His pair of eyes that had craziness in them suddenly looked scared. It was clear that this guardian of the Imperial Senate who liked skinning others wasn’t interested in experiencing it himself.
“B*stard! So you could get scared as well, huh? I thought a sick b*stard like you would enjoy going through that experience yourself.” Fei gradually approached Trace and used his words to trigger his opponent’s mind mercilessly. It was an invisible torture, and Fei wanted this b*stard to be under endless fear.
Everything was under the king’s control.
When Fei was about three meters away from Trace, a sudden change occurred.
A vicious expression suddenly replaced the fear that was on Trace’s ugly and distorted face, and he waved his hand and shot out a dash of golden sword energy. This sword energy was extremely bright like the stars, and it dashed at Fei like a meteor. Also, the power and pressure this golden sword energy emitted dropped the temperature in the palace by a dozen degrees.
Whoosh! The sword energy was shot out from a scroll, and it was aimed toward Fei’s forehead.
It was so fast that it felt like even space was being cut apart by it.
This golden sword energy was far beyond Trace’s current capabilities.
Right now, Trace had a crazy, vicious, yet proud grin on his ugly face.
The fear and the desperation he showed on his face a moment ago was all a part of his act. He wanted to fool the King of Chambord and make latter drop his guards.
At the moment that Trace thought was perfect, he unleashed his most powerful tool!
Each of the guardians of the Imperial Senate received a dash of golden sword energy that was sealed in a scroll from the great Emperor Yassin. It was for them to use when they were in life-threatening danger, and they could activate the scrolls by injected a slight amount of warrior energy or magic energy into them.
At this moment, Trace felt like he already saw the terrified expression on the King of Chambord’s face when this dash of golden sword energy was about to penetrate his head.
This sword energy was from Emperor Yassin, and it was the most powerful thing in the Zenit Empire.
Trace believed that this dash of sword energy could destroy any enemies.
However, the reality was far crueler than fantasies and dreams.
Just when the wicked smile on Trace’s face got to the brightest, a smile that was filled with mockery appeared on Fei’s face.
The king slowly reached out with two of his fingers and stopped the sword energy that represented invincibility at Zenit between them. Even though the golden sword energy shivered and tried to go forward, it wasn’t able to do so. Before it could even break the skin on the two fingers, it surrendered.
The golden energy flame started to die down, and it slowly vanished like a collapsed sand sculpture.
Trace’s eyes instantly froze and looked defeated. Then, they turned white like a fish’s eyes when it was taken out of the water.
His face got so pale that even a slight shade of red couldn’t be seen.
“Impossible! How…… how can this be? Is the King of Chambord stronger……. stronger than Emperor Yassin?”
This outcome stunned Trace, and he couldn’t believe his eyes! The king easily obliterated his ultimate trump card, and real fear swamped his mind like an endless tsunami. As a result, his body started to shiver uncontrollably.
“Idiot! You are a real idiot! Your idiocy isn’t better than your disgusting face! I already told you that I defeated another b*stard who said he was a guardian of the Imperial Senate, and you are the second one. It means that I already saw this kind of sword energy once; do you think I’m stupid enough not to have my guards up?” Fei looked down at Trace and said with a murderous tone, “What? Is that your last-ditch effort? If you don’t have any other way of fighting back, your first-hand experience is about to start now!”
The chilly words and intense murderous spirit froze Trace’s mind, and his hands shivered rapidly.Unexpected changes occurred again.
Trace suddenly turned around and kneeled. Like Mayor Soroyov, he started kowtowing and begging anxiously as tear and snot slid down his face. “Please don’t kill me! Supreme King Alexander, you are a warrior who is well-loved by the gods! I’m willing to kiss your boots and become your humble and low servant. I’m willing to battle for you, and my Moon-Class strength can provide you with a lot of value! As long as you are willing to spare my life, your will would become my mission, and my life would be under your command!”
Fei was surprised, and a mocking smile appeared on his face again.
It was heard that the most vicious and cruel people in the world were, in fact, timid and weak on the inside, and Trace was this type of person. Even though he was a Moon-Class Elite, he rolled and kneeled on the ground and cried and begged for mercy. It was ironic that he was a guardian of the Imperial Senate.
Fei suddenly greatly disliked this so-called Imperial Senate.
“No, please! Great king, please spare me! Please use your kindness!” Trace already had an ominous feeling about everything, and fear consumed his wicked mind, causing him to kneel and beg for his life dearly.
Fei looked at this ugly man before him as a disgusted look flashed by on his face. Then, he lightly shook his head and said, “Sorry, I don’t want to show you any mercy.”
As soon as he said that, an invisible force lifted this Moon-Class Elite who was on the verge of mental collapse into the air before he could respond again. Then, something terrifying happened. Starting from his ugly face, the skin on his body started to fall bit by bit as if it was a layer of paint on the walls of an ancient building or the cracked shells of a boiled egg.
A horrifying scream instantly sounded in the palace.
Under Ribry’s assistance, Arthur finally recovered some of his energy, and tears rolled down his face.
“Waah………” As he sobbed in deep sorrow, Arthur slowly turned around and looked at the 19 skinless corpses that weren’t far from him. He couldn’t hold back the sadness anymore and cried loudly.
The revenge for his brothers finally took place!
“Lide, Guison, Jon, George, Moli…… Brothers, do you see this? Mr. Alexander avenged for us! That villain received his fair punishment…… Brothers, you…… you guys…… rest in peace!”
Arthur’s cry broke Fei’s heart.
Then, the king turned to Trace and looked at him.
The process took more than a dozen minutes. As Trace’s skin fell off slowly, blood gushed out of his flesh. Soon, he was covered in blood and, and it was hard to tell his limbs apart.
Out of his entire body, only his eyes were untouched. As he twitched and screamed, he stared at Fei with a vicious and poisonous expression.
“Why? You don’t think it is as fantastic as you expected?” Fei said coldly. Even though the screams sounded horrific, Fei didn’t waver. He slowly added, “I apologize. This is my first time doing this, and I’m not as skillful as you and couldn’t get one complete human skin!”
The other people in the palace all looked terrified. At this moment, the King of Chambord looked like a demon who just walked out of hell in their eyes.
It would be a nightmare to face an opponent like him!
“Don’t you worry; my skill will get better and better. Ribry lost 19 of his dearest brothers, and the empire lost 19 bravest warriors. Therefore, I have decided to skin you 19 times. I bet that you could no longer scream by then!”
Fei took out a bottle of [Full Rejuvenation Potion] and slowly poured some of it onto Trace’s bloody body.
Soon, skin started to grow out of Trace’s body, and even his burned-like ugly face got smooth skin again. That was probably his face before the accident that destroyed his face, and he looked somewhat handsome.
“Here is the second run!”
Fei’s cold voice made everyone in the palace shiver uncontrollably.
In this night, one of the guardians of the Imperial Senate, Moon-Classed Trace, got skinned 19 times continuously. In the end, his voice turned weak and sounded like the whining of an animal, and his life ended in pain, regret, and mental collapse.
Now, Fei was finally able to suppress his murderous spirit.
He slowly turned his head and looked at Special Envoy Mathewson. He smiled and said, “Your turn!”
