The process of generating the magic weapon was very fast. Amy Xiu's fallen body became withered as if the blood had been directly drained by the broken sword, and the magic marks on his body also turned into cracks, which looked extremely terrifying.
The remaining Chai Anping and Ellerbella suddenly fell into silence. Without Amy Xiu's death threat, their identities became a bit embarrassing...
Ellerbella's face was pale, and her expression was somewhat helpless and calm:
"It can be pulled out."
Upon hearing this, Chai Anping did not immediately step forward to put away the completely deformed broken sword, but took a deep breath to suppress the still agitated blood.
Ellerbella's escape route is very remote, so there is no need to worry about anyone coming for the time being. After all, the fierce fight with Amy Xiu failed to attract the palace guards.
Now most people were attracted by the two central battlefields at night. The prince and Galen had not disclosed any information to the palace guard chief during their previous operations. Even Xin Zhao only knew that they had dispatched soldiers to enter the palace without knowing the purpose.
"Why don't you run away? With your ability, it should be easy to get out of the palace." Chai Anping said coldly with his back to her.
"I..." Ellerbella smiled bitterly: "My magic power has been contaminated by Amy Xiu, and I will no longer be able to use it in the short term."
"What's more, my ability won't work on you either."
Ellerbella stepped forward and pulled out the broken sword from Amy Xiu's chest to show that she was not deceiving just now.
"I have something to tell you." Ellerbella handed the sword to Chai Anping.
"Well."
He didn't expect that he would get such a reply, and Chai Anping was startled.
Originally, when he came here, he didn't even think that he would have a chance to save her, but as soon as he came, he saw that Ellerbella was about to be killed by Amy Xiu. If he didn't take action... it would be unreasonable.
But thinking of Ellerbella's parting kiss, he nodded slightly: "Change a place."
He was much more familiar with the outer court than Ellerbella, and he soon took her to a more remote place.
"I didn't expect that Gracie you would also become a mage and successfully sneak into the court of Demacia. If we knew that you were our companion, we would definitely not use you to achieve our goals..."
"Don't confuse me with you murderers!"
Chai Anping's originally softened expression immediately turned gloomy after hearing this: "They are just a group of criminals who have no regard for human life. There is no need to label yourself. If you want to say these things, then the conversation can end now."
"I'm sorry!" When mentioning this matter, Ellerbella became even more panicked: "You are right, there is no difference between us and... magic seekers."
"Magic seeker?"
"Now... Gracie, do you still remember what happened when you were a child?" Ellerbella sat down next to the palace wall.
"...I don't remember much."
"Ha...that's true. We were both very young at that time, so it's normal not to remember. In fact, I also forgot what you looked like when you were a child.
I awakened my magic power when I was a child. At that time, I couldn't control my inner magic, which caused a lot of trouble to my family and friends. The magic seekers soon came to my door.
My parents wanted to hand me over to the demon hunters, but I was afraid and used magic to escape. How old was I at that time... 8 years old?"
Ellerbella lowered her head and shared her childhood with Chai Anping. There was a kind of heart-stopping sadness in her plain tone.
"I escaped from the pursuit of many waves of demons, and finally fell into many traps set by them. My inner magic could not save me. It was obvious that I had done nothing wrong. I begged them for mercy, but they did not
You just want to kill me and say that my possession of magic is the original sin. Why?
You haven't been exposed yet... but once your identity as a mage is known to the magic seekers... everything about you will be destroyed!"
"It was Lord Silas who saved me that time." Ellerbella suddenly said something shocking.
"What!?" Chai Anping was really surprised this time.
"In fact, most of the old people in our organization were rescued by Lord Silas, but most of the new members who joined later have nothing to do with Lord Silas.
Saving Lord Silas is the purpose of our organization. This time we ventured into the capital because we heard the news that Lord Silas was imprisoned in the palace."
"Palace? How could such a dangerous person as Silas be locked up in the palace?" Chai Anping sneered: "He is locked up in the Demon Searcher's Prison."
After a moment's thought, he realized the truth - it seemed that the spies in the demon-seeking army were not as pure as they seemed. What was the purpose of letting such a group of dangerous mages attack the palace?
"Impossible...this is the news conveyed by the president's 'big shot' who only knows the president." Ellerbella raised her head in horror after hearing this.
"Hey, it seems you are just knives used by others at will."
"How is it possible... this is impossible..." Ellerbella's dull eyes suddenly shed two lines of tears: "What on earth did Mr. Church and the others... sacrifice themselves for?"
Seeing her crying miserably, Chai Anping stopped adding fuel to the fire and said something "that she deserved", otherwise he would have wanted to mention the people who died in the bloody incident on the commercial street.
"I'm a little curious about the big shot you mentioned." Chai Anping said.
"Only the president knows his identity. We only know that he is a high-ranking person lurking in the Demon Seeker Legion."
"At this point, we have all failed anyway, and I have finished what I wanted to tell you, Gracie..."
"Um?"
"Kill me." Ellerbella wiped her face and said in a panic.
"Kill me and end this matter completely. It will be my repayment to you."
"I have been using you from the beginning to the end. You have enough reasons and qualifications to kill me, and if you kill me... no one will doubt that you are a mage, Gracie Shelley."
"..."
Chai Anping tightly tightened the half of the magic weapon left in the scabbard. The more free and easy Ellerbella became, the harder it was for him to be ruthless enough to argue with her about gains and losses.
Can a new young man in the 21st century accept the apology of a lost girl who is willing to die?
The cruelest way to deal with betrayers in Chai Anping's memory was to die without contact. He couldn't understand Ellerbella and the others' belief in sacrificing so many lives for just one Silas, and he couldn't help it.
Accept their behavior of treating human life as nothing.
From the perspective of a normal Demacian, Ellerbella's behavior would undoubtedly lead to death.
"Can't you do it? Haha..." Ellerbella hissed with tears in her eyes: "What if I tell you that I was there in the commercial street that night, and I killed someone?"
Chai Anping was startled when he heard this: "Are you regretting it?"
Thinking again about Ellerbella's crying behavior after she came back, Chai Anping suddenly understood why she was so out of control - killing may not have been her original intention!
"Crack."
Chai Anping pulled out the broken sword and threw it to the ground:
"In that case, just surrender yourself and let the law judge your crime."
