Semua Bab Substitute Queen's Revenge: Bab 321 - Bab 330

"Conan, it's been a few days since we last met. How have you been?" Jocelyn asked first with concern.Conan didn't want to resent her, but recalling the hurtful words she had spoken that day, it was difficult to face her with the same admiration he once had."Thank you for your concern, Commander," he replied courteously. "I'm doing well."He had wanted to tell her his mother was dead. That she had perished in agony from hunger and illness.But before he could, she asked, "How did you come to know Henry?"Conan casually made up a lie. "It's just a matter of chance."Jocelyn felt relieved. It seemed he still didn't know Jane's true identity. And Jane, most likely, wouldn't tell him to keep him from being entangled in the matter.She made a pained expression and got to the point."Conan, the reason I refused to take you as my apprentice that day was that I couldn't bear to see you sent to the battlefield to die. Your father and I were good friends. I still can't get over his deat

Jane needed a token of royal pardon to ensure that if the truth ever came to light in the future, the king would not hold Kennedy accountable. She also knew that to obtain this token of royal pardon, she had to achieve great merit."You don't have to give it to me now," she said. "If you ever encounter a problem you can't resolve, come find me at Safe Haven Pawnshop. Just ask for Henry."With that, she placed a silver coin on the table, picked up the longsword leaning against the chair, and left without a word.Right outside the door, Karlsen happened to meet Henry's gaze as he departed.He had been curious about what the famous Shadow Phantom of the martial world looked like. But the person wore a mask. There was nothing to see.Shortly after, the king emerged as well.Karlsen stepped forward and awaited instructions.George looked ahead and spoke calmly."Free the women who were forced into performing here and send them home.""Yes!" Karlsen placed his hand over his chest an

Reunions and separations were part of life.Learning that this was the last time Henry would guide him, Conan felt deeply saddened. But he also knew that sooner or later, he would have to join the army.Henry had taught him a great deal, especially in the art of war, which had benefited him immensely.At their parting, Henry gifted him a spear. Upon receiving the gift, Conan's eyes lit up."Master, how did you know I love spears?"He immediately tried it out and found it an excellent weight and length. The spear sliced through the air and struck the ground with immense force. It felt as if it had become an extension of his body. It was like an extension of his arm.He had never wielded a weapon so perfectly suited to him.Gradually, Conan's eyes filled with excitement. After performing a set of spear techniques, he knelt down at once."Thank you, Master! This is the best gift I have ever received!"He vowed to use this spear to achieve great feats and bring honor to Henry's na

Wilhelmina arrived at Zen Palace, only to be told that the queen was resting and not receiving visitors.The situation was already critical, yet the queen could still sleep?Wilhelmina didn't leave. She simply waited.Two hours later, a royal servant finally came with a message."Lady Wilhelmina, Her Majesty is awake. Please come inside to speak with her."Wilhelmina's purpose for coming was simple. She had no intention of hiding anything. After paying her respects to Wendy, she got straight to the point."Your Majesty, do you know that while you've been staying in the forbidden palace, Lady Rachel has been enjoying herself immensely? King George has been giving her the finest tributes from all over the kingdom."Forgive me for speaking out of turn, but even when you were carrying the royal heir, you never received this many rewards. And Lady Rachel just loves flaunting her favor. "She even takes the gifts His Majesty gives her and hands them out to others. If that's not showi

A lunar eclipse was a rare spectacle. Though there was a curfew in the palace, the patrolling guards were somewhat lax.Jane saw the signal flare from Safe Haven Pawnshop and assumed it was urgent, so she rushed there immediately.The moment she pushed open the door, she sensed something was off. A strange fragrance drifted into her nose in the darkness. Then, she felt a sudden killing intent approaching.Jane swiftly caught the assailant's wrist, blocking the strike. However, the person immediately collapsed into her arms.A soft and curvaceous body pressed against her. It was impossible to shake off."Oh, my dear, I've missed you so much," a sultry voice murmured.Jane sighed inwardly.Trouble had shown up.Valles lit a lamp, illuminating the room. His face was full of guilt, and he dared not look Henry in the eye. After all, he was a traitor who had betrayed the vice leader.Jane mercilessly pushed away the woman in her arms.Vivian rested her chin on her hand with her v
