Chapter 20 The Misfortune of Sicili
"Your Majesty!!" As if aware of it, Belea, who had been flying in the distance, suddenly approached them.
"Uh... What's wrong.. Haruka hurriedly waved his hand, dispersing the strange images in his mind.
"I always feel like you're talking about something weird. ”
"Well, don't think much of it. He flatly denied it.
"Really? But your expression always feels weird... Can you tell me what you guys were talking about?"
"Oh? We are saying ... By the way, don't you think it's strange about the enemy? Why did the enemy just abandon the defense of Alka, if Hibbert was really in Gorka, he wouldn't have done such a thing, could he?"
"That's right, I'm afraid that the current Gorka is just an empty city, but I can't rule out some kind of traps in it. Belia said cautiously.
"What do you think, Sicili?" Seeing that she hadn't spoken, Haruka wanted to ask her opinion. However, in the face of Haruka's question, Xixili, who was still very active just now, suddenly became silent.
"Xixili?" She suddenly leaned her head on Haruka's shoulders, and at the same time, her hands that hugged him tightly also drooped.
"Your Majesty, Sicily doesn't look right... Belea, who was on the sidelines, seemed to notice her strangeness.
"Sicili, what's wrong with you?" Haruka tried to shake her body to see what was wrong with her, but she fell off the griffin's back and smashed straight to the ground as if she were a doll that had been disconnected.
"Not good!!" Haruka grabbed the reins, causing the griffin to writh a hundred and eighty degrees in the air, and then swooped down towards the falling Sicili. Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Haruka reached out and grabbed her arm, then pulled her back onto the griffin's back.
As a result of this sudden incident, the pace of the entire army was stopped. Haruka hurried away, and the griffin, who was directly controlled, fell back to the ground, and then lay the unconscious Sicili flat in the carriage of the beast cart.
"Xixili?" Haruka shook her body with her hand, but the other party didn't respond at all.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Belia on the side stopped Haruka, "This body was originally a shell controlled by Lord Sicili, so you shouldn't be too nervous." ”
"But why did the good ones suddenly become like this?"
"I'm afraid that Sicili-sama's main body has encountered some situation and has had to cut off contact with this body, right?" Belia speculated.
"Isn't the body of Sicili supposed to be in the royal capital of the East Country? I always feel ... Haruka's heart was vaguely uneasy.
"We don't know the exact situation now, so we can only try to ask Eleanor and them about the situation through teleportation magic. Belia suggested.
"Yes, maybe Eleanor knows something, so get someone to send the letter. As soon as Haruka's words fell, I saw that a soldier who had given the order had already rushed into the carriage.
"General Belea, Your Majesty the Demon King! There's a message from the Eastern Country's Raiding Army, please take a look. ”
"Eleanor, the information they sent?!can't be such a coincidence, right?" Belia took the message from the soldier.
"Hibbert has completed the ritual of reincarnation, and now he is using Elian's body to lead a large number of puppet troops, taking advantage of our attack on the country of the west and the country of the south, launching an attack on the country of the east, please rush to the country of the east immediately to rescue. 」
Belia conveys a message from afar to Haruka, which makes Haruka seem a little slumped. Whether it was the attack on the East Country or the completion of Hibbert's reincarnation, Haruka felt extremely annoyed, not only did he fail to save Sister Elian, but even put Xicili in danger.
"Your Majesty, this is not the time to be depressed. Belia saw Haruka's thoughts, slowly walked to his side, and then knelt on one knee, "If the enemy is attacking the East Country now, we must go back to the rescue immediately!"
"You're right!!, you can't let the East Country fall no matter what!!" Haruka slapped his cheeks with both hands. "We can't let that bastard get away with it again this time!!"
He stepped out of the carriage and stepped onto his griffon.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go alone?"
"With the speed of the griffon, our troops can't keep up, so there's no need to move slowly with the big army! ”
"In that case, then I'll go with you. Belia said as she mounted another griffon.
"In that case, who will lead the troops?!" Haruka asked rhetorically.
"Your Majesty, let Belia come with you, and I will lead the army to the East Country as soon as possible. Savwaga walked over to the two of them and swore a swear.
"Well, in that case, let's go!"
The two of them rode the griffon at the same time, and then rushed into the sky under the eyes of everyone, quickly disappearing from sight......
