Chapter 749: Departure (Part One)
[Tl Note: This chapter is a 2-in-1 chapter, so it will be split into four parts.)
“The Villarreal Empire?”
The Villarreal Empire was a big level 8 empire from the Western Region of the Continent, and its nickname was [Yellow Submarine]. It was only less powerful compared to the two giant level 9 empires in the region, which were the Madrid Empire and the Barcelona Empire.
After many years of accumulation, it was one of the dominating forces in the region, and a small empire like Zenit couldn’t rival with it.
No wonder this gloomy young man was very arrogant and acted according to his will. Fei had met a lot of people who came from big empires, and they all acted this way when they were in Zenit.
“The Villarreal Empire sent a fleet of merchant caravans to Zenit? When was this?” Fei was confused and thought, “Could it be that the Western Region of the Continent is so chaotic that they are reaching for the Northern Region?”
“We just arrived here this afternoon, and we are from the branch in Love Song City. This is Mr. Nihat’s son, and Mr. Nihat is a level 8 manager in Soros’ Merchant Group...” This Eight-Star Warrior quickly introduced themselves.
Love Song City was the Capital of the Villarreal Empire. Typically speaking, the branches in the capitals of empires were in control of all other branches within the same empire, and they had the most influence in that empire. Since Nihat was a level 8 manager in the Soros’ Merchant Group, he was one of the influential figures in the group, and his status was supreme. Even the emperors of level 2 and level 3 empires would have to pay respect to people who were on his level.
Fei laughed and said, “So, he is only the son of a damn level 8 manager, and he dares to be this reckless? How dare he act this way in Chambord? Hehe, does he think that Chambord’s Laws of the Twelve Tables are jokes?”
After saying that, he turned and looked at that gloomy young man.
Now, this young man finally realized that something was wrong. Seeing how miserable his guard was, he knew that he ran into trouble. However, he was neither anxious nor afraid. He kept his composure and stared at Fei with a mocking smile on his face while threatening lights flashed in his eyes.
“Go back and inform the representative from your branch that this young master of yours will be executed tomorrow morning as soon as the first dash of sunlight shines on the Peak of East Mountain. He disturbed the market’s order, harassed a lady, allowed his subordinate to attack others, attempted to commit murder, and disrespected the king. According to the laws of Chambord, anyone who commits these five offenses will be punished with the death penalty.”
After saying that, Fei waved his hand and made the pressure that this Eight-Star Warrior was feeling go away.
Even though this warrior was able to move freely now, he was astonished by what he heard. He thought, “This man knows that Young Master is the son of Manager Nihat, but he is still this rule-abiding? Is he crazy?”
However, he didn’t dare to say anything. Even if he tried to defend his young master, he would just die. The difference in strength between them was just too big.
Since his opponent asked him to go and report, he knew that he was spared. He wasn’t in the place to worry about if there were still room to negotiate. If he wanted to save his young master’s life, he had to go and find the decision maker from the branch who came on this trip.
That Eight-Star Warrior turned around and was about to leave.
However, after he took two steps, he turned back around and asked as if he suddenly remembered something, “Sir... Who are you?”
Chapter 749: Departure (Part Two)
With a smile on his face, Fei turned around and winked at the four guards who were beaten up. Then, he turned back and said, “I’m King Alexander.”
The Eight-Star Warrior was a bit surprised, but he nodded and didn’t say anything. He then hand-signaled that gloomy young man, telling him to be patient as he was going to get help.
Then, he went down the stairs and left quickly.
Now, those four guards who were all bruised were shocked.
They looked at each other and saw the surprise and embarrassment in each other’s eyes.
“So, the little white face whom we thought is reckless and dares to steal the King of Chambord’s woman is the king himself. This...” They weren’t too afraid since they knew that the King of Chambord wasn’t going to do anything, but that impatient guard who said those words to Fei earlier was blushing.
Soon, the bylaw enforcement officers of Chambord received the report from the workers in the shop, and they quickly dashed over and arrested that gloomy young man.
The administrative system was very clean under the king’s strict monitoring, and the Justice Department of Chambord was extremely efficient. Since this case was something that the king was personally involved in, the process was even smoother. Chambord’s prison, [Little Black Room], had already reserved the most central cell for this gloomy and arrogant young man.
“You will regret this, Little King! You won’t know how you will be killed before tomorrow morning!”
This gloomy young man wasn’t scared at all, and he struggled and threatened the king with a burst of arrogant laughter that shouldn’t belong to a prisoner.
...
Fei stayed in this shop for less than 30 minutes before leaving.
Jessica’s cooking was great. She only prepared a few simple dishes, but they were all aromatic and delicious. However, Fei wasn’t in the mood to feast anymore. He ate enough to get rid of his hunger, and he chatted with the girl for a while. Then, the king walked out of the shop under the passionate escort of the four guards who were saved by him.
The arrival of the fleet of merchant caravans from the Villarreal Empire made Fei sense something strange.
Divisions of Soros’ Merchant Group in the high-level empires would rarely send people to a small place like Zenit.
“Why did a fleet of merchant caravans from the division of Soros’ Merchant Group in the Villarreal Empire come here? Even the son of a level 8 manager is here. This is a bit strange,” Fei thought to himself.
Fifteen minutes later, a cute blond boy who looked 12 years old but had a strong smell of liquor on him walked into Jessica’s shop. He had a pair of big, watery eyes, and it was enough to get any girl to hug him and rub his cheeks.
“My name is Arthur, and the king recommended me here to do temporary work.” The boy put on a pitiful expression and said to Jessica, “Pretty Sister, Arthur can’t even get enough food to eat and good clothes to wear. I also don’t have a job, and others make fun of me. You will keep me, right?”
This boy’s cute and naïve appearance with his pitiful expression was enough to charm any female. Since Jessica was very nice and kind, she was no exception.
“Wait, have I seen you before?” Jessica stared at Arthur in doubt.
She suddenly thought back to the little blond boy who almost bankrupted her pub at Dual-Flags City. That boy created an uproar in the city and defeated all the alcoholics in their best games. However, that kid dashed through the walls and disappeared, and Jessica didn’t know where he went.
The kid in front of her was just as cute as that boy, but the facial features such as the eyes and nose were different.
