Chapter 428: The Emperor’s Daughter 428

A day after the capital was blocked, Caitel’s patience fell to rock bottom. He tried to endure, but Caitel was impatient.

“No, so you really did block the border! You crazy bastard!”

Fardel, who had come to the palace, was constantly nagging Caitel, who was trying to sleep. At first, it was just his usual run-of-the-mill words, but when he didn’t respond, Ferdel would swear.

“They haven’t left Agrient yet, right?”

“I don’t know. How would I know that?”

It would take a year and a half to cross Agrigient. No matter how much human resources they collected, it would still take months. Agrigient was a vast empire with a huge geographical size.

However, Caitel had no intention of waiting that long to meet his daughter.

He didn’t know if they were still in the empire, and he didn’t want to stay in the palace waiting for her.

Eventually, Caitel came to a decision.

“Ask all the troops to spread out.”

He liked his daughter a lot when she was still a kid. When she was young, she moved around all day, and yet nobody would say anything. Caitel didn’t like that she kept trying to get out of his grasp ever since she grew up.

In the end, he missed her, for she left him.

It was driving him insane. If he could, he would turn her back into a child and make sure she stayed like that forever.

“… what?”

“Tell the whole army to move out. Except for the troops defending the capital and those stationed at the border; tell everyone to spread out.”

The Emperor’s orders were becoming absurd.

“What the hell are you planning to do?”

Caitel looked back at Ferdel. Without backing down, Ferdel asked.

“Are you waging war?”

Well…

He didn’t intend for that to happen, but he was in the mood for a battle.

First of all, his goal was to get his daughter back, and if anything stood in his way, he was ready to erase it.

“Are you out of your mind!? What is all this!? Don’t do it! If you want to fire me, then go ahead! I don’t care! What kind of crazy orders are these?”

Ferdel’s reaction was expected.

Caitel responded.

“Fine, you can follow me.”

“… huh?”

Disregarding Ferdel’s resignation, Caitel grabbed Ferdel’s neck.

Firstly, the goal was Ancief, the country closest to the capital of Agrigient.

Besides, there was only one place Ria would go to.

Caitel exhaled quickly.

Right, his daughter, hidden somewhere. This was his first time playing hide-and-seek with her, and he didn’t like this one bit; however, his anger cooled down, and his reasoning returned to some extent.

Nevertheless, once he got his hands on her, he would make it impossible for her to flee again.

He would make her regret doing such a thing.

The outrageous invasion of the Agrigient royal troops shocked the Ancief royal family and immediately called for troops to be recruited; however, Caitel had no intention of starting a war right in the beginning.

King Dion of Ancief had nothing to say about the face of the tyrant who had never stepped outside his palace except for the time Ria was born. Talks had died down, but it wasn’t easy for him to forget the bloodshed Caitel had caused on the continent.

Caitel felt refreshed after seeing King Dion doubt his eyes.

When Ferdel decided to flee, he remembered how he took Ria to avoid punishment. Ah, such times.

But that didn’t matter now.

“Excuse me, may I please know what your intentions are in my country?”

Looking at the King, who was trying to carefully choose his words, Caitel said just one thing.

“Give me my daughter.”
