The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1807: Bells!

Views:

The carriage with the long sword badge of Lord Xika departed from the Lower Seventh Ring Road in the evening.

The scorching sun dyed the long sword badge with a glow.

After removing the blood-stained longsword emblem representing the 'God of War', the single longsword seemed to be sheathed, reserved but not cowardly, and would not shrink back in the face of difficulties, and relied on himself.

Irene Sika leaned against the carriage, recalling the family story her father told.

I can't remember many stories.

All she remembers is 'self-improvement' and 'modestness' that her father always emphasized.

However, after his elder brother, a devout follower of the 'God of War', became the patriarch of the Sika family, everything seemed to change slightly.

And now, everything is back on track again.

The Sika family has become the lord of the Sika Territory again.

Although she is not a qualified lord, she will try her best to do her best.

Recalling the appearance of those two little girls surrounded her all day, the baroness thought that she should do better, at least to the point where they would not be disappointed if they went to Xikaling.

An older sister who is like an adult, a pure and lovely younger sister.

Thinking of the disappointment that the two sisters might have, the baroness felt that she could not let such a thing happen.

The two lovely little girls are almost the same as Carl when he was a child. Unfortunately, Carl stopped letting him wear little skirts when he was seven or eight years old. It was such a cute little skirt, why couldn't he wear it.

Now with Irene and Allie, they're going to love those little dresses.

It seems that when I return to Xikaling, I will order skirts for them.

No!

The best tailors must be in Altantino!

I can have someone check it out tomorrow.

The baroness seemed to have thought of something beautiful, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

As for the anxiety when you came

there is none left!

She believed Simon's reassurance.

Since Simon said to leave it to him, she chose to believe him.

leftover

Naturally, I have to think about the color and pattern of the skirt, hoping to meet a reliable tailor.

While the baroness was thinking, the carriage drove smoothly into the front of Eitandine's palace.

Roget, who was driving the carriage, was sitting on the driver's seat because of his tall stature, with half of his back exposed, and the natural seat was also very cramped.

He would rather walk if he could.

However, he will not ignore the words of the messenger.

The Baroness must be protected.

Therefore, he sat in the most prominent position.

His companions had six horsemen guarding the sides and the back of the carriage. Of course, this was on the bright side, and there were six more people following quietly in the dark.

Eitandine is not Sika, they have to be careful.

Especially when they saw the Temple of War God that covered the Altantin Palace, a trace of resistance and disgust flashed in the eyes of the young people.

Hypocrisy, cruel guy!

The young people commented like this.

Rogert, who was protecting the baroness on the surface, did not hide the slightest, glanced at the Temple of War, and then—

Heh, tui.

A mouthful of thick phlegm was spit on the ground.

Then, he was submerged under the wheels of the team.

The 'War God Temple' in the distance has not been found in the slightest.

Originally, at this time, there should be a priest with swords and two deacons with swords and no less than twenty deacons guarding here, but unfortunately, the "mutation" last night caused the entire Temple of War to be in chaos set.

Roget could even smell a bloody smell when he passed the War God Temple.

"I wish you a good death!"

As a faithful believer of the 'Mist', the young man has no scruples about cursing the guy who has caused damage to Sika City several times but is hiding in the dark.

Just like this group of guys used to ignore those young girls.

Hanging and beheading are cheap in the eyes of young people, these bastards.

They should go to the stake, the flames are the destination of these bastards.

However, the young man quickly adjusted his mood.

Because, he knows that now is not the time.

He, and everyone, still need to wait patiently.

But, definitely not too long.

The thought in his heart strengthened Roget's belief even more.

His attention began to look towards Aitandine's palace.

The next moment, this young man who was as majestic as a bear frowned.

The thick and strong appearance did not affect the perception and intuition of young people.

At this moment, looking at the palace in front of him, he keenly noticed something was wrong.

Those guards looked a little too weird.

There is no aura that an elite should have.

Instead, with... a trance!

It seems to have received a huge impact.

what happened

With doubts in his heart, the young man stopped the carriage.

Those guards who were in a trance finally came back to their senses, and they received the baroness according to the due etiquette.

"The resident of the northern part of the kingdom, the ruler of Sika City, is naturally nostalgic for Baron Irene Sika."

When the baroness stepped on the carpet, such shouts sounded from the mouths of two rows of guards, and one after another, they spread into the depths of the palace.

The first two sentences are honorific titles, representing the long-standing glory of the Sika family, while the latter sentence explains the baroness's solitary life attitude.

Of course, it's definitely not because the baroness's husband has increased his fights with bears.

The baroness was in front, and Rogett, who was a bodyguard, followed behind.

Even the obtuse Baroness noticed something was wrong at this moment.

Did something happen in the palace

The baroness guessed.

And when the baroness walked into the palace, she saw Qin Ran at first sight.

Qin Ran sitting in the hall was too conspicuous.

Not only because he didn't wear the same dress as his invitee, but just in black.

It was also because everyone around was looking at Qin Ran.

There was shock, doubt, awe in that gaze, and... a little bit of flattery!

That's right, just to please!

The baroness thought she was right.

She had seen that look too many times.

When ordinary people looked at her father, brother, and her, they would have such eyes.

But this is the palace of Eitantinople!

The people around you are not ordinary people!

At a glance, there were more than a dozen barons, quite a few viscounts, and several earls and marquises, but without exception, these people all looked at the snake witcher with that kind of gaze.

That wasn't what surprised the Baroness the most, though.

The one who was really surprised was the Aitantine VI.

After nodding to her with a smile at first, he looked at the Snake Demon Hunter with a loving gaze, which made the baroness uncomfortable.

After all, she had already thought of the difficulties she was going to face on the way here.

Among them, Eitandine VI is the top priority.

but now

The other party seems to no longer respect himself at all.

This feeling of punching the air after preparing for a long time made the baroness very aggrieved, but it was followed by a strong curiosity.

As a close minister, Monte respectfully took the baroness to one side, and the baroness pricked up her ears to listen to the whispered discussions of the surrounding people.

As she listened, the baroness's mouth fell open.

The etiquette cultivated since childhood made the baroness immediately raise her hand to cover her mouth, but the shock in her eyes couldn't be hidden no matter what.

The Snake Demon Hunter turned out to be Eitandine's heir? !

The previous Sphynson was just a counterfeit product launched? !

One message after another shocked the Baroness's mind to a blank.

She never thought that such a situation would happen.

Then, she immediately thought of a deeper level.

Since Aitantine VI handed over his child to the upbringing of the demon hunter, and now he has 'recalled' his child back, does that mean... there is no need to worry about certain things.

For example: God of War.

Example: Ms. Calamity.

Is everything ready

Such speculation not only appeared in the baroness's heart, but also the surrounding nobles thought of it.

Most of the aristocrats were full of joy, even those conservatives who opposed the New Deal were no exception. They only opposed the King's New Deal, but they were not rebellious and would not oppose the existence of the royal family.

At this moment, there is a better heir in the royal family, which is naturally a good thing.

But the remaining small part is different.

Although his face was calm, his eyes were filled with sadness and sternness.

Not all nobles will support the king.

Those pawns were originally inserted, or to be precise, the product of the compromise of the Aitantine royal family, who knew where the viscount's wealth came from.

For this reason, they naturally did not hesitate to do something.

not now.

But, not necessarily later.

The upper level evil spirit saw everything in its eyes.

It silently recorded the faces of these people, and checked the list of the banquet just seen.

Nothing in particular.

It's just a precautionary measure.

After all, it's king now.

It is responsible for its own kingdom.

And of course...

The subconscious upper evil spirit looked at his boss.

The indifferent and sharp eyes flickered in the eyes of his boss, and the higher evil spirit immediately responded as if begging for mercy.

And this appearance of Aitantine VI was seen by everyone.

More and more people believed that this was the guilt of Aitantine VI.

Then, people recognized it even more.

Because, Aitantine VI stood up from the throne, walked towards the Snake Demon Hunter, and pulled him to the position next to the throne with the latter's expression of indifference.

Everyone knows what this position represents.

What they knew better was that Aitantine VI would definitely directly reveal his identity as a Snake Demon Hunter.

Sure enough, at the next moment, Aitantine VI spoke directly.

"Everyone, today is a happy day..."

Following the words of Aitantine VI, the dinner officially began.

Compared with the excitement originally estimated, this time it was even more eager.

After the opening remarks, the people present surrounded the Snake Demon Hunter like flowers and butterflies, introducing themselves one by one, and flattering them without losing their grace.

The scene was very lively.

But it has nothing to do with the 'undead' Holleika.

At least, not on the surface.

No one will link the members of the 'Secret Order of Quiet Night' with the heirs of the Aitandine royal family.

At this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone in Quiet Night Town, Holleika was slowly walking towards the center of the town.

Midnight is coming.

Time to ring the bell...here it is!
