065. A Sword On Your Neck
At Asher’s outburst, Elias was completely thrown off because he hadn’t expected that kind of ranting from him. The general was known for keeping his cool and using cold cutting words instead of raising his voice. But this was pure fury.For a moment, he stood there stunned with his mind racing. What just triggered that? he thought. What did I say that crossed the line?Meanwhile, the room went completely silent. The only thing anyone could feel was the heavy, suffocating tension. Asher’s eyes burned like fire and his whole body was tight, like he was one second away from snapping. Even the ruler, who hardly reacted to anyone’s outbursts, shifted in his seat and had his expression darkened.Janine, who had been hoping Asher would defend her, suddenly felt her chest tighten. Was this still about her… or had something deeper just cracked open?Juliet, standing nearby, stiffened as she could sense danger in the air.Then Asher’s voice came, low and sharp, cutting through the silence like
064. How Dare You!
The second Asher casually dropped the words “I meant… Alesha here deserves death,” the room felt like it stopped breathing.Alesha gasped and fear flashed across her face before she could even stop it. While Elias’s eyes widened like they were about to pop out of his skull. His mind raced. What the hell is Asher doing? Why would he say that? Where is this coming from?Meanwhile, Asher gave him a smug, cocky look, like Yeah, I said it. So what? What are you gonna do about it?Ambrose, who was sitting quietly on his side, frowned and turned toward them. What’s going on? Why is Asher flipping the whole thing now? He thought.The ruler, however, didn’t move much. He just sat back and watched it all with curious eyes.Janine, who had been frozen like a statue, felt the tension shift just a little. Though the pressure wasn’t completely off her, some of it had suddenly landed on Alesha’s shoulders.Then, trying to break the thick, awkward silence that had swallowed the hall, Elias let out a
063. Two Sisters Over The General
Elias stood in the center of the court feeling himself. He was loving every second of the attention, the gasps from the crowd, the silence from the ruler, and the way Janine was practically shaking in her shoes, it all felt like the whole room was his stage.A smug grin stretched across his face as he raised a hand. “Open the doors!” he ordered.The guards didn’t hesitate. Immediately, the big doors creaked open… and standing right there in the hallway, was Alesha.She wore the famous Angel Wing Gown. She looked like a queen walking into her court, with a cocky grin on her face like she owned the whole room. She took one bold step inside, then stopped like she was sizing up a room full of peasants.Then, two more figures appeared behind her. Julian and Juliet.They walked side by side, dressed in matching outfits, with their hands interwoven, and both of them wore smug looks.At their sight, Morgana’s jaw tightened. “What the hell is this?” she hissed under her breath.Meanwhile, Ashe
062. Enjoy While It Lasts
The moment Elias said the word treason, the air in the room changed. It was like someone had sucked all the warmth out of the place. The court had seen drama before, but to call out treason over a performance was either insane… or a very bold move.Meanwhile, Janine’s heart dropped. She had already expected to be embarrassed tonight, maybe even publicly insulted. But treason? That was the kind of crime that got one dragged out of the palace, executed, and left as a warning for everyone to see.Her mind was a mess. What if they actually accuse me? What if Asher can’t save me? What if… she thought.Not far off, Morgana was fuming. Her jaw was tight and one hand was already clenched around her sword hilt. If looks could kill, Elias would’ve dropped dead right there.Amidst all this, Asher didn’t move. Not a blink. Not a flinch.While everyone else reacted like nervous birds, he stood perfectly still with his eyes locked on Elias like a predator sizing up its prey. He didn’t give them th
061. Who Gets Taken Out?
Asher stopped just inches from Elias, his voice low, calm, but sharp as a knife. “How dare you talk like that, trying to shame my guest when you’re nobody.”As soon as those words left Asher’s lips, Elias’s eyes quickly flicked to Ambrose, the one person he still trusted in the room. Ambrose barely moved, just a tiny shake of his head, which was almost invisible. But to Elias, it said everything, “Back off. Change your game. Not now.”Elias got the message loud and clear, he was out of his depth and needed to rethink his move. Asher wasn’t like the usual prey they preyed on. After a tense moment, Elias let out a quiet, forced chuckle to break the awkward silence. He raised his hands a little, like he was surrendering, and spoke carefully as he tried to sound respectful, even though it didn’t sit well with him.“Ah… that’s not what I meant, General Asher.”In truth, Elias had walked into the court completely unaware of what was already happening. The mood was nothing like he expected.
060. Teach Elias A Lesson
Asher’s words had barely left his lips when Morgana stepped forward, her voice slicing through the silence.“And what fool thinks they can talk trash about the Supreme General?” she snapped, sharp and unwavering. “Who dares to pollute the court with such poison?”The crowd stirred. Gasps echoed—some in shock, others intrigued by the sudden confrontation as Morgana’s glare locked on Elias.Elias didn’t flinch. His brow arched with cool disdain, a mocking smirk tugging at his lips as if to say, And who are you supposed to be? But his contempt wasn’t for Morgana. It was aimed at Asher.Asher’s gaze flicked—briefly, instinctively—toward Ambrose.There it was: a thin smile playing at the corner of Ambrose’s mouth. Subtle. Satisfied.So, the snake slithers into view, Asher thought, the corners of his eyes narrowing. He didn’t speak, didn’t move, but something shifted inside him—quiet, cold, and focused.The ruler’s voice suddenly rang out, sharp and thunderous. “What in hell’s name are you
