I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 887 - The Great Pretender

Who?

Who was it?

Who took away his moment?

Come out now!

.

Ulrich always went crazy when he revered how close he was to slitting Winston's throat.

Winston, on the other hand, felt like the heavens really wanted him to survive.

Could this be a sign that he was truly meant to be king?

Thinking like that, the pain he felt in his body earlier on seemed to have faded away into thin air.

The duo both pushed the bodies over them and stood upright to see what miracle, or demon in Ulrich's case, had interrupted their fight.

And lo and behold, what they saw made them freeze.

As it right on cue, Henry and the masked Landon, strolled in amidst the chaos as if they weren't the culprits.

Of course, several soldiers were already around them, as they stood a little hard of them while pointing their weapons to the enemy before them.

"Bastard!

What are you doing here?"

"Henry wouldn't have even noticed that his brothers were here amidst the countless men, but Winston just had to explain loudly at the top of his voice.

For Winston, this was a heavy blow.

Not to talk of Ulrich.

Seeing how casual Henry was, how could they not be pissed?

The guy even came in while chewing on an apple.

What did he think this was?

Here they were busting their asses off and killing each other, thinking that there were no more competitors in the Capital.

And fighting for their lives with just one more person left for them to defeat, Henry shows up in full vigour without so much as a scratch on him.

They on the other hand, had been fighting for hours and wasting their stamina here and there.

Who wouldn't get angry?

It was like they were running to the finish line with all their strength while he just slept on the ground and miraculously happened to cross the finish line.

Swindler!

.

Ulrich almost puked blood when he saw Henry's face.

He knew it!

Something deep within him warned him that this bastard might try something.

But for several weeks now, none of his spies both in and out had reported any news of Henry being remotely close to the Capital.

He knew when Joffrey came; he knew when Winston came... In short, he knew everything about everyone.

Even when he was away from the Capital, he still knew what was going on here.

That's how powerful his intel is.

So if Henry was around these last few days, why didn't he know of it?

Or did Henry just arrive at the Capital now by coincidence?

No, no, no, no.

What sort of dumb ass luck was that?

No one was that lucky in life.

So it meant that Henry might've been around but had bribed his spies to hide things from him.

He knew it!

Ever since the bastard used hallucinating powder to fool his men that one fairy Godmother destroyed hundreds alone, he knew that Henry was dangerous.

F***!

Just like the other supposedly good-for-nothings around the continent, Henry was just like them.

Like Landon, Sirius, and all the rest, he was just a big pretender who had his greedy eyes on his throne.

Hmph!

He would never have anything over to anyone, not even if his father came back to live and demanded the crown back.

How could he give up his birthright?

All he had to do was hold them off until his men outside penetrate the palace.

And in about 30 more minutes or so, they should be here.

Of course, he didn't care if Henry had penetrated the palace with more men than he currently had outside.

For them to make it this far means that some of them also actively joined the battle to fight their way in.

He said some because the way he looked at Henry, the bastard probably didn't fight at all.

Anyway, Henry should've lost some men before coming here.

Additionally, he knew that Winston had men coming as well.

So if he could somehow trick Winston into making his men put their attention on Henry's men, then this problem would be more than solved.

All he had to do was survive until they got here.

Thinking like this, Ulrich's smile turned broader while looking at Henry.

So what if this bastard came now, sooner or later? He would kill him anyway.

.

Winston on the other hand was turning red in rage.

"You!

You have no right to be here!

Father would've never wanted you here.

Get out!

Go away!"

Henry chuckled and chewed on his apple a bit more, completely ignoring Winston.

"Are you deaf!

Didn't you hear what I said?"

Henry scrunched his brow and looked around before turning to Landon again.

"Did you hear something?"

"Nah... It's probably just the wind."

"You!!!!!"

Poor Winston almost had a heart attack from it all.

Ulrich's eyes turned dark when he saw Henry's attitude.

Was this still the cowardly bit who they used to whip best mercilessly?

For a moment, he almost didn't recognize Henry.

Well, the bit sure had grown.

The last time he saw Henry was 14.

At that time, he came of age and was sent to another city.

Since then, no one bothered about this useless good-for-nothing... At least until recently, when Ulrich started feeling uneasy about him.

Henry scoffed at his brothers while secretly firming his heart.

They didn't know, but his heart almost leaped out of his chest just now.

Winston and Ulrich had felt a very deep shadow in him for a long time now.

And over the years, he truly tried to get over that shadow.

But for some reason, with Landon here, he felt mighty, as if he didn't need to be afraid of them anymore.

He wasn't ashamed to say it.

Amongst the royals within Deiferus and probably within the entire continent, he was undoubtedly the weakest in courage.

Of course, he has been trying to change.

And hopefully, step by step, he would leave his older self and become a man worthy of his people.

But things like this just didn't happen overnight.

Nonetheless, he clenched his fists and showed his most arrogant side towards these so-called brothers of his.

Now, he'll show them just how tough he could be.,
