"Strange, why did the pocket watch of the night stop?"

Ethereal voices echoed through the alleys.

Why, why? I don't want to hear that again! Mingming Idil has been caught, and all his men have been caught, and nothing can hurt her anymore.

But why, why did this damn time stop again?

Edward couldn't comprehend what was in front of him. It's like he can never escape the shackles of reincarnation.

"Lay down your arms!" a beautiful maiden blocked their way in a dimly lit alley.

The moonlight shone on her long blue hair, and the waist-length silky hair was as bright as the Milky Way, and the girl exuded a noble aura, like a natural princess, spotless, beautiful and enchanting.

"Who is it?"

Emilia didn't say a word, swung her sword and slashed it, but as a result, she almost died.

"Amilia, put away your holy sword and don't force me to do it. ”

At the girl's command, a group of men who had never seen before surrounded the alley, and if Emilia dared to act rashly, they strangled her with a storm of attacks.

"Damn......" Emilia cursed in a low voice.

She quietly tugged at the corner of Edward's coat to ask for help, but she couldn't get the slightest response.

Turning her head, she was surprised to see that Edward's eyes were straight and his expression was as terrifying as a monster.

"Why, why you? Why you! Tell me why!"

Suddenly, Edward screamed like crazy.

"Edward ......"

I don't know why. The girl, who was quite strong just now, was a little frightened after hearing Edward's wail, and quietly lowered her head, and even her voice was much weaker.

"Your Royal Highness, time is running out. Beside her, a middle-aged man with short blue hair said respectfully, "The city gates are all closed, and the guards are strengthening the defenses around the city walls, and if they continue to drag, the enemy will only increase." Don't go out of town now. We won't be able to leave tonight. ”

"I—I know, I'll take care of it as soon as possible, as long as you follow my orders. ”

"Yes, Your Highness Princess. The man finished. He glanced at Edward faintly. Retreated behind the girl.

The gates are closed, and the guards are increasing?

Then. Edward suddenly remembered the conversation he had listened to over and over again.

Earlier, there were two uncles chatting happily on the side of the road.

[Hey, have you heard? It's been locked down since last night.

Really?

Of course it's true. There were many times as many defenders on the other side of the gate, and the gate was closed, and even the merchants would not let them go.

Oh, my God...... Is something big going to happen?

Who knows, it doesn't matter to me anyway. 】

Edward thought that he had counted all the variables, and he thought that he would never miss any more clues, because he had already experienced countless reincarnations and witnessed the death of the night.

So, he never made a mistake again - until a second ago, he was still convinced. With thick armor, with powerful allies, what else can defeat him?

The answer is simple.

"Edward, actually, I ......"

This group of strangers acted in an orderly and disciplined manner, and not only did not one of the dozens of them talk much, but they also walked in unison, and their gestures were as if they had been carved out of a mold.

Compared to Idil's useless men, this group is almost an ace squad.

"Flando, give me a reason!" Edward asked bluntly, pointing to the girl's nose.

No matter how much he calculated, Edward never imagined that the person who finally buried his hopes would be an insignificant little woman.

The little princess of the Principality of Valentia, a member of the soy sauce club of the Exorcism Salvation Society, and the goddess in the hearts of countless students - Flando.

"Actually, Edward, I don't want to do that either. Flandall bit her lip, her gaze grew cold, and she said fiercely, "You, Edward, and you, Amilia, you two come with us." ”

"Why?"

"Don't ask so much, Edward, if you don't want to die. Flando was impatient.

Why are the gates closed? The reason is simple.

The gang of people who followed behind Flandor were all soldiers of the Duchy of Valentia! No country would allow other ** people to infiltrate their territory, and the Holy Empire found signs of their infiltration, so they responded immediately.

It's just that the people of the Holy Empire are still a step too late, and they accidentally let these murderous guys sneak into Central City.

The soldiers were given only one mission: to cooperate with Princess Flandor, obey all her orders, and then secure her safe exit from Central City.

"No, I must ask what the hell is going on? Flando, aren't you our companion? Now, you want to kill us, why?"

Flando, a delicate little woman. She is not as cold as Night, nor as arrogant as Emilia, and in Edward's opinion, she is the most standard and normal human woman.

Today, this "most normal" human being has become the executioner who broke Edward's delusions.

"Companion?" Hearing these two words, Flando's heart trembled, "I, I...... I'm just doing my job. ”

"Your mission?" Edward's eyes widened.

"Actually, I didn't join Hoag House to study, but to ......"

"Rather, you want to find a prince worthy of your sincere dedication, and then become his wife, so as to form an alliance with the Holy Empire, right?" Edward interrupted.

"Eh, how do you know?"

"I'm not stupid, of course I do! But does it have anything to do with what you're doing now?"

"Of course, do you think I came here because I liked it?" said Flando, excitedly, "there are many prophets in my country, and they have made the same prophecy. In order not to make the prophecy come true, I must make a sacrifice!"

"......Prophecy? The end of the world?" Edward suddenly remembered something.

Since Idir they can prophesy the end of the world. So, how could the Duchy of Valentia, with its better prophets, not predict future disasters?

"When disaster strikes, the Duchy of Valentia will cease to exist, so, I must stop it!" Flandall hesitated a little, she looked at the middle-aged man behind her, gave him a reassuring look before continuing, "If, if I can become the wife of some prince of the Holy Empire." The Duchy of Valentia can then ally with the Holy Empire. Immediately after that, other small countries will definitely join us. When the time comes, the power of humanity will reach an unprecedented peak!"

"In that case, you can stand head-on with the aliens who invaded the continent?"

Compared to the "sacrifice" of the Gate of Original Sin. The Duchy of Valentia is more sensible. But......

"But. I didn't make it. Tears glistened in Flando's big pretty eyes, "I'm sorry, Edward. I have one last option now. ”

"Because you didn't make Arthas fall in love with you, so you're going to take us right now to make up for your mistakes? ”

At this point, Edward was not even in the mood to cry.

"Edward, don't blame me. You and Emilia are the key to changing the future, and whichever nation captures you will survive the apocalypse. For the sake of my people, I must do this. ”

"Hehe......" Edward smiled faintly, his eyes full of sarcasm.

"Take them away!" Frank gave the order.

"Yes, Your Highness Princess!"

Without much effort, Edward and Emilia are like two lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and they can only be captured.

"Hey, wait, are you just the two of us?what about the others?what about the night?" tied himself and Amelia, and they were the only ones who spared the night.

Edward knew very well that this did not mean that Night was free, but that it was ......

"Others?" Flandor squinted at the woman in the maid's dress, lowered her voice, and whispered, "Others, no need." ”

"Hey, wait, give me wait!

No amount of supplication will help. Flando's voice was like a raised knife, mercilessly cutting off Edward's last glimmer of hope.

"Don't, don't, don't!!"

Burst!

The sharp dagger stabbed through Night's chest, cutting through her skin, breaking her ribs, and finally, piercing her chest completely.

Sizzle......

A large blood hole appeared in Night's chest, filled with bright red liquid in an instant. The gushing blood splashed in the air, like a gorgeous rose flower, at this moment, blooming gorgeously.

In the faint moonlight, the crimson rose flower swirls and dances in the small space with a dangerous allure, showing its beauty to everyone.

"Hehe, hehe. Edward smiled darkly, "You guys, you know, I'm willing to die for her." ”

"Huh, what?" Flandor exclaimed, noticing Edward's strange reaction, "Stop, stop him, don't let him escape!"

With an astonishing burst of force, Edward broke free like a wild horse and lunged at Flandor with no means of death.

"As long as you idiots are all dead, Night won't leave me again, will you......?" So this time, I'm going to kill you! I'm going to have you bury her!"

"Edward, be careful!" Exclaimed Amilia.

"Quick, stop him!!"

Countless sharp blades were aimed at Edward, and as long as he continued forward, his body would be poked into a honeycomb. He didn't plan to stop, though.

Even if it is a person, even if he kills a person, he will avenge the night!

Live or die, I don't care about it.

Kill!

At this moment, a white wind suddenly blew.

With a hula, the white snow was swept up by the wind, and beautiful waves floated in the air, obscuring people's vision, occupying the narrow space, and finally, the ice and snow melted.

"What just happened?"

Everyone was stunned by this amazing scene.

"Strange, where did he go?"

They discover that the boy who tried to die with them has disappeared with the strange snowflake.

"You take her away first, and the rest of the people come with me!

"Yes, Your Highness Princess!"

With her hands and feet tied, poor Emilia was at their mercy like a doll.

Turning her head, Emilia stared blankly at the night, which lay motionless in a pool of blood, and in addition to sadness and unwillingness, she noticed another strange thing.

The pitch-black sword that had just fallen to the ground was gone. (To be continued......)
