The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 590

Chapter 590: A Hundred Lifetimes

Rose knew that the Cardinal must have a hidden agenda because there was no way he would come to the Holy Temple without preparing something beforehand.

Still, she didn’t care.

She knew the Cardinal was her father, but that didn’t matter to her anymore.

Rose simply watched as the people grabbed the Cardinal and held him down, just as he had once ordered the holy soldiers to capture her.

Back then, she had been the one surrounded by people with nowhere to escape.

Now, it was his turn.

But even then, for some reason, the Cardinal barely tried to fight back. He hardly struggled at all, almost as if he had already accepted what was going to happen to him.

The people around him tore him apart without mercy. They pulled his limbs from his body one by one and tore away his skin while he was still alive. In the end, they grabbed his head and pulled until it separated from his neck.

Soon, the Cardinal was dead.

His body continued to be torn apart until almost nothing but bones remained.

Rose watched everything from beginning to end, yet she didn’t feel even the smallest bit of happiness.

She didn’t know if it was because she had already become too numb to feel anything, or because the Cardinal had never meant enough to her for his death to matter.

Either way, she felt nothing.

There was no joy. There was no relief. There was not even satisfaction after finally getting her revenge.

Her heart was simply empty.

Rose slowly looked at the people surrounding her. Thousands of them had become nothing more than puppets under her control. They had destroyed the temples for her, hunted down the nobles for her, and killed the Cardinal with their own hands.

There was nothing else she needed from them.

"Kill yourselves," Rose gave them the last order.

The command spread through them at once.

None of them hesitated. They simply obeyed, just as they had obeyed every other order she had given them. Rose did not stay to watch what happened next. The moment she gave the command, she turned around and walked back toward the Holy Temple.

Her footsteps echoed through the ruined hall as she entered.

Everything that had once made the temple beautiful had already been destroyed. The statues were broken, the paintings had been torn apart, and the holy books were scattered across the floor.

The altar where she had once knelt and prayed countless times was now nothing more than a pile of broken stone.

Rose walked past all of it until she reached the wooden box she had left behind.

She knelt and opened it.

Edmond’s face appeared before her.

For the first time since the Cardinal arrived, something finally appeared in Rose’s empty eyes.

She carefully lifted Edmond’s preserved head from the box and held it against her chest.
