Chapter 590: Special Measures
"I haven't been back to Kadolissa for a long time. Daphne lowered her hands and clasped them slowly behind the back of her chair.
"Over the years, I have rarely returned to my hometown, and sometimes, I can't come back once a year. She looked dazed and sighed softly, "After all, I am a city lord, Arcatia City is where I should stay, my hometown, Kadolissa, has become more and more strange to me......
Ivan looked at her without saying a word, and suddenly, he held his breath and quickly shook his head at Na'er, with a solemn expression.
A little off.
What does Daphne want to do?
The sherell family's giant ark steadied the sea, pushing the rolling waves away.
If it's daytime, you can already see the coastline clearly out of the window. Nog Island is only a few kilometers from the forest on the other side, and the Ark has already changed course halfway, and it is still very close to the shore, but where will it go?
Ivan moved his chair slightly, still holding Na'er's arm with one hand and the dagger in his pocket with the other.
"I'd like to ask you to do me a favor. He said solemnly to Daphne.
"Hehe, Mr. Yafil, you didn't trust me from the beginning, did you?" Daphne laughed unexpectedly, with a smile of regret on her face, which was brighter than all her previous smiles.
Her right hand touched her left wrist, and on her wrist was a silver bracelet with spatial magic.
"Didn't you trust me......? Is this happening?" Ivan felt really disappointed. He didn't want to expose Devonie at this time, those questions just now. It's also to stall for time, and besides, try to keep Daphne from noticing that they didn't touch the supper.
The table in front of her was only one meter wide, and Devany was so confident, probably because she was ...... She knew very well that Lightgill, the Sword of Illusion, wasn't in Ivan's hands?
"You saved Sister Xiulin, we should be able to talk about it. Ivan's tone was a little sad.
"What does Mister Yafel want to talk about?" said Daphne, still smiling.
β...... Actually, I don't want to meddle in the affairs between the Feather Clan. β
Suddenly.
Devany bounced up from her seat, and between her and Ivan, the one-meter-wide dining table was sliced by an ice blade. The table collapsed. Plates and hot late-night snacks were all flipped to the floor.
"I would like to ask you to tell the guards outside not to come in, and also, please do not take out your weapons. Ivan pulled Na'er to stand across from him, his right hand hanging down. The dagger that Devany had given to Nalle was glowing with a cold icy blue light.
"You'reβ" Daphne furrowed her brow. She saw the dagger. Suddenly gasped.
"Brother Ivan?" Nalle didn't understand what was going on. She tilted her face in disbelief.
"Okay, I see. With another awkward wry smile, Daphne raised her hands helplessly. "I was negligent, and you're really, really, alert. Well...... Don't worry about the guards and servants outside, as long as I don't call them in, no matter what happens in the house, they won't come in. Mr. Yafil is worthy of being the youngest executor of the Magic Alliance, is it Freya who has told you and me about the matter of the Snow Spirit family?"
She didn't say anything. Ivan replied coldly, "She still trusts you, and I don't want her to know, if you can, stop the boat." β
"Looks like I have no other choice. Devine turned her head to the side, "I'm really careless, I know Mr. Yafil's abilities for a long time, and you don't just have the power of magic crystals." β
She calmly admired the neatly steaming section of the dining table, and her gaze gradually drifted to the staircase leading downstairs.
"My weapon is in this bracelet, you can take it. However, the captain would not have stopped the ship without my orders. At least you'll have to ask the maid outside to give me a talk. β
"Good. Ivan nodded, and he let go of Na'er, grabbing the dagger cautiously closer to Daphne. However, just then, there was a brisk footstep on the other side of the stairs.
Why at this time-
Several things happened at the same time. Daphne jerked her left hand in front of her, and her body quickly retreated diagonally back like a wild deer, and the outline of a short bow appeared in the faint light, and Freya let out a sharp exclamation and ran towards Daphne, and Nalle turned around and ran towards Freya.
Immediately, the sharp ice cubes shattered in the air, making a crisp pop like a glass lamp bursting.
"Daphne!"
Freya was stopped by Na'er and hugged by the waist, and the two fell to the ground with a thud. Freya's round eyes were full of horror and ...... Wrath. Devany clung to the wall behind her, a ring of crushed ice lingering around her ice-blue shortbow. In fact, she didn't have time to summon the elemental elves at all, and if it weren't for Ivan coming upstairs before Freya walked in front of her, she probably wouldn't even have a chance to fight back.
"Yafil, you bastard, what are you doing!" Freya yelled at the top of her voice, "How can you hurt Daphne!
Please, can you please not make trouble at this time?Ivan wanted to plug his ears, but he couldn't take his eyes off Daphne, and the short bow in Daphne's hand was filled with a sinister chill.
The guards were clearly alarmed, and without looking back, Ivan had already heard their footsteps. Originally, it would have been good to just control Devonie and force her to stop the boat and let them go, but I didn't expect it...... Now the plan is messed up by Freya.
The corners of Daphne's mouth lifted, her eyes suddenly falling to Freya, who was struggling, and Na'er, who was holding her tightly, and she whispered something. Ivan took a step forward suddenly, and on the trajectory of the dagger, broken Xiaoice crystals flew in all directions, but then Ivan panicked, and the ice crystals flew in more than one direction, and several ice crystals that shone with cold glow stabbed directly at Na'er and Freya.
Na'er subconsciously pushed Freya away, a head dodging ice crystals as sharp as throwing knives. Devine jerked to the side, and before she could hit the ground, the bowstring in her hand was plucked again. Ivan turned around and kicked the broken dining table, a dozen thin ice needles piercing the dining table in unison.
With ice chips on the floor, he slid down from the flying dining table to Daphne, who had just landed. He knew too well what Daphne wanted to do - to distance herself, as Daphne's weapon was a shortbow, and she could use more powerful magic if she could.
The dagger in Ivan's hand was so small that he wouldn't have been able to touch Daphne a meter away if it weren't for the help of ice magic, so he couldn't let Daphne get too far away from him. It's too late to arrest Devonie now, even if there are many guards outside, it's impossible for them not to think about the safety of their master. (To be continued......)
ps: p.s. take my mother to Beijing early tomorrow morning to see the heart, and I'm going to be missing for a while......
