Chapter 28: Breakthrough

Nobles are nobles, and Duke Victor was not harmed. The traitors even asked a priest to help him handle the cutlery and cause wounds. These were all the results of the devil girl dragging the priest into a corner and questioning him. The priest's name was Derek

, who has served the emperor's family for a long time, Helena can only assume that he is still loyal and use it for herself in an emergency situation.

If she didn't rescue her father, the prince, and her freak student before the changing of the guard, everything would be over. Helena arranged for Ivy to help Derek. She didn't care whether the priest understood it or not, and just told them to rescue the prince quickly.

. She herself had to rush to the place where her father was being held. The pastor said that there were only two guards there.

They're just two stupid men, I can handle them.

When Helena was about to leave, Ivy pulled her back. The devil girl asked her a question that surprised her: "Don't forget Leon."

He is obviously a devil but cares about a little boy? Looking at the girl's serious face and feeling the strength of her hands, the mage's trust in Ivy deepened.

"Of course not." She assured, and then Ivy asked the pastor to lead the way. The latter was still confused and couldn't understand why Helena would place her hopes on this ordinary girl.

A priest and a demon walking into a tavern is a bad joke told by too many bards.

Without the demon girl by her side, Helena became much less courageous. She had been a teacher for too long, and the little practical experience she had accumulated was almost wasted. In order not to be suspected, at least not to be seen through immediately, she did not dare to summon

Stone Skin Technique body care.

She stood at the top of the stairs for a while, exhaling repeatedly until her breathing rate returned to normal. The footsteps below were clearly audible, and every one of them was her enemy. The mage bravely walked down the stairs towards the room where her father was detained.

Not that no one was watching the guards she met on the road. She had already exchanged the skirts she was wearing with Ivy in advance. Now her ordinary girl's outfit should help her get through.

It is true that no one stopped her, but this did not include the careless behavior when passing by. In comparison, frivolous language was regarded as a gentleman. It is normal for the people of the principality to consider themselves victors, and to take what they want from the conquered.

Helena had never been touched by anyone of the opposite sex other than family members in her life (she automatically ignored the fact that Leon touched her). Now it was all over. Someone even made a comment after teasing her, "Not bad."

.

She endured it, but she didn't have the ability of the devil girl to break her neck with her bare hands. The disguised noble lady silently endured the humiliation, holding the basin of water in her hands that echoed the story, and walked all the way to the room described by Pastor Derek.

The interiors of the old-style castle lacked special features, so she found the right place by relying on the priest's description of the guard at the door. One had a big beard, and the other had a scar face. Well, Helena raised her eyes, looked at them all, and identified the number.

When doing this, the eldest lady ignored a question. How could a servant with a humble status have the courage to stare at the soldier? Fortunately, she was a woman. The soldier turned a blind eye to her weird behavior and concentrated on screwing her butt, making her face red with anger.

.

In a hurry, Helena kicked the door, attracting the attention of the people inside, and was let go. Since the maid was not allowed to close the door when she went in to serve the big shot, she planned to communicate with her eyes. Pastor Derek said that the doors were closed separately.

Her father, Captain William, and two Custodes knights, Carlos and Andre.

The people from the imperial army didn't recognize her. One of them glanced sideways at her, and when he saw that what was served was not wine but water, his face was longer than a horse's. The other one didn't even bother to raise his head.

The little maid is not worthy of adult attention. William is sitting next to his father, the Duke is hunched over, both of them have their backs to her.

Helena gritted her teeth and continued forward, praying that the other party would not be too surprised and attract the attention of the guards. Although there were only two at the door, a whole group of soldiers were sitting in the room next to them, playing cards for fun.

As expected, her father was wearing a pair of mithril shackles. Just being close to her made her feel sick. Sitting on a chair, the Duke's head was so low that he was almost buried between his legs. Not to mention his precious daughter, he didn't even know what was going on around him.

Captain William was smarter than she thought. When he saw her, he nodded slightly to show that he knew what was going on.

And Helena had already thought about what to do next.

"Sir, what's wrong with you?!" She dropped the tub in an exaggerated manner and let the water inside pour out, shouting like an ignorant country girl.

She is pretending, but there is no need to pretend. Her father's condition is very bad, and it is natural for her daughter to feel heartbroken.

The bearded man who was one of the guards at the door sighed, winked at his companions, and shuffled in. The prisoners were all of high status, and if something went wrong, the big-headed soldiers would have to carry them around.

Helena looked at Captain William again and made a "beat him" gesture, and hoped that the captain would do it without hesitation. She had seen the executioner's strength before, and could survive the mouth of the hawk-headed monster, and defeat a half-hearted man with his bare hands.

The guard could definitely do it. Since the guard had entered the room, William's response to her was to blink.

William waited until the guard came over and bent down to ask the Duke before he took action. He strangled his neck and made him unable to make a sound. He could only beat him randomly with his hands. Scarface, who was left at the door, saw that his companion was in trouble.

, he ran inside without thinking, but did not go to the next room, which was only a short distance away, to call for reinforcements.

Helena was just waiting for him to do this. People in the Principality are said to be very loyal, and it is indeed true.

"Astera Shakshimila Krinavi..." He said all the mantras in one breath, holding the fine sand and throwing it forward. It doesn't matter if it doesn't go far. The material is just a medium. Once it is activated, anyone within the effective range will be hit.

Lie down - as long as you are not hurt, you can sleep until noon tomorrow.

The Imperial Guard knights who had been watching finally joined in. As knights who fought with mages on a daily basis, they reacted in time to what Helena had done, and ran forward to catch the fallen soldier without making much movement. They were like footsteps.

How can these small details compare to the excitement of a group of people playing cards?

The executioner put down the guard who was either strangled or unconscious, and helped the Duke up. It was only then that the Archmage of the Mage Tower barely recognized his daughter. He was speechless and could only make expressions. His daughter felt sad.

She shed tears, but the men did not allow her to enjoy this sad family affection.

William asked Carlos and Andrew to take over taking care of the Duke, and he picked up the guard's sword. The freed prisoner tiptoed out. Helena wrote down the location of every guard she saw when she came. She hypnotized one of them, and the rest

They all relied on the executioner to wipe their necks.

William's previous career gave him impeccable killing skills. His victims could neither make a sound nor resist. He easily captured the capital, and the traitors of the duchy became careless. The city was filled with money and money.

The woman waited to get it, and the drudgery of standing guard was left to the idiot who had just joined the army.

Few of the people killed by William had time to grow beards.

On the way to the emperor's room, they met His Royal Highness the Prince and His Highness's savior, the demon girl Ivy and the priest Derek. Ivy was covered in blood, and Helena was too lazy to ask her how many people she killed to save the prince. Edward then

The wide eyes and the priest who was holding the holy icon spoke volumes. She just hoped that Ivy would not be stupid enough to reveal her true face in front of a shepherd of Terra.

After all, for demons, killing is a game, isn't it? Led by the royal private priest, a group of people walked to the chapel next to the castle, where Helena's good apprentice, the half-elf Zhao Wen, was imprisoned.
