Chapter 129

“If it is absolutely impossible to get Lance out of the city, I don’t mind going for the first option,” Daran said icily.

Janet gave him a look of astonishment.

That was a hard decision to make. And few people were tough enough to make that decision this quick.

“You are crazy,” Andre snapped in fume. “Do you know how many people are there in the city of Grace Ruin? And you are going to kill them all?”

“If that is what it takes to kill Lance, then yes,” Daran answered ruthlessly.

“Including me? Your friend? And all those women and children?!”

A cold gleam appeared in Daran’s eyes, “We had already agreed that we would

go separate ways after this one-time cooperation. We are no friends, Andre. If you are so afraid of dying, switching sides and abandoning your rogue identity is always an option.”

Andre clenched his fists, looking as though he wanted to throw a punch at Daran’s face.

Janet quickly stepped in between them to stop the fight, “Calm down, the both of you. We are not making this decision right now. Andre, tell us how your father died. Did someone kill him outside of the rogue’s territory?”

“Yeah…that is right.”

Andre lowered his voice, a sad look on his face.

“My father didn’t quite understand the rules of this power when he was the King. He knew that a sacred power was protecting him from being hurt by the others, but he didn’t know that the charm would be busted once he was out of our land…One time he went hunting and went beyond the borderline, and he was ambushed by an enemy.”

“Then why didn’t the person who killed your father become King?” Janet asked.

“The Rogues doesn’t have a clear line of succession. If the former King dies, the next King won’t appear until all the rogues pledge their loyalty to the same person. After my father passed away, there was a long time of turbulence…..And then Lance showed

up.”

“He united all the tribes,” Daran said.

“Yeah, with dirty tricks and sow discord,” Andre snorted in disgust. “And he chased me down and tortured me..,until I told him the rules of this sacred power. And now I am handing this key to you.”

He raised his head and looked at Daran and Janet with a pleading face.

“I know that we are on different sides, and you need to do what is necessary…but just remember this-not all rogues are bad. My father never invaded your land once. Lance is the source of all evilness…Don’t go for the rest of us. Don’t make me regret giving you this key.”

Daran looked back at him, deadpan.

“We need to go,” he said eventually.
