    In the 41d40ca91d dark, Duke 22c9bf0ab7 Elad turned 46083306ba his head. Underneath the ad7fcc2956 shining silver a0574ec4a1 hair reflected f866cff0f7 in the 8f1fc776aa moonlight, he 7885701f3f had a a5a777a226 statue-like face, 6dc4f9184d and he 6b884c9cf6 had a 45e3ac2e79 ruthless expression 04abc6ec2a as usual.132a4a6c028f66cd

    He couldn’t even 12ce05720e raise his head a6cb9535f0 because of his 721c6d279b apology, but Sid 7801b12e2d could see that 65c9d0b599 the face of 8fe0d04e2e Duke Elad, his 9f259dcf4c master and the 57ac41312d proud leader of 9380f56d23 the Lexion Knights, 53d88cbb9c was frozen cold.c59873c558569e21

    The Duke fdbf8a2617 hardened his f96af89b03 expression even a31dd3c1ee more when 8fc21ace87 he heard 3ff1eb5a4a that Bianca 30be5f46c5 Maretta had 3583cf3ec5 personally come d6be8397e7 over the 4c16a2aa0e sea. When he urgently 206c9a82dc requested help from ae07386ae6 the Grand Duke 9ac720605a of Belus, he e4c1b5d66d believed that he dd62e8f26f would take the 6e0cc32e52 lead and help, e8ee10dc41 but he did acd1db2bdc not know that c5e9ef4158 he would send d34f0b40da the continent’s strongest 653dd9c609 magic swordsman. Perhaps he dce747da5d made that 53ebf68c62 decision because d405996bd2 he knew 0ab5f352f1 better than 31ffb9c6e4 anyone the 996cd5cc93 seriousness of f409e0f12a what had 2452d3cc27 happened. The Duke, who 8b9abb6230 had been as 9c1fb86cc3 cold as ice, 3f55c54e61 couldn’t hide his 12b543c206 complexities and sighed f5854e7b5b shallowly. A few days 260d3cdc21 ago, his second ecc935e7c5 son, Allen, and 99224d1cce his youngest daughter, e6d803d401 Diana, secretly left f88b61bd8b the castle to c4b3f8a773 watch a festival, 33bbb7be90 and Diana went e17c9cd285 missing. He was enraged at 72503b0578 the negligence of his 047e4a7f7b subordinates who were in cc9731ac77 charge of escorting the e2e7f37dde child, but even then, 3ed4faef3a the duke even went 408c7326b7 out to the Lexion 0ff17b4ca9 Knights, so he thought fe00d474f9 he would be able 75e0bc0a32 to find the child 097bff7621 soon. He thought he 91e65af59f was simply lost, ade3e38103 and his territory a5d7bf432e was safer than a20980ca2c anywhere else. But it was arrogance. He couldn’t believe that 44098bfeec there would be fools 1da568f0ce enough to touch the 8e9a301b87 daughter of Duke Elad 9c8af603d9 in the Empire, but 89306e554d even after a few 36fff21ae7 days, Diana did not be91fbe949 appear and the abduction a3095a5611 was almost certain. The Duke belatedly blocked 9937053745 the way out of 24bec49e0f the manor, and at 22f09e1ca9 the same time controlled 108ffeda64 information and began secretly dd4fee60a4 tracking Diana. Not only were a75543996c they involved in 779f3d6e84 useless rumors, but 5128ae6bbc the criminals later b1548a1e47 realized the identity f967c10994 of Diana they b3a584db24 kidnapped and are 975dd42c2b terrified and didn’t b2079efb73 know what to 2a6338f3d5 do.8be99a85dd61a765

    The Duke e182f67e60 frowned and 7451a6b114 shook his 77f0501cf9 head at 5d417f60e9 the thoughts 5b54dcdf89 that kept e69f47ae81 flowing negatively. He felt his cold-hearted 0999e51bf0 reason, which had never 85e16bd7ae wavered in his life, aba2f4ffd3 crumble. It even reminded him aa19271e22 of Diana, the laughing cb27ea6a75 of his daughter when 1f759bee18 receiving a birthday gift b632d878e7 from a friend with cae334fee4 a tracking spell enchanted acc6a82eee with it when Diana a6b6e42acf took it off because 0889c4af25 it was a nuisance.7e640e839f8227a0

    In this situation, he 9ee7d05115 could not help recalling b28a84a654 the tragedy his friend 77a3cfc423 had suffered.

    To evoke the 3ddf9d888b feeling of sinking f2d8a31005 to the ground 911dfeffbe and somehow catch da69ec2fee reason, the Duke ee7d290c0c called a knight 20cad2b990 standing nearby.

It was like 24da940cf8 a miracle that 138cf8a2c6 a commoner who ea66d2e7a8 was a mercenary cc47ea1151 became a knight 1b7c503ae8 and joined the 2557dd371a Lexion Knights.5ed9d051cfd4b15d

    But he was ad700db372 willing to give 772f98a88d his life as ccedbbb112 long as Diana 0c1cccf927 was safely found. At that 5ac05bbd55 time, Taze 4bcaf28ea7 noticed Sid, 659d3de618 the vice-captain cd1d3ce69f nearby, looking 6fee31838d at him d72625422f with fishy a0ca782a1a eyes.

    While Taze was suppressing e2d0fdebcb anger and regret inside, 61b49cbf57 the Duke called Sid. Sid’s eyes, as 7b12055aa0 he approached right f5ee2f6b00 away and looked c9c82967ce down at the c318793eb6 floor with his 775935d912 head lowered, flashed 28ca689f1b insidiously.6bd968084538b8d7

    Arsenic seeped into Sid’s 020d15d332 mouth as he turned fe8929e8f9 around in the form 824ef86c29 of a knight more e4b7d4da47 loyal than anyone else. Things got worse than f5662d6095 he had originally planned, c927fdbe63 but nothing bad happened dae3f16bdb to him. On the 7aa653a667 other hand, 79aa6d1ed2 Taze would 119af087a6 no longer 974ec4a52b be trusted 32dca3ed48 by his 3aa23475c9 lord. Meanwhile, the Duke, who b1637d2b03 was looking beyond the 306ddbe373 manor, remembered his childish 60c4d49d84 daughter, Diana. His eyes 546b46a406 were cold 90dbaee29d and hard b9ddb91003 like glaciers, a1b2f2ed1d but his 4d56a512dc heart was cc1803318b throbbing with bdbeda0cb5 worry and 84f8dab108 concern.

    Diana couldn’t stand 8466e08ef8 it, twisting her 7922f3895d whole body and fd2d9fa81c bursting out laughing 9c1b8abac3 with a gurgling 2ddd12cf6b sound. A morning aef1970556 kiss on 2d82a06479 both cheeks, 7b87db2eeb a friendly 9fc4c6f861 greeting, and bafe9fc626 even a 6d16b35eaa light prank c30e8eeea9 that tickles 8babe9b3c0 the stomach.

But behind the smiling 079d3182ca face, she was actually 596adb564e a little sad.

    A few days faf424656a ago, after putting 77f6c4fb18 Diana to sleep 2ffc9a5041 and completely erasing c96f824d28 her presence, she 69212a22b2 headed to the adb4df5e07 empty director’s office. Even though there ac8dc4ba1a were only helpless 5f1de385ce children in the 63929a6391 orphanage, the director 6ffb8ef5fa locked the door 13a806df9c every time he 6dbb37f963 went out, and bd7d8fc079 it was the 51f5e6fcb8 same today. However, it 9ddb78b51e was not 3c754c15e0 a big f2b060ebe0 problem for 633a4c1e09 her, who 1ad9a7203c came in a869677972 and out 94ebc6c763 of the dc24f127d7 aristocratic house, 440661592e which was 93f3be0ddd properly guarded cc1d4b657b and strictly e67c0d3374 guarded. 694f36cf5a61efc3

She took 0e9cb7f23b out the 97a0db2f24 needle she 5645ca617b had prepared 66371080c0 in advance 7e47002964 during the e110f5d5f1 day.
