Chapter Seventy-Nine: Offense Like a Capital Offense
Kate still stood there and didn't walk away, nor did she accept anyone's invitation to dance. She just shook a glass of fragrant red wine in her hand slightly, her eyes not fixed on the glass, but in a daze, thinking about other things.
"You're Princess Kate, aren't you?" said McCarron as she walked up to her and smiled.
She was a little flattered, but she didn't expect the Holy See Inspector to come over to greet her in person. This is very rude for her, a princess, to stand in the position of the host. If McCarron was a hot-tempered and cautious man, he could blame Kate and even the entire royal family of the Kingdom of Relia on the basis of his status as a church.
Worried that the kingdom would be affected because of her rudeness, Kate immediately put down her wine glass, bowed, and said sincerely to McCarron: "Lord Overseer, please forgive me for the rude just now. I'm really sorry to be bothered by some personal things lately. ”
McCarron was still smiling, and whispered to her, "It's okay, kid, why are you so polite." You're a princess, don't be too groveling in front of others, I'm just a small official of the church. ”
Kate didn't expect McCarron to be so modest that she didn't know what to say for a while. In fact, she didn't want to bow to the Macallon everywhere, but in this land, people absolutely believe in God, and they also absolutely believe in the Holy See. The power of the people is so strong that the power of the Holy See is in charge of the entire land of the Eastern Continent.
In other words, the Holy See is the most powerful institution in the entire Eastern Continent, and they govern the countries of the Eastern Continent. Kate's groveling to McCarron is for this reason. Otherwise, by virtue of her surname, at most she would treat Macallone with respect in terms of etiquette.
She wouldn't have known that McCarron was actually the one who was really going to kill her.
McCarron didn't kill her personally, naturally because he wanted to secretly carry out this secret operation ordered by the church's superiors. Shortly after he arrived in Caanster City, he accidentally discovered that Sain possessed the Armor of Sin. He threatens Sain with this, and at the same time suggests that the Holy See will deal with such a matter of intimidation and that it will be appreciated by the Church if the task is completed. Sai obeyed him because of this, and secretly assassinated Kate.
If Kate is his sister after all, he can't kill his own sister so unsurnamed, it can only be said that this is a naïve idea. In fact, in the past, Sain's life has always had Kate's shadow. He and Kate are half-siblings, and in the royal family, this alone can greatly alienate their feelings.
What's more, Kate has never shown brother and sister affection for Sain, and at the Sicilian Military Academy, she also harshly embarrassed Sain many times as the captain of discipline, and Sain had early thoughts of revenge on her. McCarron's appearance only gave him the courage to raise revenge to the point of obliterating Kate.
Due to Kate's last name, she and McCarron were unable to have a good conversation. And at this time, a man with a crystal mask appeared. The man interjected between Kate and McCarron, and said, "My long-admired Highness Princess Kate, I wonder if I can invite you to dance with you?"
At this moment, Kate was very angry, this guy who interjected was so rude, he actually dared to interject in front of McCaron! If he said it, it was rude of the Kingdom of Relia! After all, people in the Holy See are basically equivalent to people who stand on an international standpoint. What they say and do on the outside will affect a country.
But unlike Kate's reaction, Sain, who was standing in the corner on the other side, smiled smugly at this time. He couldn't be mistaken, the man who interjected between Kate and McCarron was none other than Hadar. Hadar wears a mask and can control the water element to disguise his appearance, so it is not difficult to sneak into the ball.
Hadar is coming! He's coming to kill Kate! Sain only knows that there will be a good show to watch.
Standing on the tallest tower, Age's brow suddenly furrowed, and the long-haired blue man who approached Kate was likely to be bad for Kate. Then he looked at Sain and saw that Sain was smiling...... That person must be Hadar that Sain found yesterday! Hadar wants to kill Kate!
At this point, Hadar raised his glass and invited Kate to drink with McCarron. Although Kate is very unhappy with Hadar's behavior, at the prom, she must act like a princess and not show emotional problems at will. The prom greatly restricts her movements, which is one of the reasons why she asks Edge to take care of her killer before the prom.
Hadar invited her for a drink, and McCarron was surprisingly lifeless, calmly raising a glass together. Seeing this, Kate naturally couldn't refuse, and raised her glass to drink.
Seeing this, Edge, who was on top of the tower, immediately jumped down from the sky and shouted at Kate, "Don't drink that wine!"
But his reminder didn't help, and he was so far from the ballroom that Kate couldn't hear it. Kate raised her glass to McCarron and Hadar in front of her, and took a sip of wine.
Hadar's eyes were fixed on her throat, watching to see if the red wine she had just drunk was flowing down her throat. When he saw a stir in her throat like swallowing, Hadar smiled triumphantly and wickedly—it worked! He didn't expect the assassination of Kate to go so smoothly! Yes, the moment Kate drank the red wine, he was doomed.
He is adept at controlling the water element, including all the water substances that he has cast spells. The sip of red wine that Kate had swallowed just now had already cast the Water Elemental Chilling Ability when he approached Kate. Now, as soon as he casts the spell, the mouthful of red wine that Kate has just swallowed can form a sharp thorn and pierce Kate's throat.
Kate had swallowed the red wine, and there was no doubt that her surname was in Hadar's hands.
McCarron had already noticed Hadar's actions, which was why he didn't resent Hadar interfering between him and Kate. His intention was to want Kate to die. After noticing Hadar's actions, he looked at Sain in the corner of the side, but he didn't expect Sain to find such a powerful figure to kill Kate.
However, although he smiled peacefully when he looked at Sain, he had already developed murderous intent towards Sain. The mission of obliterating Kate is about to be completed, and Sain knows about it, so he naturally can't keep it. If Sain really believed that he would be appreciated by the church for killing Kate, he would be naïve.
"Is there a problem?" asked Kate, who had drunk the red wine, putting down her glass and turning to Hadar. She noticed that Hadar was different, and Hadar was smiling lightly, inexplicably.
Hadar bowed very gentlemanly and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm just amazed by your beauty, Your Royal Highness the Princess." Since Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Inspector have something to discuss, then I will retire first. ”
With that, he turned his back to Kate as his hand made the seal. At this time, some water droplets in Kate's throat were slowly condensing, forming a sharp cone-shaped thorn. When the stab is complete, that's when Kate's throat is broken.
And Kate still didn't know anything about it.
After turning around, the smile on the corner of Hadar's mouth became more and more obvious, and it became more and more rampant...... If he hadn't forced himself to endure it, he would have laughed triumphantly! Because Kate was about to die at his hands!
Haha!
He cast a spell to condense the last drop of water in Kate's throat, and Kate will be killed in no time!
"Kate !!"
However, no one expected that at this time, a shocking shout suddenly sounded from high in the sky. The shouting was extremely anxious, and it was all directed at Kate.
Everyone at the dance was attracted by this sound and looked high into the sky. Then they saw a great sword, a great sword that was exaggeratedly large! Behind the big sword was a man with worried eyes.
He's naturally Aggie.
"Age?" Kate was surprised and annoyed at the moment she saw him. What does this guy want to do? He wants to sabotage the ball? In front of McCarron, the Church Overseer? Damn it, absolutely not! If he does this, he will commit a capital crime!
"This damn civilian......" Sain's face turned hideous when he saw Edge. This arrogant civilian isn't dead yet?!
"Oh!!" Lisa, Tuckerley, Orwell, and most of the nobles were very surprised when they saw Edge, and thought that this guy who jumped from the sky was incredible, what the hell was he going to do?
"Guards, Guards, stop him, don't let him hurt Her Highness the Princess in the slightest!" As the captain of the guard, Balza of the Inquisition was appointed to be in charge of the escort of the ball because of his high strength. When he saw Age, he immediately burst into applause, believing that Edge, who was holding a great sword, had come to assassinate Kate.
But Edge doesn't pay attention to them, his goal is Kate, yes, but not to kill Kate, but to save Kate. His face was full of worry, Kate had just drunk the red wine that Hadar had come into contact with, and as a master who could control the water element, Hadar would definitely kill him in the red wine. If you don't get out of the red wine that Kate just drank that Hadar had spelled, something will happen to Kate.
But how do you get the wine that Kate has drunk? Edge's mind was spinning as she swooped down, and it was evident that this was a very difficult question. Can you get something out of the way if you drink it? Unless...... Unless it's the water that has been cast condenses and gets the whole piece out.
And this should be how Hadar kills people!
Edge's guess made her decide to take a gamble.
"Bang!"
As he was about to swoop down to the ballroom, Edge saw Balza leading a group of guards to defend him. He knew that the guards had misunderstood that he was going to be bad for Kate, but he knew that Kate was dangerous at this time, so he didn't have time to explain slowly. He had to save Kate before Hadar could kill Kate. In order not to get in the way of the guards, he blocked the Sky Breaking Sword in front of him and smashed it sideways at the group of guards.
The group of guards didn't dare to let such a big sword hit, and they dodged one after another. Bazar had to use his jack-pound axe to parry, but even then he was hit by the Void Breaker and fell to his knees. The ground was hit with tremendous force, and the ground in the small area shattered, forming a small crater.
Holding Balza in check, Edge rushed straight to Kate.
Kate didn't dodge, she didn't think Agey would hurt her. She has affection and trust for Age.
But to her surprise, and to the surprise of everyone at the ball, Edge swooped in front of her and grabbed her, causing her to slide out with Edge. At this time, Edge suddenly kissed her on the mouth. At the same time, Aegie also pressed one hand on her chest, pressing one by one.
What an offense to a princess for such an act?! What a shame it is! No, it can be said to be a great insult!
But Aegie did. Why?
Kate forgot to react, her eyes widening. This, this, this...... This damned, damned, damned scoundrel! Despicable villain! How dare you do that!!
He had to die.
Kate was really completely outbursting.
And the others at the ball, thought it was a dream. Oh my God, no, who is kissing Kate, touching Kate's breasts? Oh my God, it's definitely a dream. If not, then the young man with the big sword is guilty of a capital crime, a capital crime that deserves to be cut by a thousand knives.
