Villain MMORPG: Almighty Devil Emperor and His Seven Demonic Wives - Chapter 1137

Chapter 1137: You’ll Never Be More Than A Tool Chapter 1137: You’ll Never Be More Than A Tool Villain Ch 1137.

You’ll Never Be More Than A Tool Red_King’s jaw dropped.

He couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

Father^Alex-the quiet, hesitant healer who had always avoided confrontation-was standing up for justice, loud and clear.

Red_King felt something stir in his chest, a sense of pride and admiration for his friend.

They had pushed Father^Alex to speak out so many times, tried to convince him to stand up for what was right, but it had never worked-until now.

And now, here he was, speaking out with a firmness that no one had expected.

The entire room was stunned.

All eyes were on Father^Alex.

But the silence was quickly broken by the sharp clink of Prince Otis’ boots as he took a step forward, his face twisted in anger.

“How dare you…” Prince Otis’ voice was cold, his words dripping with venom.

“You’re just a healer.

A nobody.

You don’t get to speak to me like that.” Otis’ hand moved swiftly to the hilt of his sword, drawing it from its sheath with a metallic hiss.

The sharp blade gleamed as he raised it threateningly, his eyes locked onto Father^Alex with a look of contempt.

But before Otis could make another move, Zael was there, stepping between his brother and Father^Alex, blocking the sword’s path.

His body was tense, but his expression remained calm, his eyes pleading.

“You can have the glory, brother,” Zael said softly but firmly, his voice steady.

“But let him go.

He’s my friend.

He’s the only healer left from my troops.

We were all on the front line.” Otis’ face only darkened further.

His pride had been wounded, and it was clear he wasn’t going to let this slide.

“Your friend?” Otis sneered, his voice laced with mockery.

“You surround yourself with weaklings and think you can command respect?

You’ve always been a disappointment, Zael.

And now, your so-called ‘friend’ thinks he can disrespect the crown?

He deserves punishment for this insubordination!” Zael’s jaw tightened, his hands instinctively moving to his sides as if ready to draw his own sword, though he remained composed.

“If anyone deserves punishment, it’s me.

I’m the one who led them, not him.” Zael’s voice was calm, but there was a firmness to it now, a quiet strength that had been missing before.

“I’ve let you take the credit, Otis.

I’ve let you claim my victories.

But if you need someone to punish, then punish me.

Leave my men alone.” Otis raised an eyebrow, amusement flickering across his face.

“You’re willing to be their scapegoat?

How noble.

But you see, brother, this isn’t about just you.

This is about respect.

About authority.

And when your friend speaks out of line like that, it threatens the balance of power.

I won’t have it.” At that moment, the king stood from his throne.

His gaze was icy as it swept over Father^Alex, then over Zael.

“Zael, you are speaking out of turn.

You’ve always had a soft heart, but this is the royal court, not the battlefield.

Discipline is required, and your friend has crossed a line.” Zael turned to face the king with a mixture of pain and defiance in his eyes.

“Father, he only spoke the truth.

What happened on the battlefield…

it was my doing, not Otis’.

He shouldn’t be punished for saying what is right.” The king’s expression remained cold.

“The truth is what I say it is, Zael.

The people believe what they are told.

And right now, they believe in Otis.

I will not allow a healer to disrupt the order of this court.” Zael’s shoulders slumped for a moment.

But then he straightened again, his voice stronger this time.

“You’ve used me, father.

I’ve let you.

I’ve allowed Otis to take the credit, to stand in the light while I remained in the shadows.

But if that’s the price you’ve demanded, then take it.

Use me, if you must.

But release them.

Let my men be.” Red_King grimaced, unable to stay silent any longer.

“Are you serious?” he muttered under his breath.

“That king is an asshole and your brother is stealing your victory.

Yet you let them?” Father^Alex, who had remained quiet after Zael’s intervention, stepped forward once more.

His voice, though softer than before, was filled with determination.

“Zael is the true hero here.

And you know it.

You can rewrite history in the court, but those of us on the battlefield know what really happened.

You can’t erase that.” The king’s eyes narrowed dangerously, his lips curling into a thin line.

“You overstep, healer.

You forget your place.” But Father^Alex didn’t back down.

“I know my place.

It’s beside Zael and the men who fought for this kingdom.

Not beside those who take credit for something they didn’t earn.” The room was now thick with tension.

All the troops who had been seated were now standing, their eyes fixed on Zael and his group, their hands on their weapons’ hilts.

The silence was deafening, and it was clear that things could turn violent at any moment.

Zael glanced around the room, knowing that any wrong move could spark chaos.

He took a deep breath, then turned back to Otis and the king.

“I’ll say it again.

You can use me.

Take my victories, my honor-whatever you want.

But release them.

They don’t deserve this.” Otis sneered, his eyes narrowing as he took a step closer to Zael.

“You’re pathetic, brother.

Always groveling, always begging for scraps.

You’ll never be more than a tool.” Zael’s shoulders stiffened, his face tightening.

But it wasn’t Zael who felt the sting the most-it was Mila.

“You’ll never be more than a tool…” she muttered to herself, her voice so soft that no one heard her at first.

The words felt like a knife twisting in her chest.

Mila’s mind spiraled into her own thoughts, unearthing a painful truth she had been avoiding for far too long.

It was her.

It had always been her.

She was still just a tool… CREATORS’ THOUGHTS UnholyGod Your gift is the motivation for my creation.
