1187 Need to Take Action
Paramel knew without thinking that even if the royal family of the empire did not officially pressure him and the higher-ups of the empire did not give him any pressure on the surface, the families of these dead princes and princesses, the clans they represented, and the factions related to them would definitely press these questions on him.
They would definitely think that these descendants of the royal family would die because he, Paramel, did not protect them well and was the cause of their deaths!
In fact, Paramel was certain that someone would definitely take this opportunity to cause trouble and show that he had done something to it, causing such a bad situation to happen in the end.
Thinking of this, Paramel could not help but turn to look at Prince Lekas beside him.
!!Unlike the extremely gloomy expression caused by Paramel’s extreme anger, the expression on Prince Lekas’s face was very relaxed. He even had a faint smile.
Ever since the news of the death of the first member of the royal family three days ago, Prince Lekas’s reaction surprised everyone.
He really did not seem to mind the deaths of these young people who were also from the royal family. He even seemed to be very happy to see such a scene. Not only did he not have any special reaction to this, he even stopped Paramel’s suggestion to immediately interfere.
If not for the fact that he had been blocking here, the number of dead royal descendants would not have reached 23 at all, and the situation would not have become so bad.
Paramel could not understand what Prince Lekas was thinking.
The people who died were all true descendants of the royal family and were of the same race as Prince Lekas. Moreover, any member of the royal family who could partic.i.p.ate in the Garden Hunting a.s.sembly was a young genius of the royal family. The death of any one of them could be considered a huge loss to the royal family.
However, now that 23 had died in a row, this was already a very huge loss to the royal family of the empire. Prince Lekas still looked indifferent.
Paramel had never thought that Prince Lekas’s words of “let these descendants of the royal family experience true cruel compet.i.tion and trials” were true. Even if he indeed hoped that these descendants of the royal family needed some tests, as a senior of the same group, he should not joke about their lives, right?
Paramel’s eyelids twitched. In the end, he could not help but turn to Prince Lekas and say in a low voice, “Your Highness, I think we have to take action immediately. If this continues, the casualties of these royal descendants will only become worse and worse, and the damage to the empire will also become worse.”
“Damage to the empire?” Prince Lekas revealed a mocking smile, “Because the empire has not held the Garden Hunting a.s.sembly for decades, these fools treat this thing as an ordinary game. They even dare to send such trash over, so they deserve to die. This is also good. If some trash die, they can reflect on what they’ve done all these years and let them understand that the honor of the royal family is not a toy that they can easily obtain.”
Paramel cursed in his mind.
‘You royals can play however you want. That’s your business, but now that this matter has dragged me into the water, it won’t be fun.’
Of course, he could not say that on the surface. He frowned and thought for a moment. He gritted his teeth and said seriously, “However, Your Highness, the current situation has clearly become abnormal. According to the information we have, I’m already certain that there are external forces interfering and influencing this Garden Hunting a.s.sembly. Some people simply came with a special goal. It’s very likely that their goal is to deliberately target the empire! Under such circ.u.mstances, if we still stand by and watch, it’s simply irresponsible to those descendants of the royal family!”
“Oh? What evidence do you have?” Prince Lekas turned around and asked in confusion.
“Your Highness, you went to the endless abyss some time ago and were not here, so I’m afraid you don’t know some of the situations that well. Look”
Paramel opened the personal terminal on his wrist and some information appeared on the small virtual screen. He turned it to Prince Lekas.
Prince Lekas glanced at it and his eyes immediately focused.
After he seriously read this information, his expression quickly became serious.
“So these things happened. Why didn’t you report it to me previously?”
Paramel smiled bitterly in his mind, thinking to himself that such a thing was the responsibility of these officials of the empire who were in charge of the organization. Prince Lekas had a high status, so no matter how responsible he was, no one dared to criticize him, but Paramel was definitely unable to escape.
When there was no need, he would naturally choose to suppress the matter. As long as the first stage successfully ended, he could submit these problems again and hand them to the masters of the royal family to worry about. Even if he was responsible, it was much better than now.
However, he had never expected that things would develop to this extent in a short few days. If he still did not do anything to remedy it, he would probably not only face criticism.
Of course, Prince Lekas was not a fool. He knew very well why Paramel did this, so he did not ask further after berating him. Instead, he turned to look at the huge virtual screen and his gaze swept past the blood-red names. His thick eyebrows gradually frowned.
“Inform Supremacy Yamucha and the others to work harder in the next few days. If they sense any descendants of the royal family using Spatial Extermination, they don’t have to wait in the alternate s.p.a.ce. They can directly appear and take them away.”
Hearing Prince Lekas’s instructions, Paramel was stunned.
“That’s not good, right? The reason why those partic.i.p.ants from other countries have such a serious conflict with the descendants of the royal family is that they feel that it’s unfair. They only guessed that we prepared a Star-Grade Martial Artist to receive them previously, and no one has seen it with their own eyes. However, isn’t letting Supremacy Yamucha and the others appear directly confirming their guess?”
“When does our Declan Empire need to worry about their thoughts when doing things?” Prince Lekas sneered, but he still added, “After this, I’ll get the empire’s media to announce to the public that the descendants of the royal family who used Spatial Extermination have already lost their qualifications. These guys have nothing to say even if they want to protest.”
“Then Alright.” Paramel thought for a moment and could only accept.
No matter what, Prince Lekas’s att.i.tude finally softened. He was willing to let the three Star-Grade Martial Artists provide further protection to those descendants of the royal family.
As long as these descendants of the royal family did not continue to die, anything was fine.
Most importantly, since Prince Lekas was willing to take on this matter, even if the other royal families had any objections, the pressure on Paramel would be much lower.
“However there’s another problem. If any member of the royal family is surrounded and something happens before he can use Spatial Extermination”
“So be it if such trash dies.”
Prince Lekas’s cold words instantly shut Paramel up.
