Chapter 1347 - 889: Covenant_4
Chapter 1347: Chapter 889: Covenant_4
The entire royal palace, George III’s study has vanished into thin air, as if completely erased, yet the other buildings of the palace, even all the other people, suffered no casualties.
Only George III is confirmed to have been assassinated!
Everyone heard only the phrase ’I am here to assassinate the dog emperor...’ and then nothing followed!
By the time the Imperial Guards arrived, George III had already met his end!
This sudden turn of events came as Audrey was praying to inform The Fool.
It left Klein, who was doing his final preparations, adjusting his own posture, completely dumbfounded.
He was fully prepared, had covered all kinds of scenarios, with clear divisions of tasks.
Even the potential interference from the Angel of Death had been accounted for, with someone filling that gap.
All set with determination, even resolved to embrace death, willing to pay any price to stop this godhood ritual.
Then suddenly the news came of George III’s demise...
At first, Klein felt it was fake.
It was a trick, a diversion while secretly completing the ceremony.
George III was using a false death to hide in the mausoleum, aiming to initiate the god-making ceremony.
But the more he thought about it, the more it seemed wrong...
"This Black Emperor god-making ceremony requires a royal title, his own realm, and his own decrees, right? This..., if the people believe he has passed away, wouldn’t the ceremony surely fail? Would he really dare to gamble like this?"
Klein was feeling somewhat bewildered.
No matter how cautious one is in preparing for the godhood ritual, it’s never too much!
Because they knew the difficulty of attaining godhood, Klein and his team chose the time to interrupt the godhood ceremony.
But what is happening now...
Almost as soon as Klein received the news, vines dangled from above, as Bernadette also appeared at Klein’s home.
Together with her was Witch Trissy Chick.
Clearly, they were both here to discuss this matter.
All three held a resolve to face death, all had thoughts of sparing no cost, yet the result was this absurd intelligence...
"Where is our Angel of Death?"
Bernadette asked directly.
The guy who previously boasted he would block the Angel of Death and save the situation was nowhere to be seen.
And then George III was rumored to be dead!
"He said he went out for a walk..."
Klein looked at the empty teacup from Tao Yu’s afternoon tea, also finding it hard to hold back his sarcasm.
Did you stroll right into the royal palace?
Before Tao Yu acted, they indeed did not expect that this self-proclaimed Angel of Death would be so brazen.
Originally, they felt his straightforwardness in the previous meeting was already quite blunt.
But now, unexpectedly, they realized they had still underestimated him!
This wasn’t simply bluntness...
However, in retrospect, although it was indeed reckless to the point of making one’s hair stand on end, the timing was right, with only George III in the palace as the Sequence One Angel!
Though the Augustus Family had invited many external help, it’s certain that their most trusted individuals were from their own family.
Thus, the strong within the family would surely disperse to guard key points!
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
Yet at the same time, the safest moment can also be the most dangerous moment!
The guy who vanished for a long time and showed up again truly demonstrated the Assassin’s Way.
Whether unintentionally or intentionally, this seems like a fairly perfect ’assassination’...
"So... what do we do now?"
Trissy felt a bit at a loss at the moment; after all the revenge preparations and even ready for divine descent, she ended up playing a minor role.
"Let’s wait for him to come back and ask about the situation."
"Doesn’t he have a messenger?"
"No..."
Just then Bernadette’s mysterious ritual was interrupted, as Tao Yu gently knocked on the door and walked in, casually setting down his hat and scepter.
"Did you kill George III?"
Klein couldn’t help but be the first to ask.
"Was anyone else around? I saw just him alone in the royal palace, and killed him as a matter of course. Here, I even kept it warm."
Tao Yu put down the food container he was holding.
"After eating, let’s go claim the inheritance, considering the uniqueness of the True God, there should be quite a few aiming for it..."
Supporting George III in attaining godhood was one thing.
But now that he had passed away and lost his value, many former allies might turn into vultures...
