"Sir, can you please help me to solve this situation before my youngest escalates it further and does something unexpected?"
The king asked with an awkward smile since he felt awkward that he had shown something like this to the esteemed envoy from Velmara Kingdom.
"Hmmm?" The envoy frowned and looked at the king when he heard it, as he was still enjoying the show but was interrupted by the king's question.
"No! This is your own problem, and Velmara Kingdom won't interfere in any of your internal problems."
The envoy only shook his head, as his purpose here was not to help solve this kingdom's internal problem but for something else that was more important.
"Okay, but can I request something important from you?" The king asked once again.
"Huh? What is it? Just say it directly, there's no need to beat around the bush." The envoy was irritated at this time when he guessed that the king might still hadn't yet given up on including him in this mess.
"I apologize, but this is really important because you know Elder Zyran from the Flameforge sect, right? My eldest son was just accepted as his disciple a while ago.
Therefore, if an unexpected accident happens to him, Elder Zyran might become really angry. You can even do Elder Zyran a favor now that you're here."
The king explained slowly, thinking that this should be enough reason for the envoy to step in.
Because Elder Zyran was a strong practitioner who had reached the Peak-level Dominator Rank Martial Artist and was about to step into the King Rank.
Let alone the fact that the Flameforge sect was also a first-rate sect and on par with the Velmara Kingdom.
"Ohhh, he's that old man's disciple?"
The envoy murmured to himself and looked at Valen, looking for any special that made him get accepted by Elder Zyran's disciple in a few seconds before answering the king with a wave of his hand.
"I will only interfere when it's necessary, but that's all I can do."
"Thank you, sir." The king bowed slightly and walked back to his previous position.
…
"Dante, bring him to me and kill whoever gets in the way this time." Cain gave the order.
Dante then smiled viciously as he walked slowly, approaching the third prince with an unsheathed sword in his hand.
Roderick's entire body instantly shuddered before he stepped back staggeredly.
"Do you want to come over obediently or want me to play rough on you?" Dante asked with a smile while cracking his neck's bones as he held the back of his neck.
"H-Help me…"
Roderick looked to his left and right and begged for help as his mind was filled with fearfulness because he just watched Dante killing people as if cutting vegetables and slaughtering chickens.
One of Roderick's subordinates, who had reached Low-level Lord Rank Awakener, immediately bowed to Cain and said, "Youngest Prince, it's not the third prince's fault. It's my fault because I want to help the third prince by getting rid of any possible threat for him."
"Y-Yes, it's his fault, not my fault. He told me and insisted on me with that stupid plan when I told him that it's scummy behavior for me to get rid of you in this manner." Roderick didn't care with any dignity anymore and shifted the blame to his loyal subordinate.
He thought that it was worth it if he could pay for his precious life with his subordinate's life.
Dante then vanished into thin air before appearing behind Roderick's subordinate and cutting his head off easily, since he also didn't put up any resistance at all.
Subsequently, Dante tilted his head and looked at Roderick, who fell down on the floor and started to back off slowly using his hands and legs as he realized that it's not over yet.
Looking at the third prince who was frightened, Dante swung his sword lightly, wanting to clean the blood on the blade before continuing his step towards the third prince.
"W-Why are you still coming at me? You've killed the culprit! Youngest!! Why don't we stop here and let's discuss it with a clear mind?" Roderick stuttered before shouting loudly at Cain.
When Dante was about to grab Roderick, Valen shouted once again.
"Stop!! Youngest, that's enough right now. Stop it at once before things get out of control."
When he heard it, Cain immediately became pissed, as this was the second time Valen interrupted him.
"Ohhh, do you really want to stop me? With your punny strength?" Cain sneered and made a mocking face as if Valen was worth nothing in his eyes.
"You!" Valen pointed his finger again as he was so speechless that he was mocked twice before speaking with a proud face.
"You might not know this, but I've been accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Zyran from the Flameforge Sect. My master is also in his seclusion to break through to King Rank Martial Artist. If you know what's good for you, just drop this matter, and I'll pretend as if nothing had happened today."
Everyone was taken aback when they heard it, as this information was only known to a few people in this kingdom since they were in the middle of war, and Valen might become their first target if this was leaked to the outside world.
Because with the Eldest prince's master as their backer, this was their moment for their kingdom to finally soar into the sky.
"Really? I didn't know about this. So, I'm really sorry for not recognizing Mt.Tai…" Cain said as he bowed while cupping his fist before tilting his head up and looking at Valen with a mocking face.
"Is this the scenario of my response that you thought in your head after you told me your wholesome story?"
Cain then laughed loudly while putting his palm on his face, "Hahahaha!"
"Do you think I'd give a fuck about who your master is? Even if your master is here, I don't even care about his lousy opinion. Let alone you!
Do you understand your situation now? If you dare to interrupt me once again, I will rip your fucking mouth immediately."
Cain said with a serious expression as he thought to himself.
'Is this the so-called face-slapping someone? If yes, then it feels really great. No wonder the main characters are always face-slapping people left and right.'
