A cold green spread around Aurelian's body, covering her entire body, and the atmosphere of the scene was suddenly solemn.

The audience was like statues frozen in place, their eyes showing a look of astonishment.

Even August couldn't avoid accumulating an indescribable shock in his eyes.

Necromancer?

This idea came to the minds of many nobles.

Auguste frowned, and a wave of emotion ran in his heart.

"How is that possible?"

Aurelian has only been in the kingdom for a few days, and in just a few days, she has mastered necromantic magic?

Could it be ..... She had studied necromancy before?

Is this possible?

The Grand Duke of Barlow had never left the kingdom, and she had never had the opportunity to contact the Grand Duke before......

However, despite the endless doubts that people have about this, the facts in front of them cannot be refuted -

Aurelian, indeed, used necromancy.

However, no one cheered for it and was amazed at it.

In their emotional depression, the only thing that can be found is sadness.

The only way to get rid of August's control is to become an undead.

Watching the flesh burn out and turn into a skeleton-like Earl Cody, only a haze remained in their hearts.

And even more desperate is yet to come.

"Your Royal Highness, with all due respect."

August looked at Aurelian, and said in a slightly calm tone to Aurelian:

"As the princess of the empire, is it inappropriate for you to meddle in the affairs of our kingdom?"

That's right, that's August's confidence.

As people of the Empire, why should you meddle in the affairs of our Kingdom of Kanter?

Even if the kingdom carries out drastic reforms and carries out a wave of blood changes in the entire high-level circle of power.

You, as the princess of the empire, have no right to interfere.

The noble lords knew this very well.

Because Aurelian is not their savior.

She couldn't save the people present.

But Aurelian didn't want to give up because of this, she looked at August, and her voice was elegant and firm, as if it came from another dimension:

"But you want to kill everyone here."

"Murder?"

August chuckled, his fingertips tapping lightly on the arm crossed over his chest:

"They will not die, but they will transform and become my loyal subordinates, rightly obeying my rule."

Aurelian's eyes froze slightly, and August suddenly embraced her.

As if with emotion:

"The Bloodlines will accept them all."

"At that time, we who have completed the blood sacrifice will leave behind our fragile human bodies."

"We! It's going to be—"

Before he could finish speaking, August opened his arms and turned his back to the scarlet full moon, casting deep dark shadows in the air.

It was as if it was a mysterious rune, and there were bursts of mystery from him:

"Immortal."

Finally, August's blood-colored eyes were completely filled with madness.

The thousands of blood slaves were reflected in his eyes, and beneath the blood-colored moon, they were swinging their mechanical dances.

Aurelian looked at Auguste, who had gone completely insane, and completely lost the idea of persuasion.

Auguste in front of him has become a demon who has fallen into madness.

And the surrounding nobles were even more desperate.

They wanted to resist, but unfortunately, the people around them were all Auguste's cronies.

These elite soldiers will only defend August absolutely.

They didn't care if August would become a Blood Clan, or if he would become a Blood Slave after death.

Even if they ignore these dead soldiers who are not afraid of death.

The thousands of blood slaves who fell into madness were definitely not something they could handle.

What's even more desperate is the terrifying monster that is about to be summoned by this ritual.

At this time, Aurelian also let go, but the soul flame on her body began to flicker, and the faint green light was even more dazzling.

Dark green smoke spread out from her feet.

Try to save every soul that has turned into a blood slave.

But......

She suddenly felt an unusual weakness, like a gust of wind passing through her body, stealing her magic.

The surrounding magic and the connection between the realm of the dead completely dissipated in this instant.

The soul flame on Aurelian's body loomed and swayed, and in the next second, I was afraid that there was a risk of extinguishing.

At the same time, the spirit fire on the head of the dead Earl Cody became weaker and weaker.

The flames seemed to dissipate at any moment.

Aurelian tries to draw on the magic around her to keep the fire burning.

But the magic slowly dissipated like a lake, and she was like standing in a dead mire, with nowhere to go.

In the next second, the link between the magic and Aurelian was completely broken, and the soul flame flickering on her body completely dissipated.

Then, her link to the magic was completely broken, and the flame-engulfed dark green body gradually returned to its normal state.

There was no more burning flame in his blood-colored eyes.

And after Count Cody lost the support of the soul flame, his entire body was only a pile of bones, which were scattered on the ground.

Witnessing all of this happening, Aurelian was filled with doubts.

Why, her magic, was cut off?

When she saw that August was not surprised, but rather looked like he was expecting, she suddenly realized something.

"Do you know why there are so few mages in the kingdom?"

"Although it has something to do with the fact that few people learn magic, the most fundamental reason is because of this."

He clapped his hands, and the sound of chaotic footsteps suddenly enveloped the entire courtyard.

The grim soldiers surrounded the courtyard with expressionless faces.

And in their hands, each of them held a seemingly inconspicuous dark stone.

Aurelian's eyes widened at the sight of the stones.

"This is a specialty of our kingdom, the Forbidden Magic Stone."

August said indifferently:

"Although they are scarce in number and extremely difficult to mine, as long as there is this thing, there will be basically no mages in the kingdom."

The soldiers retracted the forbidden stone from their waists, and Auguste looked at Aurelian and said slowly:

"As I said, Your Highness the Princess, we don't want to have a dispute with the Empire."

"Therefore, your safety will definitely be guaranteed."

He turned around again, facing the crimson blood moon.

"Next, please watch—"

"This is a great feast."

As soon as the words fell, countless blood slaves knelt down and began to worship the blood moon as if they had received some order.

Their heads keep colliding with the earth.

Even though the blood was splashing and the bones were shattering, they had no intention of stopping.

Blood dripped onto the earth covered in ancient runes, and the lines seemed to be alive, absorbing them quickly and fluorescing brighter.

The Blood Slaves dried up like dead trees, as if they had been drained of life by an invisible hand.

And the blood moon hanging in the sky seemed to sense the enhancement of this magic, and its red light became even more brilliant.

Illuminates almost every corner of the courtyard.

The eyes of the many nobles were full of fear and despair, as if an even more terrifying beast was devouring them.

Hilda stood in the courtyard with Joanna in her arms, her two thin bodies looking particularly weak under the blood moon.

Joanna looked up expressionlessly, looked at Hilda's solemn face, and asked:

"Sister, are we all going to die here?"

Hilda lowered her head, gently stroked Joanna's forehead, and comforted softly:

"No, none of us will die."

With that, she looked back at Auguste.

It was the person she knew best.

At this moment, she only felt a deep strangeness.

In the dead silence, there was a huge commotion from the huge mansion in the distance.

And in the huge mansion in the distance, there was a sudden earth-shattering movement.

The roof of the house was broken through by the red light, and a huge figure flew up, heading straight for the blood moon.

Everyone looked up, their eyes wide in shock.

It was a woman with bat wings.

But her beast-like fangs and teeth, and her skin that was exceptionally pale under the light of the blood moon, were particularly penetrating.

She slowly floated down from the sky, her massive bat's wings almost obscuring half of the scarlet moon.

At this moment, Auguste's eyes were hot, as if he saw what his heart wanted:

"It's you, my queen."

"Mine, fate ......"

Suddenly, his voice stopped abruptly.

The air seemed to freeze for a moment, like the sound of footsteps knocking on the stairs, causing a silence.

At this moment, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the source of the voice.

Even Aurelian's eyes widened, and her eyes seemed to light up with hope.

It was a man in a black trench coat.

He put his hands in his pockets, and everyone consciously made way for him.

Until he stepped into the crowd and came to Auguste.

Victor's gaze first glanced at the blood-colored figure floating in the sky, and then took in the creepy scarlet scene on the ground.

Finally, he set his sights on Auguste.

August also looked at Victor, his eyes slightly raised, and he showed a very confident smile:

"Councillor Clavenner......"

"Your Majesty August."

Victor's voice sounded faintly, interrupting Auguste's words.

"You're trying to say that we, the Empire, shouldn't meddle in the affairs of your kingdom, right?"

This is exactly what August said to Aurelian just now.

And now, Victor repeats the phrase again.

Although he didn't know what Victor meant, August nodded.

"That's right, Mr. Councillor."

"Not even you have the right to interfere in our kingdom."

Victor stood in front of the court, closed his eyes slightly, and said thoughtfully:

"I see."

Suddenly, a bluebird with smart feathers flew down from the sky slowly.

It entered everyone's sight and carried a steady stream of magic.

August's pupils contracted slightly, and he was extremely surprised.

“…… Magic? It shouldn't. ”

The Forbidden Demon Stone has banned all the magic power present, which is also August's confidence when facing Victor.

But now, why is there a bird made of magic?

"This is a natural finch, a special magic created by Rachel Teal of our Mage Council."

After succinctly answering August's question, Victor stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.

Above the sky, the cyan blue bird suddenly rose an illusory screen.

"Hey? Hmm, can you hear me over there? ”

In the picture, a well-dressed black-haired woman occupies the center of the entire screen.

At this moment, she was standing in the middle of the palace, surrounded by countless imperial ministers.

The unfolding of this moment made everyone present feel extremely puzzled.

What the hell happened?

"Looks like it's almost."

The woman adjusted the angle of view of the screen slightly, and then walked away from the camera.

After she left, the figure sitting on the throne appeared in the camera.

It looked like a richly dressed old man, with white temples and a kind smile.

The nobles present froze as if they had been struck by lightning the moment they saw the kind old man.

Because, the old man in the camera, no one in the scene did not know his identity.

'The Strongest Emperor of the Empire - Oberly Saul VIII. ’

Even Aurelian almost blurted out a shout:

"Father!?"

The kind old man seemed to hear Aurelian's voice, and sat down in his seat, smiling.

Even August was stunned, he didn't understand at all what Victor was going to do.

But suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the picture, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Between the palaces, there was a warrior tied up with a variety of flowers.

And the other nobles also noticed this.

The warrior was wearing kingdom-style armor.

However, in this shot, it seems that the woman at the beginning is the protagonist.

She reappeared on the side of the screen and smiled at everyone present and introduced:

"This person's name is Chur, and after being identified, it has been determined that he is a warrior from your Kante Kingdom."

"He, before, he infiltrated our family's territory and attempted to assassinate me, but now he has been arrested and has been tortured to extract confessions."

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but look at each other.

In this kind of thing, the empire hardly lies, and there is no need to lie about this matter at all.

As long as you have the heart to check, the soldier on the screen, his identity will definitely be able to be found.

And in that screen, even the emperor of the empire has already appeared.

Obviously, with the endorsement of the emperor, this matter cannot be faked.

But what made them even more curious was the woman who claimed to have been assassinated by them.

Who the hell is she?

"Sorry, I almost forgot to introduce myself."

Suddenly, a woman's voice rang out.

On her pretty face, a delicate smile appeared.

But everyone present was silent:

"I'm Leah Klevenna, Victor Klevenna's ......"

"Family."

Beep –

The picture shrinks instantly, and the sound stops abruptly.

Everything around seemed to be frozen by the cold words, and the cold chill climbed up the back of every noble lord.

In the same way, even August turned his head with difficulty and looked at the expressionless man.

Only Victor's voice could be heard, like the death knell of death, slowly ringing:

"Now."

"It's time for us to settle old scores."
