"Ronan, do you say that my brother is good or bad, this kind of not being by my sister's side when he needs him the most, and running so far away alone and not replying.

Promised that I would always be by his sister's side, big liar! ”

In the girl's room, Alice pressed the white owl in front of her, puffing out her mouth angrily and complaining.

This is the owl that flew to the garden of her home two months ago, and after being adopted by her, she named Ronan.

The white owl listened to her words and turned her head in disgust.

But it was immediately broken back by Alice with her little hands.

"Don't be perfunctory to me, I've been serving you every day for the two months you've been home, and you're now the number one pet under Alice the Flower Fairy. You have to join me in condemning that bad brother, you know, or I won't give you something delicious. ”

It wasn't until the white owl nodded perfunctorily that Alice groomed its feathers with satisfaction.

It's just that as the grooming process progresses, Alice's expression suddenly becomes sad.

She picked up the Alice and Ronan dolls at the head of the bed, put them together with the white owl, and hugged them tightly in her arms.

"Isha is not the bad person in their mouths, she obviously didn't do anything, and those bad people can't find the reason themselves, but they put the blame on Isa's head!"

Thinking that tomorrow would be the day Isha would be sacrificed to the gods, Alice took a deep breath and looked up at the exit of the room.

It's a pity that the windows have long been firmly locked, and there are female guards outside the gate to supervise them at all times.

The first few runaways made her mother, Ms. Olenna, choose to grounded her and never allow her to run out again.

As Alice was curled up on the bed in a daze, there was a knock on the door outside the room.

"Alice, are you awake?"

It was the voice of his father, Earl Grant.

Alice looked up and said that she hadn't seen her father in days.

If it was normal, she would have responded cheerfully, and then coquettishly swindled gold coins from her father and quietly saved them for her brother who was away from home.

It's just that now she really can't keep up her spirits.

After reluctantly recovering his emotions, he responded: "Father, is there something wrong?" ”

"I know you're having a hard time, and I'm sorry about Isa."

Count Grant sighed, and then talked about the reason for his arrival.

"Tomorrow is the time for the Divine Ceremony, I can't stop it, but I can let you go inside the church now to meet Isha and say goodbye."

"Really, father?" Alice slammed the door open and looked at her excitedly.

"Of course, my daughter." Count Grant smiled and touched her head, "Let's go, my men will take you in." ”

"Hmm!" Alice nodded hurriedly, fearing that he would regret it, and then put the white owl back into the room.

"Ronan, you stay at home, my sister has something to go out."

The white owl's piercing gaze swept over Count Grant, and then fluttered its wings back into Alice's arms.

"You can't bear me, right, father, can I take it with me?" Alice looked cautiously at her father.

"Go ahead."

Count Grant paid no attention to it, calmly watching Alice leave under the guidance of the guardess.

......

Central Palace, in the main hall of the Château d'Arc lions.

The Duke of Fury sat straddled on the main seat covered with bear skin, and his broad palms were bent with his fingers bent in a holding motion.

His face became extremely serious, his arms were bruised, and all his attention was focused on the palms of his hands.

As time passed, a pale red spear that was so illusory that it was almost imperceptible gradually condensed.

But after only a second, the spear phantom shattered and vanished.

Seeing this, the subordinates beside him sighed:

"The authority of the hero's blood, even with the peak of the fourth order at the top of your rank, can't it be manifested?"

"Whoever let the emperor on his head, from generation to generation, take all the power of the hero's blood into his own bosom and use it to forge the so-called kingdom of God." Duke Fury Lion has long been accustomed to failure, and said happily.

"It's a pity that the kingdom of God has been successfully forged now, and this emperor Wilson II should have reigned in the world, but the sudden Black Death shattered the throne of God."

"This shows that the destiny is yours, and Wilson II is not worthy of God." The subordinate said.

Just as the followers of the heretical order have extraordinary powers.

As the ruling nobles of the empire, they also have the power of authority in their blood.

This is the blood of heroes inherited from the ancestors of the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms and the heroes of the continent in the era of ignorance.

It's a pity that when the empire was established, this power was suppressed by the emperor, and it was difficult for the dukes and other royal families to regain the authority of the hero's blood.

But soon it was different.

Duke Fury Lion looked in the direction of the palace, "How is the situation now?" ”

The subordinates began to report what they learned one by one:

"The situation in the Central Palace is as follows, the royal guards guarding the palace have a total of one fourth-order commander and eight third-order captains. The commander and three captains are currently monitoring our outside, and the other three are in charge of going to the diocese to manage order. ”

"There are only two captains left at the palace, including Edson."

"And on the middle of the lake avenue, Earl Grant confirmed that he would let the current crown prince, Prince Colt, go to Liuying Street in the evening. According to the Brotherhood's information, the heretics have successfully gathered and will summon the power of the heretical gods at that time, kill the prince, and stop the power of the Church. ”

"Finally, there is the diocese district, where the bishops of the fundamentalist faction have gathered five thousand divine punishers in order to suppress all the troubles before the Great Rite of the Gods. If the heretical gods appear in the evening, the church will sacrifice to the gods in advance and summon the power of the gods to suppress everything. ”

"Don't worry, the gods don't care about the mortal world." Duke Fury Lion spoke, "As long as the blood of the Ortadosius family still flows above the throne. ”

The subordinate nodded and continued to add:

"In addition to this, there is one more thing, not long ago Earl Grant sent his daughter Alice to the church through his connections in the church to be with Issa, the daughter of calamity. In terms of time, she will be enveloped in the evening when the church sacrifice ceremony begins. ”

"Daughter? Scold. After hearing this, Duke Lion's eyes turned cold.

"In exchange for the enhanced gift of the blood of a hero through the sacrifice of the blood of the closest relatives, it is no wonder that the Alliance never considered promoting this earl to the throne." The subordinate couldn't help but sigh.

"What we need is a new king who is close to the alliance and lacks the power to rule." Duke Fury Lion shook his head and said, "Not just another powerful emperor full of ambitions. ”

"Aside from Edson, how is Grant's other son now?" The Duke of Angry Lion suddenly remembered and asked.

"According to the news from Earl Draco of the Northern Province, that Highness Ronan is in remote Black Rock City, falling in love with a local viscount." The subordinate reported.

"Yes, I didn't expect Grant's disguised love to be realized in his son."

Duke Angry Lion knew very well that Count Edraco, the old fox, must have arranged for someone to tempt the other party a long time ago, and it seemed that he had not succeeded.

"It's a pity that in this era, ordinary means incompetent."

After learning about the other party's situation, the Duke of Fury lost interest in him.
