Armipotent Chapter 559
Advertisement
Unfortunately for Terry Brook, the other six Epic Ranks including his son, Gareth Brook did not follow him into attacking Julius Brent.
Julius Brent was about to make his move but he did not need it as the ten Generals arrived. Two of them blocked Terry Brook. One General kicked out the sword while another General stomped on the old man's back. The two Ancient Ranks easily stopped the Epic Rank.
"What should we do about this old man, My Lord? Should we kill him?" General Ralph looked toward Julius Brent.
"No, don't kill him! We have a good use for him," Julius Brent smiled and approached the old man. Meanwhile, his eyes were looking at Gareth Brook, "Aren't you curious why your father tried to stop me? Aren't you guys curious about what happened to Rosalie the Flame Queen?"
"Don't listen to this Traitor! Kill him!" Terry Brook tried to use flame in his hand to break free but General Ralph easily negated the fire. He stomped on the hand and broke the hand as the bone-cracking sound resounded.
"Huuuu, doesn't this make you guys even more curious to listen to my story… No, it's not my story but my Master's story, Commander of the Fotia Legion, Commander Alton," Julius Brent smiled at the six remaining Epic Ranks. They were quite young for someone who had reached an Epic Rank. The history they listened to was that the Ambrose Family betrayed the Kingdom and killed the hero of the kingdom, Rosalie the Flame Queen.
Gareth Brook's eyes widened when the name of Commander Alton was brought up. That was just another legendary figure within the kingdom. From what he knew, Commander Alton decided to live in solitude so it was a surprise to hear that Commander Alton had a disciple.
"You are right, Commander Alton is the one who established the Revolution Army. The Revolution Army is his heritage but he is too weak to lead the Revolution Army so I am carrying his will to fight in his stead and also for our hero who freed us from the demon, Rosalie the Flame Queen.
She was poisoned by Robert Kingsley, the former head of the Kingsley Family and the current Right-Wing Guardian. Do you know that Robert did not plan to kill her but to make our hero be a prostitute for the upper-class people? Do you know that? Yes, Crystal Ambrose never assassinated her best friend but it was the Kingsley Family, the current ruling family of the Kingdom. They got rid of obstacles without tainting their reputation, quite well-planned," Julius Brent smiled and squatted next to Terry Broke, "Did I say the truth, old man?"

He gripped Terry's white hair and pulled his face up for his son to see, "Tell them the truth, old man! Brook Family is just a Viscount before but how could you climb so quickly without much accomplishment? There's been no war or major event for years after our war against the Great Demon, how can your family climb up so quickly?"
Terry Brook tried to spit at Julius Brent's face but the wind reflected the spit, and it landed back on Terry's wrinkled face, "Don't listen to his nonsense. The Ambrose Family is the culprit behind the Queen's assassination! It has nothing to do with the Royal Family! They are just making an excuse to justify their action! They are traitors of the kingdom!"
"I have enough proof of my claim. Why would the ex-Vice Commander Allan of the Fotia legion defect to Warmir to fight the Lionax Kingdom? Why would My Master create a Revolution Army to fight the Lionax Kingdom? Do you know the reason why ex-vice Commander Larry joined the Lionax Kingdom but never took a part in the military position? Don't you think that all of these are suspicious?" Julius Brent's smile got wider as he looked at Terry brook.
"I don't expect that the dogs of the Kingsley Family would be this loyal but maybe you will change your mind with this," Julius Brent took out a green pouch from his clothes and took out something inside the green couch. It was white, about the two fingers big, and it wriggled as Julius Brent held the thing.
"Do you know what this is?" He showed the big wriggling worm in his hand to Terry Brook, "This is Bone Devourer. An old tool for torture. Once the worm enters your body it will devour your bone and your skull without killing you. A wonderful creature isn't it?"
Terry Brook showed a terrified expression. Of course, he knew about this Bone Devourer Bone. One of the cruel things used to torture the prisoners.
Julius Brent did not stop there as he took another pouch. This one was a black-colored pouch. He took the same size worm but it was black instead of white. The worm wriggled in his hand, and he showed the second worm to Terry Brook. If the white worm was a bone-eating worm, the black one was the flesh-eating worm.

"Flesh Devourer. They only eat flesh, including your organs. This thing can kill even Ancient Rank in the most painful way," Julius Brent smiled, "I will let you eat the white ones and the black one after if you don't tell the truth, so what's your choice?"
"I will tell you everything I know! I will tell everything I know!" Terry Brook was terrified. He immediately snitched and told everything he knew about the fall of the Flame Queen.
Gareth Brook had a disbelief expression on his face as he heard his father's words. He never thought that the Flame Queen was killed by the Kingsley Family. Then he recalled Julius Brent's words early. It was ironic instead that he called Julius Brent, who tried to bring justice to their hero while they were serving the real traitor.
"Let's stop this conflict and join my cause. We will bring justice to our hero!" Julius Brent's face turned solemn and raised his voice. He then threw Terry Brook to his son's feet, "Our hero deserves more than just to become a name of a city. She is more than that!"
Rosalie the Flame Queen. The Lionax Kingdom would never forget that name. Everyone adored her, men and women no exception. The children idolized the Flame Queen. If you ask ten children what they wanted to be when they grew up, all of them would have the same answer. They wanted to be like The Flame Queen. Even though she died years ago, her name had a big influence on the people of the Lionax Kingdom. Julius Brent tried to use this name to his advantage. To gain support from the people of the kingdom.
Julius Brent walked toward Gareth Brook and offered his hand, "Let's bring justice to our Hero,"
Gareth Brook looked at the hand and then looked at Julius Brent's face. After some hesitation, Gareth Brook reached the hand, "I am willing to follow your cause, My Lord. From today onwards, the Brook Family will only be loyal to you, my Lord." Gareth Brook knelt.
'This is working. I should this to my advantage but it's not too late either,'
Just like that, Julius Brent captured Glimmer City easily. It was not even half an hour. He captures the city because the nobles joined the Revolution Army. Of course, the revelation was not the main cause. The nobles realized that they could not win against the Revolution Army so they defected.

Glimmer City's city hall
"Harold! I want the truth about Queen Rosalie to spread within the kingdom in two days. Can you make it?" Julius Brent looked at General Harold who was in charge of the information network of the Revolution army.
"Leave it to me, my Lord. I can do that with the Revolution Army's networking power," General Harold nodded his head in response. Rosalie the Flame Queen had a big influence within the kingdom. Julius wanted to create chaos even between the forces of the Lionax Kingdom. He wanted everyone to know the truth, hoping that the nobles would join his side.
That way, he could also hurt the Kingsley Family's credibility and justify their action. So when the Revolution Army managed to take down the Kingsley Family, the people would easily accept them in power.
"Two days until our clash against the main force. I will visit Orranor World and call the Valean Kingdom's force to aid us in the battle. I will leave the army in your guys' hand," Julius Brent stood up from the main seat and left the city hall.

Marrow
Marrow was old... older than me or you. Older than the nation he lived in. And older than anyone he knew. Which is not surprising, because he did not know anyone else. He had been sitting, or perhaps leaning is the more apt expression, in a closet for many, many years, and had done nothing but stare. But eating, or rather chewing, a spider opened up another world to him. A world with a voice that was talking to him - to HIM! Marrow did not get what the voice was saying, but that was secondary at this point. And Marrow started to feel restless. Nuff said. If you like a sometimes quirky skeleton as the main character and want to ride along for its coming of age, or perhaps rather coming of sapience story... give it a shot. It is a litrpg context with skills, levels, heroes and monsters... and a skeleton. Not sure yet how fast the skeleton will level... we'll have to wait and see. As a disclaimer... this is my secondary novel... my main story is ongoing and most of my time is dedicated to that. As such, new chapters will, at first, be rather infrequent and irregular. If things go well, I may shift more attention to the story, but we shall see how things go.

Master of Dungeons
-This is my first attempt at uploading a story I created. It is not a fanfic, but uses several systems from other stories I've read. I hope you enjoy, and feel free to leave comments or criticisms as appropriate. Thank you.-Edwin Cast was your (mostly) regular guy living and working in Kentucky. He had a knack for working, and was always bouncing from job to job as fancy took him. Insatiably curious, he was always on the look out for new or interesting information or things to do. You could say he was a 'hard-work fanatic'.But with an ailing mother and the inability to realize that he was being shunned by those considered his 'betters', he met his mortal end at the hands of those people who he replaced. Beaten to death on the same day his mother died, he's soon pulled from the void into a world beyond his own imagination. Reborn into a fantasy world as the last 'Demon Lord', Edwin is expected to rule over a vast number of races, each of which are considered 'monsters' and demon-kin by the zealous human kingdoms of the world. And if that wasn't enough, the only way to progress and make ends meat is to build and control 'Dungeons' for the righteous humans to invade!Edwin will have to give it his all in a world he never expected even existed, and will have to learn to survive with his wits and growing power in order to establish something resembling peace in the war-torn lands of Eternia.-NOTE: I'm still in the process of working on the storyline, characters, and abilities that will be presented. A large number of themes are planned, and mature/adult content is planned. The story may also be a bit slow in some cases, so please bare with me. Thanks again!-NOTE: People have been mentioning the rough grammar and spelling errors that come with my posts; and while I've said so in the forum comments, I'm going to post it here as well. This is all basically a rough draft. I post the chapters as I write them, with only a spell-check for accuracy. None of the chapters are proofread. Once people point out blatant errors, I try to correct them; but otherwise I'm more interested in writing. If anyone wishes to proofread my work, shoot me a PM on the forums! Thanks again.
