Chapter 1531 - 1530: Terror!

I quit!

Upon hearing Heaton's words, the current Elizabeth IV's face suddenly displayed an expression of utter astonishment. Looking at Heaton before her, she coldly spoke, "Heaton, what did you say?!"

Between the words, Elizabeth IV's voice was deep and sinister. It must be known that Heaton was someone she greatly trusted, and now Heaton suddenly declared his resignation, making Elizabeth IV's face extremely unsightly.

"Respected Her Majesty the Queen"

Upon hearing Elizabeth IV's retort, Heaton cleared his throat. He looked at Elizabeth IV before him and solemnly said, "For the sake of my life and safety, I hereby formally inform you that I, Heaton, will resign from all positions within the European Federal Authority!"

Between the words, Heaton's voice was firm, his words filled with resolve as he looked at Elizabeth IV.

"Heaton!"

Upon hearing this, the current Elizabeth IV slammed the table fiercely and said, "You should not be so presumptuous! Do you really think you are important?!"

"Let me tell you! You leave and countless people will vie to replace you; this is not your bargaining chip against me!"

At this moment, Elizabeth IV was truly angry. Her words were full of anger as she looked at Heaton before her.

"I did not come to threaten you, Her Majesty the Queen"

Heaton looked seriously at Elizabeth IV before him and said, "I just don't want to risk my life over such matters!"

As he spoke, Heaton's voice was low as he looked at Elizabeth IV, his gaze resting upon her, and he said lightly, "Moreover, Your Majesty, I must advise you to think carefully before acting. I certainly don't want to witness Elizabeth V's succession ceremony shortly after my resignation!"

Between the words, Heaton's expression carried a hint of somberness, his eyes full of caution as he looked at Elizabeth IV.

"What do you mean?!"

Upon hearing Heaton's words, Elizabeth IV angrily demanded, "Speak clearly!"

Elizabeth IV understood very well what Heaton was implying; after all, as the Queen of the United Kingdom, she was no simpleton.

She asked to gauge Heaton's mindset, curious why he would say such things.

"My meaning is simple"

After hearing Elizabeth IV's words, Heaton adjusted his clothes and said, "I am still young; I do not wish to be inexplicably assassinated in my own home!"

The Assassin Alliance is an organization established for over a century, with countless kings having perished at their hands throughout history. After hearing Lu Yu's statement and witnessing Elizabeth IV's attitude, Heaton immediately chose to withdraw.

Not wanting to be assassinated at home!

Upon hearing these words, Elizabeth IV felt a sudden surge of panic and fear as she looked at Heaton.

Heaton's words struck Elizabeth IV's heart profoundly, and as she looked at Heaton before her, she was momentarily at a loss for words.

Noticing Elizabeth IV's expression, Heaton nodded and turned, heading towards the door.

"Bastard!"

As Heaton left, Elizabeth IV roared in anger and swept her arm across the table!

Crash!

Instantly, accompanied by a light noise, everything on the table fell to the ground, producing piercing sounds upon impact.

"Heaton, you speak with great daring!"

Elizabeth IV shouted loudly, her dignified appearance dissipating into a menacing and terrifying demeanor, "I refuse to believe this Assassin Alliance is so powerful as to..."

Bam!

As Elizabeth IV spoke coldly, instantly the glass window shattered, and simultaneously a dagger was embedded into her tabletop.

The moment the dagger struck the table, sunlight refracted off it brightly, producing an intimidating sharpness.

Hiss!

Witnessing the scene, Elizabeth IV couldn't help but gasp in shock, her gaze filled with terror as she looked at the dagger on the table.

Kensington is her residence, and witnessing a dagger embedded in the table, it was the greatest warning about her safety.

In her own residence, with a dagger pierced through layers of skilled guards and embedded in the table before her, it truly gave Elizabeth IV a fright!

The table was merely meters away from her, and had the dagger's force been greater or directly aimed at her, she would have become a ghost beneath that blade!

At that moment, Elizabeth IV felt the hand of death had narrowly brushed past!

Sigh!

Thinking about this, Elizabeth IV exhaled slowly, glanced at the dagger on the table, and after calming, reached to pull it out.

"Huh? What's this?"

As Elizabeth IV prepared to pull out the dagger, she suddenly noticed a note underneath it on the table.

The small note, folded and pinned beneath the dagger, appeared to be a letter.

"A note?"

Noticing the note beneath the dagger, Elizabeth IV's eyes flashed with doubt. She slowly extracted the note, unfolding it in front of her, and her eyes widened in shock, filled with tremors.

On the note before her was a line that read: The Assassin Alliance sends its regards!
