Princess' personal painter

Chapter 77 The soon-to-be married prince

At the same time, brother and sister Eunika walked out of the dark forest under the leadership of Jacqueline.

Because Horus launched a coup against the king, Jacqueline blamed the Ruolin royal family for her mother's death for a long time, and regarded it as her worst enemy.However, when she finally learned the whole story from Penelope, she realized that there was no villain.

The cause of the incident was that Enolie fell in love with Cornelia Bella as the princess. In fact, even if the people she fell in love with were both women, she fell in love with the person she shouldn't fall in love with.It was Enolie's never-ending love for Cornelia Bella that led to her tragic life, and also caused Cornelia Bella to die of illness in grief and remorse when she heard the news of her death.From the standpoint of Horus and the king, each of them lost their beloved daughter and wife, and it is only natural to blame the other for the fault.

Once there is a rift in the already delicate relationship between the monarch and his ministers, there is no possibility of recovery.

This is also the reason why Horus and King Andrea knew each other well. They both regarded each other as the greatest enemy. They both knew that there would be a battle between the two sides at some point.During the long confrontation, Andrea knew that he could not contend with Horus, who possessed peerless force. At the last moment, he summoned more than a dozen top court magicians, and centered on the Winter Palace, he planted a plan that could destroy the entire Iraq. The giant magic circle in Iris City... This attempt to perish with Horus finally caused Iris City to "fall" into the dark world.

In order to persuade Jacqueline, Eunika had a conversation with her earlier——

"If Xi Ya had chosen to protect you instead of sending you back to Alice, maybe things could have turned around. Now, do you still hate her?"

Hearing Eunika's question, Jacqueline sneered and said, "I don't hate her because of that incident, what I hate is her attitude, that kind of cheap tenderness, just like her mother captured so much. Most people, but she never did anything for me. Besides, even if I hadn't returned to Elise, the situation at that time would have been irreversible. Penelope has been using various means to persecute grandpa, Ender Philippe has long been prepared to die together... No one is innocent, and the destruction of Elise City is the result of their own choice."

Eunika was silent for a while, and then said: "However, no one has made an unforgivable mistake. Even your mother certainly does not want to see such a result. Growing up in a distorted environment, this feeling I am very clear, but even if you are hated by the vast majority of the world, you don’t need to treat everyone as an enemy, there must be people who can truly understand and agree with you.”

Perhaps it was precisely because of knowing Jacqueline's background experience that Eunika had a natural feeling of closeness to her, and she was no longer hostile to her as before.She imagined how Sisyana or Irene would persuade the awkward Jacqueline in this situation, and she couldn't help but bring a gentle tone that was very unfamiliar to her.

"It's ridiculous. People who agree with me have never existed. Even my grandfather is indifferent to me and has never really cared about me. He has already crossed the Tiansuo Mountains and went to the Eastern Continent to seek his ideals. He left me alone. People abandoned this place... Once I thought I finally found someone who could be my friend, but that person also betrayed me at a critical moment." Jacqueline shook her head and said, "In your eyes, the witch is still evil It’s a synonym, it’s not guaranteed that a vicious curse will be cast behind the back.”

"So, do you plan to live your whole life in this square inch world you control?" Eunika asked calmly, "Just like your mother, who lost everything and died in endless loneliness. No, At least she once fought so desperately and had a short-lived happiness..."

Jacqueline glared at Eunika: "To piss me off here, are you courting death?"

"So, do you dare to kill me?" Eunika seemed to have seen through Jacqueline, and asked lightly, "If you kill me, it means that you and Xi Ya are completely opposed, and you will lose the relationship with Irene." The possibility of reconciliation...do you dare to commit the real crime and break with the world you hate to the end?"

"You think I dare not?"

With that said, Jacqueline pointed the staff at Unica, and a powerful coercion suddenly radiated from her body.As a result, the world controlled by the witch suddenly changed. Thick dark clouds gathered above the two of them, and the terrifying thunder suddenly exploded in the ears of the silver-haired gale.

Not far away, the giant dragon let out a roar that pierced through the sky and soared into the sky.

I saw Unica took out the short sword expressionlessly, and the sword intent rose rapidly in the cold aura: "If you want to kill me, just come and fight."

On the top of the mountain where the wind and rain were about to come, the two confronted each other for a long time.

After all, Jacqueline didn't make a move, and withdrew her magic power without saying a word.

Then, she handed Penelope, who was still in a coma, to the care of the townspeople in Liuying Town, and together with the Unika brothers and sisters, they traveled through the dangerous dark forest and came to the southeast boundary of the area where the demons lived.

The reason why Jacqueline has been wandering around in the dark world is actually because there is someone she wants to find among the lost in Elise City, that is, Lawrence, who has taken good care of her and is regarded as her brother by her.This popular Prince His Royal Highness is also the first object of love in Jacqueline's ignorant girl feelings.Even though she was "betrayed" back then, Lawrence still held a heavy weight in her heart.

Jacqueline spent a lot of thought, planting many monitoring spells in the demons' territory, just to search for the traces of Lawrence.After finally obtaining effective information, even without Eunika's persuasion, she still planned to find the unfortunate and distressed Lawrence alone, and confirm with her own eyes whether he was dead or alive—of course, regarding her own plan, Jacqueline I will never admit it with my mouth.

With the help of Jacqueline's invisible magic, the three of them were not suspected by anyone along the way, and they entered the big city of the demons smoothly.Although there was a language barrier during this period, it was too easy to extract information from these low-strength demons with the means of a witch.

The information about Lawrence came unexpectedly simple.

Or...it's a little weird.

Her Majesty the Queen of this country, Mevia Sekalixi, openly violated the orders of the Demon God Hall, not only privately sheltered a wanted human being, but also planned to marry this human being, which has long been discussed among the demon people The ground is uproarious.During this period, in order to allow the wedding to proceed smoothly, the young and wayward queen ordered the dismissal and even execution of many ministers who opposed it.

The person who is going to marry Mevia is the Prince Wakabayashi, Laurence Theresia, whom the three of them are looking for.

When she heard the news, Jacqueline gritted her teeth, trying to suppress the impending attack.

Chapter 78 Prelude to the Wedding

A restless atmosphere is spreading in the city.

Even the three of Eunika, who belonged to outsiders, could feel the aura of the coming storm.

Since they couldn't find out the specific location of Lawrence in a short time, the three of them decided to lurk temporarily after discussing it, and then play it by ear when the wedding is in progress.With Unika's strength that has reached the holy rank, coupled with Jacqueline's unpredictable methods, there should be a chance to rescue Lawrence.

As long as Lawrence can be rescued, the group can ride the black dragon and fly directly to the dark area in the south, which is an area that the demons dare not set foot on easily.During this period, Unika managed to get Jacqueline to agree to return to Bailin Castle with everyone at that time, to meet with Sisyana, and to eliminate past prejudices and suspicions.

Even if the two sides cannot become allies because of the grievances of the previous generation, at least they can end the confrontation.

In this way, the three waited patiently while observing the situation around the palace.

A few days later, as one of the Seven Pillars of the Demon Clan, Her Majesty Mevia Sekalixi, the Queen of the Kingdom of Confusion, whose family name means "confused in the illusory", and the Prince Ruolin, who was in trouble in the dark world, Lawrence Teresia's wedding will be held as scheduled in the square in front of the palace and with the blessings of the people.

However, Eunika did not feel the joyful atmosphere in this city, and almost everyone walking on the street looked worried.As for the soldiers who had been stationed around the square early, they showed an attitude of facing an enemy, as if they had already realized that something would happen to this wedding.

Sensing this unusual aura, Unika cast an inquiring gaze at Jacqueline.

Jacqueline shook her head and said: "I don't know about the internal situation of the demons. I only know that the combination of demons and humans violates the laws formulated by the Demon God Hall, especially the royal family, one of the seven pillars. This kind of behavior is no different from betrayal within the demon clan... The Demon God Hall should not sit idly by."

"It seems that even if we don't show up, there will be a turmoil today." Wenjiesi thought about it, and told the other two, "Well, even if His Royal Highness Lawrence shows up later, let's not rush to act , observe the situation first, and make sure everything is safe before taking action to save people.”

In the crowded square where tens of thousands of people gathered, the elegant and romantic music sounded first.Immediately afterwards, a guard of honor in red and white uniforms came to the center of the square with neat steps, and sang exotic songs along with the melody.

As the magnificent and charming singing unfolded leisurely, a group of dancers in light veils came in from around the square. The people danced lightly among the people.They boldly showed their figures that could not be concealed by the thin veils, and some dancers even extended their hands to the young men in the crowd to invite them, leading them who were at a loss to join the group of dancers.Between the fluttering skirts and the occasional spring light, dancers with moving smiles flirt with these clumsy youths with red cheeks more wantonly. The silver bell-like laughter from their red lips is like a pleasant The spring breeze quietly dispelled the uneasiness in people's hearts.

Not long after, the opening song and dance performance ended, and the dancers left the stage amidst sultry chuckles. The guard of honor in the center of the square aimed their salutes at the sky and fired them one by one—thus, the wedding ceremony The curtain was drawn amidst the gorgeous fireworks in the sky.

The bright red carpet was spread from the gate of the palace all the way to the center of the square. Amidst the solemn music, the two figures entered the square surrounded by a group of guards behind them.The one on the left is a woman in a bright red dress, wrapped in bright red fabric, she is as delicate and charming as acacia beans; A handsome young man in a white military uniform.

As the groom who will marry the Queen, it is undoubtedly Lawrence.

Finally seeing the person she had been looking for for a long time, Jacquiline's voice was distinctly gloomy: "It's really him, I can't see the feeling of being coerced at all... first it was the woman named Nancy, and then it was the Queen of the Demon Race. Hmph , Sure enough, men are playboys!"

Wenjiesi shook his head: "Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. Your Highness may have some unavoidable difficulties."

"Even if there are difficulties..." Jacqueline said through gritted teeth, "That still can't clear up the fact that he intends to marry this woman. I'd like to see how he explains it later!"

It was rare to see Jacqueline caring so much about someone, Wenjiesi couldn't help but reminded with a wry smile: "Miss Jacqueline, there will definitely be a battle going on, so it's better to keep calm first."

About three or four years ago, the relationship between Jacqueline and members of the Wakabayashi royal family was still very good.Although Jacqueline, who was only about nine years old at the time, was willful and mischievous, her personality was not as bad as it is now.The three Sisyana sisters love Jacqueline very much on weekdays, and Lawrence often acts as an older brother to settle troubles for Jacqueline who is in trouble... However, this harmonious atmosphere does not last long. It didn't take long. With the marriage of Sisyana's two sisters and the love between Lawrence and Nancy, Jacqueline seemed to be a different person. She became the villain in the eyes of the world. little witch.

Did it become like this because of losing a playmate?

After all, apart from members of the royal family, no one else can get along with Jacqueline on an equal footing.

If... His Royal Highness Lawrence was able to maintain a good relationship with her, or even make an engagement with her, would it make Horus change his mind and continue to guard the kingdom?I remember that once Prime Minister Penelope proposed a marriage proposal at the imperial meeting... Was it because of the objection of His Majesty the King that it fell through?

Wenjiesi narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought for a while.

Unfortunately, it doesn't make sense to think about these "what ifs" now.It is precisely because of all kinds of mishaps that led to the current situation that Her Royal Highness the Princess who retired from Anruer was given an excellent opportunity to fight side by side with His Royal Highness Irene as fate would have it. Let my sister and I gain the possibility of revenge for the family... Maybe this is the only correct way...

Lord Laurence, I would rather you marry this queen of your own accord.

As your friend, I know you too well. Your character is far inferior to Her Royal Highness, who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. You can't lead Ruolin to the road of glory, and you lack the courage to challenge the rising Anluer... Only Her Royal Highness, who has grown up rapidly amid the ordeals, is the most suitable person to be the "King".

If you were really allowed to return to Bailin Castle, with the character of Her Royal Highness, you might hand over the power that belongs to her... No, you have to find a way to prevent this from happening...

In the depths of Wenjiesi's heart, a terrible thought flashed across.

Chapter 79 The Bloody Wedding in Bloom

Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of people, Lawrence and Mevia walked to the center of the square hand in hand.

I saw an old man holding a scepter coming in front of the two. After praying for the couple, he took out a red rope and let the two show their wrists. The rope was tied around the wrists of Lawrence and Mevia, and the ceremony for them to swear the vows of mutual support.

At the critical moment, a violent gust of wind swept in with countless gravel, blowing away the red rope in the old man's hand, and also blinding everyone's sight.Hearing a loud rebuke from Mevia's mouth, the soldiers stationed around the square drew out their weapons with a "swish" and put on a posture of guard.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of strange beasts that looked like dragons and eagles flapped their huge wings and flew into the sky. On the back of each of the strange beasts was a knight holding a giant spear, with sharp spear points aligned Aligned in the northwest direction.

A solemn expression appeared on Eunika's face: "Those people who are approaching here... are very strong."

As soon as the words fell, a faint red light shot from a very far away, and instantly penetrated the body of a strange beast above the square.Hearing the sharp mournful cry of the strange beast, its huge body fell rapidly downwards. Amidst the violent rumbling sound, the huge body of the strange beast landed in the residential area near the square.

The vibrating ground and the continuous screams from the alien beasts completely exploded the people who were still immersed in the lively atmosphere just now. They pushed each other and fled in all directions in a panic... and this chaos In stark contrast, Her Majesty the Queen in the middle of the square, Mevia Sekalixi stood quietly in the strong wind, and she was not moved by the beautiful bun she had combed. There was a delicate and charming smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked up at the sky in the northwest direction, waiting for the arrival of the guests.

During this period, her hand was still tightly held with Lawrence.

Several blood-red glares flashed across the sky, and the three of Eunika felt dazzled for a while, and the beast knight guarding above the square had another round of confrontation with the unknown visitor.In the blink of an eye, several other beasts were severely injured and left the stage amidst mournful screams.

"Shall we do it?" Eunika turned to the other two and asked.

Jacqueline's expression was a little cloudy and uncertain, she had been watching Mevia and Lawrence in the middle of the square, while Wentiers looked hesitant, shook his head and said, "Wait a little longer."

While the fierce battle in the sky was still going on, a man in a red robe walked up to Mevia at some point and said something to her.

Mevia shook her head, then turned her head and gave an order to the guard not far away.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of guards gathered and surrounded the red-robed man.Judging from the expressions of those soldiers, although they hesitated, they still firmly carried out Her Majesty's order.

The man in the red robe was silent for a moment, and said something to Mevia again.

The answer to him was still shaking his head and refusing.

As a result, the red-robed man's laughter spread throughout the square in an instant. This burst of laughter had a dark but desolate meaning. Even though they could not speak the language and did not understand the current situation, the three of them could feel the ominous atmosphere in it.Among them, Jacqueline's perception as a witch is more acute: "This terrible killing intent..."

Seeing the man in red raised his hand towards the front with a blank expression, and slowly opened his five fingers, at this moment, Eunika had the illusion that her soul was being tightly grasped.She said urgently: "No, this person is about to attack, let's hurry up and save His Highness..."

In fact, there is no need for Eunika's reminder.

Time seemed to be frozen, and then, as the red-robed man clenched his five fingers, a terrifying mist of blood suddenly exploded in his field of vision, but the dozen guards in front of him seemed to be hit by some kind of huge force. Like a grinder, his life was taken away in an instant, and there was not even a stump left.

The blood mist dissipated extremely quickly in the strong wind, but the choking bloody smell lingered in everyone's nostrils.

Such an unpredictable method made the guards' eyes show obvious fear, but even so, someone still shouted something, and rushed towards the red-robed man who continued to approach the queen with red eyes— — Then, without a doubt, he also turned into a cloud of brilliant blood mist.

Even the demise without bones can't shake their loyalty to the queen.

Amidst the blood mist that exploded like fireworks, this group of hundreds of soldiers, like moths to a flame, rushed forward one after another towards the enemy they could not defeat, towards their tragic destiny, until they died At the time, they were all shouting the slogan of dying for the queen...

It didn't take long for this group of loyal soldiers to be wiped out in front of Mevia.

Watching the massacre, the smell of blood lingering in her nose made Meivia's eyes well up with crystal tears.And by Her Majesty's side, Lawrence stood there in a daze due to the shock, unable to say a word for a long time.

There are more soldiers rushing through the fleeing people towards the square.However, at this moment, the red-robed man had already walked in front of Mevia, looking at her and the humans around her expressionlessly, and like before, slowly stretched out the cane that could easily take other people's lives. hand.

The silver sword glow suddenly cut through the blood mist.

The man in the red robe showed a look of astonishment for a moment, and hurriedly withdrew his hands and took two steps back.There was only a slight "snap", and half of the cloth on the sleeve robe was cut off by the sharp blade, and disappeared in the strong wind.He looked intently in front of him, only to see a silver-haired girl holding a short blade appear in his field of vision.

"Human?" He said such a word with jerky pronunciation.

The dagger in Eunika's hand was cold and bright, and she was full of sword intent. She didn't give the red-robed man a chance to communicate, but launched a rush attack at a very close distance.The sharp silver light flashed for a while, it was as pure and flawless as a spring under the moon, and the power contained in it made the red-robed man dare not underestimate it.

A haze appeared on the face of the red-robed man, and the terrifying killing intent that had just subsided was released once again.He stared at Unika's figure, and stretched out the hand of death again.

Suddenly, Eunika had the illusion that her destiny was held in the hands of the other party, and even her breathing was covered in boundless fear.At this moment, the dagger in her hand was only half a foot away from the red-robed man, but even with all her strength, she couldn't move even a tiny bit.

This is a feeling of being choked by fate and close to death.
