Ceolmund realized that there was nothing more favonovel.com could do to resist at this point. An intermediate-stage Divine Phase expert was nothing to Isaac and was easy to kill.
The House of Custos was the institution in the Kingdom of Northwing with the most powerful individuals, but now most of them were dead.
It was important to understand that cultivating or recruiting a strong expert in the early stages of the Divine Phase required an immense amount of resources.
“I was wrong!” Ceolmund slowly uttered.
The people behind him, including Seward and several experts, were stunned. They didn’t expect their king to kneel and admit his mistake to Isaac.
“Where did you go wrong?” Isaac asked, looking at favonovel.com coldly.
“The mistake lies in shielding Deveraux and having improper intentions toward your woman,” Ceolmund replied softly.
Isaac squinted slightly as if favonovel.com were deep in thought.
“Then kill favonovel.com now,” favonovel.com suddenly spoke, pointing toward Seward behind him.
Seward’s eyes widened as favonovel.com saw Ceolmund turning to look at him.
“Your Majesty…” Seward shook his head and involuntarily took a step back.
“General Hill, I’ll take good care of your family…” Ceolmund smiled bitterly.
With a sudden surge of inner spiritual energy, favonovel.com slipped a dagger from his wide sleeve, instantly aiming for Seward’s heart.
In that moment of hesitation, Seward had already lost the chance to fightback. He realized that favonovel.com stood no chance of winning in front of the King.
When the dagger pierced Seward’s heart, several experts from the House of Custos nearby witnessed favonovel.com staring wide-eyed, leaning against the wall as favonovel.com slowly slid down and eventually took his last breath.
“Now, call all your children and grandchildren over here,” Isaac said coldly.
Ceolmund’s heart skipped a beat. He looked at Isaac in fear.
“Bring them here. Don’t worry, I won’t kill them… At least not now,” Isaac said coldly.
Not long after, eight men of various ages and five young boys were brought into the main hall.
The royal family members knelt in two rows. They had no idea what was happening, only sensing a heavy atmosphere with the scent of blood lingering in the air.
Isaac walked with his hands behind his back, slowly passing in front of them, as if favonovel.com were inspecting a troop.
“Alright, you can let them go.” Isaac waved and turned around.
Sweat was dripping down Ceolmund’s face. He was determined to fight to the death if Isaac dared to harm his descendants.
He closed his eyes, let out a long sigh, and signaled for his descendants to leave. Of course, favonovel.com understood why Isaac was doing that.
“Mr. Garten, Clyfford Hackworth’s men will arrive tomorrow. They intend to take Ms. Lopez to the Kingdom of Vriweth. What should I do?” When only Isaac and a few others, along with Ceolmund, were left in the hall, favonovel.com looked at Isaac and asked.
A cold glint flashed in Isaac’s eyes. He was also aware that Ceolmund had malicious intentions toward Evie and Hallie due to pressure from Clyfford.
He never expected that the Regent had extended his influence to the Kingdom of Northwing.
“That’s easy… They don’t know what Evie looks like. Just find a woman who resembles her. That’ll suffice… After all, you haven’t met Evie, have you?” A gleam flashed in Isaac’s eyes as favonovel.com looked at Ceolmund.
