Chapter 73 Tremble



Yvette appears elegant with her long-sleeve green brocade dress with delicate patterns of butterflies embroidered on it.

However, Vincent can easily tell from her emerald eyes that she has a lot of things in her mind right now.

\'Did I come at the wrong time?\' Vincent thought as he greeted the young lady.

"Miss Yvette, it\'s been a while."

"Yes… Come here, I was about to get some tea. Join me."

Yvette said as she invited her to the pavilion connected to the villa. Vincent followed her as he confirmed that there are indeed no more signs of battle in this place.

After a while, the servants brought a set of sea and snacks for them.

"My father should be returning in a few minutes. He really wanted to meet you." Yvette said as she tried to appear like she was in a good mood.

"Oh? I hope you didn\'t give me too much praise. He might be disappointed once he sees me." Vincent said jokingly.

"Haha~ Don\'t worry, I just told him the truth. He won\'t be disappointed."

"I see. Your father must be very busy, have there been any problems in the county? What happened to the Austere Blades?" Vincent asked curiously. Although he didn\'t really want to get involved with their matters, he already killed a few members of that mercenary group so he wanted to know if they have been dealt with already.

The Austere Blades was the group that wanted to kill Yvette and although she didn\'t mention how many members they have, Vincent was able to tell that there weren\'t just 10 or 15 of them considering they are tasked to protect a few places at the edge of the Count\'s territory.

More than that, they were able to receive plenty of funds for the past few years so they have definitely recruited a lot of members. Furthermore, they won\'t be thinking of going against the Count if they aren\'t prepared at all.

It\'s even possible that they are also being backed by another organization.

Then, Yvette confirmed his suspicion.

"Unfortunately, we weren\'t able to completely eliminate them. Well, at the very least, we have discovered that they are being supported by the Rebel Army. This is why father was getting busy."

She sighed after telling this. Even her favorite tea couldn\'t lift her mood.

"The Rebel Army? I\'ve heard of them before… Are they that strong that the Royal Family was unable to eliminate them? They were even able to support the mercenary group you\'ve hired…"

Vincent asked as he finally understood why they dared to target the Count\'s daughter.

"That\'s right…"

Yvette helplessly smiled at this as she started to explain the situation of the kingdom. Since she knows that Vincent grew up in a small village, she already expected that he\'s unaware of the political situation of the kingdom.

Apparently, the Tudor Kingdom is in turmoil.

The previous King died early and the one who replaced him was only a twelve-year-old kid who had barely received an education. To make it worse, the kid doesn\'t have talent in practicing mana.

This didn\'t bid well as the previous King\'s younger brother, Grand Knight France, together with his supporters decided to kill the young king and take his throne.

Luckily, the Kingdom\'s Royal Teacher and Grand Magus together with their loyal Celestial Beings stopped France from his plans.

Although they weren\'t eliminated because of their strong army, they were still forced out of the capital and turned into a Rebel Army.

\'This isn\'t just a turmoil… This is civil war!\' Vincent thought as soon as he heard about the current situation of the kingdom.

He didn\'t expect that this kingdom has a lot of problems right now.

He then learned that Troy Clan is actually one of the supporters of Grand Knight France while Lucius Clan is still supporting the current King.

\'It\'s the Lucius Clan that has gone too far and destroyed my village. Ugh…\'

Vincent couldn\'t help but recall what happened to his village.

"It seems you\'re interested in the Lucius Clan… Your face turned really serious there… Did something happen?" Yvette said as she looked at Vincent curiously.

"Well, I just had an encounter with them."

"I see… Then why don\'t you ask your Manager? Hmm… Is her name Therese? She was part of the Lucius Clan, I remember it correctly."

Vincent froze after hearing this revelation.

"I didn\'t know that… And why \'was\'? Is she no longer part of the clan?"

"That\'s right. I don\'t know the authenticity of this story but I heard from my father that she left the clan after her little brother was hunted by one of the members of the Troy Clan and the Clan Head did nothing about it."

Vincent couldn\'t help but be stunned after hearing this.

\'What a coincidence…\'

Vincent thought as he took a sip of his bittersweet tea.

Anyway, Vincent continued asking about the situation of the Kingdom and he even learned that the Zemin Clan was actually in a dangerous position because of their massive wealth and hundreds of Tier 1 Alchemists and a Tier 2 Alchemist.

Vincent wanted to ask more about this but he suddenly heard someone coming as the maids and servants made some noises.

He immediately turned his gaze to the direction of the noise and found the imposing figure of the Count Miller Marshall.

Vincent could easily recognize that he is the count after seeing his emerald eyes and the way he dressed.

Well, his appearance was standard of someone from the upper class. He has shiny slick hair, a wispy mustache, and is dressed in a tidy, extravagant suit. Perhaps, if he added a rimless monocle, it would be perfect for Vincent.

"Father… You\'re back." Yvette greeted the middle-aged nobleman who just arrived at the pavilion.

"Hmm… It was quite difficult dealing with the bandits these days. Is this your friend?"

"Yes. Vincent, this is my father."

Vincent immediately stood as he greeted the Count.

Count Miller wanted to thank Vincent again for saving his daughter\'s life, however, the ground suddenly trembled as they felt a powerful fluctuation of mana below them!
