Magic Chronicles : Fallen Race

Mrs. Lisa wrapped her coat tighter around herself.

For some reason, she suddenly felt a chill, the first since she had begun practicing demonic arts.

"Madam, what's the matter?"

Beside the lady, who stood nearly two meters tall with an exaggeratedly voluptuous figure, was another individual who appeared much more ordinary, with a muscular build and handsome, blond features.

The "Goat Head " emblem on the man's arm clearly indicated his status. In this world, there was only one force that used the "black goat" as its flag.

The Empire, Nox.

"It's nothing, Lord Envoy. Please, rest assured, the Five Flowers Alliance has prepared for this plan for a long time. It will not fail. The eldest Princess will soon be driven to our side, just as planned."

"When the time comes, Lord Envoy, you will be able to thoroughly enjoy your 'dinner'."

Previously, as the main character who should have been in the grand hall, the noble and royal families eagerly awaited the Imperial Envoy. Now, he was with Mrs. Lisa at a checkpoint outside the royal palace.

As the "hidden hands," they naturally needed to stay "behind the scenes."

Especially the Lord Envoy, who had a penchant for playing with his prey, hoping to enjoy the thrill of a cat chasing a mouse. That's why the two of them were here.

According to the plan, once the bloody movement started in the grand hall, with the eldest Princess's capabilities, she should be able to escape with some knights and adventurers.

In this way, the followers of the Five Flowers Alliance would chase the Princess, making the proud Princess Yuffie show her desperation. Just when the Princess was about to reach the exit and seemed likely to succeed, they would then slowly make their entrance, giving Yuffie the final blow of despair.

This was the script Mrs. Lisa had arranged for the Imperial Envoy.

From the look of eager anticipation on Kasm's face, it was clear that they had successfully won the Envoy's favor.

However,

Mrs. Lisa glanced quietly at her watch. It had been over ten minutes past the scheduled time. By now, the eldest Princess should have arrived. But now,

Moreover, the commotion from the grand hall seemed to have quieted down too quickly. Why were the sounds of chaos not carrying over as they did before?'

The sudden return to silence in the quiet night made Mrs. Lisa's heart vaguely filled with a bad premonition.

But fortunately,

As a series of hurried footsteps approached, several flickering figures could be seen in the nearby darkness. As the distance drew closer, under the moonlight, Mrs. Lisa let out a sigh of relief.

The person leading them was Sea Tiger, the leader of the Eagle Mercenary Group and the grand princess's biggest trump card in this operation.

The appearance of the Eagle Mercenaries meant that the plan was still successful. Next should be the eldest princess, Yuffie, right?'

Mrs. Lisa had just let out a sigh of relief, but then she furrowed her brow.

First, why were there no signs of battle on these Eagle Mercenaries? They looked completely different from the desperate state she had imagined, and most of them seemed unscathed?

And most importantly, where was the eldest princess? Where was Yuffie?

They had been waiting here for so long to see the eldest princess's disgrace, but now the Eagle Mercenaries were here, and Yuffie was nowhere to be seen.

What was going on?

The envoy next to her also noticed and began to frown. Mrs. Lisa quickly took action, leaping high into the air with her tall figure and blocking the path of the Eagle Mercenaries.

Bang!

Mrs. Lisa's towering figure, like a mutant, was terrifying in the dark night. When she suddenly landed from above, the already highly focused Eagle Mercenaries were startled.

However, in Mrs. Lisa's imagination, these adventurers should have been terrified, fearful, and afraid of her, the "black hand" behind the scenes.

But...

Sea Tiger and the other Eagle Mercenaries did indeed react this way at first, but when they regained their senses and saw that it was Mrs. Lisa, the leader of the Five Flowers Alliance, Mrs. Lisa suspected that her eyes were playing tricks on her.

Because she seemed to see a look of relief on these adventurers' faces, as if they were saying, "Thank goodness, thank goodness."

Thank goodness for what?

Thank goodness it was me?

What else could it be? Who else could they be afraid of? What could be more terrifying than her in tonight's bloody turmoil? Mrs. Lisa didn't understand.

And she was getting a little angry.

After all, the envoy was still watching behind her. The disappearance of the eldest princess was already enough to make her anxious, and now these adventurers were "underestimating" her, which made Mrs. Lisa even angrier.

"Where is Princess Yuffie? Answer me, and you might still have a chance to live."

"We don't know. From the moment the chaos started in the grand hall, Princess Yuffie got separated from us. After that, we didn't know anything. Mrs. Lisa, with the time you're spending stopping us, I advise you... it would be better to worry more about yourself."

Sea Tiger could tell at a glance that Mrs. Lisa was probably still in the dark, thinking the plan was perfect, which is why he deliberately did not mention Reji and the demon race.

Not only because he had promised Reji to keep it a secret, but Sea Tiger himself also hated the Five Flowers Alliance. Many of his members had suffered persecution by the Five Flowers, so he was more than happy to see Mrs. Lisa attacked by those monsters.

"Forget her, let's go."

Sea Tiger continued to lead the Eagle Mercenary Group to retreat, unwilling to entangle further with Mrs. Lisa, only wanting to quickly leave the palace that hid terrifying monsters.

But.

Bang!

From behind Mrs. Lisa, a skeleton taller than the lady herself, about three to four meters high, slowly walked out. It held a giant axe, was clad in bone armor, and the nether fire in its eye sockets flickered with violence and bloodlust.

That was a Skeleton Warrior.

A fourth-tier undead.

It was the Five Flowers Alliance's trump card, also given to them by the Imperial Envoy as the strongest force tonight to guard against any eventuality.

This Skeleton Warrior was originally intended for Princess Yuffie, but seeing how these Eagle Mercenary adventurers completely disregarded her, with a disdainful look, Mrs. Lisa decided to use them to start, unwilling to be embarrassed in front of the Lord Envoy.
