CHAPTER 7
Previous story:
The bomb did not explode and even disappeared slowly. Everyone was confused and Marquis Zent thought that his magic tool was broken. But it was Ren. Ren arrived with his striking elf appearance and attracted everyone's attention. While on the other hand Prince Erick met a strange troop of soldiers with silver armor that was very striking. The group introduced themselves as the rest of the organization of the sacred temple. Prince Erick was shocked when he heard that.
***
Reinell looked at Prince Erick once more before he retreated. In fact he felt somewhat suspicious of the behavior of this young man. But since the other party was a prince from a faraway Kingdom, he did not dare to intrude any further.
Prince Erick was relieved when he saw his enemy retreat in a regular manner. It should be like that. But suddenly two people beside Reinell whispered something to him. Make Reinell suddenly turn around and not so go.
"What's wrong?" prince Erick tried to hide his nervousness.
"Your Majesty, I turned to warn you. One of your servants is a waiter at the Duke Well residence. My people recognize him. Maybe he was a spy. So be careful" he said, pointing at a servant.
The servant's body trembled in fear and he immediately knelt down. But he didn't say anything.
"Oh, fine" Prince Erick lowered his head and said in seriousness. "Thank you for the information, Mr. Reinell. I didn't think that there were spies infiltrating my territory. I'll take care of it after this" he said with a serious expression.
Reinell smiled. "Thank you again" He turned back towards his troops.
Erick's men did not dare to return to his tent until he confirmed that the men had successfully disappeared from his territory. After confirming that they were completely gone, he let out a sigh of relief. Then he looked at the servant who was appointed earlier with a pouting face.
"Because of you, I almost pooped in my pants" he said. "If you do have a popular face why not hide your face first before wandering around" he said scowling. Then he turned back to his tent.
The waiter looked down. No one knows his expression. But this servant was an old man who had served as the butler in the Duke's house for many years. It is natural that someone would recognize him. He was actually a little annoyed at the words of Prince Erick. But he held her back because he did not want to make the situation worse and the man was still a prince.
He only had one hope in his heart - that his master might return safely. He grew even more worried as he looked at that foreign enemy who looked quite strong.
***
He could see that a group of soldiers were fighting each other in front of the capital's gate, but Ren ignored them. Her ultimate goal is to help Eva save Diana, not to help the humans fight each other. After all Eva and Diana were precious people to him.
He crossed the capital and saw the city become very quiet. And feel the presence of many people somewhere in the middle of the city. So he's headed there.
After getting closer to the place - the hall where Diana would be publicly executed - Ren could see the existence of humans. Some people scattering and running out, which made Ren feel uncomfortable.
He's headed to the middle of the hall. But something's blocking him.
"Inhibit!" Ren touched the transparent barrier with his finger. The barrier felt supple like a soap bubble. And that barrier sucked his magic power!
He had seen a barrier like this about hundreds of years ago and had not expected that it would appear again in this place.
He slowly began to notice strange changes in the barrier that grew hotter and turned red.
Ren felt that the heat from this barrier was very familiar.
"The ancient fire magic" she muttered in shock after noticing her. Then he smiled.
Ren had mana fire in his body. Looking at this rare object, he felt very happy. Who would have thought that he would find such a good treasure like this in a small kingdom.
Ren also began to absorb the magic that came out of the barrier. He absorbed it easily. And slowly the red color of the barrier faded away. And the barrier suddenly shattered by itself.
Ren smiled. He was satisfied.
"It tastes good"
