He had already wasted enough time, Vloyd must have run far away now, there is no way this man could possibly catch hi-
However, suddenly, Razor's expression changed as he saw a black-red-haired woman walking towards him and Nux.
"What is taking you so long?" The woman questioned.
"…"
Nux, however, didn't reply.
Seeing this, Ember frowned, she then turned towards Razor and questioned,
"Did you say something stupid? Perhaps anything to one of his wives?"
"…"
Razor didn't reply, Ember, however, understood his answer from his expression and sighed,
"There were better ways to die, you know…"
Razor didn't know what to say…
He didn't do it on purpose, he was just trying to waste as much time as possible, however, it was all useless now.
The man he was trying to buy time for…
Was lying on the floor, being dragged around by this woman, whether he was dead or alive, Razor didn't know, however, he knew that their plan had failed.
He… he had to think of something-
Suddenly Razor's eyes widened…
He lost his balance, he then glanced below and then, he noticed that his left leg was sliced off from his knee,
His brain finally registered the pain and,
"AAGGGGhhhGGHhhh!!!"
"Well, this might take a while…"
Ember sighed and then, she turned around.
Leaving Nux alone with that Idiot.
She then walked where Evane was and saw an interesting sight.
"Sister Evane! I know that our relationship wasn't the best, but we are still related by blood, please, spare me! Spare me just this once!"
Raguel was kneeling on the ground, his head near Evane's foot and he begged.
"I already spared you once."
Evane replied with an expressionless look on her face.
"I… I… Just this once! Please, Sister Evane. The last chance! Please spare me! I promise that I won't ever appear in front of you again! I will disappear! I will disappear and the Throne will be yours!"
Feeling that it was interesting, Ember smiled and walked toward the scene,
"Hmm? You might disappear, but what about the Fulvanius Duke House? They would not sit still right?"
Ember questioned with an amused smile on his face.
Raguel's eyes then fell on Ember and seeing her standing with Evane, placing one hand on Evane's shoulder and the other dragging Vloyd's body as if it was trash… Raguel realized that she was not a normal woman.
"D-Don't worry about the Fulvanius house! They won't do anything either! They would even serve Evane with loyalty once she becomes the Ruler!"
He answered.
"We can't take your words now, can we? You are not the Leader of the Fulvanius House, are you?"
Ember spoke.
"T-Then Kill him! Once he is gone, the Fulvanius House wouldn't dare to bare their fangs against you!"
Raguel pointed towards Cyneheard and shouted.
"Hmmm, that is a good idea."
Ember nodded.
"R-Right?" Raguel's expression changed.
"Hmm? How about we kill him and make you the new head of the Fulvanius House? I am sure you will be loyal to us, right?"
Ember questioned.
"Of course! To show you how loyal I am, I will kill him right in front of your eyes."
Raguel quickly stood up, a dagger then appeared in his hand, he walked towards Cyneheard, who still couldn't move and blood continued to pour out of his body.
"I await you orders,"
Raguel bowed.
"…"
Seeing his Great Grandson standing in front of him, ready to kill him, Cyneheard didn't say anything.
He just glanced at Ember and questioned,
"You are General Ember from the Woods Kingdom, correct?"
"You know me?"
Ember questioned back, not denying his claim.
"How can I not know one of the strongest King Stage Cultivators of the World? But what are you doing here? Why are you helping this girl?" Cyneheard questioned.
Evane just smiled.
"It's not about the girl, is it?" Cyneheard questioned.
"It must be that man, you are not helping her, but him." Cyneheard then glanced at Evane and spoke,
"The same goes for you, he is not your subordinate, it is the reverse… you are going to be his puppet… Heh…
I would like to see how Lady Astaria would react once she learns about this…"
Cyneheard chuckled.
The old man clearly misunderstood, however, Evane and Ember didn't bother to correct him.
In the end, Cyneheard glanced at Raguel and chuckled.
"I thought of this before, however, you are indeed similar to your grandfather, Thornton. Both of you are fools…"
"What are you talking about?"
Raguel narrowed his eyes.
"You are ready to kill the man who supported you for so long while demonstrating your loyalty… do you really think you are making a strong argument here?"
"…"
Suddenly, Raguel turned silent.
He then slowly turned towards Evane and Ember, Evane didn't have any reaction, however, Ember was looking at him with an amused look on her face.
Raguel finally realized.
"You were being fooled…"
Cyneheard laughed.
Raguel's expression changed.
He looked around, and noticed the Soldier's dead bodies, those scary spikes that pierced their bodies, a King Stage Cultivator who was being dragged around like trash, a King Stage Cultivator who was half dead…
He couldn't do anything…
Raguel fell on his knees again.
Tears rolled out of his eyes as he glanced at Evane and Ember and begged,
"Please… let me live…"
"Ugghh… it is not fun anymore…"
Ember groaned with a bored look on her face.
She then glanced at Cyneheard and spoke,
"You spoiled my fun."
"…"
Cyneheard didn't know what to say.
Seeing that he was completely ignored, Raguel didn't know what to do.
He then stood up and started walking towards Evane,
"Evane, do you know, I really regret the time when we were children, you, Lucas, and Lovis were especially close, I, however, was different. Due to my stupidity, I completely ignored you three, thinking you were fools, however, now, I really regret it…
I should have spent more time with you guys, I was secretly jealous…"
Raguel continued to walk towards Evane,
"So jealous that I-"
And once he was close enough, he jumped at her with a dagger in his hand,
'If I am going down, I will take you down with me!'
