Chapter 6: The Iron Fist King (Part II)
Two members of the royal guard, dressed in silver eternal new armor, walked up to Val's side without saying a word. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Duke Cullen shook his head helplessly: "Friends are ruthless, brothers turn against each other, is there anything more sad than this?"
No one answered him.
After a while, Val Arend smiled indifferently and raised his head:
"At least I got one thing done. β
He looked at Baron Russell, who looked strange.
"I brought the war, didn't I?"
"Even if Rumba and I planned everythingβweren't it the restless nobles of Xingchen who killed the prince?"
Suddenly, Jenn, Cousin, and some of the counts all had strange faces, except for Duke Cullen, who still shook his head and sighed, as if he was still immersed in the brotherly rebellion just now.
Val said sadly, "Haha...... Kai, the stars are not recovering from their wounds, and they are no match for Exeter at all - what are you going to do?"
"Then you can watch here," said the king coldly, "compared to you coward, look at me, and see how the cold-blooded king of iron faces the wrath of the dragon." β
"What," Val laughed miserably, "are you going to conscript children under fourteen to serve as soldiers again?"
The king ignored him and turned to Exeter's emergency envoys.
"Baron Russell, you have at least met the third condition just now - unfortunately, whether it is the guardian duke of the northern realm or the grand duke of the Black Sand Territory, I can't hand over either of them to you, since the people in your country are also involved, it seems that it is no longer reasonable to ask us for compensation for territory or resources. β
Russell replied with a heavy face: "This is impossible! Just now I only saw your Star Court arguing back and forth, but there is no evidence that the Grand Duke of the Black Sand Collar is involved!"
"Exeter insisted on the conditions of the reparation, the specific amount of which can be negotiated, but it must not be exempted...... Otherwise," he raised his head, "otherwiseβlet us meet on the battlefield and speak with our swords!"
The nobles in the hall all began to whisper, and Val, who was guarded by the guards from left to right, even began to sneer.
"Moreover, the anger and despair of King Nunn who has lost his only heir can not be filled by a mere murderer!" Russell added with a gloomy face.
The king sighed.
"Yes," said Kessel V sullenly, "I feel it." β
Russell raised an eyebrow.
"I felt his anger and despair. The king said gloomily, "It is indeed unfair to King Nunn. β
"The assassination of the mission, the misfortune of the prince - whoever did it, they dishonored not only Exeter, but also the stars! The stars are even a thousand, a hundred times more disgraced than the former!"
Many eyes swept toward Vaal in unison.
The king raised his head, and his eyes were full of coldness:
"The stars have never tried to shirk their responsibilities - if it is unfair to us, we will pay for it. β
The two Earls of the North suddenly became nervous.
Is the king really going to sacrifice the north?
Also, after all, Duke Arrond ......
Zemutto stole a glance at Val, only to see the latter smiling indifferently.
"Your Majesty is indeed a responsible and courageous person," Baron Russell smiled: "Whether it is from Songguo County to Bear County, or around Hanbao, the specific land and even area can actually be discussed, as long as we are satisfied......"
"You'll be satisfied. β
The king said coldly.
In full view of everyone, the Supreme King of the Stars, grabbing the scepter at hand, rose from his throne again, and slowly walked down the steps.
Kessel V walked with heavy steps, step by step towards the doubtful Russell.
"You go and reply to King Nunn, and your master, the Star, in the Black Sand Realm, who is deeply sorry and guilty for the assassination of the Mission. β
Russell smiled and nodded slightly: "I will bring your words, as for compensation...... We need a map to measure the territory......"
"Nope. β
Russell was stunned.
The High King said coldly:
"The stars have no territory to compensate Exeter, nor can they compensate for the grief and loss of King Nunn. β
Russell's face changed.
Tails breathed tightly: This, is this the rhythm of "this_is_ Sparta"?
"But the stars don't shirk their responsibilities. β
The king said softly.
The next moment, the hairs on the traverser's body stood upside down!
Because the thirty-ninth supreme king of the stars, Kessel Bright Star, slowly raised the scepter that shone with strange starlight and pointed it at Tyles!
"You haven't seen it yet, have you?" said Kessel V, slowly, "This is Tails Bright Star, the second prince of the stars, my son and sole heir." β
Everyone looked to Tails.
"I will send him to Dragons to apologize to King Nunn and Exeter. β
Tails froze.
Russell was also stunned.
The king didn't look at Tails, but his cold words continued: "If that's not enough, if the grief of the loss of a son can't be calmed with an apology......"
"Didn't King Nunn want justice? β
"Then I'll be fair to him. β
"Tell King Nunn - he can kill my son, kill the only heir of the kingdom of stars, and avenge his only son and heir who died in the stars!"
"Let him fill the emptiness with blood, and wash away hatred with killing!"
"Exchange my son's life for his son's! Make up for Exeter's blood with the blood of the stars!"
What the.
Tails stood dumbfounded.
He understood the king's words.
But he didn't understand.
What the?
At this moment, the people in the hall, whether nobles, lords, officials, guards, servants, and even the Duke of the North, opened their mouths wide in shock!
"Your Majestyβ" Gilbert's face turned pale, and he wanted to speak immediately, but someone was quicker than him.
"Your Majesty!"
For the first time in history, Duke Cullen looked serious, and said in a nervous voice, "Do you know what you're talking about?"
Tails trembled, his ears buzzing.
But he couldn't feel his breath.
"Shut up, Bob," Kessel replied coldly, "your king has made his decision. β
Cullen looked at the High King in a daze, unable to utter a word.
Even Falkenhause couldn't laugh anymore.
Behind him, Jenn looked at Tails with a complicated expression, and the one-eyed dragon looked down in thought.
At that moment, the crown of nine stars on Kessel's head shone brightly, and he was like a ruthless god, word by word, to Russell, who was completely stunned:
"Yu Zhi, the only son of one father, for the only son of another father, should be able to fill his anger and despair, right?"
"Yu Gong, the heir to the king of the Star Kingdom, for the heir of the Grand Duke of Longxiao City-it's fair. β
The king stepped on the ground, and the thick and majestic voice roared like thunder:
"Now that they're all stained with the blood of each other's only heirs, the stars don't owe anything to Exeter anymore!"
"Fair enough, right?"
"At that time, we will not be able to turn back! Let go of all scruples and burdens, and start an all-out war with the determination to completely destroy each other!"
"That's fair enough, isn't it?"
Russell's pupils dilate, stunned by the king's sudden shocking words, he lifted the scroll in his right hand, his jaw twitched, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.
It's one thing to try to get the best of Exeter (and perhaps the Archduke of Rumba) by taking advantage of bad diplomatic events.
But.
The sacrifice of the only heir - and the stars are not like Exeter's elective monarchy, the killing of the prince of the hereditary throne will be a blood feud that will last for generations, dozens of generations - so that the two countries will henceforth become mortal enemies who will not share the heavens and die, and trigger a war of annihilation - this is another matter!
Under King Kessel's majestic and powerful gaze, Russell was drowning in a cold sweat and his brow shifted, as if his mind was in a fierce battle to determine his reaction and his words.
"This ...... This...... My level, I can't answer this right away......" he stammered.
Kaiser V shouted angrily: "Then go and ask your king!"
Russell took a step back in fright.
The High King didn't look at Tails, he continued to say gloomily, "Tell him that last night, I sent Baron Araka Mu to the Broken Dragon Fortress with two thousand royal standing troops!"
"Prince Tails will then set out and personally go to King Nunn's presence and be at his disposal!"
"That's the price the stars can pay!"
The hall was full of people, and the atmosphere did not dare to take a breath.
The king glanced at Russell, who was browning and confused: "As for the Archduke of Rumba in the Black Sand Collar...... I know he's heavily armed, ready to invade the North. β
"Get out of the way and escort my son to Longxiao City to apologize, or desperately go to war against Baron Mu - I'll wait and see how he chooses!"
Russell stepped back abruptly, gasping for air like a drowning man.
"Your Majesty!"
It was the fifteen-year-old Duke Lyanna who spoke, and I saw this beautiful girl, whose face was pale at this time:
"He, Your Highness, is your only, only heir, if something happens to him on the way...... Your throne ......"
"Hah!" the High King sneered, "It's too easy!"
Tails shuddered and looked at everything in front of him.
I saw Kessel V turn around and face the lords in the hall.
"Whatever happens to the second prince that severes the king's vein......"
"The enemy who completely destroyed the stars, the one who successfully avenged the last prince of the stars, and the one who finally disgraced the stars who lost face......"
The king turned abruptly and raised his scepter:
"It's the next supreme king of the Star Kingdom!"
"If only the stars didn't even have such a person. β
Kessel coldly glanced at the nobles in the hall, spitting out words like knives, with great strength:
"Then what is the point of its existence!"
The silence filled the hall.
"Break the meeting. Kessel concluded coldly: "I await a reply from King Nunn." β
Right now.
"Kay. β
Duke Val Arend, whose face was blank, struggled to speak.
In disbelief, he looked at Kessel and then at Tyers: "You...... What are you crazy about?"
Kessel V scoffed.
"Crazy?"
The King snorted coldly, mockingly, and spat out to Val what he had just said:
"Everything I do, it's for the stars. β
Two guards stepped forward and escorted the stunned Duke away.
Russell sweated and walked away.
The lords, whispering, looked at the king, and also at his heir.
Gilbert clenched his fists and looked at the star-blue cloaked majesty.
The king strode away without looking at anyone again.
Only Tails, breathing in a trance.
I didn't notice the eyes of the full hall.
