Chapter 357 We Have Lost This War

Jalen rushed to where Finley was.

'Damn it! Everything is out of control now.'

He suddenly stopped running and widened his eyes.

'No way. Is he dead too?'

He saw Aya grabbing Finley's neck twenty meters from him.

"Hmm?" Aya turned around to face him when she noticed him. "Are you looking for this person?"

Even though Finley was still alive, but he was dying.

There was only a thin thread separating him from death because Aya did not show mercy earlier.

"Here, take him." She threw Finley at Jalen as if she were throwing a tool, not a human. "Don't worry. He is still alive. Well, he will die soon though."

Jalen immediately caught Finley. "Your Majesty..."

"Jalen, we have lost the war." it took Finley several seconds to finish his words because he was dying.

Jalen immediately skimmed his surroundings.

'Ah! Your Majesty is right. We have lost the war.'

He saw Finley's subordinates getting killed by Ace's followers.

Their dying screams echoed in every part of the battlefield. Some of them even had lost their fighting spirit because they knew they had lost the war.

"Hmm? You did not kill him?" Ace threw a question at Aya.

"He needed to have a farewell conversation with his people, so I did not kill him on purpose." Aya responded instantly. "What about your opponents? Where are they?"

"Their corpses are over there." Ace answered while pointing his claws toward his back.

Aya shifted her gaze from Ace to Jalen. "So, what are you going to do to him?"

"I will let them have their last conversation first." Of course, Ace would kill Jalen because Jalen was his enemy.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

"It looks like this war is almost over." Aya said after looking at their surroundings.

"Yeah. It will over soon." Ace uttered.

As Ace was talking with Aya, two of her trusted subordinates appeared and knelt on one knee before her.

"My queen, we have completed our mission." Nina gave her report. "This war will end in about ten minutes with victory on our side."

"Well done." Aya responded.

"Boss..."

"Leader..."

"Leader..."

There was no third option.

This was the reason why Ace praised Jalen because he was a brave and stupid warrior.

After trying his best to stand up, Jalen spoke, "Ice dragon, let's fight again."

"I knew it! He is a warrior like me." Fyre stated.

"He is stupid, but a brave warrior." Calne added.

"I'm in a good mood now, so I will give you a quick death." After saying that, Ace rushed toward Jalen.

Jalen only managed to block one of his attacks before finally Ace's claws pierced his body.

"Cough..." Jalen coughed up blood.

"For your bravery, I will tell you something." Ace said in a low voice so that Aya and the others would not hear it. "Previously, I had never had any intention of attacking the Xiriel Kingdom."

He then continued, "I attacked this kingdom because your king had done something bad to me and my hometown. I only want to seek revenge."

Ace kept telling the truth. "In other words, he is the cause of this disaster. You were wrong to give your loyalty to a bad king like him."

"Ice dragon, I will die soon, so why are you still lying to me?" Jalen did not believe Ace's words immediately.

Ace moved his head to Jalen's right ear and whispered, "I'm not lying to you. And I'm actually not a magical beast, but a human. I live in a small city called Nightshire City. Your king was the one who made me like this."

Jalen widened his eyes in surprise.

'What?'

He found it hard to believe what he was hearing.

'Did His Majesty lie to me?'

Finley told him that Ace attacked their kingdom because he was bored.

In other words, he wanted to kill people for fun.

This was the reason why he and his family agreed to help Finley immediately because he wanted to defend their hometown.

'Wait. Don't tell me...'

He suddenly remembered about the Holmes family.

Even though he still did not know the truth, he had heard some rumors about the Holmes family or the reason why the Holmes family suddenly disappeared.

'Your Majesty, did you use me and my family too? No. Did you use your people for your own benefit?'

He coughed blood again.

"I...I regre-" before Jalen had finished his words, he died.

Ace looked at Jalen's corpse intently.

'Just don't give your loyalty to just anyone in your next life.'
