1404 7 Rank 7s
"You lowlife scum! You can tell your children, grandchildren and even their grandchildren that you had the honor to escort me. Aren't you happy?"
A haughty voice rang from the carriage.
There was a stark silence outside.
"You worthless trash! If you don't want to be the first bunch to be killed by Isadora's brother-in-law, answer me properly, Are you happy?"
"Yes, Sir! We are happy, Sir!"
"How happy?"
"So happy that we are crying, Sir!"
"How much are you crying?"
"So much that our tears are greater than our best pees, Sir!"
"That's the spirit! Keep it up!"
The arrogant brother-in-law humed in satisfaction.
Sonya was stunned at her brother-in-law who didn't just act but 'lived' the role as the arrogant young master.
Even though Isadora's sound was reasonable, she started to fear if this man's arrogance would get them killed.
The carriage passed through the wide roads in the royal district. Every tile used to build these roads was made from rare asteroid metals—a single tile here could buy you a decent house in a province capital.
The dragon-horses in front of the carriage suddenly roared and came to a halt as they sensed something.
Without any intention of hiding, powerful auras swept the carriage.
Some were probing, others furious but all blatantly disrespectful, breaking the basic ettiquettee of not prying into a carriage in public.
The auras were blocked by the special formations engraved on the carriage—it's not for nothing that Sonya was proud of this thing.
But Varian rose to his feet and rolled up his sleeves, ready to start a brawl. Despite trying, he couldn't hide the rising excitement.
Like a kid who couldn't wait for his christmas gift, he hurriedly reached out to the curtain.
But a slender hand held his arm.
Turning his head stiffly, he looked at Sarah glaring at him with her blue eyes. And Enigma who was shaking her head in disappointment.
"A habit from work, hahaha!" With an awkward laugh, he rubbed the back of his neck and got seated.
Even though he did that, one would be blind not to notice his discomfort. The man was fighting the urge to not get into a fulfilling fight.
A soft touch filled the left side of his body and a tickling hot breath reached his ears. But the words were cold and blunt.
"Control yourself, husband. You are a human being, not an animal who only thinks with his animal brain whenever you get a good fight."
Varian sighed and lowered his head like a school kid punished by his teacher.
Sonya's jaw nearly dropped at the unbelievable sight. Was she seeing things? Had she finally gone mad from all the stress?
'T-That scary man is behaving like that?'
"The brother-in-law is arrogant but not stupid. He knows how to make use of the law when it's helpful." Enigma said.
Varian nodded with a helpless smile. It's what they already discussed. But it was so enticing to get into a good fight that he acted without thinking.
This time, he used the amplifier on the carriage and locked onto the places from which the auras originated.
"Hey, law breakers! By trying to pry into a carriage, are you openly disobeying the king's law?
In broad day light, in the royal district—the heart of the capital no less—you openly break laws set by His Majesty."
Varian's voice rang far and wide in the royal district. The people residing here, the elites of the elites, began to tense at his choice of words.
"I sense nothing but nefarious intentions behind such actions.
Are you not satisfied with the law?
Or…Are you not satisfied with the king who made the law?"
Boom!
A loud bang swept the sky of the capital and an irrestitible force crushed all the budding auras.
The force that erupted in that single moment was overwhelming and unstoppable. It was the true power that stood at the very pinnacle of the kingdom.
If these auras standing out and trying to pry were like large rocks with sharp edges, that aura was a mountain which crushed every single one of them with ease.
"Last warning."
A cold voice reverberated across the royal district.
A lot of people realized that this brother-in-law they just learned might actually be the real deal.
The royal guards who were escorting him with dissatisfied faces now looked back at the carriage in astonishment before straightening their backs and walking like emotionless machines.
If this guy was really her brother-in-law…then it's really an honor.
A few influential people in the district used their contacts and realized that Princess Sonya had returned but kept the news a secret. And she too had a carriage like this, which only a select few owned.
Now it made a lot of sense.
Then if the man's assertion of his 'acquintance' with Isadora was true, then…
'She is alive!'
'The legendary princess is alive!'
The news spread throughout the district like a wildfire. Most people were still skeptical but they wished for it to be true.
Acutely aware of the storm he intentionally set off, the man in question smirked and focused his attention on something more important.
