Chapter 1061 Music To Her Ears
When Lux arrived at the City of Krall, he didn't hesitate and led Aurora and Adeline directly to the Royal Palace.
He didn't even bother entering through the main entrance. He simply smashed his fist on top of the Palace, creating a hole that led directly to the throne room.
King Yvar didn't expect that someone would dare to act so boldly within his Domain.
However, the moment his gaze landed on the red-headed Half-Elf, a name that he didn't think he would say ever again escaped his lips.
"V-Vincent?" King Yvar muttered as his gaze landed on the Half-Elf's face.
However, after observing the invader's face for nearly half a minute, he realized that the Half-Elf only shared similar features with his deceased brother who had died many years ago.
It was at that moment that Aurora and Adeline descended from the hole on top of the ceiling, gently landing beside Lux.
"I see." King Yvar narrowed his eyes. "I understand now. This Half-Elf is that bastard's son. Since all three of you are here, is it safe to assume that Lennox, Hassan, and Kajus are already dead?"
"They're not dead," Lux replied. "At least, not yet."
The King snorted. "Useless dogs."
Lux arched an eyebrow as he looked at the arrogant King who still looked calm while sitting on his throne.
He thought that King Yvar would panic and beg for his life the moment he became aware that his subordinates had failed to capture them.
"Adeline, I'm glad that you have decided to return to my Kingdom," King Yvar ignored the Half-Elf and shifted his attention to the beautiful Elf, whom he had fallen in love with in the past. "If you promise to become my woman, I will make you my Queen. How about it?"
"Dream on!" Adeline replied hatefully. "I'd rather die than let you have me."
King Yvar smirked before shifting his gaze to Aurora.
"How about you?" King Yvar asked. "Would you like to be my Queen?"
"No," Aurora replied before walking toward Lux. "I already have my King."
The seductive beauty then hugged the Half-Elf from behind, pressing her body against him.
"Is that so?" King Yvar rested the side of his face over the palm of his hand. "It seems that both of you have a good relationship with this Half-Elf. I wonder if both of you will beg to become my women after I torture him."
Lux was genuinely surprised by the King's confident tone. It was as if he wasn't threatened by their sudden appearance.
"Do you know why Emperor Andreas, who is well-known for his strong desire to expand his Vahan Empire, doesn't dare to send his army into our lands?" King Yvar asked in a teasing tone.
"I'm sure that you're going to tell me the answer very soon," Lux replied.
Truth be told, he was also very curious as to why the Emperor of the Vahan Empire hadn't conquered the Fynn Kingdom despite the fact that it only had two Saints.
The Skystead Alliance had several Saints that could be mobilized at any given time. If they worked together, overpowering the Protectors of the Fynn Kingdom wasn't a big deal.
"The answer is because… this Kingdom has a Supreme," King Yvar sneered. "A Supreme that follows my every command."
"I see, so that is the case," Lux nodded his head in understanding.
Earlier, Lennox said that only the Bloodline of the Royal Family could rule the Fynn Kingdom.
Now, he knew why Lennox hadn't usurped King Yvar and was satisfied with his position as a mere Underling.
He also understood why the King could still act confident and arrogant in front of him.
Having a Supreme was indeed a good reason to act confident.
However, even if King Yvar could act arrogant towards other people because of his strong subordinate, his arrogance only looked comical in Lux's eyes.
"Yes, that is the case," King Yvar had a smug look on his face as he gazed at Adeline and Aurora. "Both of you still have a chance to become my women. If you do, I promise to keep this Half-Elf alive. What do you say?"
Adeline suddenly felt anxious after hearing the King's words. She knew that Lux had several Saints as his subordinates.
But a Supreme could easily fight multiple Saints at once.
Lux smirked before snapping his fingers.
Dozens of Doom Knight Gangbangers materialized in front of him and charged towards the King with their swords raised high.
The Half-Elf wanted to check if King Yvan was just spouting bullsh*t.
If he was telling the truth, then his Soldiers would be killed easily.
If not then the King would personally experience what it felt like to have his backdoor opened up.
When the Skeleton Gangbangers were only a few meters away from the King, all of them were cut into dozens of pieces.
The Golden Statue, which was holding a sword, behind the throne opened its eyes and glared at the people who had tried to kill the current King.
"Interesting," Lux said as he eyed the Golden Statue, which stood six meters tall with great interest.
"Kill him!" King Yvar ordered and the Golden Statue leapt towards Lux with its sword poised to strike.
Lux didn't move from his spot. Instead of dodging the Golden Statue's strike, he only opened his mouth and gave an order.
"Kneel."
King Yvar sneered after hearing Lux's words.
Only the rightful King of the Fynn Royal Family could command the Golem, so he watched with anticipation as the Golem swung its sword to slice the Half-Elf apart.
However, the blade strike paused mid-way, as if the Golden Statue was bound by invisible strings.
The Golden Statue struggled as if it was trying to break free from something, but even after two minutes passed, it still retained its position of slashing-mid-strike.
"W-What have you done?" King Yvar, who was feeling very confident earlier, couldn't help but stutter after seeing the Golden Statue stop moving. "What did you do to our Kingdom's Guardian?"
"Oh, I was just trying my luck to see if it was going to listen to me, or not," Lux replied. "It seems that I can't fully wrest its control from you since you are currently the King of this Kingdom. Even so, it also recognized my potential, so it is hesitant to follow your orders to kill me."
If Adeline was still doubting Lux's identity earlier, now, she was certain of who he was.
She then walked towards the Half-Elf and gave him a tight hug, pulling him close to her.
Lux didn't resist and allowed Adeline to do what she wanted.
"Come forth," Lux ordered as he summoned a dozen Doom Knight Gangbangers with a devilish smile on his face.
The dozen knights, who were clad in black armor, looked at Lux in unison, waiting for his orders.
"Go," Lux ordered. "It's Gang Bang Time."
The Skeletons then charged at King Yvar with sneers on their faces.
Since their Master ordered a Gang Bang, they would give the King a Gang Bang.
"Kill these things!" King Yvar ordered. "Protect me!"
The King's voice became high-pitched as he ordered the Golden Statue to protect him.
However, the Golden Statue didn't listen to him and remained where it was as if it didn't hear the King's words.
As the Guardian of the Fynn Kingdom, it had seen the horrible things that King Yvar had done to his people.
However, despite being strong, he was powerless to stop him.
It was a creature created by the Founder of the Fynn Kingdom, and he was made for one purpose only.
It was to follow the orders of its Creator's Bloodline.
This was the first time that it moved after many years of standing in the throne room.
If possible, it didn't want to serve King Yvar, but since he possessed his Creator's Bloodline, it was duty-bound to obey his orders.
But when Lux commanded it to kneel, the Golden Statue felt the Bloodline of its Creator inside Lux's body.
Although it was faint, the Bloodline was still there, which gave the Half-Elf the right to command it.
Seeing that there was someone who was a better fit to rule the Fynn Kingdom, the Golden Statue decided to override King Yvar's order, stopping its killing blow mid-strike.
However, since the crown of the Kingdom was resting on King Yvar's head, it couldn't betray him either.
Because of this, the Golden Statue did the only thing that it could do, and that was to temporarily ignore any order given to it.
It had no intention of getting into the fight between Lux and the King and planned to simply wait until their faceoff was over.
King Yvar's hateful cries of pain, anger, frustration, and disbelief echoed inside the throne room as the Doom Knight Gangbangers followed their Master's orders.
Lux had already pulled Aurora and Adeline away. He simply couldn't allow them to witness such a gruesome scene.
Even Adeline, who hated King Yvar to the bones, didn't have the courage to look at what was happening behind her.
She simply allowed Lux to drag her away while listening to the King's screams, which was like music to her ears.
