"Indeed, someone attempted to assassinate me!"
Emperor Otto pounded the desk in a rage, roaring furiously.
Just half an hour ago, a soldier had reported that he had found a way to counter the minefield, and the Emperor, greatly surprised and pleased, had the Blade Warrior invite him in.
But as soon as the soldier entered, he suddenly pulled out a nail and stabbed at the Emperor. Fortunately, the nail only slashed through the Emperor's outer robe and was blocked by the Dragon Scale skin underneath.
After all, Emperor Otto was already a Level 10 Transcendent.
The soldier who attempted the assassination was immediately subdued by the Blade Warriors, who had barely recovered from the shock. It was only after interrogation that they learned the man had stuffed the tiny nail into his nostril to pass the Blade Warrior's search and inspection.
