Chapter 311 – [Bonus Chapter]There Will Be No Next Time!

=====

"So, i want to change the reward, i want to be a noble to hide the truth!" William blinked and stared at the man for so long as if he had lost his voice but then he laughed. He held his stomach and laughed hard as if he had gone crazy but in the next second his face turned so cold and eerie as if he was a demon coming from the pit of hell.

"You know there is a limit to being delusional! If you continue to spout nonsense that I have to send you to the physician for losing your sensibility!" Suddenly he stopped laughing and stared hard into the eye of the man with frozen eyes and cold face.

"Who do you think you are and how could you even dream of being a noble? 

Even if I had magic I could not and would not change a man like you to a noble.

And as far as buying properties and settling down, I have already told you that I would arrange a ship for you that will take you to the other part of the continent and you can start a new life there.

You are already dead here and if you continued to spout nonsense like that then it would only take me minutes to make you dead in reality.

Since the world thinks that I was responsible for your death, why shall I hesitate so much in making it reality? This time the man was not giving a false threat and the old man could feel it even in his bones.

He was shivering with fear looking at the cold eyes of the duke whose hands had already reached for his dagger this time. But when the man took the dagger out, it did not have the symbol of Thawyne family. 

It meant even if he would kill him from that dagger, no one would know that it was his doing.

They were in the deepest part of the woods. He was sure that even his corpse would not be found!

It would only turn into manure after lying down here for weeks! 

His throat ran dry and he felt his whole body shivering with fear but he would not let it show.

Thanks to the darkness and his cloak, the duke would not be able to sense his fear.

"Wait! Haven't I told you that if you would kill me everyone would know the truth?" He mustered all his courage and spoke in a cold voice but that only brought a mocking laugh on the face of the duke!

"And who would do that? Your soul?" he took out the dagger and swirled it in his hands. 

"Ha! Do you think that I am a fool who invited you here without any preparations? 

I have already planted a lot of people around Evangeline and your family and even the royal family by the money you have given me last time.

If you kill me, they would pass the letters written by me to everyone! 

Even if others did not take it seriously, Evan knew my handwriting and she would believe them.

Are you ready for that risk!?" The dagger pierced the skin of the duke whose hands froze in the air but soon he recovered from the shock and looked back at the man.

"Are you trying to threaten me? Huh?" His hands reached for the neck of the old man but his grip was not tight as if he was only trying to scare the man but did not intend to kill him anymore.

"No, your grace, I am telling you facts. I write a letter to all of them in a week. If they would not receive a letter for two consecutive weeks then they would circulate the letters and then everyone would know that you have killed me and the reason behind too.

Not only would they hate you but also criticize the late duchess who had taken this decision!"  That was the only thing he was worried about! 

If it would have been him, he would have accepted it! His hands clenched on the dagger so tight that his knuckles turned white yet he did not speak a word.

Taking his silence as his defeat, the old man gloated. He knew that the late duchess was the only weakness the duke had!

"Think about it again, his highness, I am not asking for much. Just the status of a baron would do that also in a far away town. 

As long as I can have my own palace and free luxurious life where I will be their god would be enough!" he repeated in a soft voice this time as if he was asking for a measly amount.

William wanted to kill the man and there, but he took a deep breath and sighed,

"I am only a duke not the emperor, even emperors need a proper reason for a commoner to bestow with a title of nobles.

Give me some time, I have to think about it!" the old man frowned as if he was disappointed with the duke. But even he had the idea that the task was cumbersome.

At least the lord had not denied straight away. As long as he would find the way, the reply would be worth it.

With that thought, he rubbed his chin and nodded his head.

"Then I would wait for your news. And I do not live at my old address so do not try to contact me. 

I will be the one to come to you after a week. Thank you for your time, my lord. Looks like your knights are too stubborn. He had still found you! 

Now I have to go!" 

'I promise there will be no next time!'
