Famous Sword: Executioner Broken Steel Sword

Yveta frowned, as the situation was more dangerous than the Old Witch had thought.

He wasn't a Demon God.

He had merely borrowed the power of six God Kings.

It was just that, for some reason, once his six types of devilish power lost balance, the Tree of Life Spiritual Energy would continuously surge out with leaked divine power.

The last time he transformed into a dragon, he had actually risked eternal slumber.

It seemed he would need to pay attention to the balance of his devilish power from now on, and could no longer casually let it lose balance.

Yveta suddenly thought of what the Old Witch always said, "All devilish magic comes with a price and corresponding risks."

Wasn't this also a kind of Law, which all wizards had to abide by?

The concept of Law deeply permeated every corner of the Black Forest, but he didn't know where the source of this Law came from.

Could it be from the Dark Queen and the Black Magic Domain?

Yveta snapped back to reality and said, "Mm, I understand."

"Now, the Hearthstone Witch wants to leave here, while I want to delve deeper into this operation."

"Since we are a team now, everyone should make their own decision. So, for fairness, let's all vote by raising our hands."

"The minority obeys the majority."

"Let's begin."

Yveta took a step back and raised his hand. "I think we can participate in this operation. Don't forget, our goal is to obtain territory."

"To have the foundation to fight against Arthas."

"You see..."

He pointed to the ogre he controlled by the Dark River. "This guy is the first spoil of war from this operation."

"I believe the Old Druid's prophecy can be trusted."

"Those who support my decision, please raise your hands."

Branton also raised his hand. "My Father is dead, and I truly lack the ability to be the Lord of the Moro Baron Territory."

"If Your Highness is coming to obtain territory, I am willing to cede the Baron's nobility to Your Highness."

"This is a reward for Your Highness, and also because I am powerless and can no longer bear the responsibilities of a Baron."

"Legally, this can be done. Because if the Treant People have indeed replaced all the important figures in the castle, then all the members of the Moro Family are now dead."

"I am the sole heir. And I will swear an oath of purity to the God of All Things, remain single for life to serve the Church, and I will become a Knight of the Church, automatically forfeiting the right to inherit the territory."

Branton said, "The Moro Baron Territory is a vital town that guards the only road entering the Ambrose Basin from the west. Therefore, there has always been a tradition for Lords lacking ability to recommend new, capable Lords to Ambrose, the Great Viscount."

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

No one had expected Branton to make such a decision.

But upon closer thought, the Moro Family, which had been almost slaughtered by the Children of the Forest, was bound to be unable to hold onto this territory.

It was better to give it to Yveta in exchange for Yveta's protection.

Leili immediately raised his hand upon seeing this, expressing his support for wading into troubled waters. "Although this trip is dangerous, if it weren't dangerous, how could we obtain territory?"

"I support my Lord."

Only the Old Witch and Black Wolf were left.

The Old Witch looked at Black Wolf, who hadn't raised his hand, and smiled. "I knew you wouldn't raise your hand. We are both very cautious."

Black Wolf lowered his head, then suddenly raised it and raised his hand.

He looked at the Old Witch, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not targeting you. But I just thought about it carefully, and I believe it's too late for us to escape now."

"We've already been targeted. Experience tells me that running away at this point is courting death."

The Old Witch grumbled, "That's because you don't know how to run. Every time something happens, I slip away in a flash."

"There are no consequences. Others have to clean up the mess, so why should I put in the effort?"

Seeing that everyone was on Yveta's side, she had no choice but to raise her hand as well. "Then I also support Your Majesty's decision."

"But Your Majesty, have you decided how to proceed? Ironically, the Children of the Forest can mobilize human armies against us at any moment."

Yveta said to her, "Let's divide the ogre's treasure chests first."

"I want a little time to think about the plan."

There were two treasure chests left from the ogre, a pile of unknown currency, and a pile of rusty swords.

Among them, only two swords glowed with a faint fluorescence.

Black Wolf, with his sharp eyes, took out a greatsword from the pile of rust. This greatsword had a heavy pommel and a meticulously carved crossguard, and there were three carved patterns on the blade depicting the heads of monstrous beings being cut off.

The first carving depicted a human using this sword to decapitate a Minotaur.

The second carving showed the head of a creature resembling a pig-man being cut off.

The third carving showed a centaur, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse, being impaled through the heart with this sword.

Black Wolf was overjoyed. "It's the Executioner! This is a famous sword once wielded by Great Knight Henry of the Salson Duchy. It's said he slew many non-humans with it."

"Special materials were mixed into this sword during its forging. Wounds inflicted by it will be inhibited from healing."

"This is a very famous weapon."

"Your Highness, this is the reward I want."

Yveta nodded. This sword was indeed most suitable for him and could significantly boost Black Wolf's combat power.

Yveta asked him, "Do you recognize the other sword?"

Black Wolf picked up the other sword. It looked plain and unadorned, with a round pommel, a square crossguard, and a quality wooden hilt. The blade was relatively slender, making it resemble more of an ornamental sword carried for ceremony.

Black Wolf nodded. "It's also a famous sword. If it weren't, it would have rusted away long ago from being soaked in water."

"This is the Broken Steel Sword."

"Look at the inscription near the hilt on the blade—'The sword that severs all things, forged with special iron ore that fell from Heaven.'"

"But I don't know its origin."

The Old Witch spoke, "Legend has it that Ambrose, the Great Viscount of the landless Erland, died in battle at the Po River, and his sword, the Broken Steel Sword, went missing. Over two hundred years have passed since then."

"So it fell into the hands of the Ogres."

"However, the claim that this sword can sever all things is foolish babble. It can indeed sever many swords, though. Because meteorite iron from beyond Heaven was added during its forging, and this sword was crafted by a witch."

"Therefore, it possesses a magical power that can sever all other swords."

The Old Witch said, "In short, although this is a knight's weapon, it can also be considered a magical item."

Yveta smiled. "Then this sword is quite useful."

"Branton, if I no longer need it in the future, I will bestow it upon you."

Branton was flattered. "Your Highness..."

Yveta addressed everyone, "I've thought of a way to deal with the Treant People."

"Branton, I want you to negotiate with the current Baron Moro. Tell him that your wings are now strong, and you want the title of Baron."

"We need to kill Baron Moro in a single room."

"We must lift the Children of the Forest's control over the Baron's Territory. In the process, we must also win over the human army of the Baron's Territory."

"Killing the Baron and seizing control of the human army is the only way we can defeat the Treant People."

Yveta told everyone, "But we must be prepared for anything. I've memorized escape routes this afternoon. Leili, you need to prepare several excellent warhorses along our planned escape route."

"I won't be stingy with money. All our money can be spent freely now, for our plan to reclaim the human Baron's Territory!"

Everyone exchanged glances.

To be honest, Black Wolf hadn't expected an inexperienced prince to have planned things to this extent.

Yveta said to them, "Actually, this is the first time I'm doing something like this, so if any accidents occur, we'll have to adapt on the fly."

"Leili, you are our only fallback. You must be prepared for escape."
