Chapter 431 Chapter-431

"You are going to leave us here? In the middle of a forest? Are you serious ?" Ella's voice was laced with surprise and concern as she watched Anon and Faith preparing to depart on the Three eyed Raven.

Anon, his demeanor still calm, reassured her, "We are, Luv. But don't worry, I'll send someone to retrieve you as soon as I reach the city.

I will also tell them to only send royal guys because you won't talk to Commoners, okay ?

Now, let's go baby..." Anon said as he affectionately stroked the raven, it immediately flapped it's wings and took off high into the sky.

"We'll be looking forward to your help, Sir Jule." Julia called out loudly.

With a hint of accusation and a smile on her face, Faith interjected, "You are a jerk. Do you know that, Mr. Jule ?"

Anon, feigning innocence, asked, "Why would you say that, luv? I thought you liked the ice-cream last night."

"Why would you take me with you and not them? Ella even had her match today." Faith's asked with a cute and naughty smile as she looked at Anon.

Anon countered with a smile of his own, "Well, because I'm not dating Ella, Luv. I'm dating you. That's why I took you with me."

Faith's expression suddenly saddened, tears begin to well up in her eyes and she responded calmly, "Mr. Jule, you don't have a future with me. You are like a free bird and I am a chained soldier. We don't have any future."

Anon remained calm and replied, "Well, we'll see about that in the future. Why worry about it for now? Just enjoy the ride."

With a tearful gaze, Faith continued, "No, you don't understand. I'm a woman who will sacrifice herself for this kingdom, without even thinking about you or anyone else. You have no future with me.

I am also 450 years more older than you."

Anon, maintaining his composure, asked calmly, "So, what's the real issue here, again? The kingdom's sacrifice thingy or the age?"

Faith hesitated for a moment before responding, "Well, both of them. What I'm trying to say is, you're wasting time with me. You should go out and look for a girl your age."

Internally, Anon mused, 'She can say that with a whopping 30% mind corruption? That's some willpower, and I will enjoy breaking it. I will break her througly and slowly.'

He inquired further, "So, are you proposing a breakup with me, Luv ?"

Faith hesitated, then eventually confessed, "Y-Yes... and don't call me love, anymore."

Anon concealed his intentions beneath a calm exterior. 'Yep, I already predicted this situation. If you want to manipulate someone's mind, you have to study their behavior and history thoroughly.

Faith and her husband had some serious relationship issues when they had their first children 150 years ago. Her husband demanded that she leave her job to attend to their children, but Faith refused. Her husband resorted to violence, but out of love, Faith initially did nothing.

After a few days, she eventually proposed a divorce, but before it could be finalized, her husband died in battle. That's why she doesn't see any future with me. She thinks I will do the same things that her husband did with her.

But just you wait, darling. I will turn you into someone who won't give a damn about this kingdom and give me 100% of your loyalty.'

Anon continued his conversation with Faith, saying, "Well, I guess this is it, you are not my girlfriend anymore and I am not your boyfriend from this moment. Hold on tightly..."

"Why?" Faith asked through her tears.

"Just do it. We won't make it to the Colosseum at this speed, i am going to increase our speed." Anon instructed.

Faith obediently gripped Anon's hand and closed her eyes. Anon reached out and touched the raven's back.

"Give me some more speed baby...." Anon spoke.

Cawwwww

The three-eyed raven emitted a loud cry and took off, soaring through the skies at an incredible speed.

At the Colosseum...

"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the contestants of our first match, Mr. Perci... He is a very intelligent and promising young man from his academy and from his class too." Sam announced.

Clap-Clap-Clap

The audience applauded as Perci made his entrance from the left side of the Colosseum.

Fiona, concerned, questioned her butler, Charlie. "Where is Mr. Jule, Charlie?"

Charlie responded calmly, "My Queen, Mr. Jule left with Mrs. Faith last evening to investigate a case in the Dark Elven territories. However, we received information that they were attacked by a team of professional Croc-Assassins on their way back."

Panicked, Fiona asked, "What? Is he dead? Please, Charlie, say that he's not dead."

Charlie reassured her, "No, ma'am. Upon receiving this news, I immediately dispatched my team to search for them. We found their carriages in the middle of the forest. It appears the Croc-Assassins were hired to delay his arrival at today's match."

"Fuck..." Fiona cursed as she sat back down and grabbed her head.

"We also found two Dark elfs sitting inside the carriage, my Queen." Charlie added.

"Were they with the Assassins ?" Fiona asked.

"No, ma'am. Those two were Julia and Ella." Charlie replied.

"What ? The commander and Vice-Commander of the dark Elfs ?" Fion asked with a confused expression.

"Yes, ma'am." Charlie answered.

"What did they say ? What happened to Mr. Jule ?" Fion asked with a hopeful expression.

"Well, they said that Mr. Jule and Mrs. Faith left the place on a three eyed raven to reach here.

Fiona, bewildered, asked, "A three eyed, Raven ? Isn't that a demonic pet?"

Charlie clarified, "Yes, ma'am, and a royal one at that. They claim that Mr. Jule is on his way here, but I can't be certain. Should we trust them ?"

Fiona, resigned to the situation, said, "What other choice do we have?"

Charlie offered his apologies, saying, "I'm sorry, ma'am."

As the Colosseum event continued, Sam announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, please have a big round of applause and welcome Mr. Jule, who is fighting for the Royalty."

Clap-Clap-Clap n(/o--V/-e./l(.B.-I(-n

However, Anon did not make an appearance from the right side of the ring and made everyone wonder in confusion where he was.

'Something's not right. Did I miss something?' Sam pondered as he scrutinized the right-side hall closely.

A messenger approached Sam and whispered something in his ear, immediately. Sam nodded in acknowledgment.

"Very well, ladies and gentlemen. It seems Mr. Jule is not currently present in the Colosseum," Sam announced to the audience.

"According to the rules, if Mr. Jule does not enter the arena within the next ten minutes, he will be disqualified from this event. According to our Queen,Perci will be declared the winner by default."
