Chapter 1799 - The Heart To Kill

Michael brought the powerhouses from Chaos City closer to Josh. If Josh died here today, the Norland Continent would certainly be embroiled in conflict.

The powerhouses of the various tribes also had their guard up.

The forest troll powerhouses also ran towards Josh.

There had been many suspicious points regarding the assassination on that rainy night, but there were always rumors related to Josh.

Alex had slain Westin today, and now he was pointing his sword at Josh. This seemed to have proven everything.

"I will not kill you today. I will spare your measly life for you to go back and tell Andre that if he chooses to embrace war, I will go to his palace and set off a firework even more brilliant than this." Mag scoffed, and said, "As for your life, I will claim it one day."

After Mag said that, rays of light shot out from the Tian Du sword, and passed by the powerhouses towards Josh as they grazed past his face.

Blood splattered everywhere, and one of Josh's ears flew before a bolt of lightning disintegrated it.

The Tian Du sword morphed into a bolt of lightning, and returned to Mag's hand.

"No!" Josh screamed as he covered his ear. He held his head in fear as he hid behind a knight, screaming, "Save me! Save me!!!"

Mag glanced at Josh, and left, with the other powerhouses watching him with fear and respect.

The knights came back to their senses only then. Their backs were already drenched with perspiration.

If Mag wanted to kill Josh just now, they would not even be able to stop him.

Michael stopped in his tracks. He watched the purple-striped griffin disappear on the horizon, and let out a sigh of relief. To be able to keep in mind the big picture at this juncture, he was Alex indeed.

"It's not easy to be a prince in the future," Douglas lamented as he watched Josh screaming and trembling with fear.

"He has the heart to kill if he isn't going to end it easy for him. Alex has become more ruthless compared to the past," Louis said as he clicked his tongue.

Mag lifted a corner of his cape so that the maiden in his embrace could poke her face out for some fresh air.

Perhaps it was because of the height, but the maiden grabbed his waist rather nervously. However, she was looking around curiously with her clear eyes.

"Ah Zi, go straight to the Blue Grassland," Mag said as he patted Ah Zi's back softly.

The crisis in Chaos City had been averted. It was time he went back to pick Amy and the rest home while he thought of a suitable identity for the maiden.

As for Josh, he could've killed him previously.

However, ending his life in a single blow was too easy on him considering how bad of a plight he had caused Alex and his daughter to end up in.

Letting him go, but also letting him know clearly that he would die, and no one could save him.

The sword hanging above his head could drop any time, and that was a fear that could destroy anyone's will.

What a beautiful method.

I hope he doesn't go insane before I take action. Mag smiled without any sympathy.

The maiden in his embrace suddenly looked up at him.

Mag realized that after leaving the Thunderstorm Mountains, there was no need to continue hiding her. Hence, he quickly put her on the griffin's back.

Although she only had a cape over her, it did not conceal the maiden's purity as she looked at him with her clear eyes.

"Hi, I'm Mag. I'm very grateful that you've saved me just now. How should I address you?" Mag said gently as he looked at the maiden.

The maiden looked at him for a while before shaking her head slightly. She still did not say a word.

"You can't understand the common tongue?" Mag thought for a while. Although she appeared to be 13 or 14 years old, she actually just hatched from an egg.

"System, do you have the Great Old Ones' language system in your language-learning machine?" Mag asked inwardly.

"She's a mute, and cannot make a sound. Don't waste your effort," the system replied quickly.

"Mute?" Mag was a little shocked. However, ever since this maiden appeared, she really had not spoken. She was quiet whether she was fearful or happy.

That was troublesome. She could not understand or speak, and most probably would not be able to understand body language. Communication would be basically impossible.

Mag looked at the cape on the maiden. The first thing he had to do now was to get her some suitable clothes. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain things to Amy and the rest.

"System, I want female clothing," Mag said inside.

"Are you serious?" The system was a little expectant.

"I want to custom-make a set of clothes for her." Mag rolled his eyes.

Mag opened the female clothing store, and quickly purchased a soft and white long down jacket, as well as some lingerie and a pair of black and white snow boots. It was just right for this season.

The system's speed was very fast. In three minutes, Mag retrieved a package delivered to him from behind, and passed the clothes inside to the maiden.

The maiden looked at Mag, and tilted her head. She instinctively reached out for the clothes, and the cape slid down her fair shoulders. The cape was about to fall off completely, but she did not appear to care.

Mag quickly reached over to pull the cape back up, and used a pin to fasten both sides together before heaving a sigh of relief.

However, he realized something very important. She was a newborn, and did not even know the differences between man and woman, or even the importance of wearing clothes, much less how to put on these complicated pieces of clothing.

Mag knew, of course, how to put them on. After all, he was a man who could undo a bra with a hand within a second.

However, it was not right to do something bad to her just because she was young.

The maiden held on to a pile of clothes, and looked at Mag with bewilderment.

"System, make a sex education video suitable for deaf-mute children, as well as a tutorial on how to wear the clothes. I'll buy them all." Mag paused, and added, "If she really cannot make a sound, get a progressive sign language tutorial video in as well."

"That's… a little difficult."

"Right, I thought my mission was rather difficult too…"

"Daddy, don't be anxious, I'll settle it right now. Not for 9999, not for 5999, just at the cost price of 1999!" The system's delighted voice rang. In no time at all, a 12.5-inch tablet appeared in Mag's hands.

The interface was simple, with no fancy software and just three videos: deaf-mute girls sex education video, recognizing clothes and how to wear them, and sign language progressive tutorial.

Mag tapped on the clothing video, and passed the tablet to the maiden. He pointed to her eyes and then to the tablet, motioning her to watch the video.

The maiden received the tablet. The main character in the tablet looked exactly like her. She also had no clothes on. She started picking up the clothes one by one, and showed a detailed tutorial on how to wear them.
