Chapter 1044: Chapter 643: The Prince in the Great Hall_2 Chapter 1044: Chapter 643: The Prince in the Great Hall_2 The plump middle-aged aristocrat eagerly sought the opportunity to flatter, just like a pug, slapping an audible compliment and then adulating, âPlease rest assured, Your Royal Highness, I have already started investigating the other secrets of the Otherworldly Lord. I believe it wonât take long to have new gains.â
At this point, the middle-aged plump aristocratâs face showed a touch of cruelty as he said, âTorture and interrogation are my specialties.â
âNo wonder you are the Chief Judge of the Coldflame Kingdomâs Supreme Court.â
The Great Prince still maintained a keen interest and nodded with satisfaction, âSebel, be sure to investigate every detail of the case. If thereâs a breakthrough available, perhaps the future Minister of Kingdomâs Laws position will fall on your head, after all, the one in that position now is a detestable new aristocrat loyal to my second brother.â
âI am immensely grateful for your favor, Your Royal Highness!â
Sebelâs expression became pleased, and he quickly bowed his plump body and fell to the ground.
Just as Sebel returned to his seat, another tall, thin old aristocrat stepped forward and reported with a respectful, old voice, âYour Royal Highness, earlier today, we received news from Princess.â
âHeavy snow has continued to fall in the Northern Territory, resulting in no harvest for the crops. While the army can still endure, the ordinary civilians have started to resort to eating indiscriminately.â
After a moment of contemplation, the thin, old aristocrat asked, âAccording to the iron law set by the previous King, this is the time to transport food to the Northern Territory to relieve the people. Should we release food from the granary?â
âMarquis Sapulay, this prince thinks you are becoming a bit senile.â
An annoyed expression emerged on the Great Princeâs face as he sneered, âDo you need to ask that question? Of course, we must not open the granaries to distribute food!â
âMy violent and brainless third sister may have not stood in my way to the throne but she still poses a potential threat. Under these circumstances, how can I send food to aid her side?â
The Great Prince coldly snorted with disdain, âAs for the civilians in the Northern Territory, they are mostly uncivilized barbarians who have been separated from the Coldflame Kingdom for nearly a century. It doesnât matter how many of them die.â
âUnderstood, Your Highness. It was my oversight.â
Upon hearing this, old Marquis Sapulay bowed his head and quickly performed a bow before returning to his seat and remaining silent.
âAlright, letâs put an end to these trivial matters.â
The Great Princeâs expression was growing impatient, he waved his hand and said, âNow, letâs get to the important matters.â
âYour Royal Highness, as per your command, our forces in the Eastern Region mobilized almost simultaneously with the Second Prince earlier this morning. A full-scale war is about to begin.â
One of the burly middle-aged male aristocrats at the lower seat bowed and reported, âAnd as you instructed, the primary target is set as Cyan Town.â
âVery well, make sure to raze Cyan Town to the ground for this prince, not even a Frost Sheep should be left.â
The Great Princeâs bloodthirsty eyes were filled with murderous intent as he said indifferently, âNow that the ignorant bastards my second and fourth brothers are ready to go to war with me, I must completely erase this bothersome pebble.â
âYour Royal Highness, is a small Cyan Town really worth our full attention? If the Second Princeâs forces take advantage of the situation, wouldnât we be missing the big picture here for the small details?â
Keeping a respectful posture, the burly middle-aged nobleman wore a puzzled expression.
âUseless fool, how did one with such skills as you ever become the Vice-General of the Coldflame Royal Army Corps? If this prince had known, he wouldnât have specifically summoned you back from the Rainforest Fortress.â
Leaning against the side of the throne, the Great Prince, with his hand on his head, disdainfully looked at the respectful standing middle-aged aristocrat and continued indifferently, âEven if you only arrived at the Royal Capital yesterday, didnât you hear the news from the battlefront not too long ago?ââCrown Prince, according to intelligence, Princess 5th, with the help of a mysterious guest, Lord White, General Burt, and General Joshua, repelled the invading Saint Night Army, achieving a thrilling victory.â
A burly middle-aged nobleman quickly replied: âMoreover, it is said that a figure of a Tier 5 Fire-type Powerhouse appeared on our sideâs battlefield. Could it be Lord Wilson? After all, for laymen, itâs hard to distinguish between Fire-type magic and Lava-type magic.â
âI have considered this possibility, but itâs quite slim, as Lord Wilson seems unlikely to leave that old undying fellow.â
The Great Prince adjusted the crown on his head, shrugged, and said, âFrom this, we can infer that, although unbelievable, there may really be a Tier 5 Powerhouse beside our opponents, or someone close to that level of strength.â
After a pause, the fierce aura on the Great Princeâs face intensified: âEspecially that so-called Princessâs Guest Official, she must be completely eradicated! That is the most important task of our attack on Cyan Town.â
âCrown Prince, what is the relationship between removing the Princessâs Guest Official and attacking Cyan Town?â
The confusion on the burly middle-aged noblemanâs face grew more apparent as he blurted out.
As soon as the middle-aged nobleman finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and exclaimed: âCould it be that the Princessâs Guest Official is the newly appointed Lord of Cyan City?!â
âIdiot, youâre just figuring that out now?â
The Great Prince rubbed his temples helplessly and continued to look down at him: âOtherwise, do you think my stupid and lucky 5th sister, along with two bare commanders, could help Lord White withstand the Saint Night Army? Itâs laughable!â
âThis shows that the new Lord of Cyan City is even more cunning than we imagined, just like a slippery Magic Pearl Monster.â
Killing intent flashed in the Great Princeâs eyes as he said ominously, âMoreover, there have been rumors of a Tier 5 Powerhouse appearing in Cyan Town. If we let this situation develop, it will inevitably become a huge threat to us. Thatâs why I ordered the attack on Cyan Town first, to strangle her and Ariel Watson in the cradle.â
âI see, how wise of Your Highness!â
Upon hearing this, the tall and burly nobleman bowed respectfully, full of admiration: âYour humble servant is immensely impressed!â
After speaking, the burly middle-aged nobleman couldnât help but worry: âHowever, although the opponent is insignificant, there may indeed be a Tier 5 Powerhouse by their sideâŠâ
âDonât worry, although the old man in black is not here, I have already sent that fellow.â
A sinister smile appeared on the Great Princeâs face, and he sneered: âAs long as that guy is there, both the Lord of Cyan City and my second brotherâs shrimp soldiers and crab generals will all be slaughtered.â
As he spoke, the Great Princeâs smile deepened, and he continued slowly: âI canât wait to hear the news that Cyan Town has been razed to the ground.â
âHehehe, Your Highness is truly mighty!â
Fat Sebel quickly flattered and continued ominously, âBefore that person set off, I deliberately explained to him the importance of territories to Otherworldly Lords. If the Lord of Cyan City is indeed an Otherworldly Lord, then their territory will also inevitably be slaughtered, trampled into flat ground by Your Highnessâs army!â
âYour ruthlessness is becoming increasingly pleasing to me.â
Looking at Sebelâs round body, the Great Prince laughed heartily again.
For a time, the arrogant and murderous laughter echoed through the magnificent hall, not stopping for a long time.
Under the reflection of the brilliant crystal tassel chandelier, a series of cold, sinister faces filled with greasiness and wickedness revealed bone-chilling smiles.
