Become Tyrant On My Own Way
Chapter 100 – KING IGNITIA PICKUP

The Kingdom made its best efforts to quash student demonstrations, including other potential threats that could jeopardize the arrival of King Ignitia to the Kingdom of Meglovia.

The demonstrators can be pressed to a certain extent so that at least, the condition of the palace is again conducive, but we will never know what can happen outside the palace.

That is why on Day H, just a few days after the demonstration of the students, the escort of the arrival of King Ignitia was strictly carried out.

Ilene and I were instrumental in welcoming Uncle.

“Our respect to the bright star that always shines brightly in the pitch-black sky, King of the Kingdom of Ignitia, Algebra Star Ignitia.”

“Hohohohoho. Ilene, Helios, apparently you two are already very big huh. Especially you Helios, isn't this the first time we've met again after 15 years after your engagement? Hohohohoho.”

My uncle welcomed us in a friendly manner.

The two of us immediately escorted Uncle to the palace with a tight escort of royal knights who were also stationed at each point of the road to the palace. There was Albert and Yasmin who were also mixed in the line of the royal knights who were in charge of driving us from the eastern border gate to the palace.

This is a journey that takes 4 days, it will definitely be very tiring where we will also have to remain vigilant during the trip considering this region is the territory of the Marquise August van Tellborne faction which is having a cold relationship with the royal family post death Leon.

Thank goodness during our day trip, everything went well.

The eastern city is a relatively safe city. That is because our neighboring kingdom, the Kingdom of Cabalcus and the Kingdom of Ignitia are in a peace treaty with our kingdom, especially with the Kingdom of Ignitia which has family ties with Ayahanda, the king of this kingdom.

The East City was a trading city so this place was relatively crowded. There is also a relatively safe dungeon in the southern corner of the border, making it a relatively wealthy city.

We rested well at the inn that was purposely vacated for the guests of the royal family along with its knights. And, emm.the angora drink is really good. What to expect from the largest angora beverage processing industry center in the kingdom.

Should I also later think about developing the commudity of angora plants in our region? Many of our areas are highlands.

But it seems that I have to rethink that plan since the highlands of the Painfinn City region are made up of rocks with humid weather. Not suitable for the growing environment of angora plants. It has been very troublesome for me in the application of magic to the cultivation of grassfilt plants. I don't want to add to my work anymore, at least for now.

When the sun rose the next day, we continued our journey west. Then at night, we were forced to camp in the wild this time since there was no village or town nearby here.

In fact, we could have gotten a village if we had taken the effort of the previous trip to turn north or south, but that would have greatly increased our travel time.

But finally, we decided to take the shortest route since although this is a forest area, this place is relatively safe. No bandits could roam this place since the royal warrior patrol was quite tight here. That was because this was an important spot on the route leading to both the Kingdom of Cabalcus and the Kingdom of Ignitia directly from the royal capital.

At least, that's what I thought. Who would have thought such an event would happen. Apparently there was a group of assassins who managed to escape the eyes of the patrol soldiers who were now targeting our entourage.

When I realized that, I was sitting talking with my Uncle. I also stood up and approached Yasmin who was serving tea with supernatural might so that Uncle did not suspect.

“Yasmin, the taste of the dish will not be delicious without the cake served. Can you bring him some for us from in storage?”

“Good, Master.”

“Ah, make sure you get rid of the flies that disturb the dish calmly yes.”

“Ready, Master.”

Hearing my words, Yasmin's eyes immediately sharpened. He seemed to immediately understand what I meant. Although it was as usual, Yasmin who was also sensitive to the flow of mana must have realized that our surroundings were now being stalked by a group of assassins who tried to disguise their existence.

‘Lalat’ is my special code on Yasmin which refers to annihilation.

Yasmin is a very intelligent person who is very different from the clumsy and stupid Albert. If it was Albert I was talking to, then he would have been unaware of my secret code.

On matters of secret duty, I would rather entrust it to Yasmin. Besides being strong with a calm nature, he was able to move like an assassin as if his talent was indeed born as an assassin.

Of course when I didn't say the specifics of the task, Yasmin was the type of person who preferred to finish each fight brutally, eleven twelve with Albert. So actually, he's not much different from Albert who I always have to monitor.

The atmosphere was calm and peaceful in the tent where Uncle and I chatted leisurely. There were only Albert and the other four guards, two were from the Kingdom of Meglovia, and the other two were from the Kingdom of Ignitia who were clearly very distinguishable from the color of their eyes, skin, and hair.

-Tuak, tuak

“Akh.”

“Akh.”

“Death to you, you demon descendant!”

“Death to the glory of the continent of Ernoa!”

I did not understand the progress that was happening. Two Meglovia Kingdom guards besides Albert, suddenly went berserk and then wanted to stab me and Uncle.

“Uncle!”

I immediately summoned some pointy blades from the ice through my magic without a shipment then I precisely stuck them into the head of the bodyguard who was about to attack Uncle. He also experienced instant death without even having managed to touch a single hair belonging to Uncle.

However, because I was too focused on the bodyguard who was about to stab Uncle, I so ignored the other soldiers who were about to stab me.

I was hit by a smoother stab that seemed to make Albert very frustrated. However, I managed to avoid the vital part so that all he stabbed was in the lower part of my shoulder blade.

Albert was instantly in his rampage mode. He immediately kicked the bastard out of the tent and drew his sword. However, to my knowledge he was the head of the palace warrior bodyguard who was also a level 5 sword master. That is why, I can still be hit by a sharp stab even though I have tried to protect myself with a shield where imperfect because only I tried to form in the last seconds.

I'm not seriously hurt, thanks to this all-round necklace I wore. It will automatically close the fatal wound, although optimal healing still requires holy magic.

Meanwhile, Albert outside fought valiantly even though his opponent was a fellow level 5 sword master. The warrior's head tried to swing his sword at Albert, but even though their levels were the same, their absolute strength was very much different. Albert could immediately surpass his opponent through strength.

Seeing himself bounced off so easily by Albert, the head soldier who was in his forties seemed to plan more to rely on the technique to take down Albert who he saw younger than his age so he was sure that Albert technique was still waste.

He didn't know who Albert's sword teacher was. It was also my teacher as well, Master Kanazawa Junoichi, the level 8 sword master of the Asium Continent who was said to be the three best sword legends of the continent.

The head soldier seemed to want to make a stabbing move with a trick. But Albert immediately repelled the attack with his sword in front, then cleverly turned his sword with a seventy-degree angle in line with the rotation of his body then without waiting for another pause, his sword technique instantly changed from a defensive position to an offensive position by attacking into the area of the opponent's neck.

The soldier's head's neck was slashed even without him noticing. The opponent was soon dying with blood. That's how great Albert as a sword master, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of technique.

But the boy…

“Hey, stupid! Why did you kill him instead?! If so, how can we interrogate him?!”

“Master will also kill the person inside, nor has Master ever told me anything about not killing him. How about your wound?”

I immediately rebuffed Albert's hand, which was about to examine my stab wound.

“It's been nothing since this necklace artifact healed him. But now how... Ah!”

I immediately thought of Yasmin who was also currently conducting a silent assassin to the wandering assassins.

[Yasmin, you heard. Please leave one fly safe for us to interrogate.]

Since everything has been discovered by Uncle, there is no longer any reason to hide about the plot to kill the radicalists. However, what I could not guess was that their strength turned out to be greater than what I had imagined. Not only did they manage to influence the naive student, but their influence had also penetrated to the royal soldiers even to the head of the soldiers.

My question is, who is the mastermind behind all this? What I can suspect right now is that the nobles are corrupt because we happen to be in their territory as well since there is no longer Leon who is able to control them.

If not, was it an outside power like the Vlonhard Empire or even the Maosium Kingdom? Or is this the work of the witches? They have powers beyond reason so it is not strange that they have the power to control others like puppets.

And did this series of attacks also have anything to do with the attacks in Painfinn City two years ago that led to Leon's death? There's a lot I don't know and it makes me angry.

“Sorry, Master. Master's orders are late. I killed them all before Master's orders came. But I brought their heads, who knows if there are any clues to be gained from knowing their faces.”

Innocently, Yasmin came drenched in blood all over her body carrying more than ten heads in both her hands. Seeing that, of course, Uncle who was already at his limit after seeing a soldier right dead in front of him, immediately fainted to see the appearance of horror Yasmin.

Yasmin instantly turned my anger in the other direction. He's an idiot like Albert in another sense.
