The Mythical Path of a Princess from a Destroyed Kingdom

The red color flowed continuously within it like blood, and before they could figure it out, the statue suddenly began to shake!

"Get away!"

Upon discovering this, the group quickly retreated. The next second, the entire statue shattered into dust, leaving only a few people staring at each other in disbelief.

Chapter 361 It's about time to go

"These are the magic book, monster encyclopedia, and herbal encyclopedia I received, Ms. Nia, please take a look."

Nearly three months have passed on the alien planet, and Maginus has not been disturbed by anything. The police have not been able to track her down, and Skruvepa has not bothered her again.

Having realized there was nothing left for her to do there, the girl packed her things and returned with Neko to the Bennia store to report on her work.

She dumped a large number of books from her dimensional bag onto the ground in one go. Bennia, dressed in a dark green dress, waved her hand slightly, and all the books floated and flew behind the legendary mage.

Strange ripples appeared out of thin air, and old books disappeared into the air as if falling into the water. Maginus, who sensed the spatial fluctuations, pondered that this was probably a demiplane created by Nia.

Speaking of which, her hair was also strange. The hair that should have been hanging everywhere was much less, and there were similar spatial fluctuations at the ends of her waist-length hair. Nia put her hair into the demiplane so that she could walk normally.

“It will take some time to compile useful books. Is there anything you want? Tell me first and I can keep a record for you. I will give it to you when I have made enough contributions. Or you can put it on credit first and use it later.”

After packing up a large number of books, Nia clapped her hands and teleported back to Red Sparrow City. On the way back, she asked Maginus what he wanted so she could make it for him first.

“Not for now… no, there really is one,” Maginus, who was about to refuse, remembered something. “I need a portable base that can be reused, like Leomon’s Hut or Gerd’s Tower.”

Leomon's Hut, though called a hut, is actually a hemispherical force field. When casting spells, creatures or objects within the field can freely enter and exit, but things outside cannot enter.

Spells and magic cannot pass through the force field, and it is bidirectional, impervious to both sides. The hemisphere is opaque when viewed from the outside in, but those inside can clearly see the outside situation when looking out.

Gaird's Tower is indeed a tower; when cast, a mage can create a two-story tower constructed of stone, wood, or other suitable materials.

The internal structure of the tower can also be changed according to the spellcaster's decision, with each floor having a different design.

"Hmm, everyday travel essentials... I think I have a few similar magical items. Let me look for them."

Benia hadn't expected Maginus to want this kind of item first. After carefully recalling her own collection, she realized she seemed to have a similar item.

Once back in the Red Sparrow City space and things had stabilized, Nia reached into the void and began groping around for something. Then she buried half her body inside, pulling out strange things from time to time.

All those magical items emitted a strong magical light, almost illuminating the entire room, even brighter than the Githyanki silver sword that Maginus possessed.

Are all of these high-level items?

Maginus couldn't help but marvel at the unfathomable depth of the legendary mage's collection. Soon, Nya pulled herself back, and a short hair emerged from the demiplane, pulling a stick-like object towards her.

"This is……"

The girl could sense the magic within, but apart from the beautiful patterns, it didn't seem particularly special. She picked it up and shook it; it was quite hard, and wouldn't break even if she held it through a fierce battle.

"Don't use it in battle. That thing is a mid-level magic item, not a magic weapon."

Nia raised her hand and touched her eyebrow, a few scales falling off: "As long as you insert it, a rather luxurious little house will appear where it is inserted. A protective force field will be formed around the house to ensure that the interior is not discovered, although it is not as good as the mansion technique."

"Okay, I won't ask about the contribution level."

Maginos nodded, looking at the open door, and the dark street reappeared before her.

She's currently pondering a question: once the lease on the villa expires, should she continue the contract with the wealthy businessman, or should she leave Red Sparrow City?

There was no need for Maginot to stay in Red Sparrow City any longer. Maginot had done most of what she needed to do, and her strength could not be improved much further through daily training.

“Ms. Nia, do you only operate in Red Sparrow City on the continent of Noir? I may have to leave Red Sparrow City.”

Nia, who had gone back to bed, raised her hand and tossed a ouroboros badge that curled up in her hair to Maginus: "Most countries' capitals own property. If you want to find me, just use the badge to find my house."

"it is good."

After carefully putting away the pendant, Maginos left without a word. Once outside the somewhat oppressive general store, the cat excitedly asked:

"Master! Does that mean we're about to go on an adventure somewhere else!?"

"Almost, but we'll need to wait a little while to gather intelligence from all around."

Maginus pondered where to go, since he had too many enemies to kill on his own. He decided to choose those enemies who would be difficult to expose or who he could use to kill them.

Upon returning to Redbird City, Maginot began to slowly clean out the villa. Her belongings, such as the sofa and bed, were removed, and she tried to leave no trace to prevent anyone from locating her by looking at her hair or skin fragments.

The floor was also washed clean by the life force, and eventually the villa returned to its empty state, leaving only a bed for her and Neko to lie on.

At the same time, she also looked at the current state of many enemy countries and quickly decided where to cause trouble.

That's right, it's causing trouble. In just one or two years, some countries have had their existing conflicts, which were originally caused by war, reignited and have even intensified.

The country targeted by Maginus is called Chrysanthemum Kingdom, a nation composed of elves, humans, and half-elves. Many humans have some elven blood, making it a rather unique country.

Although it was far from Redbird City, the newspapers mentioned the situation there, saying that the nobles and the royal family were fighting.

The main reason for mentioning the Kingdom of Julan is that the average person in that country is good-looking, and slaves, whether they come from the open or the shadows, are very popular.

In the previous operation to annihilate Nesery, the nobles of the Kingdom of Julan were the main force in the war, while the weaker royal family did not want to get involved. As a result, the nobles successfully got involved.

In the years that followed, the royal family became increasingly unable to control the large number of human nobles, and the original half-elf royal family gradually declined. Now, the time for a change of royal power is finally approaching.

However, it is said that the royal family of the Kingdom of Julan still has connections with the Elf King, and the human nobles are probably afraid of the elves and dare not take any action openly.

Chapter 362 The Princess and the Knight

With the day of returning the villa fast approaching, Maginos encounters the same guy who had previously tried to sell her the haunted house.

Before he could speak, Maginus raised her hand to indicate that he didn't need to say anything: "Don't worry, I'll leave as soon as the time is up."

“That’s wonderful, thank you, Miss Ilsis.”

The salesman breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that she had no intention of saying anything more, he decisively left and hurriedly went to tell his boss the good news.

After getting rid of the troublesome guy, Maginus thought about the acquaintances she knew in the city. There weren't actually many people she needed to tell before leaving, so she planned to visit them one by one, starting with the brother and sister at the martial arts school.

Arriving at the martial arts school again, Maginus glanced at the unchanged sign above her head and stepped over the threshold. The children's loud humming and hawing came from the courtyard.

The brother and sister seemed to notice someone entering the building and immediately came out from the courtyard. Yueqian was slightly stunned when she saw the girl she hadn't seen for a long time.

Although I knew a little about it and guessed that Maginus had escaped danger through some means and that Ilsis's identity had not been exposed, it was still unbelievable when we actually met again.

"Miss Ilsis, so the storm has completely passed? So how did you escape? I heard that a lot of mid-level professionals came."

Yue Liang maintained his original attitude, and some were curious about how the girl had managed to escape from the encirclement.

"Just a little trick. I'm here to let you know I'm leaving Red Sparrow City. See you again someday."

"You came all this way just to tell us?" Yueqian crossed her right arm over her left, a tentative smile on her face. "Are we friends?"

"Probably, though it may not be in the future, but for now."

Maginus did not evade the issue, acknowledging the relationship between the two parties. After informing them, he did not leave any gifts or anything, but simply informed them.

Watching the girl's departing figure, Yueliang gently nudged his younger sister with his elbow:

“G, do you think she might turn into an extremely chaotic and evil monster who kills anyone she sees next time we meet, or an extremely orderly and evil villain who only cares about her own interests and has no warmth or emotion?”

"Not necessarily. Don't you think her fierce aura has subsided a lot? In particular, the malice towards the living that emanated from the depths of her heart has also disappeared a lot."

Having sensed Maginus's presence, Yueqian sighed, "It's clear she doesn't really want to be the Child of Slaughter. The problem is, can humans really fight against gods?"

"Well, it's unlikely we'll see her again anyway, and even if we did, we probably wouldn't be able to beat her."

……

After bidding farewell to the two siblings who were considered friends, Maginus arrived at the Lusty Lips Ball and found Laura, who was focused on dealing with the followers of Bayer, to tell her why she had come.

"It's time to leave, Miss Ilsis. I'll be quite sad to part with you, such a useful mercenary."

Upon learning that she was leaving, Laura showed a tearful expression, which was extremely genuine, as if she was reluctant to let Maginus go.

However, the next sentence directly reveals her intention: the succubus is still a demon, filled with malice:

"How about becoming a succubus? You don't necessarily have to absorb life force. You're definitely a master at harvesting souls."

"Can becoming a succubus free me from my identity as the Child of Slaughter?"

Maginos neither refused nor agreed, but instead asked the question: the succubus queen was quite famous, and it was unknown whether she could contend with a dead god.

"Uh……"

Laura, who had been striking a seductive pose, was choked and fell silent. She waved the girl away sullenly, saying, "I won't ask you where you're going next. I hope you haven't completely fallen into the abyss when we meet again."

It seems that the Succubus Queen is still far from being a god. At least Laura wouldn't dare to make such a boast as to say that after becoming a succubus and being protected by the Queen, she would be able to get rid of the influence of the God of Slaughter.

Without responding to her words, it seemed that Maginus only wanted to say goodbye to these two families, and that she was not familiar with the rest of the people.

In the girl's mind, only those who know her identity can be considered familiar, which means that she can trust them to a certain extent, even if that trust is very fragile.

"I'm leaving tomorrow. I hope it will be a good day."

Having confirmed that there was nothing else to linger over, Maginos decided to hurry to the Kingdom of Chrysanthemum to find something to do.

Five months later, in the territory of the Kingdom of Julan, near the capital.

Wild chrysanthemums and orchids bloomed all over the mountains and fields, creating a harmonious, peaceful, and tranquil scene. However, the sound of galloping horses broke the silence as a young man in iron armor carried a girl through the flowers, seemingly trying to escape something.

The blonde girl had sharp ears, clearly a half-elf. There were ripped marks on her skirt, and her face was full of panic, with tears streaming down her face.

"Princess! We will definitely escape safely! We will!"

The boy spoke hoarsely, his chest and back covered in wounds from a recent battle, and his armor, which radiated magical light, was badly damaged.

The ground trembled more violently, and more thumping sounds came from behind them as a group of about twenty cavalrymen charged toward them.

As the pursuers drew closer, the boy coughed a few times, blood seeping through his helmet, and swayed as if he were about to fall off the carriage.

"Brian, stop running! Let's surrender! They won't kill us!"

Seeing her personal guard so badly injured, the half-elf girl wept, desperately not wanting to see her knight die.

However, the knight named Brian still did not abandon her, and continued riding forward on his own.

To their surprise, the horse, which was moving at full speed, suddenly tilted its head to the side, and a loud crash was heard. It was forced to stop as if it had hit a wall.

The violent impact did not harm the horse due to the magical effect of the wall itself, but it inevitably slowed it down, and the two people, who were already in danger, became even more trapped in the perilous situation.

Why is there a magic wall here?!

Arrows flew from behind him. Gritting his teeth, Brian jumped up on his stirrups to dodge them, watching helplessly as his beloved horse, which had been with him for many years, died.

"Hahaha! We've finally caught you two, Your Highness! If you keep running, your knight will die!"

A sinister laugh came from behind. The blonde half-elf girl made a casting gesture and looked in that direction, while Brian raised his longsword to block her.

The cavalry stopped and surrounded the two men, but they encountered a transparent wall along the way, only managing to cover one side of them.

Two spellcasters in the group curiously touched the wall. Brian gritted his teeth, looking at these enemies who showed no fear of him, and prepared to fight to the death.

"Stop hitting me, Brian! I don't want you to die!"

The half-elf looked at this scene and wanted to put his hand down. Just when the two thought it was all over, a house suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

Chapter 363 Ding! Newcomer Joins the Team

The house suddenly came into view, and they immediately realized that the magical barrier had been broken and what was hidden inside had been exposed.

The next second, the house vanished into magic, and two women in leather armor emerged from it, radiating a fierce aura—one human, the other a beast-like being.

"..."

Maginus and Neko, who had recently arrived outside the capital of King Kilan, surveyed the crowd. Neko licked the back of her hand, her eyes fixed on the blond half-elf and the warrior with curiosity.

"Kill them!"

The cavalry captain reacted and shouted. Regardless of whether the two people in front of him were just passing by, the dangerous aura emanating from the girl who clearly resembled the master alerted the captain's intuition, urging him to kill Maginus as quickly as possible.

Three dismounted cavalrymen charged at them with lances. Maginus, who had not originally intended to intervene, had no choice but to retaliate. She grabbed the hilt of the greatsword behind her with her right hand and swung it down with force. As she swung, spiritual energy and life force were attached to the sword, and she was thrown off her feet.

The crimson sword energy, composed of two energies, slashed out diagonally. The three cavalrymen who rushed over tried to raise their spears to block the attack.

However, it was essentially just a condensation of frenzied energy. While the spear shaft was indeed blocked, the sword energy still passed through the other unblocked areas.

When the crimson sword energy touched the three men's armor, it showed no abnormality. However, upon touching their skin, it immediately split into three parts and burrowed into their bodies like moths drawn to a flame.

"Ah!"

The three ordinary knights who touched the girl's life force wailed as their skin, flesh, and even organs instantly rotted away, their bodies collapsing to the ground, leaving only a pool of blood and the armor they had been wearing.

What...what is this?!

The extremely bizarre scene sent chills down everyone's spines. The cavalry captain had just placed his hand on the sword at his waist when the girl appeared before him at a speed that was completely beyond his dynamic vision.

Before he could beg for mercy, Maginus, too lazy to ask why, slashed the necks of all the pursuers with her sword, causing them all to fall to the ground.

"So who are you two? Don't lie, I can tell."
