Chapter 226: Luck Blast
"STAY AWAY FROM HER. FROM NOW ON, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO EVER MEET HER," Henry ordered in a higher tone.
"But why, Father? I’m sure you already know I love her. Don’t tell me... you’ve taken a liking to her as well—" The crown prince raised his voice in front of his father for the first time. Henry was truly speechless for a few seconds.
"Whatever may be the case, it will be better for you if you stay away from her. Don’t go near her if you want to stay alive," Henry said while massaging his temples. Vritra was too dangerous, and getting involved with him might bring unknown dangers to his family.
Henry only wanted to protect them.
’I-Is Father threatening me? He will kill me for a woman?!’ Though the crown prince took those words the wrong way, he was shocked by Henry’s tone.
’I have always listened to him and did everything in my power to become the son he could be proud of. I even married that fat old woman because he told me to, and this is all I amount to in his eyes?’
The crown prince had a dead look in his eyes. He knew talking further was meaningless; his father was probably going to get Sonia soon.
"Sigh, go back to your room and rest a little. Or maybe meet your youngest brother—he hasn’t come out of his room even once. And just forget about that woman. That is the best for everyone," Henry said as he watched his son leave the chamber in silence.
’How did it all come to this? Why has it come to this? Right after Jin Woo came here, all of this has started. But why would he hate me?’ Henry believed that it was all related to Vritra, but he couldn’t understand the motive.
’I’m sure I haven’t made him my enemy or anything, but then why...?’ he was left wondering, as he sat in the darkness.

Vritra had emptied almost the entire weapons treasury after around thirty or so minutes. It was almost like he could sense the joy of his weapons as they devoured so many high-level weapons.
