"Daddy is really going to marry you to an old man?" Lycia pressed her knife against Ash's door that was about to close.

"What does he want, can anyone stop him?" Ash nudged Lycia. "You too, do you think that after you become the heir now, your father will look down on you?"

Lycia let Ash close the door, what happened to Ash, since her mother's accident, her relationship with her father seems to have deteriorated to the point of incompatibility.

Lycia returned to her room, and before she could open the glowing circle, she felt something was wrong.

"Marianne?" Lycia rested her arm on the door, but didn't step in.

A strange force pushed her into the room, and the door slammed shut.

"The Eye of the Dead Sea. Before Lycia could finish the summons, she was struck in the temple by a force and fell to the ground.

"Give your life for our Lord!" a man wrapped in black cloth raised his sword in the air.

Asza had reminded her that the church would take action against her, and she thought it was a false accusation, but she didn't expect it to be an assassination.

Lycia looked at the disgust of the other party's empty strip, it was obvious that this person just wanted to kill her, and had no other feelings for her, she couldn't move, and a six-pointed star came out of Lycia's hand and successfully reached the top of the head of the black-clothed killer.

Lycia rolled around in his froze and summoned the Armored Knight without hesitation.

"Don't summon me in the room!!" The Armor Knight came with an armor, and Lycia's room obviously couldn't fit the horses.

"Help. "Hexagram's grip on the Black-Clad Killer was quickly broken by himself.

Lycia ran behind the armor.

The armored knight drew his sword and swung it lightly. "Men dare to hinder me. ”

Lycia heard the sound of her severed hand falling to the ground, and before she could exclaim, she smelled a pungent smell of smoke.

"Sure enough, it's someone who is in collusion with the darkness. The black-robed killer spread the black cloth, and the black cloth glowed with a circle of light that sparked flames from every corner of Lycia's room.

The Armored Knight's sword pierced the black-clad killer's chest, but it couldn't stop the strange fire from the circle.

"I, first give my life for my lord!" the black-clad killer rattled before he died. "Manifest the prototype in the light!"

Lycia found that her room was sealed, and the flames had licked the corners of her clothes, but no one noticed anything unusual about her room.

"What to do. ”

The Armored Knight used his bronze and iron body to help Lycia block some of the flames.

Lycia cut her skirt open and reduced the fabric.

"Give you my strength!" the armor knight's body, the entire suit of armor, spread out into multiple pieces under the firelight, and then attached to Lycia's body.

As if her hands and feet had been manipulated, Lycia could only feel the heat from the outside world, but she could not be hurt by the flames.

She was then manipulated by her armor to run to the window, and thump to the invisible border. "No, I can't. ”

Although her skin was not injured, Lycia was about to choke on the smoke and fainted.

She was desperately thinking about the Enclosed Space Ground Circle in her mind.

'What's the circle on the cloth?' in the flames, it's hard to keep a good rhythm of thought.

Lycia scurried around the room, but luckily the room was big enough.

After the Knight of Armor gave her the armor, there was no more sound.

"Absolute space!" Lycia suddenly thought of Caroline, who wielded an axe, and she had said that the highest level of magic drawn by the shield crest was to create an absolute space that could not be broken.

Only space that can be broken from the inside.

It was obviously a magic circle that could absolutely protect the safety of the space, but now it was used to imprison Lycia, because she was not the initiator, and she couldn't break this magic circle.

And the person who triggered this circle has now lost his breath, and it is estimated that it has been burned to the point that only the skeleton remains.

From the very beginning, he was determined to trap Lycia to death, leaving her with no way out.

Lycia was already a little exhausted, and smoke poured down her throat.

As she fainted, a pure silver glow rose from the pile of clothes that had been burned.

The silver undead thorns pierced through the flames and clinged to Lycia's wrists, pulling her up.

It was as if life had re-injected into Lycia's body, making her open her eyes again.

"Silver light?" Lycia's eyes were about to melt, and she barely managed to glance at the thorns wrapped around her wrists. "I can't die here!"

She stood up again, and the hand of armor grabbed and flung out the silver thorns in her consciousness, and the silver light split the flames in front of her, revealing a pattern of magic circles that continued to bubble with flames.

"Now, I'm your master!" Armor picked up the black cloth engraved with the shield coat of arms and more intricate patterns in Lycia's consciousness.

The circle dimmed in Lycia's hands.

Lycia walked towards the door, where she heard the servant's exclamations coming from outside the door.

"There's a fire in Mademoiselle's room!" said Marianne, who had not put on her shoes, and ran out of the maid's room.

Ash also smelled smoke, and her room was very close to Lycia.

The armor that had protected Lycia was gone, leaving Lycia lying outside the door, silver thorns and a black cloth beside her.

"Are you sure it's someone from the church?" Dimitrius quietly visited Lycia the day after she was injured.

Marianne, who was standing aside, raised her head as if she had seen nothing, and went out with the door.

"Yes, I'm sure. Lycia couldn't turn a blind eye to the church's movements, she couldn't sit still, though she didn't know why the church was determined to kill her.

"But the man who came to assassinate you, look up his identity. ”

Lycia was not too seriously injured, and when she heard this topic, she immediately became energetic. "What identity?"

"It's from the Thiel family. Dimitrius walked from the foot of Lycia's bed to the head of the bed, and looked down at her.

"But if it's just because of jealousy, you don't need such a big deal. Lycia analyzed.

The young heir to the empire nodded as well. "Yes. So, if you're sure you're from the church, then the Thiel family should be on the side of the church as well. ”

The Tyre family was the mother family of Dimitri, and he calmly classified his mother family into the church faction.

"It seems that it was the Church that controlled some terrible power that made my grandfather sacrifice me to cling to the Church. Dimitri said.

Lycia felt a little uncomfortable that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was talking to her so heartily, knowing too many royal secrets also meant that she had to bear more things.

"What do you think?" Dimitri looked up at Lycia's brow browbone.

"I agree with you. Apparently it was useless to fool around at this point, and Lycia responded to him very clearly.
