Fourth Prince's Debauchery Chapter 673: Alan’s Nightmare (2)

Chapter 673: Alan’s Nightmare (2)

"Claus…" Alan's voice was dry. "W-What are you doing here?"
I raised an eyebrow and looked at my brother with an amused look. "Don't you know the answer already, brother?"
"How did you find me?"
"Guess?" I chuckled, looking at him with a mocking expression.
At that moment, Alan saw Christine who was standing behind me dazedly.
"Christine! Be careful! He is dangerous!"
Christine was startled before nodding. She then hurriedly retreated and ran behind him.
I looked at that scene amusedly before fixing my eyes on my brother.
"Then, are you going to surrender, or do I need to force you to give up?"
"Bastard! Don't get cocky!"
Alan roared. He grabbed a sword that was nearby and used it to attack me!
The power of his attack was considerably strong. After all, he had received strength from Bringer of End. Even if that strength had already left him, it still increased his mana to the tenth layer.
But, to me, his attack was just the futile resistance of an ant.
Without even bothering to feign seriousness, I extended my hand forward, pinching the tip of his sword between my thumb and index fingers and stopping it completely.
Alan's eyes opened wide. He roared and tried to push the sword forward, but even when he put his entire mana into it, the sword did not move.
"Is it all?" I asked in a bored tone. Then, I twisted my wrist, snapping the sword into two.
Alan's eyes were filled with terror.
He hurriedly jumped back, standing protectively in front of Christine with a hopeless expression.
"… Christine, you escape. I will try to buy you time."
Christine fell silent. She looked at the ground for several seconds, and then, she sighed.
"Sorry, Alan."
Before he could react, she stabbed a dagger in his back.
Alan's eyes opened wide.
His eyes shook, and his expression became one of despair. He forced himself to look behind him, only to see Christine looking at him with an ice-cold look.
"… W…hy…"
I chuckled. "Is it not obvious? She betrayed you. Actually, I thought you realized it when I appeared. How can you be so stupid?"
Alan shivered. He laughed self-deprecatingly as he collapsed to the ground.
It was not that he did not realize it. He understood the truth when he saw me, but he did not want to believe it.
He did not want to believe that the person he loved the most had betrayed him.
I curled my lips up mockingly. Looking at his face filled with despair, I could not help but chuckle.
I then walked towards Christine and hugged her waist. Next, under Alan's despairing gaze, I kissed her lips.
Christine did not resist. In fact, she even cooperated with my kiss, not caring about Alan's gaze.
Alan's face turned ashen white.
But then, he laughed.
He laughed loudly with tears in his eyes like a madman. He laughed in despair and self-loathing about his fate.
"… Why Christine? I always loved you. I loved you more than anything. Why?"
Christine looked away and did not reply.
"Answer me! Answer me, Christine! Why!? TELL ME WHY!?"
"Why? Do you want to know why!?" Christine glared at Alan with an expression of hatred. "You loved me? Hahaha, what a joke! I trusted you, Alan! My family trusted you! We put our entire fate in your hands believing that you would reward our loyalty and service towards you!
"But how did you pay us!? You abandoned us! As soon as something went wrong, your family and you did not hesitate to throw my family away! Many of my relatives were killed, and the rest were sent to prison! That was our reward for our loyalty!"
"T-That is–"
"Shut up! You threw my family away to protect your interests, why then do you blame me for betraying you to save my family!? You don't have that right!"
Alan's face turned completely pale. He looked at his fiancée in a daze, unable to reply.
But eventually, he let out a soft and self-deprecating laugh.
"… Hahaha, yeah, maybe you are right… Just answer me something, did you do that with Claus?"
Christine looked at Alan coldly and sneered.
"I did. It felt great."
Alan's eyes became bloodshot.
He gritted his teeth and tightened his fist in rage and hatred before looking at me with the scariest gaze he could make.
"I will kill you, Claus."
"No, you won't, eldest brother." My voice became frigid. "You will never have that chance."
"Someday, you will pay."
"There is nobody in the universe that can make me pay. At the very least, I have not met him yet."
Alan shut up and just glared at me with as much resentment as he could muster.
I ignored it and walked towards him. In the end, he and I were enemies. If I would have lost, then I am sure I would have suffered a fate much worse.
When I reached in front of him, I materialized Reality Render in my hand and stared at him indifferently.
"Any last words?"
"See you in hell."
"Sorry. The devil is not strong enough to take my soul to that place."
Then, without waiting for his reply, I swung my sword.
When his head fell on the floor, his eyes were filled with hatred, resentment, and unwillingness.
That marked the end of my relationship with my eldest brother in this life.
