126 The Boxs Use (1/2)

Yvonne turned toward the two consorts who laid unconscious on the ground.

”You can also get lost.”

She stated then sent them two kicks, that propelled them in the air and threw them back into their respective palaces.

”Neat.”

Konrad couldn't help but say as Yvonne now turned toward him.

”Follow me.”

Yvonne turned heels, stepping back into her palace where she had her maids clean the aftermath and tend to the injured eunuchs. Then, with Konrad at her heels, she returned to her chambers.

The door closed behind him, and Yvonne spun to face him.

”Konrad, I assume you know the consequences of your actions.”

”They may cost me my life.”

Konrad straightforwardly replied.

”And still, you chose to obey. Would the empress be pleased by hearing this?”

”Her majesty would certainly not protect me in this matter. From now on, I can only rely on your grace.”

Yvonne's lips curled into a mesmerizing smile.

”Boy, you're smart, but be careful that you end up outsmarting yourself.”

Konrad's face contorted into a frown.

”You and I both know that when this matter is reported, for the sake of their dignity, those consorts would never dare say that they got slapped into a bloody pulp by a trivial eunuch boy.

They will naturally shove all the blame on me. Otherwise, that matter would disgrace them for their entire lives.

At the end of the day, getting shamed by Yvonne is still a much better deal than getting shamed by Konrad.”

Yvonne had clearly seen through Konrad's mind. Indeed, the worst his deeds were, the least likely those consorts were of reporting his name. They would definitely look for ways to retaliate from the shadows. However, allowing such a shameful matter to spread wasn't something they could endure.

”Your grace is wise.”

Since Yvonne could think to this stage, there was no point in trying to deceive her. Yvonne eyed Konrad from head to toe, trying to find some extraordinariness within him.

”Oh? First step Transcendent Priest, Half-Step Transcendent Knight?”

A seventeen years old Transcendent level cultivator didn't exist within the Holy Flame Empire. This was already the Celestial Church's level. Where did Verena find such a human boy?

Konrad could use his Transformation Skill to conceal or change his outer cultivation level at will. However, since he wanted to gain the other party's attention, he should at least show his worth.

However, he'd overestimated his effect on Yvonne.

”Not bad.”

Yvonne rarely gave such an assessment. However, in Konrad's ears, those two words were almost derisive, and he struggled to not let his face contort into a grimace.

”Why did Verena send you to me? She never bothered with me before.”

”Her majesty wanted me to break your ties with the holy consort and lead you to her camp.”

That Konrad so straightforwardly answered her question, took Yvonne aback.

”What camp? I'm merely repaying a favor. Since Else helped my waste of a son, lending her a hand here and there is not excessive.”

While Wenzel was only Yvonne's adopted son, she'd raised him with utmost care and high expectations. Unfortunately, as children often did, he proved to be a great disappointment.

If it stopped there, it wouldn't be that problematic. However, not content of disappointing her at every turn, he also grew into a degenerate who only knew how to abuse women.

Yvonne had long since considered castrating him herself. For Olrich to think such a thing capable of disturbing her only proved how little of her he understood.

As for joining Else in her endeavors, those were words they spread to deter Else's opponents. While Yvonne didn't mind helping her here and there, to go as far as to fully embrace her side was utterly ridiculous.
