Chapter Seventeen: Gringo
It should be common sense that a so-called castle must have a secret escape passage. But when the wall next to the fireplace suddenly opened from the inside out, everyone was still shocked. Considering that the fireplace is the place with the highest concentration of corpses in the entire room, from behind the wall
It was really scary to walk out of the emperor's family.
Thanks to Helena's lit candle, the guard knelt down on one knee in time without losing etiquette. Helena is the daughter of a duke, and this is not a formal occasion. Just pull up the hem of her skirt and bend her knees slightly. Zhao Wen is kidding
The clever boy hid behind the teacher's buttocks and escaped the kneeling ceremony.
His Majesty, who was surviving the disaster, did not have much energy to pay attention to the courtesy of his subjects. His Majesty did not even look at a half-elf with such inhuman characteristics like Zhao Wen.
After the salute, the duke's daughter looked around at everyone around the emperor. Except for the queen and prince, she recognized the royal steward Logan and the two knights. As for the imperial guards who came out to explore the way first, she only thought they looked familiar, but did not know their names.
.
Captain William's status was too low. After he got up, he had to stand aside with his subordinates. The honor of reporting the battle situation was left to Helena. Normally, a man should do this kind of thing.
But the men outside are either dead or have run away, or are not qualified compared to Helena.
Prince Edward is thirteen years old this year and looks taller than Zhao Wen, who is in her fifties. Helena heard that His Highness is a brave young man who once bravely stopped a thief who broke into the palace. However, looking at it now, he is dead
His Highness, who only looks at his mother's sleeves and only looks at his toes, does lack an imperial demeanor, and his courage is not as good as that of Zhao Wen.
No wonder your sister wants to be the queen... After telling the emperor what happened outside and the principality's army entering the city, Helena also took some time to think about it. This was the relaxation of the mage. Due to etiquette,
She couldn't take the lead in relaxing her legs when the emperor wasn't even sitting down.
To mages, the emperor is not only the emperor, but also their protector.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when he mentioned the principality's reinforcements, the emperor frowned. The expression disappeared fleetingly, but Helena did not miss it.
But she is a woman after all, a young and beautiful woman. Helena took the reason for His Majesty's frown as being unwilling to meet her future son-in-law.
Prince Alexander, right? Something must have happened between Leon and the princess to make the eldest son of the Grand Duke postpone the wedding date again and again, until today.
You are really good at bringing an army to see your father-in-law.
The female mage was immersed in the gossip that she took for granted. Anyway, with Zhao Wen here, she would not miss any disturbance. Helena's overly divergent thinking even thought that night vision and pointed ears were the reasons why Leon chose Christina.
Reasons to be adventure partners.
Is there anything else? Women look down upon each other, especially beautiful women. Miss Victor does not think Christina is prettier than her.
You have blond hair, am I gone?
Before the female mage fell into further narcissism, her students interrupted her and reminded the teacher that someone had come in, and there were a lot of them.
Helena made an expression like "Is he one of us?" and was satisfied to see the apprentice nod his head, and he had a clear understanding with her.
Elves are really good. Originally, you would have to have a dog for this kind of thing...
With the reminder from his apprentice, the Master told His Majesty that it was time to tidy up his appearance, as people from the principality were coming.
Her remarks made His Majesty frown again. Yes, the Emperor was indeed unhappy.
Since the foreigners were about to arrive, the men present acted as a temporary guard of honor. From the emperor to the queen, everyone tried their best to put on a decent appearance among the corpses on the ground. The sound of footsteps coming from the front made the floor slam.
They were obviously strong men wearing heavy armor.
The northerners entered the emperor's drawing room, and the leading knight fell to his knees. The respectful etiquette restored His Majesty's mood a little, making the thanks he said next feel a bit sincere.
The strong man who was kneeling and taller than many people standing was not Prince Alexander, Helena could see clearly. Just as she was about to ask the Duchy Knight, a sudden chill came down from the top of her head and went straight to the soles of her feet. While trembling, she said
Words without beginning or end entered her mind.
"Daughter, I'm here."
It was the Archmage, His Excellency Duke Victor, and her father finally replied to her message from a thousand miles away.
She didn't need to talk nonsense about where I was and what I was doing. How could the Duke be a great mage if he couldn't even figure out this little thing?
The half-succubus was very happy to be back home. The mistress had been away from home for a long time, and occasionally came back for a short time. This two-story wooden building was her world. Considering that devils are all selfish, half of them
Being of demonic origin, one is half selfish as a demon, plus the inherent selfishness of humans, combined to form Ivy's selfishness.
After entering the house, the nanny went straight to the second floor and left the mistress's beloved, Leon, in the living room without caring about it.
Ivy felt that she was very sleepy and needed to sleep. If the boy was hungry, wouldn't he find food on his own? This is how the half-succubus was raised by her mother. She just reproduced the daily life of mother and daughter for Leon.
Entering the mistress's room, the nanny threw herself on the mistress's bed, not even bothering to take off her long dress that was stained with blood and plaster.
Ivy has lived in the capital for a few years and is no longer a savage. If possible, she would take off her clothes and clean herself before going to bed, so that she could be fucked by Leon who was helpless but dared not speak and relied on his growling stomach to express his needs.
Order food.
It's not that she can't, she just doesn't have the values to put others before herself.
Pulling up the soft quilt, Ivy quickly fell asleep.
She will sleep for a long time like a hibernating bear. Changing forms between humans and demons to escape fatal injuries is cheating, and the balance of nature will still collect debts from her later.
Ivy must have slept for a long time, because little Leon, who was frightened by her, was so bold that he dared to shake her awake. The boy shook her too hard, and the succubus bit her tongue.
Due to the simplicity and roughness of the half-succubus, the little boy no longer asks the nanny for help for most things. For example, when he is hungry, thirsty, or is bullied, he will bear the responsibility alone.
But the succubus usually doesn't think too much, and she was very angry when she got up. As soon as Ivy raised her hand, the little boy was so scared that he closed his eyes, but did not dare to hide away. The consequences of evading punishment would be more serious.
, Ivy "educated" him countless times.
The reason why this slap did not fall was because someone was outside with a more annoying attitude, smashing her house, no, smashing the door of the hostess's house. They were smashing and shouting, and their attitude was extremely arrogant. This is where the nobles live, who dares to be so arrogant?
?!
Ivy pushed open the glass window and stuck out her head. She didn't think about jumping down and twisting the other person's head off, but it was daytime and the sun was shining in the sky.
How long have I been sleeping? Ivy yawned. She noticed that Leon's clothes were different from those he wore before falling asleep, so she was not sure.
After just one glance at her, she turned her head away. The streets were filled with soldiers, each wearing a blouse embroidered with the emblem of a standing black bear over their armor.
How long have I been asleep? The succubus grabbed her hair and wanted to find a mirror to take a look. Little Leon followed her like a follower, and the little boy was very scared.
"boom!"
