Chapter 159: Chapter 159: The Last True Emperor



"Before you ask what I need, don\'t you want to know the second reason for you to not kill me?"

The nameless man did not answer her. The corner of his lips crept up as he asked a question of his own.

The Empress\' frown deepened.

"Tell me."

"It\'s because I can help you find the person who killed your brother," the nameless man answered. "Hence, if you get my help, you can fulfill the two deepest desires in your heart."

"You can break the curse that had been keeping the Dragons restricted, and you can have your revenge on the person who killed your brother," he further stated, his words sounding like alluring words coming from a demon\'s mouth.

Even he knew that the Sea Dragon Empress could not ignore his words.

"What do you want from me?" The Sea Dragon Empress repeated her main question now that she knew how he could help her.

She didn\'t know if it was true or not, but she was willing to take the risk. Even if he couldn\'t help her find the Celestial Dragon\'s heart, just finding Eren alone was enough for her.

She wanted to destroy him with her own hands. As long as the man didn\'t ask her to betray her Empire or do anything that was harmful to the Sea Dragons, she was willing to listen to any condition.

"I only want one thing from you. I want you to kill a few people for me when the time comes," the nameless man stated. "But you don\'t have to worry. I am not talking about the four Overlords."

"The ones I want killed... I don\'t believe it should be hard for you to kill them."

"Why don\'t you kill them yourself?" Sea Dragon Empress asked. Even if this man wasn\'t as strong as her, she was certain that he could find ways to kill those people.

Even if he was to hand over the Celestial Dragon\'s heart to Mist, she would have helped him kill those people in exchange. So why did he come so far from the continent?

"You don\'t need to know that," the man answered. "As long as you take a Dragon\'s Oath to help me in exchange for my help, I will tell you the whereabouts of the Celestial Dragon\'s heart right now to prove my words."

The Sea Dragon Empress wasn\'t sure how true his words were, but still, she stood up.

"I take an oath on my Bloodline... As long as you can help me find the Celestial Dragon\'s heart and the killer of my brother, I will help you kill all those you want dead, irrespective of their identity!"

She took the oath in front of everyone in the royal court. For a Dragon, an oath on their bloodline was everything.

If they failed their oath, they didn\'t die. Instead, the outcome was much worse.

If they didn\'t honor the Dragon\'s Oath, they were forced to live a fate worse than death. Even death could only be called a mercy in that situation.

As soon as she finished her oath, a blood-red mark appeared on her neck as proof of the successful oath.

"Good." The nameless man had achieved his goal. "The Celestial Dragon\'s Heart is in the Western Continent."

Before the Sea Dragon Empress could even react, he asked, "Have you heard about the Sword Emperor?"

"The last true Emperor of the Western Continent before the Holy Empire was established?"

The Sea Dragons had been searching for the Celestial Dragon\'s corpse for centuries.

Throughout those centuries, they had gathered quite a lot of information about the four continents, even the information that had long been buried and forgotten in this era.

The Sword Emperor was one of those people whose entire existence was buried and forgotten by the Holy Empire. There were only a handful of people who even remembered that name.

"Good. Then it should be easier to explain," the nameless man smiled.

....

"Sea Dragon\'s Blood!" Zia repeated. "Don\'t play dumb with me. You know exactly what I\'m talking about."

"I truly don\'t understand what you are talking about?"

Eren acted ignorant, but deep down, he was quite confused. He didn\'t understand how Zia knew about the Sea Dragon. Did he make a mistake somewhere?

"I went to your house to find you," Zia continued, her eyes narrowing. "There, I found a trace of Sea Dragon\'s Blood under your bed. Now stop pretending and tell me why it was there?"

Eren\'s lips twitched as he heard the explanation. Zia\'s discovery left Eren speechless for a moment, trying to come up with an explanation.

He was sure he had done a good job cleaning the floor when he last brought out the Sea Dragon\'s corpse. Did he actually leave a trace under the bed?

Even if he left something there, it was probably because he hadn\'t noticed it. So how could she notice it that easily?

"Were you a mouse in your last life?" he asked subconsciously.

"What?"

"Nothing. Honestly, I\'m still not sure what you are talking about." Eren rolled his eyes and continued.

"Blood in my house? You are saying that someone else entered my house when I wasn\'t there and left blood? Is this some black magic thing that I don\'t know about?"

"Even I am barely at my residence, so where would blood come from? It might even be a scheme by opposition parties to malign me."

"You stay here, I will go and check!" He patted Zia\'s shoulders and went past her.

Zia was still trying to understand his words. Black magic? Opposition Parties? What was he even talking about?

By the time she came to her senses, Eren had already disappeared from her sight.

Eren was flying towards his house, thinking to himself.

"Now that I think about it, maybe going to the Western Continent might not be half bad."
