Chapter 1053: It Is Him (Part One)
"However, nothing in this world is 100 percent. If a genius is destined to be unusual, no one can stop his rise. Just like that child… I thought that he was going to be ordinary for the rest of his life due to the brain injury, and I was prepared to guard him and make sure that he was safe and comfortable for the rest of his life in this remote kingdom. However, this little guy who had been dull for the first 18 years of his life gave me a huge surprise; it was a miracle." A satisfied and overjoyed expression finally appeared on Emperor Ya.s.sin"s face.
This expression rarely appeared on this genius emperor"s face ever since the Queen of Radiance pa.s.sed away about 20 years ago. At least Akinfeev never saw this expression on Emperor Ya.s.sin"s face.
"A huge surprise? A miracle? Your Majesty, you mean that the Third Prince suddenly recovered when he was 18 years old?" Akinfeev was also moved by Emperor Ya.s.sin"s joy, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind like a bolt of lightning. An unimaginable idea appeared in his mind, and he stuttered as a shocked expression appeared on his face, "Your Majesty… you mean… you mean… Chambord City… Could it be the King of Chambord?"
"You finally guessed it?"
Emperor Ya.s.sin stood up and laughed, "That is right. That little Alexander! He is my third son who had been missing for the last 20 years! He is the Third Prince of Zenit and Jolie"s and my child! I, Ya.s.sin, dominated the Northern Region of Azeroth in my life, and everything that I did was shocking. Haha, I never thought that this son of mine would be my biggest achievement in my life."
"It is real?" Akinfeev was so shocked that he instantly stood up. "So, Alexander is the missing Third Prince? Hahaha! He is indeed the most talented genius that people have ever seen. A 20-year-old demi-G.o.d? How many people are on this level in history? That is right. Only the Third Prince who created such a phenomenon when he was born could have such shocking talent! Haha! This is great!"
At this moment, the Execution Knight Captain, the person who many officials feared and was serious all the time, was so excited that he laughed and cried at the same time as he couldn"t put a sentence together like a little kid.
"Eh? Wait, something is off." After being excited for a while, Akinfeev suddenly thought of something and asked, "Alexander is the old King of Chambord"s son. Everyone knows this, and there are historical records that can be traced. If he is the Third Prince of Zenit, then where did the son of the old King of Chambord go?"
"Granello! You are truly arrogant! Fourth Prince His Highness has been here to take over the defense of the western gate for more than an hour, and the commanders of the eastern gate and northern gate had been here already. You are the only one who is late. Do you still have the Royal Family and the Fourth Prince in your eyes?"
The atmosphere outside the watchtower on the western gate was intense.
The middle-aged officer behind the Fourth Prince shouted at [Red Beard] Granello.
Arrogantly sitting on a big chair covered in fur outside the watchtower, the young Fourth Prince Chrystal"s handsome face looked vicious and gloomy under the illumination of the light. He looked smug as he obtained power again, and he looked down at Granello like a coyote as his white teeth were shown, making others feel cold and chilly.
Fourth Prince Chrystal didn"t say anything to the officer who scolded Granello, and he stared at Granello with his gloomy eyes. It was clear that he was waiting for Granello"s response.
However, Granello was backed by Second Prince Dominguez, so he didn"t budge.
"Who are you? How dare you shout at me?" [Red Beard] Granello was never someone who would take it and endure everything. His sharp gaze made that middle-aged officer feel nervous, and that man looked down.
[TL Note: LOL, the foreshadowing had been too strong. I mean, how many of you are surprised?]

Chapter 1053: It Is Him (Part Two)
Seeing this, Granello snorted and said, "I"m the No.1 Commander of Imperial Patrol, and I"m in charge of the defense of the southern gate. I"m also a level 2 n.o.ble of Zenit. Who are you? You are only a little officer; how dare you shout at me with someone behind you? You are technically offending a superior; you know what crime this is, right?"
"I… this…" The middle-aged officer was nervous, and he sweated while he stuttered; he didn"t know what to say.
Seeing Granello being so dominating, the others in the area were shocked, and their faces changed expressions.
"General Granello, such an overbearing aura." Fourth Prince Chrystal slowly stood up as cold glints flashed in his eyes. Under the light of the flames that were flickering on torches, he looked like a demon beast who was about to eat someone.
Granello wasn"t afraid, and he took a step forward and sneered, "I"m not as overbearing as Your Highness. Right now, Barcelonans are right outside the defense wall. The situation is urgent, and everyone is ready for battle. No one takes off their armor when resting, and all soldiers are stationed around the defense wall. Fourth Prince, you just took over the defense of the western gate. Instead of being diligent and shouldering pressure for His Majesty, you are being all arrogant and forcefully summoned the other three commanders who are guarding the other three city gates to see you. Humph! No one is a prince on the battlefield. The four commanders of the four gates should be on the same level. Just the fact that you summoned the other commanders for no reason already violated the military law. If the Barcelonans attack now, the soldiers at other gates don"t have commanders to direct them. If something goes wrong, can Your Highness bear the full responsibility?"
"You…" Fourth Prince Chrystal"s expression changed, and he was so angry that he pointed at Granello and didn"t know what to say for a while. A moment later, he squeezed out a few words between his teeth, "You… you are reckless. How dare you to be disrespectful to me? You… guards! Arrest this arrogant rebel who is disrespectful towards the Royal Family!"
Tink! Tink! Tink!
A series of metal-grinding noises sounded, and hundreds of elite soldiers swarmed out and surrounded Granello and others with weapons drawn.
"It seems like I overestimated you, a wastrel." Granello wasn"t afraid, and he shook his head in disappointment. "I really don"t know why His Majesty allowed you to take over the defense of the western gate. If St. Petersburg is going to be conquered, it will start from here. By then, you will be the guiltiest person in Zenit."
After saying that, Granello turned around and ignored the hundreds of elite soldiers.
However, bowstring-tightening noises sounded at this moment. Like the cold laughter of the Grim Reaper, the temperature in the area even dropped by several degrees.
Granello wasn"t sure when, but the powerful magic crossbows that were stationed on the defense wall were moved over, and they were aiming at Granello and his men. The cold reflections on the heads of the arrows made others feel cold.
These strong magic crossbows were made by Chambord, and they were insanely lethal. When firing at such close range, even Moon-Cla.s.s Elites would be severely injured, let alone Granello who was only a Star-Level Warrior.
The situation suddenly took a drastic turn.
This was clearly a prearranged trap.
"What? Continue being arrogant! Do you think that you are with Dominguez, the Love Child, so you can disrespect me?" Fourth Prince Chrystal sneered and said with a joyous expression as he had everything in control, "Even if I issue the command and kill you right now, Dominguez can do nothing about it."
