Chapter 781: How Can You Eat Such Delicious Food by Yourself?

Following the complete failure of the assassination attempt against Irina, the fact that Alex was still alive quickly became known through Rodu and beyond. Anyone in a position of power was made aware of this news, and the incident created a massive stir.

Alex was a symbolic existence in the Roth Empire. He was the invincible War God who guarded the empire’s borders, as well as the vastly renowned dragon-slaying warrior. He held an extremely high position in the hearts of the general public, and he was the pride of the human race.

With him around, even the giant dragons had to lower their proud heads to the humans, whom they had once regarded as mere ants.

Following Alex’s death three years ago, the entire empire was in grief. The citizens of the empire lined up in a procession that stretched for over 10 kilometers to mourn his passing, which was a clear indication of just how loved and revered he was.

Some were initially skeptical about whether Alex was dead, but they were eventually forced to believe it. After all, with Alex’s personality, there was no way that he could lie in hiding and do nothing for three years if he was still alive.

But who would’ve thought that Alex would return to them once again on another rainy night? Not only that, but he had announced his return to the entire world in the most emphatic fashion!

The invincible War God had returned, and this night was destined to be a sleepless one for many of the citizens of Rodu.

“Your Highness, Alex appeared and rescued Irina. Our plan has failed.”

A black shadow appeared outside a certain pavilion. He was soaking wet from the rain, giving him a rather disheveled appearance.

Sean looked into the distance for a long while before slowly turning around with a cold expression as he commanded, “Kill everyone involved and make sure there’s no evidence that can link me to this incident.”

Quine’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but he still immediately nodded in response before disappearing into the stormy night.

“Alex, you’re always foiling my plans. I let you leave that street alive three years ago for old times’ sake, but that really was a big mistake.” Sean looked out into the rain with a sinister expression on his face.

…

“Benson’s dead.”

On the top floor of the tallest building in the royal palace, a black shadow soundless appeared.

“Good.”

Andre cast his gaze out toward his empire, and a sense of pride suddenly welled up in his heart. “I’ve been waiting for this day for several decades. If the borders of the Roth Empire can become the borders of the Norland Continent before I pass away, my name will go down in history!”

The black shadow remained silent.

“It’s time to forge a new alliance with the elven race. Those idiots make for superb cannon fodder.”

Andre withdrew his gaze before heading downstairs.

…

“The ice cream is so delicious, but where did Father go? It would be a pity if I have to eat such a delicious cake alone.”

Amy was sitting in the kitchen with a forlorn expression, looking at the ice cream cake before her, which was missing a corner.

The ice cream cake carrier came with a cooling feature. Even though it couldn’t completely replicate conditions within a freezer, it was quite effective in slowing down the melting process. At the very least, the ice cream cake showed no signs of melting up to this point.

“Meow~”

Ugly Duckling walked in circles around Amy’s stool, looking up at the ice cream cake on the table with a burning desire in its eyes. It was a huge fan of ice cream, and it had thought that there would be no more ice cream here in Rodu. However, a massive chunk of ice cream even bigger than its own body was sitting on the table right at this very moment, and it had to be super delicious.

Amy looked down at Ugly Duckling with a serious expression, and said, “Father says that eating too much ice cream will make you fat. Ugly Duckling, you’re already so fat; if you keep eating, you won’t be far away from becoming a roast goose.”

“Meow!”

Ugly Duckling cowered in a horrified manner, but it still couldn’t repress its yearning for the ice cream on the table. It looked up at Amy with a pitiable expression, and tears were already swirling around in its eyes.

“Alright, but you can only have a small mouthful,” Amy conceded with a resigned sigh.

“Meow!!”

Ugly Duckling immediately began to rub its little head against Amy’s leg in excitement.

Amy pursed her lips before placing a small plate onto the ground. She picked up the knife on the table in a slightly cumbersome manner, then sliced off a small piece of ice cream and placed it onto the plate.

The triangular cake was covered in strawberry ice cream, and its defined layers were quite clearly visible on its cross-sectional face. There was also a small strawberry on top of the cake, and the aromas of milk and strawberries were wafting through the air, immediately making Ugly Duckling’s eyes light up.

It slowly made its way over to the plate, and then walked in a circle around it before extending a small paw to touch the cake tentatively. However, it withdrew its paw halfway to the cake before sniffing at it with its little nose. A human-like smile of elation then appeared on its face as it extended its little tongue to take a lick.

Right at this moment, a burst of golden light appeared in the kitchen.

Ugly Duckling faltered momentarily upon seeing this, following which two figures appeared in the room.

Splat!

One of the humanoid figures just so happened to land on its cake, completely flattening it. Ugly Duckling’s face was splattered with ice cream as it stared at the empty plate before it with a shell-shocked expression.

“Father! Big Sister Irina!”

Amy was filled with surprise and elation at the sight of the two figures that had just appeared in the room.

Mag was the one who had landed on the ice cream cake, and he had to catch the table to prevent himself from slipping over. He looked down to discover a flattened slice of ice cream and a resentful Ugly Duckling looking up at him. A hint of guilt welled up in his hear as he withdrew his gaze in a rather awkward manner. He turned to Amy, and his expression immediately softened as he smiled, and said, “We’re back, Little Amy.”

The battle that had taken place just then was actually quite brief, but it had been extremely perilous.

The battle with Benson had been fraught with peril, and that black shadow that had appeared on the fifth street in the end was most likely an unfathomably powerful being from the royal palace. There had been rumors circulating of such a being existing within the royal palace, but no one had ever seen him in action, so even Alex wasn’t sure of his ability to defeat him in battle.

In any case, that mysterious figure was most likely one of the main reasons why Andre had reigned over the empire for so long.

What he was sure of was that if he had actually killed Josh, it would’ve been extremely difficult for him to escape from the fifth street after losing all of his power.

However, through this event, he was able to confirm something: Andre was definitely now aware of the fact that Alex was still alive, but he had no intention of killing Alex. Mag wasn’t surprised that this was the case. After all, a dead Alex was far less valuable to the Roth Empire than one that was still alive.

As such, Mag was feeling quite fortunate that he had been able to survive that prior ordeal.

His top priority now was to think of a way to dodge all of Irina’s questions…

Each and every one of those questions felt like a trap, and Mag didn’t dare to answer them in fear for his own safety.

“Xiao Mi…” A gentle also appeared in Irina’s eyes as she made her way toward Amy with the black cat cradled in her arms. She then adopted a serious expression, and asked, “How could you each such delicious food by yourself?!”
