For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

Chapter 85

The night was at its peak, warping the entire sky in darkness. Aside from the barking stray dogs, nothing could be heard but passing winds and the horses' heaves tapping on the ground.

Gradually, the carriage stopped in front of a small inn. The inn wasn't fancy-looking but still considered decent. Once the door was kicked open, the innkeeper exclaimed at the intruder.

" Ah! Lord Shainl, easy on the door! "

Like his usual mannerless self, Lennox walked into the inn as if he owned the place. The innkeeper was a muscular man in his forties, he sighed at his cracked door as he served liquor to the young man sitting on the counter.

Lennox frowned at Ajiad's blazing eyes. He purposely sat two chairs distance away from him, sipping on the honey milk the innkeeper served with some cookies.

" you arrived earlier than expected, lord "

"Hn. Things went smoothly "

From the corner of his eye, Lennox saw Ajiad slowly sliding his chair towards him but be didn't bother with it, instead, he directed his words to the innkeeper who was stunned at the sight of a fine young man suddenly turning crazy.

" Elias, do you know a good doctor with tight lips? "

Hearing that, Elias, the innkeeper, looked confused for a moment before glancing at Ajiad and making an "aha!" sound. Lennox knew what went in his mind and corrected him with a sigh.

" No, it's not for him, although I will get him one soon "

" it's fine if they aren't human, right? "

Lennox nodded. By that time Ajiad had crossed half the distance between them. Once he saw Lennox glancing at him, he paused his movement and stared back with notice-me-senpai eyes.

" in that case, then there is this owl. She is a bit old but definitely reliable "

" However? "

Elias laughed awkwardly. Lennox saw right through him. If she really was excellent and trustworthy, how come he never heard of her?

" actually, the madam is hard to please. Money doesn't lure her, and honestly, I don't know what exactly does she want "

"Hm. Find a way to contact her, just say that a honourable being is requesting her service and see how she responds "

He said this then smacked Ajiad on his face. The dude crawled all the way to him, before grabbing Lennox's hand smooching and rubbing on his face.

" THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!! "

" Lord is so heartless! Why am I the only one not allowed to touch you?!!! "

" THEN STOP ACTING LIKE A FUCKING WHORE!! "

Ajiad whined endlessly, and Lennox had no time to deal with another crybaby, Everly and Bun-Bun are enough!

" Forget it, why are you here? "

" oh! This came for your excellency from YanYin continent "

Lennox received the sealed envelope with a sly smile on his face. Completely ignoring Ajiad who was sticking to him like a monkey on a tree.

******

After finishing his work for the day, Lennox returned to the imperial palace. He headed to Annasophys' chambers straightaway the moment he arrived.

" So are you keeping it or not? "

Lennox's tone was so casual as if he was asking them to choose between hard cookies or soft cookies. To him their answer was already on display, he just asked out of consideration.

" We.....decided to abort the child "

Roan pursed his lips faintly upon Annasophy's words. He obviously doesn't approve of this decision but Annasophy somehow managed to persuade him. He held her hands and kept his silence the whole time.

" Although I will be losing face to kill my blood relative who can't even defend themselves, it should be the most rational decision "

No one responded, naturally, he wasn't waiting for one.

He took two cards from his waist bag and poured magical energy into it. One card turned to a knife and the other to an orange mana crystal. He still had his sword on him, yet chose not to unsheath it.

" I will arrange your abortion place and necessitates, however, the time is bound by a coincidental opportunity. Which means we need to keep our little friend inside you for the longest possible until a chance occurs "

" huh?! And how am I supposed to do that?!! Gulp it down like food? "

Lennox walked closer to them as he grabbed Roan's hand that wasn't holding to Annasophy's. He said in an untrustable manner to the couple.

" ah, I got this. Just calm down and try not to faint. And you, young man, try not to die "

Once he said that, Lennox slashed Roan's palm with the knife in his hand. Blood downed like rivers, they didn't have the chance to rebuke as Lennox muttered something.

< Romeldasious >

The mana crystal shattered vigorously. All lamps and lights extinguished, but the room didn't fall into complete darkness. Roan's blood started gleaming with golden shine, roaring and forming whirl with the three of them at its centre.

Roan held Annasophy in his arms shielding her from his own blood. He didn't know what to do, Annasophy was scared stiff, unmoving, and the crown prince was randomly spouting undecipherable words like crazy.

[ Whom? ]

< We serve the almighty one, chosen obedience since birth, willingly drinking from Lai river and answering thy summon with benevolence >

[ This good's desire? ]

< The honoured me has fallen to our heart's greed and is shamefully requesting thy authorization to interfere with the flow of nature >

[ permitted ]

It did not take long before the blood-whirl subsided and lights reignited. Roan tightly held the unconscious Annasophy as he panted for air like crazy. Cold sweat covered him from head to toe, looking like a drenched cat, he stared at Lennox in disbelief.

The later clapped his hands and casually said as if he hadn't flipped their entire existence upside down just a moment ago.

" Okay, all done. I did tell her not to faint, but she is useless "

"W, what- did, just- "

" Hey, take it easy. I just rested the fetus's timeline, your child will grow extremely slowly, one day of growth for normal humans, he will grow it in a month "

Roan had a dumbfounded expression, he barely understood what was going on. Lennox had no intention to explain any further, he pulled another card that turned to a bottle of blue liquid and threw it at him. Roan caught the bottle instinctively, but still looked petrified.

Lennox said one thing before walking out of the room.

" that's invisibility potion "

Roan looked at Lennox leaving before shifting his gaze to the bottle in his hand the unconscious Annasophy. Few seconds passed and the door opened again.

" by the way, it's a boy "

"....."
