The guard bowed over and over again. "It's our fault for not protecting him. Please forgive us."
Crap!
Lord Kenny's body shook—anxiety and franticness were heavy in his expression. He turned around and shouted, "Quickly, gather the army. We return to the New World royal city at once."
Skylar was important to him because he had promised to recommend Lord Kenny to Archfiend Antigonus. He could not let anything happen to him.
The guard called out in response as they ran out.
Lord Kenny sat down heavily, a frown creasing his brows. He could not help the sigh that escaped him. So what if he had taken the North Moana royal city? Without Skylar, there was no way he would take over the Nine Mainland.
Just as Lord Kenny was at his wit's end, a hole broke through the palace roof. It was followed by a charming figure who slipped through it and charged forward with speed as quick as lightning!
It was Yvette!
Yvette had held back her vengeance against Lord Kenny that whole time. When she learned that Kendall had seized Skylar, Yvette could no longer hold back!
Yvette channeled her fiend soul energy, filling the entire palace with it instantly.
"You… you haven't left?!"
As he sensed the aura behind him, Lord Kenny's heart pounded with fear. He jumped up to see who it was, and the sight of Yvette left him fearful and angry.
"Lord Kenny!" Yvette's face was the picture of fury and hatred. "It's time for you to pay for killing my father. I'll tell you this much as well while I'm at it—it was me who wrote to the Hidden Hero Sect. I didn't think you'd find out."
"But that doesn't matter anymore, not right now. Skylar has run into trouble, and I don't have to worry about him finding out that I killed you."
As she spoke, Yvette channeled all the energy in her body and attacked.
F*ck!
