Chapter 1496 1336: Unexpected Turn 3
''We're the Investigation Guards of the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament."
This time, the man lifted his chin arrogantly.
"We have an official document from the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament. Now, we suspect that you're related to a serious terror attack. I request that you lay down your weapons and follow us. If not, we won't hesitate to kill!
"Official my ass! What rights do you think you have… You bunch of bastards…"
Johnson's Cavalrymen chided while raising their swords. The man twitched his brows and gestured.
The soldiers from the Kingsley's Kingdom lifted their swords and pointed straight at Johnson's men. At the same time, a dozen Mages in white robes flew ahead from the back, aiming their staffs forward. Johnson and his men trembled in fear.
"We, in the name of the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament, once again ask that you lay down your weapons and surrender immediately. If not, we will…"
"What will you do?"
An indifferent voice sounded from the back. Johnson revealed a glad smile and turned around quickly. He spotted a tall, thin, dark figure strolling toward them.
"Sir Overlord!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlex nodded to him. He narrowed his eyes and gazed at the crowd with an apathetic expression. The Black Prince had arrived in the place, he should play his role to perfection, Alex felt like since the beginning of this game he was roleplaying, well in any case it is fun.
"I was wondering why my subordinates didn't join us back in time. Ah so...They're being pestered by a bunch of crazy wild dogs…"
"How dare you!"
The man in heavy armor sulked and drew his sword to point at Alex.
"In the name of the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament, I ask that you take back your words. If not, you'll suffer the consequences!"
Alex's expression remains unchanged. He lazily lifted his chin and gazed at the man as though none of his words had gotten into his head.
"Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament? So the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament is only capable of robbing and behaving like bandits? You stopped my subordinates without reason and even tried to hold them captive? How daring of you… But come to think of it, it isn't strange that the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament is an expert in this aspect…"
"Shut up! You arrogant man!"
The man let out a furious snarl. He couldn't take it any longer.
"I won't allow you to humiliate the honor of our Parliament. If you…"
At this moment, an overwhelming icy-cold sword aura had as though risen from the snowy field. It spread wildly and enveloped everything in its path. The heavily-armored man trembled and no words could come out of his mouth. The old Mage beside him also realized the incoming danger.
"Just a group of idiots from the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament isn't enough for me to care."
Alex held his sword hilt by his waist and slowly approached the soldiers with his unprecedented, pressurizing aura.
"This is the territory of the Renner Kingdom. I don't care why the Kingsley's Kingdom Parliament sent you here. You won't have your way to detain my men. Now, I, in the identity of Grandell's overlord, order that you lay down your weapons and get lost. If not…"
Alex looked at the heavily-armored man in disdain.
"Suffer the consequences."
"You…!"
The heavily armored man twisted in his wrath. Alex's immense pressure aura had held the man in his place and he couldn't budge at all. At this moment, he felt as though razor-sharp blades were pushing against him from head to toe and as soon as he spoke a word, the invisible blades would penetrate his body instantly.
"You've gone too far."
Suddenly, a deep voice sounded. Alex's aura stagnated slightly and was pushed back as though it had struck an invisible shield. However, he didn't concede defeat. He let out a snort and kept his smile, staring forward with stern eyes. The immense aura emanating from him strengthened and blasted to the surroundings.
"What?"
It was apparent that the other party was taken aback and his imposing aura to push back Alex's aura had stagnated. Then, Alex sensed a strong, choking pressure as though a gigantic boulder had rolled over the mountain and crashed on him. He narrowed his eyes and tapped his sword hilt with his right index finger.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"—!"
Without any warning, the snowfield before Alex crumbled as though the ground couldn't withstand the two invisible and overwhelming pressure, forming a pitch-black deep crevice while snow and crushed rocks fluttered in midair. Shortly after, the quakes stopped.
At this moment, the deep voice sounded once again.
"Hoh? When was there a young man this powerful in the Renner Kingdom?"
One of the men emerged from the crowd.
Alex twitched his brows as soon as he saw him. He could feel pressure, this man before him was not simple.
He could not help but knit his brows and scanned the man before him. He was a middle-aged man about the age of 50, broad-shouldered and tall. It could be seen from his neatly back-combed gray hair and determined face as tough as granite that he would not be easily fazed. He wore a luxurious, neat military uniform and held an ordinary-looking black sword. He gazed silently at Alex while emanating a falcon-like aura.
Adan Sheple, the Kingsley's Kingdom Holy Blade Army Commander.
Alex puckered his brows. However, he returned to his usual expression shortly after after going through the information about this man.
In every race, nation, and group, there will always be good guys and bad guys. If the degenerates of the Kinsley's Kingdom were the parliament members, this man here could be considered a representative of the good guys.
Of course, judging from a political and religious standpoint, he, Alex, and the Renner Kingdom were entirely different. He loved his country, defended it, and agreed with the Parliament's way of fighting for freedom and authority instead of relying on the empire. However, he also objected to the Parliament's Human supremacy policy and disliked watching the Light Parliament intervene in other nation's affairs. It was especially so during the conflict with the Renner Kingdom. Adan objected to their actions because he believed that the Kingsley's Kingdom should focus its priorities on managing domestic affairs and not intervening in the internal affairs of other nations in the name of promoting freedom and justice. Of course, this wasn't because he respected the standpoints of other nations. Instead, he believed that the conditions of the internal department of the Kingsley's Kingdom weren't stabilized yet for them to play such a game.
"I didn't expect to see Sir Adan Sheple in person. How surprising."
"You know who I am?"
The man opened his eyes wide in surprise. However, Alex didn't answer directly. He nodded slightly and said with a poker face.
