Chapter 70: Why
When Kate arrives at the dungeon, she sees that all the guards outside the dungeon have fallen. Enraged, she drew her sword and rushed into the dungeon. She guessed that all of this was done by Age, who had killed many of the guards in order to escape.
But it turned out that her idea was completely wrong. When she burst into the dungeon, she saw Edge pressing his sky-breaking sword against the shoulders of a masked man. The masked man was dressed like an Assassin, and he was now subdued by Edge.
"What's going on?!" Kate shouted at Edge, noticing that Edge was suppressing a masked man, and glancing at the dungeon that was already in disarray.
Aegie listened to her tone like a question, and he was very upset. Now that I've fallen out with her, there's no need to pretend to be respectful to her. So he glanced at Kate, showed a very disdainful expression, and said with a wicked smile: "Your Royal Highness, if you still look like you are high to me, don't blame me for being rude." ”
"You ......" Kate couldn't always find a reason to explain Edge's behavior. Why is a civilian so arrogant, do you really think that you don't dare to kill him? Damn it...... This is true. She can deceive others on the surface, but she can't deceive herself. She knew that in her heart, she really didn't want to kill Aggie.
It's not even resentment, it's just a dissatisfaction. A kind of unwillingness to know Age's identity, want to investigate but can't investigate, and a kind of uncontrollable uneasiness, so that she has always maintained an extreme attitude towards Age.
"If you're a little kinder, I might be able to hand over to you this assassin who tried to kill me. ”
"You know what? This assassin is here to kill me. Because his employer thought I knew something, he wanted to kill me. It's because of you that I'm in this situation, and it's all my ...... to blame."
"Beware of him killing himself!" Agiburn spoke slowly to Kate in a light-hearted and teasing tone, but Kate suddenly let out a loud shout and quickly swept over the masked man he was holding down with his Void Breaking Greatsword.
It was all a little sudden, and he couldn't react a little. By the time he reacted, he saw the masked man's mouth slightly open, his eyes sunken, and he was not breathing. As Kate drank, the masked man committed suicide in order not to be found out by him and Kate.
"What a responsible assassin!" said Edge, looking at the masked man who had died by suicide, his face filled with exasperation. He wanted to use the assassin as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Kate again, but he didn't expect the assassin to commit suicide. Not only will she not be able to negotiate with Kate at this time, but she will be scolded by her.
"Are you a pig? didn't even notice that!" Sure enough, Kate glared at him and cursed.
However, he was already angry at the loss of the masked man's bargaining chip, and now that he was scolded by Kate, he was even more annoyed. Since it is a falling out relationship with Kate, then there is no need to scruple. He didn't care if Kate was a princess, grabbed Kate's hand, and shouted: "Yes, you are right, I am a pig!"
Edge scolded Kate, feeling very childish.
But he didn't stop, and continued to scold: "You idiot princess, do you think that if you are beautiful, you can always be on top? A woman looks like this, stripped naked, lying in bed, and no man wants to touch you!
He scolded Kate very explicit and very fiercely.
Kate looked at him, gasping for air. She didn't know whether to be happy or what, she didn't expect that a princess would hear such a thing in her lifetime...... I am afraid that this kind of words will not only be thought of by myself, but also by the people of the whole kingdom!
But such words were said by a foreign civilian!
At this moment, Kate was as still as water, and she really wanted to get into Age's stomach to see what Age's mind was like. Why is there such a man in the world who is angry with himself and does not pay for his life, but he has never had real killing intent towards him.
She really hadn't thought about killing Edge, even if Edge had offended her more than ever before - verbally, of course.
"Maybe we should have a good talk. What Edge didn't expect was that he said something like that, and Kate was silent for a few minutes before suddenly speaking calmly to him.
This overwhelmed him, Kate can't be crazy, right?
Of course, Kate is not crazy, maybe things must be reversed. She felt the ultimate offense at Edge's words, but it was that she was able to calm down and think as if she had seen it. Looking at Age, she thought back to what had just happened, and wondered if Edge was the one who had snatched the black scales.
Murrayham had just been attacked in the lab, and the black scales had been snatched away. She had suspected that Edge had done it, but now that she thought about it, Edge had a full alibi. I went to the dungeon to see him before returning to the lab, and in the process, it was impossible for Edge to escape and reach the lab to snatch the black scales. What's more, he was also attacked by assassins, all of this is definitely not a coincidence, maybe Edge is really not the murderer who caused all this.
She watched as Edge guessed a lot, and slowly she gave up the conjecture that the black scales were snatched by Edge, and thought that she had indeed misunderstood Edge.
Aegie reacted from surprise and smiled at Kate, "I'm honored to hear you, we really should have a good talk." Of course, if you still don't believe me, you can keep me locked up in the dungeon. But ......" he said as he looked at the destroyed dungeon and smirked, "You'll have to consider another dungeon." ”
Kate gritted her teeth at this and snorted, "That's why you've never been afraid that I'll kill you! ”
"Don't say that, it's actually ......"
"I'd advise you to settle down!" Kate interrupted his smugness abruptly, and warned him, "Don't you realize that even if you do whatever you want, it's just a few small palace guards to come out against you?" ”
"With your current strength, it's not enough to alarm the real power in the court!" Kate said something meaningful.
Edge no longer smirked. Kate said this, and he realized what had happened. Indeed, no matter what movement he makes, it seems that only some soldiers come to deal with him, and there are few who are really powerful. Could it be that he is really so weak, and the powerful people in the court don't take themselves seriously at all?
"Behind this court, there is a power you can't imagine. Even if I am a princess, I only live in a superficial world. Otherwise, this would not be the royal capital of a kingdom!"
"Let's go, let's go have a good talk. Kate stopped talking so much nonsense and turned away.
Edge stopped talking, and there was a reluctance and ambition in Kate's eyes when she said those words just now. It could be seen that she was quite dissatisfied, dissatisfied that she could not touch the real world in the court.
Night.
In a towering bell tower in the palace, one person is half-kneeling, and the other person puts his hand behind his back, looking like a big man. The half-kneeling man was Prince Sain, who had not been seen for a long time. The man who looked like a big man, with a hood and a long flowery white sheep's beard, must have been an old man.
"Just let you kill Kate, but you are fighting with a little miscellaneous fish, which disappoints me and the church even more!" the hooded old man snorted slightly, not angry.
Sain was very hesitant, and kept nodding his head: "Please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive the church." Give me one more chance, and I'll kill Kate!"
The hooded old man was silent for a long time, and then said slowly: "Go down, one last chance!"
"Yes, I won't disappoint the Overseer again!" Sain nodded as if he had been pardoned, and hurried away.
After Sain left, the hooded old man, the overseer in Sain's words, looked up at the sky and was silent. When the evening breeze blew his hood off, he sighed and said to himself, "Princess Kate, you are a very good child, and you should have a brilliant future. But...... You ought not to know about the Adoras. ”
"The Church has decreed that all those who have come into contact with the Forbidden Code must die!"
"Maybe it's a crazy new generation conspiracy, but maybe it's also a great innovation of a new generation! Before the dawn, there will always be the darkness of the dawn! Come, together with the old decay, for the dawn, dedicate yourself to the dawn!"
Talking to himself, the hooded old man disappeared in an instant.
Kate must have died and could not have imagined that the reason why she was assassinated was only because she had been exposed to the Holy See's "Forbidden Code" when she was a child. Behind it is a 'great' plan of the Holy See. She had the great misfortune of stumbling into the time of the implementation of this great plan of the Holy See, and although she had not yet been killed, it had only just begun.
