Chapter 150 – The Taste of Justice
Jerry walked out of his room, and the moment he entered his living room, he found Charles seated with food arranged on a table in front of him. Charles was having a spread of thick barley porridge, salted herring, a loaf of dark rye bread, a wedge of hard cheese, and a mug of spiced ale.Jerry sat opposite him. “My staff seems to work for you now.”Charles replied after setting down the cup in his hand, “It was your breakfast. Your workers knew you were having a bath and they set the table. I only thought to help myself.”“I do not know if I have an appetite. I just want to kill the Rebel Master.”“To use a sword, a soldier needs energy. Every man in the army knows that, right?” Charles teased. He spoke like an elderly man would to a child.Jerry picked up a piece of food from the table and flung it at Charles, who dodged by shifting to a corner. Charles laughed. “Eat, and let us go and meet the Rebel Master you are dying to see.”***Holga was lying on a straw mat when she felt a spl
Chapter 151 – The Burden of the Crown
Giving them all their powers would not be hard. Besides, it would make him feel lighter. Since the day he had begun carrying the extra weight of their magic, he felt tired easily.He heard a voice: “If you give them the power, make sure you teach them first not to look down on others who are not Eagles and treat them badly. The last Eagle Clan had these issues. It made some clans discontented with them.” It was the Old Eagle.Darian ran a hand through his hair. He thought he would drop the weight of this power soon, but he would have to wait. He whispered, “I am trying to rehabilitate the slaves and get their thinking structure right. I know that being in bondage for years has a way of inhibiting brightness and creativity. But I never thought Eagles would have issues, too.”The Old Eagle replied, “Should we go back down memory lane and discuss how many years it took for you to get to this point?”“Nope,” Darian shot back. “I want peace and happiness this morning.”The Old Eagle respon
Chapter 152 – The Queen of Masac
Noel chuckled slightly. “Tell me the woman you want. I can help you get her. I doubt anyone would dare to refuse you.”Darian swallowed the lump in his throat and cleared his voice. “You are talking nonsense.”“Darian, there are a lot of people here. Lots of men… but your eyes keep resting on the females. You have looked from the former slaves to Helena’s subjects. Then your eyes rested on the subjects of Charles. Darian, you have finally felt attraction to women—something I have been trying to make you understand for a long time now.”Darian ran a hand through his hair. “I do not know what is wrong with me. Maybe I am just tired.”“Lie some more,” Noel teased.Darian rose to his feet. “I do not think I am enjoying this party anymore. I should leave.”Noel pulled Darian’s hand and tried to make him sit. Darian did not budge. Noel rose to his feet and tapped Darian’s shoulder. “There is more eye candy.” He tried not to raise his voice. He knew the people around were told to act around
Chapter 153 – The Seal of the Golden Eagle
The Princess and the Queen turned to each other; then, they burst out in laughter. Noel waited for them to finish.“You should have informed us that you are a jester,” the Queen mocked.The Princess added, “There are no Eagles in this world. They used to live a thousand years ago, but they were eradicated by the Ice Clan.”The Queen calmed herself and frowned. “We have no time for false talk. Stand up and be on your way.”Noel threw out a challenge: “Not just any Eagle. The Golden Eagle has returned.”“Do you not hear my mother? Or do you want your head to roll on a platter?” The Princess rose to her feet, placing her hands on her hips.Noel reached into his pocket quickly and pulled out the scroll. The guards, sensing the displeasure of the Queen and Princess, moved to drag Noel away since he refused to move on his own two feet.Noel raised the scroll and raised his voice. “If you were to see the seal of the Eagle Lord, would you believe me?”The Queen raised her right hand; her guar
Chapter 154 – The Predator's Hospitality
Noel exhaled slowly. “Is it always like that?” he asked.“It is always like that,” Destiny replied. “I am just saying this because I want to warn you. Just in case you have it in mind to ask the Queen and Princess for help. They will be planning to marry you, or whoever sent you.”Noel sighed and sat on a chair. He pointed to another opposite him so that Destiny could sit. Destiny got the signal, but he did not move. He began to shake.“Can you have a seat?” There was a frustrated tone in Noel’s voice. Destiny finally sat.“Now, tell me how the Queen marries men and treats them,” Noel asked.Destiny started, “The Kingdom of Masac is rich in gems and diamonds. I guess you noticed that by looking at the thrones.”Noel remembered the thrones. They had resembled the artwork of a two-year-old who had a super-rich mother and did not know what to do with so much provision.Destiny continued, “When other kingdoms fell into financial ruin, or they needed arms for battle, they came to the Kingd
Chapter 155 – The Matriarch's Trap
Noel gave a dry chuckle. “I wonder if this is how lawless servants behave in this kingdom. I will do well to tell the Queen what I saw and tell the master who sent me. After all, I represent someone.”Color immediately drained from the chef’s face. He had not known that Noel had a master and had not come on his own. The Kingdom of Masac liked to masquerade as kind until they got the real fish on their bait. “Well, I did not know,” the chef said.Noel placed one leg vertically on top of the other. “Do you like the way I hit you? Now, if you do not leave, I will do even worse. I will punch you until your bloated belly leaks blood.”The chef shivered at the mention of that sentence.“Now, scram!” Noel yelled.The chef shivered visibly and turned to run out of the door. He did not just walk; he half-ran. The others behind him did the same.Destiny’s eyes flickered with light. He had not seen such a bold move in years. When the servants and the chef left the room and shut the door, Destiny
Chapter 156 – The Ambush of the West
Noel wanted to burst out laughing. He would keep the thoughts in his heart. “I would love a picture of the beautiful Princess. That way, the Golden Eagle can see her face and fall in love immediately.”Queen Alexandria clapped both hands. “Excellent. It would be a delight for the last Golden Eagle to marry into the family. He would be honored.”Noel nodded his head again even as he played along.“We have already made portraits, and they will bring them to you at once,” Fiona said. “Also, make sure that the Golden Eagle sends portraits to me. I will not want one of my consorts to be ugly.”Noel responded, “Of course, my dear Princess. I will make sure as soon as I leave now with your portraits. The Golden Eagle is quite handsome. I am sure once you see him, you will believe he is worthy of your harem.”Fiona nodded even as her eyes glowed brightly.A servant came with another tray carrying the portrait of the Princess. Noel took it and bowed with a flourish. “I will take my leave now,
Chapter 157 – The Nostalgia Trap
Darian received news from one of Noel’s old friends in the West Borderlands who was loyal to their cause. The contact told Darian that after Her Holiness failed to find Darian and Noel, she had considered Master Blade, Jean, and Adam Pearl useless. Subsequently, she had thrown them into prison and appointed Deji Fountain—the man who had reported Darian’s existence to her—as the new ruler of the West Borderlands.By evening, when Charles and Darian were alone in their room (they had secured a room in a local inn), they discussed the situation.Charles asked, “Any ideas?”Darian replied, “Deji Fountain cannot see me. He knows my face only too well.”“You have to end him then,” Charles said.Darian considered it. “That is the only option. I also have to burst Master Blade and the Pearl family out of jail.”Charles smiled. “We can do that. But the hard part will be to depose the present ruler and kill him. He must be surrounded by hundreds of guards. Besides, when they discover there is a
Chapter 158 – The Deception of the West
Noel killed the guards standing in front of Deji Fountain’s room and entered. Beneath the covers of the bed, there was the form of a body. Noel gave the order with a swipe of his hands, and the archers shot at the form multiple times. The arrows struck so hard that Noel saw feathers pop up.There was no way feathers could pop out of a body unless... Noel walked toward the bed and pulled back the covers. It was a pile of pillows. Charles came in through the door. “Noel, the place is empty of Deji Fountain’s family members and associates.”Noel clicked his teeth and placed a hand on his hip in frustration. “They knew we were coming. We have to find Darian at once. He is the main target.”They rushed out of the place, but when they got outside the gates, they met a mob. Not just a mob, but an army.“They damn well knew we were coming,” Charles spat.The arrows from the opposing side came first, and Noel and Charles had to block them with their swords.The clash of steel rang out as they
Chapter 159 – The Strategist’s Fall
The gates opened, and Darian and his men stepped out with the Pearl family tied by their hands. Darian was among them. He had used a handkerchief to cover from his nose down. He knew that he had dyed his hair, but he did not want to take any chances—at least not yet. He did not want Deji Fountain to recognize him, not even slightly.Darian and his men dragged the bound Pearl family and Master Blade out. Darian stood directly behind Master Blade. Deji Fountain walked closer as he inspected the Pearl family and the men who had come out with them. He almost laughed. “Is it not a pity, Blade, that it is only foolish and lily-livered people who come to try to get you out? I just gave them a threat and a way out, and they have come out tying you up like an animal about to be killed. This is not the first time it has happened. But unlike other times, I will not just punish you or make your life a living hell. I will kill you all today.” He stopped in front of Master Blade.“Tell me, Blade, h
