Chapter 405 She Doesn’t Have To Kill You Herself
The moment Raven’s words fell, everyone in the room widened their eyes in shock.
W–What?
They couldn’t believe their ears.
I suppose it’s also an honor, to kill you!
They assumed Raven had no idea of Lola’s identification, or she wanted to die.
Ellie blinked, then broke into unrestrained joy. ‘She is dead today!
Ignoring royal etiquette might have earned a slap on the wrist–but threatening to kill Princess Lola was treason.
Ellie couldn’t wait to see Raven dig her own grave,.
“Seize her!” the middle–aged commander behind Lola barked coldly, voice like steel.
“Yes, sir!”
But just as the soldiers were about to move, Lola raised her hand–halting them.
Then, she chuckled. “Kill me?”
She looked Raven up and down, her eyes brimming with disdain. “You?”
Raven’s lips curled into a cold, mocking smile.
Then, she waved her hand slightly.
A puff of near–invisible powder scattered in the air–drifting right toward Lola’s nose.
Lola felt the subtle movement and her face turned even colder.
Shhk!
A snake–shaped dart suddenly tore through the air–launched from Hiemaly’s hand.
With a sharp metallic whistle, it shot straight at Lola’s heart.
Lola’s pupils contracted violently.
On pure reflex, her body twisted to the side-
But thud! The dart struck her just right of center, embedding deep into her chest.
The force behind it was immense–nearly piercing straight through her body.
Blood burst from the wound, staining her white outfit red in an instant.
“The doctors and soldiers watching were stunned speechless.
Hiemaly lowered his arm, his voice as flat as ever. “She doesn’t have to kill you herself.”
The second he said it–Click! Click! Click!
Guns were drawn all around the room–soldiers pointing their weapons at Raven and Hiemaly with deadly intent.
The doctors nearest to them recoiled, trembling in fear.
And everyone stared at Raven and Hiemaly like they were madmen.
Before, they’d thought Raven was crazy.
Now it seemed… her bodyguard was even crazier.
He just attacked Lola–in the Sunset Empire’s palace. The royal family would never let them leave alive.
But just when everyone thought they’d be torn apart by bullets, Lola didn’t give the order to fire.
Instead, she clutched her bleeding chest tightly, her gaze drilling into Hiemaly like a blade.
“You… ambushed me. How dare you?”
Hiemaly’s face, usually cold as a glacier, showed the faintest trace of amusement.
But his words were still devoid of warmth. “Ambush you? Someone like you… doesn’t deserve it.”
Hisss!
Hisss!
