Celia led a group of guards through the busy streets of the royal capital.

The guards were dressed in shining silver armor and with sharp swords hanging from their waists, and their horses marched in a uniform column.

Her face was full of anxiety, and her brow was furrowed.

He kept driving the horses under his seat and hurried in the direction of the Delin Mansion.

Although Her Majesty has made it clear that there is no need to support Knight Captain Gwyn, the uproar at the Delin Mansion has attracted great attention.

Especially its geographical proximity to the city.

This means that the surrounding streets must be crowded with passers-by at this moment.

Celia knew in her heart that her first priority was to evacuate the crowd.

Avoid innocent people being affected and causing irreversible losses.

Soon, a mixture of wind and snow and fire appeared in front of her eyes.

When Delin's mansion gradually came into view, she saw that the streets a few kilometers away were already crowded with onlookers.

In this dark crowd, there are also some reporters wielding magic guide stones shuttling through the crowd.

Desperately trying to get close to the battlefield to capture more footage.

It seems that whenever a big event happens in Wangdu, these reporters flock to it like sharks that smell blood.

In addition, not only the ordinary residents, but also some knights also stood outside the crowd and maintained order.

They guided the residents out in batches, and despite the large number of residents, the crowd gradually withdrew in an orderly manner thanks to the efforts of the knights.

However, due to the large number of people, it was difficult for the Knights to evacuate quickly and completely.

Outside the Knights, a group of members of the Royal Mage Corps in different costumes also stood nearby.

There's even a magician holding a magic crystal ball.

They gathered near the Delin Mansion and used the orb in their hands and their own magic power to try to build a magical barrier around the mansion.

As they chanted, the magical light surging in the night sky intertwined with the intricate circle totems.

The result is a transparent barrier that glows pale blue, completely isolating the surroundings of the Delin House.

Seeing all this, Celia finally relaxed a little.

Just as Celia breathed a sigh of relief, a calm and deep voice suddenly sounded beside her:

"Huh? Royal Guards? Why are you here? ”

When she heard the voice, her body stiffened involuntarily, and her eyes followed the source of the sound.

In front of her, a blonde man came into her sight.

Ten years of years do not seem to have left a trace on him, and he still maintains that youthful appearance.

When Celia saw this familiar figure, she hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Lord Duke!"

Duke Rivi glanced at the escort behind Celia.

Obviously, there are not many of them, only a dozen of them.

As if he understood something, he looked at Celia with deep eyes, and said with a bit of warning:

"Her Majesty didn't order you to come to your aid, did you?"

When Celia heard this, she lowered her head lightly and replied in a low voice:

"I'm sorry, Lord Duke, I thought ......"

"Do you think that because Grand Knight Gwen is here, we can rest easy and don't need support?"

Both the Royal Mage and the Magus belong to Levi.

If he showed up in person, it would mean that all available forces had been mobilized for this operation.

Levi looked up slightly, his gaze through the barrier, and stared at the Delin Mansion swept by orange fire and snow.

Two flashes of red and pale light were reflected in the bottom of his eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion:

"Since the departure of Oberly and Victor, Gwen has undoubtedly become the strongest man in the Empire."

"We've all seen her destructive power, and even a seemingly simple battle has to think about the impact it can have on the population."

"Her Majesty has more than you think."

Hearing this, Celia's head lowered even deeper.

At this moment, the wind and snow outside seemed to be more violent.

The chill penetrated through the barrier, as if it were the first to hit the face.

Celia watched the rolling wind and snow, and her heart trembled involuntarily.

The surrounding mages and magicians felt a surge of power within the barrier and no longer held back.

Unleash all the magic power in your body and in the orb to strengthen the transparent barrier that glows with a pale blue glow.

And at this time, the voice of the Duke of Levi sounded again:

"Gwen is powerful like anyone else."

"Oberly is a warrior and represents the pinnacle of power."

"Victor is a mage, and his magical destructive power is unmatched to this day."

"But, Gwen is a knight."

His gaze seemed to penetrate the barrier, projecting far away on the figure in snow-white armor.

Watched as Gwen slowly raised the silver greatsword in her hand to face the red flame armor.

With a violent wind and snow, it swung down sharply.

At the same time, the calm voice of the Duke of Rivi sounded in this solemn atmosphere:

"She represents the ultimate skill of mortals who are proficient in any weapon."

In the next moment, a huge pale giant blade tore through the silent space.

"On behalf of us mortals."

"You can also break your mind."

【Wind and Snow: Rushing to the Moon】

The Delin Mansion was completely covered in wind and snow.

The dazzling white light seemed to pierce the sky, enveloping everything in a dazzling light.

The space was torn apart by countless obvious cracks, spreading out towards the Western Circumference.

The icy chill seemed to turn into a surging tide of hoarfrost, tearing the skin of the earth as the silver-white blade fell.

A loud bang briefly echoed in the air, and the surrounding air, which had been frozen by low temperatures, quickly fell into a long silence.

The terrifying force slashed the earth and split the stars of the night.

At that moment, the wind and snow had stopped, and there were no more stars in the dark night.

Only a deep darkness remains, like a canvas decorated with starlight.

Phew——!

The wind and snow are melodious, and the chill is severe.

The violent cold swept across the royal capital, and even the streets outside the barrier were not immune to the cold wind.

The buildings and streets were covered in a thin layer of crystalline frost and snow, and even the orb in the magician's hand revealed ice crystals.

Celia stretched out her hand to shield herself, trying to fend off the biting wind.

But the dry cold wind still made her unable to open her eyes.

Finally, when the cold wind violence gradually subsided, everyone at the scene was stunned.

They were dumbfounded and looked ahead in shock.

On the battlefield, only a snow mastiff knight stood proudly.

With one hand, he held the greatsword on the ground, and looked through the helmet as if looking ahead with loneliness.

The knights stood in shock, their eyes fixed on the ruins of the Delin Mansion.

Countless reporters braved the cold wind, and the magic guide stone in their hands was busy shooting, afraid of missing every detail of this scene.

But, without exception, they could not even find a fragment of broken armor on the ground.

Under that terrifying blow, it seemed that everything was completely wiped out.

Xiang Zilan stood in place, her eyes wide.

Her hair was covered with a thin layer of ice, but her cat-like eyes glowed with a startling green light.

Staring ahead in shock.

At the moment when she was in a daze, Cocott, who was sitting on the clouds next to her, reached out and yawned lazily.

As if indifferent to the chaos around him, he whispered:

"Alright, it's almost time for me to go back."

Because as that devastating attack ended, Victor's voice came to her ears clearly

That sentence was a reminder to her.

When you get back, go and wait for him at the Tree of Yard.

At the same time, looking at the Duke of Levi, who ended here, his voice sounded calmly and distantly:

"Wrap up, we can go back."

"Leave some people to clean up the scene and count casualties and property damage."

He had just turned around to leave, but he glanced back at Celia, who was still standing in shock, and reminded faintly:

"As a royal guard, leaving the post without an order is an unauthorized departure from duty, and after returning home, he will plead guilty."

Hearing this, Celia finally recovered from her shock and hurriedly asked:

"Lord Duke!"

"So, that man...... Was it killed by Grand Knight Gwen? ”

Duke Levi didn't reply, but responded casually:

……

"He escaped."

Aurelian stared at the picture in the mirror with a blank face, and said calmly:

"A true teacher will never lose to anyone, not even the current Teacher Gwen."

She stood up casually, folded her hands in front of her lower abdomen, and turned to walk towards the door.

When she was about to leave, she left a faint sentence:

"Notify everyone, issue a bounty, and report it as soon as you find a man in red armor."

The door to the room opened automatically, closing again as Aurelian left.

Only the mirror was left in the room, but the image in the mirror had not disappeared.

That man, did he really lose?

Suddenly, the picture in the mirror gradually zoomed in.

Slowly focused on Gwen's one-handed greatsword.

In the middle of the giant sword, an astonishing crack broke out.

Zizi-hmm-

The picture in the mirror is turned off again.

……

The royal capital was quickly plunged into turmoil due to a chaotic event.

Within a few hours, the entire royal capital was covered in this chaos.

Many residents have heard that Knight Gwen brought the outcast, who suddenly appeared, back to the Delin Mansion for interrogation yesterday.

Unexpectedly, an accident occurred halfway, and the two started a tense duel.

The scale of the battle was such that it almost razed the mansion to the ground.

For now, the Order of Mages and the Order of Knights are still busy in that neighborhood, while calming and evading the crowd of onlookers.

However, this turmoil has shrouded every corner of the royal capital in unease.

Because the notice of the Royal Palace clearly informed all the inhabitants.

The man in the red armor did not die, but quietly fled in the battle.

All citizens of the Empire are urged to avoid and report to the Order immediately if they sight the Red Armor.

Because of the speed with which the message was delivered, the news also quickly reached Breston.

After all, Bladstone was so close to the king that no one knew when the outcast would set foot here.

At this time, Leon was standing in front of the door, holding a photograph captured by the Magic Guide Stone.

She carefully identified the armor in the photo, a little tangled.

Because of the red armor, Jane's head was exactly the same as the one Miss Leah had lost ten years ago.

However, does such a coincidence really exist?

Leon wondered whether she should tell Miss Leah about it.

What if this news ignites Miss Leah's hopes again, and it turns out to be another illusion meeting?

If Miss Leia was disappointed again, she couldn't imagine what Miss Leia would do.

Leon stood silently in the doorway, her gaze moving across the room.

It fell on the figure of Liya who was buried in her desk, concentrating on her work.

Leah's face was as usual, and there was no emotional fluctuation.

This made Leon feel a pang of distress.

Miss Leah was tired enough, and she didn't want to disappoint Miss Leah again.

Let's wait for her to confirm the authenticity of this news first.

But just when Leon was about to leave and hide the photo in his hand secretly.

In the room, a calm and cold voice suddenly sounded:

"Leon."

"Give me what you have in your hand."
