<h4>Chapter 1184 - Stay Alive!</h4>


    Henry sat in his off with the Baymardians and his men, worrying about the incident yesterday.


    Yesterday, if not for the Baymardians and a few of his men, he would''ve ended up dead.


    Everyone''s face was grim and dark when thinking about yesterday''s matter.


    But little did they know that this was just the beginning because, within another side of the city, the culprit was more than ready to show them hell!


    ...


    Within a normal-sized noble courtyard, a youngdy, all dressed up in blue, was currentlyying down on her scented bed as if passing the time.


    In a few more hours, it will be time for the Family gathering to begin.


    So she had been made ready by her maids and would only retouch her powder just before she stepped out of her courtyard.


    More importantly, she had been waiting for a letter from THEM!


    That''s right.


    This youngdy, who seemed harmless and as weak as a crumpled flower, was the real culprit behind Henry''s attack.


    Soon, there was a slight knock on her balcony window.


    ~Knock. Knock. Knock.


    "Get it!" She replied, and instantly, one of her hidden guards moved like lightning towards the balcony door and returned with a letter in his hand.


    "Master... It''s here."


    "Good," Ezenia said excitedly before taking the letter from the guard''s hands hastily.


    She opened it up, read it and was first a little disappointed before smiling broadly instead


    Well, they did fail to take care of Henry yesterday ording to n.


    But she wasn''t all that worried.


    Why? Because once Ulrich was finally rescued and brought back by the other T.O.E.P group that went to save him, they would then regroup and takedown Henry altogether.


    So even though they failed this first attempt, there would be more and more future attempts until they got it done.


    But they decided not to move Henry first until the rest of their team got back from Baymard.


    Yes. They sent their people to several other T.O.E.p spies and groups around Pyno, telling everyone to meet at a certain rendezvous point.


    And by now, those called should''ve all met up, and should now be heading towards Baymard together.


    It was already the beginning week of July.


    So from the distance between Baymard and the rendezvous point, the men should arrive inte August.


    From there, they will rescue the 1st Deiferus Prince, Ulrich, ording to Ezenia''s request, bring him.m back and ce him km the throne, be it by hook or crook.


    So even though they didn''t get Henry now, they weren''t in a rush.


    In fact, they decided toy low and let him be instead.


    Now that their first attack had missed, Henry would be on high alert, putting up all defences around him.


    It''s not that they were scared or afraid of Henry and his so-called defences.


    The issue was that they didn''t want to sabotage the main n, which was to help Ulrich out.


    So in a way, they were only testing Henry''s defence level to bettere up with an impable n to kill Henry and ce Ulrich on the throne once and for all!


    Ezenia read the letter and wasn''t worried. It was understandable why they took this approach instead.


    In fact, if they killed Henry now, then with him out of the way, more people would start entering thepetition for the crown.


    That is, within this time frame that Ulrich hadn''te back to Deiferus yet, do you know how many frogs would try to jump out of their wells?


    Ulrich should be rescued from Baymard towards the end of August.


    And from there, they didn''t n to use the Baymardian ships and get caught. Rather, they would spend several months on ship to get to Deiferus''s shores before spending several other months to get to the Capital city.


    And you know, since the Baymardians had those fast vehicles and ships, with the help of Henry, they might''ve long stationed warrants, wanting to capture or find Ulrich within Deiferus by the time they got here.


    Nheless, Ezenia wasn''t worried about this all because to her, the T.O.E.P we''re already invincible in her heart.


    Their leaders were people from Morgany.


    So she believed that if Baymard could make all these things, then Morgany should even be 10 or 20 times better than Baymard.


    Hence, it was hard for her to see another ce doing better than Morgany.


    And that''s where her absolute trust came from.


    It''s also one of the many reasons why she kept smiling victoriously in this matter.


    Soon, her love will return to Deiferus.


    Thus, it was actually a good thing that Henry was still alive.


    He could remain as a shield on the throne, keeping all the mad dogs brooding in the dark at bay until her baby arrived.


    And the moment hended, they would kill Henry and immediately proim Ulrich as Monarch.


    Yes! Her one-life-time wish within the Order would then be fulfilled.


    Some might think her foolish to use it on Ulrich. But she didn''t think so. She loved him, and she knew that he felt something for her too.


    .


    Ezenia smiled when she thought of the future.


    A merry life with her future husband, being the only woman he would ever marry.


    Of course, she would also kill that scum mother of hers who always liked seducing Ulrich and other younger boys too.


    Since she liked men so much, then she would give her all the men she wanted, turning her mad, before letting her body die and deteriorate during the process.


    Yes. Why not let 10 to even 200 men have their fill from morning to night, continuously, not giving the woman time to rest?


    Heh. To her, that woman who calls herself ''Mother'' was as good as DEAD in her eyes.


    Ezenia slowly folded the letter away and gave it to her guards: "Burn."


    "Yes, master... But apart from this news, master... we still have to prepare for the danger ahead."


    Ezenia''s eyes shone with a strange light: "Indeed. The killing window is in 2 weeks. So we must stay alive till the end!"


    The guards who heard this nodded in agreement too.


    No matter what, they had to stay alive!


    ...


    Like so, countless things still urred around Pyno as time flew by swiftly.


    And after a week and a half, Landon had other matters to n.


    That''s right.


    Apart from his wedding, he had to n the rescue of Princess Tilda.


    Yes. Before she turned 14 on September 28th, they had to carry the girl out of Dafaren!
