NovelEndChapter 209 Chapter 209 "South Regent, we meet again." "Oh?" The South Regent scanned Ethan from head to toe, but he could tell at a glance that Ethan possessed an extraordinary presence-just as commanding as the late Grand Marshal.
"Isn't this our first tmeeting each other?" Ethan replied calmly, "Seven days ago, I met you with my mentor." The South Regent chuckled. "I see, but someone as insignificant as you is hardly worth remembering. A dead man wouldn't remember much, anyway." The South Regent's smile immediately froze. That was the first tsomeone had dared to talk to him like that, throwing his insults back at him.
"How impudent!" his guard beside him shouted, his hand already gripping the riffle as he would pull the trigger on Ethan at any moment.

Then, he turned his cold, piercing gaze back to Ethan.
"You're the Grand Marshal's mentee, and today marks three days of his passing. Also, I've just claimed the title of South Regent, so it's a tof celebration.
"If you call'Your Highness,' I might just spare your life." Ethan's eyes remained calm. He had calone today, fully prepared for this confrontation.
"It's hard to say whether you'll be able to maintain the position as the South Regent.
"It's only three days since my mentor passed away, yet you've taken the title so quickly. It's hard not to question whether you truly have the power to hold onto that seat." If he truly had the strength, the South Regent should have claimed the power before the Grand Marshal died. He should not have waited for the Grand Marshal's death to call himself king.
To outsiders, it seemed like the South Regent had no choice but to stay lowkey because he could not defeat the Grand Marshal. He was just waiting for the Grand Marshal to be worn down before rushing to claim the throne, desperate for power. It was like the saying," When the cat is away, the mice will play!" The South Regent's expression darkened as he knew exactly what Ethan was implying.
"Heh, did you chere to provoke me?" Chapter 209 "No," Ethan said calmly, "I'm just here to tell you there's still a chance for redemption. You should know exactly why I'm here, and you have no other choice. Just giveyour answer." The South Regent frowned.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy was Ethan there? He really had no idea. At first, he thought Ethan had cto surrender. After all, his mentor had died, so what could a mere mentee do? Surrendering was the only option.
The South Regent replied, "I don't understand where you're getting at." Ethan stayed silent for a moment before saying, "It seems you're nothing but a mindless corpse." The South Regent was rendered speechless. They were talking just fine, so where did that insult cfrom all of a sudden? Noally, with my mentor in control, you and the others could unite to fight against him.
Now that he's gone, you're their greatest enemy.
"By proclaiming yourself as the South Regent so quickly, you have only made it worse. It's not just with other factions but even among your subordinates, friends, and family." The South Regent's heart skipped a beat.
Ethan was right. Right now, his situation was dangerous, riddled with both internal and external threats. If internal and he made the wrong move, not only could he lose his title, but he could also lose his life. Ethan kept talking. "I only cfor one reason. I'm offering to tell you the location of your rivals' families in exchange for your troops to aid Riveria."
It was not that there were no soldiers left in Riveria, but Ethan did not want any unnecessary sacrifices. If the South Regent could send his troops to deal with the enemies within Riveria, Ethan would not need to spend a single cent or send any of his men, all while weakening every major force in the region. The South Regent's eyes were wide. The locations of his rivals' families?
