A blonde young man in a dark velvet robe sat on the edge of the flower bed in the back garden

of the Longxin Kingdom

, outside the royal dormitory, and looked at the dragon fountain in front of him with a slight distraction.

The clothes on the young man's body did not look luxurious, but if you looked closely, you would find that both the fabric and the gold lines engraved on it were carefully selected and designed.

Another group of knights, dressed in white uniforms, stood in groups on either side of the garden.

There was a blue flame on their shoulders, symbolizing the number of the knights to which they belonged,

the Knights of the

Protectors, Kongyan.

Like the Knights of the Holy Wood led by Duke Vins, the Knights of the Sky Flame are also directly under the control of the royal family.

The only difference is that the Knights of the Holy Wood are responsible for the security of the entire royal capital, and are sometimes sent out to assist the country's military on missions.

But the Knights of the Void Flame are only responsible for the safety of the royal family.

In other words, they don't care about the lives of the people, nor do they care about the security of the country.

All they need to protect is the lives of the royal family.

Such an organization should not have participated in the battle for succession between the crown princes.

But this time, His Majesty gave them clear instructions.

That is to hope that they will ensure the personal safety of the eldest prince, who is now sitting on the edge of the flower bed.

The first heir of the Loongson Kingdom - Cortawell Colverkins.

For such a decision, the current head of the Empty Flame Knights didn't think much about it, so he honestly ordered.

After all, His Royal Highness the Second Prince disappeared, and the Third Princess's daughter was also killed on the spot because of the previous monster attack.

Now in the younger generation of the entire royal family, only His Royal Highness the eldest prince is left with direct bloodline.

"Your Highness. The

indifferent female voice came along with the sound of the silver armor hitting the ground, and Cortaville came back to his senses, and then slowly turned his head away.

Glaring at him was a tall woman with a silver sword pinned to her waist.

The aura of magic on the woman's body is extremely strong, even compared to the Duke of Vins, who is known as the pillar of the country.

But what is a little surprising is that she looks very young, but she already has cold eyes that can only be found in battle.

The cold white skin, wrapped in fine soft armor, and the wavy golden hair, loosened the moment she took off her helmet until it fell to her waist.

A covered Mithril light armor wrapped the woman's beautiful figure vividly.

"Mistress Kayla.

Cortavel nodded faintly, but in his identity, he still had to be called an adult, and the only one who held the rank of duke was the existence.

The one in front of him is one of the four dukes of the Loongson Kingdom.

The head of the Knights of the Sky Flame - Kayla Aquilai "Blue Sword".

"Your Majesty's order has been given, and he wants you not to leave the dormitory for the time being, and we will also focus our guards on your safety.

Kayla walked over to Cortaville and patted the dead leaves that had fallen on his shoulder.

The behavior of the two makes them look less like an up-and-down relationship at this moment, more like old friends who have known each other for a long time.

"Thank you—"

Cortavel smiled nondeniably, then just shook his head, as if he didn't have much to say.

“...... The future of the kingdom will eventually fall to you, so take heart.

Kayla sighed silently, then stood up and saluted, then turned and walked out of the garden.

Since the second prince disappeared for no reason, His Royal Highness the eldest prince no longer involved in court affairs, but locked himself in this garden all day and never left here.

As she reached the outskirts of the garden, Kayla glanced back at the eldest prince and walked out silently.

After that, she casually summoned the waiter who had been guarding outside, and handed him a note for routine reporting.

Through the corner of the note, the name "Iloti Colverkins" could be faintly seen.

"Tell Her Royal Highness that the eldest prince is no longer a threat, and let her start arranging the next matters.

Kayla waved her hand, and the waiter in front of her nodded faintly, and then quietly turned to leave.

Just if you look closely, you can see that the waiter's nose and ear piercings are full of viscous black liquid.

Even those eyes were swallowed by the black liquid, and there was no trace of brilliance.

"Iloti..."

Damn the monster—"

After Kayla left the garden, Cortavel's pupils, which had no emotional fluctuations, instantly flashed with an incomparably cold color.

It's just that the emotion is gone in a flash, so no one notices that he is strange now.

"Hee-hee-hee... Your Royal Highness, it doesn't taste good to be a caged bird. A

strange crow silently landed among the flowers behind Cortaville.

It's weird because both of its eyes are pierced by spikes.

The injury even penetrated its brain, but even then, it was able to stand firmly behind Cortavel.

The long beak of the bird did not open, and the previous words were not recounted from its mouth, but directly into Cortavel's mind through a strange magic array.

“...... When the hell are you going to help?" said

Kotavel, clenching his fists tightly, trying to keep his voice to a minimum.

"Don't worry, who do you think you're going to deal with, it's a witch, an existence standing above the pinnacle of this world. The

crow's voice was cold and hoarse, and it sounded terrible.

“...... I will never break my promise to you, as long as you can help me kill that damn monster.

Cortavel took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions as much as he could.

"Hee-hee-hee... That's nature, and we're interested in this witch as well.

"In this day and age, all witches have hidden their existence, but this Lord Iloti is particularly obsessed with plundering the royal family of Loongcore, which also surprises us.

"Don't worry, we naturally have our means, you just need to deliver on your promises when the time comes." With that

, the crow's body turned into a gloomy puff of black smoke and quietly dispersed in the flower bed.

Cotaville sat where he was, until he finally collapsed on the bench.

He had to make such a deal, or the whole country would fall into the hands of the witch.

This throne should have belonged to him.

In order to achieve this goal, even if it is a deal with the devil, he will not hesitate to do so.

............

The Loongson Kingdom.Viscount Territory (belonging to Eli Klevin)

This feeling of being suppressed in the stomach is really a long time coming...

Eli opened his eyes numbly, and he didn't even have to turn his head to know who was lying next to him.

"Young master, you can't follow Eliti, she is hungry for you..."

"W-"

Eli sprang up almost reflexively as the blade slowly unsheathed from the door.

And Chizuru didn't know when, she was already standing quietly outside the door.

The Tianmu Ghost Boy Pill on his waist was also pulled out in half.

"Calm down, Chizuru, your house is gone!"
