Newt ordered several royal soldiers to take the ten lifeless bodies of the assassin into the basement to be put in a pit as a dumping ground for their corpses.
Vincent smiled. That bodyguard of his is really great. The state of the palace, which was originally chaotic, here already seems to be improving.
Vincent and Princess Lily also returned to their room. Stick with a tight escort. Someone increasingly propagated, even the soldiers guarding the surroundings. They must not let their guard down. After this incident, the safety of Vincent and Lily will, of course, be greatly paid more attention to.
Pells ordered the other soldiers to clean the thick, red liquid that was in almost every corner of the palace. It casts a pungent fishy scent into the sense of smell.
Pells didn't expect that Newt could easily eliminate and clean up all this mess without needing help from anyone. He was proud.
The soldiers carried ten assassin corpses to the basement. Dragging their bodies cruelly, heartlessly.
The pungent smell from inside the basement also wafted all over. Made those soldiers have to hold their breath.
The traces produced from the assassin's body were immediately cleaned up by other soldiers.
They plunged into the assassin's body. Like taking out the garbage, the soldier also threw the corpses into a big hole in the basement.
A big pit used as an ultimate resting place for traitors and criminals like those ten assassins.
The stench in the big hole made one of the soldiers feel nauseous and spit out his entire stomach, because he couldn't stand the scent. They also decided to get out of the basement as soon as possible.
the next day.
Vincent asked Clark to take the ten bodies to the square for all the people to see.
Without speaking, he also ordered the royal soldiers to take the ten corpses from the pit in the basement.
The royal warrior dragged the corpses of the ten assassins into the square. It makes the people who live around them feel confused. They were horrified.
They erected a huge towering wood. Several middle warriors were busy installing a big rope on the long log in the center of the square.
A small stage that has always been used as a place of execution for the recipient of the sentence.
The knots of the ropes formed a large hole. One by one, residents also came to the square. Instantly filled the place.
Dense, claustrophobic, and stuffy. Residents are pushing for the frontmost position.
It also pushed several young children who were with their parents to the ground. It was almost stepped on by other residents.
Knights made a barrier between the citizens and the hanging wood in the center of the square.
They confronted residents who pushed each other to be at the forefront. Soldiers held them with a wooden fence that asked to be said to the ground as a barrier.
Pells ordered the soldiers to disseminate last night's events.
The news of King Vincent being killed was spread throughout the kingdom. All the people looked surprised to hear it.
They flocked away from home when they heard a word of mouth about the mercenaries whose bodies I hung in the square.
Hearing the commotion outside the house, those inside the house around the square also walked out of the house. They were curious to see who would be hung there.
The ten corpses of the assassin were placed on the ground. Lined up like a fish peddled in the market.
"Who is the mastermind who told them to?" Some residents asked each other questions of the soldiers.
The knights began to lift one body among the ten corpses. A large mine rope also tied the right foot and left leg of the corpse.
Then, several other soldiers who were behind the big pole also pulled the rope tightly. Immediately, the body of the corpse was even more attracted to the top.
Slash!
Newt slashed the corpse's body. Made the blood flow from the corpse's body drip slowly. The unconscious body that has been lifeless since last night still exudes that red, viscous liquid. Someone instantly soaked the gallows stage with blood.
Many residents closed their eyes. Horrified to see the incision from Newt's sword. It is inconceivable if it was one of their family members who was there.
"You brazen hitman!" shouted one of the people in the crowd.
Immediately, other residents followed suit. They screamed, asking who was the mastermind behind the assassination plot was .
"Please calm down!" said Newt.
"We're going to tighten the guard," said Pells, who accompanied Newt in the square.
"Ah, this is so unsettling!" said the residents interspersed with each other.
Some residents picked up stones on the ground. They threw at the ten bodies of the assassin's corpse.
"They deserve to die!" the other citizens shouted. Also threw stones at the ten corpses.
The stone throwing of the people almost hit Newt, Pells, and the royal soldiers who served there.
Pells raised both palms up. Ordered the residents to no longer stone the hitman's body.
"This all happened because King Vincent had forgotten the unstable state of the kingdom too much!" shouted someone in the crowd of the people.
"Yes, that's right!" another chimed in. Immediately, the chaos occurred again.
"Everyone calm down!" shouted Pells and Newt in unison.
The shouts of the people also became louder. Made some of the soldiers' ears aching at their screams.
On the other side, Grand Duke Henry was feeling upset. He shuffled his hair in frustration. Screaming and re-messing up his entire room, which was still messy.
"Brazen! I miscalculated. It's not just Vincent who is a swordsman, it turns out that he has a bodyguard who is also a swordsman.!" he said.
Grand Duke Henry broke all the things that were still left in his room. Whatever it was, it was now shattered with nothing left.
The room, which was originally neatly arranged, now looks as ruined as a broken ship.
Grand Duke Henry sat on the edge of the bed, someone already tangled whose bed sheets and quilts were in a mess.
He was holding his head. Trying to think of something else he had to do to eliminate Vincent, so that he could succeed his nephew as a king.
