The smell of blood filled the room.

"Go with peace of mind, father!"

Garrett drew his sword, squatted down, raised his hand and stroked Bruno's face, closing his open eyes.

When he stood up again, the grief and anxiety on his face were gone, leaving only madness and determination.

Now, he is no longer His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but Oduin VI, the King of the Kingdom, the lord that all nobles follow and are loyal to.

"No one can influence my will anymore, no one!"

He clenched his fist and glanced at the corpse at his feet. "Now, let me give the Wushan family the first great gift!"

Garrett chuckled twice, then pushed open the door, and the bloody smell in the corridor hit his nose.

He did not stop for a moment and left the scene in big strides.

Although he was the first heir to the kingdom, the throne was his after Bruno's death.

But this does not mean that Garrett dares to let the outside world know that he is the murderer of Bruno.

If news of him killing the king and his own father spread, most of the nobles would not recognize his identity. At this time, as long as someone takes the lead, the kingdom would immediately fall into instability.

But he was the last person to come to see the king, and he could not clear himself of suspicion.

So, Bruno's death needed to be covered up.

"Your Highness!"

Outside the bedroom, the guards saluted Garrett when they saw him coming out.

"Ah."

Garrett responded calmly, and as he walked, he said, "The enemy's movements have been ordinary recently. Stand guard well. If you find any disturbance, notify them in time!"

The guards' expressions were solemn. "Yes, Your Highness!"

Garrett nodded and then quickly left the scene.

An unknown amount of time had passed when a strange cold wind swept through the palace, forcing the guards on duty to circulate their fighting spirit to relieve their fatigue and coldness.

"What a horrible weather! In the past, the winter snow would have already passed by January of the New Year. This year is really abnormal!"

"Yeah, it's freezing cold, even colder than when it snows!"

"I wonder if tomorrow will be a sunny day?"

The guards talked in low voices, and some of them looked up at the night sky, trying to judge tomorrow's weather based on the stars.

"what is that?"

Someone shouted alertly.

Everyone looked over and saw a huge black shadow that had appeared above their heads at some point. If you didn't look carefully, you would have thought it was a dark cloud.

But this black shadow seemed to have a beginning and an end, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not a dark cloud.

"Warcraft?"

"Where can there be such a huge monster?"

"No, Duke Ronin's dragon is this big!"

As long as it's a monster, there are risks.

The captain of the guard team immediately shouted: "Go, inform Lord Broll and let the Griffin Knights be on alert. I will tell the captain!"

Just as they were about to take action, a black figure dropped from the sky and landed directly into the yard.

"assassin!"

The guards in the yard reacted quite quickly, exclaiming and drawing their swords.

But they were no match for the newcomer. Before they could make a move, their throats were cut by the cold sharp blades and they fell in a pool of blood.

After dealing with the guards blocking his way, the assassin slipped into the bedroom.

"Quick, blow the horn!"

"There are assassins!"

The captain of the guard shouted frantically, and the shrill sound of the horn broke the tranquility of the winter night.

Broll's residence was not far away, and he rushed over immediately after hearing the sound.

Just as he reached the door, there was a loud explosion from inside. The fierce fighting directly created a huge hole in the wall of one side of the palace.

"not good!"

Broll's face changed drastically. He took a step and went through the hole to the second floor.

But what he saw was Philemon with half of his body missing, and corpses lying on the ground.

"His Majesty!"

Broll rushed into Bruno's bedroom in panic, only to see a masked man in black coming out.

The sword in the assassin's hand was dripping with blood, and there was no movement in the room behind him.

"Damn it!"

Broll, sword in hand, attacked madly.

The assassin raised his sword to block, and surprisingly, he blocked Broll's attack with ease. Then he raised his leg and kicked him, sending him flying. He finally stopped after crashing through several walls.

"too strong!"

Broll was shocked. He had the strength of a late Meteor. Even if the one who came was a Silver Moon Knight, he could still fight. But the man in front of him was too powerful.

He is no match at all!

"The Knight of the Sun?"

The assassin seemed to have no interest in Broll. He jumped out of the palace through the hole and saw a large number of knights gathered outside.

When the knights saw the assassin coming out, they immediately launched fighting skills to attack.

More than a dozen rays of light from fighting skills illuminated the night sky, with a huge momentum.

But the assassin only struck out with one sword, and the red flame not only suppressed these fighting skills, but also carried the residual power to severely injure the knight on the ground.

"stay!"

A loud shout was heard from a distance, and purple lightning was seen rushing towards the assassin.

"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"The Crown Prince is coming!"

All the guards were glad that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was said to be a Sun Knight and would definitely be able to capture the assassin.

Unfortunately, the assassin easily took on this attack from a distance, then he stepped into the air and disappeared into the black clouds in the sky.

Then, the black cloud flew towards the horizon at an extremely fast speed. By the time Garrett arrived at the bedroom, the person had already escaped.

"Damn it, what's going on?"

Garrett shouted angrily, questioning.

No one dared to answer.

"Your Highness, please come in!"

Broll's heavy voice came, and everyone was frightened.

Garrett finally reacted and flew over quickly, "How is my father?"

Broll was in a state of disgrace, with blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

But the fear brought by reality has made him forget the pain.

"Your Majesty, he is...very bad!"

"Damn it, how did you protect me!"

Garrett pushed it angrily, then walked inside, looking so panicked that no one could tell what was going on.

In fact, Brower didn't even dare to look at the other person's expression because he was already immersed in endless self-blame.

Over the years, Philemon has been protecting Bruno closely, and he has been another layer of security.

In the past, Silver Moon Knights were rare, and there were even fewer Sun Knights, so there had never been any problem with Bruno's safety.

But now the situation outside has changed so much that their security has not been upgraded, so His Majesty the King died in an assassination.

"No!"

Garrett's shrill voice rang out, making everyone's heart sink to the bottom, and everyone was at a loss.

A seemingly absurd idea popped up in the minds of the knights outside -

The king...is dead?

Broll lifted his leaden legs and walked into the familiar bedroom, where he saw Garrett kneeling on the floor.

Bruno's cold body lay in front of the Crown Prince.

The atmosphere was so heavy that it made it difficult to breathe.

a long time.

"Who is the assassin?"

Garrett slowly raised his head, his eyes were red, and his aura of the scorching sun was released without restraint, which frightened Broll.

"He was masked and I couldn't see his face."

Broll said in a deep voice: "But he is very strong. Not only was my full-strength sword easily blocked by him, but the huge force he suddenly burst out also smashed through several walls!"

He paused for a moment and expressed his guess: "I suspect that the other party should be a Prideful Sun Knight!"

"The Knight of the Sun?"

Garrett stood up, clenched his fist, and uttered a name through gritted teeth: "Ronin!"

Ronin?

Broll's pupils suddenly contracted: "Impossible, Your Highness, this person is definitely not Ronin!"

"That's his subordinate, Rydar!"

Garrett's voice left no room for doubt. "Looking at the Kingdom of Oduin and the Kingdom of Tricia, how many Knights of the Prideful Sun are there? And that huge black shadow in the sky just now, if it wasn't his dragon, then what was it?"

"This……"

Broll didn't know how to explain for a moment, but his intuition told him that the assassin was neither Ronin nor Rydar.

"Go, go and get my mother over here!"

Garrett said in a deep voice: "Also, block the news, no one is allowed to leak this matter!"

Broll felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

He could only carry out Garrett's orders with guilt towards Majesty Bruno and self-blame for his own failure to fulfill his responsibilities.

"The kingdom... is about to change!" he thought to himself.
