Chapter 193: | don’t have to prove myself.
The air tingled with nerves on the edge and tension as speople stepped up one by one, taking an oath on
the staff. Alistair had been the first to go, he had taken the oath with a smile on his face. If the short mage was
asked to die for Sigrid, he would take the sword personally and plunge it into his own heart.
Only three people did not take the oath in the end, Brent, Taylor and Rudkip.
"What? Are you three scared?" She asked in voice that held the slightest whiff of mockery.
Brent was standing in the middle, he stepped forward to speak on behalf of his friends. "We are former knights
that have faced death on a battlefield, swearing an oath of loyalty on your golden staff is not what scares us. We
just don’t know if you are worthy to be our leader. When you calong, this organization had already been
formed.
We have been doing a great job of running things without getting caught. You took over forcefully and involved
us in struggles that are none of our business."
Sigrid leaned forward, she raised her hand to stop Brolin whose sword was in the midst of being unsheathed.
"And what is your business?" she asked curiously.
Brent looked at his friends on by one before turning to MadFrancis. "We sell wine."
Sigrid snorted. "Wine!!"
Taylor nodded, "Yes, we sell wine just as your Thorin family stocks a lot of it. Wine and cheese | believe is what is
kept in your cellars and attic. Oh...and coffee....you have the most beautiful glittering coffee | have ever seen."
He was hinting at her that he knew about the gold.
"Oh." Sigrid responded lazily.
The three men shared puzzled looks, they expected her to crack because they were aware of her secret.
"The prminister...." Brent started.
Sigrid threw a short blade out before Brent could finish making his threat. The blade was faster than the retired
knight, a magical force accompanied it. It landed in Brent's stomach.
Amazingly, not a single person in the room gasped or expressed surprised. The only one that was in shock was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBrent.
Sigrid was not finished, she moved her hand around, using magic to twist the blade. Brent cried out and fell to
his knees.
"Stop it." Taylor called out to her.
Rudkip was trying to retrieve the blade but he could not pull it out no matter how hard her tried.
Sigrid shook her head, the corners of her lips moved up to form a cruel smile. "You three do not understand what
a hostile take over means. | find it funny that you wantto prove myself as if | have to audition for you. I will
admit that your talents are useful but to me, they are dispensable."
She pushed her hand forward and the blade sunk deeper into Brent's abdomen. Blood spilled over his hands and
those of Rudkip, it dripped to the ground and the knight grew afraid.
Brent had assumed that the crown princess was like other nobles, desperate to keep her secret that she would
hand over the organization obediently and return to her castle.
He did not think that she would be so bold to kill him in front of all these witnesses.
"Francis, you whore..." he croaked out.
MadFrancis was already Sigrid’s loyal follower, she did not even bat an eye when she was called a whore
and she did not respond.
Taylor fell to his knees and begged, "Please, don’t kill him. We will do anything, we will serve you loyally."
"Don’t beg her." Brent said. He coughed three times, blood accompanied the cough. "A man’s knees should not
kneel before the enemy."
"Enemy." Sigrid tilted her head and laughed. "I had no idea that | was the enemy."
[Host, the system has detected that these three nights detest all nobles. Even if you keep them, there is a big
possibility that they will turn on you. The possibility of them hindering your mission is sixty percent. Keep in mind
that they know about your gold.]
"Did they serve Emmah?"
[Confirmed and according to system calculations, if she meets them, the possibility of the four coming together
is high.]
She scoffed. She guessed that this was because Emmah preached her equality hypocrite lies and these men that
hated nobles believe in her. Emmah was still trying to preach the equality gospel, Sigrid had fired two maids
from the Vale that had bought into it.
It seemed she was not meant to conquer these three men.
She looked down at Taylor thoughtfully, "Hmm, you were caught trespassing in my castle by my husband's
knights. They arrested you, gave you a beating and had you arrested. | am surprised to see you out of prison so
soon. Weren't you supposed to be locked up for a year at least."
"Brent bribed the prison guards." MadFrancis shared.
Sigrid nodded. "| see."
"System what is their loyalty to me?"
[Zero for all, your patience and kindness has not paid off.]
She pulled her hand back, retrieving
the blade. It seemed as if she had,

All the blood and the sudden death made speople in the room squirm. MadFrancis however smiled, she
had been under the thumb of those men for too long.
Brent had used her body as he pleased on occasion because he knew her secrets. It was not just the nobles that
were blackmailed by the three knights.
"Does anybody have anything to say?" Sigrid the rest of the group.
Murmurs of no echoed in the room, nobody wanted to end up in the situation as the dead men. They were glad
that they had taken that oath of loyalty.

The instructions were not just for Alistair, they were for every member of the organization that stayed in this
house which was next to the brewery.
"Purchase the brewery when the investigation into their death is over." She looked at Alistair and waved her
hand. "Get rid of the bodies for now and clean up the blood before we continue."
