Chapter 795: Arrival of the royal family
# Win-win special chapter.
Even though Ketrok walked very slowly to reach them, no one dared to escape from there because they knew it was impossible to escape.
“Now, you can go and meet your friend Holor in the otherworld.”
After saying that, Ketrok lifted his sword to kill Cohan.
“Sect leader Ketrok, if you want to kill me, then kill me, but I beg you not to harm my family.”
Cohan closed his eyes as he begged the sect leader Ketrok to let his family live.
“Those who want to rebel against my sect or any other sects, I will destroy everyone and everything related to them.”
Ketrok intentionally said those words for the five old men to hear because to overthrow the royal family, they need to be united, and only then can they be the rulers of the Zrochester province.
Just like the five great families, who wanted to always destroy the sects, the sects wished to destroy the royal family.
However, they were not fools like the family heads of the great families because they need to reach at least level 8 in their laws to go against the royal family.
Only then, there were some chances of destroying the royal family. However, they had long decided to wait until the day where the leaders of the top three sects reach level 10 in their laws.
“Ketrok, can you let them leave on my behalf?”
Just when the heavy fire sword was about to slash through Cohan, a majestic voice appeared from a distance, and soon, Stephen draton, along with his old ministers, appeared in their sights.
“Your majesty, but….”
Ketrok became enraged with the appearance of Stephen; however, he knew he was not a match for the old man beside Stephen.
“Don’t worry. I will make them compensate you with something good.”
Stephen didn’t wait for Ketrok to finish his words as he replied to him.
In the next moment, he walked towards the family heads and asked, “Are you willing to compensate the fire sword sect and the combat king sect?”
Since the assassin sect’s cultivators are yet to arrive, Stephen directly ignored them and asked the family heads about the compensation to the two sects present behind him.
“We will compensate the two sects, your majesty.”
Soon, everyone saw some hope with the royal family’s appearance, and after hearing Stephen’s words, they were even more confident in surviving their current premonition.
So, they didn’t hesitate to compensate the two sects.
“Good. Since there are four families here, everyone should leave one spirit stone mine, and those four low-level spirit stone mines will be equally shared between the two sects.”
Stephen didn’t wait for the family heads to say what they were willing to compensate; instead, he directly asked them to leave the rights of their single spirit stone mine.
‘Th..this….’
“What? Do you want to get killed in his hands?”
Stephen frowned when he saw the family heads were hesitant and asked with a scoff.
“No, no….your majesty. We are willing to give our spirit stone mine.”
Once they imagined Kestrok killing them in their heads, they didn’t hesitate any more and hurriedly nodded their heads.
“That’s it then. What do you say?”
Stephen draton looked at the sect leader Ketrok and the five old men from the Combat king sect and asked with a slight smile on his face as though he had done a great help for the sects.
“We have no problem.”
The combat king sect had no problem as the five old men instantly agreed because, in the Zrochester province, there were very few spirit stone mines. So, if they were getting two spirit stone mines, why would they reject it?
However, Ketrok cursed the royal family because he wanted to kill these families compared to getting the spirit stone mines. So that, in the future, they don’t have to bother about them.
“As you say, your majesty.”
However, he can’t openly go against the royal family because his fire sword sect is not powerful enough to go against the royal family.
So, he agreed to take the spirit stone mines.
“Good. Now, the great families can go back.”
Soon, Stephen nodded his head with a satisfied look on his face because everything went according to his plan.
‘As long as the great families live, the sects have to be wary regarding them. When someone is greatly surprised by something, he will try everything in his power to remove the suppression.’
Looking at the leaving family heads along with their family elders, Stephen continued to think in his heart, ‘Once, I spread today’s events, then let’s see the family heads will continue to bow their heads to the sects.’
“Old minister, take care of the abyss devil king.”
Next, Stephen looked at the abyss devil king, who was completely covered in the black blood, and ordered the old man beside him to take care of the devil king.
“Yes, your majesty.”
Soon, the old man took the abyss devil king and disappeared into the distance.
“Now, let’s kill the dragon.”
Since the battle between the top sects and the great families came to an end, Stephen looked at the dragon in the distance, which was attacking the barrier that was stopping it from entering the next town.
“Looks like I am late.”
Suddenly, a few black silhouettes appeared, and the leader of those silhouettes said with a slight smile on his face.
“Looks like the sect leader Gerg is not interested in the dragon blood.”
Seeing the sect leader Gerg, Ketrok scoffed with a lazy expression on his face.
“…”
Sect leader Gerg didn’t say anything as he remained silent.
“Sect leader Ketrok, there is no need to mock sect leader Gerg. Lately, he has many things to take care of. So, let’s not say anything.”
Stephen knew there were some problems with the assassin sect. So, he acted magnanimously towards the assassin sect.
‘Hmph’
Ketrok harrumphed and looked at the dragon.
“This time, I will allow you to have some share in the dragon’s dead body. The royal family will take 70 percent, and you three sects can have 10 percent each.”
Once again, Stephen acted as though he was the most generous king in history while saying those words.
‘Damn this, Stephen.’
‘At least, the old king was better than him. He would have given 20 percent for each sect.’
‘Just wait. The day I increase my law to level 10, that is the day your royal family ceases to exist.’
The leader of the three sects silently thought in their heads and waited for the day they overthrow the current royal family to become the true powers of the Zrochester province.
The thing is, the royal family suppresses the three sects. Because of that frustration, the three sects vent their anger and all other emotions on the five great families.
As for the five great families, they would bully the random no-name cultivators and normal people.
It’s a chain that never ends.
‘So, these are the top powers of the Zrochester province. They only care about themselves, and if someone comes in their way, they will kill them no matter how much they beg.’
Ajax was observing everything from the start and scoffed at the top powers of the Zrochester province.
