Chapter 2303 Brothers Turned Against Each Other!

“No, no, not at all!” The masked man waved his hand dismissively. “I wouldn’t dare compare myself to the Seven Saints. I’m just a humble man from the countryside. It’s simply a pity to see a savage tiger driven to the brink by love and loyalty, forced to consider ending his own life.”

Yorick, with little patience for riddles, pointed at the man and barked, “What the hell do you want? Spit it out already!”

“Very well!” Sensing Yorick’s temperament, the masked man got straight to the point. “You can’t bring yourself to kill Jane, yet you refuse to betray Mr. Sheffield–Grey, who has shown you such great kindness. So, why not kill Artemis instead? Wouldn’t that solve everything?”

Yorick’s body tensed with a violent shudder. It was as if those words had shattered the haze clouding his

mind.

The masked man pressed on. “If Artemis dies, what good is his soaring approval rating? A corpse can’t become president. Once Atticus takes the presidency, do you think he’ll still want to kill a national treasure like Jane? I’d wager he’d sooner spoil her than harm her!”

“Shut up!” Yorick shouted coldly, pointing at him.

Though the suggestion made perfect sense, Yorick knew what assassinating Artemis would mean. The sudden death of Chanaea’s president–elect would throw the entire nation into chaos. Foreign powers would seize the opportunity to invade, and the consequences for the people would be unthinkable.

More than that, with the current political turmoil, Santiago–serving as a general–was assigned to guard Artemis personally. If Yorick attempted an assassination, he would inevitably have to fight Santiago.

Winning or losing was one thing. But once they clashed, Santiago would know the truth. And at that point, their brotherhood would be shattered–they would have no choice but to fight to the death.

“Heh, well then, I’ll take my leave.” The masked man chuckled, knowing he had already opened Pandora’s box. Whether Yorick acted or not no longer mattered. In the end, he would have no choice.

On the other side of Zovince, Santiago also understood the stakes. With Artemis‘ election, many powerful individuals saw their interests threatened. They would try to kill Artemis before he could solidify his power.

To ensure Artemis‘ safety, Santiago had no choice but to leave his pregnant wife behind, staying at Artemis‘ side day and night.

For the sake of national stability, he could only neglect his beloved wife once more.

“General Adkins, we’ve received intel–Atticus is planning to send an assassin after Mr. Artemis!”

The report soon landed on Santiago’s desk.

“Outrageous! Losing the election wasn’t enough–they want to play dirty now?!” Santiago clenched his fists, teeth grinding as a single name immediately flashed through his mind–Yorick.
