"Brother, what's wrong?" the younger siblings ran towards this side with small steps, their faces full of unreasonable doubts. Suddenly seeing the calm eldest brother change his face like this, they who have lived with him for a long time will inevitably feel doubtful.

However, the reason for the sudden change in Ewell's face was precisely because following the children, it was obvious that there were some clues, and the court knights who were rushing towards this side.

Ewell still had a little bit of luck and wanted to talk to them, but the sharp murderous aura that was evident from there made him stop in his tracks. This feeling was all too familiar to him, like the boss of a fabrication store staring at his body and trying to extract more labor, like the big children who had been five digits before coveting the food in their arms and beating themselves up, it was obviously the momentum of seeking something from himself.

However, there is nothing else to have in his possession other than his family.

Ewell paused and swallowed his original thoughts, replaced them with a murderous aura that did not belong to his age, and was beginning to take shape. It may already be an irresistible combat force for ordinary people, but Evel's age is too young to pose a threat to the court knights.

The knight at the head strode over with a frown, his body filled with that angry anger, which was like a catalyst that strongly increased Ewell's sense of crisis. Only afterwards did he know that the knight who shot at him didn't have much malice, but whoever found the thief would inevitably bring some anger, even if the other party was just a child.

I don't know what will happen if I get caught, and ordinary people don't care, but the other party is a big man who is a big man if he doesn't die. This unknown breeds fear, and some people may be paralyzed by fear, but this fear undoubtedly brings strength to Ewell.

You have to protect your family!

"Hey, little ghost!" the knight, who looked hideous at this moment, stretched out his hand to the little boy, "What kind of despicable thing have you done, you can come and explain it to me!"

Under such a compelling power, the little boy holding the receiving ring trembled, and was so nervous that he couldn't even speak. Because I didn't know how I was being treated, tears of fear couldn't stop flowing.

He did wrong, but who didn't do anything wrong? In Ewell's heart, the little boy's weight did not lose half a point, and he was still the most important person to himself, so ......

"Don't touch him!" roared Evel.

The potential was fully activated, and a slight invisible cyclone suddenly appeared and disappeared around him, and the corners of his clothes were taken off and danced, and his movements accelerated instantly, and his qualities had surpassed the highest level of his age. He didn't feel it himself, but this was indeed the moment when his body was at its most powerful.

Armed color domineering, just for a moment, the blessing brought by has already made Ewell reach a certain height.

This change made Pimes, who was not far away, squint his eyes.

The small palm and the knight's rough hand touched together at this moment, and the next moment the knight only felt that the world was spinning, and then his brain somehow fell heavily to the ground, and the exercised body was conscious away at this moment. It took a few breaths to recover.

When the vision became clear, he found that the knights who came with him had surrounded the children in front of him. Knocking down a knight with one move, he can no longer be regarded as an ordinary person.

"Go, go, go!" said Evel, roaring as he expelled his younger siblings from the moment he started, as they disappeared around the corner of the street, before he sprinted towards the nearest knight. The knight was shocked, as if he had been stared at by a fierce beast, and his limbs were under his control, but his whole body was incredibly unable to move.

The shock color is domineering, and it has an absolute deterrent effect on creatures that are weak compared to themselves.

Ewell suddenly pulled out the dagger hidden at his waist and stabbed it towards the figure in front of him.

However, the last moment Ewell was rushing like a tiger pounced, and the next moment he was already slamming into the ground like a fly that had flown away. Even the dagger's attack was interrupted, and the blade snapped out of thin air in mid-air, and the whole flew out of the distance.

Because there are more powerful beings than him.

The clever magician, Pimes, only took a small strand of his magic power and acted on Evel's feet through his hidden vision, and completely defeated him. With his absolute strength, he completely suppressed Ewell, who had turned into a beast at this moment.

"You...... I have the potential to become a strong person. The majestic old man walked quietly with a steady step, "I'm curious why you are so ...... at such a young age."

"Old youkai, don't touch him!" the childish voice startled Ewell's heart. You don't have to look to know that the four children who had let them escape before had returned, and with their voices trembling with fear, they threw stones at the group of knights full of burly men.

"Little imps, don't be rude to the Prime Minister!" one of the knights was so angry that he almost drew his sword on the spot.

"I see...... Pimes laughed softly, kindly, and finally stopped the knight from drawing his sword.

"Stupid, why did you run back?!" Evel struggled in vain like a trapped beast, unable to break free from the shackles of a mere magical force, even though he used all his strength and bones to gurgle from it.

"Please, the ring can be returned to you, it's my fault, all the actions were instigated by me, you can do whatever you want me, but don't hurt ...... Huh?" just as Evel struggled to utter the words of pleading, he found that the restraints on his body suddenly lightened, and he completely regained the ability to move in the next moment.

But with a wave of his hand, the old man completely eliminated the restraining effect of his magic power on Avier.

For a short time, he was speechless due to shock, but Ewell still stood up in time, and the younger siblings who had gone and returned regrouped to his side, but instead of the timid appearance that had been hiding behind him before, he was brave enough to stand in front of him. The four children, without exception, did so, as if they were afraid that the strangers would take away their dearest brother.

As he gasped, Ewell took the ring from the little boy and threw it far away, where he was caught by Pimes.

Then he bowed his head sincerely, and pressed the little boy together, and said loudly, "I'm sorry!"

"No, it's not a big deal. Pimes handed the ring, which contained a lot of money, to the knight beside him, and it was really nothing to him, even if it was indeed his savings that he had accumulated for many years.

Instead, he looked at the children in front of him with great interest. Behind the knights, there were many onlookers who knew Evel and had received his favors, but when he was subdued before, none of them dared to stand up.

Adults who have matured physically and mentally are no match for a few children.

"I know why you're so wild. But......" Pimes's tone still had doubts that could not be concealed, "It looks like they are not your brothers and sisters, why do you work so hard for them?"

"They're my family!" Exclaimed Evel eagerly, "even if we are not really related by blood, as long as we are connected to each other, we are true brothers and sisters!"

Pimes shuddered at the stinging words, and then gently closed his eyes, as if to make a deep sigh for what he had heard. "yes, yes, you're right. I've lived so long that I've forgotten such a simple truth. ”

"Child, keep the mood, one day you will be a great man......" Pimes threw a black object in this direction, and a slightly frightened Evel caught it steadily, only to find that it was a heavy dagger with a black scabbard.

Ewell had been using the nameless [Black Iron] level Noble Phantasm more than ten years later, and even if he could obtain a higher-level Noble Phantasm with his position later, he had never replaced it.

"If I break one of your daggers, I'll take this as compensation. ”

Pimax beckoned the knights to leave, but stopped before leaving, paused and said without looking back.

"Child, you have the people you need to protect, and we also have the presence that we want to protect absolutely. Your brothers and sisters are your only ones, and my people are my own. Are we about the same in this regard?"

"It's hard to feed four children, come here, serve the country, I can give you the conditions to no longer have to go cold and starve. You just have to keep the mood and love the people of this country as you love your younger siblings, and you can get all of that. ”

"Fight for your own heart. ”

~~~ (time dividing line) ~~~

"Do you still refuse to say anything?" is still the same voice, after more than ten years of refinement, the owner of the voice has aged both in appearance and spirit, but only this majesty has not diminished.

Ewell is no longer the hairy boy he used to be. Deep in the dark cage, the interrogated body sent a signal of dangerous exhaustion, but even in this state, Ewell pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed.

The reason why he returned to the royal capital alone was to wait for this moment, an opportunity to talk to him alone. It is to make their own answers, so that the battle that belongs to them finally comes to an end.

"I'm not going to say anything. The body was in pain and wailing, and the voice was tired, but there was great joy in the feelings, "Fight for your heart, didn't you tell me?!What ......do you want me to betray my allies?"

"I refuse!!" every cell in the body shouted!!

Pimax sighed deeply and turned to leave the dark dungeon. (To be continued.) )
