Chapter 2559
The First Heir
Philip, Fennel, and Steven gave the high and mighty Louis XXVI a thorough beating!
The youngest duke of Counter had lost his entire noble image and fell to the ground wretchedly. He
covered his head and shouted desperately.
âOw, f*ck, stop! Iâm Duke Louis XXVI! Steven, you damned viscount! This is insubordination! Youâre
finished! Your Smith family is finished!â
Louis XXVI roared. âI must return and tell the Queen about this! I want the Queen to revoke the noble
rights of your Smith family!â
âLouis XXVI, you b*stard, how dare you threaten me? Iâll kick you to death!â Steven was furious.
Once he started, he could not stop. He lifted his foot and kicked Louis XXVI, who was lying on the
ground covering his head. He cursed, âDo you want to complain about me? Do you think the Smith
family can be messed with?â
In the face of Stevenâs ferocity, the onlookers erupted in discussions.
âOh my, what did I see?â
âSteven is so scary. He even dares to beat Duke Louis?â
âItâs over! The consequences are very serious for a Viscount to beat a duke!â
However, Philip and the others did not seem to care about the discussions around them.
Steven got tired and stopped his punching and kicking. He looked coldly at Louis, who looked
miserable on the floor.
Alice recovered from her shock and hurriedly stepped forward to help Louis, whose face was all
swollen. She supported him up from the floor and asked with concern, âLouis, are you alright? Oh, my
dear Louis, just look at your face!â
Alice was heartbroken. She turned her head and stared angrily at Steven, pointing at his nose and
cursing, âSteven, how dare you?! Youâre just a viscount, but you assaulted Louis in public! Heâs a duke!
Youâ re finished! Your Smith family is finished too!â
Steven looked at Alice and said coldly, âAlice, stop pointing fingers at me. From today onward, I wonât
court you anymore, so please show me some respect! The Smith family had a duke once, and my
father is now a marquis! Heâll be promoted to a duke next month!â
âW-What do you mean?â Alice was a little flustered and did not understand what Steven meant.
Steven smiled coldly, bowed slightly to Alice, and said, âIt means nothing. I just hope you can watch
your steps in the future.â
After saying that, Steven turned his head and was about to leave.
Philip and Fennel also smiled and followed suit. However, Louis could not let go of these vicious thugs
so easily after being beaten. He immediately shouted, âStop! Stand right there, Steven! And you two
stupid and lowly Easterners! Beating the duke is a capital offense! Donât even try to run away!â
With that said, a group of the dukeâs personal guards rushed over from a distance. These guards were
dressed in silver attire with golden stripes on their shoulders and chests. They wore customized
knightâs helmets of the dukeâs personal guards on their heads. They were also equipped with gold and
white knight swords around their waists.
Clang!
A group of ten people surrounded Philip and the others and drew their swords from their waists.
The atmosphere changed suddenly.
Louis XXVI sneered at Steven and the others who were surrounded and said arrogantly, âYou want to
run, huh? My personal guards have arrived, so letâs see how you can run! How dare you assault the
duke? I want all of you dead!â
After saying that, Louis XXVI waved his hand and shouted, âTake them down and bring them back to
Country Y. I want to torture them myself!â
In an instant, the ten personal guards stepped forward to take down Philip and the rest. However, Philip
and Fennel exchanged a glance and shook their heads helplessly.
Biff! Bang! Thud!
In less than a minute, these ten guards were beaten to a pulp.
Louis XXVI was dumbfounded with fear as he looked at all the guards around him wailing on the
ground. Then, he saw Philip walking toward him with a long knightâs sword. His face turned pale with
fright.
âY-You damned Easterner, what do you want to do?â Louis shouted while he staggered back for fear
that Philip would stab him to death with the sword in his hand.
Philip coldly looked at Louis, who was scared out of his wits at this moment. He raised the silver sword
in his hand and placed it against Louisâ neck. The sharp tip of the sword made a small cut on Louisâ
neck and blood seeped out. Louis was so terrified that he almost knelt and begged for mercy.
âDuke Louis, I hope you can go back and read up about the East. Stop making insults at every turn.
Perhaps in the eyes of the East, youâre the inferior one.â
Philip said coldly. With a flash of the knightâs sword in his hand, he slashed Louisâ clothes and pants.
Whoa!
In an instant, Louis stood exposed in his underwear! It was immediately followed by a burst of mocking
laughter. Although many people knew that Louis XXVI was a duke and could not be messed with
easily, the comical and embarrassed look as he scrambled to pick up his pants made it hard for them to
remain calm.
Amid everyoneâs jeers, Louis stared angrily at the departing backs of Philip and the others with his
pants in his hand. He roared, âF*ck! I wonât let you off! I definitely wonât!â
Then, he ran to his car in a panic and left the place with Alice.
Philip and the others walked into the castle. In the middle was a huge open-air pool party that was
brightly lit. Countless hot and sexy girls walked around. Their swaying bodies and shimmering figures
in the waves stimulated the hearts.
Steven stopped abruptly, looked at Philip and Fennel seriously, and said, âThank you, Young Patriarch
Clarke, Lord Apollo. Iâ¦â
Philip put his hands in his trouser pockets and said with a smile, âSteven, if youâre a little less business-
minded, we can actually be friends.â
Heating this, Stevenâs eyes lit up as he looked at Philip and said, âYoung Patriarch Clarke, are you
really willing to be friends with me?â
Philip shrugged and said, âWhy not? Friends should be treated with sincerity. Steven, I hope you wonât
let me down.â
Steven frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, âYoung Patriarch Clarke, donât worry. Iâll show
you my sincerity.â
After speaking, he turned around and walked to the corner. He took out his phone, dialed a number,
and muttered into it. Then, he returned to Philip and Fennelâs side. He said, âMy sincerity will be here
soon. I hope youâll like it.â
Philip looked at Steven, patted his shoulder, and said, âSteven, just call me Philip from now on.â
