Salute To The General

Chapter 3080



Lux uttered coldly, "You're too full of yourself."

Max grinned. "I know all of you don't like me and can't stand the sight of me, but no matter how discontented you are, it won't change the fact that I'm the fourteenth vampire prince. The thing I enjoy the most is taking in your exasperated demeanors for not being able to eliminate me despite how much you loathe me.”

Lux and the others exploded with rage.

Max added calmly, "I heard the recent news about Nathan killing Kaiden, the Alpha Wolf's son. I'm going to meet with Raytor, the leader of the werewolves, to try and collaborate with them."

Lux replied disdainfully, "You are indeed a b*stard. I can't believe you're planning to interact with those inferior and filthy weredogs. We despise you." Unfazed, Max turned around and left. "That's right. Why am I telling this to all of you? You're just a bunch of pretentious vampires who act all high and mighty but are actually incompetent."

With that, he strode away, leaving Lux and the other princes to gnash their teeth in vexation.

Inside the Cross residence in Channing, the South of Eurasia, Queenie had a troubled expression on her face.

At that moment, she could not resist asking Nathan the question that had been bothering her for days. "Papa, I haven't gone to school in two days. I want to study and meet with my classmates so badly. When can I go out? When can I go back to school?"

As it turned out, since the Curia announced her as the future Holy Maiden, she had been consecutively assaulted by elites of the dark clans.

Fortunately, aside from the first attack by Kaiden that had caused a certain degree of threat, the remaining attempts by the other dark clans were easily neutralized by Sevan, who was tasked to protect Queenie.

Naturally, because of the recent successive attacks targeted at Queenie, Nathan feared something terrible might happen to his daughter. At the same time, he was also worried about putting the other children's lives at risk if she were to go to school.

Therefore, in the past two days, he had requested his daughter to stay at home and not go to school for the time being. He even told her not to leave the house.

As a result, Queenie was bored out of her wits.

On that day, she could not stand the boredom anymore, so she went to the study room to ask her father when she could go back to school.

Patting her head, Nathan comforted her. "Stay home for a few more days. Just wait till next Monday. After I deal with all the troubles, you'll be able to continue studying at school, okay?"

The sensible girl nodded obediently. "Okay!"Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

He flashed her a soft smile and said, "All right. Go and play some board games with your Aunt Kylie."

"Okay!"

After Queenie left the room, Colin, standing at one side, closed the door.

As soon as the door was shut, the smile on Nathan's face was replaced by a scowl.

Colin cautiously said, "Mr. Cross, the Curia is giving us the cold treatment. They haven't responded to your demands nor made any announcement on the reselection of the next Holy Maiden."

Nathan uttered in a steely voice, "The cold treatment? That means they are ignoring my demands and paying no heed to me."

Colin dared not say a word in response.

Nathan stood up and spoke while wearing a poker face. "They have stubbornly announced my daughter as the future Holy Maiden and

disrupted her whole life. She may

face danger at all times now andmet

can't even attend school to study like other ordinary children. How dare the Curia seek to change my daughter's life for their personal gain, rendering it impossible for her to live like a normal person for the rest of her life? I will never agree to this."

Colin stayed quiet, but he could understand Nathan's sentiment.

Soldiers like them, who had spent much time risking their lives on the battlefields, had witnessed too much brutality. They had seen too many of their comrades dying on the battlegrounds. Plenty of veterans even had post-traumatic stress disorder after surviving wars.

People like them had dedicated their entire lives to their nation, and it was difficult for them to lead a normal life again, but they hoped their children could live peaceful life like ordinary people.

The Curia had crossed the line and completely angered Nathan.

At that moment, Nathan gazed at the sky outside the window and said impassively. "The deadline of the ultimatum issued to Pope Eugene has passed. Since he's unwilling to amend his decision, I'll have to visit him to get him to change his tune. Get the private jet ready. I'm going to the Curia in person."

Colin replied, "Yes, Mr. Cross."
