Gard grabbed Agnes as she tried to sneak away. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"You can't go anywhere. He said, "You have to come with me to my father and Moira." ”

“...... Are you going to let me bear my father's wrath with you?" Agnes glared at him, "something without conscience...... I just saved your life!"

Guardian's face flushed with embarrassment, but his hands did not relax at all.

"I'll tell my father that you saved me. "But you know what the real problem is." ”

“...... So you're trying to use me to deflect my father's anger. Agnes accused, "Shameless! Why didn't I just let you die at the hands of that madman!"

The young knight unconsciously looked at Ed and Is, who were silently standing aside, and his face turned even redder, but he did not give up his insistence.

"You have to come with me. He said, "We swore by it...... After Ogden's death, we swore that we would have no secrets from each other, and that we would face each other no matter what...... I don't care how many men you've dated and I don't want to know, but it's different!"

The name of the dead brother finally made Agnes's face change slightly.

“...... Well, I see what you mean. Her tone softened, "But you see, Father and Moira already have enough things to worry about, at least for today, let them breathe a sigh of relief for your safety, and stop them worrying about other things, okay?"

Guardian hesitated slightly.

"I'll tell them -- I'll tell you, all of it, and there's nothing to hide anymore. Agnes assured him, "But you'll have to give me a little time...... Give them a little time, okay?"

She took the opportunity to pull out her arm in Guardian's hesitation, and turned her head to raise an eyebrow at Ed.

"I'm not a talkative person. She stroked her lips and smiled lightly, "I guess neither are you?"

Ed smiled and said nothing.

Agnes straightened her long, messy hair, turned and disappeared into the darkness. Guardian stared at her back in a daze, and suddenly fell into a deep depression.

He had always felt strong enough, no longer the smallest and most protective one in the family, and even strong enough to replace Ogden...... That's probably just an illusion brought about by the growth of the body.

Like what...... He now has little courage to face his father.

.

Carlos Sr., who had become a duke, was not as angry as Guardian had expected, after all, his son was not dead...... And the life and death of another person seem to be more important.

"So he's really not dead. He said, "Ante Bofford...... What kind of monster did he become?"

Moira glanced at her father with a complicated expression.

"He's clearly not a pure undead...... But it's not a living person either. Ed spoke softly, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't give you a satisfactory answer right now, but I'll do my best to find out." ”

“...... And this was not your responsibility in the first place, including the rescue of my son. The Duke nodded to Ed, "I should thank you for that." ”

"That place. Moira began, "Can't you destroy it completely?"

Today it is the Gard who "strayed into it", tomorrow it could be Frederick...... She was fed up with such fears. Even though Ed had resealed the entrance, she had ordered the craftsmen to rebuild a new wall outside the wall under the pretext of repairing it...... She still felt uneasy.

Ed hesitated.

"That place ......," he said, "to be precise, it doesn't exist in Lockburg, it's just connected to Lockburg in some way...... It is connected to almost the entire Stonebutch. Like the three-storied tower, we don't know how destroying it will affect the city, so it's probably best not to act rashly. ”

Walter sighed softly.

"Maybe we should really abandon this cursed city...... "and rebuild the royal city in another place." ”

Ed was willing to put his feet up in agreement. He suspects that Tonbutch will soon turn into a terrifying battleground...... But he also knew that even if he started planning now, it would probably be too late to move everyone out of the city - he would have to find another way.

"The land that the king gave to Garder...... I think it's a good place. Walter leaned over to his daughter, "What do you think?"

Moira was silent for a long time, but did not nod.

"We'll have to find some time to discuss this. She said, "We ...... Including Frederick. ”

The city, this fortress, may have been stained with too much darkness, but a king...... Should it really be left behind at such a time?

At least for now, she can't make a decision.

She tried to send her father and Ed away with a smile, but left Guardian, who had remained silent.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me?" she asked.

.

Agnes threw the comb on the table, opened each drawer, glanced at the jewels inside, and closed it in annoyance.

She figured she should pack up and leave as soon as possible - she couldn't expect that fellow Guardian to really keep a secret. And she couldn't tell her father and Moira about "everything...... She had done so many unforgivable things, and she could never accept the look in their eyes when they learned the truth.

She had to leave...... But where can she go?

She sat in front of the mirror in a daze, until there was a knock on the door.

The visitor opened the door without her permission - and she didn't need her permission either. This is her castle...... This is her country.

Agnes ...... We need to talk. Moira whispered.

Before the wooden door closed, Agnes caught a glimpse of the guard outside the door—it was Moira's guard.

If she really wanted to leave, the clumsy knights couldn't stop her.

"What do you want to talk about?"

Agnes picked up her comb and lazily brushed her hair: "I heard that the fool of Gard has been recovered? ”

"Yes. Moira's tone was calm, "He also told me something. ”

Agnes was silent for a moment, trying to make a final struggle: "Are you sure what he told you wasn't the hallucinations he was scared of?"

“...... You know our brother isn't going to be useless to this point. Moira sighed, "And I don't need him to tell me anything...... Do you think I'm really going to know nothing? Agnes, you've protected me and June under Aaron Mansini's spells - how blind or stupid do you think I have to be to turn a blind eye?"
