"AAA!!!" Daton scread in pain; his scream echoed everywhere, and the other three n also heard it.
However, they were no different from Daton, as they were injured so severely that they could not stand up, and their entire bodies were covered in burns.
Although they also had dicine to heal their wounds, they were not as rich as Daton, so the dicine they had was of poor quality.
Their outer skin had turned black, and even the slightest movent caused them so much pain that they wanted to cry.
That's why the three remaining n couldn't even take care of themselves, so there was no way they could save Daton or run away.
Daton cried like a child as he begged Claire: "Please, Claire, please forgive . I'm sorry… sorry… please… I… I swear… I… AAA!!!!"
Claire didn't listen to him; she stuck the knife deeper, then dug into his wound, causing Daton to feel so much pain that he was about to die.
"If I had apologised to you, would you have forgiven ?" Claire said angrily, her voice as cold as ice: "You and those bastards have been constantly causing trouble for and bothering ."
"If I had apologised to you today and begged you, would you have forgiven ?"
"I.. I…" Daton felt both pain and sha. If he had known that Lathel was so strong, even if he had nine lives, he would not have dared to cause trouble with Lathel.
But there is no dicine for regret in this world.
"Daton, if Lathel wasn't strong enough, I'm afraid that today he and I would both beco two cold bodies lying deep in the ground."
"You should ask yourself... Is there any reason why I think I should let you continue to live?"
Claire's eyes gradually lost their humanity; there was no more light and no more emotion in those eyes. There was only an extrely cold, dead grey colour.
"Do not! Don't… please… I… I swear… I won't bother you anymore! I…"
"AAA!!!"
Claire pulled out the knife, then stabbed his other shoulder: "Do you think I will believe you?"
"Even if you don't take revenge, you will find soone else to take revenge on us."
"However… hahaha… Thank you for giving such useful information."
"No one is watching here. Even if you die, no one will find out."
"If soone discovers your bodies, they will think… you were killed by monsters."
"No! Please!" Daton scread in fear: "Claire, you are evil! Damn whore!"
"My uncle is… Huk!"
"You're so noisy!" Claire stabbed the knife into Daton's throat as she spoke. Then she pulled out the knife, and blood gushed out from his throat like a stream.
"Hm… uk… ak…" Daton couldn't make a sound because his throat kept bleeding. He then tried to cover the hole in his neck with his hands.
However, it was all useless as blood continued to flow. Daton looked at Claire with hatred, as if he wanted to tear her into a hundred pieces.
A mont later, Daton fell to the ground, losing all his life. The other three n saw this and were also scared, and they continuously pleaded for Claire's rcy and kindness.
"Please, I… I… I want to live."
"I also want to live, please let go."
"I have money, I will give it all to you, please."
"Stop!"
"AAA!!"
"Claire! You are the devil! I curse you… AA!!!"
"AAA!!"
…
A mont later, Claire was done. The sll of burning grass mixed with the sll of blood created an extrely unpleasant scent mixture.
Four corpses lay on the ground, on their bodies, in addition to burns, there were also countless stab wounds.
Each knife strike did not hit vital locations, so the stabbed person could still survive and endure the torture for a short period of ti.
Claire breathed a sigh of relief. The dress she was wearing was also stained with blood. She reached up and used her sleeve to wipe the blood on her cheek while smiling contentedly.
"Lathel… I'm sorry, I had to kill them so they wouldn't cause you any more trouble."
"Wait! No, OK…"
"The dress is dirty, and my whole body is covered in blood. I can't let Lathel see like this."
She muttered, then ran into the woods.
…
In the royal palace, Catheryne looked at the scrolls on the table and glanced at the water mbrane displaying Claire's image, then frowned.
"This girl… sowhat resembles Amleth." Catheryne muttered.
"Empress … can you… Can you let rest a bit?" Suddenly, a voice rang out.
Catheryne looked towards the source of the voice. There was a girl sitting next to a small table; her table was also filled with scrolls.
The number of scrolls she needed to look through was even more than Catheryne's, and so had to be placed on the ground because there was no more space on the table.
Catheryne shook her head and said: "Go ahead, you need to get used to these jobs. In the future, you will replace for a long ti."
The girl was startled when she heard that: "Heh?! Queen, you... where are you going? I cannot do these things."
"Don't worry, I'm still here. However, I will step back and leave everything for you and others to manage." Catheryne smiled and said softly.
"Ah! But…" The girl wanted to say sothing more, but Catheryne interrupted.
"Don't worry, if you have any trouble, I will help you."
"Empress!!!" The girl shouted: "You saying that makes even more worried!" I don't want to beco the empress, huhuhu…"
Catheryne sighed; however, her eyes still looked up at the mbrane of water floating in mid-air.
The mbrane showed four fras of images, one is of Claire, another is of Alec, one is of Harris, and the last one shows an image of Lathel.
Naturally, Lathel's display fra remains the largest and clearest.
Catheryne rested her chin, stared at the water film in front of her, and muttered: "Lathel... when will I have ti to be by your side?"
"My Queen…" Suddenly, Akna appeared from the darkness in the corner of the room, walked to the middle of the room, and knelt down.
"AAA!!! Akna, you startled ." The girl scread extrely shrilly.
Akna just glanced at the girl, then bowed her head and said: "I have all the information about the girl nad Claire."
Catheryne didn't look at Akna at all. She just stared at Lathel's image on the water film and said: "Is she clean?"
"Yes." "She is completely clean," Akna replied. However, her past before she was taken in by Malina as a servant remains a mystery."
"However, I think her identity is not simple."
Catheryne frowned and said, "I also think so. She has a healing talent of rank B; a normal person cannot possess healing talent that high."
"I'm afraid the Church also suspectssothing, so it has begun to act."
"Yes." Akna nodded and replied: "The church has sent an invitation to Karol Magic Academy. Maybe in 2 to 4 days this letter will arrive at Karol."
"I don't know the specific content of that letter, however, perhaps other than inviting Claire to beco a priest of the church, I can't think of any other circumstances."
"The Church also has the right to observe this round of the competition." Catheryne frowned and said: "Healing Rank B, this girl will be very useful to the Royal Family, however... we need to investigate more thoroughly."
"Yes, I understand." Akna replied: "I have sent a few people to find out Claire's identity. Maybe we will have the answer soon."
Catheryne sighed: "Hopefully the church won't do stupid things. Is Lafien still silent?"
"Yes. Lafien seems shocked, she doesn't want to talk to anyone, she just wants to see Lathel." Akna replied.
"Stupid girl, it seems… The Church has made these girls pitiful, just like their killing tools." Catheryne shook her head and said.
"It's okay, just let her be detained for a while. If Lathel wants to save her, support him a little."
"Tell Laura… There's no need to make things difficult for Lafien."
Akna bowed her head and replied: "Yes, I understand."
"Good!" Catheryne waved her hand, Akna bowed her head, then retreated into the darkness in the corner of the room and disappeared.
The girl sitting and reviewing the official dispatch also breathed a sigh of relief when Akna left.
"Are you afraid of her?" Catheryne felt amused and asked.
"Heh?! Queen, that girl is scary." The girl imdiately replied, it looked like she had just encountered sothing extrely terrible: "Every ti she appears, the atmosphere becos extrely cold and gloomy."
"I even felt like if I just breathed a little hard, she would kill , cut off my head, and hang it on the city gate."
Catheryne: ( ￢ _ ￢ ;)
"It seems like you're thinking too much."
"No!!! I didn't think much." The girl shouted, her expression extrely frightened and worried: "Queen, you should be careful with that girl. I feel like she is not a good person."
"Besides… this is your private room, why can she co in and out naturally? She even entered the room without the Queen's permission."
"I fear that one day, she will… do terrible things to the Queen."
"Oy! You... you're worrying too much." Catheryne sighed, she felt that this girl was a bit cowardly.
No, it must be said that she is extrely cowardly and suffers from overthinking syndro.
This girl is Catheryne's student, her na is Fuxian.
Fuxian is very smart, she learns very quickly, and her ability to handle political and administrative issues is also very good.
However, she has a fatal weakness: she has extrely low self-
esteem, cowardice, and overthinking syndro.
Catheryne sighed, She chose Fuxian because, among all the geniuses, she was the most trustworthy and smartest.
"Fuxian, I don't know when you will be able to replace and run this empire."
"Heh?!" Fuxian was startled when she heard that. She quickly ran in front of Catheryne, knelt down, cried, and said: "Queen, don't die!"
Catheryne frowned: "What the hell are you talking about? Why will I die?"
"Heh?! But… you just said you wanted to train so I could replace you." Fuxian asked confusedly: "Only when you die can I replace you, right?"
Catheryne: "…"
"What the hell are these thoughts in your head? I'm not dying, I'm just retiring to enjoy the happy days with the person I love."
"So that's how it is…" Fuxian breathed a sigh of relief: "Wait! The person you love… the Queen… you… you… do you know how to love?"
Catherine: ( ￣ ヘ ￣ )
