Princess' personal painter

While Eunika was restraining the man in red, Jacquiline also fell beside Mevia and Lawrence.Under Mevia's surprised eyes, several terrifying tentacles emerged out of nowhere and rushed towards her and Lawrence.

Mevia was obviously taken aback, and quickly pulled Lawrence back a few steps.But seeing another sharp sword light sweeping from the side, two red silks stretched out from Mevia's cuffs, wrapping around the attacking long sword, but she was also forced to separate from Lawrence— ——Taking this opportunity, Wenjiesi grabbed the arm of Wenjiesi, who was obviously a little distracted, and pulled him to retreat.

Mevia's face darkened suddenly, and she raised her momentum to chase Wenjiesi, but she only took three steps in the air before being blocked by the tentacles controlled by Jacqueline.Jacqueline looked at Mevia coldly, and said, "Feel the anger from the witch."

Seeing Lawrence disappearing from sight, Mevia's eyes were a little dazed for a moment. She looked back at the man in red robe who was fighting with Eunika, and then looked up at the fierce battle going on in the sky. Fighting, after all, I held back and didn't attack.I only heard her ask Jacqueline in the unfamiliar lingua franca: "Human? Why did you take my lover away?"

"Lover?" Jacqueline repeated the phrase.

As if knowing what Jacqueline was thinking, Mevia went on to explain: "I didn't coerce him, he really fell in love with me!"

On the other side, Eunika withdrew her sword and distanced herself from the man in red.Her face was obviously a little pale, and the hand holding the sword was still trembling slightly.In the short fight just now, it was clear that the man in red was like a live target, standing there motionless, but she couldn't get close to him at all.It seems that as long as he is accidentally locked by his sight, his soul will be sucked into a certain powerful position.

That is... an irreversible will, and that ruthless killing intent.

This is a formidable enemy, Eunika judged.She already sensed that her companions had successfully rescued Lawrence, so she had to fight the red-robed man here, and all she had to do was retreat.She turned her head to confirm the line of sight with Jacqueline, and then vigilantly moved away from the man in red.

Jacqueline nodded, and tapped the staff three times in the air.

Amidst the roar of a giant dragon, a huge black shadow flapped its wings and soared over the square.Even the red-robed man who had been in charge of the situation from just now was obviously taken aback when he saw the black dragon falling from the sky. He looked at Jacqueline and said something in the language of the demons.

On the back of the black dragon, Wenjiesi and Lawrence had already sat on it.

Now that the rescue operation has been successful, the next step is to retreat.Soon, Eunika and Jacqueline also successfully came to the dragon's back for rendezvous.Immediately afterwards, the black dragon let out an earth-shattering roar, and flapped its wings away from the city that was about to fall into chaos.

During this process, Mevia didn't intervene.She covered her heart with some heartache, and looked around the bloody square, the sad expression in her eyes gradually returned to firmness.She stretched her hands around the back of her head, untied her hair, and let the three thousand black hairs dance in the surging wind.

Then, she gently opened her soft lips and sang a cool and lively melody.The penetrating voice was transmitted on the battlefield, and the sad but firm emotion soon enveloped the whole city... Inspired by this burst of singing, those powerful and powerful beings who were intimidated by the attacking voices were shocked. The soldiers who were hesitant or fearful when they saw the death of their companions mustered up their courage to die for their beloved Queen.

Then, her Majesty the Queen, Meivia Sekalixi, who was dressed in delicate and gorgeous costumes, also danced a beautiful dance, singing unceasingly from her lips, and immediately threw herself into the battle with the red-robed man.

Her figure is like a peony in full bloom, tragic and shocking.

……

"His Royal Highness, I have made you suffer."

After the black dragon left the capital of the country of confusion, everyone found a flat place and landed, and began to question Lawrence... However, since he was brought on the dragon's back just now, he has always maintained a distraught appearance. Even after hearing Wenjiesi's words, there was no reaction.

"Your Highness...you are safe now, please don't have any scruples..."

Lawrence's dull eyes lingered on the face of Wentiers who was asking the question for a while, then turned to Eunika next to him, and finally settled on Jacqueline's face, muttering: "... Jacqueline?"

"Hmph, I'm glad you didn't forget me." Jacqueline said coldly, "The woman just said that she didn't threaten you, and you are really in love. Is that true?"

Lawrence's eyes dimmed a little, and he whispered words of unclear meaning: "Voluntary, am I voluntary... Yes, that's right, only this can save those suffering people... I'm sorry, I There is really no other way…”

Seeing Lawrence's appearance of being hit hard, Wenjiesi and Eunika glanced at each other, and Wenjiesi asked again: "That means His Highness knows the status of the survivors of Elise City. Intelligence? Do you remember what happened? Where is His Majesty the King now?"

Hearing the word "His Majesty the King", Lawrence's eyes revealed a look of horror, and even his voice became a little trembling: "Father, father..." He paused, as if he remembered Some terrible memories, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, lay on the ground and couldn't help retching.

During this time, he retched and said incoherently: "Father... the child did not betray you, the child is just... that kind of monster who is neither human nor ghost, the child does not want to... please forgive me Baby, please forgive me..."

The other three people on the sidelines looked at each other, and even Jacqueline showed a puzzled expression: "What's wrong with Andrea? You're scared like this..."

Just like that, Eunika passed a jug of water to Lawrence for him to drink, and when he calmed down a little, Eunika asked the question from a different angle: "Your Highness just said, 'Only in this way can we save Those suffering people', what's going on? Does His Highness know the news of the other survivors? And... why isn't His Highness with Miss Nancy?"

What Eunika was talking about was Nancy Shazhi, a commoner woman who fell in love with Lawrence, and their love affair with disparity in status was well known to everyone.Even with the objections of the king and the imperial council, Lawrence still insisted on maintaining an underground relationship with Miss Nancy.If the two can finally break through the barriers of identity and come together, it will surely become a good story.

Unexpectedly, after hearing the question, Lawrence was in a trance for a moment, and then his emotions suddenly fell into a state of collapse, and he murmured palely: "Nancy... It's all my fault, she is the reason why those people The one who took her...I killed her, it's all my fault..."

As he spoke, Dou Da's tears flowed down from the young prince's eyes.

Chapter 81 Survivors

Half a year ago, Lawrence watched the destruction of Alice City with his own eyes.

At that time, Lawrence had just rushed back to the capital, and the first person he went to see was Prime Minister Penelope, but he was nowhere to be seen.Then he wanted to enter the palace to meet his father, but was turned away by the guards.As a last resort, regardless of his own safety, he met Horus, the mastermind behind the raging rebellion at that time.

From Horus' mouth, he learned that his father had summoned all the court magicians and controlled them by some means, and it seemed that there was some big move going on.

After hearing the news, Lawrence tried to break into the palace again to see his father—but at this moment, the terrifying aura spreading from the palace enveloped the whole city.Afterwards, as if being stripped from the original world, Elise City entered a strange realm, and the scenes in the field of vision faded from their real colors and became virtual images reflected under the water.

Lawrence saw a deep purple background hatching from the day, and those panicked people fainted on the spot, and fell into the purple along with the dismembered buildings, and some others tried to escape from this area. In a strange space, his body was directly torn apart by the distorted time and space, and he died on the spot.

Even if his strength has reached the rank of great knight, he is helpless in the face of this terrifying incident. He watched Elise City being torn into ruins, and he, together with the ruins of the city and many survivors, fell to the ground. A dangerous forest, looking up, you can see the purple sky.

Later, he saw his father in the sky fight with Horus briefly, and then a fierce battle broke out with another unknown strongman.In his impression, although his father reached the holy rank through training shortly after his mother's death and became one of the top powerhouses on the continent, it is absolutely impossible to confront the demigod-level Horus—— The kind of aura that shakes the world with every gesture can only be achieved by the top ten people who invisibly intimidate the mainland. However, my father not only broke out with a terrifying aura, but also fought against another strong man with the same strength one game.

During that battle, the ground trembled unceasingly, the light from the detonation almost illuminated the entire sky, and the sky was torn several times...Lorence was hit by the battle at close range, and fell into a coma. Knowing the result of the battle, he only knew that when he woke up, he finally saw his father.

In the dark palace, Andrea Theresa sat on a high throne like a king in the dark night, and said to him: "Lorence Theresa, my cowardly son, follow me Conquer this world... Even if you are betrayed by the gods, the prestige of the Theresia family will rule the world."

In Lawrence's impression, this was definitely not the tone his father spoke to him.Feeling something was wrong, he looked around, but saw a scene that made him feel shuddering—skeleton soldiers holding swords and shields, knights with red light under their helmets and naked skeleton warhorses, and gorgeous magic robes, The court magician who was holding the staff with his withered hands... Then, Lawrence looked up at his father, and saw his withered and pale skin and the pair of eyes that exuded a lifeless look.

That's right, the king of Ruolin, Anderfri Theresia, did not know how to transform himself, the court magician and the imperial knights under his command into undead, and formed an army of undead.The reason for this may be because he feels that only with the help of this power can he avenge his dead wife Cornelia Bella against the mighty Horus...

In Lawrence's eyes, he even saw the four knights who were both teachers and friends with him, and Andre Frederick was transformed into the leader of the black knights, becoming a monster without humanity.

Fearful, Lawrence tried his best to deal with his former father, who is now the undead king Andrea.And when Anderfried finally sensed Lawrence's resisting attitude, he was so angry that he even drew his sword himself and stepped Lawrence on the ground.

For a time, Lawrence thought he was going to die by his father's sword.Perhaps it was the last sliver of humanity that still remained, and Anderfried spared his son, and he expelled Laurence from the palace.In short, Lawrence escaped with a narrow escape, far away from the undead army dormant in the forest.

After that, while exploring, he gathered the survivors in the forest.After about two months, overcoming all kinds of hardships and paying the price of half of the people being killed, Lawrence finally led hundreds of survivors out of the dangerous dark forest and came to an open field.

At that time, he didn't know that what was waiting for him was the demon race that had become the mortal enemy of human beings thousands of years ago.The Demon God Hall issued a wanted order for the surviving humans as early as the fall of Elis City. Before Lawrence, there were also scattered humans who walked out of the forest, but without exception, they were held by the demons from all over the world. Captured by the coalition forces, he fell into an even more tragic fate.

In a sense, Lawrence may have been a little bit lucky, because he encountered a patrol team led by the new queen, Mevia Sekalisi.During the battle, Lawrence's heroic figure and righteous eyes made Mevia fall in love with him at first sight, even though he and hundreds of humans were captured in the end , but Meivia ordered the army for the first time not to abuse the captives, but instead provided the humans with sufficient food and clothing to keep out the cold.

During that time, Mevia often came to see Lawrence for various reasons. Lawrence, who was in despair, felt Mevia's attitude of trying to get close to him, and slightly reduced the hostility. Then try to negotiate with her... Just like this, the two gradually became familiar with each other, and Mevia also gradually learned a little bit of human language.

During this period of time, what Lawrence, who was a "captive", didn't know was that within the Demon Alliance Army, starting with Mevia's sudden change of attitude towards humans, a lot of cracks gradually appeared.They originally followed the instructions of the Demon God Hall and gathered here to resist the "powerful invaders". However, the so-called invaders have never appeared, and only scattered humans are waiting. Some people have long been impatient. What's more, there are already various frictions between countries... Therefore, the three countries in the north first expressed their dissatisfaction and withdrew from the coalition on the grounds that the Queen of the Kingdom of Confusion, Mevia, protected humans without authorization.Starting with this, in just a few days, the 10,000+ coalition forces broke up and withdrew to their respective countries.

After that, the Demon God Palace ordered Mevia to hand over the captured humans. However, at this time, Mevia had become obsessed with Lawrence and openly resisted the order of the Demon God Palace.

It was because of this incident that the Demon God Hall implemented an isolation policy towards the Kingdom of Confusion.

And, in the new instructions issued later, the attitude towards human survivors has changed from military action to comprehensive arrest, from "capture" to "shoot to kill".

If human beings were caught by the demons before, there was still a possibility of survival, then after that, the survivors of Elise who wandered into this world, except for the one of Lawrence, were either transformed by Andreas. Becoming a member of the army of the undead, one would either die in the dangers of the dark forest, or die under the butcher knife of the demons, almost losing the possibility of surviving.

Chapter 82 The Lonely King

"This is Nancy's relic..."

With that said, Lawrence took out a gemstone ring from his bosom, and said in a low voice: "I asked a craftsman to make this privately, as a testimony of our love. Not long after I arrived at the Royal City with Mevia, I I heard that another small team of humans came out of the dark forest. I asked Mevia to help those humans, and she agreed. I don’t know that in this country, many people regard me as a foreign race as a thorn in their eyes. Knowing my movements, those people attacked the team of humans before me... When I arrived, I only saw a bunch of inhuman corpses abandoned in the wilderness, being eaten by earth dogs. At that time I saw this ring in a pool of blood at a glance...it's all my impulsiveness that caused Nancy to meet such an unfortunate fate..."

The gloomy eyes and miserable face showed that Lawrence hadn't recovered from the pain of losing his lover until now.

Eunika asked thoughtfully: "So, in order to protect those surviving humans, you agreed to marry that queen, is that so?"

"Yeah. She's right. I did it voluntarily... She's not a bad person." After a pause, Lawrence showed a struggling look on his face, "Besides, she really likes me... My strength is too weak, my father and king have become like that, and I have no other place to stay."

Seeing Lawrence's self-abandonment, Eunika shook her head and said: "However, you are still Ruolin's heir to the throne. It is not your fault that you cannot save the human beings who have wandered into this world. Now Ruolin is because of you and the king. His Majesty has been missing for a long time, and has fallen into the brink of civil war... As long as you can go back, maybe you can end the turmoil..."

"Civil war?" Lawrence asked in a daze.

Therefore, Eunika briefly explained Ruo Lin's current situation. After listening to the explanation, Lawrence's face became even more miserable: "I finally figured out why my father insisted on taking the elder sister and the two His younger sister married abroad...Because of his mother's death, he had long been disappointed in this country. He wanted to destroy this country, so he sent his daughters abroad to ensure their safety...It was also for this reason, he Only when Xi Ya and I went to the south to provoke Horus..."

Jacqueline suddenly interjected, "Is the death of the princess really such a blow to His Majesty the King?"

Lawrence nodded and said, "Yes, when my concubine passed away, my father said something to me, 'In this world, there is a disease that can never be cured, and that is heart disease. Your mother is suffering from heart disease. I just passed away, and now, I am also infected with this disease', I will always remember his low tone at that time. Since then, the father rarely dined with his children, and he hardly walked out Going to the palace, staying in the concubine's room all day long, reminiscing about the past, only seeing outsiders during the imperial meeting..."

Several people were silent for a long time, and it was Eunika who spoke softly, comforting: "Please cheer up, Your Highness, Ruolin needs you."

Lawrence shook his head dejectedly and said: "It's already become like that, even if I go back, I can't change anything... Sister Isidore and Xi Ya's ability is higher than mine, if it's them, it's definitely not It’s a problem.” After a pause, as if he had finally made up his mind, Lawrence stood up and said to the others, “Now, please take me back, I can’t leave Meivia to fight alone... She is willing to be an enemy of the same clan for me, I can't just walk away like this..."

Jacqueline glared at Lawrence: "Are you really planning to marry her?"

Lawrence was silent for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, we have come this far."

Hearing this answer, Jacqueline was speechless for a moment.

"However, it's too dangerous." Thinking of the man in red robe with unfathomable strength, Wenjiesi shook his head and said, "We can't guarantee your safety."

"If I leave, the human beings protected by Mevia will lose their support." Lawrence's eyes revealed a sense of determination, "This is not a request, but an order... This is also my request as Ruolin. The last order from the first-in-line heir..."

Windies looked at Lawrence in shock: "Your Highness..."

The young prince nodded: "Yes, I have already thought about it, I don't have the ability to rule the people... I can only do what I can do."

……

The capital of the king of confusion.

Bare feet stained with blood, lightly avoided the corpses on the ground, and walked on the square.

The battle above the city is coming to an end. Obviously, what the arrogant Demon God Hall did not expect is that the Kingdom of Confusion has acquired such a powerful military force in just 20 years. They were suppressed by the apostles, but inspired by Mevia's singing, the knights quickly organized a powerful counterattack, and shot down those powerful apostles one by one by dividing and annihilating them.

The same is true for the battle below the square. Mevia is naturally no match for the red-robed man, but she is the queen of a country.What the red-robed man never imagined was that those soldiers would risk their lives for the queen to such an extent, knowing that one step forward would mean death, and they would use their own lives to consume his spiritual power... No matter how powerful the red-robed man's methods were, There is also a moment of mental exhaustion in the confrontation, which is the reason for his final defeat.

Just like that, Mevia walked up to the fallen red-robed man, looked down at her condescendingly, and calmly judged: "Uncle, you are the one who lost."

At this time, the man in the red robe had exhausted his magic power and spiritual power, and suffered many fatal injuries on his body. Obviously, the oil lamp had dried up, and he was not far from death.He couldn't say a word under the serious injury, and stared at Meivia with wide eyes, obviously there were countless unwillingness in his heart——

Obtaining the favor of the demon god, he was endowed with abilities that almost no one can match, and became one of the eighteen priests of the temple.This means that he stands at the top of the world no matter his identity or strength, and no one should dare to disobey him... However, it is the little girl in front of him who he looked down on the most at the beginning, who has become the one who ultimately took his life.

"Uncle, you must not understand why the father didn't pass the throne to you, right?" Seeing the suspicious look in the red-robed man's eyes, Meivia smiled lightly, "Because, father has already You told me that you were the one who wanted to take away the throne and caused brother Wang to be poisoned to death, and you were the one behind the scenes who sent assassins to assassinate the king... All these years, I have been waiting for a chance to take revenge."

"So, when I saw that it was my uncle, I was relieved."

After speaking, Meivia picked up a long sword that fell on the ground, and said softly as if talking to herself: "I still remember the scene when my uncle played with me when I was young, I was really happy at that time... …Today happens to be my big wedding day. If the person who came was not my uncle, I might not be able to win. So, even though so many loyal subordinates died, I am still very happy. I really have to thank my uncle... ..."

As soon as the words fell, there was only a slight blunt sound, and the long sword held by Mevia pierced into the heart of the red-robed man without hesitation, and the blood splashed suddenly stained her cheek.Feeling this fresh and warm touch, Mevia thought quietly——

Father, brother... have you seen it?I have finally avenged you.

Holding the sword hilt tightly with both hands, she maintained her half-kneeling position for a while, and after confirming that the red-robed man was completely out of breath, Mevia let go and stood up.At this time, her face was a little miserable, and she looked around the square area where almost no one survived, feeling deeply lonely.

Even if she had achieved revenge for her father and elder brother, and had finally found the person who had decided to stay with her for the rest of her life, and left her, then what was the point of such a victory?Even these direct lineages that were cultivated with great difficulty were all killed and injured, and in the end they ended up alone... Could it be that becoming a "king" is really such a lonely thing as the father said at the beginning?

Standing alone in the square like a Shura field, Mevia closed her eyes suddenly.At this time, the bright red long dress on her body, the blood stained on it and the original color of the fabric blended together, and the strange color made her figure even more dazzling.

After all, is it still too capricious?

The military force that has been painstakingly managed for 20 years is almost destroyed on this day, and the chief priest of the Demon God Hall died in my hands, and I will surely be counterattacked by thunder... I have inherited the secret agreement made by my father and the Kingdom of Violence , agreed to accumulate strength together and look for an opportunity to overthrow the rule of the Demon God Hall, now it is exposed in advance, even if my country is destroyed, the Kingdom of Violence will definitely sit idly by...

With a wry smile on her face, Meivia said to herself from the bottom of her heart.

Should be aware of it?That human has no meaning for you at all, and only agrees to associate with you for the sake of the lives of your compatriots, can't you see it?As a result, he was fascinated by him like this, should he wake up now?No, it's useless.In the current situation, even if you wake up, it will be useless. What awaits you is the end of destruction...

The so-called love, after all, is a worthless thing.

If he doesn't come back to see me within three days, he can kill all the raised humans and go to the Demon God's Hall to commit suicide and apologize. Maybe he can save the lives of all the people in the country?
