Isabel, in Yulia's form, sat quietly and obediently in the carriage, and opposite her was the beautiful woman with long white and blonde curly hair.

The carriage was not an accomplice to the counterpart, nor was it the kind of roadside open-top carriage at all.

It was the carriage of a knight or merchant family, with fruit and delicate decorations. The soft cushion underneath the body makes the carriage ride less torturous.

It was stopped by the woman from the side of the road.

Just a face, the other party is completely controlled.

Without asking her what she was going to do, the other party got out of his carriage very smoothly and naturally, and gave it to her. When the people in the car warmly said goodbye to her and left, they didn't feel anything wrong at all, and they didn't even look at Yulia the whole time.

When Yulia got into the car, the curtain of the carriage was closed. Therefore, from the outside, it is not visible at all that "Yulia" is here.

And in the dim space, the woman's pupils were filled with a pink halo. In the confined space, the sweet smell also becomes more and more intense.

Isabel clearly felt that her consciousness was gradually blurring again. Soon she would fall back into her bewitched state.

- This is absolutely not a no-no.

The thought crossed Isabel's mind.

Although she didn't know who this woman was, the other party was obviously here to trouble Yulia.

Even Bishop Mathers was quietly controlled by her, so she should be a transcendent of the fifth energy level.

Then, this person is most likely the Countess Emma from Star Antimony.

If you reveal your true identity at such a time, it is indeed possible to terminate the other party's criminal behavior...... But the bigger picture is getting into deeper trouble.

Whether it is to let one's mind be completely controlled, thus becoming a puppet; or being manipulated to hurt Ivas and Yulia, destroying their own relationships; Or simply try to attack or assassinate yourself in order to kill your mouth...... Even if it was just to wash away her memories and then take her to find the real Yulia, Isabel would never be able to accept.

…… Ivus, who had drunk too much yesterday, hugged himself and cried while calling for his mother. He also speaks illogical gibberish like a dream.

At that time, Isabel knew for the first time that Evas, who seemed to know everything and could do anything, had such a vulnerable moment; It was only then that she realized that she could never regard Ivas as her god, and that Evas was never her savior.

He is also a mortal, and he also has his own loves, hatreds, and pains. Although he always smiled casually and confidently, he just kept the pressure in silence.

Isabel must not leave all the blame and pressure on Ivus.

Ivus saved her, and she had to protect all that Ivus valued.

- That's fair!

If she can't even protect an innocent little girl like Yulia, how can she confidently swear in front of the people that she will protect Avalon?

So Isabel began to lay out the means to wake herself up before she lost consciousness again.

Isabel instinctively realized that Countess Emma's means of controlling her spirit should be that kind of aroma. It's not that you'll turn yourself into a puppet, but it's that you'll dispel hostility and generate great goodwill. It's as if they've been friends for decades.

But when the other party calls his or her name wrong, there will be a moment of sobering up. If the other party doesn't continue to control her after that, she can break free from the control.

Therefore, Isabel needs to get the other party to pronounce the name "Yulia" after leaving the carriage.

And if you want to lay it out, you have to take some risks.

— that is, the battle that belongs to her.

After clarifying the purpose and the risks, Isabel looked up, opened the curtain of the carriage in a relaxed posture and looked out the window. Her movements surprised Emma, but Emma didn't move. Just looked at Isabel with interest and saw what she wanted to do.

"We ...... Where are you going? ”

She made Yulia's soft, timid voice, which wasn't hard for Isabel to play...... Just imitate your past self.

There was a hint of resistance and timidity in her eyes, and she gently pursed her lips.

"Are you scared?"

Emma asked softly, reaching out and gently taking Yulia's hand.

She gently rubbed the back of "Yulia's" hand and asked casually, "Can you tell my sister what you think?" ”

Isabel felt a strong feeling of vertigo rise from the bottom of her heart. It's like taking a hot bath and reclining into a warm quilt after a hard and tiring study. It's as if as soon as you relax, you will go straight to sleep.

She closed her eyes slightly, balancing the sense of imbalance in her heart, trying to resist the relaxation in her heart, and at the same time making a look of reminiscence: "My brother told me...... Lloyd's is dangerous, don't let me walk around......"

"It's okay," Emma chuckled softly, reaching out to hug Yulia, pressing her forehead against hers, and saying in a childlike tone, "Sister will protect you." ”

Isabel didn't dare to exert the slightest force, let alone show the slightest resistance.

She kept thinking of Ivus's face, trying to remember every word he had said to distract her. Cut back on that incomparably strong, unnatural sense of intimacy.

At the same time, Isabel opened her eyes, looked at Emma with curious eyes, and asked casually, "If we go to Lloyd's, are we going to go abroad to play?" ”

"Yes afterward. But this time, I took you to recognize the way first. ”

Emma chuckled and explained to her seriously: "Sister has something to do in the past two days, so I can't just take you away." You should first remember how to get to the Lloyd's building...... When your brother goes to the round table the day after tomorrow, you sneak out. Remember? ”

She was a little afraid to deal with Ivus now.

Although Aihuas was only a weak person of the third energy level, the special situation that was not clear about the explanation last time made her a little jealous.

As a succubus, Emma's personality is necessarily biased towards caution. If she could, she wished it was best not to fight the whole time—not that she wasn't good at fighting, but that she didn't like that.

She'd already dealt with Ivas before, and in a sense, she'd revealed her abilities and part of her purpose. And now she has to stay here for a few days. If you just kill Yulia and take her heart at this time, her body will easily expose itself.

If you do fight on the glass island, it will be troublesome.

And one heart may not be enough - maybe opening the seal will require more blood than just the heart. Carrying a living person and repeated treatment can ensure that there is enough blood, which is certainly much better than carrying only the heart.

So although "Father" said it, it really can't be done with only the heart. But she didn't want to disappoint her father...... If you can, it's better to take Yulia away.

And it would be safer to have a hostage in hand.

By the time the other party found out that Yulia was missing, she had already arrived at Star Antimony. And when you delay playing the ball with Avalon, you can take the opportunity to sacrifice her.

- Because of this, Emma needs to get Yulia to "come over herself" at the right time.

There was a time when the Eye of Avalon was definitely not working, and a time when Evas was definitely not available. Don't alarm anyone...... Only she could do it herself.

And now, she just took Yulia to play, and took her back after a casual walk.

If she was caught by the "Eye of Avalon" now, she could explain it casually, after all, she really didn't do anything.

In fact, she has implanted her psychological hints into "Yulia".

When it comes to "your brother will go to the round table meeting the day after tomorrow", the hint planted in the bottom of my heart will explode directly. At that point, she will come straight to her own volition.

"Remembered."

At the moment of being "hinted" to actively intervene, Isabel's wall of thinking was completely melted.

She nodded earnestly and replied from the bottom of her heart.

And the last image that stayed in her mind was Ivas holding herself and calling her mother last night.

She threw herself into Emma's arms, arched her back like a kitten, gently rubbed her head against the other party's soft breasts, and made a delicate voice: "Woo~ Then can I call your mother?" ”

"Of course, good boy......"

Emma smiled softly and helped Isabel straighten her messy hair: "Yulia, you can call it whatever you want." ”

The moment she heard this, a strong sense of disgust from the heart suddenly surged up in Isabel's heart.

It's as if the lover is holding him sweetly, but the other party blurts out another woman's name - the love filter that seems to be completely immersed in the next moment is instantly shattered.

Feeling a strong sense of dislocation, Isabel's pupils shrank again.

Immersed in "love" to the point of almost out of control, reason returns instantaneously.

This time Isabel didn't last long, and immediately fell into that sleepy state again.

It's like when I'm in class, I'm so sleepy that I can't open my eyes at all, and my head starts to nod. But still trying to open your eyes with reason and stay awake. And just nodded his head, and suddenly woke up coldly for a moment—not in a sleepy state of sleepiness, but after having fallen asleep, he woke up again.

Because of this, she was able to barely maintain a brief state of sobriety.

…… At least it has been verified that it works.

Isabel confirmed that this control is not permanent. So she relaxed a little and thought quickly.

But "Yulia" is a girl who rarely talks in terms of character setting. She can't keep pulling the other party to chat, that will only make the other party suspicious. Therefore, he must then enter a controlled state to recuperate......

Resisting the fear and resistance to the unknown in her heart, Isabel took the initiative to sink herself into a state of control.

When Isabel looked up from Emma's arms, she had an innocent smile of satisfaction on her face, and she had fallen silent again.

After all, Moriarty Manor is in the White Queen's district, and Emma cautiously considers the possibility that someone near Yulia's house will know her. So she kept pulling the curtains, not wanting anyone who knew "Yulia" to see her.

After the carriage passed through the Red Queen, the White Queen, and officially entered the Lloyd's district, Emma finally opened the curtains.

Because she wants "Yulia" to recognize the way, she must open the curtains. But apparently no one in the slum will know Yulia...... When they walk around here, they can take Yulia home.

Outside the window was a faint white mist. The whistle of the distant port was mixed with the cries of the vendors.

"Yulia" looked out of the window of the carriage, remembering the way she had come.

At this moment, Isabel suddenly saw a girl carrying a basket of wildflowers, flashing through the window.

The girl's body was dirty. Even in winter, she was still thinly dressed and thin, shivering in the cold wind.

Even her lips were purple, which worried Isabelle.

She couldn't help but open the window and look behind her.
