The Doomed And Blessed, 13th Young Miss Chapter 52

CHAPTER 52

Matthew had gained that much evidence against his in laws, that most of them were beheaded, and the rest were exiled out of the capital and never to come back into government. He had not told anyone, but he himself, had taken over the executioner’s job, and he dropped the executioner’s sword down on each and every one of them!

It wasn’t just to vent out his anger, but he knew that he had to become a lot stronger willed…

He knew that this was only the start of death in his life…Beheading people, had to become something that he could do without flinching!

Not only had Matthew beheaded them himself, he had gone out of the capital and taken revenge on those who had ‘gotten away’ as well, making his revenge complete.

Yet, when the news of the whole clan coming to their deaths, was heard by the Emperor, he could find no evidence to punish anyone for it.

…And since then, the Second Prince had become a little distant and found himself loyal people to come to his side. Not only did he give up his right to the Green Haven throne, but he managed to still gather half of the population of Green Haven, to his side. He was even able manage to snag relations with people, even though they had wanted him to marry their daughters, in return for their loyalty.

Having used Isabella’s death as his reasoning to state he wasn’t going to remarry as of yet, he had still been able to obtain their loyalty through other means. A family had been related to another family, that had been exiled outside of the capital, and the Second Prince was able to bring them back, gaining both of those family’s trust. Another family was Isabella’s friend’s family that were already on his side, but he had helped them obtain a monopoly, making them even richer than before, and their loyalty immeasurable. He knew that the young lady of the rich family had liked him very much, noticing that they had even asked the Emperor to bestow the marriage between them.

Matthew had declined the marriage outright to the Emperor, but not publicly. Beyond that, he told the Emperor that he will find his future princess himself, this time.

Throughout his first sixteen years, Matthew had hardly said any kind of order, he was known to be quite docile. But after…He became a leader that seemed to be able to reach great heights and didn’t hesitate to state his opinion. His words to the Emperor had been swift and determined, even making the Emperor go slightly stunned himself.

His change of personality, and the secret knowledge of his allies growing larger and larger, had also gotten the Crowned Prince’s attention.

It looked like Matthew was secretly getting ready for a battle…

Having been so young and naive before, Matthew had never thought this kind of thing should happen, but…He had his own secret army called ‘slayers’, who he himself even trains with occasionally.

It was three months after Isabella’s death, that Matthew had learnt of his true heritage, making his decision firm on leaving the right to become the Emperor of Green Haven.

His real father had visited him, telling him a story, that he didn’t believe straight away. But, his mother hadn’t denied it, when he had brought it up with her. At that stage, he wasn’t in the mood to keep that kind of secret to himself, and bluntly asked her about it. If it were true, he figured his mother would somehow let him know and she would still continue to keep it a secret. If it were a lie, she wouldn’t have acted that way and most likely would have said something like, ‘Even if you have lost someone recently, it doesn’t mean you can condemn me this way!’.

But, she hadn’t…She had looked at him silently. And after a few minutes, she had finally nodded her head and looked away from him.

Matthew had to change his perspective from then on…The Emperor suddenly became someone else, instead of a father…He was just ‘His Majesty, the Emperor of Green Haven’ and Matthew was his loyal subject.

Knowing through his own spiritual essence, that the Crowned Prince thought badly of him, Matthew no longer had any affections for his ‘brother’ anymore either.

What he was still sure of, was that the Crowned Prince might look like he’s very friendly and happy with him, but Matthew knows that it is all an act.
