บท 9: CHAPTER 9: ROYAL SLAUGHTER
Me, Peggy and Kelly went towards the castle. While James, Abigai and Lucy went to have the night out if town.
I told the Bundy sisters that since there will be a lot of Royal Knights, they might feel our presence.
The plan is to go towards the service entrance and head to the kitchen. I decided to put sleeping potion on all their food. They agreed to the plan since that is how they got done in.
We all use blood mist and shadow hide skill. At the kitchen, they were preparing the food buffet style. I took out one of the elixers i concucted. It's a medicine with a delayed effect. This potion will start to take effect after after 2 hours. The sleeping effect will last 2 days.
We just stayed in the shadows and waited till the medication take effect.
The castle guards after eating, releived the guards on duty so they can eat too. The staff ate in shifts within the 2 hours. Before the potion take effect, everyone in the castle already ate the meal with the potion.
One by one people started dropping. The people in which the potion hasn't taken affect yet were panicking, and headed to the weapons room.
We just waited for another hour before we start the slaughter.
"Okay! Let the slaughter begin! Please leave the staff unharmed and kill the rest! Oh! don't forget to loot them. They won't need it anymore anyways."😁
They were smiling widely. They killed all the royal knights first. I head straight to the treasure room and looted all the royal treasures. It was a lot. The system told me that it was 100 billion in gold coins, 1 billion in silver coins, 100 million in bronze coins and a million in copper coins. I also got 11 tons of magical cores, jewels and crown jewels.
I then went towards the library and looted all the books. When the books entered my inventory, the system read all the information and it came flooding my brain. I had a slight headache. I recieved more skills from it. Afterwards, I went towards the mage research room and stole all the supplies they have. I ended up with 700 interspacial rings and 5 interspacial bags. I saw mages on the floor and used <BLOOD STEAL>. I learned the basics of <SPACE MAGIC>, but from the memories of these mages no one has passed the basics. It just deal with small dimensions for the developement of spacial items.
The other two went on the killings spree. They killed all the main royal family and looted them, then the ministers. They left the rookie knights alone since they are still innocent. They opened each door in the castle killing the people they deemed needs to be killed.
I on the other hand went towards the underground prison. I changed my appearance into Sasuke Uchiha from naruto anime.
I released the people who looked innocent. I look at the slaves and told them to drink the curse cure potion. I also gave them 1,000 gold coins each for them to start over. They don't feed the prisoners so they escaped from falling asleep.
I then went towards the weaponry. I took everything. Armor, staves and weapons.
I already got most of it. Why stop there right.
I went towards each room and cleaned it out. I have a lot of members in my coven now. I need beds chairs and tables. I also looted bed linens, clothes and footwears. I went to the storeroom and loot all the food, wines and baking materials. I even stole the oven, plates and silverware. In short i emptied the castle.
Me and the girls finished up with a smile on our faces. We went to the back of the castle and saw horses and livestocks.
"System, can i store livestock in my inventory?" i asked
[YES! THEY WILL BE IN SUSPENDED ANIMATION! THEY WILL BE SEALED IN FRESHNESS]
I smiled at the response. I took all the milk cows, pigs, chicken and goats. I left the horses alone since i dont need to ride ig i can fly. I also stole all the feed for their food.
We were happily walking back to the in and meet up with the rest.
"Okay! Sleep well tonight! We are leaving tomorrow. The castle people will sleep for 2 days so no one will be alerted and shut down the city. Also, the kingdom will probably be okay since the next king will be the duke and he has his own knights and soldiers. He has his own money too."
They nodded. James also filled his ring with clothes for everyone. Peggy and Kelly has interspacial ring on each fingers. They looted the king and found many spacial rings filled with gold.
"Haaa~...Is this the feeling of being rich. I have more money than i can spend, but I don't need anything. Maybe I should start an immortal orphanage." i said to myself.
The next morning' we checked out of the inn. We headed to the slave market again to get servants and caretakers for the livestock. I bought 10 maidservants, 1 cook and 5 livestock farmers. They are all weak, so I will not make them part of the coven.
Our group started to head out the gate and into the forest. Once we are far enough, I ordered them to close their eyes. When they did, i immidiately sucked them into my inventory.
"Okay! From here on out, we are flying towards the east. I will give you 5 mana elixers to replenish your mana. I can just take you into my inventory and fly, but I want you to train in flying and it will help expand your mana pool."
The nodded and i gave them the elixers.
"Let me know if you are tired, i will slow down to the slowest person's speed! Let's go!"
We flew just below to the speed of sound. After 8 hours of flight, Abigail felt her mana depleted. We landed and took a break with snacks. Everyone taken a drink of the mana elixer and we again flew eastward continuing our journey. After another 8 hours, We landed and made camp to sleep throught the night. My 2 commanders cannot sleep due to nightvisions. Night is like daytime in their eyes.
"Yep! I had that problem before. I only sleep because i need my mana to replenish faster. I used to use blindfolds. But if you don't want to sleep it's okay." i said
The next morning, we were surrounded by flying waverns. Within a few seconds Peggy and Kelly did a quick work on the wyverns. Not to waste materials and experience points, i used <BLOOD STEAL> on the wyverns and put their dried corps to the inventory.
"I think it's about time the castle people wake up." 😏 "Okay Let's keep on moving"
_______________________________________
Meanwhile at the castle...
"Aaaaah!", "Eeeeeeeeeii!"
Screams can be heard around the castle. The leftover soldiers and knights tried to get everyone situated.
"The king! The queen! They are all dead! The royal family!" - (head maid servant)
"What!" said the remaining supreme knight.
"Quick, inform the duke and tell him to prepare an emergency inauguration to be king. Close all city gates! No one go in or out! I want casualty report and bring me the chef who cooked the food!" -(supreme knight)
Everyone was in a state of panic. Later that day, the casualty report came in.
"All the royal knights are dead! I'm the only supreme knight left, all mages and magic knights are dead. Atleast they spared all the grand knights and everyone below that rank. This is truly horrible." -(supreme knight)
"Sir! the duke will arrive as early as in 2 days, also we interrogated the chef and we got nothing. Since he is responsible for the food, we imprisoned him in the dungeon. The thing is, when we went down the dungeon. Most of the slaves got freed, and prisoners gave a composite of what the intruder look like." -(messenger soldier)
He handed the picture drawing of Sasuke Uchiha from naruto anime to thr supreme knight.
"Make a lot of copies of these and make wanted posters dead or alive. We do not have weapons so exchange some horses for funds. I can't believe we got robbed. I don't even have a knife or armor. Tell all staff and soldiers that their pay will be at a later date after we collect some taxes." -(supreme knight)
The supreme knight was having a nervous breakdown. Everyone got robbed, even clothes are gone. Their beds gone and everthing.
2 days later...
The convoy arrived with the duke. He brang everything from his castle including food and provision.
When the duke read the report from the supreme knight, his jaws hang open. He had to do damage control quickly.
He first restock the storeroom. He then paid all the salaries of everyone. He bought livestock and meet with the local blacksmith.
He made a deal with the blacksmith to half their taxes in exchange for weapons and armors. Later that day, he was inaugurated as king and his son as the crown prince.
He issued a reward of 1,000,000 gold pieces on the wanted sign. He also want to see if they can track down the runaway slaves using the slave seal tracker. (he won't find them)
Little by little the kingdom went back to normal or even better. The new king is honest and not corrupt. His son is also well raised. The new queen was a humanitarian that started an orphanage to prevent child slavery.
As time went by, king after king. The incident became stories and later on forgotten in the passage of time
