“Slap!”
A crisp slap sounded.
A soft body fell to the hard floor.
Viscount Samuel’s voice was filled with anger. “Who allowed you to poison him without permission?”
Hannah fell to the ground and held her red and swollen cheek. She chuckled in a daze, “Father has already made a plan and arranged for Goethe’s people to be properly dealt with. However, the information was wrong. There’s an additional Cathayan on the ship. I keep feeling that he’s different and can’t be underestimated, so I made preparations in advance to avoid any variables…”
Viscount Samuel said coldly, “Your poison is the greatest variable! If he discovers it, there will be a huge deviation in the entire plan… Did I give you too much freedom?!”
Knight Lost sat at the side and said indifferently, “Father, there’s no need to be angry. You think too highly of that Cathayan. The poison formula that Hannah used this time was bestowed by the Eldest Prince. Only experienced palace officials, pharmacists, and assassin masters can distinguish it. As for that Cathayan?”
There was no disdain or pride in his eyes as if he was talking about someone unrelated to him. “Haven’t we already tested him a few times? Hong San said that he doesn’t know martial arts. Lynch said that he knows nothing about the military affairs and nobles of Cathay. When we were talking at the banquet, he was actually protecting the commoners. This is very obvious. He’s not a big shot in Cathay at all.”
“There’s no noble in Cathay who doesn’t know martial arts. The nobles of Cathay won’t know nothing about their country, let alone sympathize with the commoners. Only people from lowly backgrounds will sincerely sympathize with the commoners because they’re the same. Clearly, he’s such a person.”
“A pariah with a sharp tongue, a liar, and…” Knight Lost said indifferently, “A clown.”
“Is such a clown worthy of distinguishing the poison given by the Eldest Prince?”
The viscount’s eldest son said, “Although it’s too wasteful to use this poison on that Cathayan clown, you don’t have to be too harsh on Hannah.”
Hannah sat up and touched the wound on her face. She smiled and said, “How is it a waste? You didn’t let me poison Tina because the Eldest Prince wanted her. You didn’t let me poison Knight Cleveland because he’s the son of the Prime Minister of Goethe and is useful in the upcoming battle.”
“In that case, I’ll poison the Cathayan because I have to avenge Knight Glenn. Moreover, I also want to see if this Cathayan will still be as eloquent and proud as before when he’s tortured by the poison. What I like to see the most is all kinds of people with different statuses showing the same expression in front of the same poison and pain…”
Viscount Samuel said with a dark expression, “What if we’re discovered? You all said that Cathayan is a swindler, but how can he be so calm and arrogant as a commoner?”
Lost replied, “I’m afraid he’s even deceived himself. Sometimes, such a pitiful commoner is quite laughable… Father, don’t worry. Even if he’s not a commoner, it won’t affect the plan. We’re fully prepared. The next battle is to plan in haste and to be strong against the weak. Even if there’s an additional Cathayan, it won’t help. Ever since the war began, Goethe’s outcome has been decided.”
The viscount sighed, “I still hope to restrain them peacefully and quietly…”
“Father, times have changed. Since you’ve already made a choice and completely sided with the Eldest Prince and the Empire, don’t have the thought of currying favor with both sides.”
Lost said, “At this point, do you still expect the Grand Duke of Goethe to forgive you?”
Samuel shook his head and was about to speak when he heard footsteps approaching.
The butler knocked on the door. After entering, he did not look at Hannah who was on the ground but said softly, “Lord, Hong San reported that Lord Kang De had just opened the door and only revealed his head. When he saw that there was someone in the corridor, he went back.”
Viscount Samuel’s expression suddenly changed as a bad premonition arose.
A while ago.
In the room, Kang De extracted the wine given by Hannah.
This was… poison.
Kang De’s body shook.
He was in disbelief. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the dark green ball of light. Elements surged into his finger. Kang De pulled out the dagger at his waist and reconstructed it. This poison fused into the blade.
He looked around and saw the fruit on the table. He ran over and raised his blade to cut everything. An apple was cut open, and the flesh of the broken fruit instantly turned black. The poison that had changed the biological tissue was spreading violently.
It was poison.
Moreover, the purity… was extremely high.
Kang De was stunned for a moment before taking a deep breath.
He quickly went to the inner room. There were his luggage and two boxes there. Kang De took off the soft and casual clothes he was wearing. He wore a stabproof suit, a tactical vest, a nail gun, a shotgun, a Molotov cocktail, a flash bomb, the Crimson Blood Flame Edge, the Fire Chaser Round Shield, a fire axe… All kinds of weapons were hung on his body.
He was skilled and fast.
“D*mn… D*mn…”
As he quickly put on his equipment, he muttered to himself, “I didn’t bring enough, I didn’t bring enough things. I should have brought the gas tank too… D*mn, D*mn, what the f*ck is going on…”
Should he go back to Earth to get it?
No, the transmigration ability could only be used once a day and was extremely strategic. The use of this ability was not only to obtain resources but more importantly, in an extremely dangerous situation, it would provide Kang De with an absolutely safe shelter. In terms of dodging pursuit and hiding his tracks, it could be said to be a divine skill.
In the current situation, he could not use it easily.
“I have to inform Tina and Cleveland first. It’s better to leave…”
Kang De had always felt a huge sense of danger and was wary of foreign lands. The wine Hannah had given him was poisonous, so no matter who had poisoned him, he would not stay here. This was the Glory Sand Castle, Viscount Samuel’s territory. No matter what, he had to leave quickly and pursue this matter.
It would be fine if it was revenge for humiliating Knight Glenn, but if it was a conspiracy against the Goethe people in the entire Glory Sand Viscounty… what should he do?
Kang De’s mind was like a wheel as he quickly made a decision.
The Goethe people were kind to him and he could not let them be in danger… They had to leave together.
With this in mind, he opened the door and planned to look for Tina next door.
However, just as he pushed open the door, Kang De’s heart skipped a beat. He stuck his head out and glanced from the corner of his eye. There was a maid standing in the corridor. When she saw him, she looked surprised and bowed.
Kang De smiled at her and retreated calmly.
“D*mn, I was too rash. That was close…”
He patted his forehead. At this moment, he was fully armed and had equipment of all sizes hanging on his body. Although the maid did not recognize the shotgun, she knew the axe. If this maid saw him dressed up and looking like he was going to slash someone, she would definitely be shocked and terrified. She would even report it. This would alert the enemy.
“Fortunately, Tina is next door…”
Kang De paced on the spot and thought for a moment. He dragged open the wardrobe in the room, revealing the wall. He placed his hand on it and his mental strength seeped out. It restrained the wall in front of him and extracted and unfolded.
The matter gradually turned ethereal, turning into flying elemental light.
Kang De stepped in. This was the cubicle in Tina’s room. He turned and pulled the wardrobe back to cover this opening, then pushed open the door to the bedroom.
What entered his eyes was a brilliant spring light. Tina stood in the middle of the room while Head Maid Bedolla untied her luxurious and complicated dress. Kang De could see her soul-stirring smooth back, like pure white snow.
Tina and Maid Bedolla turned at the sound.
They saw Kang De dressed like an armed soldier, just like on the island.
In the lady’s bedroom, when she was changing, the man barged in.
Tina’s eyes widened and her small mouth subconsciously opened, as if she did not realize what had happened. Then, her face quickly flushed at a visible speed and she was about to scream.
Head Maid Bedolla reacted quickly. She frowned and wanted to curse.
However, in the next moment, Tina suddenly covered her mouth and forcefully suppressed the scream. She even nudged Head Maid Bedolla with her elbow.
Kang De turned around and said in a low voice with his back facing Tina, “Don’t shout! Don’t make a sound!”
His voice was very calm and there was no desire at all. Coupled with his outfit, he definitely did not look like a peeping pervert. Kang De’s usual straight demeanor won the two ladies’ subconscious trust.
“Head Maid Bedolla.”
Kang De said, “I need you to look for Cleveland as if nothing has happened and invite him here. Tina, you have to change out of this outfit as soon as possible and change into an outfit that’s easy to move in!”
Tina whispered, “Kang De, what’s wrong?”
“Time is tight. I’ll talk while you do it!”
Kang De said simply, “Hannah came to apologize to me and gave me a bottle of wine. It’s poisonous!”
Tina exclaimed, “What? How… how is this possible? Sir Kang De, is there a mistake? Hannah likes to concoct some strange wines. Some are indeed more disgusting, but…”
A trace of anxiety appeared in Kang De’s voice, “It’s an extremely poisonous substance! Don’t hesitate!”
Tina was about to say something when Kang De heard Head Maid Bedolla say, “Your Excellency Kang De, please don’t turn around without the princess’s permission.”
Kang De said, “Alright!”
Immediately after, he heard the sound of violent cloth tearing, Tina’s exclamation, and then the sound of clothes falling to the ground. It was obvious that it would take a lot of time for Tina to take off that gown and dress normally, and Head Maid Bedolla peeled the girl clean with the most violent method.
Head Maid Bedolla quickly passed by Kang De and took out her inner armor, boots, robe, and staff from the wardrobe. “Your Highness, please dress yourself.”
She was decisive. She stuffed the clothes into the princess’s hand and said, “Please be quick. I’ll go find the knight now…”
These words were better than any persuasion. The princess hurriedly began to dress. Head Maid Bedolla pushed open the door and left, her footsteps and bearing becoming calm.
Kang De still had his back to Tina and did not move.
Tina put on her clothes slowly. Just the sound of it made people’s imaginations run wild. However, Kang De did not have any romantic thoughts. His heart was cold, and inexplicable anxiety and unease lingered.
“…Kang De.”
The princess endured her embarrassment and said uneasily as she put on her clothes, “Hannah, Hannah won’t do such a thing. Perhaps that Knight Glenn has a grudge, or…”
Kang De could quickly accept this matter because he was an Earthling and had no relationship with the other world. As soon as he encountered this matter, he could immediately change his stance and treat the entire Goode family as a potential enemy without any hesitation. He did not feel any psychological pressure.
But Tina was different.
The Tedrell family and the Goode family were family friends, and Tina often interacted with Viscount Samuel’s family. Goethe and Glory Sand had a foundation of interest, and the official and personal relationship between the two sides was extraordinary. When Kang De said this, Tina’s first reaction was disbelief.
Kang De said in a low voice, “I don’t know either. I’m not interested in the truth at all. The truth is that I was almost poisoned. The entire Glory Sand Viscounty can no longer be trusted. This might only be revenge against me or a conspiracy against the entire Goethe diplomatic mission. I have to leave. To be safe, I hope you can leave together.”
Tina said, “I… I’m done changing…”
Kang De turned around. Tina had changed into a blue robe with gold patterns embroidered on it. She was wearing a pair of white boots and holding a staff. She looked at him with a worried expression. “Kang De, I’m not doubting you, but…”
She said, “I’ve already told Uncle Samuel about the Curtain Invasion. This is a matter of life and death for the world. Moreover, he knows that I sent my aunt the coordinates of the message. If he attacks us, he’ll have to face my aunt’s anger. I think Uncle Samuel must not have participated. Perhaps…”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Maid Bedolla and Knight Cleveland had arrived.
After Cleveland finished putting on his armor, he was about to go out to practice at night when he rushed over. When he heard Kang De mention this, his first reaction was disbelief.
“This is a despicable poisoning attempt, but it shouldn’t have anything to do with the Viscount.”
The knight said, “But Kang De, I can understand your feelings. To be safe, we should leave quickly. After all, we have to be careful…”
Head Maid Bedolla nodded and said, “I agree with the two of you.”
Since the three people present had made a decision, the princess could not insist anymore. She said, “Then how can we leave? What reason? How can we explain it? The captain and some sailors are still drinking in the secondary building…”
Kang De became even more impatient. He glanced at the window and said concisely, “What’s there to explain? We’ll rush out directly! Whoever stops us will be beaten up! If Viscount Samuel doesn’t have any evil intentions, he’ll definitely be inexplicably surprised when he hears about this. He’ll only send people to ask what happened and won’t send people to hunt us down. We’ll rush back to the Penguin and kill anyone with ill intentions!”
“After boarding the ship, we’ll set off immediately and send a letter to tell Viscount Samuel about the poisoning. We’ll ask him to give an explanation. If it’s really a misunderstanding and Viscount Samuel is completely innocent, there’s a way to slowly repair the rift in the relationship caused by this matter. What do you think?!”
The princess whispered, “What about the captain and the others?”
Kang De said firmly, “It’s fine to leave them alone! You have to understand that if the Goode family really has ill intentions, their target is most likely you! If you’re fine, the captain and the others will be fine. We can always find a way to save them. If Viscount Samuel is innocent, the captain and the others will be safer. At most, they’ll be detained for a period of time, understand?”
Cleveland suddenly said, “Wine, where’s the wine? We need physical evidence.”
Kang De was stunned at first and nodded. “Alright, prepare yourself. I’ll go back and get it!”
He wanted to turn around and return to his room through the inner room, but he suddenly stopped in his tracks and listened. To be safe, he slowly stretched out his hand and focused. He extracted the elements and drilled a small hole in the wall.
Through this hole, he spied on his room.
He opened his eyes and looked over, his heart suddenly trembling.
In the room, at the table, Viscount Samuel held the bottle of wine and sized up the remaining wine on the table.
In a flash, the viscount had already sensed it. He suddenly raised his head and shot a sharp gaze in his direction. Through the small hole, his gaze met Kang De’s.
In the next moment…
Boom!
It rumbled like a warhorse galloping. With an explosive bang, Kang De flew back. In the next moment, a sharp sword broke through the hard and thick soil and rocks and almost collapsed the wall!
Kang De said sternly, “Run!”
He raised his head and drank a bottle of strength medicine. Then, he hugged the princess by the waist, knocked open the window, and jumped down from the third floor!
