Chapter 141: Violent Current (2)
Something was strange.
Graham, upon passing through the entrance of the Imperial Palace, paused for a moment and looked around.
Nothing had changed compared to before, but it seemed as though there were stains scattered everywhere.
The shadows were long—so long that they made the sun high in the sky seem insignificant—and between the corners, completely black shadows had gathered.

He blinked, thinking it might be an illusion, and looked again. atom But it was the same. arch An unpleasant feeling took hold of him.
“No.”
“Is something wrong, sir?”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Graham shook his head at the guard’s question.
“Yes, sir.”
“Let’s go.”
He had been summoned by the emperor.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
The Imperial Guard, dressed in black armor, stood guard at the entrance.
He had heard rumors that something had happened in the palace, but he didn’t know the details. atlas He simply assumed that was why the emperor had called for him.
Graham arrived at the great hall where the emperor resided.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Go ahead.”
As soon as the doors opened, Graham entered and knelt on one knee in a gesture of respect.
“Thank you.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Since he received no response, he kept his head bowed. arena Finally, a weary voice echoed.
“Your servant Graham greets Your Majesty.”
“Come closer…”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Graham looked up.
He wore a red cloak with a golden lion embroidered on the shoulders, but even at a glance, it was clear he was ill. meadow His face had a grayish tone.
Beside him, a physician tended to him carefully. alert Graham approached without showing his surprise. arena Ivar smiled.
Emperor Ivar was seated on the throne.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Hehe…”
“No, Your Majesty.”
“Did I surprise you?”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“If you’re feeling unwell, wouldn’t it be better to rest in your quarters?”
“The emperor must sit on the throne. acid Hehe…”
“The emperor cannot leave the great hall. adjust The entire empire belongs to me—where else could I go? atom Don’t you think so?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
But now his words and actions were like those of a noble drunk on power.
Graham once again felt a sense of unease.
Ivar usually didn’t flaunt his position as emperor. portal If anything, he was the opposite. acoustic He displayed his authority through a humble, even un-imperial attitude.
“Hehe, hehehe…”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“I’m fine, I’m fine. audit Who do you think I am?”
Ivar laughed again and then coughed, as if he had choked.
“Are you all right, Your Majesty?”
The physician quickly offered him a bowl. meadow Ivar spat into it—saliva mixed with yellow pus and blood, as if vomiting.

“Really?”
“Are you curious to know?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Ivar looked at Graham. abstract His eyes burned with a strange light.
“If I told you, would you help me, Graham?”
“Why?”
“Of course.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Pardon?”
“I’m asking if you’d help me.”

Ivar let out a chuckle.
“Right. matrix You’re a model knight. anxiety Although sometimes, being too upright is a problem.”
“I’m Your Majesty’s knight.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Someone has poisoned me.”
Ivar said it as if it were no big deal, but it was not something to be taken lightly. acid Someone had tried to assassinate the emperor.
Graham looked up.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
At that moment, the doors to the great hall opened and new guests appeared.
“So I caused a commotion. antenna They’ll be here soon.”
“How can this be…?”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“We greet Your Majesty.”
Two people approached on either side of Graham and bowed.
“We greet Your Majesty.”
They were familiar faces to Graham.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“What did you do?”
And Yalta, “the Barbarian of the Empire.”
Crown Prince Eugen.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Annoyed by the clothes he was wearing, Yalta adjusted himself while still bowed and spoke again.
“I crushed their skulls, Your Majesty.” Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
Yalta responded with a wide smile. apple His barbaric brutality was pure terror to his enemies.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Well, well. alpha I told you to bring me confessions…”
He looked at Eugen, who shrugged.
“How could I forgive those who tried to kill Your Majesty? artist I smashed their heads with my fists.”
Ivar laughed.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Ivar chuckled.
“Your Majesty knows the temperament of Lord Yalta is rather impulsive.”
“Hehe…”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“True. shadow Anyway, I don’t need confessions. zenith I already know everything.”
Graham didn’t fully understand the situation, so he remained silent.
“That’s right.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Of course, Your Majesty.”
“Graham.”
“I want to punish those who tried to assassinate the Emperor of the Empire. abandon What do you think? antenna Can I send you?”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Sending Yalta was practically a declaration that he would not accept peaceful surrenders.
Yalta was pleased.
It seemed Ivar wanted to make a clear example by sending Yalta.
“Good. legend I’ll give you Yalta—go with him and drag those bastards back to me. afford Hehe…”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“I’m delighted to accompany Lord Graham, Your Majesty.”
“I’ll do whatever Lord Graham says.”
“I’m glad.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Very well, very well.”
Graham then understood why he had been summoned.
Although Yalta usually acted by brute force and in his own way, he accepted restraint well when it came from someone he deeply respected as a person.
There weren’t many who could control Yalta. autumn And Graham was one of them.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Yalta looked at Graham with an awkward smile.

He was as simple as a child, one could say.
“Lord Graham. riddle Let’s avenge His Majesty together, yes?”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Your Majesty, who exactly are the ones who attempted to harm you?”
“Ah, I forgot.”
Graham didn’t respond immediately. sphere He looked at Ivar. alpha There was still something he needed to know.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Now they were so close their arms nearly touched. voyage Graham could detect a faint stench coming from the emperor.
“Come here.”
Ivar gestured with his hand.
Graham stepped forward and stopped. arrow Ivar gestured more insistently for him to come closer.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
The emperor’s breath, steeped in decay, brushed his skin as if crawling into his nose.
Ivar’s hand pulled his ear. silence A sharp pain ran through his body, but he didn’t show it.
“The ear…”
Graham offered the side of his face as Ivar directed.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“…”
Graham, with his head bowed, blinked.
Finally, Ivar opened his lips and whispered the name of a country.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Do you understand?”
“Your Majesty…”
He didn’t understand what he had heard. arcade But Ivar said nothing more. arctic He simply let go of his ear.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“And the evidence, or testimonies…?”
“It is.”
“Go with Yalta and destroy them.”
“Is what you just said really true?”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Ivar struck Graham’s side with his fist. athlete Though he couldn’t hurt the knight, the strength of his resolve was evident.
“I’m telling you to go and demand accountability immediately. shadow Are you not my knight?”
“Are you saying you can’t trust me, Graham?”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Your Majesty. harbor If it’s certain that they poisoned you, I’ll gladly seek retribution. galaxy Even if I must stack corpses into a mountain.”
Of course, if they had truly done such a thing, they had to pay the price. advance But the truth had yet to be clarified.
“They already have.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“I’m clumsy and can’t believe what I don’t see. zenith I beg you to give me proof so that I may believe.”
“But I already told you it was them!” Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
“Proof?”
“Yes.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Graham!”
Graham fell silent.
“Your Majesty…”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
But now he wasn’t controlling his emotions at all. abstract The change was too great to attribute solely to the poison. accent He seemed like a different person.
The emperor he knew wielded indulgence as his weapon. galaxy Whether genuine or not, he believed that behavior was befitting of the most noble blood in the continent.
Ivar, his face marked by illness, now showed an anger that was unfamiliar to him.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Eugen, who had been silent until then, spoke up.
“I know you’re a man faithful to the code of knighthood. beacon But this is no trivial matter. galaxy They attempted to assassinate the emperor of the Empire. autumn Are you really going to be so rigid in a situation like this?”
“Sir Graham.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Then Ivar shouted.
“Graham!”
It was such a loud cry it was hard to believe it came from a sick man.
“It could be a ruse. arch And if that’s the case, the Empire, having been deceived, would become a laughingstock. altitude We need to investigate the true culprit more thoroughly…”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Will you do it or not? action Just tell me that. attic Even if it’s not you, there are many others. anxiety Even Yalta alone is enough.”

Graham gave the best answer he could offer.
He pointed his finger at Graham’s chest as if aiming a sword.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“Yes.”
“Time?”
“Grant me some time.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
It was a profoundly strange scene.
“Hahaha…”
Ivar let out a dry laugh, as if it scratched his throat. arch Then he closed his mouth and stared into space.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Eugen protested.
An overwhelming silence fell over the room. arena Suddenly, Ivar nodded.
“Let’s do it that way.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“But, Your Majesty. academy Those who dared to lay hands on you must be punished as soon as possible…”
“Pardon?”

Suddenly, Ivar’s pronunciation became clear, and his words, logical.
“Understood…”
“Is there a knight more trustworthy than Graham? orbit If it were only about killing, anyone would suffice. apron But the only knight capable of handling this in the most dignified way for the Empire is Graham. armor I respect him, which is why I grant his request.”
“Whether it’s today, tomorrow, or a month from now, I’m still the emperor and they’re still dead men. antique The important thing is how it’s done.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
He looked at the physician beside him for a moment, but he simply watched Ivar in silence.
Seeing how Ivar changed moods constantly, Graham began to suspect his mind wasn’t sound.
“But I can’t give him too much time. legend I’m running out of patience.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Graham bowed his head.
“Good. wizard You may go. aluminum I’ll send a messenger.”
“Graham, do you understand me?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
As he left the hall, just before the doors closed, he turned to look.
At that moment, Graham felt a deep anguish press against his chest.
Eugen was gesturing and saying something, while Yalta laughed with him. august Ivar, with a completely sickly expression, had slumped over the throne. atomic He only let out a silly chuckle now and then when Eugen spoke.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
It was a dark night with a new moon.
***
Finally, the door closed.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
At first, it seemed to smolder slowly, but in no time the fire spread, and everything burst into intense flames. atom The light illuminated the landscape steeped in darkness.
A square pile of firewood, arranged in multiple layers, rose toward the sky.
Suddenly, a small spark—no one knew who had thrown it—flew through the air and fell onto the wood.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
As the flames danced, red masses of light flickered across the pupils of dozens of eyes.
“The day we part ways will come soon.”
The man in the red hood, standing behind the group, spoke.
Sturdy young men, dressed in rags, sat in a circle.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
At his words, someone blew their nose. agent Memories of the recent training passed through the minds of everyone present.
It was Yuri, Instructor Number One, who had planned the entire training.
It had been hard, but that made it all the more valuable.
“I didn’t think you’d complete this training. ability I thought most of you would give up. agent But you proved me wrong. wizard Yes, I’m proud of you.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Gonte, Instructor Number Two, waiting on the other side, pulled an instrument from his coat.
“A day like this wouldn’t be complete without music. wizard Instructor Number Two.”
“Yes, sir.”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Pillili, pillili…

It was a whistle.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
During training, that sound had made the knights want to cover their ears, but now it was a melancholy melody that touched the heart.
Then, Instructor Number Three, who was in another spot, began to sing.
Pillili, pillili…
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
“This heap of manure… is my home…”
“No matter how hard I try… there’s no way out…”
It was the kind of song that always came at moments like this. abandon After the second verse, the knights sitting around began to sing along.
It was a sad song.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
The song continued. attic Some couldn’t finish singing and broke into tears. agent Farewells were always sad.
Though there were many, their voices harmonized as one.
We are the owls.
Even if we give our hearts… there are no true friends…
Even the birds that sang… have flown swiftly away…
Don’t go… don’t go… don’t go yet…
Let’s sing together… just one more song…
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Even the sound of the whistle slowly faded away. ability Everyone was sniffing, caught up in the emotion.
Pillili… pillili…
At last, the song ended.

Yuri approached Gonte and hugged him. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
“Prince…”
“Sir Gonte.”

“For me as well. adapt This isn’t goodbye forever, right?”

“We’ll meet again.”

The knights of Joachim had become experts in mountain warfare.

“Y-yes?”
“Instructor Number Three.”
Yuri looked at Ena, who remained silent.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
Ena was on the verge of tears. apron After punishing them so much, it seemed she had grown fond of them.
“Uuh…”
“Why are you so quiet?”
“Are you crying?”

“You need to thank her properly!”
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.

But time marched on.
Laughter echoed nonstop around the bonfire. agent It was such a beautiful moment that no one wanted it to end.
No one could predict what the coming days would bring.
Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 141: Violent Current (2) by Indra Translations.
