Freya's former residence was also located on the top of the castle, with a wavy balcony that stretched out to the southeast. top

"Daphne never came back, didn't she send anyone back?"

Running up a winding staircase through the towering white columns on the periphery of the castle, Ivan asked as he ran, and Freya nodded earnestly. Looks like Na'er really isn't here, and if she does, Devany will take the initiative to let them know, right?

A little disappointed, but Freya's sudden change of plans also made him very concerned.

The servant brought very strange news.

"--Listen to her, as if 'I' was really in the castle. "It's all the stranger that comes out of Freya's own mouth," said the maid, and Devany had instructed 'me' to stay in the study and finish the book she had assigned. But I haven't been back to Kadolissa for a long time, and I wasn't with you before?"

"Devonie...... Let you read?" Ivan was also confused.

What went wrong?

The maid wouldn't be lying. Freya recognized her, but she couldn't remember the names of so many servants. If the maid's words are a trap, then what is her purpose?

Where the hell is Devany Cherling?

"Did you ask her when Devany would be back?"

Ascending the last step, Ivan paused to look around.

"I asked!" Freya, who followed him closely, as if wronged, "I." I really paid attention! I wanted to find out where Daphne and Na'er were, I knew that! However, the maid didn't know either, and she said that Devany was out a lot. The old Daphne, isn't that the case......"

"How?"

"Devany didn't go out much before she became Lord of Arcatia, and I think she enjoyed living in Rosanti's Castle. However, listen to the maid. She thought 'I' already knew. Daphne seemed to have told 'me' before leaving......" Freya frowned, puzzled.

"In other words, has Daphne been with 'you' all this time?"

Suddenly. Ivan figured it out.

That's what happened.

A true queen. Actually, it's Freya Wind Spirit herself. Devany did not put anyone in her own family on the throne. It is true that someone is pretending to be Her Majesty the Queen, not Freya in front of her, but. Another "Freya".

The feather clan who pretended to be Freya was undoubtedly the one Daphne trusted, and this was the arrangement that Daphne had arranged in advance. It seems that Freya has undoubtedly become an official queen before she went to study in the Palan Continent, and even Devne, who is the patriarch of the Snow Spirit family, has no reason to push Freya off the throne. Daphne is a cautious careerist, and the best thing for her to do is to have someone else pretend to be Freya, while she is behind the scenes. With Devonne's relationship with Freya in the past, and her power in the continent of Kadolissa, I'm afraid few people will doubt her.

But if so, wouldn't Freya's adoptive mother, the former queen, recognize her adoptive daughter?

Why didn't she debunk Devonie?

"W-what?" Freya's eyes widened at the question, "I, how could I be with Daphne all the time?" she clenched her fists, blushed, and screamed in frustration. Ivan slammed a spirit, this is in the castle! Aren't you afraid to alarm the guards?

He hurriedly reached out to stop Freya, however, it was still a little too late. The sound of the guards' footsteps sounded immediately, and it sounded like more than one guard was coming towards them.

Ivan grabbed Freya by the arm and dragged her behind the nearest statue, where the statue of the Feather woman kneeling in prayer among the flowers was just enough to cover the two of them. But there's no fork in the road! as long as the guards don't stop, they'll be discovered sooner or later!

"Freya, I want to ......" Ivan lowered his head to Freya's frightened ear feathers. After saying a few words, he looked into Freya's eyes and nodded vigorously.

The guards are coming soon.

Freya sprang to her feet and hurried out.

"Ahh......h

"Eluda?"

Through the fine stone carved flowers, the guard in a silver mask walked steadily in front of Freya, and Ivan could not see the guard's expression. "Kemitaya?" the guard asked sternly.

"Why......" Freya craned her neck and took a step back, and then, as if she had regained her courage, she walked towards the guards.

Didn't understand a word......

Since the people in the castle still regard Freya as a queen, then let Freya solve the siege as a queen. He sues Freya that someone in the castle is impersonating her, and tells Freya to pretend that she is trying to sneak out of the city, as the maid said. The guards shouldn't be disrespectful to the queen, at most send her back, right?

However, the guard's tone did not seem to be as respectful as that of a maid. Won't it ...... Are these guards Devany's men?

Ivan stared intently at the guards, and as he expected, two Feather Clan silver-faced guards escorted Freya to the left and right, leading her forward.

However, it's not so much an escort as an escort, and they won't hurt Freya...... Seeing that all the guards had left, Ivan cautiously flashed out behind the statue, bent over his waist and holding a dagger, silently following the guards. Turning a fork in the road, the guards led Freya to a wooden gate that was extremely ornately carved.

Freya's residence, or her study?

Ivan hid behind a column at the corner of the fork. The guard opened the door and politely and coldly invited Freya in. At that moment, Freya, like a panicked child, had no idea what she was going to face.

It's not going to be good.

After the guards closed the door, they dutifully guarded both sides of the gate, and unless they broke in, they were afraid that they would not be able to get into the door. Ivan glanced up at the top of his head, and the pure white ceiling looked like an upside-down smooth bowl, and roses bloomed in the center of the bowl.

Let's see if there are any windows to look at......

After a moment's hesitation, Ivan lowered the magic dagger in his hand. Since the guards weren't angry at Freya's rash act of "wanting to sneak out of the city", Freya should still have a certain status for them. In their opinion, this Freya who "wants to sneak out of the city" is the one arranged by Devany to pretend to be the real Freya.

Now it is not the guards that need attention, but, the other "Freya". If Freya meets with that "Freya...... This is very likely to happen.

I wish she could calm down, I don't know what that "Freya" will do. (To be continued......)
