Chapter 449 Don’t Quarrel With His Majesty!
When the guard heard the Ruler’s instruction, he did not dare to be negligent. He quickly rushed out of Central Plains City and headed west to find Mike.
The Ruler looked at the battle report on the table and could not suppress the frustration in his heart.
He looked to the west and muttered, “Mike, Oh Mike, you really give me a headache.”
The guard flew out of the west gate and began to fly in the direction of Mike.
Mike was discussing the next step with Little Jerry when he sensed the guard flying over from the east.
Mike’s lips curled up and he said to Little Jerry, “It seems that His Majesty can’t hold it in any longer. If he holds on for a while longer, I really don’t know what to do.”
Mike looked at the flying guard and leisurely drank tea.
The guard flew to Mike’s side, bowed to Mike and said, “Lord Mike, what time is it now? Why are you still in the mood to drink tea? Hurry up and go to the imperial palace with me. His Majesty has a task for you.”
Mike shook his head and said, “I’m not going.”
“Ah?” The guard was stunned and asked, “Why?”
Mike asked, “Have you forgotten? I just quarreled with His Majesty a few days ago. What if His Majesty is in a bad mood today and wants to kill me? Then what should I do?”
When the guard heard this, he smiled bitterly. “Aiyo, Lord Mike, don’t worry. This time, there really is something good waiting for you, and it’s a big deal.”
Hearing this, Mike took out a divine-grade magic beast crystal core and placed it in the guard’s hand. He asked, “Lord Guard, tell me, what does His Majesty actually want?”
The guard looked troubled. He released his spiritual power and found that the divine power in the core was extremely pure, and it had the same attributes as his. He smiled and said, “His Majesty probably wants you to lead the troops to the front line to fight against the Dark Magi.”
Mike was about to say something when he heard the guard say, “Hey, don’t worry. I haven’t finished speaking. I don’t think it will be like last time. You should be able to get whatever you want. However, you have to be mentally prepared. There might be some process involved.”
“What do you mean?” Mike did not understand what the guard’s last sentence meant.
The guard shook his head and said in a low voice, “We can’t talk about it anymore. It’s not good for both of us.”
Mike nodded and said, “Then please wait for a moment, Lord Guard. We need to explain some things first.” The guard nodded and said, “Please hurry
up.”
Mike nodded and walked to the side with little Jerry.
Little Jerry looked at Mike and said slowly, “Mike, you have to be careful. Don’t fall into that guy’s trap.”
Mike nodded and said to Little Jerry, “Don’t worry. No one is more familiar with the current Spiderweb than me. He can’t touch
me.”
Little Jerry nodded and said, “It’s better to be careful. Don’t leave any evidence for him.”
Mike nodded and said, “Don’t worry.”
Mike thought for a moment and said to Little Jerry, “If the first thing you say when you come back is that I didn’t take on any position, and that you didn’t use the title of Dragon Castle. You should immediately lead everyone to continue retreating to the west.”
Little Jerry nodded and said to Mike in an extremely solemn manner, “Don’t worry, I’ll be on my guard.”
Hearing that, Mike nodded and followed the guard to fly in the direction of Central Plains City.
The Ruler’s big hand kept knocking on the table. He asked the figure in the darkness, “Tell me, how do I pin Mike down?”
The figure in the darkness said, “Do you want to hear the truth?”
The Ruler nodded.
The voice said, “Don’t pin him down and let him develop. At the same time, keep elevating Mike and belittling everyone around him. Let everyone else think that Dragon Castle relied on Mike alone to achieve its achievements today.”
The Ruler narrowed his eyes and asked, “You mean to kill Mike and at the same time, escalate the internal conflict between Dragon Castle and their allies?”
The figure in the darkness said, “Not only that, we should also make the Dark Magi shift their gaze away from us and let them focus on dealing with the Dragon Castle. At the same time, we should also make the nails we buried in the Dragon Castle move and suppress the atmosphere to the tensest moment. At this time, we must see how Mike will deal with this mess.”
The Ruler frowned. He shook his head and said, “It’s not enough. If we only do this, if Mike pulls out his hands, it will still be very troublesome. So, we have to prepare a second plan. If necessary, we can give up some prefectures. As long as we can get the Dark Magi to surround the Dragon Castle…”
The figure in the darkness chuckled and disappeared into the darkness again.
At this moment, Mike did not know that there were vicious plans against him.
Mike and the guard landed on the ground. The guard looked at Mike and chuckled. “Lord Mike, can you promise me something first?”
Mike asked, “What is it?”
The guard asked, “Can you promise me that you will never quarrel with His Majesty again?”
Mike chuckled. “How can you say that? Have I quarreled with His Majesty before?”
The guard smiled apologetically. “No, no.”
Mike nodded and said to the guard, “Sir, thank you for your advice.”
The guard did not say anything and said to Mike, “Sir Mike, please go in quickly.”
Mike nodded and walked quickly toward the palace.
Mike entered the palace and looked at the Ruler.
Mike saw the Ruler’s eyes and his heart suddenly twitched. He subconsciously wanted to escape.
What kind of eyes were those? They were malicious, evil, ferocious, and with majestic killing intent. They suddenly pressed towards Mike. It was like a huge mountain that instantly hit Mike.
Mike felt suffocated in his chest, and he had the urge to vomit blood.
Endless anger surged in his heart. He looked at the Ruler, and his black single eye split into golden double pupils. Similarly, endless killing intent surged out, preparing to fight against the Ruler.
“Can you promise me that you will never quarrel with His Majesty?”
The words that the guard had said to him suddenly appeared in Mike’s mind. He hurriedly withdrew his double pupils and killing intent, and bowed to the Ruler.
“Your Majesty.”
The Ruler sat on the golden chair and sneered. He looked at Mike and said hypocritically, “Mike, it’s windy at the door. Come in quickly.”
Mike also sneered. He took two steps forward, his waist still bent.
Mike hated his current appearance, but he had no choice. He had to endure all this now.
A smile appeared on Mike’s face as he said to the Ruler, “Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty.”
The Ruler also forced a smile and said to Mike, “This is what I should do. You have lived in a Otherworld for half a lifetime, so you can be considered a person from Otherworld. I am the Lord of the Otherworld, so I should care about you.”
Mike frowned slightly. He sneered and looked at the Ruler. He smiled and said, “His Majesty is kind-hearted. He must be a wise master that has never been seen before.”
The Ruler looked at Mike and nodded. He was very satisfied with Mike’s words. He looked at Mike and shouted, “Men, take a seat for Mike.”
The two guards brought out a golden chair and placed it behind Mike.
‘Why is it a golden chair?’ Mike thought, ‘This guy is really proud and conceited. How could he allow me to sit on the same chair as him?’
Mike looked back at the seat behind him. It was so hot that it would burn his ass.
