Chapter 1037: Chapter 377 The Death of Valentin VIII

March 26th, Lionheart City.

The news of Red Chancellor Peng Bonazzi’s death had already reached Lionheart City the day before yesterday.

Peng Bonazzi’s “children” were too closely connected to him on the Path of Love… thus, more or less, they all shared some mystical connections based on the Path of Love.

—-When Peng Bonazzi died completely, all of his “children” sensed it at the same moment.

One person might have had a delusion.

But if everyone felt the same sensation at the same moment, then it was unlikely to be mistaken…

However, even with undeniable evidence, they still took a whole day to gradually accept this incredible fact.

…Father is dead?

Could Peng Bonazzi really have died?

—-That was the world’s strongest Son of the Moon! A great person who was just half a step away from the realm of the “Perfect Being”!

Could this be another one of his pranks, or some conspiracy? Or perhaps he had already died once, but resurrected, now lurking among us, looking for that child who didn’t show him enough respect…

When Peng Bonazzi was alive, they couldn’t wait for him to die–because Peng Bonazzi was too controlling and had a rough temperament. They might be genuine big shots in front of others, but in front of Peng Bonazzi, they were like children. They would be kicked and pushed around for no reason, and if something went wrong, he might even devour them on the spot.

But now that Peng Bonazzi is truly dead, they felt panic.

Without Peng Bonazzi, how could they counter the Spirit Summoning Tower with the Black Chancellor awakened?

Stepping back… with the current trend of the Sons of the Moon uniting, having the Sons of the Moon of Star Antimony as the main body was entirely due to Peng Bonazzi’s influence. But now that Peng Bonazzi is dead, wouldn’t they have to serve as slaves to the Sons of the Moon from foreign lands? Those Sons of the Moon were nothing like these gentle factions!

The era of the Red Chancellor has ended, what does this mean?

—-It means that the era of Valentin VIII is also about to end.

In their panic, they wanted to find Count Leipzig, to get an explanation or at least some advice, only to discover that he too had disappeared.

Through the ritual’s positioning, they could confirm that Count Leipzig was not dead–he had been inside the Spirit Summoning Tower all this time and his health was fine.

So the Sons of the Moon suddenly felt they knew the truth.

—-Well done, it was you who betrayed our father, wasn’t it!

After all, in the understanding of the Sons of the Moon, probably only the “headmaster” of the Spirit Summoning Tower could quickly kill Peng Bonazzi, the old ancestor with strong life force. And he had just awakened not long ago. Necromancy naturally restrains the Sons of the Moon, and if they were at the same level, maybe they could have killed Peng Bonazzi under a conspiracy and a surprise attack…

As for the motive–it must be because Peng Bonazzi had slain Valentine the Seventh.

In fact, many of them strongly disapproved of Peng Bonazzi’s actions.

No matter what, at least they shouldn’t lay hands on the King… The Elves of the Holy Nation wouldn’t care about internal power struggles. Therefore, they could only use their own strength to prevent the Monarch from being assassinated.

Today Peng Bonazzi killed Valentine the Seventh, so does that mean tomorrow the Demon Scholars can kill Valentin VIII? And then the day after tomorrow the Alchemists poison Valentine the Ninth to death, and finally, those Necromancers get rid of the rest and take them away, leaving no Valentine.

Once the bottom line is broken, the restraint of morals and rules ceases to exist.

When people realize that killing the king is a solution to many problems, the rule of the Monarch will no longer be stable. By then, wars and chaos will erupt… If the Sons of the Moon of the Iris Flower were pleased about this, but they are followers of the Banquet Master… They just want pleasure and not to touch those dangerous things.

They want wealth and pleasure but don’t want to bear work and responsibility, so they could only exist as “nobles,” attached to the Monarch.

—-But even though they know this isn’t right, what can they do about it?

Did they dare to advise Peng Bonazzi?

Peng Bonazzi would eat you alive if he got angry.

While the Sons of the Moon were in disarray, Professor Odvar Laximi also learned of this news from his lover and friend, Peng Bonazzi’s “daughter,” Blood Coral.

“…Peng Bonazzi is dead?”

Professor Laximi exclaimed in astonishment.

As a professor of the Spirit Summoning Tower, he had not received any intelligence from the Tower–he immediately knew that he was probably abandoned by the Spirit Summoning Tower.

Without a doubt… he felt Peng Bonazzi’s death was somewhat related to him.

It was because he had relayed the information to Peng Bonazzi that “Aleister is in Leipzig,” which led Peng Bonazzi to rush to Leipzig. Shortly after that, both Count Leipzig and First Red Chancellor, Pomponazzi, disappeared…

The Sons of the Moon are now in chaos, headless, so no one has realized his problem yet. But this situation probably won’t last long.

—-So, Professor Laximi immediately began to pack his things, preparing to flee.

He didn’t have much to bring in the first place; practically everything was already packed in his suitcase. Therefore, after hurrying back to pack and load up his suitcase, he dashed out with it in tow.

As soon as he stepped out the door, he saw Blood Coral quietly leaning against the wall.
