The villainous prince who bullied Feng Aotian was actually myself.

As Bazeir said this, he lit a cigar for himself.

"Uh, this..."

I still don't seem to understand.

never mind,

The world of big shots

It's too complicated...

"Have all three dukes left?"

inside the palace,

Leon, who had just finished packing his documents and came out of Caesar's office, looked at Hawkeye who was waiting outside and asked softly.

"They've all gone back, Your Highness."

Hawkeye replied.

"Well, okay."

Leon nodded indifferently.

“Your Highness Leon, due to His Majesty’s expedition, some troops have been redeployed, so I must now leave the palace to deploy and reorganize the city’s defense forces.”

After hesitating for a moment, Hawkeye spoke.

"Military affairs are important, go."

Leon hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided not to force Hawkeye to stay.

"You, come here."

Hawkeye beckoned to a group of knights standing in the corridor.

"Your Highness, Your Excellency."

The leader of the knights trotted up to Hawkeye and Leon at a military pace, then quickly removed his helmet and saluted them.

Tsk!

How could it be this guy!

Leon looked at the knight who had taken off his helmet; it was the same short-haired knight who had escorted him back to the palace from the church and killed Anna in the original story.

“Your Highness, this is Jack, a diamond-level demigod knight. You can give him any instructions you may have for now.”

Hawkeye explained.

"It is my greatest honor to serve Your Highness."

Jack bowed again.

"Um...okay."

After making a nasal sound, Leon accepted Jack's offer.

That bastard is a problem.

Diamond-level demigod knight...

That's enough strength to easily kill him.

Without a reasonable reason,

It's not an easy thing either.

"Then I will take my leave first."

Hawkeye bowed and then quickly left.

"Jack?"

After Hawkeye left, Leon's gaze returned to Jack.

"The minister is here."

Jack dared not be negligent in the slightest.

"I'm the kind of person who can't tolerate any nonsense, so I hope you'd better not try anything funny."

Leon said with a smile.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the goddess can attest to my loyalty."

Jack kept his head down, not daring to look Leon in the eye.

"Captain Jack."

At that moment, a knight hurried over from around the corner of the corridor.

"Your Highness Leon."

Upon seeing Leon, he immediately stood at attention.

"whats the matter?"

Leon frowned.

"We caught a guy of unknown origin."

Knight's report.

Um! ?

Upon hearing this, Leon was slightly taken aback.

Could it be Helena?

But Leon immediately dismissed the idea.

No no no,

How could they possibly capture Helena?

There's definitely something strange about this.

Chapter Twenty-Four: An Unexpected Appearance

We caught a guy of unknown origin?

This scene wasn't in the original anime.

Leon was somewhat puzzled.

The current plot development seems to have completely deviated from the original storyline.

In the original storyline, after being veiled by the Third Duke at the meeting, Leon suffered a complete emotional breakdown. He then went on a rampage, returning to the room where Helena was imprisoned and attempting to torture the defenseless Helena to vent his anger.

Unfortunately for him, it was too late to make a move against Helena. As soon as Leon returned to the room where Helena was being held captive, he discovered that Helena was gone.

He then ordered a search of the entire palace for Helena, but by this time Helena had already disguised herself as a knight and blended into the search party. Finally, Helena used the clues that she had discovered her escape as bait to lure Leon into a guest room, where she turned the tables and killed him.

This can be considered a case of reaping what you sow, after all, the original owner was truly a complete scoundrel.

So when "Lin Beixuan" saw Helena successfully take revenge on Leon in the anime, he felt a great sense of satisfaction, except—now he himself had become Leon…

Emmm...

hiss,

No, I can't die! The original owner was a bastard who deserved to die, but I really am a good person! Lord Feng Aotian, I'm innocent! *sobs*

Leon sighed quietly, his heart already flowing like a river in spring.

If it deviates from the original story, so be it. This inexplicably added plot is most likely a world-line correction, giving themselves a new way to die.

It's exhausting, so the villains are destined to die. Don't they really have the right to pursue their own happiness?

Leon really didn't want to die. In another world, he still had his beloved family. In his heart, he still held a sliver of hope to return to Earth.

call,

In fact, Julius Caesar was indeed a very charismatic emperor. Anyone with common sense could see that his vision and governing ability completely surpassed those of Hoyle I.

He believed that heroes created by the times are merely lucky ones in the tides of history, while true heroes should create their own times and firmly grasp their own destiny.

His fate was to be a villain destined to die, but he just couldn't die. Hah—was this a kind of wrestling with the natural order of this world?

If we absolutely have to rank them, then let's do it, since we have no other choice.

"Anyone who dares to trespass into the forbidden area of ​​the palace should be dragged away and beheaded."

After a silence of about half a minute, Leon let out a soft breath before giving instructions to the knight who had reported the incident.

Leon didn't want to meet this mysterious fellow. His intuition told him that for a protagonist, such a sudden occurrence might mean a new opportunity. But for a villain, it was definitely not a good thing.

To be on the safe side, let's just drag this guy of unknown origin away and kill him. That way, we can nip the danger in the bud and give Meow no chance at all.

of course,

If this mysterious person really is Helena, then given Helena's extraordinary destiny, even if I ordered her to be dragged away and executed, she should be able to escape.

Did they accidentally kill Feng Aotian?

Feng Aotian now possesses strong self-protection capabilities, so there's absolutely no need to worry about that.

"As ordered."

After a slight hesitation, the knight got up to return.

But at that moment, the sound of running suddenly came from the corner of the corridor.

Then a longsword flew from the corner and crashed into the wall. Before the sword had even fully hit the ground, a knight covered in blood and with tattered armor was sent flying backward.

The knight also crashed into the corner wall, then bounced violently back to the ground. He collapsed face down, his body convulsing violently a few times before becoming completely still.

Less than a second after this scene unfolded, a snarling monster with empty eyes emerged from around the corner. This monster had a body similar to a human's, but its skin was covered with bumps that looked like toad skin. These bumps were ulcerated and oozing disgusting, sticky pus.

Just one glance at the monster and Leon felt a buzzing sound in his brain, as if it had short-circuited.

The other knights around seemed to have the same visual shock as Leon. Except for Jack, who had already gained the physique of a demigod, all the others stood there dumbfounded, even forgetting to draw their swords.

The monster's empty eyes looked towards Leon, and then, like a hungry gray wolf suddenly spotting a fat sheep, it bared its fangs and charged forward recklessly like a hysterical madman.

At this moment, the stunned knights on the roadside finally reacted and tried to draw their swords, but it was too late. They were all sent flying in all directions by the enormous force of the monster's charge.

Damn it,

How could such a powerful "strange thing" appear in the palace!

If Leon dies, then I, as the captain of the knights, will also lose my head.

But this monster is clearly stronger than me! Even if I fight desperately, I might be able to stop it or even kill it, but it would still be difficult to protect Leon, this silver-level trash.

Furthermore, if you desperately try to block this monster, you might be corrupted by it and turn into one yourself.

After quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Jack realized that he wouldn't be pleased either way, so he decided to protect himself and abandoned Leon, turning around and running away.

What bad luck!

He had just managed to become the captain of the Royal Knights squad with a decent salary last month, but now not only could he not make it there, he might also be wanted by the Empire.

Sigh, never mind.

At worst, I can just escape abroad. Anyway, I'm already a demigod. The world is so big, where can't I live a carefree life?

Thinking this, Jack moved with lightning speed and disappeared in no time.

When the monster recovered from its dazed state, it had already crushed the body of the knight closest to Leon.

The strongest combat force in this area at present—the demigod knight Jack—has long since disappeared.

Leon, facing the monster, suddenly found it somewhat comical and amusing.

He did not flee, because he knew that with his silver-level mage strength, he had no chance of survival against this monster that had mutated into a mythical creature.

Is this the corrective force of world lines?

For insignificant mortals to attempt to defy fate is indeed a pipe dream, a fantasy.

A sharp, burning pain shot through his shoulders as the monster's claws pierced into Leon's shoulders, attempting to tear his body apart with brute force.

With its power, it can certainly do it easily.
