“Thud… thud…”

The two heads raining down from the sky caused the raging battlefield below to fall silent.

Then, the identities associated with the two heads were recognized:

“It’s His Majesty the King!”

“It’s Lord Cis!”

The deaths of the king and the rebel leader allowed panic to spread uncontrollably.

Both the Silver Moon Guards and the rebels began to ponder one question – if the leadership is gone, what are we fighting for?

At this moment, if anyone with high status from either cast steps forwards, they could hold off the soldier’s panic.

But unfortunately,

Even Prince William and Duke Lute stood stunned, looking at those two heads on the ground, immersed in boundless terror and shock, too overwhelmed to manage their increasingly turbulent subordinates.

No one knew who first dropped their weapon, but like the falling first domino, a chain reaction was triggered. The soldiers who had been fighting fiercely for the entire night started to discard their weapons one after the other and scattered in all directions.

Seeing this, Colin spread his wings and made his way to the southern gate of Silver Moon City.

He didn’t forget he still had a family army there.

Surely, after hearing the fight inside the city, Knight Lyle would lead his men into battle. freewebnoveℓ.com

As for Knight Teld who was tasked with being the bait and the guards of the St. Hilde family, Colin didn’t have the time to care for them yet.

But after all, he knew where his priorities lay.

Driven by his large bat wings, Colin moved at a high speed, and soon saw the flames caused by warfare in the southern section of the city from afar.

Those should be the men lead by Knight Lyle.

As Colin was preparing to dive down to provide assistance, he suddenly felt a weakness in him that originated from deep in his bloodline.

Was the transformation time-limited?

Colin felt a sudden terror within him and quickly shot down onto the nearby ground.

He was afraid of losing his wings mid-flight and then splattering on the ground.

Meanwhile, Knight Lyle, who was still in the heat of battle, heard a rumbling sound and it felt like even the earth was trembling.

Knight Lyle, at a loss for what happened, quickly looked around on full alert.

Then, he saw a few half-elf girls screaming and running out of a small wooden house nearby.

Their disheveled clothing led Knight Lyle to misunderstand the situation.

Filled with a sense of justice, Knight Lyle immediately took big strides over with the intention of teaching this scoundrel trying to take advantage of innocent women amidst the city’s chaos, a lesson.

Bam!

Knight Lyle kicked open the door and shouted: “You brat! Get out of here…” His words caught in his throat halfway through.

Because he recognized the man clumsily wrapping a bedsheet around himself It was Colin!

Now face to face, there was a sudden silence in the air.

“Your…your lordship…cough, please continue, go ahead…”

Seeing Knight Lyle shrink back, Colin couldn’t help but feel speechless: “It’s not what you think… never mind, find me some clothes.”

“Y-yes!

After Colin got dressed, Knight Lyle hesitated a bit, then felt it was necessary to make up for the previous misunderstanding. He scratched his bald head and said with a goofy grin:

“My lord, actually, it’s an honor for those peasant half-elves to be considered as a lover by you… You don’t need to sneak around, just tell me directly, and I’d help you…”

“Shut up!” Colin glared at Knight Lyle. He realized it was probably pointless to try and explain this situation.

Nevertheless, he felt it necessary to clarify a bit: “I just finished a fight and my clothes were ruined, then I crashed into this room…”

“So that’s how it is!” Knight Lyle understood, though it wasn’t clear to Colin if he truly believed it or not.

Colin shook his head, hastily changing the subject: “How many casualties did your men suffer?”

“Not many, the Half-Elf guards were plentiful but their combat abilities were quite dismal.” Colin nodded, “Good, regroup your men, and follow me.”

“Yes, Sir!”

When the first rays of dawn shone on the castle of Silver Moon City, the once beautiful Garden City had lost its former glory.

This unexpected rebellion plunged the entire city into chaos. It was as though Pandora’s box had been opened, releasing the dark sides that had been lurking in people’s hearts for a long time.

Theft, rape, arson, murder… countless crimes were committed overnight. In addition, the rebel army that had escaped from the royal palace turned Silver Moon City into a living hell in an instant.

Of course, this hell was only for the Half-Elf commoners. The Half-Elf nobles, who had their private armed forces and sturdy castles, naturally wouldn’t be affected much.

Take the Miller family, for example.

“Colin! It’s such a relief that you are safe!”

At the entrance of the Miller family’s manor, Vera joyously leapt into Colin’s arms, completely disregarding the onlookers.

Of course, nobody dared to show any disapproval. They all politely turned their heads, pretending not to have seen anything.

“Why wouldn’t I be safe?” Colin, holding the soft body of the young woman and smelling her fragrance, suddenly felt that his efforts were not in vain after all.

After the joy of reuniting faded away, Vera shyly extricated herself from Colin’s arms, and then looked puzzlingly around before asking, “Where is Sir Teld?”

“He… We got separated during the battle. I’ve sent men out to look for him. Don’t worry.” Colin certainly was not going to tell Vera that he had used Sir Teld as bait.

“Alright.” Vera trusted Colin without any suspicions.

Colin’s gaze shifted past Vera onto Queen Isa, “My Queen, Silver Moon City is currently in chaos and I have heard that the King was killed during the confusion. Therefore, we need you to return to the palace right now and take overall charge.”

“The King… is dead?”

On hearing that the old King was dead, the mutters of shock echoed from everyone, their expressions very different.

Queen Isa mimicked a look of shock and grief. However, Colin, who knew her well, saw the hidden satisfaction in her eyes.

“Yes, Viscount, I shall return to the palace right away. Can I ask you and Miss Vera to come along? The Half-Elf Kingdom needs your support.”

Vera naturally turned to Colin, seeking his opinion.

Colin pretended to hesitate before nodding, “Of course, we are honored to extend our helping hand in this time of crisis, considering the many years of friendship between the Half-Elf Kingdom and the North Territory.”

Colin then turned to Knight Lyle, issuing an order: “Make way, escort Queen Isa and Miss Vera to the palace!”

“Yes, Sir!” Knight Lyle responded loudly.

After a night of carnage, the Half-Elf Silver Moon Guards were in disarray. Meanwhile, this virtually unscathed force of the Angler family, had now become a pivotal military power in Silver Moon City.

Shortly, Colin and his party were safely admitted into the palace.

By this time, the palace had lost its former solemnity. Bloodied corpses could be seen everywhere.

On entering the main hall, Colin saw Prince William kneeling dazedly before his father’s corpse. He didn’t react even when Colin and his party entered.

On seeing this, Queen Isa stepped forward and said softly, “William, Miss Vera and Viscount Angler have arrived.”

Prince William only then lazily turned his head towards the entrance, his gaze still unfocused.

“Miss Vera, Viscount Angler… ‘

He showed no shock, even when he heard that Vera, presumed to be dead, was alive.

This simple-minded and indecisive Half-Elf Prince had become dazed and confused. After the death of his father, he was like a man without a soul.

Colin strode forward, speaking out loud, “Prince William, because of this rebellion, Miss Vera has serious doubts about the Medewen family’s ability to control Silver Moon City and to continue leading the Half-Elf Kingdom.

Therefore, after discussing it with the Half-Elf nobles, Miss Vera has decided that the Medewen family is no longer suited to continue bearing the important duty of the Half-Elf’s royal family. The throne will now be inherited by Isa Miller. Do you have any objections to this?”

Prince William’s body shook, and his eyes finally focussed.

He numbly raised his head to look at Vera, then at Queen Isa, and finally, his gaze fell on Colin.

Colin’s face was somber, his expression icy.

For some reason, Prince William suddenly felt as if he was back in the dreadful night before when the devil descended from the sky and beheaded his father…

Consequently, the Half-Elf Prince fell to his knees, quivering as he said:

“I… I don’t have… any objections….”
