SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

Zenit wasted no time carrying out the task Amber gave him. He moved his personal guards to immediately look into the matter, and in less than an hour, everything was set up.

The culprits were captured and chained up in the center of the city, and then it was announced all around that five elves would be executed in an hour's time. Enjoy exclusive adventures from empire

This was something that had not been seen in years, so when people heard about it, it caused a massive fuss in the city, so much so that even Silva got to hear about it.

Gabriel ran into the room and showed a flyer about the execution.

"Silva, look at this. Five people are about to be executed in the center of the city," he said, handing the flyer to Silva.

Silva took it and looked at it. The images of the people that attacked him were all there, and that was when Silva realized Amber had gone wild when she arrived at the mayor's house.

"Amber, she must have been really pissed off. I should find her and talk to her," Silva said, got up, and left the room.

He immediately headed for Amber's room.

Knock knock. Silva knocked on the door twice and then walked in. Amber was seated on the bed, looking out the window.

"It was me. I know you want to ask. They deserve death, after all," Amber said.

"I know it's you, and I don't want to tell you anything or make you feel bad, but I want to thank you. You stood up for me and even went to the extreme of making sure they get killed," Silva said and hugged her.

Amber was taken off guard. She didn't expect Silva to just hug her, but she would not let this opportunity go to waste. She hugged him back immediately and leaned her head on his shoulder.

"You came to my home for the first time. There is no way I'd allow some elf to disrespect you and go scot-free.

If it were left to me, this whole city would burn for even touching you," Amber said.

At this point, Silva realized something: he had underestimated Amber's feelings for him. It had reached the point where she would forsake her people for him.

This led him to think: was there a point in him using backhanded methods to get information from the elves? He had her, and if she loved him this much, she would willingly give it to him.

Silva pulled back from their hug and looked her straight in the eyes.

"Amber, you understand that I am always going to have enemies, right? Even amongst the elves, so they will always be against me.

I have a habit of making countermeasures before the time for using them, so what I'm saying is I'll need your help to gather as much information from your people—the elves—to be able to defend myself.

I know this is a lot to ask of you, and if you can't do it, I completely understand, and I'll not disturb you about it—"

She placed her finger on Silva's lips.

"You aren't. Don't worry. I'll follow you wherever you go, and I'll help you do whatever you want to. Even if you tell me to forsake the whole elf kingdom, I would. After all, I can't allow the others to get ahead of me. You are mine," Amber said.

"Then I have nothing to worry about. Thank you, Amber," Silva said and hugged her again.

The time for the execution came, and people trooped into the city center in huge numbers. Soon the place was crowded, and there was no movement space at all.

A massive platform had been set at the center, made purely out of wood, so that it could be taken down after what was about to happen.

Five wooden beams were erected on the platform, made to be ten feet tall so that whoever was tied to them would not be able to remove their arms.

Tied to the beams were the five people about to be executed. They looked battered and completely broken.

One could tell that they had gone through a lot of beatings before being put here. Some people held disgust for them, some held sadness, and some didn't have any emotions towards them.

Silva, Amber, Drake, Lily, and Gabriel made their way to the place, and they saw the people tied up who were about to die.

"Crimes worthy of death are rare already, but those that are worthy of public execution are far rarer," Gabriel said. "It takes committing something unforgivable to get this type of death.

There are a few things I can think of, though I don't know how the elf system works. I've not had the chance to carry out any missions here," Gabriel said.

"It's simple, Gabriel. They made a move against Silva, which means they made a move against me," Amber said.

"Wait, what?" Gabriel asked in shock. If what she said was true, then it made sense. Disrespecting someone of Amber's status would surely call for death.

After hearing that, their treatment didn't seem so bad. In fact, he would say they were rushing the whole thing. If the emperor of the human empire was disrespected, or his child, Gabriel knew how much torture the offender would go through before being killed.

After minutes of waiting, the mayor and the executioner came up. The executioner was a well-built elf wearing only black pants. He had flowing silver hair that reached his back, and his skin was tanned.

"Today, we say goodbye to these five men. They are brothers and children, but they did something unforgivable, and as such, their lives will be taken in compensation.

These five disrespected and caused harm to the princess, daughter of the emperor, heir to the world tree, and demon king candidate.

There is no more unforgivable sin than that, and today they shall all be punished, and their lives will suffice," the mayor said and stepped back.

Two guards climbed up and immediately loosened the first man from his beam.
