Ember Skywalker

Chapter 105 The Mastermind Behind the Scenes (Part )
puff!puff!puff!
Several streams of blood spurted out, and the men holding knives suddenly covered their necks and retreated in fear, blood spurting out from between their fingers.

Soon several of them fell to the ground and died.

The bloody scene immediately frightened the refugees, and they dared not move.

Raven blew the blood off the dagger, looked around, and said grimly:

“They openly attacked the lord, according to Dante’s law, they deserve to die!

I'll give you one last chance, go away, or don't blame me for killing you."

After he finished speaking, a ball of starlight rose from his hand, and a biting cold air spread all around.

"The Burner!"

The refugees were terrified and retreated.

The Burning Law is a being that can decide their life and death at will.

The scarred man was very anxious. He didn't expect Raven to be so difficult to deal with.

“Don’t listen to him!

He is so vicious, he will definitely take revenge on us later, let's kill him now while we are all in! "

"Yes, kill him. There are so many of us, what are we afraid of?" several more refugees shouted.

"That's right, if we kill him, we'll have everything!"

……

Amid the excitement, the refugees seemed to gain courage again.

At this moment, a dark space gate suddenly appeared in front of them, and a huge stone man covered in flames crawled out of the gate.

It's hellfire.

After Hellfire came out, he roared at the refugees, and his two rock fists slammed into each other, making a loud noise.

Looking at its horrifying appearance and feeling the high temperature of the flames, the refugees lost their courage.

"Monster, run!"

"It's going to eat us!"

……

Taking advantage of the refugees' panic, Raven kicked hard and shot his body towards the crowd.

He had already remembered the few people he had instigated just now, and after swinging the dagger repeatedly, these people fell down, holding their necks.

The scarred man was also caught by him.
He didn't kill the guy because he was still useful.

"Stop right there!" Raven shouted at this time.

Hellfire also roared in response.

The refugees were immediately terrified and dared not move.

"Don't be afraid. I will only deal with this guy. The others will be exempt from punishment."

Raven exclaimed.

"Also, I have asked His Majesty for help. His Majesty will soon deliver food here, and you will no longer starve."

His purpose was not to scare these people away, but to subdue them by shocking them.

Only in this way can Lentini be ensured to be stable.

"My Lord, did His Majesty really send us food?"

"Of course, it will be here soon."

"Great! Thank you, Lord. Please forgive my previous offense." A refugee choked.

"Yes, we were wrong. We will never dare to do it again." Another person admitted his mistake.

Since they had food to eat, why were they making a fuss? So everyone repented.

“Very good, please believe me, as a lord, I will definitely let you live a happy life.

But as subjects, you also have an obligation to support your lord, right?"

"Of course."

"Now I need you to do something for me, are you willing?"

"Please tell me, sir. We will do it."

"Yes, just tell me what you want."

For the refugees, this is a great opportunity to show their loyalty, so they are naturally enthusiastic.

"Well, you guys go to the various riot spots now and tell other people that the food has arrived, and ask them to stop the rioting immediately.

Tell them that if they continue to riot, I will take care of them one by one with Hellfire, and don't blame me for being ruthless then."

This condition did not require the refugees to do anything, so they agreed and dispersed quickly.

From this moment on, they finally submitted to Riven.

Raven secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

With the spread of these refugees, I believe most of the unrest will subside.

Even if there are some who resist stubbornly, he only needs to suppress them at specific points.

After the refugees dispersed, Raven looked at the scarred man with cold eyes.

"Sir, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Please forgive me." The man was trembling like a sieve.

Raven cut his neck with a knife:
“I’m going to ask you a few questions.

If you tell me the truth, then I can consider sparing you. But if you lie, don't blame me for being rude."

"If you ask, I will tell you."

"What's your name?"

"Peter."

"Do you know Hans?"

"No... I don't know him, ah!"

Peter screamed as one of his ears was cut off.

"If you don't tell the truth, I'll take your life." Raven said viciously.

You have to be ruthless when dealing with such people, otherwise you won’t be able to get anything out of them.

"I know him. He was the one who instigated me to cause trouble this time!" Peter didn't dare to lie anymore.

"Oh? Tell me in detail then."

“Yes, yes, Hans came to me yesterday and said that he would take all the guards away today and asked me to instigate the refugees to cause trouble.

He also said that you would definitely come out to calm down, and then he would take the opportunity to kill you, and he would give me a large sum of money after the success. "

Raven's face turned cold when he heard this.

"These people are very agile and are not refugees at all. Who are they?"

Peter hesitated.

Raven slashed with his dagger, and his other ear flew off.

Peter screamed and cried, "It was Viscount Horton's men."

Horton!

Raven's face turned cold.

I had just confiscated his mine, but I didn't expect his revenge to come so soon, and so cruelly.

"Haha, what a good combination of inside and outside forces.

Hans withdrew the guards and instigated a riot. Horton sent assassins to mingle among the refugees and took the opportunity to kill me.

Then even if I die, I will die in the riot, and it has nothing to do with you, right?"

"I was wrong, sir, please forgive me!"

"One last question, where is Hans now?"

"I don't know, sir, I'm not lying, how could he tell me this." Peter was terrified.

"I believe you don't dare to lie, go away!
Tell Viscount Horton that I will remember today's grudge and I will settle the score with him in person someday."

"Thank you, sir. I will do it." Peter ran away crawling.

He originally wanted to pick up the ears, but Raven burned them clean with two fires.

Damn, you still want ears. I’m lucky I didn’t kill you.

"Raven, why did you lie to them that we had food? What if we can't provide it when the time comes?" Sean asked worriedly.

“If I don’t say so, this commotion will definitely not be quelled, and then Lentini will be finished.

And I didn’t lie to them. I will go to other places to collect food as soon as possible after the riots.”

"Won't that cost you money?" Sean was shocked.

"This... is just an initial investment."

Raven smiled bitterly. He was also helpless, unless he didn't want the territory anymore.

"But with so many mouths to feed, how much money do you have to spend? You can't feed them all every day."

"Hey, Uncle Sean, your vision is far beyond ours, just listen to me.

Doubt will only lead us to mistakes.”

Huey said with a look of reverence.

Sean looked at him in surprise.

But seeing that his emotions were sincere and unaffected, and that his deep eyes were filled with admiration, she patted him.

"Boy, you are unworthy of being a guard."

Huey straightened his chest and said, "I feel honored to be your guard."

Raven and Sean looked at each other.

"Hughie, from now on, you will be promoted to the sheriff of Lentini and assist Uncle Sean in governing the territory."

Raven said, waving his hand.

"My Lord, I still want to follow you and listen to your teachings!
Of course, your order comes first. I'll go!"

Next, the three of them rushed to other points of chaos.

Thanks to the refugees' spread of the news, the subsequent riots were significantly smaller, and the three men calmed them down one by one without much effort.

Even so they were busy until late at night.

After a hasty night's rest, he called Sean and others together the next day to discuss the next course of action.

In Raven's opinion, since this riot failed, Holden would definitely not give up.

What will most likely follow is war.
