The Queen Of The Demon World
62. Capitals

“I've heard about it, but I'm not sure because I never saw the holy girls except Lady Earlene.”

Ethelyne nodded in confirming. “But I know, only Lady Maria can use the holy sword. But, this time. Not just him.”

“You mean?”

Ethelyne looked towards the Iceworld kingdom seriously. “Holy sword, Viaargian.”

A holy sword instantly appeared beside Ethelyne, even. The four men closed their eyes due to the dazzling light that the holy sword brought forth.

“Your Highness, this ..”

“This is a holy sword.” Ethelyne picked up the sword floating in midair, she stared at the sword in her hand. ‘When else can I use it? Could this be the first and last time I use it, even more so. Using it to hold humans hostage? Huh, that's funny. But this is the only way.’ Ethelyne disappeared the sword in his hand. “You bring all the troops to retreat, the rest. Let me take care of it.”

“Good, Your Majesty!” The four men immediately knelt down with one foot as a pedestal, all four of them disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Ethelyne casually walked towards the Iceworld kingdom. ‘The middle of Iceworld's work is in Rivari city, if I go there. Then my magic power might be able to reach the entire area of the kingdom, the problem .. is my power enough to move all humans? Moreover, I also need energy to separate between humans and animals, as well as houses or palaces.

“I can help you.”

Ethelyne fell silent after hearing a voice very similar to his. “Ethel.”

“You still remember me yes, I can help you move them all with my dark magic. But of course it's not free, if I help you. You must give me that magic stone.”

“Magic stone? Wh-what for?? Didn't you recover your magic power because of my help!”

“Everything is in your hands, I only offer help. If you don't want to, then I won't force it. I will only tell you one thing, your sacred power .. can only teleport everything, cannot separate buildings and also animals. And if you move everything, then you will die because your magic energy will be instantly drained to dry. How is it, our daughter's fate after you're dead? Will he be sad when he finds out his beloved mother died a miserable death?”

Ethelyne gritted her teeth. “Are you threatening me?”

“Threatening? Hahaha, it doesn't seem like a suitable word. I'm just telling you, I didn't mean to threaten you. Anyway, in the end. This body will still be mine if I want to help you. Then you can still live until the day the plague ends, but if you don't. Then perhaps I will make those foolish humans a delicacy for my hungry demons.”

Ethelyne's hands were tightly clenched. “Alright, I will give you the magic stone in return. Give me your strength.”

“Hehehe, of course. I'll be happy to help.”

Ethelyne fell to the ground, and his blue eyes turned to gold. The pain made him feel like he wanted to scream, his heart beating so fast that it felt like it was going to explode. Ethelyne with all her might got up and looked towards the kingdom before her. ‘Hold, Ethelyne! This isn't the first time for you, you can definitely hold on as you normally would!’ With slow steps, he walked towards the Iceworld kingdom.

Step by step felt very heavy, let alone the pain that seemed to be getting more and more painful. His neck seemed to be squeezed firmly until he felt tight, however. Even so, Ethelyne still tried to maintain the rest of his consciousness.

“Hng, I don't need, your mercy!” Ethelyne's voice sounded very slow and raucous.

“Hahaha, you even have trouble talking. Poor little girl, you can't even adjust to my meager strength. How would it be if I transferred all my magic energy to you? What will happen next, huh? I'm sure! This body will explode! All the blood will be splashed right, you will die slowly with pain that you never imagined. Hehehe, just imagining it makes me so happy. Ethelyne, Ethelyne. I thought you were so stupid, you purposely helped me gather my energy so easily. If you destroy my soul when you are weak, you might be the only soul that controls this body. But no, you just made Mili scared and absorbed the spirit's despair and fear and made me recover quickly.”

Ethelyne smiled faintly. “Didn't you call yourself? Ethelyne is you, and I. The two of us, are Ethelyne with very different personalities.”

“Cih, you really can't be expected!”

“That's why, I like you.” After walking for about two and a half hours, finally. Ethelyne reached the middle of the capital. He stared at the very crowded neighborhood.

“Hah? What do you mean by that??”

‘Didn't I say it? I like you, even though you are a demon soul who will get rid of me one day. But I still like you, that stubborn and cool attitude of yours makes me really very envious.’

“Don't think I'll change my mind just because you praise me! I will still destroy your soul no matter what!”

‘I'm not directing anything.’ Ethelyne loosened her fist, the pain making her body feel numb. Both of his hands were raised to the sky.

Suddenly, the sky turned cloudy. Lightning struck everywhere, the people who were all over the Iceworld kingdom looked up towards the sky.

“What happened? Why is it suddenly cloudy?”

“This suddenly cold weather ... like the moment of the anger of the Dragon Lord, what suddenly happened? Is the Dragon Lord angry at this time?”

“It seems not, Lord Dragon has long disappeared. It is possible, the last holy girl who is in anger and makes the sky instantly cloudy.”

“But, isn't Lady Glory in good shape today? Why is he suddenly angry?”

“Didn't you hear? Miss Glory is not a real holy girl.”

“What?”

“Iya, I heard. When Her Majesty Eadric, Mr. Ned, and Miss Glory return from the underworld, they discuss that Miss Glory is not the real holy girl

“So that means, all this time. We were tricked by Miss Glory?!”
