Chapter 284: Stealing the Country

At the same time, the kingdom of Theopharan.

Goeben...... It seems that you have not changed at all, and I left you alive because I thought that you might wake up sooner or later, but I never thought that you would intensify your collusion with the Chaos Cult in an attempt to steal all of Theophalan!

High on the throne, a man with a silver scepter confronts Goeben Azuk, who has broken into the palace.

This conversation took place several years before Goebben's exile. The man also broke into the temple of Theopheran's heroes with his bare hands, trying to seize the scepter from his hand. He did not know where Goben-Azuk's hatred for the Henry clan and the entire Horutia League came from, and when Goeben was born, centuries had passed since Theopharan's ancestors had fought with the Henrys, and during those years most Theophalan had put aside his hatred and intended to live in a kingdom that belonged only to them.

Unlike years ago, this time Goeben was not stepping on the corpses of the guards, and the king did not even hear any fighting before the other party appeared.

Everything seemed too quiet, and the red moon that came out of nowhere in the dark always gave him a bad feeling.

"What did the Henry family do to you?"

Goeben was slow to answer, and the king accentuated his tone.

"Nothing......" Goeben, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly grinned and laughed.

His smile sent chills down the king's heart.

The king could not help but think of the scene when Goebon was born, who did not cry like the other children, and from the moment he opened his eyes, Goeben looked at everything around him with his empty gaze. Theophalam's prophet prophesied that this child would be a curse to Theophalan.

The old king blocked the news and forbade anyone to talk about the visions that the Prophet had seen in the divination crystal, and he treated Goeben-Azuk like a normal child, but the strange rumors about Goeben never stopped. Although he had the same dark complexion as the other Theopharans, his physique made him stand out from the crowd.

Most impressively, when Goeben was fifteen years old, he crossed the king's borders without permission, and when the anxious people found him, they were surprised to find that Goeben, who had never received any combat training, had killed several exiles with his bare hands.

And now, everything seems to confirm the prophet's prophecy.

Obviously, the king was not the only one who thought so, and in the darkness, a man said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the prophecy is true, this time you can't be soft-hearted, if you can't make up your mind, let me make the right decision for you!"

Hearing this, Goeben finally raised his interest.

Almost at the same time, the man turned into three scattered black shadows, outflanking Goeben from all angles.

"Shadow Attack!"

This is one of the Crow Assassin's supreme skills, and it is difficult to distinguish between reality and fiction in the three afterimages, and before the target can tell who is the real person, the assassin's sharp knife is already pointed at the throat of the target. A few years ago, Goeben had been defeated by a similar technique.

He knew the man.

He studied the assassination skills of the Crow Assassins, and the old king was the king's personal guard when he was alive, and no one in the whole Theopharan could match the assassination skills. The Master Assassin had never missed, and Goebburn remembered that thrilling moment a few years ago—his dagger was pointed at his throat, and he probably wouldn't have had a chance to make a comeback had it not been for the king to stop him.

"Goeben, the biggest mistake you have made is to re-enter this palace!"

As he spoke, the three afterimages dissipated at the same time, and the cold light reflected from the silver dagger was imprinted on Goben-Azuk's eyes.

"It's over!"

The Assassin's sword-wielding hand hung in the air and could not move any further, Goeben still had a grim smile on his face, his right hand was accurately grasped on the blade, and the Assassin's pupils shrank, and he saw the black lines on Goeben's thick forearms—a symbol of the inscription, and he was sure that Goeben had not mastered such power a few years ago.

He stepped back, only to find that his right hand had suddenly lost sensation.

"Look, it seems that the Master Assassin is nothing more than that. ”

As Goeben spoke, the Assassin realized that his knife-wielding right arm had turned into a stiff stone sculpture, and in his shocked gaze, Goeben's black energy surged on Goeben's other hand - "Earthquake - three stars!"

"Boom-"

The palace shook violently, and the walls on Go's side were full of cracks, as were the Assassins who attacked him. With a thrust, the Assassin's body fell heavily in front of the king and shattered.

"This power is ......"

Shocked by the excess, all the king's words were stuck in his throat.

The upheaval did not end there, for after his personal guards were smashed to pieces like statues, several figures suddenly appeared in the darkness, and the red moonlight entered the temple, and the king saw a familiar and terrifying pattern on the arms of these men—a black raven fluttering its wings.

This was Theopharan's former glory, but it was also a piece of history that he did not want to uncover.

"Sealing the Rook Assassin Training Tome and forbidding your children from learning Assassin skills is the worst decision you've ever made, and since you can't get the most out of it, I'm happy to do it for you...... Brother. ”

"You trained the Crow Assassin in private!"

"And that's not all. ”

Goeburn's face showed a look of pride: "I have almost taken off the head of Henry VI while you are pampered here, and in time, when I train an entire elite army of Crow assassins, it will be to remind those who have expelled us of our days of terror!"

Goeben's pride then turned to a little sympathy, and he commanded his subordinates: "Don't kill him, send him to prison, I look forward to his expression when he sees me subverting the imperial capital with my own hands...... Don't try to resist uselessly, as long as I want, I can take this kingdom from you in an instant, and I came here just to understand the grievances that were formed back then. ”

His gaze glanced at the shattered rocks.

The King's Bodyguard, the Master Assassin who combined the subtlety of the Crow Assassins, was reduced to rubble by his blow.

It is worthy of Theopharan's most forbidden power, and it took him nine deaths to get his hands on it.

"The end is already clear - your most trusted escort is dead, and there is no one in this kingdom who can stop me!"

Goeben raised his arms and announced to the dead king.

From now on, the scepter will be handed over to him, and he will be the only king of this kingdom.

The ideal he had dreamed of since he was a child has finally come true!
