Chapter 898 Is the plot unfolding sooner?
Even if some of the guards were transferred away, the Royal Palace... Well, the guards of the Royal Castle can still be considered stricter than other places.↖
In fact, now the strongest army of Luzanting, the Royal Knights, has already gone to the castle to help garrison.
After all, there was an unknown incident in the parish of the necessary evil church today. This incident was enough to touch the nervous nerves of the royal family. In addition, the assassinations of the King's Parliament have been on the rise and fall, and almost all the members of the King's Parliament have become in panic. If there is a little disturbance, I want to dig a hole and bury myself...
However, although the Royal Knights have conducted confrontation training in fighting magicians, they have no experience in confronting witches.
Under her control, several of Sanalia's demons easily bypassed the garrisoned royal knights outside the door and sneaked into the castle.
But soon she encountered a new problem.
“…Where is the king?”
As a witch, Sanariya never thought that one day she would try to sneak into the castle of a certain kingdom.
It’s not that it can’t be done. If it is a general small principality, even if it doesn’t replace the natal demon with Cerberos, Sanelia can sneak in through her own strength.
But this kind of thing can be said to be meaningless. If you succeed, you will most likely treat the king as a puppet, and it will be exposed immediately. After all, as long as you are a regular country, there will be a priest; if it is exposed or failed, it will immediately lead to encirclement from the Pure White Church and the King's Council, and the search will definitely be quite strong. At that time, the Mage Association will probably not mind selling them a favor...
You know, the crime of trying to sneak into the imperial city is much more serious for those noble men than murdering several or even hundreds of civilians. Even Sanariya does not want to fight against the Pure White Church and the King's Council.
In short, because she never intended to sneak into the royal territory, Sanariya had never done any homework such as the terrain of the other party's home, so she naturally didn't know where to go now...
Just as she was hesitating whether to risk exposure, she tried to attack a guard and pulled out the king's current location from the other party, a petite figure appeared sneakily in Sanariya's vision.
"Isn't that daughter of the current king? I remember that it seems that he is calling Leya..."
Sanaria tried to recall some of the information she had obtained before. But she found that she could not recall it clearly, so she couldn't help but curse her when she got old, her memory would become worse.
But even so, she was able to confirm that the little one was indeed the daughter of the current king.
If that's the case, then you might be able to find the current king with this little guy.
After making such a judgment, Sanaria quietly followed the little girl.
Interestingly, this little guy doesn't seem to like the Royal Knights very much. When he is walking around the palace, he will immediately hide carefully once he sees the Royal Knights.
But as a nine-year-old girl, her hiding skills are really bad. Not to mention the first-class Royal Knight after training and perception, even ordinary guards can easily find His Royal Highness hiding in the corner.
However, the servants and royal knights in the castle seemed to have become accustomed to the girl's behavior and did not take it seriously at all. Instead, they acted like "we did not find you at all" and did not expose the little girl's behavior.
Although that look is really artificial, it is still very effective to deceive little girls.
Thanks to the little girl's behavior, even Sanariya, who was hiding next to the girl, was ignored by the guards. She successfully got away with it...
The girl came all the way to the center of the castle, but ended up meeting the first person to expose her.
"Your Highness, you are doing this again..."
The visitor was a woman in her maid's clothing, about 20 years old: "I've said it many times, right? Uncle Royal Knight is the one who protects us, not a bad person, you don't have to hide from them like this."
"No! I saw it. The uncle with long white hair is a bad guy!" The girl first argued loudly, then probably felt that her voice was too loud, so she covered her mouth, and then continued in a low voice: "I want to tell my dad!"
It seems that the little girl has a considerable prejudice against the Royal Knights.
As for the white and long-haired uncle... Sanaria searched for a while in her memory that was no longer useful, and then she found a right person with the upper hand.
The other party was the leader of the Royal Knights. But he had almost forgotten his name, and it seemed that he was called Saen or Sean...
But this has nothing to do with Sanariya, the only thing that makes her happy is the girl's last sentence.
This means she is about to go to find the king.
"No, His Majesty the King is talking to Captain Sean's important matter!"
The maid vetoed the girl's decision.
But the girl didn't listen to her and ran to the rear, no matter how the maid shouted, she didn't listen.
Sanaria hurriedly operated the devil and followed quietly.
Soon, they came to a gate.
The little girl pushed the door hard, but Sanariya, who shared her senses with the demon, subconsciously felt something was wrong.
"This rust-like smell...is the smell of blood?!"
At this time, the girl had already pushed open the door, but the scene in front of her stunned.
The leader of the Royal Knights was chopping off the head of the dead king with his long sword.
He turned around and looked at the little girl who fell to the ground in a daze. A sick smile appeared on his blood-stained face: "Isn't this our princess? I'm so sorry you're still a little slower... If you hadn't seen me molting, I might have continued to lie dormant for a while."
As he spoke, his skin cracked and his body suddenly swelled, revealing his true body.
It was a creature that looked like a blue peeled brown bear.
Bionic monsters, undefined monsters, have uncertain levels of attack, and can perfectly imitate any creature from the appearance. Their strength depends on the age of the bionic monster. The older the bionic monster, the stronger it is.
One step slowed down! Sanaria felt a little regretful. After the bionic demon showed her true face, she began to be in trouble again... Should she save that little girl?
If it was Edward Alphonse here...
After thinking for a moment, Sanariya made a decision.
"Well, in order to retain the certificate, I'll save it." (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
