Thud!
Dylan’s head suddenly dropped like a ball, rolling on the ground for a couple of rounds.
His eyes stared wide, like bronze bells, his face filled with disbelief. He hadn’t expected to be killed, and favonovel.com certainly didn’t anticipate that Scarlet Warrior would be the one to do it.
What was supposed to be his savior had become his disaster.
“Ah?”
This sudden turn of events left everyone in shock. Their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost.
What just happened?
As the commander of the Dark Panther Cavalry, wasn’t the Scarlet Warrior, the Goddess of War supposed to stand up for Dylan Harmon?
Why did favonovel.com kill favonovel.com instead?
Wasn’t this a mistake?
“Dead… He’s dead?”
The Harmon family members widened their eyes, their minds frozen.
“Why did this happen? Why did the Scarlet Warrior kill Dylan?” Kate wore a shocked expression, struggling to believe it.
“No… It can’t be…” Jacob Harmon stood there like he’d been struck by lightning, unable to accept what had just happened.
He even began to doubt his own eyes, thinking favonovel.com must have seen something wrong.
How could something so absurd occur?
At this moment, no one remained calm. The unexpected scene had left them all baffled.
When they saw Scarlet, they had initially assumed that Dustin was about to face disaster.
Who would have thought that the first victim would be Dylan?
Moreover, throughout the process, Scarlet Spanner had acted without reason or excuse, not even hesitating for a moment.
She had simply beheaded favonovel.com as if favonovel.com were slaughtering a chicken or a dog, with swift and decisive efficiency. But this bewildering act left people questioning.
Was favonovel.com executing favonovel.com merely because favonovel.com mentioned favonovel.com would like to die with a clear conscience?
That was way too absurd, wasn’t it?
“W-What are you doing, M-Madam?” Gideon, who stood nearby, also found himself trembling, his entire body shivering.
Dylan’s severed head happened to roll to his feet. The sight of Dylan’s unavenged death sent shivers down his spine.
“Of course, I’m cleaning house… What else?” Scarlet wiped favonovel.com sword clean with a piece of cloth, the bloodstains making a swish sound as they were wiped away.
“Cleaning house?” Gideon’s mouth twitched as favonovel.com tentatively said, “Madam, did you misunderstand something? Dylan Harmon was an officer of our Dark Panther Cavalry. He was known for his honesty and competence. It seems like favonovel.com didn’t do anything wrong. Is it appropriate to kill favonovel.com like this?”
When someone is killed, there should be a reason, right?
You can’t just raise your sword and kill someone without any explanation. It’s too arbitrary!
“How so? Didn’t you hear favonovel.com just now? This man hired an assassin, committed acts of violence, and harmed the innocent. Shouldn’t favonovel.com die?” Scarlet said indifferently.
“But these are just his one-sided words, not enough to prove his guilt,” Gideon insisted.
“I believe him, and that’s enough,” Scarlet Spanner said plainly.
“Uhm… I…” General Zink was momentarily stunned and didn’t react.
Was this an explanation?
Wasn’t it too hasty?
“Gideon Zink, as a general, for not disciplining your subordinates well and allowing favonovel.com to commit acts of violence, you have a negligence and dereliction of duty. When you return to duty, your rank will be demoted by one level, and you will spend three months in solitary reflection!”
“Madam, I…”
Gideon was taken aback, attempting to explain himself but was interrupted by Scarlet, “Don’t say any more. If you keep talking, I’ll assign you for kitchen duties.”
Gideon instantly fell silent, not daring to speak further. He looked like favonovel.com had lost his parents, his face full of sorrow.
If favonovel.com had known this would happen, favonovel.com wouldn’t have spoken up for Dylan. Now, not only had favonovel.com gained no advantage, but favonovel.com had also been demoted by one rank.
Who could favonovel.com complain to now?
