Even though she was hiding in the safe area in the shade, Claire clearly saw the sun flashing across the sky.

That was actually a psychic explosion - although the power should have been suppressed by Karin and Zhu Ying, even so, the earth-shaking terrifying power was enough to scare humans.

"Sister Karin... nothing will happen, right!"

"Please calm down, Your Highness. They should be fine."

Because she had established a special connection with the two of them, Xia Ye had always seemed quite calm.

Karin and Zhu Ying had no problems and were returning here - even if Aarons was far away, she could sense each other's life through the contract.

So she was not worried about any problems with Aarons.

"Well, but now that the psychic explosion has been triggered, the Star Child should have awakened, right?"

The infinite energy body that the Star Seeking Brigade instigated Duke Booker to find may have awakened because of this change.

If that was the case, then the group of outsiders would not need to attack the imperial capital anymore... But Claire did not feel at ease.

At this moment, a stream of red light suddenly broke through the sky, rushing towards them like a meteorite.

——The one that descended from the sky was a giant wolf with a black body, white armor and red mane, carrying a petite maid.

"Report. Mission accomplished, the target has self-destructed at high altitude."

"Oh, do you still have to act good in front of others?"

"...Shut up."

When the majestic giant wolf with red light landed lightly near Claire and her group and uttered a familiar voice at the same time, everyone's nervousness finally eased.

That was Karin and Zhu Ying - but this was the first time everyone had seen Karin in this posture.

"Sorry, sorry, this form is so comfortable... Didn't it scare you?"

After dispelling all the spiritual power on his body, the giant wolf body that was simulated returned to Karin's original appearance.

However, everyone also discovered that although Karin's appearance was no different from before, her aura had obviously become more fierce and solid.

"Miss Karin, are you... advancing again?"

"Well, it's just God's blessing."

After realizing that his original colleague had become stronger, Xia Ye rubbed his eyebrows in annoyance.

In order to protect Aarons, the fighting power of the people around him should be as strong as possible - but too high a strength will also lead to another unnecessary problem.

...After all, Aarons doesn't have such a strong physical fitness, so the pressure at night will also increase.

"Please allow me to ask one more question. Can you fully control your power?"

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems... in every sense."

And this thoughtful colleague immediately understood Xia Ye's concerns and threw a sly eye at her.

Of course, this kind of suggestive topic may only be understood by the innocent mercenary leader.

"Then your highness, the biggest crisis at present is considered to be resolved, so what is your next plan?"

Keliya brought people here specifically, of course, not just to stop the artificial monsters from invading the imperial capital.

——The hidden enemy is still there, and the Star Seeking Brigade that intends to blow up the imperial capital is still there.

"Let's go to the imperial capital... I must go to see my father."

My own life experience, the enemy's ideas... and the future direction of the empire.

Although Keliya doesn't need to bear all this, she still hopes to get an answer.

——Get an answer that can make her stand up and stay with Aarons.

"Understood! Since the big boss has said so, let's get ready to go... Everyone, get ready!"

"Also, Captain Kulan, are your connections related to the Imperial Guards?"

"Well, that's true... I'm actually very familiar with the deputy captain of the Imperial Guards, and he told me some of the things that happened in the Imperial Capital."

Kulan didn't say these things before because the situation was tense, but now the crisis has been resolved, and there is no need for him to continue to hide it.

"Your Highness, you must be mentally prepared first-they told me that His Majesty the Emperor had an acute illness not long ago, and now he is probably dying."

"What-what did you say!?"

For Keliya, such bad news is no less than a bolt from the blue.

But before her emotions began to get out of control, Xia Ye beside her took the initiative to reach out and press her shoulders.

"Your Highness, please stay calm. Captain Kulan just meant that although His Majesty the Emperor is seriously ill now, but there is still some time. "

"Huh... Sorry. Please prepare to leave as soon as possible, we must get to the Imperial Capital as quickly as possible."

Now that the Imperial Capital may be detonated at any time, such a decision is actually very dangerous.

But in order to obtain the truth and gain some advantages for the subsequent battles, Keliya must do this.

"If you are ready, we will--"

However, just when Keliya had just barely adjusted her mood and was about to go to the Imperial Capital with others, an indescribable strange sense of oppression suddenly enveloped her.

It was as if her normal breathing was cut off by someone, and it was as if her blood vessels were blocked by something... In the surprised eyes of others, Keliya, with a painful expression, suddenly squatted down with her hands on her chest.

"Your Highness! What's wrong with you! ? "

"My... body seems..."

Xia Ye, who found something wrong, immediately came to Keliya's side, released a black silk thread from her fingers, and probed into the body of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

And Karin's nose twitched slightly, as if she smelled something, revealing a somewhat confused expression.

"Little Spider, come here... this and that..."

While Xia Ye was examining Keliya, Karin quietly came to the side of the maid with cherry hair and whispered in her ear.

"...Are you sure? I'll go up and scan it."

"Don't say anything when you come back, just tell me the results."

Spider Sakura immediately flew into the sky after nodding, and Karin also walked to Xia Ye's side at this time to observe Keliya's reaction.

Her wolf eyes flashing with golden light seemed to have seen through something.

"Miss Xia Ye, what's wrong with Her Royal Highness's body? "

"It's strange, there's nothing wrong with your Highness's body...but the circulation of her spiritual power has been interrupted in many places."

After absorbing too much spiritual power and causing her magic power and fighting spirit to disappear, spiritual power became the only power circulating in Keliya's body.

Although this power eroded her body, it had always been running quite stably - but now, for some reason, this power has also had problems.

"Leave the spiritual power to me, I should be able to help."
