John was reminded that Selin knew much more than Ivan had expected, not only did she know that there were no demons infiltrating in the middle of the night two days ago, but she even knew the identities of Carlo and Angel. In the aftermath of the coup d'état in the Kingdom of Aura, Yatel Hernos, a member of the core council of the Wizarding Alliance, brought back a black-haired boy and a little girl who was burned by Yan Zòng. Laxis is quite familiar with the situation in the kingdom of Ora, so she naturally speculates on the identities of the two.

Although the girl has been unable to distinguish her face due to burns, the boy has the typical physical characteristics of the Brandes family, as well as the lifeless temperament of the Hell Knight of the Aura Kingdom. Artel Hernos claims that the boy's name is Carlo Plante, but Laxis knows that he is a descendant of the noble family of Brandes, the kingdom of Aura. The Brandes family was purged by King Vincent, but the whereabouts of Carlo Schubert Brand, who was in the royal palace, are unknown.

Laxis had no intention of denouncing Yatel, she was a member of the Wizard Alliance, and the Wizard Alliance would not have been involved in the politics of the Aura Kingdom. She only told her trusted subordinate, Caterina Selin, about this. Angel's return to the Aura Kingdom this time Selin also knew about it, and she followed Vincent's side, which was originally a bit of a precaution.

However, Serin had no idea that Angel would mutate into a monster.

“...... She said that Angel had an accident. ”

Selin walks along the forest path with Laxis, recounting what happened in the middle of the night, which Tris Carlisle later told her. But Joan didn't let Carlisle and Brian go with them. When Carlisle and Brian investigate the fire at the Fir Grove House, they get interesting news. ”

Selin shrugged with a wry smile, "I've been very busy all this time, and I haven't had a chance to investigate properly." Joan told me that the flying demons had infiltrated the city, and I didn't think Joan would be stupid enough to think I believed her. ”

"You didn't ask any further. "Laxis is as calm as ever.

"Of course not, Vincent's knight is still there. Selin shook his head happily, "I'll tell Joan and Plante to take matters into their own hands, and I'll have to show that I trust them." Joan and Plante are good partners, although she has nothing to do with Hernos, she is willing to do things for Plante. ”

"Well, since Plante tried his best to hide it, then the matter is more or less what we suspected. Laxis stared ahead, her tone a little irritated, "Sloth wants to get the princess in the hands of Attel?

"Laxis, we need to understand the reason why Hernos sent the princess back to the kingdom of Aura first?" Selin smiled and tilted her head, as if trying to comfort her, and shook her arm with a soft movement, "I haven't seen Princess Angel yet, I think what happened in the city of Price is not accidental, what Hernos did, we don't know at all." ”

Laxis turned to look at her, falling silent.

Atel Hernos had been brought to the city of Idgradhesius by his brother Asa Hernos that winter four years earlier.

Laxis was a student of Asa, and she asked Asa about Atel, but only learned that Aher had been hiding on the Messiah Island in the Jerem region. If it weren't for the sudden attack of the Seventh Demon General, Sloth, Asa might not have been able to find his long-lost brother. But less than two years after that, Asa suddenly disappeared, and the connection between him and the World Tree was inexplicably broken, and the whole person disappeared without a trace as if the world had evaporated.

Asa will not die. Laxis knew how strong Asa was. There are many people in the inner city of Idgrasius who want his life, but so far they have not succeeded. In January of this year, she also happened to meet Asa, and although it was only a brief meeting, it also gave her a glimpse of Asa's current condition—to sum it up in one sentence, that is, he was doing well.

"The ...... of the Hernos family"

Silence was half-served, and Laxis muttered in a low voice. "Once you become an enemy, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to deal with. Artel Hernos, he's actually older than you and me......"

Laxis is convinced of this. No one could tell the age of the heirs of the "Black Star", neither Asa nor Atel. There is an unlucky rumor about the mysterious Hernos family: if you know the birthday of the heir of the "Black Star", then you will be saddled with the same curse as them.

In Price, the people hiding in the cellars are still afraid to go out of the ground.

The soldiers soon began to patrol around dutifully. They didn't know what was going on in the south, but they still felt a flurry of palpitations, and the terrifying atmosphere that fell from the sky made their scalps tingle, and it must have been something terrible that had happened. When Selin returned with Laxis and went straight to the command room, the soldiers were amazed when they saw Laxis's pocket watch and Selin's deliberate gesture of respect, thinking that it was a big man coming.

Ivan woke up near evening.

He had strange dreams, blurred images of which were shrouded in a white light. He felt like it was supposed to be an island floating in the air, and when he woke up, he thought it was ridiculous.

The curtains were drawn tightly, and he couldn't see the time when he was there, and in the small barracks was a rare magic crystal heating device in Price City, shaped like a fireplace, illuminating the entire wall like the setting sun. He sat up from his bed, suddenly panicking.

The memories of the fading dreams mingled with the memories of the reality that were waking up, and he remembered that he had stood near Angel's grave before he fell unconscious. The witch attacked him, and he heard the crisp cracking of his wrist chakra, and then he went completely out of control. Something came out of the crack, and a faint warmth silently surrounded him, as if it was guarding his arms.

At the end of the dream, the island shrouded in white light grew farther and farther away from him.

27108――

He immediately lowered his head to find the trace of the golden wrist wheel, but found nothing, instead saw Carlo lying motionless on the bed next to him, looking &#;.

He tried to look at him, but his head was groggy and his body was fluttering and disobeyed. After sitting for a while, he lay down again.

"Carlo?" he hesitated, turned his head sideways, and tried to call out Carlo's name. He had never called Carlo by his first name before, and Carlo was very polite to him, always referring to him by his last name, but he and Isha always used Carlo's name when talking about him. Carlo didn't respond, and Ivan felt a little relieved at the sound of his slow breathing.

The wooden door with iron bars rattled at this moment. Ivan looked towards the door, and felt as if there were quite a few people outside the door.

The door opened, and the blonde woman with an indifferent face was wrapped in a thin twilight color. Laxis Flotica's gaze swept across every corner of the room like lightning, and Ivan subconsciously thought&#;, but didn't have time.

"Let me see your injuries. Lord Holy Magister said in an extremely cold tone. Ivan had to prop himself up again, and she saw that Asha was also following Laxis&#; and sinking.

Mistress Flotica seemed to know something.

They may ...... I can't keep Angel's secret anymore. ――
