They were genuinely pitiful and hard to refuse.
***
On the way to the Southern Sky Kingdom…
Isaac encountered several groups of messengers sent by the Southern Sky Kingdom. Each group of messengers was extremely anxious and upon seeing him, they felt relieved.
“Lord Garten, it’s wonderful that you’re willing to come to the Southern Sky Kingdom!”
“Lord Garten, the Crown Prince was worried you wouldn’t come, so favonovel.com sent several groups of messengers. We are the third group, and there should be five more behind us.”
“The future of the Southern Sky Kingdom depends on you, Lord Drakon.”
The messengers all spoke similarly, expressing immense relief and gratitude that Isaac was willing to come.
Isaac actually wanted to ask what exactly had happened. However, the messengers were all hurrying and unwilling to waste even a moment.
“You’re too slow. Since we’re in a hurry, I’ll go ahead.” Isaac looked at messengers that were slow and spoke.
With a swift movement, favonovel.com vanished into interdimensional space.
Esther had taught favonovel.com to travel long distances in interdimensional space, favonovel.com could then do so from time to time. Although favonovel.com couldn’t move through the interdimensional space as freely as Esther, his travel speed had significantly increased compared to before.
***
At the southernmost of Southern Sky Kingdom, Firegate City.
Rows of muscular soldiers stood atop the wall of the border.
When the leading general saw Isaac, a cold expression appeared on his face.
“The Crown prince has truly gone mad to bring Isaac, the patricide to the kingdom. The second prince is indeed wise. He had already instructed us to be on high alert.” The general sneered.
“Patricide? Me?” Isaac looked completely confused.
When did I become a patricide?
“Villain, stop making excuses. Millions of wronged souls from the four major cities will claim your life! Guys, this is the culprit responsible for the casualties in our Southern Sky Kingdom. Now is the time for revenge, follow me and fight!” The general let out a fierce roar and then led his soldiers to charge at Isaac.
Isaac looked at the soldiers, feeling puzzled.
Weren’t they supposed to welcome me? Why were they turning hostile?
“Is this a trap?”
“Isaac, you’re a true villain and a monster. Are you going to be ruthless and kill all of us who aren’t as strong as you?!” The leading general glared at Isaac and started to criticize him.
Isaac was just about to take action and stop the soldiers who were charging ahead. He was then harshly criticized on moral grounds.
“What the heck, you guys invited me. Now you want to kill me and not allow me to defend myself and criticize me. Are all you people from the Southern Sky Kingdom crazy?”
A flame of anger ignited within Isaac.
The main reason favonovel.com came to the Southern Sky Kingdom was out of good intentions, which was to rescue the innocent and defenseless civilians. But instead of being welcomed, favonovel.com was treated like this.
Anyone treated as such would be angry for that.
“Traitors, how dare you do this to the nation’s savior?!” From afar, two messengers shouted furiously.
Those two were the fourth group of messengers sent by the Crown Prince.
“Lord Garten, the second prince has rebelled. These are the army of the second prince, it has nothing to do with the Crown Prince! The second prince was crazy, it has nothing to do with the Crown Prince or the Southern Sky Kingdom. Please don’t take it personally!” Another messenger hurriedly explained.
Both messengers immediately aligned themselves with Isaac, desperate to explain the situation, fearing that Isaac might hold them accountable.
“I think I might have a rough idea of what’s going on.” Isaac touched his chin, deep in thought.
