The demon princess was defeated and captured? Sorry, I acted in it)

"Oh...ok?"

Xuefei finally got up from the ground.

Although for some reason her movements looked a bit awkward, she walked with a limp, and occasionally stole glances in my direction?

Xia Leit is a dull-headed person, so of course he doesn't understand much.

But looking at Xue Fei's expression...she is going to take me to prepare to fight the enemy, right?

I don’t know why Xuefei is still walking into the auditorium.

But Xia believed her and just looked at the back of her head lovingly and followed her from behind.

Xuefei looked around, standing on tiptoes from time to time to smell the scent.

Finally, she stopped in front of a row of cabinets that had been smashed badly.

Xia looked closely...

——It’s actually the birthday cake supply area!

Looking at the cakes that had been smashed into cake sauce, a trace of pain appeared on Xuefei's little face.

Finally, she found a complete and safe cake.

Break the cake in half and put it in your mouth.

The other half was handed over to Xia.

"Happy birthday..." She said the first half of the sentence in a low voice, and then she resumed her nonsensical urging in the second half. "Hurry up! After we finish eating, we will go to deal with the troublesome things! We don't have time to eat cake now...! Slurp... Hmm? I have to say, your cake is really good! It's fragrant and sweet!"

"It's obviously you, Xuefei... Well, never mind. Thank you for Xuefei's blessing... I want to try it too."

Take a bite of the first cake you'll ever eat on your birthday.

Although it’s not as fast and delicious as Xuefei’s.

But the sweetness that Xuefei mentioned...Xia has already fully felt it.

Let it be noisy outside the window.

Don’t worry about the mess in the hall.

The two of them seemed to be in a field of flowers, smiling at each other with all their splendor.

- As agreed before, find a quiet corner and spend their birthday together.

After swallowing half of the cake, Xia took Xuefei's hand and looked at the empty gift room.

Seeing the hall and the door that was constantly blown by the wind, Xia finally took a step forward.

"Xuefei... Let's go and take a look."

"Great! Look who it is, revenge for the lost cake!"

49. Raid

Almost everyone was looking up at the sky.

No matter if it is a strong person who has already noticed something.

Or the confused nobles.

Because the sky right now... is really unusual.

When they arrived for the dinner today and looked up at the sky, they saw that it was a clear sky and they could even see the bright moon and sparse stars late at night.

But when I came out of the auditorium...the sky was turbid.

Dark clouds rolled in, with lightning flashing between the clouds from time to time. An ominous sense of oppression enveloped the sky between the castle and the church.

In fact, some nobles already wanted to run away...but what could they do? The king was still in charge on the other side. If they ran away at this time, their titles and properties would probably be cleared out the next day, right?

What's more...there's nowhere to run.

Here there are brave men, members of the Light family, and the Knights of the Kingdom. Is there any place in the kingdom safer than here?

At this time, Xia Ya and Miss Xia Ya had already rushed out of the auditorium side by side.

Looking at the sky filled with dark clouds, Xialett worriedly hid Xuefei behind him.

"Hasn't the other party arrived yet?"

"We've arrived." Xue Feiya observed the dark clouds and became more and more certain of their origin. "I am familiar with this magic power. Our guess was correct. It is indeed six-winged. Don't worry about anything else for now, Xia Ya. I want to confirm one thing. Do you remember what I told you before?"

"Uh...tell me...that...it's so embarrassing to say it out loud."

"Hey...! Again? Why do you always fail at the crucial moment? Stop hesitating and hurry up!"

Xia hesitated, her face slightly flushed.

I decided to be ruthless and speak frankly!

"Xuefei, you said...! You said you would choose to stay in the kingdom... and rely on your sister's help... right?"

"What are you thinking of? It's from earlier! Much earlier!"

It was rare for Xue Feiya to speak so seriously. She slapped the brave man on the head, angrily kicked Xia's heel with her little foot, and repeated what she had said before.

"I mean! If you face the six-winged demon tribe head-on, don't even think about fighting, and don't even think about winning by yourself. Have you forgotten all this? Is eating the only thing on your mind?"

"Wow...it's you, Xuefei, who only thinks about eating. I remember what you said..."

Xia covered her head which was hurt by the blow, but her words did not show any intention to follow Xuefei's warning.

"But it's not convenient for Xue Fei to take action now, right? Then the situation is different. If necessary later, I think I might 'temporarily' forget Xue Fei's advice, okay?"

"Huh?! But if you don't listen to Xia Ya, you will suffer the consequences!"

"Hehe... I don't care. After all, I have already said that if anyone wants to take Xue Fei away, I will help you chase them away. You can't let me go back on my word just because she is a six-winged creature. I always keep my word."

Xue Feiya was simply stunned!

Xia's sad brain works so fast... She even learned how to refute today!

But the timing of your enlightenment is really inappropriate!

She tried to dissuade her several times, but in the end Xue Feiya sighed in annoyance, snorted, and turned her head away.

——This is considered as a default.

"Really...Who did you learn this habit of not listening to good advice and acting on your own? It's really infuriating!"

"I learned this habit of not listening to advice from you, Xue Fei... It's really infuriating. I totally agree with that."

"..."

"Besides...even if there is any danger, Xue Fei will help me at the critical moment, right?"

"nonsense."

Sometimes the word "nonsense" is better than a response of thousands of words.

Xia chuckled twice and gently placed her palm on the top of Miss Xia's head, stroking her pouting cheeks.

Then he looked up at the sky again.

The thunder and lightning continued to surge, and the dark night became more and more substantial.

This stalemate will be broken.

The head of the Wright family, Eklet, who was guarding the king, asked his brothers to protect the royal family well, then raised his broadsword and took a step forward.

The broadsword's tip reaches to the sky.

At the same time, Acklet's deep and powerful voice resounded throughout the world with the blessing of some kind of magic.

"Would you please show yourself? Since the attacker just now

"The strike is a greeting, and now that you are here, why do you have to keep hiding and not show up?"

"Ho ho ho..."

"..."

A surprising scene appeared.

A slightly old-sounding laugh echoed from the clouds and swirled down.

As a bolt of lightning struck the ground not far away and burned the trees to a crisp, a figure gradually appeared in the sky.

——He was a thin, weak, white-haired, old-looking old man wearing a dark red robe, as if he could be killed with just one blow.

Not to mention that this was the nobles' first reaction.

Even Eklet, who knew the power of the magic attack just now, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the appearance of the person coming.

This is... the person who caused the riot?

But what happened in the next second told everyone what it meant to not judge a book by its cover.

Undercurrents surged on both sides of the old man's body, and in the blink of an eye, six black wings shining with black light emerged!

Obviously, the black wings were only about two meters away from the old man's body, but the magic abyss gave people the feeling that it was covering the sky and the moon.

"Six... Six-winged demons! It's a six-winged demon!!"

Some nobles have already shouted out what that thing is in the sky.

What people fear is not the six wings, but the meaning behind the six wings.

——Destruction, killing, fear, despair.

They have tried to escape. They don't want the title or the money, they just want to save their lives! But the Kingdom Knights have surrounded them tightly, and there is no possibility of escape.

"My name is Jeffrey." The old demon floated in the air and nodded slightly, but he didn't really look at anyone on the ground. "Hehe... It's rare that a human wants to say hello to me. I haven't heard these words for a long time..."

His self-talking way of appearing on the stage caused the king to frown.

The six-winged demons came to the capital... This is against the restrictions of high-level races...

The king is the king after all.

He ordered the people around him to help him prepare the amplifying crystal. Before the conflict broke out, he needed to confirm whether it was possible to achieve the desired result for both parties through dialogue so that he could withdraw voluntarily.

During this process, the six-winged creature named Jeffrey didn't care - he was also looking around, as if he was looking for something.

Xuefei, who was blocked by Xia behind her, was still mumbling to herself.

"What...it's Uncle Jeffrey?"

"Uncle... he must be a grandfather, right? Xuefei, do you know him?"

"It's OK. He was the one who taught me how to fish when I first started. His fishing skills were terrible. He couldn't catch any fish, but he always said something like 'there's no fish on the rod, but there's a fish in my heart'. If he can't catch a fish, then he can't catch it. It's as if he can catch a fish if he has a fish in his heart. It's really ridiculous. I told him it was ridiculous, and he got even more anxious. At his age, he actually overturned the lake. Don't you think he's ridiculous?"

Row.

Nashiya could probably understand why Xuefei's fishing skills were so bad and she got anxious easily.

It turns out they are from the same master!

However, Xuefeiya's observation was not limited to Jeffrey, who was obviously looking for something.

Behind Geoffrey, there was a moment of magic...

This was completely captured by Xuefia's visual magic.

"He didn't come here on his own."

"Could it be...the demon army is also here?"

"No, besides him, there is another one. For some reason, he is still hiding and has not shown up."

[Demon Surge] is a special magic used by demons with four wings or more. It can conceal their own aura and remain completely invisible for a certain period of time.

Just now, Xue Feiya's visual magic clearly saw the traces of the magic surge not far behind Jeffrey.

Others certainly couldn't see it, because the demonic surge was very complete and well concealed, as if it had been prepared in advance.

That is to say, except Uncle Jeffrey...

——There is another demon present.

And at the same time, he was observing something in secret.

Tsk...who could that be and what is his purpose?

By the way, why did Uncle Jeffrey suddenly come to the capital? Are you here to fish too?
