"It was Her Majesty the Queen who summoned me."

Locke replied.

How long were you inside?

"I asked through gritted teeth," Renis asked.

"2 hours."

Locke gave two thumbs up, and to prevent Renis from going berserk, he explained, "It was all work reporting, absolutely no personal feelings were mixed in."

"Reporting to a higher level without authorization?"

Renis's amber eyes narrowed into slits.

"No, Director, I absolutely did not do that. I was merely answering Her Majesty's question."

"What did Her Majesty ask?"

Before Locke could answer, the head maid, Mora Macmillan, urged, "Your Excellency Rhaenys, do not keep Her Majesty the Queen waiting."

Renis had no choice but to let Locke go for the time being and followed Mora Macmillan into the Queen's palace.

Locke overheard Rhaenys reporting inside on clues about the Church of Knowledge.

It sounds like the Queen values ​​the Church of Knowledge, or rather, she fears it.

The war she was leading was about to begin, and at this critical juncture, she didn't want any unexpected changes to occur.

The Church of Knowledge was a variable in her eyes, because it was a power she could not control.

But in reality, the Knowledge Church, like her, longed for a war.

"Renise, I'm so glad you've found true love."

"No, this is a misunderstanding. There is nothing between me and Locke Bemon."

Renis immediately explained.

“Although you are the director, no one is stopping you from getting married. If you want to have a wedding, I will make time to attend.”

Katerina smiled as she looked at Renis.

Rhaenys shook her head vigorously. "I will not get married unless Her Majesty the Queen does."

"Don't you want to marry Locke Bemon? Don't you think he's a very special person?"

Katerina asked tentatively.

"Of course, my heart belongs only to you. I will not change my mind for anyone or anything, even if Locke Bemon is indeed somewhat charming."

Renis answered honestly.

"Mora McMillan, what do you think of Rock Bemon?"

Katerina suddenly looked at the head maid beside her.

Without hesitation, Mora Macmillan said, "He's very charming, I don't dislike him."

"Um, Julie, Bronya, Sharona, what do you guys think of Locke Bemon?"

When the three female knights heard Her Majesty the Queen ask them this question, their first thought was that Her Majesty wanted to get married.

Because Her Majesty the Queen had just had a very pleasant conversation with Locke, and even touched him at the beginning.

"I think Locke Bemon is a responsible man."

Julie Townsend said.

"I think Locke Bemon is a handsome man."

Bronya Peters said.

"He can make delicious candy; he's a man with a sense of fun."

"That's what Sharon Bergman said."

Rhaenys paused, a sudden sense of foreboding rising within her. Knowing Her Majesty the Queen as she did, this was definitely not a good thing.

Katerina's lips curled up slightly.

"All the witches around me have coincidentally fallen for the same man. Do you know what that means?"

"What does it mean?"

"Head maid Mora Macmillan asked."

"It means we can't keep him."

Bronya Peters said with a resolute look in her eyes.

Katerina nodded slightly.

"Stop Locke Bemon and don't let him leave the palace."

The Kingdom of Tumen.

The warm morning sunlight filters through the dense foliage, casting dappled and dazzling light on the roof of the Basilica of San Figueires.

The church bells then rang, waking the devout believers in the city.

Locke was already praying in the church at that moment.

Don't ask him why he ran so fast. As soon as he heard Her Majesty the Queen talking to Rhaenys, he had already slipped away and quickly entered the Church of St. Rosalind near the castle.

It wasn't because he was particularly devout and wanted the goddess's blessing, but because there was a shortcut from the castle to the church.

The distance from the castle to the gate is much greater than the distance from the castle to the church.

Therefore, Locke chose to enter the church, pray, and then leave, saving half the travel time.

Her Majesty Queen Katerina was also informed immediately that Locke had left the castle.

“Your Majesty, please hand him over to Bronya. I will bring Locke Bemon back, and if he resists, I will execute him on the spot.”

Bronya Peters knelt on the ground.

“Rock Bemon is my subordinate, I will go and bring him back.”

"Please trust in my loyalty to you," Renis said, glancing at the Queen's displeased expression.

"I'll leave this to Bronya. Renis, please handle the matters of the Church of Knowledge. I don't want those lunatics to appear on the land of the Kingdom of Tumen."

"As you wish, my great Queen."

Renis said, looking down.

Now she just hopes Locke can get as far away as possible.

Bronya Peters stood up, bid farewell to Her Majesty the Queen, and turned to leave.

Charlene Bergman and Julie Townsend exchanged a glance and simultaneously let out a silent sigh.

In their eyes, Locke Bemon was already a dead man.

Bronya Peters, with her striking red hair, mounted her steed and chased after them out of the castle.

When she followed Locke's scent to the Church of St. Rosaline, she learned that Locke had already left.

Which direction did he go? When did he leave?

Bronya Peters asked.

"East, we just left not long ago."

The clergy replied.

Bronya Peters nodded slightly, turned her horse around, and gave chase.

To the east of the castle is Mount Jeff, which was also a royal hunting ground and home to many animals.

Bronya Peters didn't know why Locke went to Mount Jeff, but choosing to end his life there might not have been a bad choice.

When the popular actress Lonia Peters caught up with Locke, he was calmly drinking water by the creek.

“Lock Bemon, Her Majesty the Queen requests your return.”

Sunlight shone on the boy's short black hair, brown eyes, handsome features, and slightly upturned lips, making him look so pure and sunny, full of masculine charm.

Bronya Peters' heart skipped a beat.

Just like when I first saw Rock Bemon, it was a feeling of being instantly smitten.

Whenever she sees a boy, she feels an urge to take a bite.

Although Bronya Peters had a good impression of the boy, she would never go against Katerina's will.

Furthermore, she believed that Her Majesty would not make a wrong judgment. Locke Bemon was a very dangerous being because of his special charm, which could very well cause the witches around Her Majesty to rebel, which would be a threat to Her Majesty and the kingdom.

Therefore, since Her Majesty the Queen has ordered that Locke Bemon not leave the palace.

So, let yourself be the last person to see the boy.

'Rebel! Let me kill you with my own hands, you captivating boy. I will turn you into a specimen and keep you forever in my chambers, so we can be together forever.'

Bronya Peters's thoughts reached Locke's ears.

Locke felt that this witch was truly terrifying.
