Chapter 528: The Depressed Emperor

"What's going on? Why did Stephen deal with you so harshly?" the emperor asked sternly.

"This~" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph immediately softened, hesitating and didn't know what to say. After all, the assassination of Catherine was related to him, and the old mage didn't find the wrong person to settle accounts with him.

When the emperor saw that he was hesitant, he became angry and immediately roared: "Speak quickly!"

When he saw that the emperor was really angry, Shadow Sword Master Joseph did not dare to hesitate anymore and said hurriedly: "It's not about Catherine!"

"Alas!" The emperor hammered the bed hard, and then roared angrily: "I knew it, I knew he wouldn't let it go! He came to me the first time Catherine was assassinated, and I also warned him But you just didn’t listen and you dared to assassinate him for the second time! How about that? Are you happy now?

Shadow Sword Saint Joseph was scolded **** by the emperor, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense at all. Although he was also feeling aggrieved, he did not dare to put the blame on the third prince, so he could only hang his head and receive the scolding.

The emperor cursed for a while and became a little tired from lifting. He picked up the tea cup on the table and took a few sips. Suddenly he remembered something and hurriedly put down the cup and asked: "No, I didn't ask you to stay in Winster." Castle? Why did he run out again?"

"No, Your Majesty, I didn't run around. It was Stephen and his men who suddenly attacked Winster Castle at night. I only escaped with my life!" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph hurriedly explained.

"What?" The emperor's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly asked: "Where are the others? Where are the sanctuaries? And where are the reserve students?"

"Stephen has completely destroyed Winster Castle, they~" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph said helplessly: "I'm afraid the situation is more dire!"

"What?" the emperor suddenly said angrily: "Winster Castle was destroyed? Not one of the holy masters who were cultivated with great difficulty escaped?"

"Yes, yes!" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph said with his head lowered.

"It's you!" The emperor immediately picked up the tea cup and smashed it, and then said angrily: "You bastard! In order to let you organize shadow assassins for decades, I have thrown in more than 1,000 Ten thousand gold coins! More than 10 million gold coins! Did you just waste it all on me?”

When Shadow Sword Saint Joseph heard this, he was immediately speechless. In fact, it is no wonder that the emperor was angry, and it was also true that the losses he caused this time were too heavy. You know, he has been organizing shadow assassins for decades, and receives hundreds of thousands of gold coins every year. So the total funds spent did reach a terrifying 10 million gold coins. With such a large capital investment, no one else would be so angry if they lost all their money.

Of course, the emperor was angry. Why isn't Shadow Sword Saint Joseph angry? You know, the reason why he was able to win the emperor's trust was because of the shadow assassin organization. Although he spent tens of millions of gold coins on the emperor, after all, he managed to get 5 saints, plus hundreds of elite masters, which was only No profit or loss.

But now it's good, not only the five saints are finished. Moreover, even the old nest and the seeds of training inside were wiped out. This would be tantamount to completely erasing the Shadow Assassin Organization. If he wanted to recover, it wouldn't be possible within a few decades, but would the emperor be willing to give him another tens of millions of gold coins in support? Even if the emperor supports it, the old mage will definitely not help him train magicians anymore. in other words. I am afraid that the Shadow Assassin Organization will never be able to reorganize in the future. In addition, he himself had a disabled hand and could never return to his previous state. All this combined means that poor Shadow Sword Saint Joseph is no longer worthy of the emperor's attention.

Once the emperor's trust is lost. So what else can he do as a cripple? Perhaps the best outcome is to die in obscurity for the rest of his life. Such an outcome is obviously too cruel for an ambitious sword master like him. Thinking of this, Shadow Sword Master Joseph wanted to bite the old mage alive.

Thinking of this, Shadow Sword Saint Joseph immediately said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, although the assassination was my fault, that **** Stephen should also come to me? Why did he take out the entire Shadow Assassin Organization to vent his anger? He This clearly means he doesn’t take you seriously. His Majesty’s entire decades of hard work have been ruined. This is all his fault. Can’t you let him off lightly?”

"You still have the nerve to say it!" The emperor then yelled: "If you hadn't made your own decision, would I have suffered such heavy losses? As for Stephen, I, what can I do to him if I don't spare him?"

"You should send someone to arrest him and then sentence him to his crime!" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph said immediately.

"Are you **** stupid?" The emperor then said angrily: "Stephen just killed a group of assassins who assassinated the princess. He had no merit but no fault. What excuse should I use to judge him?"

"This~" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph heard this. It suddenly dawned on me. It turns out that although they went on a killing spree, they were still on the right side. If this thing breaks out. They indeed had merit and demerit, after all, it was the shadow assassin who assassinated the princess first!

Then the emperor continued to scold: "Besides, don't you know Mr. Stephen's status in the Griffin Empire? I will give the order, who dares to arrest him? Do you dare?"

"This~" Shadow Sword Master Joseph immediately shrank in fear as soon as he heard this, thinking to himself, if I were to meet him face to face, I'm afraid he would kill me on the spot without even being able to issue an arrest order.

"Huh!" The emperor snorted coldly, then took a few deep breaths, remembered something again, and couldn't help but cursed bitterly again: "Damn it, Stephen made me lose tens of millions of gold coins, but... I can’t blame him, but I have to say good things to him!”

"Huh? Why is this?" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph immediately asked in confusion.

"You still have to ask? Idiot! How many people have you killed over the years? If Stephen makes the shadow assassins public, will the relatives of those killed not be able to eat me?" The emperor said angrily: " I can’t ask him to keep it a secret!”

When Shadow Sword Saint Joseph heard this, he suddenly realized. It turns out that in the decades since the Shadow Assassins were established, they did more than just training, they also did a lot of work. Most of them deal with politicians who are not pleasing to the emperor. Those guys who dared to confront the emperor naturally had some support and were not afraid of the emperor dealing with them openly, so the emperor could only use shadow assassins to deal with them. The Shadow Sword Master's men did a good job indeed. Even if those people were killed, they were all well disguised. Although some relatives of the deceased also suspected the emperor, they had no evidence, so they could only leave it at that.

And if the old mage exposes the shadow assassin in a rage, the emperor will be very happy. You must know that the dead are not all people from the Griffin Kingdom, but also nobles from other small and medium-sized forces in the mainland, and even occasionally nobles from big countries are mixed in. If the relatives of the deceased learn the truth, they will probably unite together. By then, under internal and external troubles, his throne will not be stable. The emperor's head would explode just thinking about such serious consequences.

Now that Shadow Sword Master Joseph knew the seriousness of the matter, he certainly did not dare to force the emperor and Stephen to fall out, and hurriedly changed the subject and said: "Your Majesty, do you think the shadow assassin matter is still going on? ”

"Are you still talking nonsense? Do you think I still have 10 million for you to squander?" the emperor cursed angrily.

"No, no, I definitely won't use that much this time. You forgot, I still have a group of elites under my command, including dozens of masters who have reached level six." Shadow Sword Saint Joseph hurriedly explained: " I have improved the promotion plan and can greatly increase the success rate. As long as you support me, I promise to get you two more Sanctuary Assassins in one year at most!”

When the emperor heard this, he immediately frowned and said, "How much will it cost?"

"Oh, half a million gold coins!" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph said hurriedly: "Exchange half a million gold coins for two holy masters. Your Majesty, I think this deal is worth it!"

"What a heck, I have to get in with dozens of level six masters!" The emperor was obviously not that easy to deceive. He then said angrily: "Your success rate is less than one tenth, how can you do it?" Isn’t this a waste of talent?”

"Your Majesty, there is nothing I can do? The success rate is too difficult to increase!" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph said hurriedly: "However, the masters of the holy domain are completely different from the sixth-level masters. Normally, Only one out of a hundred level six masters can enter the holy realm, but I can do it with three or even four, which is already pretty good!"

"Alas!" The emperor sighed and said, "Can't we think of a way? It also cost a lot of gold coins to train these dozens of sixth-level masters? It's such a waste, I really can't bear it! ”

"Your Majesty, if you don't want to give up the child, you won't be able to lure the wolf. There is nothing you can do about it!" Shadow Sword Saint Joseph said hurriedly: "You should still focus on the overall situation!"

"Yes!" The emperor let out a long breath again, then waved his hands tiredly and said: "Let me think about this matter again, you can go and rest first!"

"Yes!" Although Shadow Sword Saint Joseph was unwilling to do so, he could only retreat helplessly.

After casually sending away the Shadow Sword Master, the emperor who had suffered heavy losses seemed to have aged ten years for a moment. He couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Teacher, you are too cruel! You can't leave a note for me as a student. A way to survive? ”

Just when the emperor sighed, the old mage who failed in the pursuit also returned to the magic tower. After seeing Lao Xie, Lan Fake and Sven, he angrily cursed: "Joseph is such a son of a bitch. He is not worthy of being a swordsman! He is a coward! He only knows how to run away!"

"Ha!" When Lao Xie heard this, he immediately said in a funny voice: "I said, you didn't let him run away, did you?"
