Chapter 448 448 Killing The Former Emperor

"So what now? Who do I need to kill?" Aldred asked.

"I don't think you need to kill anybody. Not yet at least."

Aldred sighed. "That's no fun."

"Come on. Killing isn't your only hobby, right?"

"Of course." Aldred smiled as he wrapped his hand around Stella's waist and pulled her closer into him.

Stella flicked his nose. "Not now."

Aldred giggled. "Alright."

"Let's get back to the palace first."

They immediately teleported back into the palace. This time, they visited the throne hall where Empress Edeline stood and walked down the steps the moment they appeared.

"So what now, Edeline?"

"What now? It's over already. We won. The Dragons have succumbed to us."

"Really?"

Edeline nodded.

"That's just too easy."

Edeline sighed. "I don't think killing 15 Diamond Ranks alone is easy. Especially not to someone who just become a Diamond Rank."

"It's all in a day's work." Aldred laughed.

Stella let out a bitter smile when she heard that. If she didn't know the soft side of him, she would think of him as a killer maniac.

"Would you like to sit on your throne?" Edeline asked.

"Not yet. Where are my friends?"

"They are in a secret palace. Since they are below Diamond Ranks, our enemies might take hostage of them. Everyone knows they are your weakness Aldred. The moment their location are known that is when we should really worry."

"Thank you, Edeline. I owe you a lot."

"No, Aldred. It is I who owed you a lot. So what would you like to do now?"

"I want to take my steering wheel. Where is the Emperor?"

"He's no longer the Emperor. You are."

Aldred smiled. "What was his name again? You know what, I don't care. From now on, I will call him A Piece of Shit."

They traveled to the dungeon. At the entrance, a guard bowed deeply at the sight of the Empress herself.

"Your Majesty the Empress!"

Edeline pointed towards Aldred. "Greet him as well. He is your new Emperor."

The guard widened his eyes. He did it so abruptly that they almost popped out of their socket. "The.... The Emperor! Yes, this guard greet the new Emperor."

"Uhh, you don't have to do that. I am not very comfortable with this type of formality."

Edeline giggled. "You'll have to get used to it."

The guard was even more shocked. He had been working for the Royal Palace for 40 years and he had never seen the Empress cracked a smile.

But now she even giggled and laughed in front of this new Emperor? The guard took a careful look at the face of the new Emperor.

He then realized something. This man was one of the most talked figure in the Ceraisian Empire. It was said that the Dragons tried to kill him while he was in his journey to obtain the treasure.

But he was here. Alive. Well, and even became Diamond Rank. Last but not least, he even became the Emperor.

So he survived against the chase of the Dragon!

The guard looked at him fully with admiration and respect. No one could be alive when the Dragon was determined to kill them off. Usually, the Empress would retaliate, but still, the target would always be taken down.

And yet they failed to take down this one man.

No man on earth was worthy enough for the throne and the Empress, but this man... he believed this man was worthy enough.

"Hello?" Stella waved her hand in front of the guard's face.

The guard jolted back into reality, realizing what he did, he quickly bowed again. "I am sorry, your majesty. Please punish me for my insolence!"

"No need. We all feel tired at work sometimes," Aldred said. "Now, please show me the way to the Piece of Shit--I mean the former Emperor."

"R--right this way, your majesty."

The guard guided them inside the dungeon. It was dark and narrow. So narrow they couldn't walk side by side.

And the wall, it wasn't bad at first, but the deeper they went, the more disgusting it get. Moss, dirt, stain, and even blood.

After walking for a few more minutes, Aldred even saw rats.

He looked at the small jail cells. The cells were small, but there were a lot of people inside, cramped like fish.

After using his godly eyes, he realized that all of them were nobles.

Nobles were put in this disgusting jail cell! The Empress were truly cruel to his enemy. At least with Aldred, he would simply kill them.

But this... this is torture for the nobles since they were used to be treated like gods.

Now they were sleeping with rats.

At the deepest end of the dungeon, there was a door. The guard opened it and Aldred sensed a reek of disgusting smell.

The Piece of Shit was lying there on the ground with his rat piss and shit.

"You really are a Piece of Shit."

The former Emperor opened his eyes and glared at Aldred. "It's you. It's all you! Because of you everything went wrong! I should have killed you the moment the guards bring you in the throne room. If not for Edeline who convinced me otherwise, this wouldn't have happened!"

Aldred smiled."It's funny how you blame others for your downfall. If you return me my steering wheel that time, you wouldn't be in this position right now."

"Steering wheel... that damned thing."

"Give it back to me."

"After all you have done, you think I will simply give it back to you."

"HAHAHAHA." Aldred laughed. "Oh please, the longer you refuse the happier I am. It just means I can torture you a lot longer."

A sharp sheen appeared on Aldred's eyes. The former Emperor trembled. Something about those pair of eyes told him that he would regret doing this. That he better off chose to die rather than facing what this man would do to him.

After much hesitation, the Emperor took out a spatial bag.

Aldred scoffed. "Cowards." He raised his Phantom Doomblade.

"No wait. Spare me! Pleas--"

SLASH!

His head rolled on the ground.

Edeline looked at the head with a little bit of relief because she finally get rid of her enemy. The Emperor wasn't a particularly a smart one. His power was mere illusion. The true enemies were the nobles.

But the Emperor still acted as the symbol. As long as he was on the throne, the nobles could work together.

Now that he was death, there was no one to unite them anymore.

Edeline could finally began her plan to reform the Empire. To become a peace loving civilization.

Grabbing the spatial bag, Aldred took out his steering wheel.

He stared at it and caressed it. "It's been a while."

He sighed. "I finally got my steering wheel back."

"What is it for?" Edeline asked.

"It's a secret." Aldred smiled. "But maybe I will show you."

Edeline smiled. Aldred always had a little mystery about him. His identity, and how come he landed on the harem's bathroom. And why was he so talented, powerful, and able to master all kinds of elements and techniques.

She yearned to know the answer, but she wanted to do it slowly. It wouldn't be fun if all the answers simply lay bare in her eyes.
