Now in this place where the bright moonlight shines, there is only one man sitting on a bench who is constantly drinking, and seems to be using alcohol to relieve his worries.

"Why do you drink here alone, the time is coming soon? Lord Yong Ye"

Taking light steps, the girl came from a distance, and sat beside him without asking.

"...Lilia fell asleep too."

Without asking why the girl knew that she was here, Yong Ye knew that the other party could easily control a person's psychology, and only briefly stated the current situation.

"Really? ... You look tired."

"Fortunately, this level is nothing."

"Don't push yourself too hard. I believe that Miss Lilia doesn't want to see you blame yourself like this. You don't need to attribute everything to yourself, um~ I remember there is a very good way to relieve stress!"

Ruisi clapped her hands, and then she snatched the wine bottle in her hand, pressed Yong Ye's shoulders with both hands, and pressed him over here. When she met resistance, she used the same silver bell as usual. said the voice.

"Come on, don't resist, this is a very rare special service. Only you, I will do this. This is part of the contract. Please be honest and obedient now."

Hearing the girl's naughty voice, Yong Ye followed her and was pressed down from one side because of the promise she made to let the girl help him.

Then, as he slowly poured out, he quickly felt that his side face was touched by a soft water-like feeling.

"What's the special meaning of this...?"

"Knee pillow, don't men yearn for this most?"

"...Who knows, at least I don't have that kind of hobby."

"Then let me develop your hobby."

Speaking so naturally, Ruisi put her hand on Yong Ye's head, and like Yong Ye touched her hair before, she tugged his short hair, and stroked his head like a child, making Yong Ye very happy. A very strange feeling.

"Tired?"

"No."

"You're trying to be brave again, Lord Yong Ye is really... Why do you love to be brave? If you tell the truth here, no one will see it?"

"...you're not here."

"Yes, I will always be here, please don't drive me away."

"…"

I don't know how to answer, so Yong Ye managed to keep silent, but Ruisi spoke again.

"I also know about Miss Lilia, but that can't be blamed on anyone, and Lord Yongye has worked very hard, and has been working hard all the time, desperately trying to do everything well, really trying too hard to let me My heart hurts, so... just now, let's take a break, okay?"

As if a saint forgives sinners, the girl smiled tenderly.

Chapter Eleven Doomsday Comes

"...Speaking of which, Lord Yong Ye, when is your birthday?"

"Birthday?"

"If it's recently, then let's celebrate it? Just to ease the tension recently."

"...I don't know, and that kind of thing is good, I don't need it."

"do not know?"

Ruisi was a little surprised, obviously did not expect the answer to be this, but she quickly reacted, and did not ask the reason in detail, but said remedially.

"Since I don't know, how about the winter festival? It happens that the winter festival is twenty-three days away, so I should be able to catch up."

"...Please, don't randomly determine other people's birthdays."

"Anyway, you think it's just something that doesn't matter, so it doesn't matter, right? If that's the case, then the winter festival is over. I will definitely prepare gifts, so stay tuned~"

In this way, Yong Ye's birthday was arbitrarily determined amid the cheerful laughter of the girl.

But... on the battlefield called reality, everything is not like a movie or a novel. Accidents are accompanied by precursors - no matter what.

On the evening before the winter festival, the end finally broke out.

That evening.

Yong Ye took a team of Templars to protect him, and when he was walking on the street to check the current situation and observe the current situation of the imperial capital, he suddenly felt abnormal and stopped to look around.

The surrounding Templars noticed his movements, and they also stopped to put their hands on the swords and shields of the knights, and glanced around vigilantly.

But they didn't find anything unusual, there seemed to be nothing strange around them, and the passers-by wisely avoided the vigilant knights.

At sunset, many people were rushing home, but ... more than a dozen people suddenly stopped in the crowd for some reason, and the pestle did not move by the side of the road.

It was as if they had been immobilized collectively, and everyone stood there like a stone sculpture, and their eyes were not focused.

Under the protection of the knight, Yong Ye came to a pair of sisters who went shopping and went home. They were the only couple in the crowd. The two of them were dazed together, and their hands were still held together.

"What are you doing?...Hello?"

Yong Ye tried to call the girl, swayed his hand in front of the two of them a few times, pinched their cheeks, and finally slapped the two of them with the back of his hand neither light nor heavy.

There was no reaction at all. Their behavior was different from losing consciousness. It seemed that they were simply stunned, but they did not respond to external stimuli.

In addition, Yong Ye noticed that their lips were slightly closed, as if they were murmuring something, but they couldn't hear any sound when they put it on.

"Your Majesty, what is this..."

The knight also discovered this anomaly and couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know, but if there is no accident, that thing is about to start. Immediately notify the knights, the chant, the cardinals, the heretic inquisition, the summoned quasi-heroes, and the imperial defense army through the communication spar. , the Royal Guard and other related units, everything is going according to plan!"

Yong Ye pinched the girl's mouth and played with the girl like a puppet. At the same time, he issued an order to the Templars beside him, and finally added as he remembered, "The Silver Eyes will let them escape from the imperial capital quickly. Well, they're free."

Confused and confused voices gradually appeared all around. According to the words of the Templars who were wearing heavy armor but still easily climbed the five-story building, the scope of the situation was extremely wide, and the mutation seemed to appear in any corner of the imperial capital.

Gradually, about 20% of the people suddenly stopped moving and froze in place. Even two Templars from the twelve-man squad on Yongye's side suddenly stopped moving and stood still as if they had lost their souls.

This abnormal situation made the civilians even more confused. Of course, no one would think this is a normal phenomenon.

"...Leave the two of them alone for the time being, and go to the church with me to find out what's going on."

The situation was faster than expected. Yong Ye, who did not have much power, naturally called the Templars to prepare to go to the sanctuary. He wanted to use the curse tool placed in the conference room to observe the curse mirror of the entire empire. specific circumstances of the disaster.

Reis and Lilia are both in the underground ark and don't need to worry. Many important people are also in the ark. The key now is how long the empire and the Church of Zanguang can last.
