Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning.

As the New Year celebrations come to an end, the festive atmosphere gradually fades away.

When the news spread that His Majesty Bruno was about to enthronize the surrendered, everyone focused their attention on tomorrow's enthronement ceremony.

The conferment of titles on the imperial nobility was a sign of complete war between the two countries.

The night of January 5th should have been a quiet night, but it was destined to be an extraordinary night.

Garrett was strolling in the Golden Feather Palace in his everyday finery.

From the guards' point of view, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to be in a very good mood, perhaps happy about having several powerful followers.

But underneath Garrett's calm appearance, his heart had already gone crazy.

Roning has become his nightmare. The stronger he becomes, the more powerless he becomes.

He knew that if he wanted to deal with Roning, he had to do it as soon as possible.

If the time was dragged out like Bruno's, Garrett had no idea how much Ronin would grow.

Scorching sun?

No, based on the speed at which Luo Ning was growing, it definitely couldn't be Jiaoyang.

Now the opponent can kill Jiaoyang and many Silver Moons and Meteors by himself, and by that time he may have become a legend.

Therefore, Garrett wanted to eliminate Ronin as soon as possible, but when he wanted to carry out this idea, his father Bruno became an obstacle.

Garrett walked slowly forward, and in front of him was the king's bedroom.

He remembered that afternoon when Ferrens and he were basking in the sun and having afternoon tea.

At that time, Ferens told him, "Your father Bruno is old, and his mind is flawed. If you follow his plan, the kingdom will eventually fall into Ronin's hands. After all, as long as Ronin kills you, he will have the qualifications to seize the throne."

"You are equally qualified!" said Garrett.

"No, we don't. We don't have the talent and strength like him!"

Ferens stared at Garrett. "But you are different. You are now also the blazing sun. As long as you take a step forward, you will no longer be afraid of Ronin. Only then will you not be assassinated and be qualified to continue to lead the Kingdom of Alduin and become the only ruler of this continent!"

Garrett remained silent, but in fact, on his way to Ferensburg, he had already had the idea of ​​replacing him.

But the inner struggle still stopped him, until the news that Ronin became the Duke completely overwhelmed him.

"Your Highness!"

In front of His Majesty the King's bedroom, the guards bowed and greeted him.

Garrett nodded and walked in without being stopped.

He crossed the square and the gallery, entered the palace, and came to the corridor where Bruno's bedroom was.

"Your Highness, why are you here so late?"

Captain Philemon of the Royal Knights was waiting outside the bedroom, with him were a guard and two servants.

"I couldn't sleep, so I came to talk to my father. Captain Philemon, you guys have worked hard!"

Philemon smiled slightly, "This is what I should do. But His Majesty should have gone to bed. Do you need me to wake him up?"

"That's it."

Garrett waved at him and said, "When he wakes up tomorrow, tell him something for me."

"I am happy to serve you, Your Highness. What is it?"

Philemon didn't think much about it when he saw this. He just thought that the other party had some confidential information that should not be heard by outsiders, so he trotted over.

Garrett leaned forward slowly, "This matter is..."

puff!

A short blade pierced directly through Philemon's throat. Facing the Sun Knight who was intent on murder, Philemon was unprepared and had no time to react even though he had the strength of a peak gold level.

He didn't even have time to scream before he was wiped out by the lightning and thunder.

When the other guards saw this scene, their pupils contracted violently and their brains seemed to be broken. They neither resisted nor screamed. They seemed to be frozen.

Garrett was not still. His body was shaking, but he was able to control himself so that his movements did not change.

He flashed and purple lightning flashed across the corridor, covering all the guards and servants, destroying all their lives.

Looking at the corpse slowly falling to the ground, Garrett's eyes were red, his expression was both ferocious and seemed very excited.

He took a deep breath, slowly opened the door and walked in.

Bruno was a Silver Knight after all, and his hearing was very good. Even though the bed was far from the corridor, the sound of falling still woke him up.

He sat up and asked, "Philimon, what's wrong?"

Just then, Garrett pushed the door open.

"Oh, it's you, Garrett. What's the emergency that brings you here so late?"

It can be seen that Bruno had no defenses against his son. Even after seeing Garrett, he did not doubt why Philemon outside the door did not respond.

"Father, I came here so late because I have something urgent to discuss with you."

Garrett turned around and closed the door, blocking out the bloody smell coming from outside.

Bruno nodded and looked at the woman who was sleeping next to him and had also woken up: "Kaiya, go to the next room and rest for a while. Garrett and I have something to talk about."

Although there is no polygamy system here, most nobles have lovers, and this is a tacit understanding.

Like Bruno's father, the reason why Klinsmann died quickly in his later years was largely because he wasted a lot of energy on women.

Although Bruno did not have that many lovers, he did have a few, and Kaia tonight was one of them.

"Okay, Your Majesty."

Kaiya didn't hide it. She got up, put on her clothes, and then walked outside.

Just as she passed Garrett, a cold dagger pierced her beautiful chest, and blood gushed out, staining the ground red.

Bruno showed a look of horror. He also forgot to scream. He just pointed at Kaya's body lying on the ground, his hands shaking constantly.

"you you you……"

Garrett didn't know whether he had completely let go or was so excited that he forgot his identity. He grinned and said, "Father, I gave you a choice that day, but you didn't follow my will!"

"What?"

Bruno didn't realize what the other party meant by choice, but he finally reacted to the current situation and shouted angrily: "Garrett, what are you doing!"

"What?"

Garrett's smile faded, and he took out a second-level dark magic shadow barrier spell scroll to block out the sound in the room.

"Father, I despair of your weakness and incompetence!"

He held the bloody short blade and slowly walked towards Bruno. "Your kindness and indulgence towards Ronin are extremely stupid in my eyes! If I don't come out to stop you, the Kingdom of Alduin will be destroyed in your hands!"

"You're crazy Garrett, I'm your father!"

Bruno roared, his eyes filled with anger and confusion.

These days he thought his son had changed, become calmer, and able to control his temper and personality.

He didn't expect that the other party became even crazier than before and even pointed the butcher knife at him.

"I know you are my father."

Garrett, however, remained unmoved, a cold gleam in his eyes.

"I'm not crazy, Father. I'm just doing what I have to do!"

His voice was low and firm, paranoid and crazy.

"The rise of Rhonin is unstoppable, yet you hesitate and allow him to grow stronger. I cannot let the kingdom of Alduin fall into his hands."

Bruno stood up from the bed tremblingly and took out the long sword hanging beside him.

The clear sound of the sword being unsheathed caused the temperature of the entire room to drop suddenly, becoming extremely cold.

"Garet, put down the blade in your hand now. I still acknowledge that you are my son and the first heir to the Kingdom of Alduin!"

Bruno's voice was trembling. The son whom he had placed high hopes on actually wanted to kill him.

"You are betraying your family and your country!"

"Don't be stupid, Garrett!"

"Betrayal? No, I am only saving the kingdom of Alduin."

Garrett narrowed his eyes, "I remember you were the one who taught me the first time I practiced sword fighting. At that time, I thought you were the most powerful knight in the world. But as I got older, I realized that you were too weak. This is the real reason why Ferens and the others didn't obey you!"

He flashed forward, knocked the sword out of Bruno's hand, and kicked the other away.

"Now I am the Knight of the Prideful Sun. Even at my full strength, I can rival the Legend!"

Bruno spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale.

He never expected that he would die in the palace, at the hands of his own son.

"Wake up, kid! Your anger towards Ronin and your paranoia have driven you crazy and made you lose yourself!"

"I'm sorry, father!"

Garrett walked aside and picked up Bruenor's sword, "Your death will be the first step in my efforts to save Alduin."

His hands trembled slightly, but he thrust the sword into Bruno's chest without hesitation.

Blood gushed out, staining Bruno's pajamas red, and the life force of the king, who was less than sixty years old, quickly faded away.

Garrett looked down at his father with an icy look in his eyes.

"I have to do this!"

Bruno's vision became increasingly blurred. He slowly raised his hand, not knowing whether he wanted to grab something or hold something, but in the end, his hand fell weakly to the ground.

"You...will ruin...the entire country!"

Garrett responded: "This is better than doing nothing and handing the country over to others."

Bruno's vision went completely dark.
