Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 285

Chapter 285: The Capital City falls by morning
Last night had been a beautiful night of partying.

The entire capital and possibly the country had celebrated the capture of the armless prince.

The king had laughed and even opened his wine house to distribute wine to the people.

Nobles had even traveled from afar to come and celebrate this joyful moment with their king.

However, by the dare of morning, the entire world had flipped over.

Those that slept last night woke up thinking it was still a dream, and those that did not sleep thought that the lack of sleep brought an illusion to their eyes.

Their entire world had truly and totally flipped before their eyes.

And it had happened silently in one night.

Blood from the severed head of nobles, generals and the royal family strolled down the large bold palace walls.

On their faces was the evidence of the unjust they had gone through before their death.

Every member of the royal family was killed. This was from the king to his wives and even children of a very young age.

Chiron did not spare anybody.

Even if it was the baby sucking at his mother’s breast. As long as he was of the royal family, death was the only answer.

Chiron had watched too much movies in his former life about revenge to be so stupid as to let one person get away alive.

Even the maids in the castle and their children were killed.

It was all a precaution he took.

He did not want any bastard child coming after him to take their revenge in the future.

Every thing in the palace was killed.

The heads of slaves were pilled in front of the palace doors for the crowd to see.

While the heads of nobles and military men were hanged on the walls for all to see.

*Dang! Dang!! Dang!!!*

The big bell in the center of the city was rang ceaselessly.

This meant that an announcement was about to be made.

Captain Timi stood before the bell.

In his hand was a scroll. He opened it and was about to read from it.

However, he paused a bit to look at the people before him.

He thought of Chiron’s plans so far and it made him chuckle.

“Citizens of the FORMER Chanland kingdom. I am captain Timi. Under commands of his highness prince Chiron. I bring you great news.”

He looked around at the depressing faces of those that had stepped forward and it made him feel good.

“As you all know or have found out by now, your king and all his noblemen have gone to the yellow river. Also, many of you have lost your cultivation. For most of you, this is many hard years of your life. If you want it back, sign the blood oath contract renouncing the Chanland kingdom and become a citizen of the Vandora kingdom.”

“HUH!!?” The crowd entered a low murmur.

This was the next phase in Chiron’s plan.

Last night, the king had opened his store house to the people to celebrate.

Those barrels of wine had all been spiked with Chiron’s devil elixirs by Emma.

After all, for him to truly win the country over, he needed it’s people.

Of course killing all of them like he did king Ash and his guests was still an option, it was not suitable for the foreseeable future.

Many of these people including guards that were now off duty had drank of that wine, therefore losing their own cultivation.

In a world where terrifying beasts existed. Where men could glide on swords and mortals become immortals, the worse thing for a man was to not have a cultivation basis to back him up.

The king was already dead. The kingdom had fallen.

Now, Chiron was giving them an option.

Sign a blood oath submitting yourself to the rule of the armless prince or loose your cultivation base forever.

There were many that were stubborn, but having to live life without cultivation was hell they did not want to live.

However, who will go first?

Who will it be that shall betray their mother land.

After all, there was always significance in the first and last.

Luckily Chiron had prepared for this.

“I will!” A young man in beautiful clothes stepped forward. From the looks of it, he was a noble.

“My father and brother are already dead. I will have to take care of my mother. I need my cultivation back to do this.”

The young man declared loudly as he walked over to sign the long roll of paper that captain Timi presented.

The moment he signed it, he was able to activate his spirit energy again.

At least, that was the way it seemed.

Seeing the young man activate spirit technique into core beasts, the crowd now in belief immediately rushed to sign the paper with their blood.

Unknown to them, this young man was actually Dylan.

This had all been part of Chiron’s plan.

After all, the capital city would be in need of a little push.

What better push than a noble man giving himself to the new order.

Naturally, the lowly people were going to follow in these steps.

This was an effect that celebrities had on normal people in his former world.

Even if they did not like it, as long as an influencial person was doing it, the common people would be drawn to it.

For Chiron’s former world, it was actors, actresses, politicians, etcetera.

However, in this world, it was either a person with high cultivation base or a person from nobility.

Besides, at heart, this was what the people truly wanted.

All he was doing was an extra push.

None of them knew that this was a trick.

They did not know that this was a country-pumpkin pretending to be a noble man’s son.

Dylan played his part well, and people signed their lives away.

In this manner, Chiron took the heart of the country.

The capital city had now fallen.
