Tavern in Another Dimension:Getting the Elf Queen Drunk at the Start-Chapter 107 - The Threat From the Imperial City
Chapter 107: The Threat From the Imperial City
Grimm left the Imperial City with Olivia’s letter.
This time, Olivia wrote in the recent situation of the Imperial City and the fifth prince’s schemes. With Yupanki’s wisdom, even if she did not give a direct order, he would definitely understand what he should do
Out of trust in her subordinates, Olivia never questioned the news reported by Yupanki. Now, all her plans included Rock City, which was why she decided on the action plan.
She had even thought that when she became the emperor, the first thing she would do would be to move the capital city to the vicinity of Rock City. That way, she would be able to drink in the tavern at any time.
Olivia would never admit that she only wished to be closer to Alan.
The streets of the Imperial City were not as bustling and lively as before. The desolate scene made people panic.
Stanton walked out of the princess’s residence. He did not notice the figure with a tail behind him at all. As planned, he came to the fifth prince’s residence and monitored the movements of the fifth prince’s residence.
The wind in the Imperial City today was a little noisy. The front of the prince’s residence was quiet, blending into the empty streets.
Suddenly, there was a black shadow in the prince’s residence. It rushed to Stanton’s back at an extremely fast speed. Before he could react, the black shadow bit his neck from behind.
Stanton rolled his eyes after five seconds and actually fainted.
The black shadow waited for a while. After confirming that Stanton had really fainted, he turned into a human in the air. However, this person was different from an ordinary person. His two canine teeth that grew out of his lips were very eye-catching.
“Idiot, you came to spy in broad daylight and didn’t hide your tracks at all.”
The strange man rolled his eyes and muttered disdainfully.
“You, come out and bring him in. Your fifth prince should like my gift very much.”
He turned his head and said something to the air. Then, he swaggered into the mansion alone.
Olivia knew that Stanton was going to do something, so she wouldn’t be able to see him for a while.
Cynthia was the only one left to protect her.
The situation in the Imperial City was chaotic. Cynthia wouldn’t leave Olivia’s side easily.
Fifth prince’s residence.
In the meeting hall, a group of old men were arguing about something.
Sitting at the head of the table was a young man. His face was white, and he didn’t have a beard. Upon closer inspection, he had a feminine look, and he looked very similar to Olivia.
At this moment, he was supporting his chin with one hand and resting his elbow on the table. From time to time, he would yawn and watch the other people arguing on the conference table in boredom.
This person was Olivia’s youngest brother, the fifth prince. He was also the most similar to her among her siblings.
This resemblance did not only refer to his appearance, but also his personality.
At this moment, the black shadow outside the door drifted in. The others acted as if they did not see him and stopped beside the fifth prince.
“You’re back. What’s the situation outside the door?”
The fifth prince turned his head to look at the black shadow sitting beside him. Gradually, the image of a man appeared.
“It’s a small gift. I think you’ll like it.”
The man’s voice carried a hint of mockery. Coupled with the disdainful expression on his face, it made people feel even angrier. However, the fifth prince had long been used to his appearance and did not have any reaction.
The fifth prince stroked his chin a few times and glanced at the group of people who were still arguing on the table. He got up and left to look at the so-called gift.
When the people in the hall saw the prince’s action, they finally stopped arguing and watched him leave.
Now that the lord had left, their argument became meaningless.
He was already very tired of listening to the group of old men arguing inside. If it weren’t for them constantly trying to persuade him, “You must obtain the throne by legitimate means, don’t go down the wrong path. Killing too many people will indeed make people afraid, but there will definitely be people who will rebel because of it.”
If it weren’t for his lack of ability in internal affairs, he would have killed all those old fellows long ago.
But now, there was nothing he could do. They would only drag him to meetings day after day. The fifth prince felt that his patience was about to reach its limit.
After all, according to his personality, he could completely defeat his sixth sister by using force. As for his eldest brother and the other four, they were just a bunch of mobs. They could have just fought directly, but they had to make things so complicated.
This battle should have ended a long time ago. It was all these old men’s fault. They were really annoying. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m
“They keep quarreling all day long. If I didn’t need your help when I took the throne, I would have let you accompany my stupid father.”
After the fifth prince walked out of the meeting hall, he kept muttering and cursing those old men.
The black shadow man was like a spirit behind him, silently following behind him.
The two of them walked towards the backyard. After Stanton fainted, he was brought here.
The man who brought him in had been guarding the yard the whole time and did not leave.
“Your Highness.”
When the guard saw the fifth prince, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.
“Turn him over.” the fifth prince ordered.
The fainted Stanton became fish meat on the chopping board. He was carried into the yard and casually thrown on the ground. The fifth prince did not respect him at all as the princess’s chief knight.
“Wow, look at what my reliable ally brought me. My sixth sister should be worried now.”
The smug face of the fifth prince was just like the annoying black shadow man. It was really annoying.
“Not bad, right? Hand him over to me during this period as a backup food source for me.”
“To be honest, I drank a mouthful just now, and I already felt a little addicted. The blood of the strong is indeed more fragrant and sweeter.”
The man who had transformed into a black shadow said proudly, as if he was still reminiscing about the delicious taste just now.
“Sure, while you’re at it, let’s have a good look and see how many cards my good sister has up her sleeves. You better be careful not to let anyone escape. Stanton is a grandmaster mage, he’s much stronger than you.”
Looking at Stanton who was lying on the ground, the fifth prince really liked to see Olivia’s exasperated look after she found out that her chief knight had been captured.
“Other than the elves, isn’t there a youth who can make magic wine that Olivia relies on? Think of a way to pull that youth to our side.”
After the three people in the courtyard were silent for a while, the fifth prince suddenly spoke again.
Alan’s existence was not a secret between the siblings. However, he should be the only one who knew that Alan could brew magic wine. As for other siblings, those idiots probably thought that the youth was just a wine seller. They were afraid that the assassin had already been sent out.
Who should he send to kill? The angel? Or the orcs?
The fifth prince kept thinking. Although he was a boorish man, he never slacked off when it was time to use his brain.
Regarding the capture of Stanton, Olivia really knew nothing. She handled the matter as usual.
In the first prince’s residence
The second prince, the third princess, and the fourth princess were gathered together. They were discussing how to fight back against their two youngest siblings.
“What did the angel tribe and orc tribe say? Are they willing to help us to deal with Rock City?”
The second prince’s face was gloomy. Originally, his strength was strong enough to not threatened by his brothers and sisters like this. However, after losing to the first prince, he seemed to have become a different person. His face was gloomy all day long. In addition, he did not have too many backup plans. At this time, he had already lost the opportunity to fight for that throne.
“The angel tribe has agreed. They will send people over next. However, they only agreed to help bring Alan back. They have yet to reply to another matter.”
The third princess had a smug look on her face. Her two idiot brothers still had to rely on their own strength in the end.
The fourth princess didn’t seem to care about anything. She just listened quietly. She hadn’t thought of participating in the first place. After all, she didn’t have any strength, nor did she have any backup plans. If it wasn’t for her sister dragged her into the game, she would just wait patiently for the final outcome.
The last to speak was the first prince. Currently, only he had complete strength among the four of them.
“The orcs have also agreed. They have also agreed to let Hewlett go to Rock City. As long as he is there, there will be no problem this time.”
The four of them discussed and decided on their next move, despite they did not know how long this peace would last.
However, they now had the same target to deal with. Before the target was eliminated, this fragile alliance could not be disbanded.
At this moment, Alan, who was far away in Rock City, did not know what kind of danger he was about to face. He was still busy opening a tavern every day and dealing with the matter of the gray fog.
