The Devil’s Cage - Chapter 788

Chapter 788




"Who? Well, it's a middle-aged officer in Herl City . " Kieran replied like that .

"Please inform me of his name, I shall bring the men forth to confront him!" Eander said with his ever indignant mood .

"Are you sure you want to confront him?" Kieran showed a ridicule smile on his face .

Right away, Eander shivered from the bottom of his heart .

"No . . . No need then! Your Highness, please wait! I'm just a pitiful messenger, not the person-in-charge of the camp… Please allow me to pass the message to the highest authority within Carlhart!" Eander said with a frightened tone after he understood what Kieran meant .

"One chance! I'll give you that much! If…"

Kieran prolonged his tone and Eander quickly expressed his gratitude with a sob, saying, "I very much appreciate the chance! Thank you for your mercy!"

Kieran then killed off the ball of devil's flame on his hand and shooed Eander away .

Eander left instantly as though he was being pardoned .

Though he didn't stand up and leave but crawled backward slowly until he left the room . Only then did the messenger dare to stand up .

He wiped the sweat away from his forehead and swiftly boarded the wagon outside the hotel . He then ordered the wagoner to quickly return as his facial expression instantly turned heavy .

Eander knew it was that "guy", who started to grow restless again .



The wagon smoothly returned to the core location of Carlhart . It was a practice field as big as a soccer field with a three-story building and an independent hall .

The wagon stopped in front of the hall as Eander walked in with quick steps .

Right now, the hall that could fit five to six hundred men only had 10 Mutants sitting around, it looked extremely spacious and quiet .

Eander's footsteps then echoed in the hall and when he stopped, the 10 other Mutants threw their questioning gaze at him .

"That is a real Royal!" Eander said .

Instantly, the faces of the 10 Mutants underwent different changes .

Some were relieved, some were nervous . One of them asked directly, "Then why is His Highness here? What is his purpose?"

"Herbert! That human scholar that has been studying our history . Our old rivals purposely leaked the information and lured His Highness here, hoping that we… Eh!"

Before Eander finished talking, the Mutants present already knew what was going on .

After all, since they took over Carlhart Military Camp, both sides had been fighting using both open and secretive means .

"Damn it!"

"That bastard!"

"Rascal!"



Similar words of cursing sounded repeatedly .

"Enough!"

A fairly low voice sounded .

Following the voice, the cursing in the hall ceased and all the other Mutants threw their gazes at the Mutant sitting right in the middle .

He was an extremely strong Mutant with a body of tightened muscles that was full of scars .

Although he was sitting, his height was even taller than a common man, especially his breathing, it sounded like a clap of thunder with every breath he took .

"Carlhart, what should we do?" One of the Mutant asked .

Carlhart, the name that the member every generation that possessed the highest authority the camp would choose . After the Mutants took over, they preserved the traditions as well .

It wasn't any respectful means but it was only just a mere promise made in the beginning .

"Prepare a feast to welcome His Highness!" Carlhart said .

Right away, half of the Mutants showed joy on their face, only two to three were left with worries .

The remaining one or two didn't show any expression at all as if the matter didn't even concern them .

"Carlhart, don't forget the promise we made with the high ranks of Langdon before! We are different than Edgar's bunch . " One of the Mutants reminded .

"Mm . We are different but it doesn't mean others will think so . Send our men to bring the images of His Highness from the Record Crystal to that bastard . He will know what mistakes he has committed . How dare he provoke a real Royal!"

Carlhart nodded and didn't refute his comrade's word but likewise, he didn't want to change his mind .

There were only slight alterations but not all of the Mutants present could accept it .

"Carlhart, I suggest we don't proceed like this! That Highness's temper is less than pleasant, if you do, you will only get on his bad side!" Eander said .

"Which Highness ever has a good temper before? Yet didn't we here at Carlhart survive until now? Temper will be suppressed by strength and now, what we need is a place for us to live on and grow . Don't forget that the dynasty is gone," Carlhart said slowly .

His words caused changes on the other Mutants' face but none of them dared to add any more because it was a fact .

They too need to live and multiply, thus the decision to reach an accord with the high ranks of Langdon: taking over the military camp to train the most elite soldiers in Langdon in order to exchange for precious resources .

Mutants might look like humans from the outside but both were entirely different .

The so-called live and multiply wasn't something simple like sufficient food and a good environment for them to live . In order to prevent and overcome their stages of exhaustion, they needed a ton of resources and it definitely wasn't something mere manpower could solve .

"What about Herbert? Rumor has it the scholar has grasped the location of His Majesty the Emperor's Legacy . " One of the Mutant suddenly spoke .

The hall plunged into silence for a while . All the Mutants present revealed the shine of greed from their eyes, including Carlhart .

But soon enough, Carlhart kept away his own greed .

"In order to gain His Majesty Emperor's Legacy, one must have the bloodline of a Royal and it is definitely not something that we can take part in!" Carlhart then stood up and headed back after he finished .

Leaving only Eander standing on his spot with his facial expression changing non-stop .

He clearly felt the unusual looks on the high-ranked Mutants when Carlhart uttered his last words .

Although they concealed it very well, they couldn't fool Eander's eyes and senses .

He was clear what were the high ranked Mutants were plotting and after all, it was quite rare for them to encounter a lonesome Royal but…

It was also rare to encounter such a powerful one as well!

"Maybe I should do something!"

As Eander's heart was turning towards a certain thought, he turned around and left the hall .

The day quickly faded and night arrived as promised .

However, it was destined that that particular night in the Carlhart Military Camp would be different .

A group of riders with waving banners and flags donning full military outfits was split up in two lines .

They arrived in front of the hotel's door in an absolute organized pace .

A bright red carpet was laid down early on and a couple of decent looking maidens were following behind Eander as they walked into the hotel .
