The Villain's Redemption

Chapter 387: The Second Prince



Chapter 387: The Second Prince

Just as she expected, the woman won.

She didn\'t just win. She actually trampled the man\'s pride by targeting his clothes, shredding them using her dagger. At the end of the round, the man was wounded and naked, unable to move or say a thing.

While this only made her worry, the fight actually hyped up the crowd. Cheers and laughter erupted, followed by some people calling out the woman\'s name.

They wanted to see blood; they wanted to see gore. They are here to enjoy themselves and the woman just gave them that. Even the King was smirking under his goatee.

The next fights were actually the same, Nesca won by embarrassing their opponents. All of them were hiding their strength.

Just what is going on here?

Sadly, she couldn\'t just leave now.

After she discovered the arrows, she also discovered the King\'s intention. The current Lycan King wanted to assassinate his own brother. The arrows pointed towards the VIP section were just distractions. The ones pointed at King Agostos were the real thing.

The Lycan King must have wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of his own brother and use his brother\'s own death for his own gains.

Sadly, Anna didn\'t have any way to tell King Agostos about this without alerting the surrounding people. Well, she could use a talisman, but that meant she would waste one of her talismans when she could just save the man from the arrows.

And so, she did the next best thing she could. Stand next to King Agostos while watching over Mo Li.

Alright, that sounded weird.

She knew that Mo Li could take care of himself. However, she still worries that his enemies might use some weird tactics to defeat him. Clearly, her original instinct was spot on.

There was something wrong with the Nescan students.

But what could it be?

The system already told her they weren\'t Lycans anymore. Was it possible that they are just like Mo Li?

Then finally, it was Mo Li\'s turn to fight.

This time, he would fight against someone from the Hunter Academy. And he defeated the man in a few moves. This qualified him for the second round of the competition, which will be held immediately.

Yes. The King didn\'t want them to take a long rest. He said it would be useless in a war. After all, you cannot just tell the demons that you are tired and you need to rest.

So, the second round is going to happen on the same day. Of course, the third and final round is different.

So the King granted everyone a night to rest to prepare for the last fight tomorrow.

In the second round, Mo Li had to fight against someone from the Nesca Academy and while they tried to use the same tactics against Mo Li, the man still struggled and ended up losing.

Among the six participants from the Nesca Academy, this was the only one who lost!

Then the grand fight that everyone had been waiting for happened.

It was between the first prince, who is a representative of the Royal Academy, and the second prince, who is representing the Hunter Academy.

While watching them fight, Anna was constantly asking the system to scan. She had a hunch that those people would choose to attack now.

This would be the perfect opportunity for the assassins to strike.

And just as she expected, the system immediately warned her that an attack was coming.

Without any hesitation, she pushed King Agostos just as the arrows were released.

"AHHHH!"

"What are— "

"Assassins!"

"Assassins!"

"Assassins!"

"Cover the King!"

"Everyone cover the King and Queens"

"Assassins!"

Chaos erupted. Thinking that the original target was King Lourens, the Alphas immediately tried to cover him, moving into a circular position that seemed to look like an umbrella. The cover was really tight, even Anna couldn\'t see an iota of weakness from it.

She squinted. "Get down! They are after you!" she whispered, hoping the chaos drowned her voice.

Anna fought the urge to get up and actually try to apprehend the killers. However, she knew she couldn\'t just blow her cover now.

First, her father might be watching somewhere. Second, the King and the other Alphas saw her push King Agostos earlier. She wouldn\'t want them to suspect her identity.

Right now, King Agostos could easily say that it was just a fluke and that she just noticed the arrow flying their way.

One after the other, the knights who were covering the Alpha King fell. Even Alpha Urchaid was hit.

It looked like they weren\'t as strong as she originally thought. Anna thought inwardly.

"Knights! Protect the King!"

Anna heard someone say. Then the system informed her that the King was no longer on the podium. He already left through the secret door behind his chair. However, the knights were still acting as if the King was still there.

After a few minutes, the arrow finally stopped.

Of course, no one was concerned about King Agostos, everyone was just asking about the king and the two princes. It looked like they didn\'t notice the fact that the first arrow was fired towards King Agostos\'s way and not towards the Lycan King.

Anna shrugged inwardly as she helped King Agostos up. Surprisingly, the man was calm. A part of Anna was thinking that it was because King Agostos was already used to assassination attempts. However, the other part of her knew it wasn\'t the case.

No.

In fact, King Agostos already saw this coming.

Tsk.

The man was hiding something from her.

"Don\'t look at me like that, young lady." King Agostos sighed. As if sensing her thoughts, he added, "We all have secrets."

"Right." Anna turned her attention to the crowd. The one crowded area was already barren. Then, her gaze landed on the participants. "Hm?"

She could smell blood, a royal blood.

Then she saw it.

The second prince… was lying on the ground, blood pooled around his body.
