Chapter 628 628:- Fake King
Dive into Stories, Embrace Enchantment: N♡vεlB¡n.
Seeing how easily 3 Beast Kings were killed within a second, all the troops of the Beast Kings were paralyzed with fear. Drops of sweat started rolling down their cheeks. Right now, no one had the courage to take a step forward. 'Just who is he?'
'He was able to end the lives of three Beast Kings in an instant.'
'This guy is even more powerful than the Beast Kings.....!!'
'How we are supposed to fight against someone like him.'
'Even Lord Eldric looks nervous and scared.' 'What kind of monster is he?' Almost all of the soldiers of the Beast Kings were having similar thoughts in their heads. They were very afraid of this monster. Without even moving an inch, this young man was able to end the lives of the three beast Kings. He did not just kill the Beast Kings, he made their bodies explode. Hiss...!!!
John felt his blood running cold seeing how the three Beast Kings died within a second. 'He did not even move from his place. Just what kind of power is he?' "You were saying something before right? Do you mind repeating your words again?" Harrison asked John with a gentle smile. But John felt that this was the smile of Satan. "I was wrong.....!!! Please forgive me.....!!!" John was about to kneel and beg for his life but an invisible power held him from bending his knees. "Now come on.....!! Even if you're a Fake King, you still hold the title of a King. And A King should never bend his knees before anyone. Not even to me." Harrison might not be a saint but that did not mean that he was a man without principles.
Harrison has always followed his principles. And one of his principles and his belief was that a King should never bend his knees to anyone. "I was wrong.....please forgive me....!!!" John still tried to ask for Harrison's forgiveness.
At this moment, John did not have the Pride and arrogance of a Beast King. At this moment, he was a man who was desperate to save his own life and nothing else mattered to him. As long as he could live there was always a chance for him to rise again. This is John's thoughts. "Forgive you...?" Harrison's eyes fell on Jacob who was standing just a few meters behind. Jacob also looked very scared. "Is that your secretary?" Harrison knew very much about every single Beast King. In the last 9 centuries, he has been preparing for this very moment.
He has very carefully studied everything about all other beast kings. He did this not because he felt threat by the beast Kings, he did this because he wanted to know more about his enemies even though he was strong enough to end their lives within a few seconds and be done with it. Being cautious was one of his core principles and beliefs. Harrison believed that as long as he was cautious in his life there was no way that he could ever get stabbed in the back. It was his cautious nature that allowed him to survive this long despite being cursed 9 centuries ago. Harrison was able to recover his former power a long time ago but he never acted because he was conscious about everything and he carefully planned his every single step till this very moment. The very purpose of his wanting the Dragon grass is to lift the curse that has been placed on his Mana Heart so that he can finally cultivate to a higher order and become the true king of this world. This curse has been preventing him from breaking into Higher orders. For a cultivator, there was nothing more frustrating than not being able to cultivate for nine long centuries. Harrison has been enduring for 9 long centuries. The anger, the pain, and the frustration in his heart were as deep as an abyss. "Yes...!!!" John hurriedly nodded his head. "Alright, I will forgive you if you let me kill your secretary in your place." Not even a second had passed before John appeared behind Jacob grabbed him by the neck and threw him in front of Harrison. "Please...!!!" There was no trace of hesitation or any remorse or any sadness for his secretary who has been with his side for nearly a century now. When it came to saving his life John valued his life more than the life of his secretary. Jacob looked at John in deep shock. 'I served my Lord with my everything for this long. Not even once did I ever think of betraying my Lord yet the very same man to whom I have devoted my life and served with my everything, decides to throw away my life like a trash bag.' 'Lord John, was this my worth in our eyes?' Jacob thought in his eyes. Jacob would have happily sacrificed his own life for the sake of his Lord. Jacob was truly disappointed to see that not only his master did not hesitate for a second, but he even grabbed him by the neck and threw him in front of Harrison to get killed. This hurt more than anything. "Hahaha.....!!! You did not even think twice before sending your secretary to be sacrificed in your place. Just what kind of Man are you.....!!! And yet you call yourself a King.....!!!" Harrison laughed at John. He openly mocked John but John could only grit his teeth and endure the shame so that he could live. "This is the very reason why I called you all Fake Kings." This time Eldric and John felt truly ashamed. "I have seen enough. I think I am going to end this right here and right now. A man like you is deserving of the title of King." Harrison waved his hand. The next second, Jacob died of a heart attack in front of Harrison. He made Jacob's death as painless as possible. Even though they were on different sides, Harrison appreciated a man like Jacob. He was a man worthy of respect.
However, John's death wasn't so painful. Harrison's eyes dangerously glowed in red. John suddenly clenched his heart as he felt his heart burning from inside. Cough....!!!
John coughed out a large mouthful of blood before falling to his knees. He wasn't just coughing blood, he was also bleeding from his eyes and his nose. Ahh...!!!
