Chapter 466
Dawn approached, and only the faint dark red sparks of the fire under the mountain remained as if a
strong gust of wind could blow it off.
Caspian faced the stone, watching Dwayne who was nailed in front of him, was on his last breath.
The severe injuries, blood loss, and fright would be the end of him.
The utter misery and the pain accompanied by fear made Dwayne secretly curse at himself.
Would it not be great if he were a weak mortal instead of a warrior?
That way, he would be dead and free long ago, rather than ending up in that situation.
“I’ve… named them all… Your Highness…” Dwayne uttered with incredible difficulty.
With every word he said, it felt as if a blunt knife scratched his throat.
However, Dwayne had to find strength and say he wanted to die.
“Kill… Kill me… Just please…” Dwayne pleaded weakly.
Nonetheless, Caspian only glanced coldly at Dwayne and asked indifferently, “Dwayne, have you been
to the hellhole prison?”
“I…” Just as Dwayne spoke one word, he suddenly realized something, and his pupils constricted.
However, Caspian did not spare another glance at him anymore, and he turned around to leave.
“Enjoy that kind of despair.”
“Please… Kill me…” Dwayne watched as Caspian’s back went further and further into the snowstorm
until he completely disappeared.
Soon, he let out a hoarse cry.
Unfortunately, his blood ran dry, so he did not have any tears left either.
***
Just as the day broke, Caspian crossed the border of Salleria and officially returned to his homeland.
It was the 7th of January, and there were 21 days before Edgar’s 30th-anniversary celebration of his
ascension to the throne.
Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and it was now the 22nd of January.
At that time, the entire capital of Salleria appeared very lively, and few people mentioned the chaos in
the imperial court a few years ago due to the passage of time.
Coupled with the fact that Carson showed great talent in cultivation and was accepted as a Great
Oceans Sect’s disciple, the entire Salleria became relatively peaceful in the past few years.
Not only that, rumors went around that once Carson ascended to the throne, Salleria would no longer
be just a county but a country!
Naturally, that kind of change was more exciting than opening up new frontiers.
However, no one mentioned the name that once attracted people’s attention as if the person never
appeared before.
As for the reason why, it would be whether someone deliberately suppressed it, or there were other
reasons why only a few people knew about it.
Salleria became a pivotal presence in several surrounding counties and countries as the Great Oceans
Sect attached great importance to it.
Consequently, its status was significantly improved compared to a few years ago.
Otherwise, Edgar’s 30th-anniversary celebration of his ascension to the throne would not be organized
with such great fanfare that several neighboring counties sent envoys to come and congratulate him.
Those unaware might even think Salleria capitulated the counties.
As early as a month ago, the capital of Salleria was already in the celebratory mood, and the
atmosphere would be completely pushed to the climax at the end of the month on the 28th of January.
What Salleria had to do now was to make sure that the celebration was foolproof.
On the one hand, they wanted to ensure the perfect atmosphere.
While on the other hand, they must also remove all unstable factors as soon as possible.
At that time, one of the most important places in the whole celebration, the imperial city of Salleria,
made the final preparations before the festivity.
The entire imperial city must be recoated, the murals must be repainted, and the glazed bricks and tiles
must be replaced with new ones.
Not only that, even all the chairs, teacups, and bricks on the ground in the imperial city must be brand
new to show the prosperous future of Salleria!
The person in charge of that was none other than Morris, the eunuch, who now handled the imperial
court’s etiquettes.
Being in control of the Salleria’s imperial court’s etiquettes meant Morris had absolute power to appoint
and remove the palace ladies and eunuchs in the imperial city.
At the same time, he must handle the food and clothing of the king as well as decide on the decoration
of the palace in the imperial city.
The only person who could sit in that position and hold that kind of power could only be the most
trusted confidant of Edgar, the current king.
Three years ago, Morris was just a little-known eunuch in the inner court.
Nonetheless, the reason was simple as to why he could reach such a high position now, he made an
outstanding contribution three years ago.
Morris was the first to discover that the former prince overstepped his boundaries with his sister and
even intended to commit treason.
It was precisely because of his keen findings and timely report that a catastrophe for Salleria was
prevented.
At that moment, Morris jumped up and down, directing a few muscular craftsmen to place a one-story-
high vase.
“Watch out! Be careful! Slow down! Don’t rush! Hey! I told you to move slower!” Morris shrieked at the
top of his lungs.
Under his watchful eyes, those craftsmen finally placed the vase, and everyone’s clothes were soaked
in sweat.
However, before they had time to catch a breath, they were abusively scolded by Morris.
It was just that Morris’s cheeks were a bit crooked, and he had a lot of missing teeth compared to
before for unknown reasons.
Hence, it was difficult for him to speak, and his voice sounded unclear too.
After scolding the careless craftsmen, Morris panted and took a seat.
Other eunuchs waited beside him, and one quickly offered him tea that they prepared earlier with both
hands.
“Eunuch Morris, you must pay attention to your health! These days, the entire imperial city needs you
as a pillar.
It’s not worth it for you to get ill by these lowly craftsmen.” Seeing Morris drinking the tea, the young
eunuch hurriedly flattered him.
At the same time, he kneaded Morris’s shoulders at the right spots.
Morris truly enjoyed being flattered, and he thought that was the ultimate pleasure in the world.
Every time he had such thoughts, Morris could not help but feel proud of how vital his desperate
decision back then was.
Life was like chess.
If the player took the correct step, every other move would be right.
Was that not him?
Morris was so happy that one could not see his eyes as he smiled so bright, and he even groaned
comfortably from the flattery.
However, he still pretended to be reserved and said, “What pillar? Don’t be ridiculous! Remember, our
Salleria’s pillar is only His Majesty, when He abdicates in the future, then it’ll be the current Royal
Highness…”
When Morris mentioned Royal Highness, he suddenly thought of something and shuddered, abruptly
stopping in mid-sentence.
The young eunuch who served him noticed that Morris was suddenly stupefied with a look of horror in
his eyes, and he did not dare to ask more.
Then, the young eunuch quickly lowered his head, pretending that he did not know anything.
After a while, he felt Morris’ trembling stop, and he heard Morris‘s high-pitched voice.
“Do you remember which lords I mentioned before who were yet to arrive in Salleria?”
