Chapter 895 - The Aftermath

After giving Ulrich internal injuries that leave him bedridden for 2 weeks, Landon did the same to Winston, who had already been defeated by Henry.

This way, even if they wanted to flee, they would have no way of doing so, except they could crawl faster than a person could run.

Without a doubt, they would be heavily guarded at all times.

But it was better knowing that they wouldn’t be able to go anywhere.

Landon had asked if Henry wanted them dead, but Henry refused.

Killing them created more problems for him than keeping them alive.

Why?

Because their mothers and maternal clans were still very much alive and kicking.

Killing them would give too much pressure for him to handle.

In the end, Landon would leave him to rule Deiferus, and the amount of clean-up that he had to do was a LOT.

Like it or not, his men weren’t that skilled to handle such high-end enemies like those in the empire... Especially those that belonged to the council.

That’s why he was glad when Landon decided to take Ulrich and Winston as prisoners.

This way, these forces would focus their attention on Baymard in hopes of rescuing the duo.

Their mothers would first use all the power at their disposal to rescue them, which in a way, kept Henry safe for the time being.

For sure, Henry was worried a bit that he was putting Baymard in danger.

But after seeing Landon’s reassuring smile and remembering the scene from earlier on outside the city, he fully believed that Baymard was a haven.

.

That said, Landon wouldn’t leave him dry and hanging.

Tomorrow, another team should be arriving in the Capital.

And that team will stay with Henry for a month before switching with another team again.

The soldiers here will keep Henry’s enemies in check and assist him in taking down or tracking whatever was needed to be done.

At the same time, so as not to draw attention to themselves, Henry’s men will take over guard duties around the City gates at night so that when the Baymardian vehicles drive in around 2 or 3 A.M, it won’t cause any issues.

And the vehicles, once marked in the innermost private training courtyard meant for only the king, would be kept away from prying eyes.

No maids or workers will be tasked to go in and clean up the place.

The soldiers would stay there, clean the ace themselves and also do whatever it is they had to do there.

In short, their operations would very well remain hidden unless some people were sneaking around 2 or 3 A.M and happen to see them when they drive in or leave the city

Again, once the next group of people come over tomorrow, those within Henry’s men who got chosen for training in Baymard would follow him out of the city alongside the soldiers.

Another thing to note was that before the battle, Landon had told Henry all about the Temple of Dragmus.

With their defeat, the team will bring some of the treasures and findings from the temple hideout to the palace at night.

.

Additionally, amongst those coming in, the team were a few military secretaries that worked in the barracks.

They’ll come over and teach Henry and a few of his men how to correctly record and look over things.

Unlike other empires, Henry’s would be the hardest and most challenging one to change because of the rules followed by those in power.

The majority of commoners were ready for change, but the main problem lay with the wealthy.

So Henry would no doubt face oppression, especially from the council members.

Deiferus would now undergo a massive change, making this period tge most dangerous of all.

That’s why Landon couldn’t start ship transportation and other things yet.

He decided that only when the danger period lowered to a certain degree would he do so.

In short, there were a lot of things that Landon had to iron out with Henry before leaving tomorrow night.

But for now, they had to clean up the ace and adequately understand the building’s strange dynamic.

Landon had already scanned through it with the system, but he decided to let everyone explore and discover things for themselves.

Even Henry was shocked by the discoveries.

No wonder his father never allowed anyone further.

The place was a real hell hole.

Any slight misstep, and it was game over.

.

The soldiers also found the place where the hangols and other deadly creatures were kept.

And Landon decided to buy them and take the animals to Baymard, which made Henry even happier to get rid of them.

Feeding people to animals was a vicious act to him.

And who knows, one day, his men or himself might be the one to fall through the holes since they haven’t mastered the building’s layout yet.

It would be foolish to die from one’s own trap.

In short, Henry felt like the building should be closed and shouldn’t be used until he renovated and changed some things.

What if in future, his son or daughter falls through those narrow stairways and dies?

He could continue forbidding them here and there just like his father did, but at times, that didn’t work.

He heard that when Julius was young, one of his siblings went in there and never come back ever since.

So who knew if the person died in the end?

Children were sneaky.

And at times, they were very clever and could bypass even a.d.u.l.ts.

Maybe his paternal grandfather (Julius’ father) didn’t have tight security in the place during the day, allowing the child to sneak in.

But since then, no one found that child.

So who knows if such a thing would happen to him?

What if a traitor who was by his side decided to push him down the stairs instead?

For safety, some things had to go or get changed.

The place was called the building of absolute death, which brought about the ends of both royals and intruders.

There was even a ruler several decades ago who died mysteriously in the place.

So who knew if he fell on his own trap?

That’s why Henry decided to change a few things about the building.

The escape route remains, but the traps were a little too much.

And so the place would be closed until further notice.

.

With that, they had successfully dealt with all major issues for today.

And all that was left was for Henry to get crowned.

Finally, he could leave.

It was time to attend Santa’s Wedding.
