Chapter 618: You Are Not Allowed To Leave
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Blake looked at the fat young man in front of him. He had a smile on his face, but he was deep in thought.
He knew the person in front of him. He was the eldest son of Lord Constantine. He was initially a good-for-nothing who only knew how to eat. The residents of the royal city had even given him the nickname Duke Piggy.
However, when faced with him, Duke Piggy did not panic at all, despite being pointed at with a sword. That level of determination was not something that an ordinary person could possess. He had only followed Watson for a few days, yet he had already made such a huge change.
The first time he met Watson was in the City of Steel. He was forced to end the mission of monitoring Christina because of Watson. After that, he went to the floating city and then returned to the royal city.
After returning to the royal city, King Landhar III did not comment on his previous work. He arranged a job for him to monitor the movements of the various ministers in the royal city. He had long known that Duke Piggy had sent the people from the Everything House to spread rumors about King Landhar III in the royal city to sow discord between the King and the ministers. He did not care about it before because Duke Piggy’s actions benefited the kingdom.
People Duke Piggy could instigate proved that they were not loyal enough to the Holy Dragon Kingdom. After His Majesty dealt with Watson, they could wash the kingdom with those people’s blood.
However, he could not remain indifferent for long because the rumors were getting more and more ridiculous. At first, the rumor was that the Primordial Demoness had possessed King Landhar III. Then, it became that King Landhar III was infatuated with the Primordial Demoness’ body. Finally, it became that King Landhar III was infatuated with the female body. After Queen Avril died, he secretly buried her body in a special coffin so that it would not rot because he had been satisfying his perverted desires with that.
Blake was drinking water when he first heard those rumors, and he almost choked to death. He did not know who would spread such ridiculous rumors. He did not know how a person could easily believe those rumors.
With no other choice, he began to lead the assassins to capture the rumor-mongers, and in the end, they followed the clues and found that place.
He still admired Duke Piggy. He was willing to do anything for Watson. That kind of loyalty was very rare.
“You should surrender. Write down the evidence that Watson instructed you to commit a crime so that I won’t kill you. ”
…
Duke Piggy listened to the words of the handsome young man in front of him. His expression did not waver at all.
Surrender?
He would not surrender, much less accuse Watson. It was not Watson’s order to have the people from the Everything House spread those rumors. The Everything House was an intelligence network that Watson had put a lot of effort into building, and the information that spread from it was essential for authenticity. As an intelligence network, its credibility would be destroyed once the information was degraded.
If Watson had known that he had sent people to spread those rumors, he might have punished him. However, Duke Piggy did not regret it. He had lived in ridicule since he was young; even his father was disappointed because of his pig-like body size. In that lifetime, the only people who discovered his brilliance were Deena and Watson.
When he first met Watson, he felt a little inferior. Watson was only 12 or 13 years old, and he was already the kingdom’s strongest genius. He was young but powerful and full of wisdom. However, after interacting with him, he learned that Watson was an approachable person. He was generous toward others, and he even offered him a high salary of a million gold coins a month.
When he received the first sum of gold from Watson and brought it home, he still remembered that it was the first time his father was surprised by his ability. It was also the first time he saw his father hiding in the study and crying. He kept saying, “There is hope for the future of the family.”
Ever since then, he had made up his mind to follow Watson for the rest of his life. No matter what Watson wanted to do, he would try his best to help him achieve it. It was such a lucky thing to have someone he wanted to follow in his life.
After learning that King Landhar III was fighting Watson, the Constantine family did not express their stance. They tacitly agreed that he would continue to stay in the Everything House. It was obvious that they had decided to stand on Watson’s side. Duke Piggy did not have any fear at that moment.
Retracing the thoughts that kept surging in his mind, he cracked his neck. The bones in his body emitted a crisp sound. “I won’t surrender. If you want to capture me, then come at me. ”
He had taken the Dragon Transformation Potion and could transform into a diamond-tier God-eating Dragon. The assassins in front of him looked like they were only at the peak of gold-tier. They were no match for him.
…
“What a pity.”
Blake threw the broken platinum-tier longsword onto the ground. He wiped the blood from the fractured armor on his chest and panted as he retreated.
In front of him, Duke Piggy was lying on the ground. His body was full of blades. His eyes rolled upward; it was obvious that he had fainted.
“Blake, it took you so long to catch a criminal. If it weren’t for my help, you would have failed. As an assassin, that is a great dereliction of duty. Should I report that to His Majesty?”
Not far behind Duke Piggy, a woman with revealing clothes and a beautiful face sat on the table with her legs crossed. Her long and fair legs attracted the attention of all the assassins in the room, but they did not dare to look at her. They knew that the woman was one of King Landhar III’s top assassins. She was known as the Torture Tool.
Her strength was at peak platinum-tier. Before she killed anyone, she liked to torture them with tools. Even though she was only platinum-tier, she possessed assassination techniques and poison. She could even kill a diamond-tier elite.
King Landhar III previously controlled the top assassins, and they did not know each other. However, they were connected at that moment because of the extraordinary times.
There were many powerful assassins under the command of King Landhar III. On the surface, Sword Saint Reid was the strongest in the Holy Dragon Kingdom, but in fact, he was not.
“Lady Torture Tool, don’t make fun of me. I’m only a speck of gold, and my strength, of course, pales in comparison to yours.” Blake smiled wryly.
The torturer appeared to be very happy. “Leave that to me. You guys go do something else first. Before I kill that fat pig, I want to play with him first. Where should I start dissecting him later? Seeing that he has so much meat on him, it should be enough for me to play with him for a while. After His Majesty kills Watson, I want to chop that fat pig and the kingdom’s strongest genius into specimens. That scene should be very striking.”
“Yes.”
Blake’s lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he did not say anything in the end. He just nodded and walked out.
At that moment, Duke Piggy, who had fainted on the ground, seemed to have heard something. His fingers moved, and his arm supported his body as he struggled to get up from the ground. He coughed up blood as he shouted in a hoarse voice.
“Wait, you’re not allowed to…. go!”
