Principality of Assammet.

Inside the palace of Her Royal Highness Alice.

Under the moonlit night, everything is silent.

People in the main city who have been busy all day have already fallen asleep. The occasional stumbling drunkard humming a song on the street, presumably just leaving a late-night bar.

Standing by the window, Alice let the night breeze ruffle her hair.

She was silently in a daze, her mind not knowing where to go.

It's been a month since that incident, and there has been no news from His Highness Roy.

He knew that his father sent many spies every day to inquire about the news, but in the end they found nothing.

After that day, Prince Shikari did not take revenge as madly as he had hoped, and there was no movement in the kingdom, as if nothing had happened.

But Alice knows that things are definitely not as simple as she thinks. Because after Prince Hikari unsuccessfully pursued and killed His Royal Highness Roy that day, his face when he came back was so ugly.

No one knew what was going on, and no one dared to ask. On the contrary, Prince Shikari said two words without being salty, and the matter was over.

The Duchy of Vladjimir is safe, the Duchy of Asammet is safe, and even the dark curtain of the whole thing has not caused the slightest friction with the Kingdom of Hikari.

But about His Highness Roy, everyone is silent. His life and death have now become a mystery.

Alice was not worried about Li Yanbei's life and death, because she firmly believed that her Highness Roy would survive. The only thing she worries about now is whether His Highness Roy will be able to get out of the shadow of losing Fiona.

She really wanted to be by Li Yanbei's side, because she knew that only she could share Li Yanbei's pain now.

She really wanted to see Li Yanbei now and tell him how worried she was.

The Duke of Assamet and the Grand Physician Mousse speculated every day, guessed every day, and every time the Duchy's spies returned, they were more nervous than anyone else.

Alice knew that it was impossible for her father to ask Prince Hikari in person. Because behind him there are the lives of the entire people of the principality.

It was fortunate that the Principality was not implicated in this matter, and since Prince Shikari did not mention it, of course Duke Asammet had no reason to mention it. But if Li Yanbei really died, he would definitely do not hesitate to avenge him with all his might.

In order to find out Li Yanbei's information, Duke Asammet once went to Jester in person. However, after searching for a long time, he found that Jester seemed to have evaporated from the world.

There is no news from the principality, and there is no contact with the dark curtain, so Alice can only think silently and pray every day.

She really hopes that one day, Li Yanbei will appear in front of her again.

The night breeze blows, bringing a hint of coolness.

Alice quietly looked at the waning moon in the sky, feeling a little desolate in her heart.

"His Highness Roy······"

A soft sobbing sounded, and two lines of crystal tears rolled down.

Under this poignant moonlight, Alice could no longer control it.

"Love

Lis······"

Just as Alice was secretly hurting herself, a familiar voice suddenly came. And Alice, who heard this voice, her delicate shoulders trembled violently.

She turned around, her eyes wide in disbelief.

And Li Yanbei, who was thinking about it day and night, stood quietly in front of her like this, with a smile on his face as usual.

"I'm worried about you, I'm fine. ”

Alice looked at Li Yanbei blankly, as if in a dream.

And Li Yanbei reached out to wipe away the tears on her face, and the smile on her face became stronger.

"Don't cry. ”

For some reason, Alice looked at Li Yanbei, who was smiling lightly, and her brain fell into a blank.

But after she felt the temperature from Li Yanbei's fingertips, the grievances and worries that had been suppressed for a long time broke out in an instant.

"His Highness Roy!"

threw herself into Li Yanbei's arms, and Alice burst into tears.

For the past month, she has been worried all the time. When Li Yanbei really appeared in front of her, all the weight that was pressing on her heart was completely unloaded.

Looking at Alice with pear blossoms and rain, Li Yanbei patted her back dotingly. He knew why Alice was like this, and he was deeply touched by her affection.

"Alright, alright, I'm back······"

Moonlit night, breeze.

The silver spilled all over the room, and the books on the table swayed gently.

Li Yanbei caressed Alice's back quietly, like a big brother coaxing his wayward sister.

For a long time, a long time, Alice finally stopped crying.

She raised her head and looked at Li Yanbei, her pretty face was full of grievances and sadness.

"Your Highness Roy, I thought I would never see you again. ”

Li Yanbei lightly tapped Alice's forehead, and said leisurely,

"Silly girl, how could it be?"

Looking at Li Yanbei who was smiling, Alice was relieved for a while. But after a moment, she suddenly remembered something else.

"Where's Sister Fiona?

Hearing this, Li Yanbei was slightly moved.

I saw that his smile slowly dissipated, and a touch of sadness appeared on his face.

"Alice. ”

Speaking slightly, Li Yanbei looked at Alice seriously.

"I want to ask you to do something for me. ”

Hearing this, Alice didn't think much about it, and nodded heavily.

"You say, I'll do it. ”

As expected, Alice gave Li Yanbei a satisfactory answer neatly.

Li Yanbei also knew that there were not many people he could fully trust on this continent, but Alice was definitely one of them.

"Alice. ”

Li Yanbei pinched Alice's shoulder, and there was a little gratitude in her peaceful eyes.

He knew that she was the best person to do it.

"During my absence, please help me take care of Faye

How is Ona?"

Hearing this, Alice was slightly startled.

"Sister Fiona, where is she?"

Li Yanbei breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Alice's bedroom.

There was a little sadness in his eyes, as if his heart would ache fiercely at the mention of this name.

"In your bedroom. ”

Alice's eyes were full of concern.

"How's Sister Fiona?"

Li Yanbei didn't reply, but slowly shook his head.

And seeing Li Yanbei's expression, Alice's heart slowly sank.

"Your Highness Roy, what can I do?"

"I'm going to do something, it's too inconvenient to take Fiona with me. ”

Li Yanbei said slowly,

"I don't know if I'll be able to come back, and I don't know when I'll be able to do so, so in the meantime, please take care of her body. ”

Tears glistened in Alice's eyes, and a sense of foreboding hung over her.

"Where are you going?"

"The underworld. ”

Li Yanbei smiled indifferently.

"I'm going to get Fiona's soul back. ”

"What!"

Alice's eyes widened.

"You... You're going to ······"

The delicate body trembled violently, and Alice's emotions were almost out of control.

As a seventh-order powerhouse, Alice, who had read many ancient books on this continent, knew what kind of place this legendary underworld was, and also knew that this underworld was definitely not just a legend.

"His Highness Roy······"

Looking at Li Yanbei excitedly, Alice's tears flowed down.

"You... Can you ······?"

Li Yanbei knew what Alice wanted to say, and he also understood her thoughts.

He knew very well the little girl's feelings for him, but he was not qualified to accept this emotion anymore.

"Alice. ”

Gently stroking Alice's long hair, Li Yanbei's smile became warmer.

"I know, I know. But you have to believe that if it were you who were lying in bed right now, I would do the same. ”

His eyes began to blur, and the tears could not be stopped.

Hearing what Li Yanbei said to herself, Alice's heart warmed.

"I know, I know. ”

Gently hugged Alice, Li Yanbei's smile grew.

"If Fiona's body is gone, and I haven't returned, please bury her in my name. ”

Alice's eyes showed a look of despair, and she said pitifully,

"His Highness Roy······"

He just called out his name, but he couldn't say the following words anymore.

Looking deeply at Li Yanbei's side face, Alice seemed to hear the sound of her heartbreak.

"His Highness Roy······"
