An Understated Dominance

Chapter 1814

"The only way into the castle is over my dead body!" With a huge sword in her hand, Eloise stood alone with great courage at the main entrance to defend the castle.

She wasn't actually a strong fighter. At most, she could pass as a divine-level martial artist. However, her current presence was stronger than that of a grandmaster.

The common soldiers and even Draven were stunned. His brow was locked in a deep frown, and he didn't dare to move. The only thing he could do was to look at the three other sovereigns.

Threats and the palace revolution aside, they needed a valid reason to attack Eloise. If they didn't, the people would protest and turn against them.

They surrounded the castle in the name of staking out the killer. They'd be able to get off the hook if they acted a little brashly.

They could use overwhelming sadness and being overly emotional as their excuse for their rude behavior.

However, they'd never be able to explain themselves if the princess died in the revolt.
