For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

The moment she was freed, Bertha rushed to Roosevelt she placed his head on her lap trying to keep him conscious. Eleanor also commanded the servants to bring a doctor and anything to stop the bleeding as fast as possible.

Lennox rolled his eyes with a disgusted expression, he mumbled:" you guys and your shitty principles are annoying ".

The maid stayed in her bowing position, she said formally:" I bid for your forgiveness, your highness ".

Now that the exit is empty, and somehow she seemed to be forgotten. Adelaide decided to seize this opportunity and flee. In an instant, she dashed toward the door the fastest she could.

Clank

Yet, before she could reach the exit, a sudden feeling of lightness came from her lower limbs followed by a wave of sharp pain. Adelaide crashed heavily on the floor, tears flooding wildly. overwhelmed by pain, she tried to hug her legs to relieve the pain, but there was nothing. Under that ragged dress there was supposed to be her legs but now only a lake of blood.

Adelaides' screams became louder and severe, everyone was appalled. On the floor next to the miserable Adelaide a pair of legs thrown like some kind of sticks, above them hanged a long white sword pierced on the wall, with a Violette halt on its top a little golden leave was warped around. It wasn't hard to guess who's sword was that.

Lennox stood leisurely and walked to the direction of his sword.

Lennox sighed:" I told you it's impossible to run from me, why do you insist on making things bothersome?".

Lennox tugged the sword, while keeping his leisure pace, he advanced to Adelaide. When Bertha realized Lennoxs' intention, she hurriedly stood to dash between them. after all, Adelaide still her beloved sister, even if she was using her as hostage minute ago, Bertha couldn't just idly watch her die.

But she was stopped by the suspiciously-unsuspicious maid, the maid pressed on Berthas' shoulder as a gesture to tell her to retreat.

The maid:" lady, give up on that. His highness won't let this slide peacefully. This might not be the right way to handle this problem, but miss Adelaide committed lots of crimes and she shall be punished".

Was there anything she could do? If Bertha really did stand for Adelaide, Lennox probably will kill them both without blinking an eye. She turned to Eleanor in hope he will know what to do, and the later was speechless, his face dark and his eyebrows frowned. Seeing that he had already given up, Bertha did so, she closed her eyes and dropped her head to avoid Adelaide ghastly state.

On the side, Lennox walked closer and closer, with every step Adelaide would flinch. When Lennox reached in front of her, few inches between them, Adelaides' screams turned to whine.

She implored: "your highness....your highness please spare me..... please I beg you..... I will do anything... so just this one if you forgive me ".

Adelaide extended her arm to reach for his foot, hugging his legs, begging for mercy, praying that he might pity her.

But the one in question is Lennox!!

her hand couldn't even touch him when a white light crossed before her eyes. And her arm fell on the ground stiffly.

Lennox said in a Resentful tone:" don't touch me with your filthy hands".

Another wave of unbearable pain flowed in her body, Adelaide held her shoulder firmly, she rolled on the on a lake of her blood and screamed 'till her voice became hoarse, tears and blood merged on her face.

Lennox looked at her in disgust, he said dreadfully.

"really unsightly ".

When Adelaides' screams could no more be heard, Bertha opened her eyes. What she saw on that red crimson ground, was a black-clad youth, his shadow dark like the gate of the abyss, his white Uranian-Blue skin brightening in darkness, in the depth of his peach black eyes something was shining.

Really, what is Lennox?

While Bertha wasn't paying attention, the doctor has arrived, he didn't spare a look at the bloody thing next to Lennoxs' feet. But directly went to the one who looks more human, none of the servants dared to step in, there was even those who vomited or fainted.

Lennox handed the sword to the umbrella butler, he turned to the suspiciously-unsuspicious maid and said indifferently: "hey Welfmore woman, you are coming with me to the palace‐"

Yet, before he could finish his sentence. He heard a sound of fast and light steps followed by Everlys' voice calling for him.

"LENNOX!!".

Lennox blurted:" what the fuck!?".

Everly broke through the servants and like a flash she grabbed Lennox then jumped out of the window.

Both Henry Raj and the umbrella butler were startled, they dashed to the window where Everly jumped from, to see that she landed on her feet. The next second, Everly leapt high skyward, like one jump would take them a hundred meters away. Only when there figure disappeared did the umbrella butler and Henry raj came to their sense, they immediately rushed to the door to follow behind the kids.

*****

Lennox idly laid on Everlys' back, idly watching himself being kidnapped, then idly said:" zombie girl, what are you doing ".

Everly:" I am sorry to take suddenly like this, but we are late... I was supposed to get you a long time ago, but there was a doll show and I wanted to watch it and it was BEAUTIFUL ".

Lennox was suppressing his anger, veins popped on his forehead:" if you wanted to go back to the palace, you could have used the carriage, why jumping like a monkey".

Everly said naively:" huh? We are not going back home".

Lennox:" then where?".

Everly:" we are going to collect candies ".

Lennox thought 'There was something that escaped my mind when I came here, something that shouldn't have, how could I forget that girl is...'

Hella stupid.
