Chapter 324: Time to Rebel Against Humanity(2)

A chain suddenly emerged from thin air, binding Desmond's body and sucking all of his energy. He observed the people's expressions as most of them were disgusted while Diana and Elizabeth fell on their knees.

[The system detects unknown energy is trying to invade the host's body.]

[Eliminate Y/N ?]

"Don't make any sudden movements, boy. You can still live, but your crimes will be judged in the palace," Weston spoke. His muscled body towered over him as his gaze looked down on him.

"Can I ask a question? Where is my sister," Even though he was surrounded and seemed to be humiliated, he could still calmly ask about his sister.

The chains only bound his boy; he could still freely move his hands and feet. All of those students stared at him with chains on his body that looked like a beast that was caught.

"Your sister? Did you mean her?" One of the white-robed people chanting a spell behind him.  A magic circle emerged from thin air, letting out a stone prison with Alice being stabbed with the stone spikes on her body.

Her condition was terrible. A lot of blood dripped out from the stabbed parts, and it seemed she was unconscious because losing too much blood as she just lowered her head even knowing her brother in front of him.

"Unlike you that we could be still able to talk, she was really stubborn and kept fighting when knowing her brother going to be arrested. " The white-robed man spoke while tapping his hand on Alice's smooth hands.

Desmond soon saw Alice's state; he was furious and wanted to kill and grind that white-robed man into death. However, this emotion dimmed down when he saw Alice still breathing.

"Oh, I also got a lady that seemed to be her servant. However, I am truly sorry; she died sacrifice herself to protect your sister from being hit on the vital part." The white-robed man continued with a face of guilty.

Academy people were carrying a person's body with a stretcher. White clothes were seen, covering the person's entire body with only showing the head.

"We will take care of the funeral. Even though she made mistakes, death was not the best solution. If she did not resist, maybe she would be alive by now. "

Desmond glanced at the dead body of Felix's daughter. Although he just knew her from Felix, he understood how his sister felt and how shocked she was, knowing her best or closest person died in front of her.

After gazing for a moment, silence descended to the situation. All of them wore a look of regret written over their faces when they noticed one of the human potentials died on their hands.

Desmond glanced at the map on the corner of his view and found the blue dots he marked as an ally or his family's subordinates had slowly vanished one by one at the Capital City.

He also noticed that the blue dots on this city were moving bit and scattered around the Guild District. It seemed they were running from those soldiers while some of them chose to stay.

When he glanced at the young generation and saw Edison, Greyson, and one blue-haired boy he did not know was showing a smug to him, while Gibson's smile grew wider upon seeing his state.

"Humans are sometimes very funny and annoying, right?" After a long silence, Desmond finally spoke to the people that surrounded him. He could feel the sharp tip from those soldiers' weapons that were ready to stab him anytime.

Nevertheless, no one answered or replied to his word as the people just stared at him with their mouths closed.

"Principal, or Grandmaster Weston, you should know the background and the reason why we joined this kingdom, right?" Desmond added as he saw Weston furred his brows.

"Yes, your family are being hunted by Imperial Empire Assassins." Weston openly spoke with a loud voice and revealed his background making the people look at Desmond in disbelief.

"So, did you also know that those assassins kept coming attacking me? Even when I on the way to this city."

"So those assassins were targeting you, kid," Vesta emerged from behind his daughter, who looked shaken by the fact. He held Diana's shoulder while looking at Desmond's curiosity." Never I thought the kingdom really hid this fact."

When Desmond heard his words, his eyes widened for a moment and then realized before looking back at Weston with a meaningful gaze.

"*ehm* I don't hide anything as I have reported the matter of your family to the king as soon your parents agreed to join this kingdom.

"But, I had sent you Steel Legion as my promise to protect your sister when she went to this city. Eventually, there is nothing happen to her as she just arrived safely, right?" Weston glanced at Veronica and nodded.

Her face was twitched upon seeing Alice's state, but then when she remembered how her brother killed her members, her expression turned indifferent.

"Boy, you also received the protection from Guardian, Vesta, right?" Weston continued when Vesta slowly got closer to Desmond.

"Yes,"

"See, so we both already completed the agreement between your family and the kingdom. As for your crime, your entire family needs to be investigated, and you will be prisoned to wait for the further decision."

Desmond stared at him deeply and then began shifting his attention toward the map that showed many blue dots that vanished one by one.

His words are true, which means only Grimm is left, he thought. Apart from the evil organization and imperial empire, his remaining enemy was Grimm. If Weston's word was true, those soldiers that hunting down his subordinates must be bribed by him.

As he pondered about this matter, he glanced at Matson, who just showed an evil smile to him.

"I understand, and thanks to all of you for taking care of my sister," Desmond replied as his gaze softened upon seeing the bleeding Alice that was imprisoned. "Did she make trouble all this time?"

The people were confused by his question, but Jessy suddenly stepped forward with her cold gaze landed on his body," No, she was a talented student, but a pity she becomes your sibling." Her tone really sounded like she was regretful, as if she was the mother of Alice.

"I see, so this is the end." When Desmond spoke, he looked at the ceiling with a hopeless expression.

"You still have to face your responsibility. You may not die, but your life will be worsened than now," Looking at his expression, Quinn, the teacher that one admired, his braveness and politeness when he just arrived at the portal, spoke deeply.

However, Desmond just smiled at all of them without saying anything. This is not my end, but yours.

Eliminate.

[Starting to eliminate the energy that restraining the host's body...]

As soon Desmond commanded the system, Weston's expression began to change. He glared at Desmond, trying to find how did he manage to disturb his spell.

"Attack him!" When Weston sensed his spell had vanished, he looked at Desmond in disbelief and immediately ordered the people to attack him.

At first, the people were confused by the orders; the mage and the soldier looked at each other and then focused on Desmond, who stayed still without further movement.

"What are you waiting for?! Kill him!" On the other hand, when Vesta saw Weston's panicked expression, he pressured those people and shouted.
