The Great Demon King
Chapter 153 "Identities to look out for"



When Lawrence spoke so, his facial expression was very strange. It was a little manic that looked anxious seeing the world fall into chaos.


“Bryan, I'll stay in Valen City for now. You can come find me at the house where we delivered Lisa. Where can I find you if I need to? ”Lawrence was in a good mood when he turned to look at Han Shuo.


Han Shuo paused for a moment and then told Lawrence the address of Emily's hotel, leaving quickly afterward and not noticing anything that happened afterwards.


The hotel Emily was staying at was not one of Dark Mantle's fortresses, so Han Shuo was not afraid Lawrence would find his way there. As Han Shuo walked back to the Dark Mantle headquarters, the metallic horse hooves meandered nonstop on the road leading to Calvert's house. It seemed like Clark's death did indeed have a huge impact on the entirety of Valen City.


Han Shuo did not linger here at the moment and did not care to find out whether Lucky managed to eliminate Calvert or not. He covered his tracks as he quickly headed towards the Dark Mantle fortress.


He easily finds Emily after reaching the fortress. When he saw her, he waved his hand and dispersed Chester. Her pretty face looked gloomy as she said to Han Shuo, “I know Lawrence's identity.”


He is a senior executive of Dark Mantle. Han Shuo looked at Emily happily and said enthusiastically, “Excellent, who is that guy? The status seems pretty high! ”


“You! You are better off thinking about your tone and language when you interact with it in the future. This person could have a drastic impact on you. “Emily glared at Han Shuo and then whispered a spell. The boundary formed within the room and included Han Shuo and Emily inside.


“The members outside will not hear my words when this limit applies,” Emily said seriously.


Han Shou was quite surprised to see Emily take such precautions. He asked with a little anxiety, “Alright, stop playing with him, who is Lawrence?”


Taking a deep breath, Emily sighed lightly and said, “She should be the third prince.”


Starting with fear, Han Shuo looked at Emily with a hint of doubt. “You're kidding! The king had only two sons. Every citizen of the Lancelot Empire knows this. How could there be a third prince? Moreover, everyone knew that Lawrence was clearly the son of the finance minister, how could he possibly be the third prince ?! ”


“I mean it.” Emily reached out to pinch Han Shuo when she saw that she did not believe him. He explained, “This is actually one of the royal family scandals. The finance minister, Eevee, has some problems in that area, and can only see his beautiful wife, Alice. Eevee's relationship with the king was quite good, and the king met Alice at one of Eevee's private banquets. The king is conquered by Alice's beautiful appearance, and the two eventually walk together because Eevee functions inadequate other than the king making a purposeful move. ”


“Eevee detected this because Alice was pregnant. The king himself then appeared and explained the matter to Eevee. Because the deed had been done, and the king in the end remained king, and Eevee knew that he could not say anything to Alice and thus secretly accepted this. ”


“Because the impact of this problem will be too severe, both sides have been hiding it until now. Those who actually held power in the capital had some sort of understanding towards the matter, but no one dared to openly talk about it that Lawrence was the king's son and Alice. Lawrence has been brought up in the care of his ambitious mother since birth, teaching him the principles of governing and the knowledge he must know while controlling an empire. ”


“Lawrence knows his status since young, but his potential is incredible and he has unusual social generosity, so he has a good relationship with his adoptive father. Too bad because of his illegitimate status, he could not enter the royal family. The king also felt quite guilty about this and thus treated Lawrence very well. He often met with Lawrence in person to express his affection, and it was rumored that the king was also very satisfied with Lawrence. ”


“From the other two princes, one of them is a hard and common material, the other is very cunning, but plin plan in making decisions. It seemed that none of them were ruler materials. As the king's health began to decline, he also probably felt that he didn't have much time left and thus walked closer to Lawrence lately. It is said that the king had a desire to reveal Lawrence's identity and make him inherit the throne. ”


“However, the mother of the other two princes had great power within the Empire. If the king acted rashly, he would lose control of the situation and therefore have not made a move. As the king became weaker and weaker, a storm began to appear within the Empire. Candide the old fox did not want you to get too close to Lawrence, probably because she was also worried that Lawrence's identity would affect your future path. ”


Emily understood that her words had a huge impact on Han Shuo when she saw him catch his breath, his eyes kept dancing. When he saw that he was immersed in deep thought, he did not bother him and just stood there, looking at him, waiting for Han Shuo to sort out his thoughts.


After a while, Han Shuo nodded and said with a smile to Emily, “Alright, I understand the details of this matter now. Don't worry, I know how to handle my relationship with Lawrence. ”


“Our Dark Mantel never intervenes in complicated situations of power struggles within the royal family, and only receives orders from the king. We usually do not get involved before the situation is sorted out and the king has given a definite order. The fact that the old fox will give you subtle clues after your first mission means that he really appreciates you. ”


“He also means the best to you. The more you know about this matter, the more unfavorable it is for you. I understand You well and know Your strength and ambition. This is why I'm telling you a very secret thing. As for how to understand the situation, I leave that to you. ”Emily looked at Han Shuo as she continued to explain.


“I know you mean well. Heh heh, I know how to. Oh, I forgot to tell you. I killed Clark. The city of Valen should be in chaos by now. ”Han Shuo smiled faintly at Emily.


Now it was Emily's turn to write on her face after she heard these words. He looked at Han Shuo doubtfully, asking in great surprise, “What, what are you saying? You said you killed Clark? ”


Nodding, Han Shuo said firmly, “Yes, I killed Clark, but someone helped Me with that and I just did it through an ambush. Don't be too surprised. ”


Panting, Emily was still quite surprised. He shook his head and said, “We have investigated Clark's strength and he is a solid earth rider. He reached this level at a very young age. His potential is incredible, and to think that he will die easily after being ambushed by you. Looks like you kept some things from me. ”


“No, I really don't hide anything from you. It's just that an Archmage necromancer showed up halfway, and a colleague I helped us with Clark. We have received great help from his strength, otherwise we will never succeed, “Han Shuo smiled wryly and quickly summarized what had happened.


Emily's expression grew grim after she finished listening to Han Shuo. He muttered, “Nejum experts are already quite rare, Archmage necromancers are like phoenix feathers or dragon scales. I wonder which faction this necromancer belongs to? ”


“I want you to investigate that,” Han Shuo smiled.


“Come and travel with me, we need to find something.” Emily pondered for a while and then wrapped herself in fur nearby.


“What do we do?” Han Shuo walked over to Emily and gently adjusted the corner of her clothes.


Smiling embarrassedly at Han Shuo, Emily chuckled like a little girl who was planning to play a joke. “Clark has just died, so the entire city of Valen must be in an uproar right now. The Gryphon Legion must be in a panic right now and searching the entire city for the two of you. All we need to do is stir the muddy mud and make things even more confusing. ”


“Heh heh, that's amazing. I found out that I like to do bad things. Maybe I was a killer or an arsonist in my past life. ”Han Shuo smiled faintly.


“You are also a villain in this life,” Emily rolled her eyes at Han Shuo, lowered the boundary and walked out together."
