"Boom, boom—"

There was an unusually loud noise outside. It's like a swarm of hornets buzzing in your ears, irritating your eardrums.

Ellie, who was asleep, frowned at the noise, and the noisy sound outside made her unable to continue to sleep well, she sat up lazily, rubbed her eyes in a daze, and said vaguely: "It's noisy." ”

"Your Royal Highness, Princess, you're awake." I got dressed and just walked out of the tent. A familiar voice rang in my ears, it was Ji'er, who was standing outside Ellie's tent and had been waiting for a long time.

"It's Ji'er, what's going on outside?"

"It's General Doles attacking the city of Deya. Ay? Her Royal Highness, Princess—"

……

"Princess...... Your Royal Highness, Princess, you ...... You haven't had breakfast yet......"

On the hillside, a panting Ji'er finally catches up with Ellie, who hurries out when she says that she will attack Deya City. At this time, Ellie stood quietly on the edge of the cliff and did not reply to Ji'er's words. She looked at the city of Deya in the distance. This is not a spectacular city, the gates have been violently destroyed, the fragments of the city gates are scattered everywhere, thick black smoke rises from the city walls, and several soldiers who defend the city hang silently on the city walls, as if they were corpses, killed in battle to defend their country. A large number of Bradas soldiers poured into the city, and in less than half an hour, the city would become a trophy of the Bradas Empire.

Fiona's sister's army won, but Ellie was not happy at all, not because she knew that this would be the result, but because she knew what it meant to break the city, and she only hoped that her sister would be kind to the people in the city.

"Your Highness the Princess." Ji'er stood behind the girl and cried out a little worriedly.

"I'm fine, let's go."

Ellie said something in a strange voice, leaving from the edge of the cliff, and Ji'er clearly saw that Her Royal Highness the princess had two tear stains on her face.

The following day, Ellie rode into the Lord's Mansion in Deja City, which had been occupied by Bradas and was used as a temporary palace, in the carriage that Mia had prepared for her. Her sisters did not see her again, and she tried to go to them, but was stopped by the guards, who told her that Fiona and Mia were discussing state affairs and that no one was allowed to approach.

Ellie had to go back to her room, fortunately it wasn't lonely to have Ji'er with her, but the girl was always a little uneasy in her heart.

"Ji'er, let's go out for a walk." Ellie called Ji'er and told her.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, Lord Mia has instructed that it is dangerous outside, and you will not be allowed to go out."

After Ji'er finished speaking, she only heard a buzz, and saw a sword appear in Ellie's hand, the sword flashed with dazzling white light, and then waved her hand and pulled a few beautiful sword flowers, and Ji'er couldn't open her eyes, and then Ellie let go of her hand, and the lightsaber turned into starlight and disappeared.

"Don't worry, I'm pretty good."

"This ......" Ji'er was also a little hesitant, although she didn't know magic, but seeing the princess easily conjure up a sword still made her feel very convinced, Ji'er, who had never studied magic, instantly felt that Her Royal Highness the princess was so powerful. But Mia-sama's words were still ringing in her ears, and for a moment, the little maid was a little entangled.

"It's okay, let's just sneak out." Ellie pulled Ji'er, who was still hesitating, and ran out of the room.

The two came to the side door and stood at the door, Ellie and Ji'er looked around, there were no guards here, and it was safe. But before we go out, there's one more thing to say.

"After we go out, Ji'er won't call me princess, just call me Ellie, you know?" Before going out, Ellie told Ji'er.

"Yes, princess...... No...... Miss Ellie. When she looked at Ellie's rather "majestic" eyes, Ji'er, who was called Shunkou, hurriedly changed her words.

"Well, alright, let's go."

Just after Ellie and Ji'er went out together, Mia came out of a corner and looked at the girl's back with some concern. "You two, follow Ellie quietly and don't let her get hurt."

As soon as Mia's words fell, two black figures appeared in front of her, kneeling on one knee.

"Yes."

There were two cold female voices from the black shadows, with a resolute tone in their voices. They belong to Fiona's Empress Guard, and there are four people who come to protect Mia this time, two to protect Ellie, and the rest to protect Mia. In fact, Mia felt that Fiona's decision was very redundant, but after all, it was Fiona's decision, and she didn't want to go against it.

"I'm sorry for you."

The shadow replied and vanished, and Mia turned to leave.

In the city of Deya, the bustle of the past has long gone, although the city has not been destroyed, but at this time there is an indescribable desolate feeling. Low and depressed is a true portrayal of Deya City at this moment.

Ellie and Ji'er walked hand in hand down the central street, looking at the residents walking like the walking dead. "I hate to say it, but I know that it was my sister who made them like this." From time to time there were some people passing by on the street carrying stretchers, which were covered with white cloths, and Ellie knew that under the white cloth were the people who had died in this war, and Ellie did not dare to look at them, and lowered her head.

"Although it is the first time I have seen it, I have already hated war, no one likes war, war only brings pain. These people, they, are very painful, they have been forced to betray their country, their relatives and friends have died because of the war, and it is my sister who has caught them in this huge whirlpool of pain. It's all caused by my sister.,I,I hate this kind of sister......"

"Miss Ellie......" Looking at Ellie's sad appearance, Ji'er couldn't help but hold Ellie's hand, although Ellie is one year older than her, but her heart is very simple, Ji'er is a little worried about such Ellie.

"Ji'er will hate war, too." Ellie sighed as if she didn't expect Ji'er's answer.

The two of them walked slowly on the street, getting closer and closer to the city gate, and there were more and more people carrying stretchers, and there were already a lot of corpses piled up outside the city that Ellie couldn't see, and if those corpses were left unchecked, they would definitely cause a plague, so these corpses would be buried uniformly, so although it was efficient, it made people sigh that life was short, and there was no name after death.

Looking at the crowd of people coming and going, Ellie's eyes couldn't help but be a little numb, I don't know how many stretchers there are from inside the door to outside the door, she can't count them, she really wants to help them, but, what can such a weak self do? She doesn't have the magic to bring the dead back to life, if she can help others, if she can do her best to help others......

At this time, a stretcher passed in front of Ellie's eyes, and Ellie couldn't help but stop the two stretcher bearers, "Wait a minute." ”

The two men didn't seem to know that Ellie was calling them until Ellie grabbed the hem of their clothes.

"This young lady, is there anything wrong?" One of them asked, and he didn't get angry when he saw a beautiful girl pulling him.

"This man, he's not dead!"

PS: Deya City has become Deyun City...... It must be that my Deyun died too miserably, and I think the next city will be called Deyun City→_→
