Overall, this fortress located on the border is quite spectacular.

On the other side of the mountain, there is actually a valley, along the surface of the mountain, a lot of dwellings have been carved, and the valley has been bulldozed to become a wide playground, in which a large number of soldiers either sit quietly or stand, practicing the power of the sword, the original power of professionals.

As for the mage troops, they are in their respective residences, meditating and cultivating their magical powers.

Retracting his gaze from the terrace, Zhao Nan turned around. This is no longer the hall that Asmaka used to meet him, but a more comfortable side hall. And at present, in addition to his own group, there is only Asmaka who is not good-looking.

They were kidnapped, and with a very incredible turn that made many of the soldiers who arrived feel very unbelievable, they were dismissed, and they were ordered to come down and let people be well received here.

Time hasn't been much longer...... But for Asmaka, the owner of the fortress, it was like a long time to spend centuries. His will was not lost or anything, but in a suffocating way, he was confined to within a foot of his body.

Asmaka took a deep breath and found that she seemed to be able to speak her own way, "You guys...... Who the hell is it. ”

It's a feeling of a complete lack of qi. In fact, it seems that this kind of uneasiness will arise in the hearts of anyone in the face of such a vague danger.

The side hall was very quiet, but at this time, several eyes still fell on Asmaka at the same time - this made him feel a very large sternness, and while guessing the purpose of these people, he did not forget to try to warn the other party with some words: "No matter who you are, but remember that this is the Night Empire." If what you do is discovered, the consequences will be very severe! ”

Zhao Nan walked in front of the other party. "The return of the princess...... Did you come back by yourself, or did you have someone find you? ”

“…… His Royal Highness announced that He had returned from a travels. ”

"Then why do you secretly summon all your royal families to announce this kind of thing, why don't you just announce it to the world?"

This is where Zhao Nan feels most puzzled - it is not that a fake imperial daughter suddenly appeared, but the attitude of the Emperor of the Night Empire in this matter.

Asmaka resisted, but it was to no avail, and he had to say, "Let's have a soul sacrifice together." “

-- The so-called soul sacrifice. It is a ritual that requires the gathering of more than 100 royal families with the power of the soul race, which is used to carry out soul sublimation. A single Soul Sacrifice will reduce the Soul Strength by one level for at least one year. You must know that the powerful source of the will is the soul's sustenance of faith, that is to say, the soul sacrifice is the consciousness that will make the will less powerful.

――Sublimation...... For whom is it sublimated?

- Obviously, I'm afraid it's this so-called princess.

The communication with the black princess was only in an instant. Zhao Nan, who had already understood what the soul sacrifice was, began to feel that things were a little unexpected for him.

The Emperor of the Night Empire would not be a madman, using such an important ritual to sublimate the soul of a fake princess - no wonder he always felt that Asmaka's will might felt like it was strong and powerful.

-- Maybe it has something to do with the incident that attacked you back then.

- It's hard to say...... However, the Soul Festival has not been held for hundreds of years. It was actually chosen at this time. I always had the feeling that something was going on in the Empire.

Xiao Yuni was lying in Xu Yang's arms, pretending to be asleep, but obviously she also had a feeling of turmoil.

Zhao Nan groaned for a while, but suddenly looked at Asmaka and said, "We're leaving...... After that, please report this matter to the Empire, and ......"

……

……

"This, this princess is a fake, and the real princess is still in the people. In the near future, I will bring the real princess to the imperial city. ”

Towering above the huge mountain range that enters the halo layer, it resembles the Imperial Palace of the Night Empire of the Heavenly Outer Palace. Inside the fortified hall is the current Emperor Lucifer XIV. Listening to a report from Asmaka from the border fortress.

This general is full of men at the moment, his breath is still in chaos, and he thinks that he has been coming all the way non-stop, and he has not stopped for a moment at all, so he looks so tired.

There was no one else in the hall.

"That man. Is that really what you say? ”

At the same time as the question sounded, Asmaka subconsciously raised his head, but after bumping into the gaze of His Majesty the Emperor, he fell down in a panic, "It's true! This is what the minister has witnessed. And this person must be a powerhouse at the level of a small world. ”

"Even if it's a small world level, with the strength of your garrison fortress, can't you stay?" Lucifer XIV seemed dissatisfied.

This made Akasma suddenly feel a feeling of indescribable suffering, and he hurriedly said: "In fact, why doesn't the minister want to mobilize the power of the fortress to fight against that man? However, Wei Chen can't do it, Your Majesty! ”

His Majesty's gaze shrank slightly, and a voice that seemed to vibrate above his soul flashed: "Say." ”

"Under that man's will, I was like a puppet being manipulated, not to mention struggling, even my thoughts seemed to be controlled. At that time, Wei Chen's heart wanted to give an order to deal with this person a thousand times, but he could only laugh humiliatingly...... You can't even burn your own will! ”

"Incompetent people can only use this excuse to escape their faults." His Majesty the Emperor said indifferently at this time: "Okay, since you are here, you will live in the imperial city, and I will send someone else to guard the fortress instead of you." ”

Asmaka shook her body...... Obviously, although Lucifer XIV did not directly condemn himself, he did so by changing his manpower.

"Minister...... Compliance. ”

Looking at the sound of leaving the main hall at the end of the curtain, Lucifer XIV fell into a self-muttering to himself, "Although Asmaka is not yet in the small world, and it has also declined after the soul sacrifice, if it is not a lie...... Is it a small world of the control type, or is it a small world of the psychedelic type? ”

His eyes opened. In the dim hall, this pair of eyes was particularly bright, "Real princess...... Is it really Finina? There is a rumor in Free City that Edward died in the Wandering Realm, is there any connection between the two......"

His Majesty the Emperor frowned very beautifully, and suddenly stood up from the throne, and the air in front of him was torn at this moment. His Majesty the Emperor stepped into it.

Off-white six-story tower, crimson world...... This is where His Majesty the Emperor is located today, that is, in the deepest part of the sacred mountain where the imperial city is located.

The door of the tower opened at this moment, and His Majesty the Emperor walked into it without any hesitation.

"Fourteen, why did you come?" A deep and powerful voice also sounded at this time.

His Majesty the Emperor looked up, and among the twelve coffins above the mid-air, one of the coffins was really the source of one of the voices.

"I've seen the XIII. As a father, I don't think it's incomprehensible for me to come and see my daughter. Lucifer XIV said indifferently.

"This thing is your daughter too?" With a cold mockery. The thirteenth generation's voice rose and fell again, like an old demon in hell, which made people feel creepy, "Even if it is a sublimation ceremony, but the disappearance of the pseudo is a pseudonym, just a barely usable Cheng dù...... If it weren't for the empress's soul prescription dissipating and continuing a carrier......"

"I know."

A heavy voice sounded, as if to counter the voice inside the coffin. "I'm the Fourteenth of the Empire, so I don't need you to say anything like that. I know it too! ”

"Hmph, it's only because you indulged Finina too much in the first place that you let her run away from the palace, and even disappeared until now, otherwise why would we use the body of this dead thing? Fourteen, you are too indecisive! Originally, the ascension ceremony was used for you to take the last step. But you have used it on this pseudo-object, and what kind of thoughts do you have, you must think that I do not know...... But forget it! The top priority is to let the empress ...... Hmph, has this pseudo thing woken up? XIV. You can take your 'daughter' away for the time being, and come back next time! ”

The voice of the XIII finally ...... At this time, under the twelve coffins, in the huge six-pointed star magic array, among the two crystal coffins, one black and one white, the white crystal coffin suddenly opened.

The mist slowly dispersed, and a blonde-haired woman sat up slowly in a long white dress.

Lucifer XIV showed a gentle smile at this time, "My good daughter, how are you feeling today?" ”

"Good......," the woman said with a slight sneer.

His Majesty the Emperor smiled softly at this time: "If that's the case, go back to the palace with me, your queen mother wants to see you." ”

"Yes......" is still a response without much emotion.

Like a puppet, the woman slowly walked out of the crystal coffin and slowly walked to Lucifer XIV's side.

His Majesty the Emperor glanced at another black crystal coffin at this time, sighed lightly, and was afraid of the woman's shoulder: "Let's go." ”

"Yes......"

……

……

Huge flying boats docked in the mountains called Sleilaya...... The size of this flying boat has exceeded the limits of personal space, so it is only possible to choose a hidden dock.

Let's put aside the matter of the real and false princesses...... In fact, this was done by Zhao Nan on purpose, hoping that after leaving here, the Night Empire would reveal something, in suspicion.

After all, it is the maiden family of his wife...... Zhao Nan, who is actually very traditional in his bones, really doesn't want to use too tough means. Therefore, Finina, who understood this, was very understanding and put her own affairs aside for the time being.

She herself understands that there is no way to rush things that cannot be rushed...... It's just that she doesn't understand, why does Zhao Nan think that the returning princess is a fake?

That should be a real princess, right? After all, he said that the soul that belonged to his sister had left safely, didn't he?

"Because there was an agreement that if your sister wants to go back, she will let me know. But I didn't receive any indications. Zhao Nan could only say that.

――You'd better confess to your sister...... I can't hide it for long.

- Don't make a mess......

Headache. (To be continued......)
