The Second Life Of The Mercenary
Chapter 99 Don't blame me

3 Months ago ….

The next day Vanessa is still unconscious, while Charlotte admits to her mistake if she puts the poison after all the threats from Aisnley but not just her, he also dragged the name of Babylon until it made the emperor angry.

"This is how you educate your son?" the emperor shouted at Sera, as all the evidence turned to Babylon and Charlotte.

"You blame me? it's your fault that you're unfair to your two sons" Sera said.

Plaque!

"The queen's confinement to the cold palace, she would spend the rest of her life there as a servant. I revoked his title, and for Prince Babel to lock him up with Charlotte in the dungeon" the emperor said. 

Then after that Carolina, who was also exposed to the same poison as Vanessa from Charlotte, could not survive until her last breath a week after being exposed to the poison. While Vanessa thanks to a potion from Luca she made it through a critical period. Unfortunately Luca can not be sure when Isabella's favorite sister will wake up.

Now the emperor was investigating Charlize's disappearance and Albert's escape from the ancestral hall along with Samantha's escape with Babylonian help, a month later Arsena's army of knights returned with Samantha as prisoners.

They also said that if Charlize fell into the sea along with Albert, they would have been trying to find her. However until they arrived from the Diamond empire, they did not find the two men.

"I want to stop being a mercenary knight. I decided to disband Team Achlys" Isabella told all her colleagues.

"Are you sure, son? maybe in the future we can not meet again" said Bara, he regretted this.

"That's the decision. Let it be, all this time he's been getting too much grief. He lost his fiancee, one sister, Vanessa didn't know how either, and the guilt became immense. Let's let him go" Aisnley added.

"I'll take Luca to stay with me. You ... you .. take care of yourself yeah." Fil hugged Luca to hide his tears.

"Do you often see other people's dramas and imitate them? you moron! I want to disband the team. But you will stay with me, Aisnley will be my servant, Fil will be my assistant, Luca will be my family potion master, and Bara will be my guardian knight. We're all gonna stick together. We will go to the Black Stone City and release the name of the mercenary knight from us. Let's start a new life together again, will you?"  ask Isabella.

"Of course" they answered in unison.

"alright. Then let's do the last mission" Isabella said.

"What's that?" ask Bara.

"Destroy the pest" replied Isabella.

That night Isabella and her team acted in breaking into the emperor's dungeon, their last mission was in this place.

"Ckckl! you guys having dinner? together? the romantic," said Isabella made the two prisoners in brackets together was surprised.

"Issabella!" Babel smiled at Isabella, "You must not misunderstand. Dad forced us to be in the same cell, me and him doing nothing. No need to be jealous."

"Dadies!" Isabella shook her head and said, "I'm not jealous just that I feel a little sorry for you. Because of Charlotte's stupidity you also suffer, you even eat bread made from grain rough even beggars food is not like this."

"You're right. This silly woman is the cause of all my suffering, I really want to finish her off. Mother was not even useful at all, could not help me," upset Babylon.

"You said you loved me, after poisoning Vanessa you said we were going to get married. But what my power is, this female servant threatened me with poison" Charlotte pointed to Isabella.

"Babel, be gentle. If her face was broken, there would be no man in the world who would marry her, pity her when she was free" Isabella's taunts made Charlotte feel very upset.

"I'll make you meet with Carolina soon, when you see how you'll be responsible for her death" a telepathy from Isabella tells Charlotte, as soon as Charlotte turns her face the other way.

"Just leave him. He will not be released from this prison for the rest of his life, he will have to pay dearly for my suffering. But Isabella you wait for me, I'm not like Charlize who doesn't like to keep her word. Poor him to die in the middle of the sea" said Babel. Isabella clenched her hand hearing that, she did not accept Charlize was completely gone.

"How dare that man. You don't know shame, I'll kill you." Aisnley wanted to get out of their hiding place. But Bara held back from going anywhere, they still had to follow Isabella's plan.

"Don't you send Samantha to finish Charlize off? so you're the one who made my fiancee unable to return, right?" ask Isabella.

Babylon harrumphed and replied, "Not minding her anymore, Samantha was just boasting. He's been beheaded by my father for the attempted murder of Prince Albert so he's not going there for Charlize but my brother, forget it! after a long time of neglecting me, you have finally come to me."

"Yes, I will definitely come to see you. I'd really like to see you, ah! I brought you decent food." Isabella delivers a food box filled with sumptuous meals from the best restaurants in the capital.

"This is for you Charlotte too. Eat slowly until you're done." Isabella gave also to Charlotte, Babylon took the box from the sidelines of iron bars. Then he gave Charlotte a share as well.

After that the two of them ate voraciously, Isabella smiled they saw how greedy they were to eat what she brought.

"Whatis that? the food? sure enough," said Aisnley.

"He's right. Whatisit? we are here to eliminate them, not to make them a donation. Basic Isabella," added Luca.

"They don't deserve Isabella's kindness" Fil said.

"Uhuk huekkk."

All of a sudden they were bleeding a lot from their mouths after all they had eaten, hearing that the man in hiding was running towards Isabella.

"You …." Babel looked at Isabella with my eyes.

"How does it feel like the shadow of the love you gave Carolina and Vanessa? delicious right? must be good." Isabella grinned as she watched them instantly go nowhere.

"Isabella, did you attack them with poison? then what about us?" ask Aisnley.

"This is my problem, and my revenge. If I borrow your hands to kill both of them then how different would I be from them? so I sort them out my own way. I am mixing up a lot of toxins that will make them go to another world in a minute's time, I don't want to dirty your hands," replied Isabella, she changed her own plans at the last moment.

"You've worked hard." They all hugged Isabella and rushed out of the dungeon, now Isabella had removed her biggest barrier. He has avenged their actions for Vanessa and Charlize and Albert.

"Don't blame me" Isabella's inner self, it's a word she always uses when she commits a crime.
