For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

Chapter 100



Chapter 100

After floating around the imperial palace for a good while, Everly was finally pushed into a dark and cold room. Under the dim candlelight, Lennox's pale face seemed to be focused on the letter in his hand. His pupils moved smoothly across the paper as his eyelashes leisurely bated from time to time.

Once he was done reading its content, Lennox put the letter in his desk drawer. He turned to look at the dumbfounded Everly, ignoring her uncertain gaze, Lennox asked helplessly.

" Why are you lifting the roof tiles after not getting beaten for three days? Although you do have black history, you still used to be quiet and obedient most of the time. But I suddenly received a report of how you screwed up with random people and set the kitchen on fire. Seriously, What is going on in that monkey head of yours these recent days? "

Everly stayed silent, oddly staring at Lennox. If a kid stares at you then stare back at them. Thus, the two kept staring at each other for a while until Everly asked in a low voice.

" Who are you? "

".....eh? "

Looking at her surroundings, this was Lennox's room. Then who is this guy? A thief? Everly became wary, she got up off the ground before asking firmly.

" Who are you? What are you doing in Lennox's room? "

" .....This is my room "

" no, This is Lennox's room! I always sneak here so I know it! "

" I am Lennox Dan Rediel Sitia "

Lennox tapped on his elbow as he looked at Everly in bewilderment. He slept for a few days and she already forgot his face?? Or could there really be something wrong with his face?! Instantly, Lennox turned his head to look at his reflection on the small ink bottle.

' I am a bit paler than usual but it's still Lennox's normal face. Then what's with this zombie? She doesn't seem to be faking it '

Lennox sighed. He walked towards Everly, thinking that she might be sleepwalking and she might wake up if he slapped her once or twice. When he got closer to her, Lennox noticed a strange glow in her eyes. Panicked, he suddenly seized her jaw aggressively saying.

" What the fuck?? Who did this to you?!! "

Everly was startled. She tried to break free from his grip, yet, with her strength, she couldn't move him at all, which made her quite scared. Usually, Everly would be able to defeat a second stage warrior without much effort, but now this scammer isn't even budging!

She raised her head, looking at him with teary eyes and a low frightened voice.

" I, it, hurts, let go "

Seeing her expression, Lennox quickly snapped of his thoughts.

" ah, yes. Sorry, I was a bit overwhelmed "

He released her from his grip and gently caressed her head. Still frowning with a complicated gaze. He waited until the little girl seemed to calm down before stealthily flicking her forehead. Everly's body stiffened, her eyes lost focus and turned dim as a palm-sized magic circle appeared on her forehead.

Lennox studied the magic circle for a moment. His frown deepened as he read the instructions installed in the mind-controlling spell.

{ kill the crown prince }

There is no way in a million years that whoever put this spell actually believed that Everly could kill him, ignoring the fact she stabbed him a few days ago, which means that they had other intentions.

' are they trying to create disputes between the old man and general? '

If Everly really managed to harm him with the intention of murder and right in front of Jennings, then the other won't turn a blind eye on it. Seeing how the Emperor doted on her, she might not die but at least will receive punishment. After the absent Bernard returns to the capital and hears about how his beloved sister was treated, he will for sure flip the entire Empire upside down.

' motherfuckers! '

Luckily, Lennox had accidentally left a small amount of his mana in Everly's body, when he invaded her memories, and was too lazy to retract it so he just left it there to circle inside the girl's system. Thus, when the spell was cast, it didn't work in full effectiveness due to Lennox's mana disturbing its flow in Everly's energy system. Causing the instruction of (kill Lennox) turns to ( Lennox is dead).

" Walter, what the heck is Oliver doing! A fucking sorcerer hacked into the palace right under his nose and he is still fooling around?!! "

Long ago due to the many assassination attempts on him, Lennox created a magical formation around the palace, everyone that comes and goes would be detected along with their energy levels. Aside from him, Bun-Bun and Oliver were the only ones who Lennox entrusted to keep an eye on it. However, since Bun-Bun was on a vacation and Lennox was half dead, Oliver should be the one monitoring the palace.

There was no one other than Lennox and the paralyzed Everly, as for Walter, Only his bone-chilling eerie voice could be heard.

" Actually, that manwhore was sent to Yusfin city by the Emperor a day before your lordship's return "

" you mean the palace was left defenceless?!! "

" no, I was here "

"....."

' no offence but you really ain't reliable '

Lennox put the matter aside, for now, he had to deal with Everly first. He stared at her thoughtfully for a moment, then gathered a light amount of mana in his fingertip before flicking her forehead again.

The next second, Everly's eyes lit up, as bright as morning spring. She blinked at him a few times before grinning foolishly.

" Lennox~ "

" Look at you attracting crap from everywhere "

Lennox rolled his eyes and turned back to his desk. He picked a blank paper wrote something on it then called for her.

" don't stand there like a coat hanger, come here "

Once she approached him, he handed her a quill pen and pointed at the end of the paper.

" sign here, or just write your name. The real one "

Everly did as she was told and wrote, 'Maitea' with the shittiest handwriting Lennox had ever seen. After that, he muttered a spell under his breath, once he was done the paper shot up and floated in front of them. Everly's eyes sparkled as she watched the weird symbols, that resembled rune letters, appear at the top of the paper.

Lennox didn't wait for her to process what was going on. He grabbed Everly's paw and made a small scratch at the bottom of her index finger. Although for some reason it did not hurt at all, Everly was overwhelmed by the oddly good amount of blood that came from the small scratch.

She was yet to start crying when Lennox pulled her bloody hand and slammed it on the paper. The unknown symbols glowed, Lennox tapped on the paper causing it to instantly disappear.

The clueless Everly silently stared at Lennox as he wiped the blood off her hand with a handkerchief. It took a while before she asked.

" What was that? "

Lennox answered indifferently:" Adoption contract. I am officially your grandfather "

"...."
