Chapter 1025: 1025
It was reasonable for Reinholt to cry out in shock because he didn't even take the king who disappeared during the attack on Burning Dawn seriously .
Compared to the previous kings throughout the history of Saint Cyanda, the XI king was too normal, to the point that people would forget him easily .
Although there wasn't a truly any fabrications about his prestige, it was already at the lowest point for a king throughout the past hundred years .
However, a king like this ruined his plan . A heavy sense of humiliation appeared in Reinholt's heart .
"I'll kill you!"
Enraged by the embarrassment, he dashed towards the king but was stopped by the Burning Marquis .
Reinholt looked at Burning Marquis with a confused gaze .
The moment the king appeared, the Burning Marquis was showing a cold expression . He didn't even care about the confused gaze from his collaborator, instead, he locked gazes with the king .
"Are you related to Starbeck's disappearance?" Burning Marquis asked .
"Mm . I'm quite lucky, to be honest . I met the "Wiseman" in the beginning and accidentally noticed Starbeck… I can tell he is a good child but I didn't expect that his father was a hungry wolf that requires one to be cautious at all times . I didn't hurt him, I just sent him away to a safe place . "
Saint Cyanda XI nodded .
His cotton robe made him look like any common elder but anyone who took him as one would be the biggest idiot .
Reinholt did, so he lost his final spoils .
Burning Marquis did, so he "lost" Starbeck .
More importantly… it wasn't the end .
"You want to see Starbeck again? Kill him . "
The king turned his eyes at Reinholt .
Reinholt who swiftly woke up from his enraged embarrassment turned his attention to Burning Marquis .
"Lord Marquis, this is a trap! Stay awake, don't fall into it! Even if you kill me, he won't release Starbeck back to you, instead he will use this to threaten you and force to you do all sorts of things . He will treat you like a dog!"
Reinholt said loudly and added some wordplay in his statement .
He knew how prideful the Burning Marquis was and the Marquis would never withstand being ordered around .
Therefore, Reinholt shed light on that particular point and made a despicable description as well, however, there was another point that Reinholt did not consider .
Burning Marquis cherished his family, or one could say, he valued his only heir over anything .
Therefore, when the devil flame burned in the Marquis' hand, Reinholt dodged the fire in an ugly manner but he didn't give up just yet .
"You have more than one son! You can have another in the future and a new heir will be next in line!"
Reinholt's tone was very normal, as persuasion, it was very suitable but the moment his "persuasion" subsided, the devil flame in the Marquis' hand didn't just burn hot, it has a sense of terrifying killing intent as well .
Killing intent rumbled across the vault like boiling water .
The Burning Marquis didn't hold back anymore since his landmine was triggered by those words . He engulfed himself in his devil flame and the unique "frenzied state" appeared again .
Saint Cyanda XI smiled, a smile that came from his heart, the smile that he was most delighted of .
How could the old king not be delighted?
It was one of the merits throughout the hundred years of the Imperial household was most proud of yet was forced to conceal it .
The Burning and Dawn Family started off with many children . The thriving and prosperous state was gradually reduced to a desolate state and was even left with a single heir . This matter had unsevered ties to the secret spell that Saint Cyanda Imperials performed back in the day .
"I thank the two female ancestors of our household . "
Saint Cyanda XI thought in his mind before watching Burning Marquis slaughter Reinholt leisurely .
Other than "slaughter", the king couldn't think of any words to describe it .
