“The Ironfang Pass garrison has long been my man, and now Ironfang Pass is in my control.” Fermin’s expression was unspeakably arrogant. “As long as I give an order, the Virelda Army will be able to attack the Imperial City p>
The ministers were trembling with fear. “What, what can we do p>
Arthur trembled with anger, pointed at Fermin, and stammered, “You… you rebellious son! I have always treated you well, why do you do this p>
Fermin sneered and walked towards the throne step by step. “Father, this world should have been mine. You are old and should have abdicated and made way for someone more capable p>
The Queen also said triumphantly. “Your Majesty, a wise man submits to circumstances. You should obediently hand over the jade seal and let my son ascend the throne, so that everyone can have a better time p>
“How dare you! You dare to challenge the throne? Do you not fear being cursed for all eternity?” Alfred, the Minister of Finance, stood up and scolded the two, pointing at them.
Fermin’s eyes narrowed. “Old bone, shut up! If you say one more word, believe it or not, I will let you be blood–splattered on the spot p>
“I have lived with honor and walked a straight path. Why should I cower before a wretch like you?” Alfred was full of integrity, and he stood up when everyone else dared not speak out.
Fermin had already hated him to the core. Seeing this, he winked at the people around him, and the guard stepped forward and slit Alfred’s neck with a knife.
Blood gushed out, and Alfred fell straight down.
Everyone was so frightened that they were silent, and no one dared to make a sound anymore.
Arthur looked at everything in front of him, his heart torn as though by blades, yet utterly powerless to stop
He never dreamed that Fermin would collude with Ray. If they cooperated internally and externally, Pidence City would be in Ray’s hands.
No wonder Ray could silently kill Ironfang Pass, it was all Fermin’s good deeds.
Presumably, the palace was also under Fermin’s control.
“Father, you’re old and should rest. Guards, escort Father to the Core Palace to rest.” At Fermin’s command, several eunuchs immediately supported Arthur.

Arthur’s face turned ashen with anger, and he pointed at Fermin, constantly cursing, “You rebellious son, Petanion will be destroyed sooner or later in your hands p>
But no matter how Arthur cursed, Fermin remained unmoved.
He even strutted over and sat on the throne, reaching out to pat the seat, his face full of greedy smiles as he said to the Queen, “Do you think I look the part sitting on this throne p>
The Queen nodded excitedly. “You’re the real King, so of course you do p>
She triumphantly turned to the ministers and asked loudly. “What do you all think, my lords p>
The ministers in the hall had long been frightened into quivering masses. Seeing this, they all knelt down. “We pay respects to the King p>
The overall situation had been decided, and their struggles were futile.
Fermin laughed triumphantly. Then he commanded, “Convey my decree to search and confiscate the Xander Manor, leaving no one alive, regardless of gender or age p>
Speaking of which, he seemed to remember something. “Oh, yes, spare Athena’s life and send her to Ray p>
The ministers all looked indignant, but more of them were powerless.
Outside the Xander Manor, two horses came running over, and on the horses were Evander and Natasha.
Both of them were stained with blood, and they shouted loudly before they reached the gate, “Open the door, there is an emergency p>
The soldiers recognized the two and hurriedly opened the gate.
Michael stepped forward, bowed to the two of them, and asked, “What’s the matter with such panic p>
“Fermin is challenging the thron, and the palace has been controlled by him. Now he is going to send Athena to Ray. We are here to report the news p>
