True King's Ecstasy

Chapter 65 Cantrell Family II

?She had a full-blown smile on her face looking at us and our clothes. I choose the highest quality clothes for today's event becuase it will be a remarkable event in my life but it looks like she misunderstood as an attempt of mine to look good to a viscount.

"Welcome, Sir Keller to our Cantrell mansion, I'm Anna Cantrell, The wife of the viscount Jerald Cantrell," I felt like she was bragging about herself but I didn't give a single ratshit about her status.

"Thank you for having me here, My lady," I decided to keep this farce until I meet the viscount face to face.

"Come in, Viscount and my daughter is waiting," She welcomed me to their mansion which I gladly accepted.

We were walking in an expensive-looking hallway which had a lot of arts and ornaments which looked extremely expensive. Even though they were beautiful they had no use other than used as decoration.

"How extravagant, Lady Cantrell, they must be expensive right?" I asked her in a sarcastic tone but she didn't notice anything and kept bragging about how she bought all of this from auctions and stuff.

"So this is how they use the money they smuggle and steal," I thought to myself while following her.

We entered an expensive-looking room used for meetings and dinners. There were few maids serving dishes and entertaining people inside that room. Among them almost all of them were high-class-looking.

"Sir Keller, Welcome to the Cantrell family mansion, we were expecting your arrival, come sit here," A middle-aged looking man-invited me. I instantly ide ratified who he was.

He was none other than Viscount Jerald Cantrell himself. He was a middle-aged man with a strong-looking build. There was a young boy of similar age as me or elder than me and a girl who looked just like Anna Cantrell. She had a beautiful face and a body.

"Thank you for your warm welcome viscount Cantrell," I greeted him back politely.

"I was really surprised to get a proposal like that from the genius businessman himself of our kingdom, Have you been doing well in these past few days?" He gave the most generic question which I answered with the most generic answer I can give.

"I must say, Viscount Cantrell, your land looks really peacefully and prosperous, you must be a good leader to maintain such a good relationship," I was sarcastic but he didn't notice it and thought I said my words honestly.

I had a question after this conversation. Was there no sarcasm in this age and world? Everyone thinks I'm serious when I say something that I didn't mean. Well, it's hilarious sometimes how Jerald believes I accept all his lies. We were talking about the kingdom and different things for a few minutes but it was really disgusting to have a conversation with him. Even though he tried his best to hide all his intentions it was more than obvious to me that he was after my money and the influence I had.

"Viscount Cantrell, where's Lady Cantrell and her daughter?" I decided to put an end to this farce.

"They are right here," He said while pointing at Anna and Hannah.

"What? No, I'm talking about the girl I proposed to," Even though they wanted to bring them here, Sariya and Elda had been already sent to a safe place which I personally monitored to not get harmed by what is about to happen.

"Oh~ you're talking about that girl, actually Sir Keller, I don't recommend going after that girl because just like her mother, she is also a slut that's why I don't want to welcome them to this house," He was lying like he is breathing about Sariya and Elda which of course made me angry becuase Sariya was a great woman who sacrificed her life for the daughter while Elda was an innocent girl.

While we were talking maids entered with tea and cookies which looked absolutely delicious. While we were talking everyone started to enjoy this small refreshment.

"Is that so? Then I guess this marriage proposal will be cancelled,"

"Wait~ wait~ Sir Keller, what do you think about my daughter? She is a well-behaved girl and a supportive girl I'm pretty sure you guys will be a great match," Jerald was trying his hardest to convince me of this marriage. The girl in question was also trying to seduce me by showing her legs and stuff which of course did not affect me.

"Stop~ Stop~ I can't do this anymore," I said while laughing loudly which surprised everyone present in the room.

"What are you talking about Sir Keller?" Anna was the one to question my sudden laughter.

"Illegal slave trading, Tax frauds, Destroying lives of innocent children, Stealing crops from other nobels, Planning assassination's on other lords, Did I miss anything, Sir Jerald Keller?" My question caused all of them to freeze on their spot for a few seconds but suddenly Jerald's face became ugly with angry-looking face.

"You bitch~ I will kill you, did you come here to spy on me?" He tried to take his sword but froze on his spot just like everyone else.

"Spy on you? Wrong~ Wrong~ I came here to kill you?" Naomi and a few other people bragged into the room and surrounded them.

Jerald and the others who were in the room tried to attack us but suddenly all of them got paralysed.

"Say, Jerald? How does it feel to get poisoned in your own house by a total stranger?" I couldn't hold my laughter looking at his face which looked like a monster.

"Don't worry it's not a poison that will kill you but you will be paralysed for a few hours,"

"Do you want to know how I poisoned you?" Jerald didn't answer my question so I decided to answer him without his permission.

"It was a maid you forced yourself on, she helped me to poison you, you should feel lucky because those herbs I used to make this poison are somewhat rare," I kept ridiculing him.

"You bastard~ I will kill you" Jerome who was the only son of Jerald came running toward me waving his sword at me. He was fast but not as fast as me or Naomi. I quickly waved my sword which caused his head to fall to the floor rather easily.

Anna was dreading at the sight of her own son dying in front of her. She couldn't shout or cry becuase her body was paralysed. It took her a few minutes to recover from the shock.

"Ugh~ Ugh~" She started to shout like a dying animal after trying a few times. I didn't feel anything at the sight of this because they must have done the same thing to other families.

"How unfortunate~ if he drank more of that tea he wouldn't have to die like this," I said while looking at the corpse.
