"What?" Elise imdiately responded as she saw the icy stare of Silvester.
"Why do you always always drag Lady Evelyn's na? She's not around anymore."
"Why? It's the truth that Lady Evelyn did those things to "
Elise was amused as she was seeing the Crown Prince of the Perspiru Kingdom and a said friend of the deceased Evelyn was showing an awful look of anger. Still, she acts innocently.
"Do you have proof, your holiness?"
"The proof is you. Aren't you a witness?" She smiled at him.
"I certainly don't rember that Lady Evelyn did sothing to you If I'm not mistaken, the day of the hunting was when you made a scene by snatching her stuff. A deed that is not so holy..."
Elise grips her white dress under the table. And laugh the insult away.
"Is that so" she said.
"I might have a selective mory too" she continued.
After a while a nun ca and whispered sothing to Elise ears. Evelyn, who had elentals that were spying and followed the priest, ca with the news.
"Two handso guys with silky hair ca!"
"Red eyes! Red eyes!"
"So yummy~"
Evelyn decided to ignore the last comnt of a certain elental that ca with a cheerful voice. A certain individual ca to her mind.
"Stone face!"
"Sunset eyes! SIlver-blue hair!"
"Handso!"
Evelyn who has a gut feeling that she knew the people that the lower spirits are describing ca to mind.
'I wonder what are they doing here?'
A short while, Elise turned her head to Silvester and spoke.
"Who would have thought that we will have a reunion yet again?"
Silvester only looked at her and heard footsteps. He saw the familiar silver hair and the other who had a tint of blue and was wearing a tuxedo.
"Oh my.. Look who's here" Silvester said.
"Greetings, Your highness it's been a while." Cabel crossed his right arm to his chest and leaned slightly and bowed. Allan also did the sa.
"How are you doing, your holiness?" Allan walked to Elise and kissed the back of her hand.
Elise giggled like a maiden in love and smiled brightly. "Young Master Allan sure didn't change"
The two seating arrangents beca full as the two people eventually joined Silvester and Elise company.
"What wind made you two co here?" Elise asked.
"I'm just here to visit and to make so donations." Cabel nonchalantly answered without looking at Elise.
"Is that so? Then how about you Young Master Allan?"
"I'm here to visit you it's been a while since I saw my good friend."
Cabel and Silvester ignore Allan's comnts. The thoughts of a man who knew the facade of the woman he loved and blindly ignoring the ringing of the signal bells was sothing that neither of them can understand.
Elise smiled innocently to Allan's remark. Right now, she was in cloud nine surrounded by the prestigious bachelors of the kingdom was sothing that a baron's daughter like her can't imagine.
However, ever since that she beca the Crown Prince fiance and the crowned Saintess, her value exponentially raised and beca on the sa level as the King of Levingstone Kingdom.
Her worth can't be compared to the dead Evelyn that she so envy. Elise smiled again after she thought that everything she's done gave her a sweet fruit that she sowed.
For Evelyn who was silently watching this, it reminded her about the novel of "A Happy Ending" whereas like what she was watching, a harmonious relationship from the lead characters with the heroine in the middle.
Although Edickart isn't here, the rest of them can still blind the people who would witness this scene.
Evelyn flinched and her eyes went wide. The news that the elentals rushly gave to her put her mind to work.
Sir George who is beside her noticed the trembling grip of her hand. A suppressing cold aura was also forcefully suppressed from leaking out.
He whispered to Evelyn.
"Are you alright?"
Sir George's baritone voice with a hint of concern imdiately woke Evelyn in her anger. She quickly changed her expression and went back to that stoic face of the female knight of Silvester.
Still, her chestnut eyes were shaking and were clouded with what she heard.
A mont later, an attendant of Allan hurriedly gave his respect and whispered to Allan's ear. He stood up and the chair rolled over because of the sudden action.
"There's sothing that I forgot to do I'll be on my way first"
Elise who bid him a farewell with a look of regret in her eyes smiled when no one was looking. Evelyn caught her covering her wide grin and Evelyn's heartbeat beca heavy with worry.
The hurried footsteps of a grown man beca the music of the swaying trees, the silver-blue hair sways to the rhythm of the white roses. It was majestic as one can say however, his sunset eyes reflected anger that was suppressed and the bloodshot eyes were the evidence of his hunger.
Sir George who saw the restlessness of Evelyn spoke with a low voice.
"If you have sothing to do go. I'll tell sothing about it to his highness later."
Evelyn turned her head and looked up to see Sir George's emotionless face during duty.
She nodded her head to a bow and spoke her words of thanks.
"My company will still stay with you and his highness I'll co back as early as possible."
Cabel saw Evelyn talking to Silvester's knight and he sohow can imagine the face she is making underneath the mask.
He saw her leave and he slightly knitted his brows. Silvester who was sitting across from him followed his line of sight. He also saw Evelyn's back leaving her post and Sir George's serious look on his eyes give him the signal that sothing must have happened.
'Allan left with a grim look on his face and just now Evelyn also left. George wouldn't give that look unless it was sothing inevitable that he needs to do.'
Nonetheless, Silvester decided to complete his role while Cabel also decided to leave. Cabel didn't have an appointnt with the Saintess so he excused himself.
When he was in his carriage, he summoned one of his shadow knights.
"Look into it"
The shadow knight vanished like a flashed of light. Thoughts of Evelyn and Allan's face were what he was thinking.
"It can't be a re coincidence"
***
Evelyn left the temple with her stealth. Though it was the middle of the day, she needed to act fast.
She rembered what the Elentals said to her.
"News!!!!!"
"The great spirit of Earth told us to tell this to soone who is under the mask and is blessed with his magic"
Evelyn that ti silently knitted her brows. Chrisfold can telepathically contact her even though she is far away and might have to use a lot of magic compared to Gil who has the wind as his dium.
"The Duke of Emsworth have an accident in the forest of Deheldi!"
'Deheldi? The forest surrounding the St. Prisch Academy? What is he doing there?' Evelyn thought.
"It's an attack! There's too much blood!"
"Co Quick!"
Evelyn's face that ti vividly beca more wretched.
"Attacked by so mages!!"
Her mind went blank and Sir George's voice snapped into her own thoughts.
Evelyn procured a teleportation scroll from Alisha, the coordinates have already locked to Deheldi forest.
When she saw a dark alley in the capital and with no one around she imdiately tore the scroll and a light that ca from her feet enveloped her whole body.
The lush green forest with dense mana is what welcod Evelyn when she opened her eyes. She poured her mana to her erald hue necklace and she talked to the elentals that surrounded the forest.
"Tell where is the accident?"
Before the elentals could answer her question, she heard a loud explosion to the south of the forest.
Her body moved and rushed to where the sound ca from. While she jumped and sprint, she contacted Chrisfold.
"Hey where are you?"
"Eve?"
"Where the hell are you?!"
"I'm protecting your father like what you told to it's *cough* where the explosion ca from."
"I'm coming"
Chrisfold decided to contact Evelyn because he can't utilise his powers without Evelyn being near her. The amount of mana that he can use is limited but enough to be on par with Duke Keene and so elite mages.
However, when he ca to the scene after the elental that he ordered to be with the Duke was giving him an ergency signal, he imdiately left the mansion and contacted Evelyn in case the worst scenario welcod him upon teleporting.
He was relieved that what he did was correct. Because the Duke was gravely injured and his knights were either killed or injured.
Chrisfold can't afford to put them to a more dangerous situation when the attackers are fifty assassins and fifteen elite mages.
So of the assassins are dead by the hands of the Duke and his Light Legion. However, the mages were a pain in the neck for them.
And because his powers are limited and the mana are borrowed from Evelyn, he can't afford to recklessly use it. Besides, Evelyn will know about it because her status will display her mana powers depleting at an outrageous speed.
But now that Evelyn is here, he strikes down so images that were in the back casting so spells and while he is at it, he made a do using his earth magic and protected the injured Duke and so knights.
