Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

Chapter 642 225 - Heavenly Star Warrior And The Betrayal (Part 7)



Zoemi could only blame himself for this oversight – he never inquired Alan or any other martial artist about the matter.

That whole plan about finding a dark sect and learning the big secret turned out to be a massive waste of time and lives that would not be lost if the black-haired man just did the most obvious thing.

Ask.

"William, if you will be interested in saving not only the Heavenly Star nation as it's being led into ruin by people not knowing what forces they are messing with but our whole world, I invite you to come to visit the Sea of Trees. Just entering that territory will get you a ride on a dragon all the way to the white tower where the princess awaits. Victor, you are invited too."

Zoemi breathed out heavily as the memory of mind-controlled Aaron killing his own father and childhood friend weighed on his conscience.

"You are making it sound like you will leaving... and that there is something wrong with your head. There is no white tower amidst the Sea of Trees. I had been a member of the expedition that explored most of that wild region and never encountered anything fitting the name. Not to mention dragons and..."

*WHAM* *RUMBLE*

William frowned and shook his head at the disheartened black-haired man – but his spiel about the Zoemi telling lies to get out of the troublesome situation was interrupted by a sudden landing of one of his supposed lies.

The green dragon with massive wings didn't seem to be notified about its nonexistence so it presented itself in all of its glory as the earth trembled upon the impact.

"Daddy! I'm here, you don't have to worry anymore!"

"...!"

"Ghhh...!"

The monster shielded the black-haired man and his wounded companion with its body and declared folding its massive wings and causing a gust of wind so powerful that it forced back the guardian of the Aquarius while the Heavenly Star Warrior stared at it utterly dumbfounded.

"Sweetie, get us away from here. Those people are rude, refused to offer us clothes, and two out of three of them are involved in conspiring with that piece of shit, Cherro. I've told the Heavenly Star Warrior the princess's message so take us to report to her."

Zoemi was done with his job as a messenger for the princess – he used the law of Capricorn and jumped on his dragon daughter's back before glaring at all three martial artists and informing her, not only not lowering his voice but rather speaking even louder to make sure that he will be heard.

"Eh? You don't want me to beat them up? That silver human has the aura of wind around him, and even if it's really weak, I would like to..."

"Kaaraal. Daddy is in a compromising situation right now with no clothes on while hugging his also naked friend."

The green dragon groaned in disappointment and started sulking, but Zoemi merely nudged its side with his knee and explained.

"Okay..."

*WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH*

Kaaraal didn't try to pursue the matter and the next moment she already smacked the ground with her wings, launching herself high into the sky so fast that even Miriette would be impressed.

*WHOOOOOOOOSH*

With another motion of her massive wings, the green dragon Kaaraal shot through the sky and became a small dot on the horizon only a few moments later.

"William... that could have been an illusion, or maybe the monster of Aries encountered a monster of Cancer or something, and it is their form after the transformation..."

Victor, the guardian of the Aquarius glanced over at the Heavenly Star Warrior and attempted to come up with a convincing excuse for what the two of them just witnessed, seeing the face the man was making.

"Victor, I really was a member of the expedition aiming to explore the Sea of Trees. We've met the fire dragon, the ruler of the forest... But that fire dragon despite being on par or even stronger than the void star and supernova level martial artists was much smaller and less imposing than the creature that just showed up."

"That's what I'm talking about – I and Camelia also know only about the small fire dragon! There's something wrong – maybe that creature is something that came from the land of mana together with the Aries's monster!"

The white-haired man gulped down his saliva and reveled, which caused the fox-faced man to straighten his back and start speaking very fast while being visibly relieved that the conversation was taking this particular turn.

"I see now there are a lot of things I need to discuss with the young Emperor and his advisors. Take the guardian of the Leo and go check whether the guardian of the Virgo will be able to heal her up. I'm going straight to the Star Pagoda."

William shook his head in an attempt to get rid of the shock and clear his mind before putting the unconscious woman in Victor's care.

"Yes, that will be for the best."

The fox-faced man nodded hurriedly seeing the opportunity that was jumping into his lap on its own as a chance to redeem himself and Camelia after failing to accomplish the orders given to them.

"Law of Capricorn."

Wiliam activated his star power and run up into the empty air as the law allowed him to find a stable foothold wherever he wanted.

But e didn't just run off, leaving the guardian of the Aquarius and the guardian of the Leo.

"Before I'll go... Victor, that boy you call the Aries's monster... I didn't feel any hostility toward our nation coming or our people from him. He also only responded to the attacks and didn't attack first despite having more than enough firepower to easily kill both of you."

The Heavenly Star Warrior said while looking down on the fox-faced man who tensed up once again.

"He was accused of being a member of the dark sect by the Great Ram sect and when the Heavenly Archer sect arrived at the sight to help them deal with him, he murdered over thirty people including the then sect leader and the acting magistrate of justice not to mention kidnapped the beloved child of Sagittarius. He then had a fight with the Raging Bull sect members and shamed them after easily beating them. Just recently he terrorized the newly opened Heavenly Star Academy and by taking the student's life as a bargaining chip he threatened the vice principal and the principal to reveal your location to him."

Victor hurriedly revealed, making sure to paint Zoemi in the worst light possible while also leaving a door open for pushing the blame away from the Heavenly Archer sect onto the smaller sects.

"I see. It's my mistake then."

"Pardon?"

William's expression darkened before he looked to the side and let out a bothered sight surprising Victor.

"Before I stepped down, being a member of the dark sect alone wasn't enough to sentence someone to death - there still needed to be proof of their techniques being used to harm innocents. But after the mantle of leading the army fell into the hands of the people from the Heavenly Archer sect, every dark sect member would be killed on the spot because of the decree that the previous Heavenly Emperor agreed upon."

The Heavenly Star Warrior explained without changing his expression.

"Children with too much power left unsupervised will always get themselves in trouble."

William sighed again and only then he left, rushing in the direction of the Star Pagoda - the opposite direction than the one that the Aries's monster disappeared together with his friend on the back of the green dragon.
