Chapter 144 - Ohh , What A Shame!

( The royal palace , inner district, PurpleHaze city , Hazelgroove kingdom )

Price Aman played with the red jewel in his hands as he looked at the seven people standing before him , the lacking strength of the group made him scoff , as it would not even take him a flick of his wrists to kill these ants. Even a basic deathknight in his arsenal could 1V7 these adventurers.

However he had to admit that they did him a huge meritorious service by bringing him this gem , and hence they deserved to be rewarded.

Aman was planning on dethroning the current emperor his father and seizing power for himself. However it was not easy to seize power from his old but strong warmage father who was at tier 4.

Aman knew he had to scheme to take the throne , and the red jewel was a vital part in his schemes. The red jewel was actually a very rare type of illusion stone . If powered using a formation , it could give birth to a very intricate and deathly illusion.

Aman was confident of killing the Emperor inside the illusion using his necromancy . The chief of Royal guards was aldready on his side , hence there would be no problem in taking over the millitary after the forcefull rise to the throne.

What Aman was afraid of However was Patricia Won Knight , would the Won Knight's swear their loyalty? Or will they rebel??Was a question he was worried about.

However that equation changed when he met the adventurer Shakuni Won Knight , inside the royal library.?The nonchalant reaction the player had to him being a necromancer was intriguing to Aman .

He needed such subordinates , smart but indifferent to his actions. He needed to somehow rope Shakuni in after he ascends the throne to consolidate his power.

Aman was conflicted in how to reward the seven people here however and he finally decided that they should be rewarded only in the future after he took the throne.

He decided to test the adventurers here , should they support him in his rise to power , they will be rewarded , if they choose to turn their backs on him, knowing his necromancer identity and his thirst for the throne , he would kill them right here right now and oust their guilds from the kingdom.

Aman said " Well done , well done , you have done a great meritorious deed for the kingdom?by delivering this soo very important gem to me ".

Ilovesmashing took a knee as he tried to butter up the king , he said " it is our pleasure to serve the glorious and righteous crown prince of Hazelgroove".

Aman's eyelids twitched , he was a necromancer dammit , glorious and righteous would be the two worst words to describe him.

However he continued " I plan on assasinating the king and taking over the throne through blood , i see you are a group of intelligent people , should you choose to support the uprising , you shall be appropriately rewarded in the future , soo what shall your choice be ".

System notification :

QUEST : Help Crown Prince Aman Rise to the throne ( A) : help crown prince Aman mentain civil order once he rises to the throne through blood and riots break out on the kingdom streets.

Rewards : Unknown

PinkLotus instantly felt like this quest was a red flag , however looking at the exited expressions of her colleagues , she knew the outcome. Yet before anyone could express their thoughts she asked " What if we refuse ? ".

The six of them showed her dirty glares , as naturally this was not the majority opinion , yet Aman laughed at her question.

He said " Its that or death , and knowing that you adventurers have been blessed by immortality by the goddess , it is probably infinite deaths, and also there will be no place for you and your guilds inside Hazelgroove kingdom anymore as the Royal guards would chase you out ".

Everyone had a chill down their spines hearing his reply , it was not an option if he put it that way now was it?

Gulping , Scorpio said " Ofcourse its our pleasure to serve his majesty the emperor ".

Scorpio deliberately called Aman the emperor to appease his anger , and naturally it worked as Aman smiled. He liked the sound of being called Emperor.

At this time a servant entered the room and passed a message to Aman that emmisaries from the Nineclouds kingdom were here and that the King requested his presence in the court.

Aman groaned , he had no intention of attending the court , yet he could not ignore his stupid fathers summons for now , as he needed to play the part of the ideal son.

He dismissed the alliance leaders as he went to the court.

-------------------------

( The royal court , Hazelgroove kingdom )

Inside the grand royal court lined with important and powerfull ministers , stood a group of Emmisary's from the Neighborhing Nineclouds kingdom.

The Emperor Cervantez91 sat on his throne looking towards the group. His aura majestic and fitting of a ruler.

Although Hazelgroove was a kingdom and not an empire , the history of Hazelgroove is such that it was once the strongest and largest empire in the continent . After years of battles and uprising , it shrank to its current size , however the Emperor never demoted his title to that of a King. Hence he was still called the Emperor.

Cervantez91 was an extremely skilled warrior who was a great general as well. In his reign , not a single inch of his kingdom was lost to enemy forces. The people were happy and he was revered.

Aman took his place at the court , just below the Emperor , as Cervantez gave him a slight nod , the attendance was now complete and the proceedings could start.

One of the Emmisary said " Your majesty , the Royal warehouse of the Nineclouds kingdom was raided and looted by a bunch of despicable theives who escaped with a lot of valuable items . Upon tracing the theives tracks , we discovered that they entered Hazelgroove kingdom.?The theieves made use of a secret passage unknown to the Kingdom to successfully carry out the heist , however they made a fatal mistake of renting the horses from a nearby village. The horseman saw their faces and has sworn on his neck that they are adventurers from a guild called Demolitionboys , we have the sketches here ".

They passed the sketches they obtained from the horse dealer and passed it to a court official.

Then he continued " We request cooperation in capturing the responsible parties with the assistance of the almighty emperor of Hazelgroove ".

Cervantez91 closed his eyes as he thought about the issue , he naturally despised theives and robbers , however the thieves were Hazelgroove citizens hence he needed to be sure before granting punishment . He said " The royal guards will assist you in checking their possesions , should the stolen items be found , they will be returned to Nineclouds respectfully , and the theieves willcbe tried under Hazelgroove kingdom's law and punished for their crimes ".

The Emmisary's bowed in respect of the Emperor as they said " That is very gracious your majesty , we have no qualms in your judgement ".

With this the matter was settled , However Aman had a deep frown on his face .... Wasnt one of the idiots who came to meet him a while ago the leader of Demolitionboys? If so this could be troublesome.....

( Meanwhile , The Grey international tower , the upside , Real world )

Ethan had became a lot more busy since he met the twins . A passion had been lit under him as he was grinding again in full gears , as he tried to destroy Mithun Ambani inside out.

Ethans greed had been ignited as he saw an opening that could make him gobble up all of Ambani's assets. His company , his buisnesses , he slowly yet surely make it all his.

Ethan Grey was not a good guy at heart , and he was naturally not helping the twins without expecting returns. He decided to treat Rudra as his brother and his equal as he knew the terrifying power of reincarnation , as he experienced it himself?and soo far his decision had not been proven wrong.

Amelia the logistic support that Ethan had given to the true elites and Ethan's spy inside the guild , reported the guild to have in game gold assets that values more than 3 trillion dollars. However the guild would tie them up inside real estate and such inside the game.

Ethan did not understand the game too much , but he understood money and Rudra's ability to earn money was terrifying , it was wayy wayy faster than even he Himself , and that was the only reason that Ethan did not exploit the twins and genuinely worked with them.

As he did not wish to antagonize Rudra. If Rudra could earn Trillions of dollars in the short timespan he had been playing the game , then down the line the profits he would make would be even more impressive and Ethan would take 30% of it.

Even if Ethan was the bigger man in the relationship for now , that dynamic would change in the future , and Ethan knew it . Hence he was glad that he decided to treat Rudra as his brother early on and he even did him favours by helping his guildmates. As these small things would take him a long way in the future.
