Chapter 1260 Executed!
- Under normal circumstances, Baron would never have shown such defiance. But after witnessing Kingsley's power firsthand, he had been scared beyond reason. Any thoughts of betrayal had long since vanished.
- He understood that if he ever turned against Kingsley, even if he survived the immediate danger, the military would hunt him down relentlessly. Not only would he die a horrible death, but he would also be branded a traitor to Qustia, and his family would never be able to hold their heads high again.
- So rather than groveling, it was better to gamble on confrontation. If he played his cards right, he might just survive.
