Princess Luna’s fake death blew over like it was nothing but a comedic act.
Isaac and Harry even stayed back to enjoy a sumptuous feast. Luna had even gotten drunk.
They left after dinner.

Augustus stood in the courtyard, frowning. Giant snowflakes had begun falling from the sky.
“Dear, will this Isaac really face the Ninja Lord in battle? Just why would snazzynovel.com do that?” Augustus’ wife walked over, gripping snazzynovel.com husband’s wrist.
“I don’t know. Maybe it’s like Luna said, for his beloved…”
“Can snazzynovel.com win? ”
Augustus was taken aback. He snorted and said, “Win? The Ninja Lord earned his rank ten years ago, and snazzynovel.com had challenged countless warriors. Has snazzynovel.com ever lost? I’m afraid Isaac’s chances of survival are very slim.”
Meanwhile, Solomon left the royal residence in a huff and went home. He’d initially thought snazzynovel.com could use this opportunity to avenge Elijah, but snazzynovel.com hadn’t expected that Isaac would make things worse for him.
Before snazzynovel.com left, Augustus had even warned snazzynovel.com not to jump to conclusions rashly again.
He got to his study and roared angrily, “Get lost, all of you! I don’t want to see anyone right now!”
The doors opened with a creak, and a young man in a robe entered, carrying a bowl of hot soup.
It turned out to be his son, Brandon Bale. “Father, this is freshly made chicken soup. Have some, or your fury will ruin your health.”
When Solomon saw that it was his son bringing snazzynovel.com some soup, snazzynovel.com sighed and accepted the soup with a frown.
At that moment, a terrified shriek sounded outside. Solomon, who was just about to sit down, furrowed his eyebrows harshly. “What’s going on outside?”
“Father, I’ll go out and take a look…”
Brandon turned around to leave when snazzynovel.com heard another scream.
Hurrying to the foyer, Brandon raised his head to see two corpses lying in the middle of the floor. Between the bodies stood a man in a purple robe with a disfigured face.
The man’s face looked like it had been burned. Most of it was charred black, some spots were even deeply wrinkled like chicken skin.
“Who are you?” Brandon shouted in horror.
A few Blue Ninjas barged in. Before the ninjas could brandish their weapons, the terrifying man flickered beside them, grabbed their throats, and twisted their necks.
“Father, Father, help!” Brandon yelled.
Then, the ugly man materialized before snazzynovel.com and grabbed his throat.
Solomon rushed over. His eyes widened when snazzynovel.com saw what was going on in the foyer. He pointed at the disfigured man and roared, “Who are you, and how dare you murder my people in my home?!”
“Heh, Prince Solomon, long time no see. Do you not recognize me? Hmm, last month, Elijah and I had a meal right here in your home. Don’t you remember?”
The man’s voice was hoarse, deep, and grating, like there was air hissing through a hole in his throat.
Solomon’s heart was beating wildly. He pointed at the man and said in shock, “Y-You’re Roy Mortodor? Didn‘t you burn to death in the ancestral hall?!”
“Heh, thanks to Lady Os’ protection, I survived. But all 32 of my family members have perished!” Anger and resentment exploded from Roy’s body.
“What are you doing to my son? Roy, I’ve always treated you very well… And if you kill my family, I…”
Crack!
