Chapter 502 The Choice Karl Made

“Shut up!” Karl shouted through gritted teeth. “You don’t deserve to speak of Asura!”

Upon seeing Karl’s hysterical reaction, Aidan reached out to wipe the blood from his face. Karl had left a wound that was about four finger spans on his head during their altercation earlier.

If it had been any other person who had received such a wound, they would have been sent to intensive care already. At this moment, however, Aidan’s wounds had stopped bleeding. Even the wound from earlier, from when Karl smashed the ashtray on top of his head, had already scabbed over.

It was not possible for an ordinary person to possess such extraordinary regenerative power.

This was the ability of Aidan Reed, a martial artist.

“Without a doubt, you, the Prince of Diyouli, are the strongest among Chanaea’s Eight Kings of War. If we’re talking about the strength of the army, the Eastern Army is practically invincible. I’m unaware of the rules in Chanaea, but if it were me, I would never acquiesce. So what if he’s Asura? Can he withstand missiles? Can he survive being sniped at long range? No! In the end, it doesn’t matter how powerful his martial arts skills are, he’s only a human being. If he’s human, he can be killed.”

“I’m telling you to shut up!” With a wave of his hand, Karl drew a short knife from the sheath concealed on his back and placed it across Aidan’s neck. The knife was sharp. Karl had barely exerted any pressure, but beads of blood were already forming on Aidan’s neck.

Nevertheless, Aidan’s gaze remained confident. “Karl, isn’t there a saying in Chanaea that’s along the lines of the enemy knows you best? We’ve been fighting for three years. I understand you very well. You’re definitely not someone who is subservient to others. You won’t kill me. You will need my support when you wish to become king.”

Aidan continued, “Moreover, I had your wife and children moved to Remdik as insurance. Don’t worry, they’re fine. In fact, they led hard lives when following you. The clothing on their backs was barely worth anything. However, if you agree to it, they can become nobles in Remdik.”

“You want them to be censured behind their backs and be called traitorous nobles?” Karl sneered. “I’d rather they die in your hands.”

Karl did not doubt Aidan’s words. When people like him had risen to a certain caliber, there was no need for them to stoop to a lowly tactic like lying.

Aidan grasped Karl’s blade with his fingers and gently pushed it away. “Karl, I never intended for you to betray your country. I also have no intentions of obtaining any intel from you. You only need to do what you wish to do.”

Upon saying that, Aidan turned his gaze to the four guards surrounding them. “I only wish to see you control Asura’s Office. The current Asura is too dangerous.”

“What are you after?” Karl glared at Aidan.

“If you become Chanaea’s true king, we want the northeast area. Think about it.” Aidan grabbed one of the remaining two cigars from the table and started to puff it leisurely.

Karl’s expression was filled with uncertainty. He stared at the four guards who wore complicated expressions before him. After what seemed like a very long time, he finally heaved a sigh. “You guys may leave. Do not speak of what you heard here today.”

“Understood,” the four guards replied in unison. However, their voices were tinged with hesitation and they seemed to have something else to say. They knew they had heard something they should not have today. If they were to reveal what they learned, they would likely lose their lives.

Presently, only thoughts of immediately leaving this place were on their minds.
