“Ah!”
“Watch out!”
“Why are the killer bees attacking us?”
“What’s going on? Isn’t Rayden supposed to control them?”
Surprisingly, the Malone family was attacked by the killer bees as well.
Suddenly, they heard a sharp buzzing sound.
“What’s that?” someone asked.
They looked up and saw a gold–and–red butterfly hovering above Eliza’s head, its wings shimmering ominously, and the piercing sound was coming from it.
While the Malone family was still trying to make sense of the situation, the killer bees that had been attacking Eliza and Nolan suddenly stopped.
They were confused. “Why did the killer bees stop?”
“Could something have gone wrong with Rayden and the others?” someone asked.
A man quickly refuted, “No, that can’t be it. Something’s off! The ones attacking us haven’t stopped!”
Another man said, “Damn it, I get it now. That butterfly is the King Parasite. It can control the killer bees!”
Vance, who had finally caught his breath, gritted his teeth and said, “I saw that butterfly on the Holy Lady’s head earlier. It’s her! She must be Prince Regent’s sorcerer!”
“What?” Theodore and the others froze. Their faces pale with disbelief. Shock rippled through the group as the realization
hit them.
No one had expected that the sorcerer Nolan had been hiding all along was actually Eliza. And none of them had noticed it before.
“Looks like we underestimated this girl,” Sariyah remarked.
Isaac had been protecting her, so not a single killer bee had hurt her.
But seeing that Eliza was about to gain control of all the bees, Sariyah immediately ordered, “Now’s the time! We have to kill her before she takes full control of the killer bees!”
The Malone family members present immediately grasped the gravity of the situation.
If Eliza managed to command the killer bees, none of them would be able to escape.
“Who could’ve imagined?” someone muttered bitterly. “The bees we painstakingly prepared to deal with Nolan are now turning against us!”
“Theodore, now!” said Sariyah.
“Understood!” Theodore rushed forward immediately.
Even with the killer bees out of control, the Malone family had a backup plan.
“Malone Troops, assemble!” At Theodore’s command, a large number of men burst out of several nearby buildings around the training grounds.
The soldiers were clad in uniform armor, wielding weapons, and one of them carried a flag bearing the Malone family crest high into the air.
Nolan’s piercing gaze scanned the soldiers, his expression darkening as he took in their numbers. Just in the training grounds alone, there were at least four to five hundred of them, not to mention the rest scattered throughout Malone City.
It was quite a sizeable force.
“Lady Sariyah, it seems your family has been plotting rebellion for years. Have you also been colluding with foreign enemies all this time?” Nolan’s voice was icy, his expression grim.
Sariyah replied coolly, “And what if we have?”
Nolan laughed in disbelief. “And what if you ha

de his blood run cold.
If the Malone family had been colluding with foreign for all any, a meant when Bortenland was invaded, they were actually facing threats both from within and beyond their borders.
And during all those years he led the Black Flag into battle, Bortenland continued to suffer foreign infiltration, yet no one realized it.

Well, not entirely no one. The Malone family knew, and so did the ones pulling the strings in Hasen City.
An entire family was involved in treason. What an operation.
Nolan scoffed, “A bunch of traitorous scum. Even if you’re all executed and your heads displayed to the public, it wouldn’t be enough to appease the rage of the people of Woteria!”
Sariyah remained expressionless and said, “Prince Nolan, spare me your self–righteous remarks. My family has never walked the same path as you. Our choices are ours to make, and it’s none of your business.”
As soon as she finished speaking, her tone turned commanding. “What are you waiting for? Theodore, take a squad and kill them!”
“Yes!” Theodore immediately led the hundred–man team nearest to the training grounds and charged toward Eliza and Nolan.
The training grounds weren’t very large. When a hundred soldiers charged all at once, they nearly filled up the entire space. Nolan and a few Black Flag soldiers remained by Eliza’s side, holding their ground.
The Black Flag soldiers were seasoned veterans who had fought countless battles, so the Malone Troops were no match at all. They practically dropped dead the moment they got close.
In just a short time, the place was piled with dead bodies.
The slaughter shook the advancing Malone Troops, struck panic into the hearts of the Malone family, and even left Sariyah visibly pale.
Only a handful of Black Flag soldiers managed to wipe out nearly the entire hundred–man squad that charged up with Theodore in the blink of an eye, leaving just twenty or thirty standing!
