It was the voice of the Calamity.

Charlotte opened her mouth in surprise, the reason for her surprise was naturally not the arrival of the Calamity Witch. In fact, before the raid, they had imagined a variety of scenarios, including what to do when they faced the witch after being successfully delayed by Aven.

What surprised him was that the witch's voice came from the direction they had come. In other words, the witch did not enter the spiral staircase from the plaza under the spiral staircase, but from the torture chamber above.

- Am I wrong? Evan let the witch lurk in the area of Fort Sava?

Charlotte looked at Aven, who had fallen on the rest platform of the spiral staircase like a dumpling, but she also saw surprise in his eyes. The two brothers, who were hostile to each other, looked at each other, and their faces changed.

"Aren't I welcome to participate?" said the witch's voice with smugness and malice, "then I think you'll at least welcome them." ”

"Charlotte!"

Charlotte looked into the darkness, the vision of the Vientiane Eye allowing him to see clearly in the dim staircase. The witch spun around and descended from the top of the spiral staircase, dressed in a backless evening gown, as graceful as if she had just attended a banquet.

The sound of bells on ankles echoes crisply in the darkness, but in such an environment it is only eerie. Behind her were two women, following the witch as if they were being held up by an invisible hand. One of them was elegant and noble, still wearing the elaborate gown of the banquet, and the other seemed to be a little wounded, her blonde hair covering the side of her unconscious face, she was dressed in the thin clothes of indoor movement, and her slender legs were very eye-catching in the dark.

The witch paused in the stairway directly above, the flickering dragon head sword in her hand, her lips upturned, and she looked at Charlotte with a victor's smile in malice.

"Mom, Vivien Leigh!" Charlotte called out the names of the two girls with an ugly expression.

Claire, who had been calm, could no longer restrain his anger, he grabbed Evan, who was bound by the shadow energy, and roared in a low voice, "What have you done!?

Evan glared at Claire angrily, but it didn't take long for Claire to know that the anger wasn't directed at him. Because Evan quickly turned his head and yelled at the witch in a commanding tone, "Let them go! I told you not to hurt my relatives in the castle!"

The witch frowned ugly, and although she didn't want to admit it, the witch with Eleni's peerless face still did not lose her charm even if she showed a sullen and angry expression.

The blue pupils showed a dangerous look like a beast, but soon, she tried her best to suppress herself, pinched her sign like a wife arguing with her husband, and said very quickly, "Let them go? Are you stupid? Lu Sien! I'm helping you, they're hostages!"

She turned her head to look at Charlotte, and this time the anger was no longer endured, but she shouted like a lurking beast, "Let go of my Lusen, you damn thief, if you don't want something to happen to them!"

Rebecca, who was in good spirits, suddenly asked, "Who is she?" Aven, tell me who she is?"

Evan looked away in shame, but still emphasized, "I said let them go, it's between me and Charlotte, and it has nothing to do with them!"

"Fool!" the witch looked furious, glaring at Charlotte as she seemed to regard him as the source of the disaster, "Let go of Lusen!"

Before Charlotte could make a move, Neam grabbed his hand, "Can't let it go! Calm down! Charlotte, if you let it go, it's all over!"

Charlotte looked at Neem, then Claire, Kathryn, and Nancy, who had been pale since the witch appeared. He knew that Neam was right, and if Aven was released, it was likely that everyone present would die.

Evan has limited control over the witch, and even if Charlotte, Vivien Leigh, and Rebecca can save their lives, the rest ...... Those who are desperate to help themselves because of their own requests will die because of their own misjudgments.

His decision was not as simple as giving up, and while giving up the victory, it also meant that he gave up the lives of those present.

Both he and Evan miscalculated the witch's actions, and Charlotte was annoyed by her own imprudentness and forced herself to calm down and make the right judgment.

He took a deep breath and suddenly pulled out the dagger from his leg, pressing it down on Aven's neck and placing it across the latter's throat. Ai Wen was slightly stunned at first, and then showed a smile that seemed to mock and despair.

"I won't say anything about it. But in your eyes, these people's lives are more important than Vivien Leigh and mother, right?" Evan sneered, "What a Charlotte with unparalleled love!"

"Shut up!" growled Charlotte, "I wouldn't have made it this far if it weren't for you! You know what responsibility is! I brought them here, and I had to take them back!"

Evan sneered and closed his eyes, Charlotte turned to the witch and yelled, "Let them go! I give one last order, let them go! Otherwise, I will kill Evan and make him a sacrifice, and I will return to the throne!

"Charlotte!" Rebecca only shouted, but as if she thought of something, she closed her eyes sadly, "I'm sorry......"

The sound of the quarrel woke up Vivien Leigh, who had fallen into a coma, and she first looked around blankly, and immediately struggled when she noticed the witch in front of her, "Your Highness Sylvia, why are you sneaking up on me!?"

She confuses witches with Sylvia.

"Shut up!" the witch scolded coldly, holding her holy sword against her neck, "stealing my sword and Lu Sien, you are also a damn thief!"

"Vivien Leigh!" shouted Nancy, Kathryn, and Claire in unison.

"Let her go——!!!" Charlotte roared again, this time the dagger sliced open the skin on Evan's neck, causing the superficial wound that had only only a red line to seep blood again, "If you don't do what I say, I guarantee the consequences will be a hundred times worse than you think!"

"Xia, Charlotte, Brother Aven!" Fei Wenli noticed the situation in the spiral staircase, "Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? Did you fall out with Her Highness Sylvia? Why did you want to attack Brother Aven?"

"She's not Sylvia!" Rebecca said suddenly, "Vivien Leigh, stop talking! ”

Charlotte was like a drowning man grasping at the only straw, "I'll say it one last time! Let her go, three!"

"Let her go!" Nancy nervously persuaded, "Your Majesty!

"Two!"

"Vivien Leigh, Vivien Leigh, Vivien Leigh! Do you all care only about this good-for-nothing little girl?!"

"One!"

"Mingming, Mingming! I'm Alini—"

"Don't-"

Aven, Charlotte, Nancy, Kathryn, Claire, Rebecca...... Everyone held out their hands to Vivien Leigh in disbelief.

The dagger landed.

At the same time, the uncertain holy sword and the severed head of Vivien Leigh fell!
