Beast King's Crippled Mate-Chapter 299: I can’t wait to make him mine

Aria watched as the poisonous fog started seeping inside everyone’s home. She used her vision to watch how people started inhaling the poison and died instantly. It was a quick and painless way to die, which wasn’t Aria’s style as she preferred torturous death, but this would save her some time because massive reanimation and turning them all into undead would take a long time for Aria. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

’And I still have to make sure their bodies stay intact until I can finish their reanimation. Decaying undead will not be useful,’ Aria thought as she calculated everything inside her head.

Once these humans were successfully reanimated into undead, their bodies wouldn’t decay until Aria let go of her spell and made them truly dead. Until that time, the decaying process would still continue.

As everyone in the palace began to fall, the delegate from the Kingdom of Beastman, who happened to be a bird beastman, realized something was wrong. He quickly shifted into his bird form and flew out of the window, heading to the Kingdom of Beastman to report the abnormality in the Holy Achate.

’That beastman is slipping out, little witch,’ Madam Harsetti warned.

Aria followed the falcon, who was heading toward the Kingdom of Beastman. She pointed her finger and chanted a spell before shooting a purple beam into the falcon’s body.

The falcon continued flying for a second before he suddenly turned around and flew towards Aria.

Aria grinned as she saw that her brainwashing worked on beastmen. True, she couldn’t just kill them and reanimate them into a bunch of undead, but brainwashing them was easy.

’Beastmen are also more useful brainwashed alive than being reanimated. They are naturally simple creatures, so it’s easy to put them into hypnosis or mind control,’ Madam Harsetti said.

Aria smirked. She stared at the falcon and ordered, "Go back to the palace and send a letter. Tell the Kingdom of Beastmen that everything is fine. This will buy us more time. We can’t afford to alert Gale about my move so early."

’Smart,’ Madam Harsetti giggled. ’As expected, you are truly talented at this.’

’I was the Royal Princess before Swan ruined everything, Madam. Things like this are what I learned from my days studying with various tutors,’ Aria replied. ’Now, I will continue spreading the poisonous gas around other kingdoms as well. I’ll just target the big cities. There’s no point in using so much energy to catch small fishes.’

’It’s more efficient, yes. However, you should at least spare some of the people in this continent, or else there’s no point in ruling over an absolutely barren land, right?’ Madam Harsetti suggested, and Aria nodded as she agreed to that.

’Of course, I’d want to rule the world with Gale and our offspring,’ Aria said. She licked her lips as she had often imagined Gale’s rock-hard dick, which must be huge, ramming inside her and making her pregnant. ’Oh, I can’t wait to make him mine.’

The situation in the Kingdom of Beastmen was grim. Blaze was the one who resumed the responsibility of governing since he was His Majesty’s beta, and he tried his best to handle everything.

He had learned many things about governing from observing His Majesty and the Queen. He also learned it formally as he was obliged to take a course, so he was knowledgeable about the kingdom’s matters.

Yet, even with all his knowledge, he still lacked one thing—charisma.

Both the Beast King and Queen Swan had the charisma that made others follow them faithfully. Blaze didn’t have that, and one argument after another broke out in the throne room so often.

Sometimes, they would start having a physical fight, and the winner would be the one whose suggestion, idea, or request would be granted.

It was really wrong, of course, because their Queen was a very wise woman. She would be able to handle these problems without resorting to violence.

But when the Queen wasn’t here, the beastmen would only respect the strongest, and since the Beast King wasn’t here, they only respected the winner of their physical duel.

’This is bad. If this keeps going on, the Kingdom of Beastmen will turn into an absolute shithole full of barbarians fighting against each other,’ Blaze thought. ’Should I ask His Majesty to come back and rule again? I’m sure everything will settle down after his return, though to make the kingdom prosperous again, we still need Her Majesty...’

A year and a half had passed since the Beast King lost his mate, so Blaze thought that he could finally let go of her.

But when he remembered the despair and defeat that the Beast King showed, Blaze realized there was no point in trying to beg for His Majesty’s return.

’He needs more time. I don’t think he cares about the kingdom when he’s so heartbroken,’ Blaze sighed and continued handling everything in the throne room.

As he got busy reading a few reports, a squirrel scout beastman rushed in with a face full of terror, "Blaze, something’s wrong!"

Blaze frowned. It was rare for the scouts to panic since they had seen too many horrible things as their work demanded them to.

"What is it?" Blaze asked. "Is it about His Majesty?"

"N-no, it’s about the boar tribe that I surveyed constantly. They are acting weird!"

"Make it clear, will you? I don’t understand what you are saying. What do you mean by acting weird?"

The squirrel scout was also trying to find the right word for it because what he saw was too unbelievable to describe.

"I-I saw all of the beastmen in that boar tribe standing still like a statue, then they grabbed whatever weapons they could get and started marching towards the Kingdom of Beastmen’s direction like a bunch of soldiers!" the squirrel scout reported. "I tried asking one of them about this, but they acted like statues. They don’t respond at all, and when I try to grab one of them, he simply throws me away and continues marching!"
