Chapter 32: The Despicable Vivian!
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
The rumor that Vivian was ambushed and seriously injured after leaving the Imperial Capital was obviously not made up.
“I think you all should know. More than 40 years ago, the God’s Continent sent seven oracles to help us quell the war between the races, but one oracle stayed in this land,” Vivian said calmly.
“Of course, I know,” Anthony said. “I was lucky enough to meet that Oracle once. She was very charming and no one could compare to her. I think those who have seen her on this land will never forget her face.”
Vivian said calmly, “Then, do you know that this oracle left behind the royal bloodline more than ten years ago?”
Anthony’s expression changed drastically, and the faces of the older generation around him also changed.
“You are talking about the First Prince’s…” Anthony’s breathing quickened.
This was a secret, and only a small number of people were really numerous. More than ten years ago, the oracle had had some dealings with the First Prince of the human empire.
At that time, the human empire could be said to have had treacherous ministers in the internal turmoil and foreign invasion of the enemy kingdom. The war with the orc tribe in the west had not yet subsided, and there was news from the Imperial Capital that the late Emperor was dying.
At that time, the First Prince, who was the heir of the Empire, was leading an army to fight against the orcs in the west. When he heard the news, he rushed to the Imperial Capital.
However, no one had expected that a coup would happen without a sound.
When the First Prince returned to the Imperial Capital, he was immediately detained. More than ten days later, news came from the Imperial Capital that the First Prince had died in the imperial palace due to overwork.
The person who wore the crown was the First Prince’s uncle, the former emperor’s brother.
Vivian said expressionlessly, “My teacher, Bai Shan, as the First Prince’s confidant, was not only driven out of the Imperial City, but his legs were also cut off. Nearly thirteen families in the Imperial City were purged, and more than twenty city-states were implicated. Sir Anthony, you were also a great mage of the imperial family back then. I think you still remember it.”
Anthony stared at her. Back then, he was also the First Prince’s aide. After the purge, he lost his identity as a royal mage. If it were not for his high position in the Mage Association… He would probably end up like her teacher.
“The so-called Divine Treasure you speak of, are you referring to the First Prince’s son?” he asked solemnly.
Vivian said expressionlessly, “There is no Divine Treasure at all. Before the Oracle died, I had already received the news that she left behind the bloodline of the First Prince. For more than ten years, I have been searching everywhere. Finally, today, I found this place.”
Vivian looked back at him and said, “More than ten years have passed. If that child was still alive, he would have been twelve or thirteen years old by now. If we found him, what would you do?”
Anthony’s eyes twinkled, and the people of Ethereal City looked at him with pale faces.
The meaning in Vivian’s words was very obvious. If their Dean agreed, it would mean a rebellion.
“What is the Second Princess’ intention?” Anthony asked in a deep voice, “Although she is the daughter of the late emperor, everyone knows that she grew up with her uncle. She was the only one in the immediate royal family who was not implicated.”
“Her Royal Highness, the Second Princess, loves her elder brother very much. All these years, we have endured humiliation in order to welcome back the bloodline of the First Prince, so that his son can continue the orthodoxy of the royal family,” Vivian said.
Anthony sneered. “I think you want to rebel. The Prince is just a title you have found. Once you succeed, even if the prince can ascend to the throne, he is just a puppet in your hands!”
Vivian said lightly, “So what? Anthony, you should be very clear about the situation of the Empire now. In the past ten years, the Empire has long been in turmoil. The authority of the Emperor has long existed in name, but in fact, it has already disappeared. Many city-states are peering at the position of the Imperial Capital. Let me tell you, in less than a year, the Imperial Capital will be in chaos. Do you want to watch helplessly as the legitimacy of the royal family is destroyed in our generation?”
Anthony said in a deep voice, “Then tell me, what is orthodoxy?”
Vivian said expressionlessly, “His Highness the First Prince is the legitimate heir to the throne. His Highness is dead, and his child is the orthodoxy of the royal family!”
The two of them were in a standoff. The people of Leiluo and Ethereal City held their breath.
Those who could follow them here were all trained by them. They were absolutely loyal to them.
The orcs who had been left out all this time were tired of their politics. Zaro said coldly, “Humans! The door to the Divine Valley has been opened. If you dare to stop us, our axes will not show mercy.”
Vivian said plainly, “We have an agreement before. We will not interfere with each other. You can go first.”
Zaro led the orcs into the depths of the canyon.
“Kill them,” Vivian said expressionlessly. “These beasts are no longer useful.”
The people of Leiluo looked at each other. The rangers, who had been suppressed for a long time, shot sharp arrows at the orcs.
One magic after another fell on the orcs.
