Chapter 338 Ending A Rebellion For A Price Part 2
“Now that that is done, I guess I will start with what I promised.” I cleared my throat as my eyes lit up. “All those who are against the crown, die.” With a single sentence that echoed across the entire kingdom, tens of thousands of soldiers and others died on the spot. Even some of the knights here in this room and a few officials. I checked the entire kingdom with my detection magic, and all fighting had stopped.
“There, done. Negotiation complete. Please write up an official bill of sale to the Kingdom of Gravos over the territory transfer.” I said as I stood up and stretched. “I will find an inn to stay in for the time being. Send a knight to follow after me so they can return and tell you where.”
As I started to walk out of the throne room under the stupefied gazes of the people there, the door burst open, and a handsome young man with raven black hair and eyes ran through it. “Father! We won! I don’t know what spell was cast, but it killed every soldier who was a part of the rebellion!”
“Fredrick, please mind your manners. Miss! I still do not know your name.” The king called out to me. Now that I think about it, it is true that I did not introduce myself. I turned and said: “My name is Princess Cyrilia of the Kingdom of Gravos, and next to me is my fiancee Crown Princess Adel of the Kingdom of Gravos, and my other fiancee Sophie Cyrilia.”
The king watched as I gave a knightly bow instead of a lady like one, but this was due to the fact that I was not wearing a dress. “Your Majesty, I will now retire, so please send an escort.”
“AH…. yes…. I will have the bill of sale written up and stamped with the royal seal.” The king must have been able to tell that I was not here to continue chatting, especially after I introduced two girls as my fiancees.
As we left, a guard walked behind us. Kim didn’t even say anything as we left. Maybe she was afraid or something. I am not too sure, but I truly do not care. A rebellion they were so worried about was easily taken care of by me with just a few words. I bet she is angry and probably blaming me for not doing something sooner.
I did tell her I would not do anything unless I was getting something out of it. If she had not lied to me and actually told me she had a good relationship with the king, then maybe, just maybe, she could have said she would do it and given me the land then and there. Then none of this would have happened.
But now it was too late. I am not sure how many people actually died because of my word magic just now, but it would not be the first time I have killed many in just a few words. We left the castle and were escorted to the inn in a carriage which was slow going as they had to make a path through the dead bodies that now laid strewn across the ground.
I wonder if I am broken now that the sight of so many dead bodies no longer seems to bother me at all. I have seen so many dead bodies as of late that I am pretty numb to it. I have also taken many lives.
If this was Earth, I would probably be the most wanted person in the world with my current kill count, which ranges in the hundreds of millions. So many soldiers have died due to a few words from me. But because of my abilities, it has also saved many lives as well like the few billion that live in the Gravos Kingdom.
But luckily, with this, my excursion through the other kingdoms is done, and I can get back on track. Once I finish up here and make a teleport to the gravos kingdom to connect to the new land, I can continue on to the destination I had planned for from the start. The Dwarven kingdom!
While I do now have many magic engineers, I still have more than just the current weapons and strange energy to take care of, but much, much more than that.
When we reached the inn, I rented a room with an extra large bed and led the girls upstairs. The room was quite cozy. It was small, but plenty of room to rest for the day. It was very quiet. “That was tiring!” I said as I flopped down onto the bed.
“Faith, at least take your boots off,” Sophie said as she walked over and began stripping my leather boots off me. I just lay there as the girls began peeling things off of me. They did not strip everything, just my outer armor.
Adel began giving me a massage which relaxed my muscles but to be honest, I do not know why they were all pampering me when they did most of the work. But I couldn’t move at this moment because Adel was sitting on my back and Sophie was on my legs, massaging my calves. “Why are you two suddenly massaging me?”
“Because we want a reason to touch your body,” Adel said bluntly, causing me to chuckle.
“Then massage away!” I would not say no! My two cute fiancees want to pamper me. Who am I to reject? It really did feel good.
“Hehe…. You have been much more open about our relationship as of late.” Adel said as she leaned down and kissed my cheek.
“Well… I figured there was no reason to hide it. I love you both, and you love me. I don’t want to hide the fact that we are together. I see no reason to. Plus, isn’t your father getting his wish? Once you become queen, I will be made royalty just like he has been wanting this entire time.”
