Before Alice could reach out to help, Sophia had already gotten up from the ground on her own.

Although Sophia was not injured by the fall, her white priest's robe was covered with dirty dust and mud, and she looked gray and embarrassed.

"Oops, it's all dirty. Alice hurriedly took out her hand and patted it away, wiping the dirt off Sophia's body.

"Bess!" the first thing Sophia did when she stood up was not to groom, but to call the name of the perpetrator in a tired and tired voice.

Even if you don't have to think about it, you know that the two bricks that appeared on the ground of the prison gate for no reason are the masterpieces of some strange creature.

"Hee-hee!"

Winged Elf Beth floated out from behind a stone pillar next to the doorway, one hand on her hip and the other hand forward in a "V" gesture.

The cheerful winged elf flew around Sophia, saying as she flew, "I'll tell you, Sophia......"

"Don't do all this boring pranks, okay? Come on, I don't have time to mess around with you right now. You should go back to the forest, back to your kind!" Before Beth could finish speaking, Sophia interrupted her in an angry tone.

The big things of the regents have already made Sophia anxious, and at this juncture, Bess has come to add to the chaos, which is almost driving Sophia crazy, and naturally Sophia's attitude towards her will not be much better.

For Sophia's madness, Beth was unusual, and did not stare at Sophia with innocent eyes that made people laugh and cry as usual, as if she was appreciating something very interesting, and now Bess actually blinked her eyes with a crystal luster similar to tears, and put on the expression of a wronged little girl, and her mouth was long.

"Hmph! Sophia's big villain! Every time, I won't play with you!" screamed as he shook his transparent wings and flew away.

"What? I'm the one who suffered. Looking at the direction in which the winged elves disappeared into the night, Sophia sighed helplessly.

"Are you a little too harsh with this kid? Beth did do a great deal of help in quelling the Lynx's rebellion, and it was up to her to deliver the news that I was able to get along with the princess. "As in the Underworld, after Sophia was teased by Beth, Alice played a role for the troublemaker.

"It's not you who Bez wants to tease, of course you can say it so easily. And don't you think it's strange what you just said? Guy who has lived hundreds of thousands of years, you call her 'child'. ”

"I think it's her who treats you as a mother, isn't it normal for a daughter to be a spoiler to her mother or something?"

"Go, go, go! You're her mother!"

......

The second daughter said and left the prison with a smile.

Talking back to the past, the light-hearted topic temporarily diluted the serious atmosphere. They walked and talked until about 3:40 a.m., when Sophia and Alice returned to their lodgings.

In order to facilitate mutual care, Sophia's room was arranged next to Alice.

After saying goodbye to her best friend and entering the room, Sophia, who loved cleanliness very much, didn't bother to take a bath, so she took off her dirty clothes directly, changed into pajamas and lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

She was so tired these days, and early in the morning after dawn she had to have a meeting with the nobles, leaving her with less than four hours to rest, and Sophia had to hurry up to replenish her strength.

However, the trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop......

In the dead of night, darkness reigns over the earth, and an invisible web of evil opens silently along with the darkness.

At around 4 o'clock in the morning, human physical and mental defense is the most lax, and it is also the most vulnerable time to take advantage of it.

Compared to fragile and hesitant humans, animals are unusually responsive.

The dogs in the camp barked like crazy, the horses neighed for the reins, the sheep and cattle that should have been asleep were smashing in the animal pens, the chickens and ducks fluttering everywhere were making their feathers flutter, and even the fish in the water were constantly jumping out of the water to show their inner restlessness......

However, the clamor of the animals did not attract anyone's attention, because all humans fell into a nightmare called "sleep", and even the soldiers who patrolled and stood guard at night, and the jailers who guarded the prison, were dragged into their sleep under the control of some mysterious force. The more than 10,000 people in the camp will probably never wake up.

Under the influence of the light magic on her body, Sophia, who was already asleep, suddenly regained her senses, but only regained consciousness, not consciousness. Because although Sophia's brain is awake, she can't control any part of her body, she can't move half a minute, and she can't even perceive the outside world through her body's sensory organs.

She couldn't hear anything, couldn't see anything, couldn't smell anything, couldn't take in any touch on her skin, couldn't say anything, and in a state of complete loss of all senses, Sophia seemed to be surrounded by chaos. Although her soul remained in her body, the connection between her soul and her body had been completely severed, and only her ability to think a little bit of activity allowed her to know that she was still alive.

This anomaly caused Sophia, who had fought against dark magic many times, to immediately realize that it was the effect of someone using dark magic. It wasn't that she didn't want to resist, but it was in vain, not to mention that she couldn't open her mouth to shout, and she couldn't even do the prayer of light magic in her heart, because she couldn't recall any knowledge of magic, she couldn't mobilize any magic that belonged to her, and she couldn't call out the soul of the Valkyrie.

A spellcaster hiding in the shadows completely cut off Sophia's magic.

If it were Sophia in normal times, she would definitely not be controlled by this spell so easily, but the fierce battles during the day and the excessive use of healing magic had exhausted the "stigma" divine power that she had only recovered a little bit for many days, and the magic power had almost bottomed out. It can be seen that the enemy hidden in the shadows has been secretly spying on Sophia for a long time, waiting for her to be in the weakest position he has ever made a move.

Next to the village, on a hill overlooking most of the Restorationist camp, two sentries who were in charge of standing guard had fallen to the ground at their posts, and less than ten meters from the post stood a slender white shadow.

The white shadow swayed in the breeze, but remained in place, eerie, illusory, and without any real feeling, making people wonder if it was real. Although no one was able to move at this point, if anyone did get closer, it would be revealed that the white shadow was actually a strange man in a white robe, with long hair falling forward, covering his face and chest, and only his strange left eye was revealed through the gap in his hair.

Sariktin, a member of the Lich King's personal guard, is not only the terrifying skill of "Ghost Hitting the Wall", this huge barrier called "Ghost Press" does not cause any elemental fluctuations, so it is not detected by the magic detection system in the camp; when the "Ghost Press" is quietly unfolded, countless self-lost spirits are summoned from the abyss of Hades and pressed against the living, using the energy of the spirit to cut off the connection between the soul of the living and their own body.

Anyone affected will not be spared, but will obediently be reduced to lambs to the slaughter.
