Volume 8 Chapter 59: I Bid Everyone Adieu
"You damn pig! How dare you try to sacrifice my daughter!" Julius slammed his hand down on the chair as he stood up. If looks could kill, Harold would be slaughtered like a pig!
And he was not alone, as everyone in the Solis Kingdom was about to slaughter those nobles.
"..." Harold's expression turned dark as he laughed, "Guess cats out of the bag. But Julius, do you think you can stop me?"
"I can kill you right now."
"Haha, too bad, then your kingdom shall be destroyed."
"What?"
"Do you really think I can't use the weapon now?!" Harold ripped the necklace off his neck, "Scorch the heavens themselves, I call thy Sirius!"
As he said those words, the sky started to rumble as an odd magical tool appeared down the church.
"What? How can you use it?!" Julius frowned. Rumors alone, the Philosopher Kingdom had an ancient weapon.
However, it was concluded that they couldn't use it.
"This weapon had three shots; the last shot was never used! We just need a bit of her power to activate it! I can easily destroy your puny kingdom with a snap of my fingers."
"You damn bastard!" Julius and the rest of the Solis nobles scowled.
"No!" Carolyn's expression paled. Her worst fear had just occurred, yet a gentle hand patted her shoulders. She looked up,
"Princess, I said before, no one would stop you on your path as long as I'm here. I'm a man of my word."
"Do you think you can stop our kingdom's strongest weapon?!" Harold's eyes turned dark. Who was he kidding?! This magic item was at least an ancient level!
"Not even that damn dragon could stop this, and you think a clown like you could."
"I'm a thief that keeps my word." As he said this, he turned to the sisters, "Sisters, protect everyone here."
"Understood." Instantly, a barrier was erected before everyone. The next second, Masked Thief started to chant.
"Brilliant lightning to pierce through all my enemies! Those who are in thy way shall be obliterated."
"He's going to hit that with his grand-level magic?" Jack muttered. Lightning trident was his strongest attack.
"...The kid can't do it." Cedric frowned. He wasn't alone, as the adults realized.
"Lightning trident!" The wave of lightning smashed into Sirius. Yet, it didn't stop it, a small dent to show off the little effect that lightning had.
"Do you really think you can stop it with a grand-level magic!" Harold laughed haughtily.
"No, I was just testing it out. The real show-stopper is now." Taking off his mantle, he placed it on top of Carolyn before walking out again.
"Brilliant lightning to pierce through all my enemies! Those who are in thy way shall be obliterated."
"He's using the same spell again?"
"It's not going to-"
"Wait a minute! Look at his hand!" Everyone noticed how Masked Thief's hands were weaving!
"What the? He's chanting with his hands as well! It's a grand-level magic as well!"
Lionel crushed the seat's armguard!
"Can you even do something like that? Casting two spells at once?" Derek shouted.
"Theoretically, it should be possible," Alvin responded, "But that's only in theory. Doing something like that requires you to be able to do two things at once with utmost concentration."
"Ah," The first criterion was met with flying colors.
"Does he have enough mana?" Mana and control was the second issue. Could he really handle all of that?
"That kid's going to blow up if he messes up!" Cedric muttered. The recoil would destroy him.
"You can do it!" Yet, one voice believed he could. Carolyn cheered as loudly as she could!
Now! Masked Thief finished his two chants as the two magic circles overlapped one another!
"Ahnilate! Baal's Wrath!" A torrent of blue lightning blasted at the magical weapon, slamming it! The attack was violent, sending currents of lightning all over the place!
Concentrate. Focus that lightning into one. Slowly, the lightning that raged forth became one, and,
"Boom!" It pierced the magical weapon's hull! And soon came after the explosions from Sirius.
"And there you have it," Masked Thief sighed as he turned to the audience. He walked over to Carolyn, "I'll be taking this," The mantle was redraped over his shoulders.
"..." Everyone was in disbelief.
"...No." That haughty expression Harold had was nowhere to be found. All that effort was gone like that. It was destroyed by one person.
"Now then, where were we?" Masked Thief looked around.
"..."
"Oh, yeah. This marriage is voided, am I correct, Your Majesty." His words were directed to Julius.
"Of course!" There was no way he was going to allow that marriage after everything. He felt insulted even when the boy asked.
"This is good," Masked Thief nodded, "Now then, I shall take my treasure and be off."
"Eh? You're still going to take the prized ring?"
"Here! Take it!" The priest quickly tossed the ring over to the man. He felt fear just standing around him.
"This?" He took the ring and stared, "No, this is trash to me," He crushed it in his hand like it was some regular pebble.
"..." You weren't after that? Everyone blinked. What are you after then? That stone was the only valuable thing here!
"I'll be taking my treasure." Without any hesitation, the thief grabbed Carolyn's waist and pulled her close.
"HUH?!"
"I'm your treasure?" Carolyn blinked; the girl never expected those words to come out of his mouth.
"Of course, treasure is in the eyes of the beholder, and you're quite the beautiful treasure worth stealing." Masked Thief grinned.
"…" Carolyn's cheeks turned red.
"Well, I best-"
"Hold it!" Julius's expression contorted so much that he was about to explode! Thalia chuckled as she watched.
"Are you really going to steal her while I'm here?" Brat! Are you trying to court her in a situation like this?!
"What if I am? I'm quite a greedy thief; even if she said no, I would take her away either way," Masked Thief added, "And you should really do something about your kingdom's rats as well."
Another orb was brought out,
"Who cares about Carolyn. As long as I become crown prince, everything is worth it." It was a video of Felix. His eyes were maniacal as he said this.
"..." Julius's expression was calm. But it couldn't be said about the others.
"You should really deal with that."
"..."
"Now then, before I leave with my treasure, I have one final gift for you all. And it comes from the great Philosopher Kingdom!"
What? Harold looked up. Why would I ever work with you?
Masked Thief snapped his fingers. And when he did,
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
Four gigantic explosions occurred that caused everyone to look outside!
"The Philosopher Kingdom really is generous. To explode four of their great mana mines to celebrate this special day. Too bad that their prince was pathetic."
"..."
"Ahh, no one was harmed in the makings of these fireworks!" He couldn't forget about that.
Cedric was about to fall off his chair, "Your grandson is crazy!" To blow up those mines as fireworks? Who was he kidding?
Lionel could only grin.
Harold spat out blood when he heard that! 4 mines! They only had one mine left! How could this be! Everything was going up in flames! Their economy was blown to smoke.
Quite literally!
"Now I bid everyone adieu." Masked Thief didn't hesitate to hold Carolyn in a princess carry, "Princess, hold onto me tight."
"Okay!" Carolyn didn't hesitate to wrap her arms around his neck. It was warm and comforting.
Snapping his fingers, a hole appeared in the ground, and that was when he jumped!
