Chapter 509 We Are Being Attacked!!
"We are being attacked!!"
"What!? Who dares!?"
"Fuck you! Stop shouting! Prepare for war! Send all the Cultivators before Master Stage Cultivators away! They would only get in the way."
"But how did they appear right in front of the Palace? Why didn't we hear any reports before? Also, how many of them are there?"
"There are 9 of them. Now go, quick!"
"…"
The soldier suddenly turned silent, he stared at another soldier with a blank look on his face and questioned,
"9? Seriously? Is it a prank or something?"
"You bastard-"
The other soldier wanted to answer him, however suddenly,
"You bastards! You still have the time to talk around like that!? Keep your feet moving, or I'll make sure you will die before the enemy even reaches you!"
"G-G-General Phorus!"
The soldier's eyes widened in horror and surprise.
If the General, one of the strongest beings in the Kingdom himself has appeared, this was definitely not a prank.
The Soldier's body trembled in fear.
His friend, however, grabbed him from the side and started running away.
"Don't take those bastards lightly, there might be only 9 of them, however, all of them are King Stage Cultivators."
"!!!"
The Soldier's eyes widened in surprise.
He felt like his eyes would pop out today by how much surprise he has been receiving.
"N-Nine K-King Stage Cultivators? W-Which Kingdom is attacking us?"
He questioned.
"We do not have any information about that, we are currently unprepared, the Shadow Unit is already talking with Princ- Queen Evane, you only do what you have been told and bring away all the Soldiers who are below Master Stage Cultivators and prepare them.
If 9 King Stage Cultivators have attacked, the rest of the army must be near as well.
It might even be a coup from one of the nobles, be prepared for anything."
The soldier instructed.
The other soldier nodded, a determined look appeared on his face and he reorganized himself.
…
On the other hand, Keeve and Reeve appeared in front of Evane's room and reported,
"Queen Evane, 9 unknown King Stage Cultivators are attacking us, currently, we only have 7 King Stage Cultivators including you and Lady Iria."
Lady Iria, or Iria Skyfall was Ricardus's strongest wife, however, she was not one of those 'lucky' women to bear the King's children in their one-night session, of course, Iria didn't care about it either, she only pursued cultivation and if it weren't for her family forcing her to marry the King, she would have stayed unmarried for her entire life.
"We can ask Lady Astaria's help to deal with all of them, however, I believe many people would have their eyes on this situation, if Lady Astaria appear, things might get worse because of the Treaty.
I suggest calling for help from all the Duke Houses and the Academy, if we add their 4 King Stage Cultivators, we would have 11 Cultivators, that would be more than enough to deal with those bastards and prepare to defend against the main army."
Reeve reported quickly.
However, unlike him, Evane didn't look in hurry at all.
She gently placed the tea she was drinking on the table and stood up,
A smile then appeared on her face and she spoke,
"Let's go and welcome them."
Reeve didn't understand what she was trying to say, however, since Evane had already walked out of the room, he and Keeve followed her in.
Soon, the three of them appeared in front of those 9 masked King Stage Cultivators.
They weren't alone, along with them, more than 20 Expert Stage Cultivators and 50 Grand Master Stage Cultivators were standing in front of those masked cultivators, looking at them with wary looks on their faces.
That was not it, the other 2 King Stage Cultivators of the Shadow Unit, Lady Iria and General Phorus were there as well, prepared to fight against these people who had suddenly appeared in front of them.
To be able to prepare 7 King Stage Cultivators and so many Expert and Grand Master Stage Cultivators in a matter of minutes, it showed how strong, Skyfall, the strongest Kingdom of the World was.
It was not a force a mere 9 King Stage Cultivators could defeat.
However, even though they were standing against so many cultivators who were ready to take out their swords and kill them, the 9 King Stage Cultivators didn't look worried at all.
Their body postures looked rather calm.
This made the Kingdom Soldiers frown.
Do they have some sort of plan?
They all wondered in their mind.
Tension in the air continued to rise.
Then suddenly,
*Step* *Step*
Evane stepped forward.
The soldiers turned silent and observed the woman, who would soon become the next Queen of this Kingdom.
They waited for the Queen to address these 9 Masked Cultivators, however,
*Step* *Step* *Step*
Contrary to their expectation, Evane continued to walk towards these masked cultivators.
"Queen Evan-"
Reeve wanted to call out, however, Evane suddenly raised her hand, signaling her to stay silent and continued to walk.
'Is she planning to challenge all of them alone?'
General Phorus thought of something absurd.
He then shook his head and sighed,
'She is still a child, she might be a gifted cultivator, however, she is not mature enough…'
He then glanced at Lady Iria and noticed that she was looking at him.
She had the same thought in him.
𝑓r𝘦𝘦𝘄eb𝒏𝙤vel.c𝙤𝙢
The two of them nodded at each other and prepared to defend Evane once things get worse.
The other King Stage Cultivators, including Reeve and Keeve, prepared for the same as well. Some Expert and Grand Master Stage Cultivators were even prepared to sacrifice their life to protect the future queen.
*Step* *Step* *Step*
The closer Evane walked toward the masked cultivators, the tenser the atmosphere got.
*Step*
Then, once she was an arm's length away from the masked cultivator, Evane stopped.
The Kingdom cultivators prepared their weapons, but suddenly,
"!!!!"
Their eyes widened in surprise.
Evane Skyfall, the Future Queen of the Kingdom, suddenly hugged one of the masked cultivators right in front of all the soldiers.
