Chapter 147 I will definitely take revenge
Manager Kiin cried: “Duke Lathel, what happened in the gem library just now has made my master, Amleth, extremely angry.”
“She said that if I didn’t make you happy, she would… kill me. Cut off my head and hang it in front of the library door.”
Lathel frowned: “Why is she so cruel? Is there no law here?”
“Duke Lathel, if the law can control my master, then something like what happened in the gem library would not have happened.” Kiin said while crying.
“Duke Lathel, please… Please accept this gift. If you feel it’s not enough, I can give you all the gems in the library. As long as you…”
“Enough! Enough!” Lathel sighed and used one hand to hold his forehead. He felt an extremely painful headache: “Move this rock into the garden; I have forgiven you.”
Manager Kiin put his head on the ground: “Thank you, Duke! Thanks! Thank you, Duke, for forgiving me.”
Then, he took out a black card and gave it to Lathel: “Duke, this is a super super super VIP customer card.” .𝒎
“Hehehe… as long as you use this card to enter any gem business managed by me, you will receive a 50% discount; besides, you will also be treated like a senior manager.”
“This…” Lathel didn’t want to accept it, after all, he didn’t want to have anything to do with Amleth.
“Duke, don’t refuse, listen to my explanation.” Manager Kiin showed the usual smile of merchants: “You are a magician after all, right?”
Lathel nodded.
Kiin continued: “Hehehe… Duke Lathel, cultivating requires a lot of resources, the most indispensable of which are gems and elemental stones.”
“Instead of having to buy elemental stones at high prices at other stores, why not use this card to buy at stores I manage?”
“Not only would you receive a 50% discount, but I also guarantee that in the store I manage, the quantity and quality of gems are much higher than in other places.”
“Besides, the gem library also organizes auctions, you can also auction to get what you want and still enjoy a 50% discount.”
Hearing that, Lathel felt a little excited. Kiin was right, he really needed elemental stones and energy crystals for Cauldron.
And the gem store is where he would need to frequently visit.
“Duke Lathel, I know you don’t want to meet my master. This card was given to you on my own initiative, it is not from my master.”
“Duke, I am just showing you my sincerity.”
Lathel glanced around, then secretly took Kiin’s card and put it in his space bag while pretending like nothing had happened.
He coughed and said: “Uhm! I know your sincerity. Okay, I will accept this gift, you can go back with peace of mind.”
Manager Kiin smiled with satisfaction, bowed to Lathel, then left.
Lathel sighed. Even though he was a Duke, he didn’t have to use his own strength to get this position.
Besides… he didn’t want to bother Ryne too much. She had already given him a noble status, helped him study at Karol Magic Academy, and even gave him a lot of money.
That’s why he didn’t want to bother her. Lathel promised himself that, while he was not useful to Ryne, at least he would not cause any trouble for her.
He sighed and took Charlotte into the castle to rest, as it had been a long day.
Although he also wanted to continue taking Charlotte around the city, after seeing Benutt cut off and kill Benatt, he was no longer interested in walking.
Besides, Charlotte seemed to be very sleepy, she dreamily followed him like a puppet, making him feel a bit heartbroken.
‘When will Charlotte stop sleeping like this?’
…
In the evening, Lathel woke up after taking a short nap, and this made him more comfortable.
He sat up and saw Charlotte still sleeping. He knew that her sleep seemed to last longer than usual.
Lathel adjusted Charlotte’s position, then covered her chest with a blanket and went out.
As soon as he left the room, Lathel met Akna: “Heh?! What’s up?”
Akna bowed her head and said: “Young master, master will not return today.”
“Why?”
“It seems like there is something very important that master needs to resolve. Besides… It’s very chaotic outside right now. Young master, please stay inside the castle and don’t go out.”
Hearing that, Lathel frowned, however, he still nodded and said: “I know. But… what is?happening.”
“Sorry, young master. I’m still not sure what is happening, but I believe this trouble will end quickly.”
Lathel nodded and said: “So… Can we walk around the garden?”
“Of course, young master. As long as you don’t leave the garden of this castle, it’s okay.”
Lathel: “…”
He felt that the scope Akna was talking about was very, very wide. The castle’s garden seemed to be a grassland, and even the mountain in the distance was about four kilometers away.
Even if he rode a horse for a walk, it would take more than a day to leave this place.
Lathel suddenly remembered something. He asked: “Akna, do you have information about a girl named Amleth?”
Hearing that, Akna was a bit surprised. She nodded and said: “Young master, are you interested in that woman?”
Lathel quickly waved her hand and explained: “No! No! It’s just… There’s some trouble going on between me and that girl. I don’t want to be in a passive situation, that’s why…”
Akna nodded: “I understand, young master.”
Then, she took out a file from her space bag and handed it to Lathel.
“Young master, this is all the information we have gathered about Amleth. If you don’t mind, I can read them to you.”
Lathel saw a stack of documents more than 20 cm thick and was startled: “Is this… all the information about Amleth?”
“No!” Akna shook her head: “Amlethhas many secrets, this is just the information we have collected.”
Lathel held the stack of documents and was extremely surprised: “You guys are amazing. To be able to collect and store this much information, you must have worked very hard.”
Hearing that, Akna felt a little happy in her heart. She put a rare smile on her face and said: “Master, it’s not hard at all. In addition, if… if you… if you want, I am always ready to serve you.”
Lathel tilted his head in confusion and looked at her.
Akna didn’t say anything more; she just pointed at her mouth with her finger and said, “I can serve you with my mouth, young master.”
Lathel: “…”
…
At Benutt’s clan, a ferocious fire engulfed the entire castle, and a group of people dressed in black continuously moved around the place.
On the ground, many bodies were lying everywhere. Inside the castle, screams filled with pain and misery echoed.
The people inside were feeling the pain as the brutal fire burned. They wanted to run outside, but as soon as they left the castle, they would be killed immediately by the people in black.
The black-clad men were like butchers, guardians of the fiery hell. As long as anyone escapes from the fiery hell, another hell is waiting for them.
Inside the castle, Benutt, with a body full of wounds, carried a young man to the warehouse.
The young man was about 170cm tall; he had a handsome face according to European male standards, blue eyes, a high nose, and brown hair.
He also had many wounds on his body, but his condition was better than Benutt’s because his body did not have any fatal wounds.
“Dad! Where are we going? Why don’t we rush out, risk our lives with those bastards, and open a way to save our entire clan?”
The man spoke quickly, his eyes filled with anger.
“Are you stupid?!” Benutt shouted: “Benotte, do you know who our enemy is? It’s Amleth’s ‘Black Butterfly’ team.”
“They are all bloodthirsty assassins. You are just a low-level swordsman; how can you resist their power?”
“But…” Benotte was about to say something.
Benutt gasped and said: “Benotte, listen carefully; I have another way to escape.”
Benutt brought Benotte into the warehouse, then went to the corner of the room, where a pile of objects and wooden boxes were being crushed.
“Help me, push these things out.”
Benotte didn’t hesitate, he rushed up to push the wooden boxes out, revealing a featureless floor. .𝒎
Benutt muttered a spell, and then a magic circle appeared on the floor.
At this moment, the floor suddenly separated, revealing a small passage.
“This is…”
Before Benotte could finish his sentence, Benutt, standing behind him, pushed him into the aisle.
Benotte lay in the small secret passage, raised his head to look at Benutt, and shouted: “Father! Come inside, we’ll…”
“Run!”
“Heh?!” Hearing Benutt’s words, he felt confused: “Why?”
Benutt smiled, his smile full of pain: “Benotte, among your brothers and sisters, your talent is the highest, and your personality is also the best.”
“You must live; you must become stronger to avenge me for our family.”
“At least, if you can’t take revenge, you can get married and have many children to revive our family.”
“But… dad…” Benotte couldn’t control his emotions; tears flowed out like two streams: “Let’s go together. We will…”
“No, Benotte, you listen to me.” Benutt gasped: “I… I can’t live anymore. Even if I go with you… I can’t continue to live.”
“Besides… if those people don’t find my body, they will easily find you.”
“Benotte, remember… Our enemies are Amleth and Lathel. Remember this well…”
He finished speaking, took out a bracelet, and gave it to Benotte: “This is our family’s treasure. It contains all the magic and skills that our family has collected.”
“Inside there are all the assets I have accumulated, please take them.”
“No! Father… I want us to go together.”
“Shut up!” Benutt shouted, interrupting Benotte’s words: “Benotte, you are the last hope of this family, go away.”
Having finished speaking, without waiting for Benotte to respond, Benutt canceled the magic, and the floor returned to its original state.
He tried to cover that place with wooden crates. Benutt grabbed the wall and tried to stand up when a voice rang out from the door: “You made me look for a long time, Benutt.”
Benutt heard that sound and just laughed helplessly, then…
Whoosh!
The wind whistled, Benutt’s head left his neck, and it flew high and fell to the ground.
The mysterious man in black said contemptuously: “Trash. This is the consequence of daring to make my master angry.”
That mysterious person turned around to leave, but he suddenly stopped walking and turned his head to look towards the wooden crates.
That person looked for a moment, then completely left.
Below the ground, Benotte bit his arm so hard that it bled to keep from screaming in anger. Tears flowed continuously, and his eyes were filled with blood.
“Lathel… Amleth… I will definitely take revenge…”
“I swear… I will kill your entire clan… chew your bones, and drink your blood.”
“Avenge my Bathetto family.”
