“You can not get away with this! You will pay a high price if you harm in any way!” The King suddenly shouted, causing to tilt my head.
“Call out the people you have as backing. Can they even enter this kingdom? I am sorry to say that you are sealed off. I have made sure that you and your allies have been closed off from the world. From this mont on, you are at my rcy.” Killing intent oozed out of my body. “Iena!”
“Yes, Master!” Iena appeared in front of in a puff of smoke.
“Can you summon demons under your command to seek out every noble in this kingdom?” I asked.
“This is simple, Master,” Iena replied as she waved her hand, thousands of summoning circles ford, and a legion of skeletons suddenly appeared. Iena looked at them and waved her hand: “Go! Seek out and find every noble for this kingdom and bring them before my Master!”
All the skeletons suddenly pounded their chest plates and disappeared in a puff of smoke. I pursed my lips when I realized just how useful this summoning thing is. “I should practice this magic more.”
“Master, I can help you with your summoning magic so you can pick and choose what you wish to summon.” Iena’s eyes as she looked at were filled with a bit of expectation. I guess I have ignored her a bit since things had happened. “Then I will be in your care when things are all settled.”
“Yes, Master!” Iena smiled brightly. Her pointy tail was wagging back and forth. I know it is rude to say, but right now, she reminded of a dog. “Master, what should I do with this man?”
“Oh right…. Iena, the Pri Minister, should be in the dungeon. I want you to bring him before .” I sent my detection magic back into the dungeon. “Hmmm… Wait, Iena….”
“Master?” Iena, who was about to leave, stopped and looked at in confusion.
“It seems the Pri Minister’s backer was here..” I bit my finger. The man I wanted to kill most escaped. He is no longer in the dungeon. I sent my detection magic out over the entire kingdom, but no matter where I checked, I could not find any trace of him. He was nowhere within the bounds of this kingdom or the three vassal states. It was like he had vanished from the face of the planet.
“Iena, go to the dungeon and check for any traces of magic that might be found. Soone helped that bastard escape and even eluded my detection!” I was not happy. I guess when things are going too smoothly, they will soon ss up. But who could be the Pri Minister’s backer?
“Right away, Master!” Iena disappeared and went to the dungeon as I asked. I was not liking this. From what I can tell, way before the dungeons had appeared, the Pri Minister seed to be planning sothing. But who was the one who was behind him that gave him the ability to pull this all off?
I looked at the Norian king, who was staring daggers at , and leaned over and stared at him. “Speak! Who is the Pri Minister’s backer?”
This just did not match up. Why would the Norian king be willing to team up with a Pri Minister? Why would he suddenly attack a kingdom he has no ability to attack? Why was the response during the first Norain invasion so slow, yet this ti, even without my help, the forces would have been sent out quickly? So why? Why would the Pri Minister be able to pull all of this off?
My eyes fell onto the Norian king who was staring at , not answering my question even though I just used dragon speak on him. “I see… Then let’s do things another way.” I opened my mouth, but no sound ca out. Not a sound a person could hear normally. That was because I just gave the sa order but used my soul to cast dragon speak.
The Norain king’s eyes dulled as a white apparition appeared from his body, looking up at : “I do not know who the man is…. I only know he was very strong. He had black hair and purple eyes. He was very powerful. Beyond anything, I have ever seen before. Maybe even more powerful than you.”
“Did he have any markings on his skin?” I asked in dragon speak once more while using my soul.
“He had a burn mark over his right eye.” The Norian king replied.
“Tell , what do you know about him?” A burn mark over his right eye ant he was not Azengrade, which allowed to feel a bit at ease.
“I do not know much except that he seems to have a grudge against the Gravos Kingdom. He and the Pri Minister of Gravos seed quite close. They might have been family.” The Norain king answered.
“Anything else?” I asked.
“No….” A simple word was all he answered.
I took a deep breath as I waved my hand, canceling dragon speak, and looked over at the bloody bag next to . I picked it up and sent it flying towards the king. The bag crashed to the floor, and the heads rolled out towards the Norian king. “Do you recognize these n?”
The Norian King looked at the heads with a pale face. But he showed no real reaction, which told nothing. “Tell now do you know these n?” I once more use dragon speak with my soul.
“They were part of a special squad capable of infiltrating any kingdom. They had no na since they were all trained from a young age.” I raised an eyebrow. It was true that these n easily infiltrated the Gravos Kingdom. Most of my questions for this king were now answered, so all that was left was to clean up and wait for Iena’s investigation before moving to the next kingdom.
