"Ivan! Where are you?! The little girl's eager voice came from the flickering philosopher's stone.

"Ciel, don't worry, speak slowly."

"How is it possible not to be in a hurry? What's going on inside the city? ”

"It's a mess, I'm going to the city gate now."

"Listen to me, something happened! Ivan! That red magic array was like an enchantment, blocking the royal city from the outside world! No one can get in or out of it. ”

Only then did Ivan understand why the Praetorian guards had not been able to rush back to the city, it turned out that the royal city had been blocked. Even the Philosopher's Stone that Andrea had made for him and Hill had a faint reaction at this distance.

However, he wasn't worried, based on his last experience, maybe his blood could still work wonders, although for now, the two magic arrays were only similar in color.

"Then you're not in any danger, are you?"

"We're fine, the Second Commander is with us, but he can't get in either."

"Got it......"

Before Ivan could finish speaking, the connection between the two was suddenly severed, and the Philosopher's Stone returned to peace.

"What now?"

"According to the original plan, I have a way to try."

The two of them hurried to the city gate, and Ivan had been worried about Monica on the way.

This sister is also too restless, and she has to run around when she is injured, originally Ivan felt that as the famous killer "Bloody Rose", the eldest sister's skills in running should be very deep, and he couldn't worry, but now it's different, this big enchantment has controlled the entire royal city.

Alas, it's really worrying to be a righteous (beauty) partner.

From time to time, shadows flashed through the streets, and screams abounded, not necessarily on one side, but mostly just ordinary people.

Human beings tend to give full play to their sinful talents in such disorderly moments, unleashing their inner desires and madness.

It is not only the invaders who do evil, but also the rebels, even Odin's own soldiers, his own people, or lust or despair overwhelm their brains, crazy things can be said to be common.

These inhumane scenes made Edward eager to draw his sword and cut these people who took advantage of the evil to be cut into three pieces.

He felt remorseful and painful.

Is this still his father's empire? Is this still an empire that he is proud to be able to proudly say "I am an Odinite" no matter where he is?

He failed to protect the past, just as all the good things disappeared into the dust. These people are the beings he swore to protect, and now it seems ridiculous that he is? I'm just a "waste" who can't even protect my siblings and father.

"The brave man will not sit idly by and ignore the suffering in front of him, and he will definitely save these people." The young man who is moving forward with the goal of being brave is also uncalm in his heart at this moment.

He couldn't save.

The weight of the truth almost crushed him, and his heart was torn apart as he watched the flames consume everything in front of him, the wailing voices gradually swallowed out.

It may be difficult for ordinary people to understand this feeling, but for Ivan, following in the footsteps of that man is his only goal in this life, and when he loses this dream, he is afraid that he will just be an empty shell standing in place.

He gritted his teeth, and the blood slowly slipped from the corners of his mouth; He clenched his fists, his muscles almost covered with green tendons, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He stood in the shadowy corner, watching everything that was happening in front of him.

A group of Romaniel soldiers surrounded a girl, whose parents had fallen in a pool of blood.

"Hey, hey, there's a beautiful little sister here~"

"Don't ...... Don't come here......"

The girl's words did not work, but aroused the beastly desires of these soldiers.

"As long as you play with your brothers for a while, you won't have to die here like them unlucky ghosts."

"No...... No! You beasts! Get away from me! ”

"Don't worry, my brothers will be very gentle~hahaha~"

"Save ...... Help me! And there is no ...... Person...... Come and save me! ”

A soldier pounced, and he pressed the girl's body, trying to untie the girl's shirt.

The girl struggled fiercely, but the difference in size made it impossible for him to break free, and in desperation, she bit the salty pig's hand.

"Ahh The bitten soldier screamed in pain, and then he slapped the girl in anger, and the girl screamed, covering her right cheek tightly, and her eyes glistened with tears.

"Stinky bitch! Shame on the face! I wanted you to enjoy it, but now? Brothers, they're going to go together! ”

As soon as the angry soldier greeted, the soldier next to him immediately surrounded him with a lewd smile.

"Stop...... Leave her ......"

Ivan muttered as his hand grasping the corner of the wall had unconsciously squeezed completely into the stone.

But he couldn't take a single step.

Because both he and Edward understood what the result of exposure would be. The Romanians are looking for them everywhere, and if they go out at this time, they will be hunted for endlessly.

If it was just the two of them, they might have done it! But they also had Jon III with them, and the slightest bump could have killed the elderly patient.

"Let's go." Edward couldn't bear to look any longer, and he walked up and held out a hand to pull his friend's shoulder.

And Ivan's body didn't shake for a moment, he just stared at the group of people, repeating something in his mouth.

The soldiers had begun to stretch out their sinful hands, and they tore her clothes as they held the struggling girl.

The girl was slapped again, she tilted her head, her eyes revealing humiliation, but she met Ivan's gaze.

Suddenly, Ivan read her eyes.

Save...... Save me...... Please......

Ivan's body couldn't help but tremble, he stretched out his legs but couldn't take a step.

Finally, the girl closed her eyes in despair. Let these pig-like men touch and kiss her body.

"Let's go, Ivan, and I'll beg you." Edward said bitterly.

The pain in his heart was no less than Ivan's, as the third prince of the empire, he could only watch the invaders behave like a beast on the citizens protected by the empire, but he couldn't stop it.

"No ......"

"What...... Is it? Edward couldn't hear his friend's words.

"No...... Kill ......"

"What are you talking about?"

"Kill...... Light them! ”

Edward looked at Ivan with a face that was extremely indifferent.

Then, he watched Ivan stride out and finally out of the shadows.

"Let her go! You scumbags! ”
