Kingdom’s Bloodline

Chapter 6: The Iron Fist King (Part 2)

Two members of the royal guard in silver eternal armor walked to Val's side without saying a word.

Duke Cullen shook his head helplessly: "Friends are ruthless, brothers turn against each other, is there anything more tragic than this?"

No one answered him.

After a while, Val Arend smiled lightly and raised his head:

"At least I got one thing done."

He looked at Baron Russell with a strange expression.

"I brought the war, didn't I?"

"Even if Lunba and I planned everything——the ones who killed the prince were not restless nobles like Xingchen?"

All of a sudden, Jann, Gurst and some of the earls all had weird faces, only Duke Cullen still shook his head and sighed, as if he was still immersed in the brotherly rivalry just now.

Val said sadly: "Haha... Kai, the stars have not recovered from the damage, and they are no match for Exeter at all—what are you going to do?"

"Then just stay here and watch," the king said coldly, "Compared to you, a coward, look at me, how the cold-blooded iron-fisted king faced the wrath of the dragon."

"What?" Val laughed miserably: "Are you going to recruit children under the age of fourteen to serve in the army again?"

The king ignored him, but turned to Exeter's urgent envoy.

"Baron Russell, at least I have satisfied the third condition of your condition just now—unfortunately, whether it is the Guardian Duke of the North or the Grand Duke of the Black Sand Territory, I can't give you both. Some people were also involved, so it seems unreasonable to ask us for territory or resource compensation.”

Russell replied with a heavy face: "This is impossible! Just now I only saw your Star Palace making noise back and forth, but there is no evidence that the Grand Duke Heisha was involved!

"Exter insists on the compensation conditions just now. The specific amount can be negotiated, but it must not be waived... Otherwise," he raised his head: "Otherwise—let us meet on the battlefield and speak with swords!"

The nobles in the hall began to whisper, and Val, who was guarded by the guards from left to right, even started to sneer.

"Besides, the anger and despair of King Nun's loss of his only heir cannot be filled by a mere murderer!" Russell added with a gloomy expression.

The king sighed.

"Yeah," King Kessel V said sullenly, "I feel it."

Russell raised an eyebrow.

"I feel his anger and despair." The king said sadly: "For King Nun, this is indeed unfair."

"The mission was assassinated, the prince was unfortunate—no matter who did this, they not only humiliated Exeter, but also humiliated Xingchen! Xingchen's shame in this matter is even a thousand times, a hundred times greater than the former!"

Many eyes turned to Val.

The king raised his head, his eyes were full of coldness:

"Xingchen has never thought of evading due responsibilities—since it harms fairness, we must pay the price for it."

The two earls in the north suddenly became nervous.

Could it be that the king really wants to sacrifice the northern border?

Also, after all—Duke Arend, he...

Zemuto sneaked a glance at Val, who smiled indifferently.

"Your Majesty is indeed a responsible and courageous person," Baron Russell smiled: "Whether it is from Pine Cone County to Bear County, or around Cold Castle, the specific land and even the area can actually be negotiated, as long as we satisfy……"

"You will be satisfied."

The king said coldly.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Supreme King of the Stars grabbed the scepter at hand, stood up from his throne again, and slowly walked down the steps.

King Kessel V walked towards the confused Russell step by step with heavy steps.

"Go and reply to King Nun, and your master in the Black Sand Territory—Xing Chen is deeply sorry for the mission's assassination,

I am deeply guilty. "

Russell smiled and nodded slightly: "I will take what you said, as for the compensation...we need a map to measure the territory..."

"No."

Russell was taken aback.

The Supreme King said coldly:

"The stars have no territory that can be compensated to Exeter, nor can it make up for King Nun's grief and loss."

Russell's expression changed.

Thales took a tight breath: This, is this the rhythm of "this_is_Sparta"?

"But the stars will not shirk their responsibilities."

said the king softly.

The next moment, the traveler's hairs stood on end!

Because the thirty-ninth supreme king of Xingchen, Kessel Canxing, slowly raised the scepter shining with strange starlight, and pointed it at——Thales!

"You haven't seen it yet, have you?" King Kessel V spoke slowly: "This is Thales Canxing, the second prince of Xingchen, my son and only heir."

Everyone looked at Thales.

"I will send him to Dragon Clouds City to apologize to King Nunn and Exeter."

Thales was stunned.

Russell was also stunned.

The king didn't even look at Thales, but his indifferent words continued: "If this is not enough, if the grief of losing a son cannot be appeased with an apology..."

"Don't King Nuen want fairness?"

"Then I'll give him justice."

"Tell King Nuen—he can kill my son, kill the only heir of the Star Kingdom, and avenge his only son and heir who died in the stars!"

"Let him fill the void with blood, and wash away his hatred with killing!"

"Exchange my son's life for his son's life! Use the blood of the stars to make up for Exeter's blood!"

What.

Thales stood dumbfounded.

He understood what the king said.

But he doesn't understand.

What?

At this moment, everyone in the hall, no matter nobles, lords, officials, guards, servants, and even the Duke of the North, all opened their mouths in shock!

"Your Majesty—" Gilbert's face was livid, and he wanted to speak immediately, but someone was faster than him.

"His Majesty!"

For the first time in history, Duke Cullen looked serious, and he said nervously, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

Thales trembled, his ears buzzing.

But he couldn't feel his breath.

"Shut up, Bob," Kessel replied coldly, "your king has made his decision."

Cullen stared blankly at the High King, unable to speak a word.

Even Falkenhauser couldn't laugh anymore.

Behind him, Zhan En looked at Thales with a complicated expression, while Cyclops lowered his head in deep thought.

At that moment, the nine-star crown on Kessel's head was shining brightly. Like a ruthless god, he said word by word to Russell who was completely stunned:

"Yu Si, the only son of one father, and the only son of another father, should be able to fill his anger and despair, right?"

"Gong Yu, the heir to the king of the Star Kingdom, and the heir to the grand duke of Dragon Clouds City—is it fair?"

The king stepped down to the ground, and the thick and majestic voice roared like thunder:

"Since they're all stained with the blood of each other's only heirs—Xingchen doesn't owe Exeter anything anymore!"

"Fair enough!"

"At that time, we can't turn back! Let go of all scruples and burdens, and with the determination to completely destroy each other, start a full-scale war!"

"That's fair enough!"

Russell's pupils kept shrinking, and he was stunned by the king's sudden shocking words. He raised the scroll on his right hand, his jaw trembled, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

It is one thing to maximize the interests of Exeter (and perhaps the Grand Duke of Lombard) through a nasty diplomatic incident.

but.

Sacrificing the only heir - and the stars are not like Exeter's king selection system, the hereditary prince is killed, this will be a life-and-death blood feud that will last for several generations, dozens of generations - so that the two countries will become mortal and life-or-death The deadly enemy of the country, triggering the war of destroying the country-this is another matter!

Under the majestic and powerful eyes of King Kessel, Russell was sweating coldly, his brows were constantly changing, as if he was fighting fiercely in his mind - to decide his reaction and words.

"This... this... my level, I can't give an immediate answer on this matter..." he stammered.

King Kessel V yelled angrily: "Then ask your king!"

Russell took a step back in horror.

The Supreme King didn't look at Thales, and he continued to say gloomyly: "Tell him, last night, I sent Baron Alaka Mu to the Broken Dragon Fortress with two thousand royal standing troops!"

"Prince Thales will set off later, and go to King Nun in person, and let him dispose of him!"

"This is the price the stars can pay!"

The people in the hall did not dare to take a breath.

The king glanced at Russell, who was frowning and at a loss: "As for the Grand Duke Lumbard of the Black Sand Territory... I know that he has deployed a heavy army and is ready to invade the northern border at any time."

"Whether to get out of the way and escort my son to Dragon Clouds City to apologize, or recklessly start a war against Baron Mu - how he chooses, I will wait and see!"

Russell stepped back dejectedly, panting heavily, like a drowning person.

"His Majesty!"

The speaker was the fifteen-year-old Duke Lyanna. I saw this beautiful girl with a pale face at this moment:

"He—His Royal Highness is your only, sole heir. If something happens to him... your throne..."

"Ha!" The Supreme King laughed angrily, "It's too simple!"

Thales trembled all over, looking at everything in front of him.

King Kessel V turned around and faced the lords in the hall.

"No matter what happens to the second prince, the king's veins are severed..."

"The one who completely destroyed the enemy of Xingchen, the one who successfully avenged the last Prince Canxing, the one who finally avenged the humiliated Xingchen..."

The king turned abruptly and held up his scepter:

"He is the next Supreme King of the Star Kingdom!"

"If Xingchen doesn't even have such a person."

Kessel glanced coldly at the nobles in the hall, uttering words like knives with great force:

"Then what's the point of its existence!"

The silence of the hall.

"Let's adjourn the meeting." Kessel concluded coldly: "I'm waiting for King Nuen's reply."

at this moment.

"Kay."

The pale-faced Duke Val Arend struggled to speak.

He looked at Kessel in disbelief, and then at Thales: "What are you... so crazy about?"

King Kessel V sneered.

"go Ape?"

The king snorted coldly, and spit out what he had just said to Val as if mocking:

"Everything I do is for the stars."

Two guards stepped forward and escorted the startled Duke away.

Russell left sweating profusely.

The lords were whispering, looking at the king and at his heir.

Gilbert clenched his fists and looked at His Majesty in the star blue cloak.

The king strode away without looking at anyone again.

Only Thales was breathing in a trance.

Unaware of the gazes in the hall.
