“M-My lord, not now… Please. These guys are innocent,” Preci spoke with a smile.

“Well, if you say so…” Anon spoke as he de-summoned his sickles and looked at the guards with a neutral expression.

The guards looked at them with confused expressions.

“State your—” Before the guards could’ve completed their sentence, Preci immediately interrupted them. .

“Yes, yes, here… I am here as the Royal messenger of the Mystifin kingdom, and I have a very important message for your king right here,” Preci spoke as she showed the Royal Seal to the guards. .𝘤𝘰

“You can go inside…” The guards shouted once again as they opened the big doors, and both of them immediately walked inside the Royal Court.

As soon as Anon entered inside the Royal Court, he noticed that it was filled with venomspires from all sides.

The king was sitting on a throne in the middle of the hall, and his 13 Royal Ministers were seating behind the king.

“Hmm..? A Mystifin and a Human in my Royal Court?” The King asked with a smile.

“I greet the king of Venomspires…” Preci spoke with a smile as she bowed down to him, but Anon continued to look at him without bowing down.

‘What a rude human? He is not even bowing down in front of me, the king of this kingdom? Maybe, he is unaware of our rules… I can let it go for once.’ The king thought as he looked at Anon and decided to ignore his rude behavior just this once.

“Yes, welcome to the Venomspire kingdom… How can I help you?” The King asked with a smile.

“Sir, I come as a messenger of the Mystifin kingdom, and this letter is something that’s been given to me by King Nerzis himself. May I read it out loud for you?” Preci asked with a neutral expression.

The ministers who were sitting behind the king immediately started to talk about this…

“A message for us?”

“Is he going to beg for help, again?”

“I heard a monster named Aegis took over the mermaid and the Siren kingdom; maybe he is taking over his kingdom now,” one of the 13 Ministers spoke.

“Hehe… We should ask for a greater price this time, my King.”

“Shut up and let me listen to the message first…” The king spoke in a loud voice.

As soon as he shouted, all thirteen of them stopped talking.

“Please continue with your reading, Madam Messenger.” The king spoke as he looked at Preci.

“Yes, I will quote everything that our king is saying in this message now…” Preci spoke as she unrolled the letter and started reading it.

“I am Nerzis, the king of the Mystifin kingdom, and this is a surrender notice to the Venomspire kingdom’s King from my side.

This is a final notice, to surrender your crown and swear your-”

“You stupid girl… What are you saying? Do you even realize that you are now standing in the Royal court of the Venomspire kingdom?” One of the ministers asked with a very angry expression.

“I realize it, sir. But, I am just reading the letter that my king gave me…” Preci replied with a neutral expression, just like Anon told her to.

“Let her continue. Continue your letter, little girl.” The king spoke with a serious expression.

“Yes, sir. ‘This is my final notice, to surrender your crown and swear your loyalty to me. Once you swear your loyalty, you won’t have to fear anyone in the kingdom, but if you don’t surrender, then…

The guy standing beside this girl will destroy your whole kingdom single-handedly. Nerzis, your friend or foe… Choose wisely.’ The letter ends.” Preci spoke.

‘What a good letter he wrote… I have to say, this guy has good writing skills.’ Anon thought as he looked at the King with a smile.

“What in the 7 seas is this joke?” Someone shouted from the audience.

“My king, you have to kill both of them.”

“Kill them.”

“Kill them.”

“Kill them.”

…

Everyone in the Royal Court started shouting.

“Lady, can you show me the Royal Seal of your Kingdom?” The King asked.

“Yes, sir. Here…” Preci spoke as she took out the seal and showed it to the King.

“The seal is real…” One of the ministers spoke from behind.

“Does that mean, this is an official message?”

“She can be a thief who stole the seal and wants to start a war between the two kingdoms?” Another minister spoke.

“My King, we should arrest both of them and keep them in a room. Then, we should send someone to confirm if they are really from the Mystifin kingdom because I don’t think the Mystifin king would send a human with such an absurd notice.

I sense something suspicious here…” The minister who was sitting right besides the king spoke.

“Okay, soldiers arrest both of them and throw them inside the confinement room.” The king ordered.

Suddenly, four venomspire soldiers started swimming towards Anon and Preci in order to arrest them.

“Enough with the words… Now, let my sickles speak…” Anon spoke as he summoned his Arcane Slayers and a psychopathic smile appeared over his face.

“Hehe… Die, you stupid snakes.” Anon spoke as he immediately disappeared from his position and reappeared right there in just 1 second.

“Hmm….?” The king suddenly noticed that the soldiers weren’t moving anymore.

“What happened, soldiers? Do-” Before the king could’ve completed his sentence, all four guards got decapitated, and their bodies fell down to the floor.

“What the heck?”

“How did he?”

“He just disappeared for one second and then reappeared; how did he decapitated 4 guards in one second?”

“Are the humans really this strong?”

….

The audience immediately started talking about Anon’s amazing speed and his agility.

“So, it is true huh?” The King asked as he finally stood up from his throne and looked at Anon with a smile.

“Indeed… Surrender your crown or I will take it myself with your life.” Anon spoke with a smile.

“Kid, you are in the wrong Royal Court today. This is the Venomspire’s emp-”

“Shut the Fuck up.” Anon spoke in a deep voice.
