The mysterious full moon hangs over the night, and the moon, known as Anilu, is an even more magnificent sight than Charlotte's previous life. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Aven was on the terrace of a manor, his hands propped up on the balustrade of the terrace, looking out at the lights of the city.

On the green ground of the manor, weary guards dragged the bodies of the thugs and carried them to the carts. In order to prevent the plague, they were transported to the cemetery to the west for cremation.

Edie leaned wearily against the wall not far from the terrace, silently guarding the future monarch. Since this morning, their team has suppressed a total of six mob dens, almost all of which bear traces of demon summoning.

Even if it is an iron-clad warrior, he has almost reached the limit of his physical strength at this moment.

He rubbed his eyes, and out of the corner of his eye noticed the shadow on the black wooden staircase. The accident startled him, and he realized that he had become so weak.

"Who!?" Edie yelled.

"Please don't be nervous, Master Edie. ”

The silver hair was meticulously combed into the back, and the butler in the elegant tuxedo raised his hands, "The contemptible people are here to report the latest situation to His Highness Aven. ”

"It's Abraham!" Edie breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly looked nervous, "What's the latest situation? Damn! Is there any bad news?"

"I'm afraid so. So, forgive me for retiring. ”

Abraham nodded slightly, and he passed Edie, who was sideways out of the way.

The butler walked across the master bedroom to the terrace, and when he approached Aven, he deliberately slowed his pace, and his weathered indifferent cheeks were now filled with respect from the heart.

"My lord, Abraham salutes you!"

He bowed deeply, but Aven, who was looking at the light, did not respond.

Aiwen's gaze seemed to penetrate the thousands of lights, looking at the invisible, illusory existence in the void.

"Master?" Abraham raised his voice.

Evan suddenly turned around and smiled apologetically, "It's Abraham, what's the matter?"

"Yes, master. Abraham bowed his head deeply, "Her Highness Charlotte has confirmed the true intentions of the Annihilation Society, and they want to perform a demon summoning ritual in the Lucerne Underground Zone. At this moment, His Highness is already in prison. ”

"What!" Evan paced back and forth, "I have to support Charlotte as soon as possible! I'll take my troops ...... right now."

He noticed the exhausted state of the soldiers on the lawn, and a stunned expression appeared on his handsome face.

"One more thing...... Abraham kept his head down, "it's not good for the contemptible people to do things, Princess Vivien Leigh has learned that Her Royal Highness Charlotte is in prison, and has led the Knights of the Rose to march into the underground area. ”

"What did you say!?"

Evan grabbed Abraham by the collar and uncharacteristically furious. The latter kept his head bowed, and remained humble in the face of the lord's wrath.

"The contemptible person is not in a good way, please ask the master to condemn the crime!"

"You're a ...... You're ......."

Avan was incoherent, and he angrily pushed Abraham away, and said astringently, "Enough! It's useless to say anything now!"

He strode out of the terrace and patted Edie cheered up, "Come along, let's go save Vivien Leigh and Charlotte!"

The night breeze blew on Abraham, leaving him as desolate as a lonely watchman.

From the wooden staircase came Aven's voice.

"Abraham, from now on, you will cooperate with Count Aubrey in the management of the manor guards. Listen, don't go out lightly without special circumstances! I don't want to see you make any more mistakes!"

"Yes, master!"

Even though he knew that Evan couldn't see, he bowed deeply with humility. He kept his head down as he watched Aven's back walk out of the manor.

His thoughts were flying, and he suddenly remembered a day many years ago.

At that time, he was attacked by political enemies, his business failed, and his family was ruined. In his darkest and most lost days, he abandoned the glory of nobility, got drunk like a drunkard all day long, and even had thoughts of self-destruction at one point.

As he stood in front of the abyss of despair, the man in his memory smiled gently and held out his hand to him.

"It's no big deal, look up, Abraham, don't be afraid, don't be sad, don't hesitate, if you can't see where you're going, then follow me!

At that moment, the man who sank was redeemed by that sentence......

Abraham stood in the night wind and clenched his fists.

"Mr. Butler is very disappointed, Your Highness. ”

Edie followed closely behind Aven, with no guards, no knights, and only the two of them walked through the night.

Edie noticed that Evan's mood was not right, and tried to put the information needed in a relaxed tone.

“…… I'm sorry, I'm not feeling the right thing. Aven's voice was ethereal, "If you think about it, Abraham shouldn't be the kind of person who does things casually, but I didn't even ask about the inside story, so I poured out my anger on him indiscriminately." It's my fault, Edie. ”

Edie scratched her cheek and turned her head in embarrassment.

"Well, I don't read much. But I think that as far as the superior is concerned, the necessary anger is deserved. No, it's better to say that His Highness Aven's temper is so good that some villains ...... you behind your back."

"Ah, of course!" I don't mean Mr. Butler, but ......," he explained at once.

"I know that some nobles are dissatisfied with me. Because of my talent, my character...... Erosa didn't need a warm-hearted archduke, they needed an iron-blooded leader who could lead them to victory. ”

There was self-deprecation in Aven's voice, "At this point, Vivien Leigh and even Charlotte are more perfect than me!"

Edie was speechless.

"In fact, I don't care about the so-called status of the Grand Duke at all. Once upon a time, it was like a mantra to me rather than a title of glory. I envy Charlotte, his free-spirited lifestyle, and his courage to say no out loud!"

Listening to Evan's words, Edie lowered her head.

"But! I don't want to back down now! I want the Grand Duke more than anyone else! Not for illusory glory and power, but for the treasure of my heart!"

Evan's voice was deep and powerful, the first time Edie had heard her sovereign pour out. This made him hold the hilt of the sword in his hand with boiling blood!

Let me transform this sword and protect the ideals of His Highness!

Evan stopped, and he turned his head, his eyes shining.

"Can I trust you? Edie!"

Kneeling on one knee, Edie bowed his head with his sword in hand, "Yes! I am your sharpest sword, your strongest shield!"

"Well, come along, Edie, and let you see me at its realest!"

Before they knew it, the two had walked to a hidden manor, and Evan turned and pushed open the gate of the manor.

Dressed in white robes, the mages with a starry sky drawing on the left chest of their mage robes bent down and bowed.

"Compatriot Aven, is it time for us to intervene?" someone asked.

In Edie's astonished gaze, Aven took a step forward and returned with the most formal mage salute.

"Fellow citizens of Sky City, loyal followers of the Lord of the Stars, lend me your power!" Evan called out in a loud voice, "As a disciple of the Lord of the Stars, I ask you to spread the prestige of the Lord of the Stars!"

"Where the stars are, is ahead!"

The mages shouted in unison!
