At that moment, in the palace...

“Your Majesty, Watson had just used magic to create a massive lake on the west side of the capital. It seems to be connected to the water city. In addition, Watson had placed 100,000 soldiers around the lake. What should we do?”

A person who looked like a general asked as he knelt on one knee. His expression had darkened.

The sea folks’ and humans’ relationship had never been harmonious in the past.

Many humans had captured the sea folks as slaves, and the sea folks would occasionally sing on the sea’s surface to lure the humans into a shipwreck.

The appearance of 100,000 sea folks outside the capital would impact the royal family’s authority in the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

“I have already announced Watson as the future king. Therefore, Watson’s actions are no different from mine. Next time, there’s no need to report such matters to me. You may leave.” King Landhar III waved his hand.

“Yes, Your Majesty. I understand.”

The guard wanted to say something, but when he saw King Landhar III’s determined expression, he could only clench his teeth, bow respectfully, and take his leave. At that moment, King Landhar seemed to have thought of something. He said, “Wait a moment. In the battle just now, the Dragon Knights’ Captain, Julius, died in battle to protect me. We can’t be without a captain for a day. Let Watson be the new captain. Report this to the soldiers and the Dragon Knights.”

After giving the order, King Landhar III watched the soldier leave. At that moment, a man’s voice suddenly came from beside him.

“King Landhar III, you appointed Watson as your heir. You also changed the kingdom’s church system, allowing Watson to replace the seven gods. Now, you even made him the Dragon Knights’ Captain! That doesn’t seem like something you would do.”

The man who spoke was none other than Sylvan. He had been accompanying King Landhar III to monitor him.

“Sylvan, you know me. After all, we’ve spent a few years together. It’s too harsh of you to say such words.”

“Seriously? I used to be miserable because I thought I knew you. Avril said that you’re a cold, heartless, selfish person.” Sylvan sneered, his eyes full of killing intent.

Taking a deep breath, he hid the killing intent in his eyes and said, “I followed you to the palace to prevent you from doing anything harmful to Watson. On the other hand, I also wanted to see where Avril was buried. Tell me, where did you bury Avril?”

“Come with me.”

After a short silence, King Landhar III led Sylvan deeper into the palace courtyard. On the way, they passed by a garden in full bloom. Queen Isabella was with Kiana. Each of them was holding a watering can to water the flowers. After seeing King Landhar III and Sylvan, the two women put down their things, came to the two of them, and bowed.

“Greetings to His Majesty and His Excellency.”

“Father, Uncle.”

Kiana held Isabella’s hand and bowed respectfully to Sylvan. She stole a glance at Sylvan. She had long heard of that border count. The most important thing was that Sylvan came from the border. They said that he had a good relationship with Watson, who was also from the border.

She had seen the battle in the sky, but she was not strong enough to see it clearly. She had only vaguely seen Watson’s figure. She had wanted to leave the palace and find a closer place to watch the battle. However, the palace was protected by many guards; not even her mother could not go. They could only choose to water the flowers there.

While Kiana was sizing up Sylvan, the older man glanced at Isabella and Kiana. There was no emotion in his eyes. “King Landhar III, this is your wife and child? When you were with Avril, you promised that you would not marry anyone else in this life except Avril. What bullsh*t!”

Sylvan’s words made Isabella feel awkward. She waved her hands around her lower abdomen, seemingly at a loss.

“Sylvan, I have never forgotten the promise I made in the past. However, as the ruler of a kingdom, I am duty-bound to carry on the bloodline of the royal family! I have let Avril down. Now that two of my three sons have died, I have let my ancestors down.”

King Landhar III sighed, his expression sorrowful.

“Your Majesty, what did you say? Our sons are dead? When did that happen? Is that true?” Isabella held her breath and reached out to grab the corner of King Landhar III’s shirt.

She had been watering the flowers with Kiana. She did not know what had happened outside, and no one told her.

“Our eldest and second sons had died, Isabella. That is true.”

King Landhar III explained with a flash of pity on his face. Isabella could no longer hear him and stumbled backward. If it were not for Kaia supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground.

“How did they die?”

“I am saddened by their deaths too. Life, old age, illness, and death are all fated. As the Queen, you must not show such panic. If outsiders were to see it, it would damage the dignity of the royal family! Also, since I’ve already told you the news of our sons’ deaths, I’ll let you know one more thing. I’ve just confirmed Watson as the kingdom’s next king.”

“King Landhar III...” Sylvan said, his voice containing a warning tone.

It was easy to guess the relationship between King Landhar III and his wife, telling her about the deaths of the two princes and then about Watson becoming his heir.

As expected, Isabella’s eyes instantly turned red. “Your Majesty, why did you let our children die and establish Watson’s foothold in the kingdom? We have another son and a daughter. Did Watson do something to you? I saw the battle in the sky. The palace would have collapsed if it weren’t for the protection of our guards. Did Watson cause the deaths of my two sons?”

“It has nothing to do with Watson. I’ll go over the details with you later. Before that, please move aside. I have something important to discuss with Sylvan.” King Landhar III’s majestic tone brought Isabella back from her irrational emotions. She gritted her teeth. Even though she looked reluctant, Isabella still pulled Kiana toward her.

“Don’t just stand there, Sylvan.”

King Landhar III did not even look at Isabella. He took Sylvan and disappeared into the depths of the flowers. During that process, Sylvan looked back and saw the hatred in Isabella’s eyes. Even if King Landhar III said that that matter had nothing to do with Watson, Isabella would not believe it.

As he thought of an opportunity to tell Watson about that, Sylvan followed King Landhar III to the deepest part of the flower bush.

The deepest part of the flowering shrub was different from the outside. There were no colorful flowers there. There was only one type of flower that bloomed. It was a strange flower with three colors—red, yellow, and blue.

“Pansy is a flower that generally blooms in the Forest of Eternity. It’s also Avril’s favorite flower. It’s rare that you still remember it and plant them on such a large area. This is my sister’s grave, right?”

There were no tombstones or prominent graves, but Sylvan was sure that Avril’s body was buried there.

King Landhar III nodded. He waved his hand, and the ground in the garden immediately parted, revealing a huge coffin inside.

It was a crystal coffin—a beautiful girl lay in it. Her platinum hair fell behind her head, and her pointy ears were hidden in the strands of her hair. Her skin was almost transparent, and one could vaguely see the blood vessels. Her eyebrows were groomed with love, and her hands were placed on her chest. The gorgeous pleated dress she wore did not have a single wrinkle on them.. She looked like she was only sleeping.
