Me! Cleaner!.

Chapter 573: Finale (Part )

"..."

After hearing what Leon said, Prince Andre, whose body was covered with snake scales, was silent for a moment. Then he turned his head to look at Filia next to him. His lips moved slightly twice, but he said nothing.

"Andre, this is your last chance."

"I……"

After hearing Leon's reminder, Prince Andre trembled slightly, looked at his sister who was in pain, and finally whispered:

"I'm sorry... I'm not a good brother..."

"..."

Felia, with a look of pain on her face, turned her head and glanced at him softly, then shook her head, stretched out her arms covered with crow feathers, and tremblingly placed them on his shoulders. Although she didn't say anything, it seemed as if she had said everything.

After receiving her gaze, the tears in Prince Andre's eyes suddenly fell, and he said with regret:

"I'm sorry! Filia, I'm sorry to you and to all of you. If... if we were not born in the Kingdom of Korok, how good would it be?"

Um...wait?!

Upon hearing this, Leon next to him was slightly startled, as if he had vaguely grasped something, but it was so vague and not quite real.

Prince Andrei, on the other hand, hugged Feliya, who was covered in crow feathers, and cried incoherently:
"It's all my fault. I was too... If... If we were not born into the royal family and didn't have this damn bloodline, maybe... maybe our family would be able to..."

"Wait a moment!"

When Prince Andrei was halfway through crying, Leon hissed and then slapped him hard on the back.

"Quick! Say what you just said again!"

"what?"

When he was crying heart-wrenchingly, he was interrupted by someone. Prince Andre was stunned for a moment, and then said in astonishment:

"Maybe our family can..."

"Not this one! Move forward a little further!"

Further forward...

"If we weren't born into a royal family, we wouldn't have this damn..."

"This is it!"

Finally catching the inspiration, Leon slapped his thigh, then pulled Prince Andre's soul up from the ground and asked loudly:

"Tell me quickly, what exactly is the 'constraint' you signed? Is it like a switch that can't be turned off, or will it continue to be triggered as it is now?"

"It is continuously triggered..."

Andre, who was somewhat confused, pointed to the three blood beads floating between his eyebrows and said:

"These three are the seals of the blood oath. They are also the marks responsible for executing the blood oath. It seems that several members died in the past due to accidentally violating the blood oath. So now, except for cases of deliberate leaks, they have changed to this continuous triggering method..."

"Then here comes the chance! Now kneel down! Surrender to me immediately!"

"what?"

"Don't you understand? Your three constraints all have prerequisites!" Pointing at the three blood beads floating between Prince Andre's eyebrows, Leon repeated the three constraints and then explained:

"You are not allowed to leave while the Kingdom of Korok exists; you are not allowed to give birth to royal offspring; no Korok royal family is allowed to be arrested and taken away... All of this is based on the royal family! Do you understand?"

"What you mean is..."

"What I mean is that I am now waging war on behalf of the Robin Kingdom, capturing the last two of your royal families, and directly destroying the Korok Kingdom!"

In the confused look of Prince Andre, Leon reminded him:

"Only the ruler of a kingdom is the royal family. If the Kingdom of Korok is gone, what kind of royal family are you? And since no royal family members have been captured and taken away by the Cleanup Bureau, can your constraints still be effective?"

Should... stop?!
After thinking about Leon's thoughts for a while, Prince Andre couldn't help but tremble with excitement, and then he said hesitantly:
"This... this is a bit of a joke, right? Can it really work?"

"You have to try it, right?"

After helping the emerald-eyed girl up and making her kneel before him, Leon dragged Prince Andre to kneel as well, performing the most crude surrender ceremony in history. He then broke off a dry branch from the side as a ceremonial sword, placed it on Prince Andre's shoulder, and announced loudly:
"I, Leon Ryan, discovered the hidden evil of the Kingdom of Korok during my diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Korok. I launched a war on behalf of the Kingdom of Migrants, captured the palace of the Kingdom of Korok, captured the last two members of the royal family of the Kingdom of Korok, and announced the demise of the Kingdom of Korok!"

"..."

"What are you still hesitating about! Don't you want your sister's life? Surrender now!"

"..."

I can surrender, but your ceremony is somewhat humiliating. And generally speaking, even if I surrender, I don't have to kowtow to you...

Seeing Leon urging him to surrender again and again, Prince Andre's mouth twitched involuntarily. Then he had no choice but to try his luck and pulled his sister to bow to Leon.

"I... Andre, the third prince of the Kingdom of Korok, and I, along with the sixth princess, Feliya, surrender to... to the person in front of me, and declare that I will forever give up my royal family status of the Kingdom of Korok..."

Following Prince Andre's declaration, the three-colored blood beads between the two men's brows actually began to shake, and then began to disintegrate visibly.

It works! It actually works!

He didn't expect that he could bypass the blood oath by such a ridiculous method. Andre, the king of the fallen country, couldn't help but stand up excitedly.

However, at this moment, after the three-colored blood beads collapsed halfway, they did not continue to disintegrate, but slowly stopped changing, still rotating quietly, slowly and irresistibly crushing everything they had.

Still not working?
Looking at the three-colored blood bead between his eyebrows that had only shrunk a little but was still constantly destroying his soul, the expectant eyes of Andre and his sister suddenly dimmed.

Sure enough, it was impossible to completely bypass the constraints of the King-Slaying Society in such a frivolous way. It only loosened the hand that was strangling his throat a little, and the fate of the two of them remained unchanged.

……

"Do you think it's possible? Is this condition alone not enough?"

After staring at the three-colored blood bead that had shrunk by half, Leon frowned and said:

"The two of you are bound by two things: you cannot leave the Kingdom of Korok, and you cannot be taken away from the Kingdom of Korok by the people of the Cleansing Bureau. So... in addition to your royal status, will the Kingdom of Korok itself also be one of the conditions of the blood oath?"

???

What you mean is... you have only completed the "surrender" but have not actually "occupied" the territory of the Kingdom of Korok, so you have not completely destroyed the Kingdom of Korok, nor can you completely end the blood oath?
With the previous precedent, Prince Andre instantly understood Leon's plan, and then asked with a twitching cheek:
"Do you want to occupy..."

"Let's destroy the entire Korok Kingdom!"
