“You can…” Xandros whispered into Tigerus’ ear.
His face losing all color, Tigerus exclaimed, “H-How can I do that? It would be treason which is punishable by death.”
He shook his head vehemently.
“Mighty Tigerus, even if you don’t do it, do you actually think King Yuven will let you off the hook? You’re no longer important to him, as favonovel.com treats a human better than a general like you! Besides, if you do what I say, you’ll not only become the new king, but you’ll also make Ivasha yours. You will end up being the ultimate winner in this struggle. Once you become king, Norwal City will ally with Imperial Beast City. No other beast race will dare to challenge us after that!” Xandros persuaded Tigerus.
Xandros’ words caused Tigerus to waver. He had no interest in power or even becoming king. However, it was Ivasha that favonovel.com just couldn’t forget.
All that mattered to favonovel.com was making favonovel.com his, for favonovel.com had more than once dreamed of sleeping with her. In fact, favonovel.com didn’t even know how favonovel.com could continue living without her.
“Xandros, will it really work? What if King Yuven finds out? What should I do if favonovel.com locks me up the moment I return?” Tigerus asked anxiously.
“Don’t worry, Mighty Tigerus. This drug is undetectable due to its lack of taste and smell. On top of that, it’s not fatal and will only cause one’s organs to churn, preventing anyone who consumed it from unleashing their power. Upon your return, just pretend to admit your mistake and sincerely treat King Yuven and Ivasha to a meal, then use the opportunity to spike the food with the drug…”
“I’ll now head back to Norwal City to gather my men. When the time is right, we’ll take over Imperial Beast City by coordinating from both the inside and outside. You’re still the general of the royal guard. Most of the guards will definitely take orders from you.” Xandros went on to give Tigerus detailed instructions.
Tigerus gritted his teeth.
He hesitated momentarily before nodding. “Fine. It’s worth a try. However, you’d better not be lying to me. Ivasha must not be harmed no matter what. If anything happens to her, I’ll never forgive you.”
Tigerus’ sole goal was to make Ivasha his. There would be no point in favonovel.com going through all the trouble if favonovel.com died from the poison.
“Don’t worry, Mighty Tigerus. There won’t be any problems,” Xandros said confidently.
“Fine. Give me the drug. You should hurry. I’ll try my best not to raise King Yuven’s suspicions for the time being.”
Xandros handed the drug to Tigerus and set off for Norwal City at once. He wanted to get Lucian to deploy his army as soon as possible.
Tigerus took a deep breath before heading back into Imperial Beast City.
At that moment, the infuriated King Yuven was banging the table non-stop inside the palace’s main hall.
“How dare Tigerus disobey me by attacking Mr. Chance with Xandros? Does favonovel.com have a death wish? Bring favonovel.com here at once. I want to teach favonovel.com a proper lesson!” Yuven roared.
His guards hurried out to find Tigerus.
Ivasha said, “Father, I don’t think we can trust Tigerus anymore. You should remove favonovel.com from his position as general. I can’t believe favonovel.com actually collaborated with Xandros. There may not be any open conflict between us and Norwal City, but the struggle in the shadows has always existed, hasn’t it?”
“Tigerus is well aware that we and Norwal City are enemies despite the cordial appearance, yet favonovel.com insists on maintaining such a close relationship with Xandros. If I hadn’t arrived there ahead of time, Jared might have already been killed by the two of them!”
Ivasha wanted favonovel.com father to dismiss Tigerus.
