Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) -
Chapter 2815 The Royal Family's Reaction
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The urgent knocking on the door startled Gadel from his deep sleep. Since recovering from his illness, he and Princess Fiorenna had been enjoying their nights together. They had been working tirelessly to conceive a child, staying up until the early morning. It was not even eight o'clock yet.
"Your Highness, urgent news requires your immediate attention."
Gadel reluctantly put on his coat and went to the living room, still groggy from sleep. He sat on the couch, rubbing his eyes.
"What's the matter?"
"Matthew has killed General Weaver!"
Gadel, still half-asleep, yawned in response. "Isn't it normal for Matthew to kill people? If he killed him, he killed him. Wait, who did you say was killed?"
Tyga said gravely, "General Weaver!"
Gadel, now fully awake, sat up in shock. His drowsiness vanished instantly. "Are you sure?"
If Matthew had claimed to have wiped out the Keller Family, Gadel would not have been so surprised. However, General Weaver was a powerful aide to Toby. When Tyga first received the news, his reaction mirrored Gadel's. The news was too shocking.
"Yes, Matthew called a while ago, asking if we wanted to take over their territory. He mentioned that there were over five hundred prisoners left there."
"Take it. Why wouldn't we take it? Send someone over immediately and seize the territory as soon as possible."
Gadel had long desired to acquire General Weaver's territory. The bay was a crucial entry and exit point in the Montiria Sea. However, it had always been under the control of the Minister of Border Affairs, Zedran Flow, and Gadel had never been able to intervene. Now that such a golden opportunity had presented itself, he would not let it slip away.
Meanwhile, Matthew destroyed the communication equipment on the island before taking action, so Toby only received news of General Weaver's death close to evening. By the time he dispatched people to verify the truth, Gadel's troops had already occupied the island in the bay with nearly ten thousand soldiers under his name. With that in mind, Toby's men could only retrieve General Weaver's body and return. The news hit hard, causing Toby to slam the table and rise.
"Who gave Matthew the audacity to kill my Montiria's general? Summon my troops; I'm going to Seraphis to end Matthew's life by myself."
General Weaver was not only his powerful subordinate, but the island where he was stationed was also one of the important territories under his name. Prince Gadel had stationed his people there under the pretext of maintaining maritime security, and it was now impossible to reclaim it. The loss infuriated him to the point of dizziness and could only be cured by killing Matthew.
Seeing his furious state, Rocco immediately stood up to persuade him.
"Your Highness, please calm down. Currently, our relationship with Seraphis and Druira is tense. If we send many troops into Seraphis now, the conflict will likely escalate. It won't be as simple as killing Matthew."
As soon as these words were spoken, his anger subsided. Under the current circumstances, engaging in a war with either Seraphis or Druira would not be a wise choice. Furthermore, if he instigated a war between nations, the other princes and the citizens would not let him off the hook. He could not bear the weight of such a grave sin. However, if he let Matthew go, how could he face his other subordinates? His own man was killed, and he did nothing about it. Who would want to serve such a leader?
"Mr. Rocco, I cannot calm down unless I kill Matthew."
"Your Highness, instead of killing him, why not bring him to our side? After all, he has a powerful backer."
Rocco saw that Toby had calmed down and subtly mentioned Matthew's identity. If he had revealed his identity as the Summit Warden from the beginning, it would have cooled him down, but it would also have been a loss of dignity. When it came to matters of Montiria's level, it was different. Laying out the steps for the leader was what a capable confidant should do.
