ruler, then he is to be declared the next ruler.
This rule was made to ensure that the throne isnt passed onto some useless child just because he is the successor.

The entire royal family accepted this rule and had no say over it.
This carried on- The old man said and paused after Markus signalled him.

Markus could lightly hear some footsteps in the distance and he instantly pushed the old man inside their room while quickly following behind him.

Before anyone could see, both of them were already on their beds, acting to be fast asleep.

This is strange.
I could hear some whispers a moment ago.
A sleepy bodyguard said and scratched his head before waiting for another minute or two and ultimately leaving.

Markus only opened his eyes when he was sure that the man had left.
Thankfully he lived with a group of people who were made to work day and night, resulting in them falling sound asleep.

He tiptoed to the old man, signalling him to follow him outside.

From the old mans conversation, he could deduce that the man truly knew a lot and he could be of great help to conquer the professor and this cruel kingdom.


Once outside, he took no risk and directly helped the man climb up the tree before repeating the same himself.
Once they were on top, he said.

We dont have much time.
They will be here to fetch me within four hours.
And there will be a change of bodyguards every hour.
We need to wrap this up before some alert bodyguard replaces this one.
Markus said.

This carried on for a lot of generations until a major event happened.
The old man started again.

Grandpas son, who is the professors father, was killed by some unknown person.
Thus according to the previous rules, the man was supposed to be the next ruler.

But grandpa, afraid to loose control over the entire Imperial Nation secretly murdered that man.

Afraid to lose their lives under grandpas cruelty, nobody spoke another word against the dirty trick played by grandpa.

Soon it was declared that since the professor was young, grandpa would be making decisions for the Imperial Nation and once he died, the throne would be passed onto the Professor.
The man said.

There is more to it, right? I mean what can I do about this? Markus said.

Yeah.
What you have to do is simple, kill the grandpa and leave this Imperial Nation quickly.
The man said.

My aim is to kill the professor, not some useless old grandpa.
Markus said.

The professor only has his grandpa right now.
If he were to lose him, the entire Imperial Nation would be in chaos.
In fact, the reason behind this illogical and inhuman behaviour of the Professor is his grandpa.
His useless pampering encouraged the professor to do whatever he wanted, even if it included killing.
The old man explained.


Killing grandpa wont be an easy task.
And I find no logic in this.
I mean lets say that I manage to kill his grandpa.
Then what? You want me to leave this place.
Tell me do you think I have any reasons to do this? Kill grandpa and run away.
For what? Markus asked.

Thats what I am telling you.
Once you kill grandpa, the entire Imperial Nation will be in chaos.
Thats your cue.
You have to leave this hell immediately and bring your men inside during that period.

Although the professor seems intelligent, he has always asked his grandpa to confirm his plans.
But if he loses his guide, he is sure to end up with a terrible plan, that too after your sudden attack.

Your main goal right now is to find the number of people working under professor to make preparations before you attack.
The man finished.

Markus thought the entire thing through and knew the plan that the old man had described had a lot of loopholes and risks within it.
But it was better than nothing.
And who knew what new information he would grasp once he was inside the walls, working as a bodyguard.

Okay.
But from your statements, grandpa holds a lot of power within the Imperial Nation.
Which means a lot of people to protect them as well.
How am I supposed to kill him and yet escape? Markus asked the main point.

Hehe..
hope you all are doing well after all these days..
Thank you for your constant support.
Poating a little longer chapter this time.
Stay healthy and love yall.
