In the end, the decision was tough for her. She hated Azekiel. She wanted to kill him.
Fortunately, instead of thinking with her heart, she decided to go with her brain. "I will help you. But after you are done, you will forever leave this place and will never involve yourself in the business of the Triad Clan?"
"I promise. But at the same time, you shall also promise that the Triad Clan will never trouble Orcs either. No matter what, they helped me! And it's only fair that I help them as well. If you break the promise, my promise will be invalid as well, and I will return!"
Azekiel took Leor's offer, also placing his own terms and conditions ahead.
Leor also agreed to his terms. The Triad Clan was willing to forgive the Orcs and never trouble them again in exchange for peace.
And thus, a deal was reached.
"Come with me. I'll take you to the Triad Domain, and we will also help you take down Liam and his men." She wanted to be done with it as fast as she could. The Orcs can't come. Only you!"
She felt that Azekiel and her Triads were enough to take out Liam. They didn't need to bring those Orcs with them. She also didn't want to stay as a servant for a single second longer. If all it took was to kill Liam, she was willing to do it.
The Orcs were instructed to go back to the Village and to not worry about any war anymore. Their village was safe.
Only Azekiel and his team of ten Lord of Sins followed Leor back to her domain.
*****
Leor brought everyone to the entrance of her Domain. From that point on, only she could move ahead. If anyone other than a Triad wanted to pass through, they needed the permission of the Queen.
Fortunately, it was the Queen who was escorting them herself. They didn't need to worry about anything. All the Lords were able to enter the Domain of the Triads, passing through the mystical barrier that kept the Domain hidden.
From the outside, nothing could be seen other than an ordinary forest like all the other places. It was only after one passed through the barrier that they saw what the Triad Domain was actually like.
"It is so beautiful," One of the Lords complimented. The Domain was so beautiful that even they were surprised.
This place wasn't like any forest outside. There were trees that were nothing like they had ever seen before. There were also many beautiful plants all throughout the Domain. The trees here were at least ten times taller than the Trees outside. Moreover, the trees also looked to be filled with life.
They could even hear some trees welcoming them. The sound of some trees singing also fell in their ears.
Not too far away, a beautiful castle was available. The majestic castle was the place where the Triad Queen lived. That was also the place where the guests were staying.
As soon as Leor entered her domain, she sent a command to all the Orcs. Inside the Domain, she was able to contact them even from a distance.
She informed all the Triads to surround the castle and to capture all the guests.
Even though the Triads didn't understand why they had to capture the people who were their guests, they listened to the commands.
All the Lords who were sleeping were captured and taken through the night. Their hands were tied, and so was their mouth.
Some Triads also entered the room where Liam was sleeping to capture him. After all the Lords were captured, only he was left in the night.
As soon as the Triads entered the room, Liam lazily opened his eyes. "You're back?"
He had been waiting for the Triad Queen to return for quite some time. When someone entered the room at this late hour, he first thought that she was back, but he soon realized that he was wrong when a Vine tied his hands, his legs, and closed his mouth.
He couldn't even use his System now that his hands and his mouth were tied. Surprisingly, it was also Azekiel's idea.
He knew what was needed to use the system and the skills, and he made sure that Liam couldn't do it.
With one stroke, he had captured Liam, even though it was through someone else's help.
As long as it reduced the amount of work he needed to do, he was fine with it. Through this, Leor also got to learn that this was how they could take a King down. It was comparatively easier than she expected. Unfortunately, it was too late now. If she had known before, maybe she would have won against Azekiel, but not anymore.
Azekiel was led inside the Triad Castle like a royalty. Leor also carried her sister in her hand.
She lied to her people that her sister died because of schemes from Liam. Through v that, she justified what she was doing. And this was also the only way she could think of to make sure that the Triads didn't burn in flames of revenge.
She also didn't want them to know that she was helping the killers of her sister since she was sure they wouldn't understand. She made her look like a savior while blaming everything on Liam. With Liam's death, all the rage inside the Triads was going to die as well.
As for Orcs, she could also claim that it was Liam who made it look like the Orcs were against them. It was also supposed to be a part of his scheme.
She covered all her bases for the future, even though she felt bad for lying to her people. It was for their own good.
All the captured Lords were shifted to the main hall, along with Liam. The majestic hall was surrounded by the strongest of the Triad Warriors, all of whom were waiting to rip Liam to shreds for what he did to their Queen.
After they trusted him and treated him like a guest, he betrayed them. That's what made them hate him even more.
Liam still didn't understand why it was happening out of nowhere. Everything was going so well until a few hours ago. He was in bed with the Triad Queen, having fun. And now, he was on the floor, tied? Why?
He kept struggling to free his hands or his mouth so he could at least fight back.
The doors of the hall opened, and Leor walked inside.
"Mmmm!" Liam's eyes opened wide, seeing just who had entered! His face went pale at the sight of Azekiel!
