Chapter 13: Endgame

Remember, you only have one chance, you have to take advantage of it, the old man shouted in the direction Frey left

At this point, Frey didn't care so much, she ran up the stairs as quickly as she could, and now she just wanted to reach her Julian brother as fast as she could

The two imperial soldiers who had just passed by the staircase saw a black shadow approaching them at high speed in their direction, and they immediately became alert and shouted: What person

However, they were answered with two deadly daggers

Frey didn't have time to check if the two soldiers were dead, and tears were streaming down her cheeks as she ran forward

After the mission is completed, I will take you on a journey to the north and south, to visit all the scenic spots of Olopa, and to eat all the delicious food in various places

Good walking, playing together, eating together

When we are tired of walking, playing, and eating, we will go to the sea to find a small island where no one lives

Then you went out to the sea to fish, and went into the mountains to hunt, and I planted the land, planted linen, and spun yarn and weave

And then you give me a whole bunch of children

The scene of the alliance with Julian reappeared in Frey's mind more clearly than ever, but at this time, Frey's tears flowed down her cheeks, sorry Julian's brother Frey may not be able to spend the rest of her life with you, Frey silently said in her heart dripping with blood and tears

At this moment, a small detachment of palace guards appeared on Frey's way, and it was evident that they had spotted Frey charging straight at them, and Frey turned two daggers without fear......

At this moment, at the entrance to the sewers at the lowest level of the palace, the old man who had guided Frey to save Julian had a twisted smile on his face, and he stood up with a straight body - it turned out that this guy was not hunched at all, and he also wiped a wrinkled old mask on his face, revealing the face that only mature middle-aged men had inside, and at the same time, he ripped off his gray robe, only to see that he was wearing a set of paladin armor made of Mithril alloy and a black cloak covering the outside of the armor

Meritgar looked in the direction where Frey had disappeared, and the corners of her mouth furled, revealing a terrible smile: The Pope asked me to help that kid without revealing myself, but now it seems that there is another benefit, at least this kid will not leave the court without permission after completing the task

No, I can't sit still here, I still have an agreement with Frey, thinking of this, Julian, who had given up on himself, slowly regained his fighting spirit, and he concentrated his will, as if trying to regain control of his body

However, no matter how much Julian resisted, it was in vain, and he could not even move half a finger now

Charlottes I noticed Julian's defiance and looked out of the dark sky, his eyes full of disdain and arrogance

Resist me, hum, by the time you rats snuck into the palace, I had already noticed your existence, and the reason why I didn't keep quiet was just to have a few more pleasant toys, you were just a pathetic pawn in my hands, to be played with in this chessboard, I was your god, and as a god, I had the power to play with any lowly creature in the lower realm

From the look in the eyes of Charlotte I, Julian clearly read what he was about to say to himself, although the emperor did not bother to say it at all

Damn, how can you be my god, Julian desperately wanted to struggle, but he couldn't break free from the shackles of evil magic, and at this time, the chess game had entered the endgame, and Julian's comrades were left with few comrades

On Julian's side, only he was left as the king and two knights, while on the Marne side, only he was left with a castle and a soldier

Both sides except for the king only had two pieces left, but it was clear that the side of Charlotte I, who held the sunspot, had the upper hand in the situation, and after a few rounds of competition, one of the knights of the white son held by the prime minister Aspejo was replaced by the soldiers of the opposing sunspot, and the situation became a castle against a knight, and the sunspot had a clear upper hand, and the white lost the possibility of obtaining, as long as he tried to force the black to draw, he would not be defeated

However, there were still differences in the chess skills of the two sides, and in the face of a chess master like Charlotte I, Aspejo rushed left and right several times, but could not cause a draw, on the contrary, after a mistake, his last remaining knight was defeated by Charlotte I's castle, and Julian became a lone king, and the white son had lost completely

Am I dying right here, Julian thought helplessly

However, just as Julian was discouraged again, a scream suddenly came from the dark sky, and Julian immediately looked into the air, only to see the huge bust of Prime Minister Aspejo showing an extremely painful expression, while Charlotte I on the other side was stunned

Although he didn't know what was going on, Julian could clearly feel that the power of the evil magic was weakening at this time, and he could control a part of his body, and Julian increased his willpower, and finally his hands could be manipulated freely

Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Julian suddenly pulled out two knights' swords from his waist and swung them forward

Seeing that the pitch-black space in front of him seemed to be cut out of thin air, the surrounding space was distorted for a while, and Julian only felt dizzy......

By the time the headache wore off, Julian found himself back in the brightly lit room of the Emperor's bedchamber

As for Charlotte I, Julian immediately looked in the direction of the desk, and saw the ivory chess pieces smashed all over the ground, and the vizier Aspejo had been stabbed through the back by a guard's saber, and the handle of the saber was in the hand of a girl dressed as a guard, while Charlotte I stared angrily at the girl who had killed the prime minister

Poof--Frey spurted a mouthful of blood from her mouth and fell to the ground with a thud

FreiJulian flew in a frenzy......

Meritgar, disguised as an old man, said to Frey at the entrance of the sewers:

The evil art used by the dog emperor is to trap people in the chess game, turn people into chess pieces, and play against others, to launch this evil art, the caster must have an opponent to play against him, and there are only two ways to rescue the person who is controlled by this evil art: first, you yourself as the opponent of the caster, play chess with him and win him on the chessboard, and second, kill the opponent and forcibly interrupt the chess game, but if you do this, you will be severely attacked by the evil art, do you really not regret it?
