Reject me, you damn woman.

As she spoke, the witch raised her hand and gently touched the prince's brow, smiling.

"Another possibility......"

After she left, the prince picked up the communication crystal and sneered indifferently.

Who could feel safer than the extremely powerful Magic Bell Tower?

It's ridiculous.

What's more, I can leave soon with the help of the Magic Bell Tower, so what do I need this thing for?

Thinking of this, Zevis threw the communication crystal into the trash can beside him.

..........

Late at night, the cold north wind blew over the Rose City. Under the seemingly quiet night sky, a silent war between the crown princes was gradually coming to an end. The defeat of Zevis's side was overwhelming, especially after the forces of the Magic Bell Tower and the prince himself abandoned them.

Only tonight, their counterattack was particularly fierce, and they even gained the upper hand.

Even in this situation, there was still an elite team of extraordinary people who broke away from the tense battle. These absolutely loyal guys, under the order of the prince himself, headed to an inconspicuous coordinate.

This coordinate is not any factory, any important warehouse, or stronghold, but a villa.

An old villa that is a bit old has no strategic significance, but the person living in it is very meaningful to someone.

Even the executors of the mission were puzzled by this:

"Your Highness, are you sure? Are you transferring us away in this situation just to deal with this group of old, weak, women and children?"

"It's really strange. Even if we take this place, it won't be of much value. I don't know why we would do this."

"Shut up, everyone!"

The leading man in black stopped his men from discussing, and secretly communicated with the prince through the communication crystal sewn into his sleeve:

"Your Highness, we are already here. Are you sure this is the place?"

The man in black robe activated his magic vision and glanced at the villa where the lights had been turned off.

"The building looks ordinary and seems to have no value, and the permanent population seems to be ordinary people."

"Yes, that's right. Don't worry about it. You only have one mission, and that is to kill everyone inside!"

The prince in the secret base sneered.

Of course it was ordinary, of course it was defenseless.

There were indeed some ordinary people living there, but Zervis was certain that killing these ordinary people would be the best response to his little sister.

In the past, this ordinary old villa was also known as "Her Highness Historia's Palace".

Those ordinary people were servants who had been with Historia for a long time and were like her family!

This was the last thing he wanted to do before leaving the capital. He wanted to let his little sister, who had taken everything from him, also experience the pain of loss!

For tonight, Xevus ordered his men to counterattack at all costs, just to catch the upper hand Historia side off guard, and even had to transfer the personnel who were secretly guarding the villa.

In other words, everyone in the villa was fast asleep and completely defenseless.

He really had no way to deal with the prince who was pursuing him relentlessly.

But, Lynn Norton, you took away everything from me, and now I will make the people you protect feel the heart-wrenching pain!

"Go ahead, kill them all, don't leave any one behind."

Xervis gave the order coldly.

The silent voices of obedience from the men in black came from the communication crystal. These elite extraordinary people jumped and sneaked between the houses, and easily slipped into the unguarded courtyard. The pleasant sounds of throat slitting rang out, indicating that there was not even any resistance. Those family members that Historia regarded as treasures died silently.

When he thought of this, Zervis felt a sense of revenge.

It was not until the dull sound of the message crystal falling to the ground and being picked up that Zervis frowned and asked:

"what happened?"

"No, nothing happened. Thank you for your concern. Everything is harmonious tonight."

The voice coming from the other end of the crystal made Zervis feel cold in his heart.

He would never forget the owner of that voice. He was even imagining his cold and furious expression just a second ago.

"Lynn Norton?"

Just by saying the man's name, Xervis' voice began to tremble subconsciously.

On the other side of the crystal, Lin En elegantly kicked away the assassin leader who was lying on his shoe surface, and wiped the stains on the crystal with his sleeve:

"It's me, Lord Xervis. As expected of you, you can recognize me just by the voice."

And Zervis is close to madness:

"Lynn Norton, why, why are you there? It's impossible, impossible. I'm sure you don't have any extra manpower. No matter if it's Hilteria or the lackeys of the Holy See, there's no way they would be here!"

Lin En just smiled faintly. Behind him, the shadow knights who had not appeared since the beginning of the war were on high alert and murderous, and were silently and efficiently collecting the bodies of the assassins.

"Of course it's because I know what kind of person you are, Your Highness Zevis. It's really like what you said, we are destined to be together. Even our ideas coincide. I guess you will do something to Your Highness Historia's family sooner or later. They all think you won't do that."

Tonight, Lin En did not send the people who were originally responsible for protecting the villa to other places at Hilteria's request.

But his most elite, secretive and loyal team has been guarding this place and has never left.

As he spoke, Lynn glanced at Historia beside him and gave her a look.

Her Royal Highness just stood silently in the night, with a hint of sadness in her eyes that didn't match her temperament:

"Brother Zevis, why, why did you do this? You should know that even if you really fail, Sister Hill and I will not kill you."

"Heath...Teria?"

After hearing this voice, Xervis' tone finally changed.

It seemed as if he was switching back and forth between the gentle brother and the somewhat hysterical guy in front of him.

"Why would you do such a thing, Brother Zevis? I thought that you, who have no mother like me, would understand me!"

"Give up now, Brother Zevis, we will only let you receive the punishment you deserve, as for these,"

Historia glanced at the assassins' corpses on the ground, gritted her teeth,

“I won’t tell Uncle Karl and Sister Hill, and I won’t hold you accountable.”

Although I have made up my mind to judge impartially, I still cannot be cruel enough when I really face the person who sat by my side and read stories to me in my ignorant childhood when my desire for power was not yet awakened.

The other side of the crystal suddenly fell silent.

Just when Historia thought the other party was about to agree, suddenly, crazy laughter sounded from the other side, followed by extremely cold ridicule:

"You deserve to be played around with, Historia."

The princess' expression froze, and she spoke words as cold as a sword:

"You said you understood me, stop kidding, what do you understand about me?"

The voice from Crystal became more hysterical:

"You are the one that the Emperor loves the most. What does he think of me? I am probably just a plaything that can draw and write poetry!"

"Don't empathize with others without permission. You're just making people laugh. Princess, let me tell you the truth. Of all my brothers and sisters, the one I hate the most is you, a piece of trash."

"Haha, now that things have come to this, I do have a secret to tell you. By the way, do you still remember why Berens and Rosslet suddenly dared to bully you openly when you were a child?"

Historia was startled when he heard this.

At the beginning, Behrens and others would restrain themselves from bullying him, and at most would humiliate him verbally, but they really dared to take physical action, which eventually led to him having to move out of the palace, because of a rumor that had spread in the palace.

Because her mother was a witch who bewitched her father and betrayed the country, and she was the witch's daughter.

"It's you?!"

Historia's voice trembled.

She couldn't believe that this brother, who had the same unfortunate fate as herself and was the gentlest to her, was actually the murderer who truly ruined her childhood.

"Yes, it's me!"

"You have to thank my love of reading and art for that. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that your mother had such a story!"

"In fact, I really want to see how you would react if I told you the story of the witch while I was reading those boring fairy tales to you!"

Xervis laughed, his expression gradually becoming more ferocious:

"You say you have no mother, but why? When your mother died, she left you Fei Yan, but when my mother died, she left me nothing."

"If I were the one who possessed the Scarlet Flame, I wouldn't have to do all this to ascend to the throne. You know, Historia, all the people killed each other and ended up in this situation because of you!"

"But I don't blame you, because that's what you deserve, you, the daughter of a witch, you deserve it. Let me tell you, it was your mother who caused your father to be seriously injured. She is a disaster. No, not only your mother, you will also be a disaster sooner or later, and will only bring trouble to others..."

Before Xervis could utter the last words, Lynn kicked the magic crystal to pieces.

"Now, do you have anything else to say?"

He looked at Historia who was standing beside him.

The little princess seemed to have matured a lot suddenly, with two silent tears flowing down her face expressionlessly.

After a long while, she just said:

"Lin En, do you have any way to prevent Brother Zevis from escaping?"

Before this, when Lynn asked her this question, she said:

"Trash fish, hehe, can you just pretend that you didn't catch him and let Brother Zevis escape?"

Lin En simply walked to her side, stretched out his hand, wiped away her tears, and gently rubbed her red hair that was messed up by the night wind.

"As you command, Your Highness Princess."

He laughed silently.

He looked at the crystal in his pocket which he had kept well.

"Next, let the trial begin."

He couldn't wait any longer.

Chapter 200: Enthusiastic Citizen White Mask (4.7k)

In what could be said to be almost the last secret stronghold, the prince sitting on the chair was panting with excitement.

After successfully humiliating Historia, Xevus couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The fact that he had successfully shattered the last bit of innocence on that foolish sister's face was enough to make the prince, who had been troubled for days, feel extremely happy.

As for the price to be paid to achieve this goal, the prince did not care.

After all, everything in the imperial city is destined to be abandoned by him. They will be cleared out after he leaves anyway. It is better to let those useless guys burn for him one last time tonight.

After tomorrow night, he will leave the imperial capital under the arrangement of the Magic Bell Tower, accumulate strength, and be ready to make a comeback at any time.

For Zevis, who had been patient for more than ten years, this was just another time and he could totally accept it.

But what is different from the past is that unlike the weak prince who was powerless and threatening in the eyes of others, this time after he leaves, no matter which of his brothers and sisters wins the imperial election, his brother with the Magic Bell Tower as his background will become his lingering nightmare.

When I thought about this, the sacrifices suddenly became more worthwhile.

The only flaw was that his plan was still destroyed by that despicable Purple Gold Flower man, and until the end, he failed to make Historia experience the pain of losing everything.

Thinking of this, Zevis decided to try again.

He raised his eyes and looked at the silent man in black robe sitting opposite him.

This time, the man in black robe still used a woman's body, but it was not the loli body as before, but a beautiful woman with a curvy figure. Her slender and plump long legs were also covered with seductive black stockings. She was not barefoot as before. She was sitting elegantly on the chair with her hands folded in front of her abdomen.

Xevis frowned subconsciously.

Of course, he didn't dare to be rude to the guy in front of him, but he didn't know if it was his illusion, he felt that the man in black robe had been using the female body more and more frequently recently, and the details of his actions were gradually taking on a feminine elegance.

There was even something about his behavior that seemed oddly familiar to him.

Noticing the Fifth Prince's gaze, the man in black robe finally spoke. As expected, it was a cold female voice:

"Your Highness Zevis, did you invite me tonight just to let me watch this? To be honest, I am not interested in your drama of sibling quarrels."
