Hail the King

Chapter 983: Standing on The Outside (Part One)

Fei suddenly felt like the Endless Sea of Forests was shining with stars today; the most top-tier masters of the Central Region gathered here.

This was clearly a well-planned trap, and it was designed to kill.

Now, Fei already felt a little sympathetic toward Collina and the other two.

The fact that these people got together and planned this trap meant that Collina, Henning, and Stoltenberg’s names were already checked in red on the Grim Reaper’s account book. It was hard to tell if they should feel honored or sad.

…

“Alexandre Pato, Rodrigo Palacio, Diego Milito, and Antonio Cassano…” Collina murmured with a bitter smile on his face. Every time he said one name, the desperation in his mind intensified.

These five people were the most famous five young lords in the Central Region.

Every one of them was on par if not stronger than an execution oracle.

Collina’s eyes finally landed back on Shaarawy, and he sighed in desperation, “I didn’t expect this at all. This is too sudden. The [Two Unparalleled Geniuses] of the AC Milan Empire and the [Three Bloody Generals] of the Inter Milan Empire all moved because of us. You guys really planned this out…”

The five young lords didn’t respond to his words.

Collina laughed tragically and continued, “Hehe, haha! It seems like we can’t escape from death, right? Huh… El Shaarawy, you exposed your whereabouts to us on purpose, huh? You tried to lure the three of us here intentionally, right?”

“You got it,” Shaarawy responded with a teasing smile.

“Using the lake as a hiding place… great plan! You guys engraved a god-tier magic array at the bottom of the lake to hide your auras, and the water covered the magic energy flames. That way, you avoided being detected by the three of us, and you successfully ambushed us. Is this why you decided to battle by the lake?”

“That is right.”

“So, could it be that the King of Chambord appeared here as a part of your plan?”

“That isn’t correct.” Shaarawy shook his head and said, “This is just a coincidence.”

Hearing that, Collina looked at Fei as some hope appeared in his eyes. Suddenly, he turned around and shouted at Shaarawy and others in anger, “How dare you?! You planned all this to ambush and kill execution oracles of the Holy Church! Aren’t you afraid of being killed by tens of thousands of blades?”

“Stop joking,” Shaarawy laughed and looked at Collina as if he were looking at an idiot. He mocked, “Right now, the Holy Church and the three empires are like fire and water; there is no way out of this. The conflict will only end with one party dead! There is nothing to talk about! What? You want us to wash our necks and extend them so that you can chop down with sabers? Stop saying nonsense to waste time! Collina, take out the dignity and presence of an execution oracle! Battle me like a man! Don’t stain the honor of the masters!”

Collina fell into a moment of silence.

Now, the dumb Henning finally realized the situation.

A shocked and terrified expression appeared on his oily, fat face. While looking at Stoltenberg’s cold corpse, Henning felt like a powerful hand of death clenched his throat, and he had a hard time breathing.

If it weren’t for the wide red godly robe, his shaky legs that were as soft as noodles would be exposed in everyone’s eyes.

A moment earlier, he was still dreaming about easily completing this mission, and he already felt smug. However, he suddenly turned into a fat pig who was waiting to be slaughtered. If the young lords of the two powerful empires didn’t surround them and block all the escape paths, he would have ditched Collina and ran.

Chapter 983: Standing on The Outside (Part Two)

Suddenly, Henning thought of something.

“King of Chambord! Alexander! You are the bishop of the [Black-Cloth Shrine], so you must save us! Do you hear me?”

Henning stared at Fei and shouted, and he looked like a drowning man who was trying to clutch at a straw, which was the king in this case.

This ‘fat pig’ was worked up. Like a rabbit that was blocked in a dead-end, Henning shouted in desperation as his eyes got all red, “I’m ordering you! As an execution oracle, I command you to protect us and take us out of here! You need to stall…”

Right now, Fei didn’t know what to say; he didn’t know how and why this fat man was an execution oracle.

With such low intelligence, he somehow became a peak Burning Sun Lord and took a seat as an execution oracle on the Holy Mountain at Sicily Island; how lucky must this man be?

“Even in this situation, this fat pig is still talking to me like a superior? Order? Order your granddaddy!” Fei thought to himself.

On the other hand, Collina gradually calmed down.

While looking at Fei, Collina said earnestly, “Alexander Your Majesty, I know that you don’t get along with the Northern Regional Church, so it makes sense that you don’t want to help us capture Shaarawy. However, the situation is different now. We are execution oracles from the Holy Mountain, and we represent the entire Holy Church. We are peers and comrades. Now that the Holy Church is in such a worrisome state, can’t you drop the grudge of previous conflicts and face the enemies of the god? After all, you are a [God’s Favorite Child]. Do you really want to see the subjects of Father Lord die here?”

Without question, Collina and Henning’s lives depended on Fei today.

Although Stoltenberg was already dead, Collina knew that Fei and Elena’s strength combined was at least on par if not stronger than this dead execution oracle.

If Fei decided to stand with the execution oracles, the ratio of masters would become four to five. Even if the four of them couldn’t defeat Shaarawy and the other four young lords, they could make it out of here alive.

Hearing Collina’s words, the five young lords turned their attention to Fei as well.

“If the Human Emperor of the North gets involved, this situation will be tough,” they thought to themselves.

They had no idea that the perfect trap they created would become this passive with the coincidental appearance of the Human Emperor of the North. People can make plans, but it is up to fate to grant success.

To everyone’s surprise, Fei shook his head and rejected Collina’s suggestion without hesitation.

“We are different; we are different people and are on different paths. Even if you guys win, I will kill that fat pig.” Fei pointed at Henning and sneered, “Fat Pig, do you really think that a dirty man like you can look at my women in lust? I was planning to dig out your dirty eyes and feed them to the dog, but since there are people who want to kill you, I don’t need to move anymore and dirty my hands!”

“You…” Henning was so angry that he instantly wanted to cuss back.

However, when he saw Fei’s murderous stare, a chill rushed into his brain from the bottom of his spine, and he couldn’t get a single word out as if someone clenched his throat.

In the meantime, Blacky who was standing by the lake growled in displeasure; it was telling the king that it wouldn’t eat such dirty eyes.

“Hahaha! King of Chambord, you sure didn’t disappoint me. When you are offended, you dare to draw your weapon in the face of power! You are a real man!” Shaarawy laughed and said, “However, if you can put yourself on a higher level, all humans on the continent will benefit.”

It seemed like this young lord was very fond of Fei, and he invited the king again.
