Chapter 679 Where is this?

A door opened up in the stone wall and there was someone that walked through this opening.

It was the fourth prince who was followed by two people holding staves in their hands.

These were magicians employed by the fourth prince and the one that had manipulated this cave. They were earth magicians that had sealed this place off and had created those openings for the arrows to come through.

As he stood over the corpses of his brothers, the fourth prince gave a sigh as he said, "If only you were willing to listen to our royal father instead of cozying up to those who flatter you to go against your own family, it wouldn't have ended like this."

To the fourth prince's surprise, there was a hand that suddenly reached out to grab at his foot.

It was just that this hand could barely move, so it took no effort from the fourth prince to move out of the way.

He looked down at the owner of the hand and slightly knitted his brows.

That was because it was the first prince who was still alive.

Even with four holes in his chest from the arrows that had stabbed into him, he was still somehow alive.

The first prince looked up at the fourth prince and said while coughing out blood, "What choice did you give us? From the very beginning, we were never destined for the throne. You think that we didn't see the way that our royal father looked at you? You're the one that drove us to this."

The two magicians who had been behind the fourth prince knitted their brows when they heard this, but the fourth prince raised his hand to stop them from doing anything.

Looking down at the first prince who was lying there heavily injured, the fourth prince said, "It was your own fault for trying to be something more than you were meant to be. From the very beginning, it was clear that you didn't have the talent for it. If you just accepted that and lived a simple life, then you would have been able to live."

"Who wants a simple life?" Those were the first prince's final words.

The fourth prince looked down at the first prince with a sad look before giving a sigh.

Without a word, he kneeled down and put his hand over the first prince's eyes before closing them.

As he did, he said, "A simple life is best. As long as you and the people you care about are safe, nothing else matters."

With that, the fourth prince stood up and turned around to leave.

As he was leaving, he gave a nod to the men who had been waiting behind the stone door.

When they received this now, they tossed the bucket of liquid beside them into the cave.

After that, they tossed the torches that they had been holding to the liquid that had been splashed all over the cave.

Before the torches touched the liquid, the magicians immediately closed the stone door.

The moment that the flames of the torches touched the liquid, it instantly caught on fire and spread all over the cave. In a matter of seconds, the cave turned into a hellscape of flames.

But there wasn't any opening in the cave in the first place, so it didn't take long for the flames to die from a lack of oxygen.

When the flames were gone, there were only ashes left in the cave.

However, the fourth prince had long departed from that place.

He wasn't interested in seeing the results, he looked forward to the next things that he had to do.

"I'll show you the mistakes that you should have corrected in this life." The fourth prince muttered to himself as he walked out of the cave.

…

"Where am I?"

The moment that I woke up, I didn't recognize the room that I was in.

This was a room that was luxuriously decorated, so there was no mistake that this was the room of a noble.

However, this was a room that I had never seen before.

If I remembered correctly, I had come snuck back to the castle after luring the princes away and had been hiding in the castle for the fourth prince to return.

There was no one guarding me since they were all participating in the operation to take down the princes, but then again, there should have been no reason for them to guard me since no one should have known that I was in the castle.

So why did I wake up in this unfamiliar place?

After staring around me for a bit, I tried to sit up, but I found that I couldn't.

When I looked down, I found that there were bindings that were holding me to the bed.

As soon as I saw this, I realized what had happened.

I had been kidnapped!

But who would want to kidnap me at a time like this?

No, it was better to ask who wouldn't want to kidnap me at a time like this…

After all, there were plenty of people that wanted things from me during this time.

Namely, they wanted me to hand over control of the wyverns that were under me.

So it wasn't strange that I had been kidnapped.

I just couldn't help wondering who was able to kidnap me when I was in the palace and bring me out like this. This didn't seem likely at all since the palace should have been heavily guarded.

No, once again, this wasn't the case.

Most of the personnel of the castle had been directed to the fourth prince's plan.

It was the one time that the castle was lightly guarded, making it easier for people to sneak in.

Not to mention that most of the guards had been sent to protect the king instead of me.

This was just me letting my guard down…

"Creak."

While I was lost in thought, the door suddenly opened.
