Chapter 828 - Buckingham Family’s Crisis

Chapter 828: Buckingham Family’s Crisis (Part One)


There are more than ten peak Full Moon Elites? The strength of the Leon Empire sure is great. Huh? Four Sun-Class Lords as well? One is hiding inside the city while the other three are inside the Royal Palace? Hehe, that most arrogant and brightest aura belongs to D’Alessandro, right? This bstard sure is inside Gerland City.


Fei stayed in the sky above the city in stealth and observed; he already had a rough idea about the strength of the Leon Empire.

Since this was wartime, the entire empire was on guard. The protection of Gerland was intricate and detailed. Starting at 50 kilometers away from the gates of Gerland, all the main roads that connected to the Capital of Leon had a checkpoint guarded by elite soldiers every kilometer, and small cavalry teams traveled along the main roads to monitor everything, sending dust into the air.
Outside the mountain-range-like defense wall of Gerland City, two out of the five knight legions of Leon and three main battle legions camped there. Masters were everywhere, and soldiers looked like a flood.
All kinds of military structures and magic towers were situated around the city in order, and the hidden magic arrays made the natural elements in the air more active.


Even in the sky, Moon-Class Elites and riders on demon beasts flew around and kept everything in check.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Fei and Buckingham didn’t enter the city the normal way. Instead, they used the space-traveling ability of the [Throne of Chaos] and entered the Capital of Leon quietly without anyone noticing.

I will bring you to find that mysterious master first, and then I will need to take a trip home.
Buckingham thought about it and said earnestly.
Fei turned around and looked at him.
To Buckingham, this was a difficult decision. He was slandered, and most people believed that he was a traitor of humans. Therefore, his family back at the Capital of Leon must be negatively impacted, and they might be in serious trouble now. Buckingham didn’t know what kind of treatment his family was getting, but he knew that if he returned one minute later, his family would suffer one minute longer.

Go home first.
Fei patted Buckingham’s shoulder and said,
The mission is in no extreme hurry. I will go with you.

Buckingham froze for a second, and he nodded at Fei with a grateful smile.

-Gerland City, Noble District-


This was the most beautiful region in the city. The trees were vibrant, and the scenery was as beautiful as a painting. Only the most extraordinarily prestigious and noble families could have an estate in this region, and they were all relatives of the Royal Family of Leon or high-level nobles. Without enough political power, one couldn’t purchase any properties in this region, no matter how rich they were.
Buckingham Estate was located in the center of the Noble District, and it was once one of the most important places in the empire.
Unfortunately, what happened in the recent half a month changed everything.
Since King Buckingham was charged with the crime of conspiring with the Sea Tribe, he became the criminal in the Leon Empire and in many others’ eyes. As a result, this giant estate was surrounded by the elite soldiers of the Ministry of Supervision, and no one could enter or leave. Anyone who tried to enter or leave by force got turned into corpses.
Under the strict monitoring of the masters in the Ministry of Supervision, not even flies and mice could sneak out, let alone a human.
Right now, the Buckingham Estate was in mortal danger.
It was heard that the nobles in the empire were divided on how to treat King Buckingham’s family. Some people chose to believe in the honor of the Buckingham Family, and some people thought that the rumors were true but still asked the Royal Family of Leon to forgive Buckingham, but most people recommended the emperor to kill everyone in the Buckingham Family to calm the public anger.
During this time, Emperor Juninho’s attitude was mysterious as he continued to stay silent.
Chapter 828: Buckingham Family’s Crisis (Part Two)

Since the Royal Family hadn’t decided on anything, the Ministry of Supervision didn’t dare to do anything rushed. Thousands of guards, maids, and servants weren’t killed just yet, but more and more nobles and royal members recommended Emperor Juninho to execute the entire Buckingham Family under some people’s instigation. The Buckingham Family was in a dangerous situation.


Right now, teams of soldiers were patrolling the outside of the Buckingham Estate.

Creak! Suddenly, the gate of the estate opened.
A beautiful woman in a simple white dress slowly walked out of the gate followed by a few pretty maids.

Stop! No one is allowed to leave!
The soldiers instantly reacted, and they raised their weapons and pointed the blades at these weak women. As they shouted, they looked as if they were facing a dangerous enemy.
That beautiful woman and the maids were terrified. The beautiful woman was a noble lady, and the maids were also used to a peaceful lifestyle; they had never seen such a terrifying sight, and they almost cried in fear.

Don’t misunderstand… don’t misunderstand.
A maid braved up and said,
Guys, she is the wife of King Buckingham. We know that Emperor Juninho His Majesty prohibits people from leaving the estate, so we are not trying to barge out. However, you guys have surrounded this place for ten days, and the food and water are all depleted. Can you please help us get some food? We will pay.

Then, a few maids carried out a chest of gold bars and silver bars with great efforts, and they opened it next. The bright light almost blinded the soldiers.
The soldiers in front of the gate looked greedy, and they gulped. However, they didn’t dare to agree. After talking among themselves a little, one soldier turned around to report to the supervisor.
Clip-clopping noises sounded quickly. More than a dozen cavaliers dashed over, and the feathers on their eagle helmets fluttered in the wind mercilessly. The chest protection on their armor had the redbud flower symbols, representing the Ministry of Supervision.
When they arrived at the gate, they quickly pulled the reins and stopped precisely. It was clear that their riding skills were great.


The burly cavalier in the front jumped off his horse first.
After lifting the black mask, his handsome face was revealed. As he glanced at the beautiful, noble lady who was shivering at the gate, and a sense of desire flashed in his green eyes.
He quickly hid his emotions, and he walked up and laughed,
It is Your Highness! After taking off the fancy dress and the glamorous pieces of jewelry, you are even more beautiful. However, your pitiful look is rare and breathtaking.


Ah? It is you, Merida?
The beautiful woman was pleasantly surprised when she saw this cavalier. She said,
This is great! I didn’t expect to see you today! We have been friends since we were little. Can you help us get some food? Everyone is starving!


Huh?
A playful smile appeared on this handsome cavalier’s face. He walked a few steps forward and asked,
What? Is the Buckingham Estate out of food? It is unbelievable.

It was clear that Buckingham’s wife was a pure woman. Even though she was already married, she looked like a naïve girl. She didn’t discover that trace of desire in Merida’s eyes, and she said angrily with a pout,
Yeah! We were out of food four days ago. We have sent many requests to the Ministry of Supervision, but nobody paid attention to us. This is too much! I will sue them! Merida, you will help us, right? We were such good friends.

The cavalier removed his helmet and laughed,
Yeah, we were such good friends.

Then, he paused and suddenly got closer as he whispered into the ears of this beautiful woman with a cold expression,
Just like you said, we were friends. Too bad that you chose that traitor Buckingham over me, Merida. There is nothing between us now. Why should I help you? You stupid woman. Don’t you realize it? The Buckingham Family is done! No one is willing to help you in the empire. Too many people want you all to die. Therefore, no one will help even though you are starving.
