Chapter 894: Chapter 896: Ergency Situation
Pulling up the scarf around her collar, Iyas softly said:
“He ng, do you know what just happened? Why am I standing here…”
He ng, who had turned into a scarf, straightforwardly whispered into Iyas’ ear: “You were just controlled by an Enchanting Demon…”
“Controlled?”
Iyas tried to recall what had happened earlier. She rembered seeing the faces of the two sisters when her hood was almost blown off, but she just couldn’t rember what they looked like.
“Those two sisters are indeed problematic…..
He ng, are you alright?
You fed the potion that dispels charms… how did you dispel the charm on yourself?”
He ng snorted proudly: “Charm has no effect on powerful Demons.”
“No effect, you single-handedly dealt with those two sisters…..”
“No, Yang Yu said not to alert the enemy before we can achieve an overwhelming victory, so your charm was only dispelled here…..”
Iyas was silent for a mont, then anxiously asked:
“I heard that charm has a brainwashing effect… making people say things they don’t want to say… I didn’t say anything I shouldn’t have, did I?”
“Said quite a lot.”
“What, what exactly did I say…”
“Don’t worry.
Actually, you being controlled was within that guy’s expectations.
The things you said were probably what Yang Yu wanted the Enchanting Demon to know.
Yang Yu left by your side not just to protect you but also to ensure the stable progression of his plan.
That guy, when worshipping Clover, always secretly adds notes into the leaflets I eat.
If I weren’t a Sli, I’d have choked on those notes long ago, let alone know what’s written on them.
Hmph, next ti he’s eating, I’m stuffing his mouth with notes.”
Iyas sighed in relief, glad this was part of Yang Yu’s plan too.
If her mistake had caused the plan to fail, Iyas really wouldn’t know where to hide her face.
With no one else around, He ng continued to speak quietly to Iyas:
“If you have any questions, wait until you et with him to ask.
He asked to confirm your feelings after being controlled by an Enchanting Demon.
To help determine what magic you were actually controlled by…”
“Feelings…”
Iyas was about to express her feelings but noticed the surrounding noise gradually subsiding.
Chilom, standing in the center of the dining hall, softly coughed, straightened his slender body, and began:
“Welco, everyone, for traveling from afar to attend this banquet.
Next, I have sothing very important to announce…
As everyone knows, Wansheng Country has been attacking the Luo Ze Empire for three months now. In these three months, we have lost many outstanding generals, which brings great sorrow.
Whenever I think of the cris of the Beastn, I cannot sleep peacefully…
After much deliberation, I have finally made a significant decision…”
Just as Chilom spoke midway, a shadow burst into the banquet, swiftly making his way to Emperor Luo Hui, finally half-kneeling before him.
This man was the special ssenger in charge of delivering frontline ergency information to the Emperor.
He was responsible for communicating any urgent situations from the front lines.
The reason for his presence was self-explanatory.
The initially carefree Emperor Luo Hui, who was enjoying his al after a break from state affairs, imdiately lost his pleasant mood upon seeing this, and asked:
“What is the urgent situation at the front line?”
The special ssenger did not dare delay, directly reporting the battlefield situation to Emperor Luo Hui:
“Report, Your Majesty.
The Colorful-haired Masked Man has appeared again, and his true form is none other than the Deputy General you appointed, Yang Yu.
Due to his appearance, our troops were forced to retreat.
For detailed information, please Your Majesty and all the generals proceed to the conference room for the briefing.”
Latis was shocked, opening her folded fan to cover her gaping mouth. She had never associated Yang Yu with the Demon who did such things.
This fact devastated her but also piqued her interest in Yang Yu.
Looking around, countless people showed the sa expression as Latis.
So Nobles’ faces turned ashen, believing the intelligence must be wrong; otherwise, they would look like fools busy trying to arrange a marriage with Yang Yu, yet they felt sowhat relieved, thankful that Yang Yu didn’t fancy their daughters.
Upon hearing this news, Emperor Luo Hui first showed shock, then grew angry.
He did not imdiately express his stance, nor did he rise to leave, but rather stared intently at Chilom, questioning:
“Mr. Chilom, did you know that your adorable relative is actually the Colorful-haired Masked Man?”
Chilom took a deep breath, his gaze unwaveringly firm, replying with unusual determination:
“Your Majesty, I knew he was the Colorful-haired Masked Man.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Hui was furious.
“Since you knew, why did you protect him and let him go to war? He is our enemy!
This country’s current state is all because of him. Without him, how could our Empire have failed?
You knew he was the Colorful-haired Masked Man, yet you didn’t report it and even harbored him!
Do you intend to beco our enemy? Want to see us Humans wiped out entirely? Do you wish to see all our previous efforts wasted?
What kind of sweet talk did he use to deceive you?”
Emperor Luo Hui rebuked loudly, no longer suppressing his tone. Many present were seeing Emperor Luo Hui like this for the first ti.
In their eyes, Emperor Luo Hui was always extrely steady, now… now he was gradually losing his composure.
Emperor Luo Hui clenched his fists, shaking all over, wishing he could land two heavy punches on this friend who once took care of him.
But instead of using force, Emperor Luo Hui simply glared at Chilom, wanting to hear remorse from him.
However, Chilom rely laughed, laughed heartily, uncontrollably, and the entire dining hall echoed with his laughter:
“Your Majesty, you’re still the sa as always, not much has changed.
To tell you the truth, I wasn’t swayed by his sweet talk, he and I share the sa goal, I just chose to believe in him.
That’s precisely why, knowing he is the Colorful-haired Masked Man, I sheltered him, providing him all sorts of conveniences.
In my view, he is the one closest to peace, closest to the truth, understanding what crisis our country is in.
It’s only by trusting him that our Empire has a chance.
Even now, I believe I made no mistake.
If I were wrong, it would an I’ve misjudged enormously.
Your Majesty, I hope you’ll have so patience.
To bake a delicious cake needs so ti and patience.
If you call to take the cake out the mont it’s put in the oven, and end up eating raw batter, how would you know if the cake I baked is good or not?
You asked that, Your Majesty, let ask you this.
Your Majesty, till now, what has blinded your eyes?
Let show you what has blinded you so far!”
With those words, a sudden bright light illuminated from the corner of the dining hall.
