Chapter 251: Chapter 251: The Otherworldly Lord and Princess Cold Flame (Part 1)
Translator: 549690339
Upon Princess Ariel finishing speaking, the two Tier 2 Elite Soldier squads that had been standing neatly behind her quickly formed a semi-circle formation.
They pointed their gleaming weapons at Cyan Town’s officials and military officers like Rhizoma Drynariae and others.
At the same time, the aura of the Coldflame powerhouses once again soared, adopting a stance as if ready to strike.
Undoubtedly, looking at the strength on the surface.
Princess Ariel’s side, including herself, had 2 Tier 4 Powerhouses, 10 Tier 3 Powerhouses, and nearly 200 Tier 2 Elite Soldiers.
Though their side had the advantage in numbers, they only had 3 Tier 3 level
Defense Army commanders, like Rhizoma Drynariae, and the other five Royal Guard squads, which were mostly Tier 1 Ordinary Soldiers with only a few Tier 2 soldiers.
The gap between them was obvious.
If a battle broke out, the other party would undoubtedly crush them in a short amount of time.
For a while, the atmosphere on the square was filled with the aura of death.
The various formidable auras combined, like an invisible hand, strangling the necks of their own people.
Feeling the bone-chilling killing intent from the princess’s side, the unarmed officials and maids on their side were terrified, blood drained from their faces, and their bodies slightly trembling.
“How about it? If you kneel now, I, the princess, will spare your lives.” Seeing this, Princess Ariel smiled faintly, nodding in satisfaction.
Of course, having received the elite education of the Coldflame Palace since childhood, she would not simply harm these people.
She did this partly to regain face when they didn’t kneel earlier.
Secondly, it was to give Leo Ray, who had not yet shown up, a show of force.
In short, she was the genuine Princess Cold Flame; even if she angered the other party, they wouldn’t dare do anything to her. However, despite keeping a composed appearance,
Princess Ariel’s heart couldn’t help but beat faster.
After all, the soldiers of these five squads were clad in valuable Tier 3 equipment.
Besides the Coldflame Royal Family and a few aristocratic families,
Most of the ordinary Cold Flame nobles at the top of society may not have such strength.
Nevertheless, this could also indicate that these were indeed the other party’s main forces!
“I’m sorry, Your Highness, but I cannot comply.”
On the other side, facing the intense pressure from the Coldflame powerhouses, Rhizoma Drynariate remained unfazed, responding calmly.
Seeing this, Linda, who was kneeling on the ground as a neutral party following Leo Ray’s instructions, quickly spoke, “Please calm your anger, Your Highness, they are only acting on orders.”
“Acting on orders?”
Princess Ariel sneered and asked, “Whose orders? Since I’ve been here for so long, and the new city lord hasn’t even shown his face, is he afraid he has already run away?
To go against the entire Coldflame Kingdom for such a coward doesn’t seem worth it, does it?”
After speaking, Princess Ariel stretched out her slender finger, casually pointing at a young maid surrounded in the middle, and spoke condescendingly, “What do you think? Am I right?”
On the other hand, facing the Coldflame soldiers and the swords nearby,
The young and delicate maid, who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, didn’t say a word, biting her red lips tightly as her flustered eyes stared fixedly at the ground, ignoring Princess Cold Flame’s presence.
These maids of the City Lord Mansion were saved by Leo Ray from the previous city lord.
After Leo Ray took control of Cyan Town, even though he had given these tormented maids numerous gold dragons and told them they could leave this nightmare-like place,
However, after expressing their gratitude, these maids ultimately chose to stay and continue working in the City Lord Mansion.
This showed that, even though they had not signed any contracts, these young maids possessed extremely high loyalty. Even when their lives were threatened, they would not waver in the slightest.
Gazing at the silent maids in front of her, who seemed to have not heard her words, Princess Ariel couldn’t help but feel infuriated, coldly saying, “If you don’t speak up, this princess will really kill you!”
At the same time, at Princess Ariel’s gesture, a heavy sword, shimmering with strange colors, was placed against a delicate maid’s neck.
Seeing this, officials and other maids on their side all revealed a resigned expression.
No matter what, their opponent was the Fifth Princess of Coldflame, standing behind her was the peak of power and authority of this land, the aloof Coldflame Royal Family.
Even if they executed all these insignificant civilians, who would care?
“Let’s see who dares to touch my people!”
Just when everyone was in despair, a faint voice sounded.
Soon after, a tall and straight young man, surrounded by several figures, quickly approached everyone from a distance.
Without a doubt, it was Leo Ray.
Behind him, naturally, were Taylor, Gideon Black, Serena Clark, Stella Clark, Abigail, Amelia, and Scarlett.
“City Lord! It’s our City Lord!”
Upon recognizing the newcomers, not only was the near-desperate young maid relieved.
Even the surrounding officials and guards of Cyan Town showed ecstatic expressions.
For a moment, the people of Cyan Town surrounded in the middle stood taller and more confident.
They even started to confront the Tier 2 Coldflame Soldiers from the two Middle Teams.
“So, he’s the new City Lord? To think that someone so young can have such charisma.”
Clearly sensing the soaring morale of the people of Cyan Town, Princess Ariel couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows slightly.
“If that’s the case, if I can make him bow in public, then this princess can firmly establish her prestige here!”
With that thought in mind, Princess Ariel signaled the Coldflame soldiers from the two teams to withdraw their encirclement and approached Coldflame’s group of powerhouses along with her troops.
“Are you the new City Lord here? Since you knew that this princess has come as a representative of the Coldflame Royal Family, why didn’t you greet us in advance? Surely you’re not ignorant about basic etiquette?” Gazing at the composed Leo Ray from not far away, Princess Ariel frowned slightly, her tone condescending.
“I apologize, but I never had the habit of waiting for people.” Facing Ariel’s aggressive tone, Leo Ray remained as calm as ever, speaking indifferently.
Earlier, he had heard everything through Linda’s Mind Talk.
Then, his tone shifted, continuing, “Moreover, my hospitality is only for our guests. For uninvited delegations like yours, it naturally does not include you.
If you are not satisfied, you can leave immediately after apologizing to the young maid from earlier.”
Hearing this, including Princess Ariel herself, the Coldflame powerhouses and elite soldiers could not help but look at each other, unable to believe their own ears.
In the past, whenever the ordinary royal delegations visited various cities of Coldflame, when was it not met with flattery and warm welcome?
Let alone this time, it was the very Fifth Princess of the royal family who led the delegation herself.
Keep in mind that what the princess represents is the supreme authority of the entire Coldflame Royal Family!
Yet this young man in front of them dared to casually ask them to leave?
Without a doubt, this was the first time they had ever encountered someone who did not take the Coldflame Royal Family seriously!
