515: Shameless
"Your Highness, are we really not going to react to this? According to our sources, the Demon Realm is under attack by the Spirit Realm. Should we not take advantage of the situation?'
Back in the Death Domain, an old man was talking to the person sitting on the throne.
"There's no need for that. The Spirit Realm was entirely destroyed in the war last time. I don't think their remnants are very strong. At best, that can resist the Demon Realm army for a day. By the time we get there, the war would already be over," the young man on the throne replied as he sighed. "Well, only waste time."
"But they would at least be tired after a war. Isn't that an opportunity?" the old man asked.
"You're a Death General Here. You're the most senior person here. Are you really asking that question? As I said, the Demon Realm won't even use ten percent of their stamina to win the war. I know them all too well. Instead, it's better that we wait and focus on our own plan," the Death Domain Prince answered as he sighed.
"If you say so," the Old Man nodded his head and didn't mention it again.
"Anyway, how's the investigation going? We heard that an entire neighborhood disappeared without any trace? Did you find out what happened?" the Prince asked.
"We do have some clues. Apparently it's the work of Jiw. He's the same guy we had arrested for a potential affair with our General's wife," the Death General answered.
"Hmm? That guy?" the Prince asked, frowning.
"That's right. We found traces of poison in food at his place. We also heard about him leaving the city that same day. We are almost certain it's the work for him. We have started searching for him in the entire Death Domain," the Death General answered.
"Oh? Very interesting," the Prince muttered as he rubbed his chin, trying to make a sense of this situation.
"Wait a minute!' Just as he was lazily thinking about this topic, he remembered something. He couldn't help but stand up, shocked.
"What happened, Your Highness?" the Death General asked.
"How many people have disappeared? Give me the exact number now!" the Prince commanded.
"Exactly hundred people," the Death General answered.
"Hundred? That bastard! The Kingship Trial of Demon Realm! It's most probably the work of that bastard! Not only did he kidnap someone from my Place last time, but he dared to come alone in the Death Domain and my Royal City? Not only that, but he even succeeded in killing and finishing his Trial!"
The Prince was seething in anger. He couldn't believe that he was so slow.
"Should we try searching the Entire Death Domain for him?" The Death General asked the Prince.
That also happened to be the time when the door of the Royal Chamber opened as a lady stepped inside the place, followed behind by her guards.
"Lady Romi," the Prince exclaimed in surprise as he saw the lady.
"Young Prince, who are you trying to search for? Did something happen in your place? You lost someone?" the woman asked the Death Domain Prince.
"Lady Romi is the Princess of Dark Tribe in Death Domain. Your Tribe is the second strongest after ours. Of course, I won't hide such things from you. Actually an enemy had most probably barged inside our Death Domain from the Demon Realm sometime ago."
