Release that Witch - Chapter 517

[Chapter 510 The Flower of Vengeance]

…

When Hill Fox walked into the basement of the palace, he felt his heart tremble—not fear, but excitement.

Uncontrollable excitement.

The flickering brilliance of the torches dances for him, and the echo of trampling on the flagstones praises him.

He had never thought that a dark and quiet basement could be so wonderful.

After reaching the bottom floor, Tasa searched his whole body again, then patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, “Go, don’t stay too long.”

Hill nodded, and couldn’t wait to walk into the darkness… through a Cutting the dark corridor, when he was approaching the edge of the cage, he slowed down instead.

It was a memorable moment, and he wanted to savor it.

Then he saw the murderer of his wife.

The false king Timothy Wimbledon.

In an instant, Hill covered his mouth, and his eyes filled with tears… Everything he did was not in vain, and the result came sooner than he thought.

If the wife can see this scene, she should also smile, right?

“What… person?” The other party turned around and leaned eagerly to the railing, “Is it you, the devil… have you changed your mind?”

Hill walked out of the shadows and walked to the side of the cage step by step.

Timothy was slightly startled, then showed a vigilant look, and took two steps back, “Who are

you? Who let you in! Where’s Roland Wimbledon? I want to see him!”

the king.

Hill had only seen Timothy from afar at the enthronement ceremony. At that time, he was wearing a crimson robe, holding a golden scepter, and wearing a bright and luxurious crown. Surrounded by the Royal Knights, he walked step by step. Climb to the dais and receive the coronation.

Hill also had expectations, hoping that he would be a good king and let everyone live a stable life, but the ensuing full-scale search tore apart the acrobatic troupe and the family, and all visions for the future turned into bubbles.

But now, he finally experienced the taste of revenge—different from the bittersweet described in the storybook, there is neither pity for the enemy nor the emptiness after success.

He only felt sweetness and joy, and his long-dried heart was moistened again… Unexpectedly, he found that he actually liked this feeling.

“I am Hill Fox, Your Majesty,” Hill bowed, “A member of the “Pigeon and Top Hat” acrobatic troupe, you may not know me, but I know you.

”

…” Timothy kept a cold face and said nothing.

But he didn’t care at all, and continued: “The acrobatic troupe originally had seven members, but because of you, we lost one partner.

From now on, the remaining six people no longer focus on performances, but hang out with the mouse and the tavern, inquire about any movement about you, and then send the news to Lord Roland after sorting out and analyzing it.

He paused, “By the way, your plan to develop snow powder and the forced recruitment of militiamen to invade the western border are all information we sent.

In addition, I also did the sudden closing and transfer of two saltpetre farms in the suburbs.

”

“What do you want to say?”

Timothy squinted his eyes, “An inside thief who is complacent about what he has done?”

A traitor who betrayed his king and sold his honor for profit?

I don’t know any pigeon hat circuses, put your tricks down, pariah!

”

” Benefits?

traitor?

No… Your Majesty, I just followed my heart,” Hill said calmly, “That partner is my wife.

She died in your witch hunt, in prison, tortured and humiliated, and her murderer’s final punishment was twenty-five silver wolves.

Timothy’s eyes flickered.

”

You remember?”

He spread his hands, “Although the city hall issued three golden dragons as compensation afterwards, what’s the use of that?”

My wife will never come back.

She was not a witch, but she died because of you.

It

took a while for the other party to say, “I didn’t do that.”

”

This kind of weak answer is as sweet as honey. If you change it to normal, you may only get a dismissive sneer and “so what”.

“At that time, it was Lanli who executed the arrest order, your confidant, even the Steel Heart Knight could do nothing about him. I just want a fair verdict, but both the trial court and the city hall have rejected my appeal, which is undoubtedly The reason why you led the operation behind the scenes—”

“No, that’s enough, untouchable!” Timothy growled, “Do you know what you’re doing? If the witch hunt just killed your wife by mistake, What you are doing is ruining the entire Graycastle! Lord Roland? You idiot, Roland Wimbledon is dead long ago! Your master is a real devil, but you decided to work for the devil because of a woman?”

” …Really?” Hill raised the corner of his mouth, “When I begged the gods but got no response, I had already made an oath—as long as I can achieve revenge, even a devil, I am willing to follow him to hell.” He stroked his chest and saluted, “Goodbye, Your Majesty. I am deeply honored to be able to add a firewood to your destruction.”

…

Walking to the entrance of the basement, Tasa nodded his chin at him, “Satisfied?”

Hill took a deep breath, “Yes, my lord, please take me to see His Majesty Roland.”

Ascending to the third floor of the palace, he finally saw the person he had worked for for the past six months—compared to Timothy, Roland Wimbledon’s expression was much more approachable. Although he had the same gray hair and gray pupils, he didn’t have the arrogance to reject others thousands of miles away.

He didn’t even… look like a royal.

“It’s really hard work for you to lurk in the capital these days.” The other party’s first sentence also surprised Hill, “Thanks to your information, I can be fully prepared. Take the capital with the least cost.”

“No, this is just what I should do—”

“Of course, I know that you are out for revenge, and Timothy will get his due sentence soon. Your purpose has been achieved, and you can start a new life in the future, but I hope that you can still continue to serve I’m working.” Roland got up and walked in front of him, looking at him, “There are still many things to do to restore the stability of the city, and even return to the prosperity of the past. The rats need to be controlled, those restless nobles Someone has to watch too, and Tassa alone can’t do it. What do you think? You and your acrobatic troupe can both get a secret and official job, protecting the people of this city for me from Similar tragedies happen again.”

“I am willing, Your Majesty,” Hill said solemnly, “Even if you don’t say that, I will follow you to the ends of the earth. You have fulfilled your previous promise, and now it is my turn.” He said word by word, “The rest of Hill Fox’s life will belong to you.”

The flower of vengeance finally bore its most delicious fruit.
