"Anyway, they're old friends who have been fighting side by side for so many years, and you can really do it. The orc looked at the broken Regnar beside him, and then said to Alexander.

"This is an internal matter of our human race, and it has nothing to do with you orcs!" Alexander grabbed Haoyue and rushed forward again. He still doesn't know the identity of this orc, but judging from the strength of the orc's blow just now, Alexander estimates that this orc is just a nineteenth-level high-level warrior, and in the face of him, a person with attribute ability who has stepped into the holy realm, Alexander doesn't think that he will lose.

But when the second prince approached the orc, he realized how wrong he was. When Alexander swung his sword and tried to cut off the orc's head, a majestic aura comparable to the ancient desolate demonic beast suddenly erupted from the orc's body, and at the moment when Alexander was stunned by the sudden outburst of the orc, the giant orc moved, it was a straight punch without any fancy skills, almost any skill to speak of, but with unstoppable amazing strength and terrifying speed like lightning.

Rumble!

The orc just punched Alexander in the chest, and the explosion caused by the fist was even comparable to the fireball technique released by a mage, you know, it was a casual blow from the orc!

Alexander undoubtedly flew out upside down again, unlike last time, this time Alexander clearly felt his sternum shattered, and his heart even stopped beating for a few seconds due to the squeeze of the huge force, if it weren't for the continuous recovery of the Body of Light, the orc's casual punch was only enough to kill Alexander in seconds!

Alexander's head was stunned for at least ten minutes because of the violent impact, and when he was awake again, the orc still did not leave. At this point, the guy crouched beside Regner, smearing the ointment on Regner's body with an ointment that he had gotten out of nowhere. And under the effect of those strange ointments, Regner's broken body began to recover continuously, and even the severed limbs began to grow slowly again.

"This is the holy medicine that Xiao Aoju made for me with the power of the empire, and this time it will be cheaper for you kid. The orc carefully smeared his thick fingers on Regner's body, muttering in his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Alexander's face became ugly, from the short fight just now, he had already guessed the identity of the orc, and now if this orc showed such obvious kindness to Regner, then Alexander felt that he might not be able to kill Regner today no matter what.

But the second prince still didn't give up, he stood up with difficulty with his sword and said loudly to the orcs: "Your Excellency is Clayton, who is known as the blood-colored god of war among the orcs?"

"It seems that I, Clayton, am still a little famous, and even people from another continent know my name. The orc replied half intently, without even glancing at Alexander.

"Do you know who that person is beside you?" asked Alexander.

"Yes, Regner, Ragnar Dark Elegy, an unsuccessful little assassin. Clayton's tone was light, as if he was completely unaware that the "unsuccessful little assassin" he spoke of had almost ruined Melindell just now.

"Then did you know that Regnar was the culprit who almost wiped out the entire human race on the Chino continent, and just now, he almost destroyed the entire Melindell?!" Alexander asked sharply as he held up the moon.

"Oh. ”

"Oh?"

"What you said has nothing to do with me, so I can only answer like this. Clayton seemed to have finished his treatment of Regner, he stood up and looked at Alexander and said, "Listen, human boy, I don't know and don't care how many plans, conspiracies, and tricks you have here, none of this has anything to do with me. However, this kid has a kindness to our orc chieftain, and the benefactor of the big chief is the benefactor of our orc clan, and we orcs have always been revenge, so today this kid, I, Clayton, must be saved, if you want to stop me, then just try. ”

"Your Excellency is saying this kind of thing, is it because you want to cause a war between the Orc Empire and the Chino Continent?!" Alexander's eyes froze.

"Watch the way you speak, boy!" the orc let out a roar of rage, like thunder and a dragon, "I don't care what status you have among the humans, even if you really have the power to command the entire human race in the Chino Continent, it is not enough for me to be afraid. The humans of your Chino continent have reached the brink of social collapse due to wars and disasters, and even at this time, do you still want to fight the orc empire?"

"......" Alexander didn't speak again, in fact, he also knew very well that the current Hawke Empire was not capable of waging any more wars, and the reason why he said this just now was just to force Clayton to back down.

"If you really want war, then come on!" Clayton hugged Regner with one hand: "Orcs have always been a warlike race, to be honest, I even think that I have been at peace with the Nine Cities Alliance for a long time in the past few years, maybe I should fight with you people from the Chino Continent again?"

"You!" Alexander, choked speechless, he never expected Clayton's response to be so forceful.

"Hmph!" Clayton glanced at Alexander with disdain, and then leaped to his feet and flew straight into the sky like a cannonball.

Seeing Clayton leave, Alexander, who had been gritting his teeth and insisting, couldn't hold it anymore, his eyes were black, and he finally fainted because of his serious injuries.

A few days later, Alexander finally woke up.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?!" In a drowsy state, Alexander faintly heard the cries of the court maids, and he felt only dizzy in his head, and fell asleep again.

A few hours later, Alexander woke up again, and this time, he was much better than before.

"Your Majesty......" As soon as Alexander opened his eyes, he saw Alfred on one knee.

"It's you, Alfred......" Alexander slowly tried to sit up.

Alfred hurriedly helped him, and he asked, "Your Majesty, after a long time after everyone had left, there was no movement from Melindel, so I rushed back with a few other soldiers of the city guard, and found you lying in the square, and Regnar ......"

"......" Alexander was silent for a moment, and finally answered truthfully: "He was rescued by Clayton, and now he is missing." ”

"Clayton, orc's blood-colored god of war?" Alfred's eyelids jumped.

"That's a monster......" Alexander smiled wryly.

"So, what are we to say about Regner?"

Alexander thought for a while and said: "This matter should be kept secret, just the two of us know about it, and say to the outside world that he is dead, and the imperial crisis has been resolved." ”

"Yes......" Alfred nodded, and then asked, "Your Majesty, I heard that when you woke up, the ministers of the empire are waiting in the palace chamber, do you want them to come and see you?"

"Let's ...... They'll come in, too. Alexander rubbed his temples, he had just woken up and hadn't noticed the change in how Alfred called him.

After a while, the ministers of the empire walked in one after another, and they were all relieved to see that Alexander was safe and sound, and then under the leadership of Chancellor of the Exchequer Andrew, everyone else knelt on the ground: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, wake up safely." ”

"Your Majesty?" Alexander, for a moment, realized the problem with the title.

"His Majesty Ralvein, the first king, has passed away, and the eldest prince Joffrey has also been assassinated by Regner, and now this empire needs you to lead. Alfred said to Alexander.

"......" Alexander looked at the ministers present and was silent for a long time, and finally he took a deep breath: "Announce to the world, starting tomorrow, I, Alexander Hawke, will be the third king of the Hawke Empire. In addition, I decree that from tomorrow onwards the Empire will begin a period of mourning for a month, in which the whole Empire, from the king to the slaves, shall eat fasting and shall not kill at will. It honors the heroes who died in the Civil War and the tide of death. ”
