Chapter 498: Back to the Garden

"Mr. Yafir......" Devany slowly raised her hands, her eyes revealing a hint of timidity and a hint of sadness at not being understood.

"I'm not here to arrest you, neither are the guards, you, you're misunderstood. ”

"Where have you been, Miss Xue Ling?" Ivan didn't want to take her words like Xiulin. He grasped Daphne's magic dagger with his right hand, wearing Lightgill, and pointed cautiously at Daphne's throat.

Aisha on the side held her breath.

"Come back with me, okay? this towerβ€”" Daphne looked up cautiously, feeling the breath of magic concussion above her head. The feather guards made it rain in the dry tower.

"Ta will be fine, answer me first. Ivan's voice was calm, calm to the point of being almost impersonal. Daphne stared at him.

"I went to the Sky Mansion and was locked up in a magical enchantment by the Acting City Lord Heather. ”

Devany quickly repeated her explanations, saying that she had never been able to get out, that the Acting Lord had sent someone to assassinate Queen Freya against her will, and that she wanted to blame the humans. Halfway through, Aisha exclaimed softly, muttering "She's the queen", and then didn't say anything more, but her face was full of worry.

"β€”I have just returned from the upper block of Snow Lotus, and Miss Joan, Mr. Plante, Na'er, and Freya are all safe. ”

Devany paused.

"Who are you, the Acting City Lord?" Ivan did not mean to put down the dagger.

"I'm ......" the unexpected question made Devany stunned, "he's mine...... Distant brother. Heather Shelling. ”

"Are you from the Snow Spirit Family?" Ivan suddenly remembered that Freya had mentioned the "Snow Spirit Family", and at that time she didn't believe that Ivan knew the "Snow Spirit Family". Is that a nobleman in the Feather Clan?

Daphne's eyes flickered visibly.

β€œ...... Oh, yes. She tugged at the corners of her mouth and squeezed out a very far-fetched smile, "Mr. Yafil, may you let me say more? I never wanted to offend humans, I have been to the north, and I know that if there is a war with humans, it will not do us any good, especially my city of Arcatia. Don't worry. ”

"Well, I also don't think Miss Xue Ling would want to go to war with humans. Ivan didn't miss the change in Devine's expression, I'm afraid she still had something to hide. Forget it, so be it, Ivan doesn't want to care about the contradictions between the Yu clan, as long as Xiulin and them are safe.

"Alright, let's go back together. Is it okay to walk from the ground?"

Devany smiled helplessly.

"If they are all safe, will you believe me?"

"Miss Sheling doesn't fully trust us either. Ivan slowly lowered his dagger. Devany explained that none of the Feather Clan guards had been present during this time, and it seemed that Devany didn't want to hurt them.

"I'm sorry. He said in as gentle and sincere tone as he could.

"It's okay, caution is what it should be. Devany breathed a sigh of relief, "Miss Joan and Mr. Plante are also cautious. He is worthy of being the executor of the Magic Alliance. ”

Along the way, Daphne explains why she is hiding her identity as the lord of the city.

"Arcatia City is inhabited by all kinds of humans, and as the lord of the city, I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble because of my personal hobbies. When I travel, I always try to hide it as much as possible, pretending that I am just an ordinary Feather Clan's woman. I really can't do it, so let's just say that I have a lot of power in Alcatia City. I'm worried that if someone with a bad heart knows that I'm the lord of the city...... Of course I'm not talking about you. Daphne seemed sorry. "I think I've been hiding my identity, and if I suddenly tell you that I'm the city lord, you'll find it hard to accept, right?"

"It's okay. Aisha said curtly. When she first heard that Devany was the lord of the city, she was surprised for a while, but then she thought that it was not impossible. Can't the lord of the city go on a trip?

"All in all, please don't mind too much, I really didn't mean to lie to you. Daphne's soft voice was as usual.

The journey to the upper neighborhood of Snow Lotus was very smooth, and the Yu Clan guards knew that Daphne was the city lord, so they didn't stop her at all.

Ivan saw Daphne's maid honestly waiting under the tower, but Daphne waved her hand and was not ready to take the cable car, she knew that Ivan would not be reassured.

The tower leading to the upper block was empty, and in case of a fight, Ivan and Aisha, who were still armed with magic magic weapons, would have the upper hand, so there was nothing to worry about.

Daphne's garden was in shambles.

Under the collapsed arches and iron fences, the grass burned black, and the pale red roofs of the houses seemed to have a touch of sunset sadness.

From afar, Freya could be heard shouting Daphne's name, and it sounded like she was quite energetic.

Ivan let out a sigh of relief, it seemed that Devany was not lying at this point, and everyone in the garden was fine. Freya rushed to Daphne as if she was afraid that Daphne would not return, and Cortana jumped up excitedly.

"Brother Ivan!

"Why are you so dirty?" Xiulin looked at the two of them's clothes. Ivan, in particular, had a trail of blood on his body.

"I fought with the Feather Clan. Ivan glanced at the bloodstain with some embarrassment, and then at Daphne, who was busy comforting Freya. Presumably, Devany also knew that the Feather Clan attackers wanted to kill them, and even burned down the warehouse at the end of the shopping street, and did not want to pursue him for killing a Feather Clan.

"You-"

"It's unfortunate that we're also fighting with the Feather Clan. Xiu Lin smiled, "I guess the Yu clan who fought with you is also wearing a black cloak and dressed like a wizard?"

"Sister Xiulin already knows it......" Ai Xia sighed.

The mood is so good, even the air in the upper block of Snow Lotus seems to be much fresher, and the feeling of the rest of my life after the catastrophe is like waking up from a nightmare, and I find that the spring outside the window is bright, and the birds are singing and fragrant.

Ivan soon noticed that Carlo stared at him with suspicion and suppressed anger in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of detachment, guessing that the wizards couldn't hide the fact that they lived here. But that can be said later, until then-

"Miss Shelling......"

As soon as he spoke, he saw Daphne taking one of Freya's hands, staring into Freya's eyes with a solemn and sincere gaze that looked like a marriage proposal. He subconsciously closed his mouth.

"Her Majesty the Queen. Devany didn't seem to hear Ivan call her, "Would you like to go back to the Sky Mansion with me?" I have arrested Heather, and I wonder what you would like to do with him, Your Majesty?"
