LAZARUS REGULUS
Chaptre 221. Brant Vermilion's.
A burly-haired man and a long bright red beard, entered the throne room while carrying a 7-year-old boy with blond hair and green eyes.
Little Brant approached his father. "Dad, who is he?"
"His name is Troy, he's going to be your brother right now." The man was holding the right shoulder of a small 10-year-old Brant.
"Troy's? My name is Brant, I will now be your brother." Brant smile.
"Sister."
Brant took care of Troy affectionately and always defended Troy from all the insults of the other Vermilion Imperial Nobles.
"Why did you bring your bastard son from the brothel here! Are you crazy to have another child!"
"My wife! Troy is my flesh and blood! You can't insult Troy! The children will wake up because of your screams!"
"Haha. That bastard! You promised me before the wedding you'd be faithful the rest of your life! I have given you a son, but what recompense do you give? You went to the brothel and brought a child!"
Little Troy who heard him sobbed, but Brant hugged the crying little Troy.
"Sister, does the Empress hate me?"
"Troy, remember I will always protect you and be by your side. We'll be brothers forever."
Next day. Little Brant saw his mother with a waiter putting something into Troy's food and drink.
"Mother, will you poison Troy?" inner Brant.
At the Emperor's dinner table, the Empress, Brant and Troy were waiting for food. A waiter serves food to everyone.
Troy did not dare to glance at the Emperor and Empress, he then cut off a mouthful of meat and wanted to eat it.
"Wait, Troy! Let me eat your food and you eat my food. I feel like your food looks better than mine." Brant smiled sincerely.
"All right," Troy answered.
The Empress was surprised to learn that Brant wanted to exchange food with Troy.
"Tid–"
Before the Empress finished her words. Brant ate and swallowed that piece of poisonous meat.
"No!!!" Empress screams.
Brant's face and body turned blue from the poison and fell unconscious onto the dining room floor.
"Sister!"
Troy wants to help Brant, but the Empress doesn't allow Troy to touch Brant. "Keep your dirty hands from my son! All this happened because of a bastard like you! You've ruined my life and Brant's happy life!"
"Yesterlies!"
The empress slapped Troy in the face very hard.
"Stop! What are you doing! Have you gone crazy? Are you trying to poison Troy! Quickly give Brant the antidote before it's too late!" The Emperor shouted as he poured mana into Brant's body.
The empress offered the antidote to Brant, then the Emperor slapped the empress hard in the face.
"Why did you slap me?" The Empress sobbed, the Emperor had not slapped her in years since they were married.
"You've been late! You want to kill my son! I can't tolerate what you've done!"
The Emperor executed the servant and sent the Empress into exile in the middle of nowhere.
"Mother, I'm sorry!" Brant cried bitterly while hugging his mother.
"Brant, be a strong and mighty Emperor. Unlike your father and mother who never gave you love."
"Pa-consort!" Troy said in a stammer.
"Barraggart! Remember my words, you will have a terrible end! You've ruined my happiness and Brant's. Brant, be careful that sooner or later the boy will become a very cunning snake, then bite you! He will be the source of the destruction of the Vermilion Empire!" The Empress shouted, The 3 Knights forcibly escorted the Empress into the horse carriage to go into seclusion.
The Emperor saw his wife's departure from the Castle window with a face of despair.
"Goddess Electra, is this all my karma? Empress forgive your useless husband. Troy was actually the last son and descendant of my brother whom I had killed so cruelly. I feel guilty for the child and as penance, I want to make that child my son." The Emperor muttered.
30 Years later Troy and Brant grow into a handsome and mighty man. Troy dyed his hair red with the help of the Imperial Alchemist, but the red color was not as natural as the red color of the Vermilion Imperial Family.
"Sister, is Dad back?" Troy asked.
"Father has not returned from the Mythical Beast Ancient Green Dragon subjugation mission that terrorized Vermilion River City." Brant replied.
"When Dad comes back. I'm gonna ask him for help proposing to a woman I love so much." Troy smiled sincerely.
"Who is that?"
A Knight enters Brant and Troy's room in a hurry.
"Sir Alex, what's going on?" Brant asked.
"Prince Brant, the Emperor and all his troops have fallen in battle against the Green Dragon! Now the other Knights are on their way to bring the Emperor's corpse for cremation!"
"Dad, it's fallen!" Troy screamed and cried.
Brant hugged Troy with a stern expression. "Troy, I'll be with you forever because we're brothers."
Troy, Brant and the Knights and Nobles of the Vermilion Empire perform a feasting ceremony for the late Emperor.
3 Days later Brant was appointed the new Emperor of the Vermilion Empire and Troy was given the title of Duke and a vast territory in the Vermilion Empire.
A Priest went towards Brant carrying a will from the late Emperor.
"Prince Brant, the Emperor has already proposed to Princess Quinn Lion Heart, Princess Duke Silver Moon Amanda Silver Mount, Princess Duke Red Wing Anna Red Wing and Princess Zabrina Amazoness for you! He expects after his departure his lineage will not be cut off in your generation. All of these were contract letters that the Emperor and the others had agreed to." The priest gave 4 marriage contract letters to Brant.
"Thank you, Priest! I'll do what you've told me." Brant received the contract letter.
"Zabrina!"
"Troy, do you know him?"
Troy shook his head lightly. "Sister, I met once with Princess Zabrina Amazones. However, the meeting was only a short meeting. I'm very happy with your marriage and father in the garden of Eden will also be very happy."
*Wedding night at Troy Castle.
"Troy, did you give me up on getting married to Brant! Didn't you promise to marry me?"
"Zabrina, Brother is the most important person to me."
"Troy, don't you love me?"
"Zabrina, I love you so much and you are the only woman I love."
"Why did you let me marry Brant! Let's get out of this place! Have you forgotten the story you told me? The Empress and the Nobles have done you a terrible thing! They don't even think you exist and repeatedly try to kill you!" Zabrina shed her tears.
"Zabrina, after all Brant is my brother!"
"Do you prefer Brant to me? Don't you want to take revenge on the cunning nobles who have done you much evil?"
"I-i." Troy said stammering.
Zabrina hugged Troy. "You must become the Emperor of the Vermilion Empire and avenge you." Zabrina smiled broadly.
"Quinn, was already appointed as an Empress. I'm just a concubine, I'm free to marry Brant! I will use Troy to become the absolute ruler of the Vermilion Empire."
"All right, I'll listen to you."
Zabrina hatched a plan in Troy's ear. Like a cunning snake that incites a woman to eat a poisoned apple.
Eventually Troy and Zabrina created a terrible tragedy that led to the collapse of the Vermilion Empire.
...****************...
Cesare was biting a golden apple.
"Cesare, did you find out about the Vermilion Empire?" Lazarus asked.
"Haha. In the past I founded the Vermilion Empire, but I handed it over to my son. He hates me so much for playing around with so many women. He eventually established a rule for all his descendants to marry only one woman and an heir determined by the throne war." Cesare answered, biting the apple again.
"Why?"
"I don't know, but I think on planet Antares there are more women. That rule was so irrelevant that an Empire without many descendants was tantamount to a tree that had few leaves. His roots were very short and would wither over time, he was also very stupid for making the rules of the throne war. He should have directly pointed out who was truly worthy to be an Emperor."
"Hmmm.. Cesare, stop! I remember my past!"
"Haha. Arthur! Remember we are both dead! At first I also thought this place was Eden but not bad. All the things we want, except women we can get in this place just by thinking about it." Cesare says.
"And I wanted to meet all my family in the Garden of Eden." Arthur says.
"We also want to meet them, when we go to the Abyss. I want immediate revenge on all my enemies." All the births of Lazarus say.
*Eden Park.
"God Gail! Is it true that Cesare was not in the Garden of Eden and the Abyss?" A beautiful woman said, behind her tens of thousands of beautiful women waiting for the answer of the Life God Gail.
"I've said it over and over again, Cesare was instantly reincarnated!" God Gail shouted.
"Huhuhoo. Cesare promised me to meet in the Garden of Eden and the Abyss. But he reneged on his promise."
"Forget her! Relax and sleep comfortably here! You're dead, or else I'll send you to the Abyss!" Gail shouted, then left from there.
