Chapter 1276: 1063 The Patsy

Chapter 1063 The Patsy

After settling the matter between Zack and Eva, Ace arranges their accommodations in the living space ring so Zack and Connor can recover. They can't recover in the thief's space because their cultivation will be suppressed.

Furthermore, when Eva wanted to enter the space ring, Ace first asked the system and got a startling piece of information that Eva couldn't enter the grade-9 living space ring or that, with her current cultivation, the space within the space would be destroyed.

The grade-9 living space ring can only accommodate elemental state beings, not those above it. So, she had to stay in the thief's space no matter what. Although she was sulky, she tried not to show it and focused on Riana, who had submitted to her. However, they didn't tell Connor or Zack about this.

Thereupon, Ace left the core area of the imperial prison and encountered Warden Gerald, who was waiting for Antonio. Ace now had to make an excuse for Zack and Connor's sudden disappearance.

"Warden Gerald, you don't need to pay attention to the two traitors anymore." Antonio impassively stated.

Gerald was taken aback and wanted to know what Antonio meant when he continued, "I've already dealt with them after acquiring what I wanted. Since they no longer serve any purpose, I've ended their lives by burning them to ashes. This matter ends here."

Gerald was shocked, "S-so, they are dead?" He wasn't expecting that at all since it was Antonio himself who declared that he would torture Zack for a very long time because of his rebellious act, yet now he killed him just like that.

Antonio's eyes went icy cold, "Do I need to explain myself further?"

Gerald shuddered, quickly kneeled down, and pleaded, "I don't dare to question his majesty! Please forgive this humble subject!"ph!" Antonio snorted and left without saying anything, leaving sweating Gerald behind.

Only when Antonio was completely gone did Gerald breathe a sigh of relief, thinking, 'Should I report this to Her Majesty?'

Ace left the imperial prison before his lips curled up in a cold sneer, 'He would most likely report this to Jenna. Even Antonio wasn't aware that she had found a loophole in the ritual and that she could easily use his authority. She's been secretly undermining him for a long time and spreading her influence in places where she shouldn't have.

'Furthermore, Antonio also doted on her, and even if he had known this, he most likely wouldn't have said anything since he loved her. It's a pity I can't get that guy's memoirs, and Eva has just started to interrogate him.

"I'm feeling fine. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Sofia replied.

"You can call me father when there is no one around." Antonio suddenly smiled, startled Sofia as Antonio became more unfamiliar.

Antonio then continued, "I know you were close with Ancestor Monserrat, and we are all saddened by her death. But she sacrifices herself for the greater good of our empire, and that's why she's a hero. She had high hopes for you, in fact, we all have, so you need to do your best not to let her down and fulfill her wishes."

Sofia's eyes fluttered with a hint of sadness as she nodded, "I understand. Thank you for telling me this; I won't let you down."

"Good. Now that you seem to be on the right path, I don't have to worry about others after I leave." Antonio sighed in gratification.

Sofia was startled as she asked, "Leave? Are you going somewhere?"

Antonio smiled mysteriously as he revealed, "Well, I summoned you to discuss this matter. Even your mother didn't know that, and I hope you won't tell her since it will make her sad. I'll do it myself once she's done stabilizing the school.

"The thing is, after many years of cultivation and experiencing the battle with the traitors, I finally managed to break through in the final stage, and I sense that within one year, I would be able to ascend."

Sofia's eyes trembled in disbelief. She knew that her father's talent wasn't enough to reach this stage, and even her mother secretly told her that her father might not be able to ascend in his lifetime. Yet now, Antonio was confidently telling her that he would be able to ascend within a year. She was shocked.

"I-is it true, father?" Sofia questioned, still in disbelief.

"Heh, do you think your father doesn't have what it takes to ascend?" Antonio asked sternly.

Sofia snapped out of her daze and quickly shook her head, "Forgive my insolence; I was out of line! Congratulations on your breakthrough, Father. Mother will be thrilled once she finds out."

Antonio's expression relaxed a bit as he nodded smilingly, "That's why you have to keep it secret for now. The reason I'm informing you beforehand is that I want you to witness when I ascend. It'll be very beneficial to your cultivation journey. Just follow me that day, and it'll be an unforgettable experience for you!"
