Chapter 269: 269
"Claus!" Iris's surprised voice sounded behind me .
I looked over my shoulder and winked . Then, I looked at the two young men in front of me with a righteous look .
"Guys, are you not ashamed about using numbers to bully a girl?"
The two young men's expressions turned grave, and the young men whose sword I grabbed jumped back with a wary look .
"Prince Claus . " He hissed .
"Yours truly . Why? Surprised to see me here?"
"You shouldn't be here . "
"But I am . "
"Damn it . " The two young men looked at each other before nodding . Then, both of them decided to retreat .
"Do you truly think you can escape?" I smiled in amusement and took a step forward .
Then, my sword intent flooded the forest .
The grass, the trees, the wind, the rocks . Everything became part of my sword . Then, they attacked the two young men!
Before they could react, their last protective barrier was activated .
I raised an eyebrow . "Rather durable . As expected of something able to receive one ninth-layer attack . "
The two young men were pale . After seeing my last attack, they felt like insects that could be stepped on at any time .
"P-Prince Claus, w-we are p-prince Bryan's men! You better not touch us!"
As soon as these words sounded, my gaze turned ice-cold .
"Bryan, huh . Is he related to the abnormality in the forest?" Although I already knew, it was necessary to put a show in front of Iris .
The two young men looked at each other with frightened looks, unwilling to mention a word .
I smirked . "Well, your expressions tell me everything . Let me think, if Bryan is behind this, then surely his goal is not limited to Iris, right? What is it then?"
The two young men looked at the ground unwilling to say a word .
But then, I smiled . "I see, it's me . "
Instantly, their bodies shook .
I continued . "However, Bryan is unable to orchestrate something like this . Mm, was it the crown prince? No, even he doesn't have enough power . He needed help . The Empress? Earl Carson? Both of them . If I'm not wrong, they bought some teachers from the institute just for this, right?"
With each word I said, the two young men turned paler and paler . Towards the end, they seemed as though they were looking at a demon .
God, fooling idiots is so easy .
"You are surprised, right? Well, I have more . If Alan's only goal is to kill me, then something like this is not necessary . Thus, he must have another goal . Revenge? No… It's more than that . . . I see, so it's what he is planning . "
"W-What?" One of the young men asked frightened .
"He will let some young nobles die and rescue the others . Thus, when this end, he will appear like a savior and get the loyalty of the survivors and the gratitude of several families . Mm, there are probably some other goals, but I have not thought of them yet . What do you think of my deduction?"
The two young men were completely terrified .
Actually, even Iris behind me was completely pale, although for a completely different reason .
"P-Prince Claus, that is–" Iris looked at me with an ashen white complexion .
