Chapter 858 - A Determined Woman

Just like that, the warriors from the temple had already set out to conquer Baymard.

One would think that the temple was the only enemy heading to Baymard.

But that conclusion was undoubtedly far from the truth.

.

--Priscel village, Western Region of Arcadina--

.

In the tiny village, several luxurious carriages and horses could be seen all around the place.

The contrast of it would make anyone who saw the scene baffled.

It was like seeing the latest vehicles in the slums.

But who did these carriages, wagons, and horses belong to?

Well, no one in the village knew.

They only knew that if they didn’t do what these intruders wanted, they’d be sent to the afterlife quicker than they expected.

The air was tense, and the whole place was moody.

It was as if the spirit of a grim reaper had passed over the village.

The place was deadly silent, with no children playing outdoors.

Everyone was working in absolute silence for fear of annoying the owners of the vehicles and horses.

The villages shivered with fright as they obeyed unquestionably.

It’s been 2 days since these intruders came in, and the villages had been turned into servants who weren’t allowed to sleep within their own homes.

That’s right!

These intruders made them sleep outside with no mattresses or beddings on the bare ground facing the night sky.

It was at this moment that many missed their soft Baymardian pillows, blanket and so on.

These invaders had taken over the entire village!

Everyone in the village had grievances within their hearts.

After all, they had already lost a few villagers who tried to stand up to these unwelcomed guests.

And many didn’t want their children, husbands, wives or other blood relatives to die.

They were hoping that these pesky intruders would leave sooner or later because they couldn’t possibly want to stay here forever, right?

.

"You there!

Where is my beef Ramen noodles?"

"I’m sorry mistress; I’m sorry mistress.

I’ll get it right away." Said a middle-aged woman who trembled and stuttered with fear.

The lady before her was just too scary.

She was a beauty, but why did she have evil-looking eyebrows?

It made her face look like a villain, and her arrogant personality wasn’t helping matters.

on the en

The villages all slept outside

Ex-Queen Eliza clicked her brunette hair and smiled pleasantly at the sight of the frightened lady who was running for her dear life.

Look at it!

Even though she wants a Queen anymore, she could still manipulate and control her way to the too if she wanted to.

She felt mighty proud, and this whole scene made her even more determined to re-enter the palace in future as Queen Mother.

She wanted everything under her grasp.

The feeling of commanding these lowlifes gave her a very satisfying feeling.

Was she a sadist?

She didn’t know.

All she knew was that it made her feel powerful to see others whimper beneath her.

She smiled and lowered her eyes to the village ladies who were busy massaging her feet.

Heh.

Power felt good.

With it, she could have everything that she wanted.

Eliza puffed her chest in satisfaction.

Soon, a burly man entered the room.

.

"Mistress, the few injured horses have been adequately taken care of.

Now, we can proceed with our journey."

"Good.

The earlier we get there, the earlier we can save my son.

Sylar!

I hope that the Venomous Butterfly Assassin Guild that you hired is good enough for the job."

Sylar patted his own chest reassuringly: "Mistress, without a doubt, they’ll be able to handle it.

That, I can bet with my life!

Mistress, even though they are 300 of them, it would be a piece of cake.

Mistress, we can only send in 300 because we don’t want to look too suspicious.

And these 300 will blend in the crowd and won’t go in at once.

Apart from the assassins, we are also going in with 3000 men for backup.

So we don’t have anything to worry about.

These assassins are highly ranked within tge empire with many accomplishments under their belt.

One of them had even sneaked into Deiferus’ palace and stolen some doc.u.ments for the former King Alec Barn before.

They could go into a place with thousands of guards and come out unscathed.

So you can imagine how powerful just a single assassin was.

Then what more of 300?

Their skill wasn’t to fight thousands of enemies single-handedly, but to sneak in understated and do a specific job.

So I’m sure that they’ll be able to sneak into the place and sneak back out with his Highness Connor."

.

Eliza felt even more confident while listening to the numerous feats of these so-called top assassins.

That’s right.

She just needed them to sneak Connor out and from there, they would flee back to their secret base in the Central part of Arcadina.

There was no way that she would allow that uncultured William to keep the throne.

How was he more qualified than her baby who grew up in the palace walls?

She didn’t believe that someone who didn’t receive education from the highest men in society could lose to a mere local champion.

Victory was within her grasp!

At the same time, she was still worried about her baby.

She had tortured people before and had made them wish that they were dead instead.

And now, she kept having sleepless nights due to all her worries.

Yes.

She was scared that they would do the same thing to her baby.

What if they gorged his eyes out and broke his fingers?

What if they sliced his private part off and forced him to eat it raw?

What if they made a small cut on his belly, took out his intestines and sprinkled several drops of alcohol on it?

What if they sliced off all his limbs?

The countless scenarios that passed through her mind almost made her lose her sanity.

Her body vibrated with fear as she clutched her heart.

’Baby, wait for me.

Mummy will rescue you.’

Eliza burned with determination and turned to her most trusted aide.

"Solar, how long before we get there?"

"Mistress, in 2 and a half more weeks, we should be there."

"Good."
