Volume 7 Chapter 83: I Will Deal With It
Late at night, Violet slept serenely and at peace in her bed. As she did, she didn’t notice the shadow of death surrounding her. Figures surrounded her from all sides. Some maids waited by the door. Seeing the shadows walking toward them,
“No one is here, right?” One shadow questioned.
“Mmhmm.” The maids nodded as they moved away, letting them in. These maids were placed there to make an opening.
“Let’s do this.”
The assassins all stared. Without any ounce of hesitation, they slammed their knives into the bed!
It was done...or so they thought.
The assassins’ expressions froze as they stared down at the body. One questioned, “Why isn’t there any blood?!” No ounce of blood came from the wound. Instead, it was heavy. When they pierced the body, the blades were stuck in.
“Wow, you guys are gutsy to pull off an assassination in a Grand Duke’s home.” The assassin’s heads jolted by the playful voice. Startled, they quickly turned to see a person sitting at a table! He sat there so calmly and comfortably as he sipped his tea.
“Attack!” All of them charged at Keith. They must kill anyone who saw! That moment of decisiveness made them falter. They hadn’t realized there were others! Two figures slammed the assassins, bursting through the wall.
“Haha, your plan worked like a charm, youngster!” A haughty laugh came from Sterling. Leland shook his head, “Sterling, we still need to focus. These guys aren’t dead.” They took some damage, but it was not enough to defeat them.
“Did you guys really think you can do this?” Keith scoffed. But as he was about to continue,
“What is going on?!” Rodrick came from the side. He wasn’t alone; Dolus and the knights were with them too. That was when his expression darkened,
“Sterling, Leland! How dare you! To collide with that brat to assassinate my sister! Have the two of you fallen so low?!”
“You really going to throw this on us?” Keith raised one brow.
“Do you think you can say all of that, Rodrick?” A cold voice cut through the tension. Rodrick turned his head to see Violet with Krystal and Winston. The two women had dark expressions.
“Sister?!” Rodrick froze.
“Why do you sound so surprised? Were you expecting me dead?”
“No! You’re alive! Those assassins didn’t kill you!”
“Pff, stop acting like you’re the hero.”
“What do you mean?!”
“Can you really say all of this when you were the one who caused this?” Keith then raised a stone. And the moment he did, a video started to play. It was none other than Rodrick ordering the knights to take out Violet. His words were cold, and his eyes were maniacal.
There was a moment of silence before,
“....Hahaha!” The expression Rodrick had before was nowhere to be found, and a crazed one soon replaced it. “Fine! I was the one who did this! I was also the one who framed Edmund!”
“Why?! How could you have fallen so low?!” Even hearing it was unbelievable. Violet’s husband and Rodrick were brothers. How could he backstab him like so?
“You’re really asking me why? Do you know how it feels to be second fiddle to a man like that?! I’ve done the same thing as him. Yet, Father chose him to be head! I should have been Grand Duke!”
“And that’s exactly why the previous head didn’t choose you.” Keith retorted.
“Leave everything to me.” Keith didn’t say anymore as he moved forward. That only caused Dolus to chuckle, “Do you think you can beat me by yourself? You’re just foolish.”
“Keep talking.” Keith didn’t hold his sword as he only crunched his knuckles. Dolus raised his sword as he dashed forward! He would blow the brat away in one move!
However,
BAMMMM!
What happened next caused the entire duchy to freeze!
Keith dodged the blade, and then his fist came right into the guy’s face! It was such a clean blow that the man’s head coked back and slammed into the ground, caving it in!
“...” He’s not dead, right?
“That takes care of that.” Keith shook his head as he turned to the rest, “I would normally knock you guys out. However, not today. You guys really pissed me off.” A wooden sword appeared in his hand.
“Wai-“It was too late to say anything. Keith appeared before the person and sent him flying into the air! No hesitation as he sliced them with the sword!
No one could fathom the onslaught that was about to occur.
“Woo.” Sterling snickered, “The young miss’s boyfriend is so strong.”
“He’s!” Why are you saying something like that?!
“Indeed. Was he holding back against me when we fought?” Leland was genuinely surprised Keith was this strong.
“And we’re done.” Keith took a deep sigh. Before him were rows of bodies on the ground. They were all beaten black and blue.
Rodrick, who regained some consciousness, was stunned beyond belief. His knights were taken down in such a quick fashion.
“Rodrick, enough of this.” A cold voice cut in. Everyone turned their head to see two people before them.
“Father! Grandfather!”
“Dear!”
“Grandpa Cedric?!” There was one person Keith definitely knew! It was none other than Cedric!
“It seems we’re late to the party,” Cedric chuckled.
