"What's going on, guard!"
"What happened? Was the autonomous defense circle activated just now? What happened? Come over and have a look!"
The sudden explosive surge of magic power alerted all the nobles present, including the guards brought by these nobles, that something was wrong.
The subsequent dazzling thunder pillars that fell made them even more frightened. What happened? A sudden attack from an enemy country on the Aleister noble group?
Nervously, they ordered the guards to protect themselves. The nobles who felt a little bit safe immediately asked their men to check what happened.
The chaotic sound did not come again, and this sudden incident seemed to have been declared over.
"Don't act rashly! Stand where you are, and our royal family will investigate this matter next. Don't come near here, otherwise, anyone who comes near will be immediately regarded as an accomplice of the murderer and will be directly put into prison for interrogation."
The voice of the royal representative who spoke on the stage came again, using magic to make the voice echo in the surrounding space.
Before, he had a slightly respectful and relaxed tone on the stage, but at this moment, the royal representative's tone had become cold and solemn.
The attack on the nobles happened under the eyes of the royal family and was successful. This has completely angered the royal family.
"Hey, what's going on..."
Wang Yu had already started thinking when the lightning fell from the sky, and he calmly realized the seriousness of the matter quickly.
The attack on the nobles at the royal family's home court was successful, but if they had anything to do with it, the outcome would not be good.
What's unfortunate is that not long before the incident happened, he was still asking for favors from Crant, who was now a corpse. This was really troublesome.
Keeping his original posture without moving, Wang Yu deliberately eliminated himself as a suspect.
After taking a look at the constantly rotating materialized magic circle above his head and the countless magical filaments hanging down from the magic circle, Wang Yu was somewhat grateful for the existence of this magic circle that monitored everything from all directions.
This is enough to prove that this matter has nothing to do with him, Wang Yu.
The royal guards around the palace, including the magicians flying in the air for patrols, rushed to the place where the lightning fell from the sky with great efficiency.
After taking a look at Wang Yu, who remained motionless, and Krant's body, which fell on the ground, they didn't pause much, and quickly worked together with the mages to raise a barrier, covering the area hit by the lightning to Krant's body. The area of Te's body was shrouded in it.
A member of the royal guard at the level of a great knight walked up to Wang Yu and placed his armor-covered right hand on Wang Yu's shoulder with a solemn tone.
"Mr. Wang Yu, a member of the Night Blade special operations team, would you please come with us."
"Tsk..." He silently clicked his tongue in his heart. This is really a bad situation. If he goes, he will lose his freedom. If these nobles cannot find the murderer and are so mad, they will directly label him.
But after a quick scan of the surrounding area, three great knights and one great magician were found to be refusing. What could Wang Yu do to refuse them?
"I will handle the matter here. You first go to the mage to search for traces. Then I will directly notify the great astrologer Serin to determine whether this guy is involved in this matter."
"You may be detaining him now to await interrogation to give the murderer time to react. Only the quickest and most accurate judgment is the right choice."
Just when Wang Yu was about to bite the bullet and agree, an armored knight who was obviously taller than other members of the Imperial Guard came over and interrupted the Imperial Guard member who asked Wang Yu to be taken into custody by him. action.
Wang Yu didn't know what was going on, but it should be a good thing. As long as he walked in front of the woman whose power seemed to be related to the starry sky, he should be able to leave.
"Yes, Lord Uler, your decision is as correct and effective as ever."
After the imperial guard saluted the tall Uler, he ignored Wang Yu and went to the mage's side, waiting for the royal mage group to find the murderer from the scene.
Relevant clues.
"Come with me." Wu Le glanced at Wang Yu and asked Wang Yu to follow him. Wang Yu had nothing to say and could only follow.
But the name Wu Le sounded familiar to Wang Yu.
Captain of the Royal Guards, the most talented person among the Aleister knights, and the youngest knight. These titles are all used to describe this young knight whose experience is already epic. Uler.
"It's actually him..." Wang Yu really didn't expect that this being would help him out by some coincidence.
Standing in the distance, Edward, who was planning to stop Wang Yu because Wang Yu was about to be taken into custody by the Royal Guards, stopped when he saw Ule helping Wang Yu by coincidence, with a complicated look on his face.
Ciel nudged Edward with his elbow. This time Edward did not fight with Ciel, but just shook his head to indicate that everything was fine.
Ciel was also relieved and did not continue to send out the communication message asking Captain Sieg and Shougin to move reinforcements.
"All traces have been erased by the autonomous defense circle. The head of the Hahn family and the murderer of his son were erased by this thunder and lightning execution spell that is close to the seventh level of power. The clues are also the same. My retrospective spell has not The law works, what about yours?"...
"It's the same, it can't work. There is too little information left. The same goes for his son's body. The murderer was not attacked in the first place because of the special layer of material on the body that obscures observation. When he killed Crant, This guy left no trace because of those substances.”
"Damn it, he lifted up the aura shield that he released after lifting the Hahn family head. The purpose was to have the Hahn family be wiped out by the magic circle with him. He didn't even think about living. Damn it..."
In the rising barrier, the mages discussed the results of the investigation, but made no progress. All the spells used to trace back lost their effect at this moment. The man who killed the Hahn family and himself also turned into nothingness under the attack of the magic circle. The murderer left nothing behind.
Putting away the barrier, these mages belonging to the royal family directly used joint space spells to cut off the surrounding area, and together with the knights of the royal forbidden army, they brought these traces back to the palace.
As the alert was lifted, a group of nobles who did not dare to move because of the royal representative's words stopped in place and did not want to get into trouble with the royal family at this moment were finally able to leave.
The nobles left here quickly. No one wanted to be exposed to a place where they could be killed by a sudden murderer at any time.
Dawn broke, and it was already the next morning. The disturbance outside the palace had spread throughout the royal city. A nobleman with a title of viscount or above was killed. In full view of the public, the head of the Hahn family died together with his son. Outside the palace.
"Gah..." The door of Wang Yu's house on Hongfeng Street was pushed open, making a slight noise. The door seemed to have been like this forever, and there was something wrong with it. Wang Yu was too lazy to repair it for such a trivial matter.
The light of the magic crystal lamp was still shining in the house, providing illumination for the house which was not yet fully lit up.
Aviya was sitting on the dining table in the living room, playing with some small alchemy components on the table, her face obviously tired. It seemed that the girl had been waiting for Wang Yu all night without sleeping.
"I'm sorry, I should have listened to your advice, and I shouldn't have gone to the Laoshizi Elders' Association, and ended up encountering such a bad luck."
Wang Yu scratched the back of his head and said apologetically, looking at Aviya's obviously tired face, feeling a little distressed. He didn't want the girl to always worry about him. He didn't like this.
"It's okay. Who would have thought that this would happen? This kind of thing is always unpredictable. I just happened to be studying this new alchemy component. I just stayed up late. It's normal."
Aviya didn't say anything about this meeting. She just picked up the alchemy component on the table with a smile and motioned it to Wang Yu.
"You, ugh."
Wang Yu looked at Aviya's smiling face and really didn't know what to say. The longer he got along with her, the more Wang Yu felt that the girl was so sensible and heart-wrenching. It's not that this is bad, it's just...
"Woooooooooo..." The girl's soft cheeks were pinched by Wang Yu's hands and pulled gently twice, causing the girl's face to turn red quickly and she let out an inarticulate cry.
Not letting go of Aviya, whose face was blushing and her temperature was rising, Wang Yu put his forehead against the girl's forehead and closed his eyes.
"If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell me a few words, otherwise I will always feel a little uncomfortable. You can just think that I am in debt." Wang's words came out of his mouth and passed into Aviya's ears, making the girl's His body shook.
Letting go of the hands holding the girl's cheeks, Wang Yu looked seriously into Aviya's eyes, as if to confirm that his words were sincere.
"Can you please stop getting yourself into such dangerous and troublesome situations in the future? I'll be really worried and... a little angry."
The girl's complaint came out of her mouth, but the tone was not strong no matter what, but the meaning was expressed clearly.
"Okay, I'll try my best, but I might not be able to do it." Wang Yu replied with a smile.
"Huh? Is that it? This is too casual."
The girl was a little dumbfounded. Wang Yu's answer couldn't be said to be perfunctory. It could only be said that he was trying to coax a child. This made the girl's tone unknowingly become more angry, and she hit Wang Yu's chest with her fist.
"Haha, I'm sorry, isn't that good? Aviya, if you have any dissatisfaction, just tell me directly. Don't worry about causing trouble to me. You won't be my trouble. There are only those messes in the royal city. It’s the stuff that really causes me trouble.”
Wang Yu smiled and let Aviya's fist hit him. Of course, he didn't mean to make the girl angry, but he just hoped that the girl could express her inner emotions more directly, which was quite important.
"I promise you, I will not put myself in danger under any unnecessary circumstances." After laughing, Wang Yu also gave a truly serious reply.
"Well, okay, if you are really in danger, then, just like you saved me before, let me save you instead." The girl nodded with satisfaction, then hugged her arms and faced Wang Yu said.
"Ah this." Wang Yu glanced at the pile of alchemical components on the table, could it be...
"Thank you." Giving Aviya a hug, Wang Yu sat next to the girl, and the girl leaned her body on Wang Yu's shoulder.
"Wang Yu."
"Um?"
"I said, I don't think there is any need for us to stay in the Royal City. When I first came here, I thought this place was pretty good, but the longer I stayed, the more troublesome it became."
"Not to say that everything here is annoying, Stevenson Magic Academy, Wang Yu, your friends of the Night Blade, the Night Church of the Shadow of the Royal City, and that interesting and kind god, Darkness Ms. Si, you all make me feel great."
"But, I always feel that my hands are tied here, not only by me, but also by you Wang Yu. Don't you think that sometimes you have a lot more worries? There are a lot of things to think about and a lot of rules to pay attention to. I think , Wangcheng is actually not suitable for you, Wang Yu."
"Haha, indeed, I also think that although there are many opportunities to become stronger in the Royal City, there are too many messy things. This world is quite big, and I think I should find a chance to go and see it, Ivy Ya, what about you?"
"Yeah, I think so too. Although it is very convenient to learn magic in the royal city and there are many alchemy resources, I still want to see everywhere. This should be one of my hobbies."
"Well, let me think about it, wait until the war with Seventan is over. If you leave before then, the situation will be too chaotic, and you may also be directly framed by those speechless nobles. Wait. The fight between Aleister and Severtan is almost over, and I think it’s almost time to leave.”
"Okay, but Wang Yu, do you think Aleister will definitely win?"
The girl's question made Wang Yu rub his chin and combine it with what he had collected about Aleister's situation and some of the history of Severtan.
Wang Yu used some of the knowledge he had learned on Earth, and after thinking for a while, he made his own judgment with certainty.
"I don't know what reason Sevetan has to defeat Aleister. In my opinion, the outcome of this war is quite clear from the beginning."
The gap in resources, the gap in technology, and even the gap from the perspective of justice puts Seventan at a disadvantage...
"If that's the case, that's great."
The girl nodded in understanding. Aviya was very smart and knowledgeable, but when it came to war, Wang Yu, who had twenty years of experience on Earth, was better at it after understanding the world.
"Hey, wait." Wang Yu took out the magic communication device from his pocket, and Ciel sent him a message.
When he saw the message, Wang Yu's eyes widened slightly, and his surprise flickered briefly. He felt a little ridiculous.
Ciel's message was presented in text on the magic communication device:
"The Ryder family, including many big families, did not get seats in the Senate. This re-election meeting really depends on the results of the vote. Is the royal family crazy?"
