章 347: Past & Present!

"I admit I was behind their disappearance. But they deserved it!" Damien didn't kneel to the Emperor. Instead, he stood before him calmly.

The officials were kneeling around them.

The Sun was sitting on the throne, and his eyes were on Damien

To his surprise, Damien didn't tremble like his officials even though he was looking at him.

On top of that, he dared to meet his gaze.

'Arrogant.'

The emperor grinned at Damien.

Suddenly, they heard the Prime Minister's voice.

"What crime could be deserving of death? I hope your majesty won't listen to any lies and punish this evil-doer!"

Dozens of officials, whose dignity he had already bought, immediately demanded that Damien be punished.

Damien looked at them in disdain, "You guys are like eunuchs running their mouths. Truly shameless. But it's not surprising to see you behave this way."

His words pissed them off.

Their faces turned beet red out of embarrassment upon hearing his words.
