Donner turned around and saw several frightened faces. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He opened his mouth and closed it reluctantly.

But as if knowing what he was thinking, Lucia said sadly: "I know, this situation...... You don't have a choice. ”

"That's right," Kane nodded heavily, "Your Highness is right! The brothers who were affected are also for the Empire, and the Empire will remember them!"

Donner smiled with relief, "Dean Kane, you deal with this place as soon as possible, seal off the vicinity of the square, and issue a gag order." ”

Although the movement just now was heard by the whole of Coennas, the witnesses were all soldiers, and Kane had his own way of keeping them shut. Moreover, word of mouth is easy to exaggerate the effect, and even if it is spread, those who hear it will not believe it.

"Understood!" Dean Kane bowed.

If it weren't for Donner's action, the empire would have been in chaos long ago, so at this time, Kane's obedience to Donner was more out of gratitude than because of the terrifying strength he had shown.

However, as soon as he took a step out, he stopped, looked at the child in his arms, and said to Lucia: "Your Highness, what should you do with this evil seed?"

Lucia looked at Donner with an inquiring look.

"Whatever you decide, I think everyone will support you. Donner said.

With so many deaths that night, and the first evil being punished, Lucia's hatred has faded a lot, she is kind by nature, and after spending the first grief and anger, she finally can't kill a child.

"You let Veronica take this kid away," Lucia lowered her head and gritted her teeth, "I don't want to see them again." ”

"No," Donner frowned, "Veronica can't stay." ”

This was already determined when Donner took Veronica as a pet, and in the event that he could use contract magic again at any time, everyone who was accepted as a pet by him had only two choices, either to stay by his side or to kill him. Otherwise, the secret of psychic magic will be revealed.

"That ......," Lucia grimaced.

Donner knew what she was embarrassed about, reached out and took the child from Dean Kane's hand, hugged it at his side, and said, "I'll take care of it." ”

"Are you going to ......" Lucia was only halfway through the question, and Donner waved his hand and said, "Don't ask." ”

Lucia knew it was for her own good—if Donner was going to kill the child, it would be to save Lucia from the guilt of murder, and if he was sent to the people to be a normal person, it was better not to let anyone know his whereabouts.

She hummed softly and looked back at the palace where the fire was weakening, her expression extremely painful.

"Your Highness......" Dean Kane didn't know how to comfort Lucia, so he could only lament in the end, and said, "I'll arrange for people to block the ...... near the square first," and walked away.

Mino stood silently until this time before he asked, "Donner, those knights are from the Knight Federation just now?"

In fact, he had already guessed the answer to this question without Donner answering, so when Donner told him that this was indeed the case, he did not look surprised, but frowned tightly: "Didn't the Holy See explicitly forbid them to meddle in the affairs of the Middle East?"

To answer this question, it is necessary to explain all the world situations, but there are too many secrets that cannot be said.

Donner could only shake his head slightly, "They've lost their minds...... By the way," he looked up at Mino, "don't spread the news of these knights, you can tell Dean Kane too." ”

Speaking of this, Donner suddenly realized that after tonight's rebellion and suppression, the empire had been hit hard again after the great war eight years earlier, and even the head of the Katz regiment had been murdered by Hoyle and others - no one guessed this - from now on, it was time for Minnot and others to step onto the political stage.

"What about Quisal and Paz, I didn't see them just now. Donner's mind flashed through the tall knight he had nicknamed the orcs and the taciturn but reasonable magician, and suddenly he felt a palpitation, fearing that they too had been killed by mistake.

"Quisal is on the western border of the empire, and Paz has gone to teach at the Tris Academy of Magic. Mino replied quickly.

"That's good...... That'......" Donner said as he walked over to Lucia, who, like Kane, didn't know how to comfort her.

All words of comfort seem to mean nothing.

Mino, looking at him as he was about to speak, then at Lucia, who was still in pain, let out a long sigh, and followed in the direction that Dean Kane had just left.

Donner handed the child under his armpit to Veronica, who walked away silently.

In the end, only Downer and Lucia were left.

Seeing Lucia's shoulders trembling slightly, bowing her head and crying, Donner suddenly remembered that night eight years ago. It was also a farewell to my father, and a fire that burned down the home in my memory.

It's just that Lucia's revenge for killing her father was avenged on the spot, but his couldn't even say a word.

"If I hadn't been gone for a whole year, my father wouldn't have died. Lucia said suddenly, crying.

Donner's heart thumped, the same thing he had told himself eight years ago - what a coincidence, the night Lucia returned from Cohenas, Emperor Auston died, and Donner also witnessed the death of Tom the blacksmith on the night he returned to Lant a year after leaving Lante.

The death of Tom the Blacksmith was ultimately due to the fact that the Magic Continent wanted to control Middle-earth, and the death of Emperor Auston was due to the Knights' Federation's desire to carve up Middle-earth.

Although the blacksmith and the emperor are very different, for Donner and Lucia, the meaning is the same. Two tragedies, equally heart-rending pain, also imply a fatalistic tragic ending to Middle-earth.

Donner felt the burden on him seem to be heavier.

Finally, he reached out and gently took Lucia in his arms. The girl's body was still trembling slightly, tears drenched Donner's chest, and a slight coolness came through the wet clothes. Donner lowered his head, his cheek pressed against Lucia's long, silky hair.

"It's not your fault," he comforted softly, as if he was comforting his past self: "I'll make them pay, enough price......"

Lucia folded her arms around her, as if with all her strength to hug Donner, leaning her cheek against Donner's chest and nodding vigorously.

At this moment, a round of morning sun jumped from the eastern sky and shone on the two people who hugged each other tightly.

On one side, the once-glorious Imperial Palace is a charred ruin, and on the other, the Grand Imperial Plaza is in shambles.

In the distance, the soldiers were following Dean Kane and Mino, setting up a cordon to seal off the square.

The Bol River in the morning light is hazy and beautiful, and as in the past, the river flows gently to the north of the empire.

In the province of Quentin, far from Coennas, the Boer River, which had been diverted halfway, finally returned downstream to the cheers of Wesley, Una and Layla.

In the vast land of the empire, countless farmers walked to the golden wheat fields, ready to harvest the toil of the year.

At this time, no one knew that this ancient empire would usher in the first empress in its more than 600-year history.
