The moment she saw the silver-haired priest, Kate was stunned.
Although in theory, Father Abel Netrod is her partner, the two have known each other for less than a month. In her impression, this priest with silver hair and blue eyes is usually a good person.
He is incomprehensible. I don't know whether he looks weak or incompetent. No matter what happens, he acts like a good guy. He never gets angry, but at the same time, he also gives people a very unreliable feeling.
.
However, this Father Abel, standing in front of Kate at this moment, made her feel a little strange.
Should it be helplessness? Or sadness? It was an expression of sincere sadness in advance for his next actions. It appeared on the face of this gentle priest at an untimely moment, but it was only because of his impeccable and unquestionable expression.
You will hurt the self-confidence of others and send chills down your spine.
"You guy..." Frightened by the expression on the priest's face, the maid sergeant took a step back and subconsciously wanted to pull the trigger.
However, at this moment, the silver-haired priest's eyes suddenly lit up——
"Oh! Isn't this Sister Kate?!"
Abel's expression changed 180 degrees, which caught the maids off guard. He was full of energy, smiling like a sun, raising his hands high to greet Kate behind the crowd:
"Hey! Hey! Miss Kate! Did you see it? It's me! Abel! I thought I couldn't run into you, but I didn't expect to meet you here!"
Miss Master Chief and the other maids were stunned, probably because they had never seen someone so unnerved... Subconsciously, the muskets in their hands lowered their heads - the impression of the sad priest just now... couldn't be...
Illusion?
However, even with this small oversight, this stupid silver-haired man had already lowered his head to avoid the gunshot, rushed into the crowd in a few steps, and stood in front of Kate. He grabbed Kate's hand and said with excitement: "This
It is simply a fateful encounter! Miss Kate! This is the guidance of the gods! Let me come to you!"
"So fast! You guy!" Shocked by the skill displayed in that moment, the maid guards instantly stood between Sheryl and Kate, raised their muskets again, aimed at Kate and Abel, and surrounded the two.
central.
"You two! Put your hands up! Otherwise I will give the order to fire!" The maid sergeant did not hesitate any longer. Although Abel's actions were inexplicable and I didn't know what he wanted to do, it had only been a few minutes since he appeared.
It is true that the safety of my wife and young lady has been threatened several times, and we must eradicate it as soon as possible no matter what.
Hearing the order coming from behind, Abel suddenly scratched his head helplessly. He turned around with a smile and glanced at the maid sergeant: "Um...maid lady, can you let me talk to Kate? As long as
It’ll be fine in a moment.”
In the eyes of the silver-haired priest, an obscure red light flashed away, and the Master Chief was stunned for a moment: "...if only for a moment..."
After hearing Miss Chief's promise, Kate couldn't help but immediately asked the doubts in her heart: "Father! Why are you here?!"
"Why are you here..." Abel looked at Kate with a gentle smile, "Don't you already know?"
"So..." Kate was silent. As a prisoner, she had limited access to information before. But in this way, she could finally confirm that those who are attacking the Duke's Palace are indeed members of the Church's Holy Office.
people.
"But..." Looking at Kate's somewhat disappointed look, Abel comforted her gently, "The attack on the Duke's Palace was an order from Father Andrewson. From my own perspective, I did it to save you and the others.
Came from Lamberts."
"...I'm sorry...Father..." Kate could not tell Abel how shaken she was, but even so, she was still moved by Abel's words, "Because the two of us acted without permission and caused you trouble.
…”
"No, it's nothing." Abel continued "Ah ha ha ha" and touched his head with a smile, "Actually, in addition to saving you, I have other tasks, but this Duke's Palace is so big... Come in
After that, I was confused, and I didn’t know what the target looked like... Fortunately, I met you, Kate..."
"Target?" Kate was stunned for a moment. Could it be Yiwen Ian? "In Yiwen Ian's words..."
Abel interrupted Kate: "No, no...Evan, I have seen the portrait, but I actually want to find something with Mrs. Sherrill, but you know, Mrs. Sheryl is not our target in advance.
So accidentally...I didn't realize until just now that I actually don't know what Madam looks like..."
...This stupid priest!
Kate no longer knew how to complain. Because she was speechless, her lips trembled slightly and she turned to look——
"Huh?" Abel suddenly realized something. Following Kate's line of sight, an ordinary-dressed lady with a noble temperament came into his sight, holding a girl in her arms.
He couldn't help but hold his forehead and sighed: "I see... I've been looking for a long time, but it's right in front of me..."
Abel raised his head, his eyes flashing with an inexplicable red light: "Then Mrs. Sherrill, can you please come with me?"
.
My head hurts...
Adishiel covered her forehead and supported the maid beside her, who was shaking.
Faintly, there were the sounds of other people talking in my ears.
"Father! This is it!"
Miss Kate's voice?
"Don't worry, they were just hypnotized by me."
Who is this voice... so familiar... but I can't remember it.
"Such a large-scale hypnosis... Father, who are you?" Kate's voice was filled with shock.
"It doesn't matter who I am, Sister Kate. I have other things to do next. Can you rush out of the Duke's Palace by yourself? Walk a little further, and on the first floor, there is the Holy Walk of Fame.
Someone is here to pick you up."
Edacil gradually remembered the silver-haired priest, the red eyes, and then the heavy blow to the forehead following the words.
"...If I am alone, it doesn't matter, but what about the Duchess and the others? Father, what do you want her to do when you are looking for her?"
Kate's voice continued.
"...Well..." The owner of the voice did not answer directly, "Is this girl... Princess Yilier?"
Adishiel managed to open her eyes. Her eyes were blood red, but she could barely see. The silver-haired priest stood in front of Sheryl, leaning over to look at Yilier in Sheryl's arms, who was standing still. The girl followed
Like her mother, her eyes were dull, but she was already hypnotized.
Adehill didn't know why she wasn't controlled. Maybe it was because of the true dragon blood in her body? She couldn't confirm. But it seemed that out of confidence in the magic pupil, Abel didn't notice that in the corner of the crowd, there was
A petite girl did not fall into his control.
This is Adishil's luck.
Escape while you can... now...
Adishiel gritted her teeth and stood up slowly. The other party didn't know what she wanted to do, but the church and the Silver Rose Family were enemies, but that didn't mean they were friends with the remnants of Nanling. Taking advantage of the current situation, she quietly left to protect herself.
That's the best policy.
However, she hesitated. The other party was obviously targeting the Duke's family. Her family was ruined by the Silver Rose. She should have been cheering for this, but her mood at the moment was completely different.
She only felt depressed, scared, and——
sad……
It was just like the day Longge City was breached, just like the day the queen mother and father died. Although it was not as heartbreaking as that time, it still had similar pain.
Although the time of contact is still short, Adishiel can feel that Sherry and Ellie are very good and kind-hearted people. If they were not the wife and daughter of the Duke of Silver Rose, they would definitely
Can you be happier and more carefree than you are now?
"What should I do... just in case, I'd better confirm with you Kate - in the order of the Pope's Office, Princess Yilier is also on the must-kill list, right?"
Adishiel was stunned, and she couldn't hear what Kate and Abel said later.
Such a young child must be killed just because of the unusual blood in his body...
The blood of a true dragon and the blood of a heretic are both cursed objects. They are both girls in despair. They have to face endless attacks and assassins since they were minors...
What's the difference between this Yilier and her!
Adheer stood up.
Throwing her long dark golden hair behind her, her golden dragon eyes reflected a bright light under the light of the corridor.
Adishiel is very self-aware. Facing these two people, she probably has no chance of winning despite her poor physical fitness. But even if she is like this, if she just wants to rescue Yilier, it is enough!
When Abel heard the "clink" sound of the sword being unsheathed and looked over in shock, it was already too late.
The dagger pulled out from the maid sergeant's belt was held straight. The petite girl had jumped up high and stabbed Abel in the eye with the sword!
"Ouch!" Abel screamed, and a quick thrust cut away a strand of bangs on his forehead.
"Father!" Abel sat down on the ground. Kate had just grasped the hilt of the sword again, and in a hurry, she subconsciously stabbed him with the sword.
The long sword and the dagger collided, creating a spark. Kate felt that there was not much pressure on the blade, but the figure of her opponent was like a flowing cloud. It instantly entangled itself from the flaw in the sword's power and slashed towards her wrist.
!
As a last resort, Kate abandoned her sword and retreated.
However, after forcing the two of them away in just a few seconds, the sudden attacker showed no signs of fighting. She pushed Sheryl to the ground, snatched Yilier from her arms, turned around and ran away.
Abel and Kate looked at each other. They were just worried about how to deal with the little princess. To be honest, neither of them wanted to kill such a young child. However, before they could think of making a move, they were suddenly surprised by a man who suddenly appeared.
The girl who came out disrupted the situation.
Kate felt faintly relieved.
However, the attacker's sharp and precise swordsmanship still scares Kate even now. The opponent is not willing to fight, but what if the opponent's purpose is to kill her from the beginning? Can she stop him?
Recalling the girl's golden beast eyes flashing with cold eyes in that brief fight, Kate suddenly realized that she could not answer this question.
