274 You Killed My Mother, I Will Kill You

Rilt District, City Square.

Henry and his subordinates were being tied to wooden crosses.

Scarlett did not order her subordinates to kill them immediately for two reasons.

Firstly, she wanted her people to torture them first.

Her people lost their families because of Henry and his subordinates, so she wanted to give her people a chance to take revenge on them.

Secondly, she wanted to show everyone that Nightshire City would never forgive traitors.

By making Henry and his subordinates an example, anyone who had the intention of betraying Nightshire City would think twice before doing it.

Of course, she knew that torturing them was a cruel action, but she did not care about it.

She did not want the same thing to happen again, so she would make everyone never forget the consequences of betraying Nightshire City because she also hated betrayal.

"Colonel Louie, how about we torture them first?" the red-haired man inquired.

He suggested this cruel idea because he lost his brother and sister earlier, so his hatred toward Henry was as big as the universe.

"I agreed." The blue-haired man stated.

Like the red-haired man, he also lost his family, so a desire to torture Henry arose when he saw Henry and his subordinates.

"No." Colonel Louie responded, "You can torture them later, but let the citizens have the first turn."

"But colonel Louie, my hands are itching." the blue-haired man said as he looked at his hands. "I always remember my deceased family when I see them, so a desire to torture him arises whenever I see them."

"I will let you torture them together with the citizens later. However, we have to wait for them first." Of course, Colonel Louie understood their feelings because he also hated Henry to the bone.

"I regret coming to his shops in the past."

"Me too. I regret staying in his hotels."

"I also regret visiting his restaurants. If I had known he would betray us, I would never have gone to his restaurant."

"If I had known he would betray us, I would have killed him long time ago."

"Yes, yes."

"People like them don't deserve to live."

The city guards voiced out their regret because they had helped Henry become richer by visiting his business.

Colonel Louie walked closer to Henry and uttered, "Henry, oh Henry. Don't you like our city mistress? So, why did you betray us? You know she hates betrayal the most, right?"

"Louie, if you are a man, kill me now. Otherwise, I will call you a coward." Henry did not want to get tortured, so he tried to get an easy death.

"You don't deserve an easy death, Henry." Of course, Colonel Louie would not grant Henry's wish because he wanted to see the citizens torturing Henry and his subordinates.

"As I thought, you are a coward. Yo-" Henry stopped his words halfway and corrected it, "No, you are sissy boy. I wonder. How can a sissy boy become a colonel?"

"How dare you insult Colonel Louie!" the green-haired man retorted.

Unlike the green-haired man, Colonel Louie still acted calmly as if Henry did not insult him.

"Stop it." Colonel Louie stopped the green-haired man from yelling at Henry. "He is trying to get an easy death, so ignore it."

"But Colonel Louie, he is insulting you. At least, we should hit his face once." The green-haired man wanted to punch Henry's face.

"That's right, Colonel Louie."

"I agree."

"Yes. We should teach him a lesson."

"Break his nose." 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡．𝙣𝒆𝙩

One by one, the city guards voice out their anger.

"It's fine, it's fine." Colonel Louie responded calmly, "Wouldn't seeing him being tortured by the citizens be more fun?"

"Ah, you are right." The green-haired man uttered.

"City mistress and the citizens has arrived."

"It's city mistress."

"Look at the citizens' expressions. I think Henry and his subordinates will soon know what hell is."

"Hahaha. I think so too."

"I can't wait to see them torture Henry and his underlings."

"Me too."

The city guards were pleased when they saw Scarlett and the citizens because, with this, they could torture Henry and his subordinates soon.

"City mistress…" Colonel Louie greeted her immediately.

Scarlett nodded her head before finally standing in front of Henry. "Henry, why did you betray us?"

"Tch! This question again." Henry had heard this question many times today from Lieutenant Alex to his former friend, Aron.

"Why did you cooperate with magical beasts? Have you forgotten that you live in Nightshire City?" Scarlett threw more questions at Henry.

"You all treated me bad. And you want me to treat you well? Are you kidding me?" Henry did not try to look good in front of Scarlett like usual.

It could be said his heart had died now.

He had lost his children.

He had lost his family.

And he had lost the war.

He was no more than a traitor and a prisoner of war now.

That was why he did not try to look good in front of her because he knew it was useless now.

"When did we treat you bad?"

"Yes. When did we treat you bad?"

"We never treated you bad. You were the one who treated us bad."

The citizens believed they had never treated him badly.

Instead, Henry was the one who treated them badly. He even used his status and authority to make their lives hard.

That was why they could not accept it when he slandered them like that.

"When we were in the arena, you all insulted me and my family. Did you forget it?" Henry retorted.

"Henry, you were the wrong one because you suddenly attacked Ace." Of course, Scarlett still remembered it because she was angry at Henry at that time.

Henry shifted his gaze from Scarlett to Ace. "And you, Ace. You were the one who killed my children, right? You were the one who killed Leo and Edward, right?"

"I did not kill them. I only beat them up. I'm sure everyone knows about this." Ace was not lying when he said this.

When they attacked the Red Ogre Village, Ace only attacked Edward. The one who killed Edward was not him, but the red ogre.

He only injured Edward heavily, nothing more than that.

And the one who killed Leo was not him either. Of course, he knew who the murderer was because she was one of his underlings.

However, Henry did not believe him.

All evidence led to Ace, so he believed Ace was the one who killed his children.

"Don't lie to me. It's you, right?" Henry roared.

Like usual, Ace was still calm. "Do you have evidence?"

"I have investi-" before Henry had finished his words, a fifteen years old kid threw a stone at his face.

"You killed my mother. I will kill you." The blue-haired kid kept throwing stones at Henry.

"You killed my brother..."

"You killed my sister…"

"You killed my auntie…"

One by one, the citizens threw stones at Henry.

Not only Henry, but they also threw rubbles at all of his subordinates.

They were Henry's subordinates, so they had to suffer too.

Ace, who crossed his arms over his chest, smiled.

'What a beautiful view!'
