Hellbents
Chapter 180: Joining
After two days - which feels months - of not meeting, Ellijah cannot keep quiet without thinking about her fiance. The presence of King Dion did not help the stability of his emotions even though the man was a candidate-in-law. With such egocentric tyrannical behavior, who could stand it? But at least Ellijah hope his suffering for two days ago is fertilized with additional points that make it more shining in Eve's eyes.
But his fiancee was silent.
And Ellijah doesn't like Eve's silence.
The girl's beautiful face was blank with no expression, while her eyes were unfocused and looking far away, to a place that Ellijah could not see, sprouting the seeds of disturbing anxiety behind her head.
Looking at Princess Eve who had not put up her guard, many nobles saw this situation as their chance to approach the usually anti-social princess, unfortunately Ellijah's dangerous aura elicited aversion among them.
"Are you sick?" Although not answered, Ellijah still faithfully sat next to her fiance. Eve's presence alone had drained the inner fatigue that she was enduring.
Only when the noisy crowd was a bit away did Ellijah realize that they were deliberately left together. There was only him and Eve in this narrow lane. Thank you to Queen Isabel.
Queen Isabel was clearly wiser in dealing with the crowd. After joining, he immediately divided their group into a hunting team and a domestic team. The defense team as implied in its name had the task of defending them from monster attacks. That's why Ellijah now has time to breathe and be free from the noble people who continue to depend on him.
Duke Frost was indeed the most powerful, but one person alone would not be enough to support their group. A true leader should know that.
Let the two make Eve's silence even more obvious.
"Are you sick?" asked Ellijah again, her intonation rising out of worry. Their steps followed the signs made conspicuous by their former crowd.
Other than the dress being cut short on purpose, she did not see any scars or scratches. Eve's appearance was still clean and beautiful even though two days were certain they could not bathe, maybe it was also thanks to Queen Isabel's magic to see the monster tamer and the dragon boy were also in the same state.
"Do you have no twin, Elli?" Suddenly Eve made a sound, far from the topic Ellijah thought.
The twins? Why was the princess suddenly curious about the issue?
"You know I'm an only child, Eve."
Ellijah is the only heir to the Frost Dukedom. There are no records of illegitimate children or outcast children.
Lexa does not exist in this dimension.
Ava is reminded again that she is just an alien here, an existence that should not exist.
As if fate had sprinkled salt on her wound, the girl's fingertips began to spasm. His nails had already turned into glitching blue holograms.
It's not time for the purple moon to appear. So right, the glitching interval is getting shorter. And only this time Ava experienced it when inside the gate.
Ding!
Error system!
There was a bug detected!
It seems that it is not only Ava who gets the notification.
"Eror system?" Ellijah muttered under her breath.
Ava's body is getting limp, losing energy. He fell to his knees.
"Geev!"
Due to the presence of bugs, an automatic reset is performed!
Unfortunately, Ava's attention was obscured by pain that seemed to eat away at her soul. As usual, the girl fainted.
