In the darkness.
Two people are conversing.
"How is the situation?" one person asked.
"He just killed another one, anyway, any disobedient subordinate, he kills them," the other replied.
"Only knows how to kill? That’s not good, no one will loyally serve," the first person mocked.
"The problem is, he doesn’t care about loyalty—I feel he just wants to get rid of those people—he purely wants to kill,"
"A madman? That’s not too scary."
"But he’s got the allegiance of that tallic ship."
"That ship is troubleso."
"...Obey him for now, look for a chance later."
"Exactly, everyone has flaws, it’s only a matter of ti before we find his weakness."
"Right."
The two reached an agreent.
At this mont, soone reported softly:
"The Duke has arrived."
The two exchanged a glance.
"Co, let’s greet our lord."
"Yes, let’s go together!"
They pushed open the door, walked out of the hideout, and up the long stairs until they reached the ground, then stopped at the entrance of the Duke Mansion.
A few minutes later.
The Duke Mansion’s door opened.
A cold beauty dressed in a uniform led the way in front.
A normal-looking young man followed behind her.
Except for being handso, there was nothing outstanding.
—This was the Duke.
Can he really be a Duke looking like this?
"Duke, these two, one is your butler, the other is your ace fighter."
"If you have any questions, you can ask them."
Brenna spoke respectfully.
"Oh? I’m Baxter—now you know , by the way, what are your nas?" the young man asked.
The two hurriedly bowed and reported their nas.
Then they heard that sentence:
"Sigh, kill them."
The young man said with a disheartened tone.
Kill them?
Wait—
Is he talking about us?
Why? It’s our first eting, we’re your subordinates, haven’t even spoken to you, and you want us dead just like this?
One didn’t have ti to react.
The other didn’t have ti to use the contract to summon the Will of Destruction.
Both vanished on the spot simultaneously.
In the depths of the sky.
The ship released waves again, seemingly enjoying the enhancent of Attributes.
People.
Were already killed.
Thump!
Brenna’s legs weakened, she knelt down.
—If the previous killings had reasons, she couldn’t see any reason for these two being killed.
Didn’t even say a single word, just grabbed by the Ship of Destruction and killed!
She took a deep breath, respectfully bowed, and spoke:
"Duke, if you want to kill , please tell directly, I’d rather not die without knowing why."
Shen Ye smiled and waved:
"Brenna, I won’t kill you."
"Why—is it because I’m a woman?" Brenna asked, unable to hold back.
"Not at all."
Shen Ye squatted down, signaling her to look at him: "Am I handso?"
"Handso," Brenna said objectively.
"Exactly, I’m so handso, and without malice, why do they want to kill ?"
Shen Ye sighed.
As he spoke, he pointed to several servants standing around the room.
"Kill this one."
"Kill that one too."
"And these two here, kill them all."
Along with his orders, the Ship of Destruction in the sky continuously released teleportation power, capturing people into its cabin directly.
Brenna was even more bewildered.
It was completely certain—
The Duke never t these servants.
But he kills them upon arrival.
Why?
How does he know they want to kill him?
Mind reading?
Or sothing else?
Brenna calmly pondered.
Shen Ye finished surveying around, the golden light in his eyes gradually faded.
—Quicksand Pupil Technique.
He can see the past and future of targets.
Those two, in the future, will definitely make a move against him.
In every possible future, they’ll test him and want to kill him.
Too persistent.
He’s never been a bloodthirsty person, just forced with no choice.
—Can only eliminate them ahead of ti.
"Brenna, I killed these people, according to the rules, everything of theirs belongs to , right?"
"Yes, Duke."
"You can call Baxter."
"Lord, your na is the sa as the previous Duke’s?"
"Oh, he’s my brother—I have a foolish brother."
"Foolish..."
"It’s just a line, anyway, Brenna, what’s your salary?"
"I need to be paid 3000 Destruction Points for every 26 days."
"I’ll raise your salary, starting today, your salary is doubled," Shen Ye said.
"Really? Thank you, Duke!"
Brenna’s face flushed with a hint of color.
—The Duke raising her salary proved he had no intention of killing her.
And wanted to utilize her more.
Finally felt a bit of security.
Shen Ye observed Brenna’s expression change, and gradually relaxed.
Just using the Pupil Technique to predict her fate, he found her future very smooth, without much turmoil.
—This scribe is very conscientious.
Is there such a person among the Destruction Servants?
"Brenna, why did you beco a Destruction Believer?" Shen Ye curiously asked.
"At that ti, our world was undergoing a dynasty change, I was a princess of the old dynasty, my country was destroyed."
"The new Emperor personally led people to hunt down—he really wanted to catch , and was about to succeed."
"Then what happened?" Shen Ye asked.
"The world was destroyed," Brenna replied.
Shen Ye pondered: "Destruction brought life to you, and you sincerely appreciate all of this..."
"Yes, the Will of Destruction sensed my sincerity and accepted as its servant," Brenna said.
"Interesting," Shen Ye said.
"Duke, there are more important matters, please co with imdiately," Brenna said.
