Ace Of Terrans

302 Dealing With The Rebellion.



Shi Lang’s calm reaction made the turtle unsettled. He raised his hand and the person behind him accessed the communicator. As soon as he checked the news, his huskie-like face revealed a stunned expression. He froze on the spot, Kito saw this and asked, “What is it?”

The person woke up from his daze and said, “Sire, this, you should see it yourself.”

With that said, the man projected the news telecast into the void and a holographic screen appeared in front of the people. The scene inside the ward was being displayed at this moment. Kito understood what was happening here, he glared at Shi Lang and said, “YOU DARE TO TRICK ME?”

Shi Lang shrugged his shoulders and said, “You say as if you did not try to trick me? I would have told you to have some shame but since you are about to die, it will not be necessary.”

This statement shocked everyone, they did not expect him to say such a thing under the scrutiny of so many people. Shi Lang did not wait for anyone to react and went on to speak, “You all know that ever since Cara took the throne, the status of living has changed, the people are being treated equally and everyone has the same opportunity. However, some people thought they were entitled to the throne and decided to rebel against the ruler.

They manipulated innocent people, and that was not it, they even went on to kill whoever stood in their way. The Empress of Arcadia, Cara, almost lost her life on a random asteroid floating in space. Do you all wish to go back to the lives you used to live before Cara came to your rescue?

Fine by me, but the left minister dared to touch the Terran team that came here for investigation. This sin will not be forgiven. I welcome every person in Arcadia who would like to defend him. Come and ask my sword if you can defend him and his cronies.”

His aura had undergone a complete change, it was like a storm waiting to rage on. Kito was flustered, he could sense the killing intention contained within the speech of this young Terran. He had no idea how to counter this beast.

Finally, he could not take it anymore and said, “Who are you to meddle in the business of the Arcadian Royal Court? You are not even an Arcadian, what right do you have to interfere?”

Shi Lang sighed and said, “I am Cara’s friend. That is why I have the right to help my friend in her time of need. After all, a friend in need is a friend indeed.”

Carc chuckled and said, “Well, Lang, put me down. Let me show you my skills.”

Shi Lang cast her a look and after shaking his hand, he placed her down. As Cara left his embrace, her aura changed. It was like a switch flipped inside her mind, from a young and naughty girl, she became a calm and cold leader.

She walked closer to the left minister and said while looking into his eyes, “You might be a criminal, but you have also accumulated some good deeds. I will now give you twenty-four hours to settle your affairs. After that, I will have your head rolling on the stairs under my throne. Leave, try all the means you have.”

Kito shivered, he was aware how cruel Cara could be when it came to dealing with betrayal and those who opposed her unreasonably. He knew that he was done for, let alone the empress, even the citizen of the empire might show him no mercy. As wise as he was, it was beneath him to beg her or try to formulate any stories. Kito was done for and he knew this fact better than anyone else.

The old turtle sighed and knelt on the ground, he said, “I accept the punishment.”

Shi Lang looked at the old turtle and then at Cara. The girl said, “I gave you twenty-four hours, before that, I will not make a move against you. Leave.”

Then she turned to Shi Lang and said, “Did you arrange all this? Call off the telecast, we need to move, there are urgent matters to deal with.”

Shi Lang nodded and sent out a message from his communicator and the reporters stationed in the distant locations turned off their cameras and began to report their comprehension of the event to the citizen. They were all aware that if they tried to play a diplomatic role, they will be criticized by the citizens, who saw this and knew what was going on.

In just a few minutes, the news spread like a wildfire, and the whole Arcadian Empire got to know about the rebellion and the attempt of coup de tat made by the left minister. While some people were happy that the plow failed. Those who were sitting in the higher chairs were worried that they will be implicated regardless of their connection to this incident.

The higher society of the empire was tamed by Cara using iron hand methods and she was simply unyielding to them. The left minister, could not have done this alone, so he must have accomplices, and these accomplices were now preparing to abandon the sinking ship.

It was just like the metaphor, if a ship was going to sink, the rats will be the first to jump off the board. However, Cara was not a fool, who did not know how to run the show. She had established her own secret divisions to keep a watch on these people just in case they try to overstep their boundaries.

Shi Lang and Cara left the place and they came back to the base where the rest of the people were being held captive. At the same time, Cara had passed down a decree, and the secret divisions under her control, or as she called it, Meow, had taken action.

They had started to round up the culprits, even a remotely related person was apprehended and taken prisoner for investigation. This action shocked the entire Arcadia. Overnight things changed, the only person who was able to sit at home was the Left Minister, Kito.

Cara did not take action against him as she has given her a twenty-four-hour time, but she did not spare anyone else. The proceedings were fast and effective. Every single one of the guilty people regardless of their role in this plow was subjected to harsh punishments. If the families tried to persuade the Empress, they were made to share the burden of the punishment.

Shi Lang was satisfied with this behavior. The majesty of the monarch was not to be trifled with. The accused were all called in and they were given the right to defend themselves, Cara had the whole process telecasted and made the trials public.

After twenty-four hours, seven big shots from the royal court were found guilty of murder, extortion, and treason. They were sentenced to death on the spot. Cara had taken out Zyra from the prison and the beast had broken free from the mind control and she was raring to kill a few people.

The task of execution was given to her and she completed it flawlessly. The method was so bizarre that it gave jitters to the strong-hearted and made the faint-hearted people faint directly. Shi Lang did not lift a finger from start to end, he just waited, because he was aware things will not end as simply as they might seem.

The left minister was not scared that day in the ward, his kneeling posture did not match the wisdom flashing in his eyes. Shi Lang could tell that this old turtle was going to use his brain to find a way out of this. As a turtle who had lived for probably a few hundred years this guy might have some cards hidden in his shell.

Shi Lang was waiting for him to put those cards on the table and had instructed OB-One to monitor the changes. This bot was simply omnipotent with a computer. The three people that came to Arcadia with Shi Lang were given a direct command to cultivate while they were on standby.

This may seem a bit too cruel, but it was also a chance of a lifetime. The first time he came to Arcadia, Shi Lang skipped the two initial realms of cultivation under the influence of the spiritual energy in the surroundings. He wished for his teammates to make advances similar to him as well.

The three people were obviously more than happy to follow this command, after all, they were aware of their weaknesses after the time they spent in the Galactic Showdown.

After Twenty-four hours, Cara called the right minister, General Shufi, and said, “General Shufi, I want Left Minister, Kito in the courtroom. I do not care whether he comes willingly or you drag him from his abode. You have an hour to complete this task.”

General Shufi bowed and said, “Your Excellency, it seems that the left minister is waiting for your summons outside.”

Cara nodded and said, “Call him in.”

The moves to extinguish the rebellion has been made.
