The Villain’s Daughter Plans To Run Away

In the afternoon the next day.

The castle of the Law Kingdom, which was defending its pride alone, looked particularly small from day to day.

The stockpiled food was almost running out.

The condition of the gatekeepers, who were hit directly by the situation, was also not good.

“… Mmm… Ugh!”

The knight’s neck, which had been dozing off for a while, twisted in an instant.

“Aaakh!”

Flutter, flutter.

A flock of crows, startled by the knight’s scream, cut through the air of the castle.

Cassis was waiting in front of the iron gate of the castle with an expressionless face.

Dingㅡdingㅡ

“I-Intruder!”

“An intruder has appeared! Everyone, gather in our spots!”

A belated emergency bell.

Knights finally rushed in front of him, who stood like a huge mountain.

Against a serious situation.

“…”

Cassis’s face was numb to the point of boredom.

He immediately opened the letter in his pocket.

The letter stamped with the lion pattern was a message from the Imperial Palace of the Rolls Empire.

[Based on Article 12 of the Death Penalty Law of the Rolls Empire, it is determined that it is an emergency under the authority of Emperor Alec of Goldmoon. Deliver the death penalty commission of the rebel country to Cassis Vallois of the four largest families.]

The thunderous shouts of the knights drew closer.

“It’s an intruder!”

“Arrest the intruder!”

When the iron door opened, knights poured out.

Cassis, who had been reading the letter for a long time, entered the crowd with an expressionless face.

***

Aaaaakh.

Uaaaaagh.

A group of excited buffalo-like knights rushed into his field of vision.

However Cassis knew.

Above the knights running as if rushing on the ground.

That the queen was watching them as she closed the curtains on the window.

Zing.

“Aaaagh!”

Cassis lightly cut the knights without even looking at them.

His cloudy purple eyes were fixed tenaciously on the second-floor window with the curtains closed.

How unusual.

‘She must be well aware that it was her who got caught in the mousetrap.’

Yet for some reason, the queen was looking down on him with an arrogant gaze.

Zing.

Is the personality itself stupid?

It was an action that couldn’t be done unless there was a backup.

“Ugh, aaaagh!”

After that, a general massacre ensued.

The battle cry of the knights gradually turned into shouts.

It seems that they felt hope after seeing that Cassis came without a single escort knight.

The Law Kingdom couldn’t have known.

The problem was that the Duke came alone without any knights.

The reason why Cassis has been accompanied by knights in the meantime was to protect the ‘empty formalities’ that the nobles consider more valuable than their own lives.

In fact, the knights were inconvenient for Cassis.

Giving orders was rather a drag on time, and today he came as a father, not a noble.

The children sought physical evidence.

He was a very bad father.

Thus, at least it was unacceptable for the children’s efforts to go to waste.

Zing.

Did they say Vallois, who dedicated blood and victory to the Imperial Family?

His cheek, as clean as white jade, was splattered with blood, yet he seemed more free than anyone else.

Around the sword glowing blue light.

Every time a knight’s head fell, the knights around him collapsed without being able to overcome his Magi

Crushing the heart and organs of the human body with the physical power of Magi.

It was a destructive skill that Cassis possessed.

Zing.

When Magi that rose around the sword like that eliminated the last knight.

Drip, drip.

Blood dripped from the tips of his fingers.

The knights who had poured out their last feelings to defend the Law Kingdom were piled up like a grave behind the heels of his shoes.

Cassis arrived at the front door and raised his head.

It was only 10 minutes.

Bang!

Focusing Magi on the heel of his shoe, he pushed through the last iron gate, and the giant gate over 3m collided with the wall of the opposite castle due to the recoil.

“W-Where are you?”

Climbing up to the second floor.

The queen’s surprised voice burst out at the sound of Cassis’ footsteps.

“Knights! Where are you all! Isn’t there any survivoooors!”

‘She should have had time to run away, but is she really stupid?’

He hesitated for a moment, but soon gave up his thoughts.

It was a woman who would die anyway.

Having any emotion other than anger would be a waste of time.

Yet the queen rose from her chair in a state of bewilderment, as if she didn’t know that she was going to die.

However, soon.

Faced with Cassis, who was walking slowly, her face turned pale.

“M-Motheeer!”

The queen, her hands shaking, collapsed on the spot.

The princes who were guarding her side supported such queen.

“M-Motheeeer. So let’s run away…”

“I can’t believe it. Vallois can’t do this to us. I’m sure the Imperial Family won’t do this to me…”

“You touched my daughter.”

The queen’s weeping words to herself were stopped abruptly by something thrown by Cassis.

Thudㅡ

“…”

The queen’s gaze, which had been looking at her son, was lowered at the heavy sound.

Soon, a faint sound began to resound like thunder.

“Kyaa, kyaaaak! Aaaaagh!”

“Just know you touched me.”

In front of the high heels she was wearing, the video stone was spinning.

[In conclusion, they couldn’t kill Vallois.]

[If I ask them again…]

[This means that there is already a mountain of debt that needs to be paid back.]

Thudㅡ

Cassis watched the video with the screaming queen.

And as soon as the decisive sentence came out, he turned off the video with the heel of his shoe.

“…!”

It was then.

The sword of the Law Kingdom came out.

Did they think the water had already been spilled?

After seeing the evidence, the princes hesitated as if they had no place to retreat and started grabbing their swords.

“The Imperial Family will not let you go! Even if you bring this kind of evidence, there is no way to bring a sword to the Kingdom of Law, which has officially admitted defeat, without any formalities! If the Imperial Family knew this…”

“That’s a matter for Vallois to care about.”

He was slowly running out of patience at the constant defeat.

Shall he show them the letter from the Imperial Palace?

No.

There was no reason to be formal with the thugs who tried to kidnap his daughter.

“Hiyaaaah!”

It was then.

The two princes, who were looking for an opening, charged at the same time.

Cassis, lightly turned around and struck with one of the swords, knocked the other prince out with a blow to the neck as a bonus.

“M-My son…”

When the queen, who was almost gasping for breath, tried to draw out a poison.

“Kyaaak!”

His huge hand led her by the collar.

“I didn’t kill him, he fainted. I don’t kill children in front of their parents like you do.”

He took the poison from the queen’s hand and threw it on the floor.

“It wasn’t enough that you cut off communication on the subject of the defeated country, you even tried to kidnap the Princess of Vallois. Even when your courage knows no bounds, it has exceeded the limit.”

Because of her height, the queen’s feet in his hand floated in the air.

Thanks to that, he could feel the queen’s face red as she was choked by her necklace, yet Cassis was unmoved.

“T-This is a setup. I don’t know how that video was manipulated, but we just…”

Crack.

The excuse ended with the queen’s gaze suddenly falling.

Having killed the queen, he went down the cellar without hesitation.

“… M-Mother…”

It was then.

The princes, who barely opened their eyes, had no choice but to fall into a deep depression.

Between the glass bottles Cassis broke.

A black liquid designed for suicide seeped between the ears of the fallen princes.

***

Creakㅡ

He opened the basement door shown in the video.

A small body was lying in a corner.

It was really the yellow hair.

As he approached him, he paused for a moment.

The actual space was bigger than in the video.

A place where the air was too scarce for people to live.

It was to the point of hesitation, but he readily agreed, realizing the queen’s temper he had just experienced.

Sian was fainting.

Cuffs and ankles tied behind his back.

Even in Cassis’ eyes, there were traces of abuse that made him frown.

‘Has the child been brought to this point just because the abduction failed?’

“…He used to be a commoner in the Law Kingdom, but it seems like he was unlucky enough to join the suicide squad.”

It was a common thing in war.

It was better to put slaves in than to lose knights to an unlikely plan.

Of course, that didn’t apply to him.

Because Cassis always moved directly.

Just as he was about to get closer to Sian.

“I’m greeting Your Grace the Duke of Vallois.”

He heard the voice of a man with strong stamina behind him.

Looking back, they were the knights of the Imperial Palace.

“As far as I know, the power of attorney for the death penalty was handed over to me, though.”

When Cassis opened his mouth, several of the knights flinched at him.

Cold sweat was streaming down the faces of the knights who weren’t shaken.

When they met eyes with the rumored lunatic, the family head of Vallois, they clearly were afraid of future repercussions.

“…Yes. you’re right. However, confusion arose in the process.”

“What is it.”

“The Imperial Palace has determined that Prince Peter isn’t guilty of the attempted assassination, kidnapping, and spying of Vallois.”

At those words, Cassis put on an exhilarating expression.

“Aah, what a pity. I’ve already killed the presumed princes.”

“That would probably be Prince Janis and Nick.  Prince Peter is in front of Your Grace.”

At that, one of his eyebrows raised.

Cassis just nodded.

“He’s a prince?”

It was hard to believe.

No matter how precarious they are, what parent would neglect their child like that?

“Prince Peter was a hostage for the Imperial Family during the war against the Law Kingdom, but it turns out that he was manipulated by the Law Kingdom. It’s believed to be black magic.”

Black magic.

Was it the energy hidden under the clothes of the yellow hair?

“They said they had a hostage, so it was that yellow hair.”

In fact, the Imperial Family first offered Vallois a hostage.

However, Cassis handed over all authority in the Law Kingdom to the Imperial Family because his judgment of the situation was blurred in all parts except for Vivian at that time.

“First of all, the Imperial Palace judged that it was necessary to investigate black magic and handed it over to the judge. The rest of the criminals are mandated to die…”

It’s an Imperial letter.

He accepted the message from the knight commander, whose hands were shaking slightly.

The content was simple.

Along with the words of asking for his understanding, it was a request to participate in the trial of Prince Peter and the tea time to be held soon.

“What about the trial.”

“It’s two weeks later.”

Cassis, who glanced at Sian, sighed.

Although he didn’t like it.

He had nothing more to say if they said it was handed over to the trial process according to the law.

And he even executed the queen of the kingdom.

There won’t be any assassins appearing for a while.

“Take care of it.”

Eventually, when the disapproving consent fell, the waiting knights rushed into the basement.
