Chapter 272: Chapter 56: Truth, Treating Every Creature Equally

The battle ended somewhat anticlimactically, but the outcome was all too clear.

The last hope of the Fire Lizard Clan, the Fire Lizard King Morick, had been defeated.

At the mouth of the mineshaft, the miners called up by Lord Richard had despondent expressions. They knew that the Fire Lizard Clan had completely lost all hope.

Standing to the side, Richard watched the scene and nodded imperceptibly.

“Herar, what are you doing!”

Upon seeing this, the surrounding Fire Lizards immediately moved to stop the young one from his folly. But before they could lay a hand on him, they saw Herar’s body freeze in place, immobile, as a chain of Magic Power burrowed out from under his feet, binding him so that he could not move.

The Fire Lizards looked toward Richard, just as Richard silently retracted his finger, speaking in a calm tone,

“Suicide is really quite foolish.

I told you when I took you in to abandon those impractical fantasies and strive to live well in the present.

Clearly, some of you did not pay heed to my words.”

The Fire Lizards silently turned their gaze toward Richard, who reminded them of the words he had said when he first brought them to the mining fields.

“Work hard here, give up on impractical fantasies. Working for me will certainly be ten times better than working under the hand of Fire Lizard Nobles.”

Back then, they had brushed off his words as inconsequential.
