Dark Ruler - Chapter219

Clang!!

The exquisite tea set was thrown to the ground and shattered into pieces.

Alexander glared fiercely at the pitiful guard captain who didn't even dare to breathe heavily. He swung his arm and hurriedly smashed the things on the table onto the ground. In an instant, all sorts of shattering noises sounded and the atmosphere in the room became even colder and heavier.

"So you guys came back just like that?

Hmm?

You guys actually came back just like that?

The other party only said a few words, and you guys just obediently came back like that?

A bunch of idiots!

You've completely thrown my face away!!

You're the disgrace of the Soros Family. You don't deserve to wear this uniform!

A bunch of trash. All of you are trash! "

"But Sir … That's the Bashanon Mens Family!"

Facing Alexander's question, the guard captain didn't even dare to breathe loudly, even though he knew that it was embarrassing for him to do so.

Although he knew that it was embarrassing for him to do so, the guard captain was glad that he paid more attention and investigated the background of these people. This wasn't a troublesome matter at all because Jenn's family emblem was on the carriage.

Nobles naturally exchanged information. Moreover, the emblem of the Holy Church on the family emblem was too conspicuous. Thus, they quickly found out the young man's true identity.

Then, this group of people was so frightened that they peed their pants.

Bashanon Mens.

This family hadn't been in Eagle Plateau for long, but everyone among the nobles knew about them. The reason for this was that Jenn's ruckus in Hardstone City had caused too much of an impact.

Even someone as strong as Sword Saint Stalker was sent flying by his sword, and the elite Silver Wolf Knights were beaten to the point where they couldn't even tell which way was north. In the end, he even forced the cunning Lord Sulett to apologize to him in front of everyone.

Even he had heard of this series of 'glorious deeds'. To be honest, before that, the guard captain felt that his superior was already the most arrogant and terrifying existence. But now, compared to this young man, it was like heaven and earth!

After investigating Jenn's true identity, the guard captain didn't dare to act rashly anymore. Besides, Jenn was a decorated noble, which meant that his title was a notch higher than other nobles.

Which part of the continent didn't have a church of the Holy Church?

Decorated nobles had a high status in the Church of Holy Light. Under such circumstances, wouldn't it be suicidal for them to go looking for trouble with Jenn?

After thinking about it, he decided to report back first.

No matter what, he couldn't let himself be the scapegoat. No matter what the final result was, the decision was in Alexander's hands.

He was not one of those idiotic good-for-nothings who would disregard everything just to please his master. His master was a noble, and if he acted on his own, he would provoke a war between nobles.

This kind of thing could be big or small. The simplest way to solve it was for two people who had a conflict to have a duel, and the winner would get everything.

But if things became serious, it was very likely that it would turn into a war. It was not unheard of for such things to happen between noble families. Sometimes, because of a woman, a word of quarrel, both sides could turn to each other and fight.

Of course, the captain of the guards didn't want to be the fuse of a war. In other words, he wasn't going to take the blame!

Let King Alexander deal with it himself!

"Hmph!!"

Hearing until here, Alexander's face darkened. Although he was arrogant, he wasn't an idiot.

Plus, he was a member of the Soros Family, so he naturally knew about the matter of Jenn defeating Stelke.

And now, hearing this name from his captain, not only did Alexander not feel afraid, but he became even more angry and disdainful.

"So?

This is the Soros Family's territory!!

This is the City of Thousand Rivers!!

It's not a place that lowly decorated nobles can behave atrociously. Do you think we should just swallow this insult? "

What else could he do?

Listening to Alexander's angry roar, the captain of the guards also cursed in his heart. In fact, he really wished that things would end like this.

Strictly speaking, the whole thing was Alexander's fault. If he didn't act arrogantly in front of others, how could he have kicked this iron plate?

Now that the other party didn't come to settle the score, it was already very magnanimous of him. Do you want to go to the door yourself and die?

But even though he cursed in his heart, he also knew that if he said these words out loud, he wouldn't be able to show his face anymore. That was why he just remained silent and let Sir Alexander vent his anger.

Facing a guy who didn't fight back nor scold back, Alexander was also dispirited. He roared for a while, but in the end, he still remained silent.

But at this moment, Alexander seemed to have thought of something and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"By the way, how many people did you say they came?"

"Five, Sir."

"Other than that damn bastard, who are the other four?"

"They seem to be that Sir's aide and maid. There's also a little girl in armor who seems to be a guard.

Other than them, there's no one else. "

"No personal guards?"

"No, Sir."

"Do you know what they're going to do next?"

"I heard from the inn owner that they intend to participate in the auction at the Radiance Fountain tonight."

"Good."

Hearing the captain's answer, Alexander's face once again revealed a sinister smile.

He sat back on the chair, crossed his arms, and seemed to be thinking about something.

And looking at his expression, the captain's heart skipped a beat. Of course, he couldn't be more familiar with his master. Every time Alexander revealed this expression, it meant that something bad was about to happen.

But it was a pity that there was nothing he could do to change anything now.

As expected, after a short while, Alexander slammed the table abruptly.

"Get Daros here immediately. At the same time, request for the Flame Guards and port guards to enter the first level of combat readiness!"

"Sir!?"

Upon hearing this, the captain's expression changed drastically. Mobilize the Flame Guards and port guards at the same time?

What exactly is this Sir trying to do?

If anything were to happen, it would be a huge mess!

"Cut the crap. Hurry up and pass the order!

I want them to be ready before nightfall. Hmph hmph hmph. So what if he's a Legendary Being?

I can't defeat him, but can't I take care of those little girls under him?

I heard they're all beauties?

That's good. I'll have fun with them, then strip them naked and throw them into the square for those lowly commoners to see. When that time comes, I'd like to see the expression on that bastard's face! "

"But, but Sir …"

Hearing this, the captain broke out in cold sweat. He didn't know what would happen if Alexander succeeded.

But he was sure that it wouldn't be anything good.

But if Alexander failed, then it would be equally troublesome. Thinking of this, he could only bite the bullet and advise in a low voice.

"Such a big matter, should we inform Mayor Locke …"

"There's no need for that!"

Alexander snorted coldly. Although he was only the person in charge of a garrison on the surface, in fact, as one of the successors of the Soros Family, Alexander still had a high status in Wallfor City.

Mayor Locke was only a subordinate loyal to the Soros Family and didn't have much status in the family.

It was only because he was good at internal affairs and business that he was assigned to this position.

As an outsider, of course, Mayor Locke wouldn't be stupid enough to go against the members of the Soros Family. This was one of the reasons why even though Alexander didn't have a high position, no one dared to stop him in the whole of Wallfor City.

And now, he wanted to mobilize two-thirds of Wallfor City's garrison. He didn't need Locke's consent at all.

After all, the whole city was the Soros Family's territory. To put it bluntly, the mayor was just an employee hired by the family. What right did he have to criticize his future boss?

"What are you waiting for?!"

Knowing that there was no room for negotiation, the captain no longer hesitated. After receiving the order, he turned around and left.

At this moment, Alissanda let out a cold laugh. He leaned back on the chair and gazed at the city that was gradually darkening.

It wasn't that Alexander didn't know how powerful Jenn was. It was precisely because of his existence that the Soros Family could be said to have completely failed in the federal conference. In the end, the duck that was originally in their hands could fly away. It was really disappointing.

But now, this was an opportunity given to him by the heavens.

If he could suppress this bastard, then those old fellows in the family would naturally look at him in a different light. At that time, his status in the Soros Family would rise along with the tide.

As for Jenn himself?

Alexander didn't care about him at all. Nobles had their own rules. Just because they killed each other in private didn't mean they could do the same thing on the surface.

Nobles were bound by ancient oaths. No one dared to kill a noble at will. Even if he was really angry, he absolutely couldn't kill Alexander because he would have to face a war. In Alexander's opinion, the power of the Soros Family was naturally not something that Jenn could compare to.

"Hmph, let me see how long you can be arrogant, bastard!"

Thinking of this, Alexander's face showed a sinister smile. He stood up and strode to the door.

"Someone, change clothes. I want to go to the Radiance Fountain!"
