It must be said that the power of a higher-level demonic eye like the Myriad Eyes is truly too powerful. If it weren't for Chishilika's personality, coupled with her inability to leave the Demon Continent, she probably wouldn't have remained so peaceful for so long.
"Pfft-"
After completing two searches, I crushed my own eyeballs.
Now, I have a clearer view of the situation.
Perhaps Rudius had received false information that Ariel and the others had taken refuge with the Notos family, which was why he chose to leave the capital. However, Rudius was unaware that the Notos family had already betrayed Ariel.
The Notos family is now in a dangerous situation.
The same is probably true for Gileno.
"Rudeus is no longer in the capital."
I said in a deep voice.
"What did you say?"
Alice, who had been watching me coldly from the side, was suddenly stunned.
I continued:
"The Notos family has betrayed Ariel and quietly sided with the First Prince's faction. However, neither Rudeus nor Gilena are likely aware of this. Rudeus likely believed the Second Princess had already left the capital, but this was false information. He was completely misled."
"In other words, their situation is very dangerous now."
I said, looking up at Alice.
"I'm going to bring Rudeus back now. If you believe me, come with me. If you don't, stay here."
After saying that, I didn't stay any longer and stood up and walked towards the city gate.
Alice pursed her lips.
It was as if he had finally made up his mind after thinking for a long time.
He also took a step and followed behind me.
Human-God Chapter: 144, Conflict
The city of Ars consists of six walls from the inside to the outside.
At the center of the innermost wall lies the Silver Palace, the power center of the Asura Kingdom. It is also where the royal family lives their daily lives.
The second, third, fourth and fifth city walls respectively surrounded the nobles and ministers of the Asura Kingdom, and were arranged from the inside to the outside according to their status.
As for the final, sixth wall, it was naturally the outer wall of Ars. Between the outer wall and the fifth wall lay the general area of Ars, a massive arena, a luxurious knightly training ground, the temple of the Order of Saint Milis... all of these things piled together to form an infinitely prosperous urban streetscape.
I walked through the alleys with Alice.
"Listen up, Alice."
I switched my eyes to X-ray vision and moved forward while observing the surrounding situation.
"The situation with the Notos family is still unknown, but Rudius and Gilenu will definitely return empty-handed. They won't find anything there, so I have to find a way to bring them back."
"But before that, our primary goal is to protect Rudeus' wife, Sylphiette Greylat."
"what?"
Alice suddenly stopped.
She glared at me from behind and said with an unhappy look on her face:
"Why would I do something like that? I just need to protect Rudeus. What does that Sylphy have to do with me?"
I turned to look at Alice who had stopped behind me.
"Sylphy is Rudeus' wife. Do you think she is not important to Rudeus?"
"I……"
"You like Rudeus, right?"
"of course."
"But Rudeus is already married. Given his personality, do you think he would abandon his current wife and go wandering around the world with you?"
"..."
Alice fell silent.
I continued:
"Listen carefully, Alice. If you really want to rekindle your relationship with Rudeus, you must correct your attitude from now on. You must treat Rudeus's family as your own family and protect those Rudeus wants to protect... This is what a wife is like. Do you understand?"
"wife……"
Alice's face showed a trance.
It seems that it is still too difficult for her to accept such a concept.
However, the current situation left her no room to waste.
"This is it."
As I spoke, I stopped in front of the door of an unremarkable little house in a residential area.
Such residential houses can be seen everywhere in the city of Ars, but it is true that such seemingly ordinary places often hide amazing secrets.
I reached out and knocked gently on the door.
"Boom boom boom——"
"..."
There was silence behind the door, no response.
"what are you doing?"
Alice frowned at me, her tone somewhat puzzled.
"Didn't you say you were going to look for Rudeus? What are you doing here now?"
"No, it's me who's going to find Rudeus, not you."
"What do you mean?"
"You'll know soon. Also, no matter what happens, don't do anything. Leave it to me."
After saying that, I knocked on the door again.
This time there was finally a response from behind the door. Accompanied by a sour sound, the door was slowly pulled open from the room.
The room was pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly.
I stepped through the door.
And just as I stepped through the door, a dagger emerged from the shadows at an extremely fast speed and was placed at my neck.
This sudden change made Alice behind me tense up instantly. She subconsciously grabbed the hilt of the sword, took a fighting stance, and was ready to attack at any time.
I slowly raised my hand, signaling Alice to calm down.
Because of the situation in the room, I could see it clearly through my ability of X-ray vision.
"Don't be nervous, Sylphy, it's me."
"…Ron?"
A familiar voice came from the shadows.
Sylphy, wearing large sunglasses, slowly put away her dagger.
She looked at me in surprise, disbelief written all over her face.
"Why...are you here?"
"Long time no see, Sylphy."
I smiled and nodded to her.
Then he looked at the several figures in the room and raised his eyebrows slightly.
There were quite a few people standing in this seemingly ordinary little room, most of whom I didn't recognize. But judging by their eager gazes, they must be Ariel's best recruits.
However, after I looked around at everyone, I didn't find Ariel in the crowd.
"Where's Ariel?"
I inquired.
Sylphy hesitated for a moment, but still didn't speak.
at this time.
"Brave of the North, Ron?"
Someone stood out from the crowd and looked at me with narrowed eyes.
He was wearing adventurer's attire.
His hands, having held the sword for many years, were covered with calluses and looked like he had been through many battles.
He looked me up and down, as if he had thought of something, and then looked at Sylphy.
"Master Fitz, what's going on? Could it be that this guy is also a supporter of Master Ariel?"
"This one……"
Sylphy was equally confused.
After all, no one expected my appearance, so it is natural to feel confused.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not your enemy."
I patted Sylphy's shoulder, reassuring her, and then asked again:
"I need help with Ariel. Where is she?"
"Hey, don't think you can be so arrogant just because you're a hero. Who told you about this place, and what's your position? And who is that person outside the door? If you don't explain these things clearly, don't even think about leaving."
As his voice fell, the people in the room simultaneously gripped their weapons.
The situation suddenly became very serious.
so troublesome.
I glanced at him.
"who are you?"
"North Saint, Philus."
The man who called himself the Northern Saint proudly introduced himself to me, but I didn't have any impression of him.
What's more, he is just a Northern Saint, which is no big deal.
I glanced around at everyone in the room and said calmly:
"To think you could trigger a violent coup with just these kinds of people... I have to say, this idea is truly foolish. I repeat, the person I'm looking for is Ariel. I have something very important to convey to her in person. Where is she now?"
"How dare you address Lady Ariel by her name... I advise you to understand the situation, boy, and stop being so self-righteous!"
Philus scolded coldly.
I frowned and glanced at him.
This guy has been yelling and screaming since the beginning, wearing out my limited patience.
It's really a nuisance.
Thinking of this, I hooked my finger at him.
"come here."
"what?"
Philus subconsciously took a step forward.
It's this moment.
My fist swung out like lightning and hit Philus's jaw squarely.
"Snapped--"
