Thales took a deep breath and stared at the Scarlet Witch opposite.
Even though Esida answered his questions about the magician, Thales still had many doubts about his own physical condition.
The primary suspect is still the mysterious mother, especially after hearing the incomprehensible words of the Queen of the Sky.
The second prince's chest rose and fell slightly: "Why did you mention this name?"
She is lying, Thales thought to himself.
Prince of the Stars' first middle name is a rare one - it's no secret.
Kashan's eyes narrowed into thin slits, releasing a gentle and friendly smile.
"At the dinner, you talked about a mother's pain of missing her son," Kashan opened her eyes slightly and looked at Thales with an interesting look: "Of course she wants to repay you..."
The Scarlet Witch's eyes moved, and she spoke with deep meaning: "...in the same way."
Thales clenched his fist slightly.
God.
What does she know? At least she knows that she is my biological mother...
"Your Highness Thales!"
Thales was slightly startled. He raised his head and looked at Raphael.
"Please remember, no matter what she does or says now," the latter slowly shook his head with a heavy expression on his face, "it is all for her own purpose."
"If you need to solve your doubts, the Secret Department is at your service at any time - we have enough information."
Thales turned his head and glanced at the worried Miranda, the solemn-looking Raphael, and the confused Cohen.
He frowned, took a deep breath, and nodded.
That's right.
At least not now.
Kashan sighed slightly.
"Sometimes I admire Morat's ability to teach students." The old woman turned her eyes and looked directly at Raphael. "Every one of his students is so outstanding."
"Whether it's those who are loyal to him or those who are enemies of him."
Raphael snorted coldly.
Miranda slowly walked to the left front of Scarlet Witch, while Cohen moved to the other side.
Faced with such an obvious action, Kashan seemed completely unaware.
This made Thales even more uneasy.
"Prince Thales," the Scarlet Witch's gaze became unusually sharp: "Do you remember my advice at the dinner: all the difficulties you have experienced are nothing compared to Morat."
"His loyalty is the deadliest poison," Kashan said solemnly: "The more loyal you are, the more dangerous you are."
"I'm sure you've realized this."
Thales closed his mouth and frowned.
"These words come from the mouth of the person who betrayed King Nunn," Raphael shook his head: "It's a bit too ironic."
Cassian smiled.
"The tragedy of the secret science is that your master only has the Brilliant Star." The Scarlet Witch shook her head indifferently: "The Brilliant Star that will rule the stars forever."
"But the monarchs of the Kingdom of Exeter are always changing."
"So the darkroom is only loyal to Exeter," Kashan paused slightly, and her smile turned cold: "When the king can no longer represent Exeter..."
"We will choose the path that is most beneficial to Exeter."
Thales's heart moved.
When the King can no longer represent Exeter.
Could it be that……
"Betrayal is betrayal," Cohen couldn't help but say, "especially while Nunn is still king."
His footsteps were getting closer and closer to Cassian.
"I don't want to get to this point either."
Kashan glanced at Miranda and Cohen who were getting closer and closer on both sides, shook her head and sighed: "But when we found out..."
"It's too late."
Thales frowned: "What do you mean?"
"It means..." Kashan raised her head with a rare solemn expression:
"Now!"
The Scarlet Witch's voice suddenly rose, and at the same time her figure retreated sharply!
Cohen and Miranda were stunned.
"Boom!"
Before anyone could react, a huge explosion came from above!
The shock made Thales tremble all over and his ears buzzed.
The ceiling was broken.
Countless stones poured down from their heads with bursts of dust!
Amidst the flying dust, Thales instinctively raised his hands to shield his eyes while coughing in the dust.
What's going on here?
But before he could react, he was pushed by Huaiya who reacted quickly and fell backwards.
Huaiya's single-edged sword was unsheathed, and the sword light struck the gravel above his head.
Several pieces of gravel were cut open and smashed into the surrounding open space and walls, bringing out even larger amounts of dust, which obscured the figures of Raphael and others.
Thales and Little Slippery both lost their balance and fell to the ground one meter behind.
"Leave her alone!" Raphael's urgent shout came faintly from the front: "Return to defense!"
Rolf waved his remaining left arm fiercely, creating a cyclone, trying to blow away the dust.
But a sturdy figure in military uniform descended from the sky.
Landed in front of Rolf.
In the blurred field of vision, Thales could vaguely see the figure calmly avoiding the hidden sword thrust out by Rolf, while Rolf's body flew sideways under the influence of supernatural powers.
But in just the next moment, that sturdy figure immediately exerted force and struck out with an elbow!
Rolf's figure gave a heavy pause.
"Boom!"
In the dust, the body of the wind ghost flew backwards and crashed into a cell.
"No!" Huaiya's roar came to his ears.
The power of termination surged into the squire's sword hand. He stood in front of Thales, rushed towards the figure in the dust, and struck out with a reckless sword in the endless stinging pain.
The sword wind blew across his face, and Thales had to close his eyes.
"Impulsive." came the rich male voice.
That sturdy figure did not retreat but advanced, charging towards Huaiya's sword edge!
Waiya's single-edged sword struck into the enemy's shoulder.
"Clang!" came the sound of a sword cutting through iron.
But the tall figure immediately threw out his right arm, pressed down on Huaiya's neck, and pushed hard!
"Boom!"
Huaiya's figure was thrown backward, and his head hit the cell wall firmly.
The attendant fell to the ground slumped.
Oops.
Thales gritted his teeth and stood up while coughing, pulling his little slippery head who was also at a loss.
As soon as he looked up, he saw the tall figure in the dust.
The enemy pulled out Wyatt's sword from his shoulder armor, threw it away, and walked towards Thales.
Thales didn't have time to panic, so he subconsciously stepped back.
"Qiang!"
Raphael emerged from the dust and struck the enemy in the back of the head with a very fast sword.
His arm trembled, a strange sound came from his muscles, and the sword edge blurred for a while, making a harsh whistle in the air.
The tall enemy suddenly turned around.
As he turned back, a thin-edged knife with a smooth arc was instantly unsheathed from his waist!
"Whoa!"
It was a light horse fighting sword that was rare in the Western Continent and exuded a golden color.
The moment the enemy drew his sword, Thales felt the air around him shake and become hotter than ever before!
The temperature rose instantly, as if someone suddenly set a fire in the air.
This reminded him of the bombardment of the magic gun.
The enemy turned around and struck Raphael with his sword.
"Zi!"
When the saber and the long sword collided together, the sound they made was not an ordinary metal collision, but a harsh hissing sound!
Raphael's sword broke instantly.
The broken blade hit the wall and bounced away.
"ah!"
As Raphael gritted his teeth and groaned in pain, his left hand holding the sword ignited flames, and he was forced to retreat backwards.
In the dust, the enemy swung his saber nonchalantly. The blade was clearly not on fire, but strangely drew a string of sparks in the air.
Thales watched in astonishment as the powerful enemy defeated three people in an instant, feeling terrified in his heart.
The figures of Miranda and Cohen appeared beside Raphael at the same time, and the sword blade roared out.
The former's sword swings unsteadily and seems to be able to change its moves at any time, while Cohen's sword attacks fiercely and is powerful and heavy.
The enemy didn't panic, lowered his left shoulder, and bullied Miranda just like he did with Wyatt and Rolf before.
There's something weird about that weapon - you can't sword fight him.
Seize the rhythm and force him.
Miranda's eyes moved, and the Pegasus movement started, and the tip of the sword was pointed at the enemy's crotch vitals.
But beyond her expectation, the enemy didn't dodge and ran straight into her sword!
Under Miranda's shocked eyes, her sword stabbed the enemy in the waist.
When the sword edge was about to penetrate deeply, the enemy's waist trembled, and the sword edge slipped out from his waist, bringing out a cloud of blood, but it avoided the vital point.
The next second, the enemy leaned forward and slammed into Miranda's right chest with his iron-like left shoulder!
As the female swordsman staggered backwards with a muffled grunt, the enemy gave her a hard blow to the hilt of the sword.
"Boom!"
Miranda fell to the ground amid severe pain in her chest and abdomen.
Cohen's sword wind struck from behind the enemy.
The enemy snorted coldly.
"clang!"
The sword edge hit the junction between the enemy's back armor and arm armor, and blood gushed out.
Before the sword edge penetrated deep into the body, the tall enemy quickly turned around and used the squeeze of the two pieces of armor to violently pull the sword edge to one side!
Then he swung the knife out.
But to the enemy's expectation, Cohen was not moved by his strange actions.
The moment he turned around, the security officer released his sword hilt.
With a fierce look on his face, Cohen rushed towards the enemy, lowering his body to avoid the opponent's vicious knife blow.
The security officer hugged his waist tightly, held down the forearm of the enemy's knife-wielding hand, and kicked off with both legs!
The enemy said "Oh" and seemed surprised.
"boom!"
Under Cohen's terrifying impact, the two big men fell to the ground together, bringing out another burst of dust.
"Clang!"
The enemy's saber fell under the sudden impact.
"ah--"
Cohen, who was pressing on the enemy, had a ferocious expression on his face and roared.
He struck with his elbow and hit the enemy squarely in the abdomen.
"Boom!"
The enemy groaned.
But Cohen was immediately grabbed by the shoulders by his enemy, who suddenly sat up.
The enemy gave a sudden and powerful headbutt, hitting the bridge of Cohen's nose!
"boom!"
The alert officer, who was staring at death, was about to strike with both arms to break away from the enemy's grasp. But the opponent reacted very quickly and pushed forward. When Cohen staggered to grasp the balance, he kicked out!
"Boom!"
Behind the two men who were fighting fiercely, Raphael shook his left shoulder several times.
Amidst a strange sizzling sound in his arm, the flames on his left hand went out strangely.
Raphael gritted his teeth and kicked up the sword on the body of one of the guards, holding the sword forward.
But Cohen's figure staggered from the front, and Raphael had no choice but to hold him up.
Miranda struggled to get up from the ground and joined them.
The next second, Raphael's footsteps stopped in place, motionless.
"What's wrong?" Cohen asked, holding his abdomen and gasping in pain.
Raphael didn't answer, but looked ugly.
The smoke and dust dispersed.
The tall figure had already picked up his golden saber again.
His blade was resting on a little boy's throat.
Behind them, the little slippery man was looking at the two of them tremblingly.
Miranda sighed.
On the other side, Wyatt helped Rolf, who was coughing violently, and looked at the situation on the court in disbelief.
"Back off," the enemy who came alone said coldly, "You have already lost."
Raphael and others all frowned.
"Um, hello."
Thales felt the chill in his throat, his scalp was numb and he smiled helplessly: "Lord Tuleha."
The tall enemy - one of the five armored generals of Exeter, Rom Tuleha, the "Fire Knight" of the Black Sand Territory, was holding the saber in his hand coldly and nodded in response:
