Upon arrival, Alyssa gave Su Yu a cheerful smile like a little girl: “I’m here, Nemesis! I’m still on time, right?”
But seeing Su Yu and Tina holding hands, Alyssa’s smile froze on her face.
Tina noticed the gaze of the princess and her cheeks reddened slightly, quickly releasing Su Yu’s hand.
However, Su Yu didn’t think much about it. He laughed to Alyssa: “Of course, Princess! You arrived just in time. If you were any later, Tina and I would have ended up dead here.”
Last night, after Su Yu got the information about the secret meeting of the city lord’s manor from Sky Dragon, he immediately arrived at Forest City to meet Princess Alyssa.
After learning about the situation in Orleans City, Alyssa decided to come in person.
But she didn’t expect to see Su Yu and Tina holding hands as soon as she arrived.
What is this? Are they coming clean with her?
Alyssa ignored Su Yu and turned her frosty gaze on to Claude and Antondidas, wishing she could tear these two to pieces!
Especially Antondidas, her good friend– the [Star Realm Kitten] Morning Star almost died in Kaishi Town and he had a “hand” in it.
Alyssa released the pressure of a legendary peak powerhouse, pressing towards the two. The dazzling pattern behind her spun rapidly, and her spear itched for action.
The faces of Claude’s group turned exceptionally pale after the Princess appeared.
With the added power of the guardian deity, the princess reached a seventh-order peak!
They were only at the sixth level.
If comparing their combat power, it would take approximately 30 Claude’s or 10 Antondidas’ united together to have hopes of defeating Alyssa. The gap in their strength was too huge — so huge that it was not likely to be surpassed.
As for escaping ha.
Antondidas detonated the [Space Rune], completely blocking all surrounding space within five kilometers. They couldn’t use teleportation to escape, they could only utilize their own flight ability.
But how could they possibly escape from the Magical hand of Alyssa who was at the peak of legendary realm with their flight abilities? They might not even be able to make it five kilometers before Alyssa would catch up with them and finish them with her spear.
So, the four didn’t dare to move an inch while floating in mid-air, their faces were ugly.
“Antondidas, have you thought about what you want to inscribe on your tombstone?”
Alyssa’s spear drew a beautiful arc in the sky as she approached Antondidas looking glacial.
Sweat dripped from Antondidas’s forehead, he forced out a smile that was uglier than crying. He took off his mage’s hat and said: “Princess, I am willing to surrender to you, please do not kill me.”
Alyssa really wanted to stab Antondidas to death with her spear to avenge Morning Star, and also to vent the pent-up anger in her heart.
But then, she thought of Antondidas’s powerful [Group Teleport] spell, which could play a huge role in the war.
With this in mind, her killing intent diminished slightly.
A blue scroll flew out from her Space Ring.
The scroll floated in front of Antondidas and then automatically unfolded.
This is a blue, starlit scroll with a very complex magic circle inscribed on it.
The center part of the magic circle was now slowly rotating under the drive of magical power, emitting an intimidating blue light.
“This is the [Soul Slavery Contract] created by the Star Realm. After signing the contract, you will be completely controlled by me for a whole three years and become my servant. Now, I give you a choice, either become my servant or die!”
Antondidas’s heart was beating fast. He was fully aware of the situation right now.
If he didn’t sign the contract, he was likely to die here. Tula Yang was far away from him and it was impossible for him to rush over and save him.
If he signed the contract, he would be enslaved by the princess for the entire three-year term of the [Soul Slavery Contract].
After a brief period of contemplation, Antondidas asked, “Your Highness, what about after three years?”
If the princess were to enslave him again with another contract, it would be better to just die.
However, Alyssa just snorted coldly in response, “After three years, I will grant you freedom, allowing you to leave. I swear upon my surname ‘Goldfinch.’”
Given Alyssa’s assurance, Antondidas breathed a sigh of relief slightly, his thoughts began to lean towards “signing the contract.”
But there was still a lingering skepticism in his heart.
Antondidas looked directly at the princess and said, “Your Highness, I am a citizen of the Lai Yin Empire. During the contract period, could you not make me attack my own countrymen? If you agree to this, I will sign the contract right now.”
Alyssa raised her brows, “You dare to negotiate with me? However I can agree to this trivial condition.”
[Alyssa was mainly interested in getting Antondidas’s group teleportation skill—whether or not he’d participate in battles was secondary.]
“Well then.” Antondidas took a deep breath and placed his hand on the scroll in front of him.
The scroll quickly disintegrated, its light blue starlight broke into tiny particles and quickly spread over Antondidas’s body, tightly wrapping him up.
Antondidas became as if he were petrified, motionless while the starlight corroded his body, and didn’t make a sound.
Alyssa no longer paid attention to Antondidas.
She cast her intimidating gaze on Claude and the others in the distance, and the other two [Soul Slavery Contracts] flew out from the Space Ring, respectively flying towards Grace Windsor and Franken Jean.
Grace and Franken understood the princess’s intentions, and without hesitation, extended their hands towards the scroll.
Soon, they, too, were completely enveloped by starlight and subjected to its corrosion.
Claude, the city lord, looked extremely uncomfortable.
The princess had given scrolls to the other two but not him, the implications were clear.
Still, there was a glimmer of hope in his heart, “Your Highness, what about me?”
“Hmph, you?”
Alyssa looked at him cold as ice: “Claude Strathrow, you dare to betray the Empire! You conspired with the rebels against the Empire, this is a capital crime!”
As Alyssa thought of Su Yu, who was suspected of “betraying” her on one side, her anger flared up.
“Could you spare me? I am willing to hand over all my property and land ” Claude begged pitifully.
“Don’t even think about it!”
The princess stepped forward, intending to kill him with a single thrust of her spear.
But before she took action, she suddenly halted.
She turned to Tina, who was standing behind her, and with a smirk said, “Tina Garcia, I’m giving you a chance, kill this traitor with your own hands.”
“Understood! Your Highness!”
Tina had long desired to kill this evil man, Claude, with her own hands; upon gaining the princess’s indication, she swiftly raised her sword, which turned into a golden light before charging towards Claude.
The rest of the story followed without any unexpected happenings.
After a ten minute fierce battle, the desperate Claude, weaker than Tina, was impaled through the heart by her sword and died.
The nine city lord’s manor’s fifth order powerhouses kneeled mid-air in allegiance to the princess, not daring to make any movement.
The era of Orleans City belonging to the Strathrow family had come to a resolute end.
