The large-scale Assassination incident in the royal capital ten years ago—Shien had lost count of how many times he had heard about it from others.
It was during that incident that Laisha came to the Human Realm and the royal capital, encountered the Demon King's corpse as if it were fate, carried it out of the royal palace, and made it into Lasha.
It was during that incident that Tier's mother betrayed the kingdom and House Elbain, only to be personally slain by Aridia, laying the groundwork for Tier's eventual departure from House Elbain and even the royal capital.
Many noble houses suffered devastating losses in that incident. Some lost important descendants, while others even had their family heads assassinated.
At the time, the assassins had even slaughtered people openly in the streets, turning the royal capital into a river of blood.
To Shien, this was merely something he had heard from others. As both an observer and an outsider, he had almost no feelings about it.
At most, he found it unbelievable that the Slayer Faction led by Bedo had managed to accomplish something like that, considering that Old Demon Race member had once died miserably at his hands.
Of course, Shien now knew that the Slayer Faction had not been the only one to act in that incident. The Ragna Empire had also been pulling strings behind the scenes.
More precisely, it had been House Laifirut and the former Imperial Consort Moro stirring things up from behind the curtain.
With Tier's mother assisting from within as well, the Slayer Faction had ultimately been able to achieve such results.
Yet after that battle, the Old Demon Faction's Slayer Faction had also suffered terrible losses, completely falling from its position as one of the Old Demon Faction's foremost powers.
