BXBX NOVEL Chapter 167 Rebellion
Nobody knew what was happening except Velian who couldn't help but feel happy about this development.
"Release Davin Keller and his brother!"
"Punish corrupted nobles,"
"Royalty is corrupted, punish them,"
There were a lot of people outside the castle shouting and protesting with weapons in their arms. Their sound reached the hall as soon as Velian opened the door confusing most of the nobles in the room.
Most of the weapons they had were either sickles or rakes, they looked more like farmers than soldiers who were trying to start a rebellion.
"What is happening?" Panicked hearing the sound, all of them quickly got up from their seats and tried to take a look.
The assassin who was dumbfounded by this twist couldn't help but be confused about what to do.
"Why can't I attack him? It's almost like he anticipated this to happen, and led me here," He thought as he quickly went for another slash but this time, Delviny acted as she quickly grabbed his dagger and hit his face with her elbow.
*Bam
With a jaw-breaking sound, the man who was clad in black fell on the ground with his mask leaking blood from how dangerous, Delviny's attack was.
"You're annoying, your job here is done, go back or I will kill you," As soon as the man looked into her eyes, he didn't know why but he felt like his bladder was leaking.
"Wait!" Suddenly, Velian asked him to halt before he could run.
"This is not enough blood, this doesn't look convincing, I'm sorry but can you please give me some blood?" He politely asked like it was the most normal thing to ask.
The assassin who witnessed this had only one question.
"What is wrong with these people?" He freaked out, he quickly collected his dagger and was to run but suddenly he felt excruciating pain in his shoulder.
"Ahhhhhh~" Shouting he lay on the floor, and looked back at what was happening only to see Velian using his blood as a dye to colour his face.
"Yes, this is enough blood to convince them,"
Delviny looked a little bothered by how Velian used someone else blood for the matter.
"Brother, you could have used my blood? Why did you use filthy blood?" Any normal person who overheard this conversation would freak out thinking some weird stuff going on here but for Delviny and Velian, losing some blood felt like nothing.
"Darling, don't fight here, I understand your plan a little, so let's just go before commoners start killing others," Daphnia said while peeking her head out the window to take a good look at what was going on outside.
"What do we do with these nobles? And that princess looked like she didn't know about any of these things?" Looking at the metallic door, Delviny questioned.
"Hmm~ are soldiers are surrounding this area so even if they want to escape, it will be impossible for them, but that princess, let's see what she does, I feel bad for her just a little,"
*Stare
Delviny and Daphnia kept staring at Velian like they were questioning his motives, he just smiled knowing what they are anxious about.
"You two... Do you think I would hit on every girl I see?"
Velian questioned with disappointment but inside he was laughing at their reactions.
"You would,"
"Yes, you would, you're still 17 years old but you already have more than five girls and you seduced your own mother and sister,"
Daphnia was just teasing her son, she didn't even mean anything but the more she thought about it, she realised how absurd her son's love life is.
"My little playboy!" Slowly running her finger through his silver colour hair which was reddened because of blood, she teased him.
"Now, now, you know that's not true, I only date girls I really love,"
All three of them totally forgot about their real purpose of coming here, as they kept teasing each other until they heard a window breaking with a huge sound.
"Give us our food back, our children are starving,"
Daphnia looked at the crowd with pity in her eyes.
"Veli, you should take care of them after this, I know I'm being unreasonable but look at them, they remind me of the time, when I took care of you three in that small village,"
Delviny felt their mother was again trying to be a crybaby but she just waited for Velian's answer.
"I will, don't worry about that mother," Velian gave her a reassuring smile.
"Now, it's time for some acting," Quickly Velian held his shoulder like he was in pain and his facial expression suddenly changed.
"Follow me!" As soon as he said that, Velian started to run like he was being chased by someone until he arrived at the main door which led to the edit of the castle.
Many guards were trying to hold the commoners with reluctant expressions, as most of the guards were also coming from commoner families and they were confused about how to act.
Even high-ranking commanders waited for someone to give an order but fortunately for them, orders didn't come from the council.
"Please don't kill me," Shouting with pain and sadness, Velian left through the main door where people were protesting.
It didn't even take a few seconds for everyone to go silent seeing one of their rebellion leaders injured like this.
Suddenly, Delviny held Velian by his shoulder while pretending that she was injured.
"I'm sorry, we couldn't convince those nobles, as soon as my brother started talking about land and money, they started attacking him,"
Everyone listened to their words with their anger being fueled by Delviny's words. People started to murmur among themselves until they heard Velian's next words.
"Don't worry, even if they kill me, I won't give up, my brother Davin told me how oppressive these nobles are, I won't let them steal your food and land anymore,"
He couldn't even finish those words, people started to shout even more angered than before. Their pointe words changed into more vulgar insults as everyone suddenly started to break the main door to enter the castle.
"It started," Looking at the result of his acting, Velian quickly ordered his soldiers to act according to his orders.
