"Don't move around, madam," Nicolai said coldly to Kashan in front of him: "I am very nervous and afraid that you will come up with some special alchemy ball - so I am prepared.

Open your throat at any time."

He tapped the back of the knife with his index finger.

The Scarlet Witch lowered her shoulders and fell silent.

Thales looked at Nikolai who suddenly appeared in surprise, and then looked at the other White Blade Guards.

"Nicholai?"

He looked at the Faller holding Scarlet Witch hostage in confusion: "Why would you..."

But Thales could not continue what he said - Tuleha's hand on his shoulder suddenly tightened, and Thales hissed in pain.

When Huaiya saw the prince's condition, he tightened his sword in anger.

Tuleha dragged the back of his knife around Thales' neck, forcing Thales to raise his head as high as possible.

Thales painfully observed the situation inside the venue: Tuleha and him were standing on the inner floor of the cell, with Little Slicker still behind them.

Everyone in Xingchen stood in front of them, nervously looking at the kidnapped prince.

And Nicolai was holding the Scarlet Witch and standing behind the people of the stars.

Behind Nicolai were the White-Blade Guards, who stood firmly against the thick door and stared at the soldiers outside the door vigilantly.

"Nice move, Fallen Star," the Fire Knight of the Black Sand Territory said calmly to Nicolai: "But don't forget, I hold a more important bargaining chip."

The Faller tilted his head and glanced at Tuleha with disdain.

"Then take action and kill this prince," Nicolai snorted lightly: "Anyway, I have disliked him for a long time."

Thales' eyes widened.

Wh-what?

Tuleha frowned.

"After you finish it," Nikolai waved the Soul-Destroying Blade on Cassian's neck slightly, reflecting the light of the immortal lamp, and he smiled slightly: "Maybe they can give you something different.

Nicknames, such as..."

The Meteorite's gaze swept across Thales, and he gently grinned at the Fire Knight:

"Meteor II?"

Tulha stared at Nikolai fiercely, almost with fire in his eyes.

"That's our prince," Cohen observed the stalemate, exchanged a worried look with Wyatt, and whispered, "Just looking at it?"

"Otherwise?" Miranda looked at Raphael next to Nicolai, at Tuleha and Thales behind, and then glanced at the confronting White Blade Guards and enemies, sighing slightly: "This is no longer the case.

Our fight is over.”

At this moment, the kidnapped Scarlet Witch spoke.

"The White Blade Guards, Exeter's Dragon Guards." She said softly.

"You are on the wrong side," Kashan didn't seem to have the slightest awareness of having a blade pressed against her carotid artery. She just smiled naturally and smoothly and said: "Your opponents are those behind you, those Imperial people.

"

Nicolai raised his eyebrows slightly.

The Scarlet Witch sighed softly, as if she was extremely regretful: "It was their secret department that planned all of this - such as disasters and the death of the king."

The faces of the stars, including Thales, also changed.

Okay...Kassan was right - Thales thought anxiously.

The second prince glanced worriedly at the white-blade guards present, but their expressions were all hidden behind their scarves, leaving only a pair of cold eyes exposed.

Raphael, who was standing next to Nicolai, sighed slightly: "Oh, this question - it's very complicated to talk about."

"But now..." He walked up to the two of them, looked at Nikolai seriously, and looked at the blade in his hand that was forcing Kashan: "Should we find a way to escape first?"

Nicolai suddenly turned to look at the young man from the secret department, his eyes cold.

Raphael accepted the dagger-like look and showed a fake smile: "You know, Walton's heir is also here."

"Maybe it's not a good time to chat - especially with the Scarlet Witch who has told so many lies."

Nicolai looked towards the innermost part of the cell.

The little slipper was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that it was him who was talking, and his face turned pale.

"If you really want to help, boy from the secret department," Nicolai's eyes radiated cold light and his words were serious: "Don't block my way."

Raphael sighed slightly.

"Otherwise," the Faller continued with sharp words: "Do you want to be trapped here? Maybe they will bury your ashes under the city gate."

Raphael was silent for a second. He looked at Tuleha and Thales behind him, then at Nicolai and the Scarlet Witch in front of him, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "I understand."

At this moment, Thales raised his eyebrows.

He saw Rolf making a hidden sign language gesture towards him.

【Back.】

Thales was slightly startled.

"For the sake of His Majesty the Late King, Lord Nicolai," the Scarlet Witch said slowly, "Don't do anything stupid."

Nicolai glanced around the entire audience, his eyes resting on Raphael and the Scarlet Witch for a second each.

"You don't have to tell us what to do, Ms. Kashan," the Fallen Star snorted coldly, with a fierce glint in his eyes: "The humiliation of the blade can only be washed away with blood."

In the hands of the White Blade Guards, the friction sound of palms and handles could be heard invariably.

Kashan's eyes were sharp and she shouted: "Then what are you doing now?"

There was a rare hint of cruelty in the words of the Scarlet Witch: "After the king's unfortunate death, Exeter experienced a rare disaster - you should stand on the side of the kingdom and the Northlanders!"

"Instead of colluding with our enemies and fighting like dogs!"

Cassian's words echoed in the cell.

Thales exhaled fearfully under Tuleha's knife.

Nicolai suddenly laughed.

His laugh was cold and ironic.

"Exeter's disaster? Our enemy?" The Fallen Star gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with coldness: "Don't pretend to be righteous, you hypocritical old woman."

"You betrayed him from the moment your people began to falsely spread the news about the so-called Sword of Disaster and began to draw His Majesty's attention for Lumba's actions!"

The Scarlet Witch narrowed her eyes.

"You and your eyes and ears, you joined forces with His Majesty's enemies, you acted deaf and dumb to the actions of the Black Sand Territory, until His Majesty died in a shameful assassination, until they stood here," Nikolai said coldly in Kashan

whispered in his ear: "Who do you think these brothers of the White Blade Guards escaped their lives at the hands of?"

tread!

The soldiers of the White Blade Guards all changed their steps and turned sideways to face the enemy. The sudden movements made the soldiers of the Black Sand Territory even more nervous.

Cassian sighed.

"About this, if you are willing," the Scarlet Witch looked at the blade in front of her neck and said calmly: "I swear in the name of the darkroom, I can explain."

Nicolai made a nasal sound of unknown meaning.

"Why don't you go and explain to His Majesty," Meteorite narrowed his eyes:

"Oh, I forgot - he was killed by you and Rumba."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the cell became even more tense.

"Don't be so narrow-minded, Lord Nicolai," the Scarlet Witch showed a sad expression, her eyes glanced at Tuleha and Thales: "The White Blade Guard has never been one person's private weapon, you should be loyal to the entire Aix.

Special, loyal to the North..."

Nicolai interrupted her.

"I am not a narrow-minded person."

Meteor's tone was cold: "If you and your darkroom, if you can't even be loyal to one person..."

"Don't falsely claim that you are loyal to Exeter."

Ms. Kashan frowned slightly: "You..."

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

I saw Nicolai's left hand pressing down on Kashan's back - pushing her out!

Tuleha's pupils suddenly tightened.

how……

Raphael, who was standing in the middle, suddenly raised his hands and pushed Miranda, Cohen, Wyatt and others away, just in time to avoid the path of the Scarlet Witch!
