great that he actually got angry at you the moment he saw you. You should secretly rejoice. ”
”Uh, well...” Eavan shivered in pain. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he whispered, ”I was forced to.” Furthermore, I have already done my best to avoid embarrassing Oyun, what do you still want from me? Why did Arthur write such a thing in his report? Damn it... ”
He had to tell the truth about Rome. He had a lot of things he couldn't put into words. There was still a lot of questioning awaiting him at this time--if there was no war between the five kings. Hm? That's not right. I think Leo Dickens chased that brat Arthur out of the cavalry? That guy really did know how to stir up trouble. Originally, he needed to investigate more thoroughly, but now he had managed to get away with it. That fellow … An astute and astute person? ”
It's just that I think interrogating him is too troublesome, so wouldn't it be more fun to mess things up? Eavan scolded in his heart.
He wondered as he picked up the juice to drink. At this moment, an unnatural ripple appeared on the surface of the juice.
What was it? It knocked over the cup in Eavan's hands with an extremely high speed. The cup fell to the floor, releasing a cloud of white smoke that corroded the floor.
”This is ….” Poison?! Eavan shouted in shock.
”Get down!” ”Yoens rushed towards Eavan, at the same time thrusting out his sword.
At that moment, Eavan still had a little suspicion that his father wanted to kill him. But in the end, he chose to believe that he was lying on the ground.
Yoens's sword stabbed deeply into Eavan … [Enter the Assassin behind us.] The Assassin immediately died, spouting out fresh blood that drenched Eavan's body.
”How is this possible!” No one can get so close to me as far as I can see... Eavan was shocked.
”These are trained assassins. Their penetration magic can cut off all detection.” Not to mention that you have the eyes of an elf, even the most advanced detection spells are unable to detect their approach. The Duke of Yoens said.
”How could this be …?” Then what about high-level spells … ”
”Yes, it will cost a lot to use.” ”These people who tried to assassinate me would do so with the intention to risk their lives. They would rather be petrified than let me die.” ”
”Did you poison my cup?” But, how did you detect their existence? ”
”It wasn't me. It was my partner.” ”Heavenly Stage Knight Yoens laughed coldly,” How is it? Should I tell you more? You could have gotten the information and told it to Arthur, huh? I won't say that you are despicable, or are just trying to take advantage of the enemy. After all, I already know that Arthur's mount is a dragon, so it would be fair for him to recognize my partner. ”
”Is this the time?” ”Eavan took out his weapon, while at the same time, dozens of assassins entered through the window.” You should keep all the information for yourself, I will personally confirm it. ”
”Impossible.” ”Yoens laughed out loud,” Because there was no battle at all. Because — ”He gestured contemptuously at the group of assassins.” They're dead. ”
One by one, the assassins began to fall, their heads falling or being split in half, their bodies falling slowly from their waists up.
What Yoens said was right: they were already dead.
