Chapter 271 Second Day



Chapter 271 Second Day

"Master! Please wake up! There\'s something urgent that needs to be said!" I woke up to Kelsy banging on the door. I raised my arms and yawned.

I had used magic as a force to open the door. Once you have enough control over your magic, you can easily make it behave like a physical force.

"Come in..." I was still groggy after waking up, but the drowsiness had disappeared once I thought about it.

"Master! There\'s a dead body in our yard! A bloody one at that!" Panic had run over her, and she urged me to come over.

"I know, I put it there."

"..." All the emotions within Kelsy had died down after hearing my words. She froze and stared at me, unsure of what to say.

"A stalker was peeping into my room. I made sure to teach him a lesson. Go tell everyone that it was me."

I shooed Kelsy away, and she ran away out of fear. What I did to the man would scare anyone. Not only was he dead, but the way he died was also horrible.

His skin was peeled off, and the insides of his body were revealed. Any sane person would be disturbed by the sight. With Kelsy gone, I did a few stretches and went to the dining room.

"My lord. Is it true that the body was your doing?" Getting breakfast, the head butler asked if what I did was true.

"Yes. He was also quite rude. Not only did he spy on me, but when I brought him in front of me, he attacked with the intent to kill me. So, I punished him and broke him."

"Did you find out who sent the spy?"

"Of course, all I needed to do was search his memory. I could torture him without holding back."

I had established fear among my people. Being a tyrant had many uses. First, it makes people fear me and suppress anyone who thinks of trying to overthrow me. It was also the quickest way for people to obey me.

While it would make people fearful, I wouldn\'t be surprised if there were a group that would try to end me. It didn\'t matter in the end, considering I had no plans to rule this city forever.

"Is that all?"

"Yes, please enjoy your meal." After bringing my meal, the head butler left.

[Third-Person POV]

"The city lord is more dangerous than I thought. News of an attacker had reached the city, and one of our observers had disappeared." The old man said it with a frown. His face blackens, realizing the consequences that might happen.

"It\'s safe to assume that the observer was killed. Do you think the observer has compromised us?" The female voice replied, unsure what to do.

"Whether he revealed that we were the ones who sent him doesn\'t matter. All the city lord is an artifact that could read a person\'s mind."

"What should we do? Should we get someone to eliminate him now, immediately?"

The woman\'s question had irked the old man. "Eliminate? If we eliminate him now, we will be viewed as traitors." The old man sighed at the problem they were facing.

"The goddess has given the city lord the position by her order. We\'ve already eliminated the previous city lord due to his incompetence. Killing him in two days would make her question us. We can only apologize to him or run away to a new city." The old, tired voice spoke as he thought of the solution.

"Let\'s go with that." Coming to a decision the old man decided.

[Charles\' POV]

"City Lord, are you prepared?" Commander Sander had arrived first thing in the afternoon.

"Let\'s get it over with." I wasn\'t excited or uncooperative with this task. All I needed to do was get it over with and see if I could do anything to make it easier.

Following the commander, he showed me all the facilities in the army. Instead of teaching me, I could practically feel he wanted me to focus the funding on the military.

"As for your everyday work, you will oversee all the paperwork. There would be an occasion when people would meet you for an essential discussion about the city. That is all."

Paperwork? I knew that I would eventually do those, but when you think about it, why should I? As someone with power and money, I could always hire someone to do the work.

"Commander Sanders, get me a slave. We\'re going to make them do my work for me."

"But..." Before Sanders could speak, I interrupted him.

"Get me slaves that are educated and will obey my orders no matter what. Just make sure they\'re knowledgeable about these types of work." All Sanders could do was obey my command.

"Before you leave, tell me something about the city of Eurgesh. I heard that they were at our borders."

"The city of Eurgesh has been our enemy for years. A few years ago, a new deity has taken over and has chosen our city to conquer. For all these years, we have been in a deadlock."

"Then do you know what kind of deity they worship?"

"It hasn\'t been confirmed but I heard it\'s the god of death." My face darkened upon hearing those words.

While gods and goddesses were powerful beings, those in the sixth realm shouldn\'t truly be able to kill me. However, the god of death was an exception to those rules.

The god would definitely have a way to bypass those with immortality. If I made my way to Eurgesh and destroyed it single-handedly, I would be the face of a target.

"Do you know what realm the god of death is?" If the god was in the sixth realm, then my chances of being killed by it were lowered. I looked at Sanders and waited for his answer.

"That, I don\'t." I sighed, hearing Sander\'s words. I guess I would have to put an effort into this war.
