Chapter 1318: Chapter 889 Rumors_2

“…………”

Hearing this name, the expressions of others slightly changed. At that time, Duanmu Huai directly tore Moritz apart in front of all the noblemen in the military camp, brutally pulling off his head. Naturally, it shocked the nobles from Paretia Kingdom, and logically speaking, Duanmu Huai should have been immediately executed, but he was left unscathed. Later, the noblemen learned that the man who called himself the Judge had signed an alliance treaty with His Majesty the King, meaning he held the same power as Prince Algard in directing the United Army… Wait!

“Lord Julius, are you suggesting… that Princess Anisphere might still reclaim her right to the throne?”

Another noble’s offspring asked with a pale face.

Thinking it over, rationally, no matter how powerful Duanmu Huai was, he should not have killed the son of the head of the Magic Department. But the premise is–he had no interest dispute with the other party!

If that man truly was Princess Anisphere’s fiance, then in principle, his status would be the same as that of Prince Algard, possessing the right to inherit the throne.

With this in mind, his earlier act of killing Moritz at the meeting could be understood–he was eliminating a future political rival!

At this thought, the expressions changed on the faces of those noble offspring.

“But, but didn’t Princess Anisphere announce a long time ago that she had relinquished her right to the throne?”

“So what? At that time, Her Highness was just a child, couldn’t she just say she hadn’t thought it through and reclaim her right to the throne?”

“Wait, does that mean, that this operation’s objective is not only to take back the Northern Fortress but also a test for Prince Algard? If he loses, then Princess Anisphere might be able to reclaim her inheritance rights?!”

Suddenly, the atmosphere, which had been quite casual in the hall, tensed up.

This absolutely cannot happen!

Remember, because Anisphere has been unable to contract and use Elf Magic since she was a child, many have mocked her, including these noblemen following Prince Algard. Especially after Anisphere announced the relinquishment of her throne rights, they have been even more disrespectful.

At that time, everyone believed that Prince Algard would certainly inherit the throne and simply marrying off Anisphere far away would resolve the issue, so they did not care.

But now… if Anisphere really inherits the throne, they are done for!

Not to mention her radical ideas about Magic Studies; just by the fact they mocked Anisphere from childhood, they do not believe she will let them off.

Not to mention that man!

Just thinking about that Steel Warrior, the noble offspring couldn’t help trembling; the oppressive aura he exudes is not something they can endure. Therefore, normally, these noble offspring dare not go near where Duanmu Huai resides, fearing that he might be displeased and pluck their heads off and throw them onto a table.

Although his background is unknown, from his previous actions, it is clear that he is an utterly brutal and barbaric Demon, able to mercilessly kill those of noble status without care!

Is he really not from the Demon Clan?!

“This can’t be true!”

“Absolutely not, how can that man become the King?”

“But His Majesty the King seems to think highly of him, otherwise, he would not sign a treaty…”

“This is impossible! Prince Algard has our noble support, what does Princess Anisphere have? Even relying on that man, what can she do?”

“He can kill you all.”

Amid the arguing of the noble offspring, Viscount Julius spoke again, his words like a cold breeze brushing past the noble offspring, involuntarily stopping their arguing.

“This… this can’t be possible!”

“Why not?”

Looking towards him, the trembling noble offspring, Viscount Julius spread his hands.

“Everyone, this is a war, our war with the Demon Clan, and it is certain that people will die in this war. If you die in the war against the Demon Clan, then… who can say anything about it?”

“…………”

Everyone involuntarily shivered.

Indeed, it is a war, a war against the Demon Clan, if it really breaks out, who knows what will happen. If one is killed amidst the chaos, then everything is over. Even if the other party is suspected, without evidence, it’s useless!

“So, what should we do?”

“It’s simple.”

Looking at the noble offspring before him, Viscount Julius showed a slight smile.

“We need to communicate with the Prince, striking first.”

“With the Prince? But…”

“Do you have anything else to say?”

However, Viscount Julius again looked toward the gossip earlier, who hesitated.

“Yes, I actually heard… that Miss Yuriya is also involved.”

“What?!”

Hearing this, everyone was greatly shocked.

Anisphere likes to create trouble, and Teerdi is a witch to be feared. mpfr_complete_db, what outrageous things they would do, in the eyes of the nobility, isn’t surprising, but Yuriya… she is the Prince’s fiancee, the future Queen Consort!

The future Queen Consort staying overnight at another man’s place without returning?

Really?

That just means something might be above Prince Highness’…

“I just heard, I just heard!”

Seeing others looking toward him, the gossip man was also scared and hurriedly waved his hand.

“I didn’t see it personally, I just heard the guards saying it. It has nothing to do with me!”

“It can’t be, Miss Yuriya wouldn’t do such a shameless thing, right?”

“It shouldn’t be…”

Although this news was indeed explosive, the noble offspring were also unable to believe it for a moment; after all, Yuriya is a perfect Aristocratic Lady, she wouldn’t do such a thing. Not like Anisphere and Teerdi who like to make trouble…

“Regardless, this matter doesn’t seem ordinary.”

Viscount Julius stood up.

“I think it’s necessary to advise Prince Highness, even if it’s just a rumor, spreading such a rumor is too outrageous and will affect the reputation of the Royal Family and the nobility.”

Saying this, Viscount Julius had a serious expression.

“I will request a meeting with Prince Highness to resolve this issue.”
