Edward knew the name of Adenos, but he had never heard him mention his surname. Everyone in the Tower did not know that Adenos was actually the prince of the Kingdom of Mara, a royal family that truly possessed the right to inherit the throne.

When he left the City Defense Department, Edward had reached a cooperation agreement with Hans. The goal behind the conspiracy should be the new king's crowning ceremony seven days later. Because Edward's guidance and Hans' own suspicion, the impression that Yadnos might be related to this incident has been imprinted into Hans' heart.

According to Hans, the entire palace has been strictly sealed by the King's Guards. Except for when the king's will was read yesterday and the inheritance rights were decided, Hans entered the kingdom with some great nobles and royal families, and no one has ever entered again.

Moreover, Hans also felt that the changes in the kingdom were too strange. First of all, the king's death was too sudden. All the owners of the throne's inheritance rights gave up the inheritance rights, allowing the original sixth-ranked prince, Adenos, to suddenly become the new king. This also caused an uproar among all the noble groups.

In addition, the entire King's Guards swore allegiance to Adenos, allowing Adenos to instantly grasp the most powerful military force within Babs. You must know that this is the king's personal guard. It is impossible for the new king to be recognized by them before he inherited the throne.

Hans, who was born in the King Guards, knew this well, and he found that his old subordinate, who was born in the King Guards and had a close relationship with the owner of the King Guards, had completely lost contact with the King Guards. Hans knew that the King Guards must have had unexpected changes.

This series of sudden changes and abnormal events are enough to infer some conspiracy that makes people feel creepy. The entire city of Babs has completely fallen into a shocking crisis. If they do not take action, the other party's conspiracy will be completely successful, and the entire Mara Kingdom will be completely destroyed at the crowning ceremony of the king.

This reminds Hans that he feels that his hair is standing up all over his body. Who is able to do such a devilish way? His purpose is not to rule, not the desire for power and revenge, but to naked killing and death, to pull the entire Mara Kingdom into the devil's kingdom.

"Why? Why do you do this?" Hans' face turned red and his breathing was rapid as he spoke.

"There is no reason, maybe it's because of some strange ideal, maybe it's just an experiment to explore the meaning of life, maybe... there are many reasons that only the mastermind behind it knows, and what we need to know is that he has done this, and what we need to do is how to stop him." Edward said.

The cooperation agreement between Edward and Hans is that Edward will find out the conspiracy behind the scenes, knowing whether the other party’s entire plan is different from what they expected. Edward can mobilize the power of the City Defense Force, and Hans will investigate the entire City Defense Force within these few days to find out whether there are any high-level ghouls that have been mixed in. Hans is sure that the city defense force must have also been planted inside the City Defense Force, and he must immediately find out and clear it out.

Then he would use the city defense force to investigate and block the underground waterways based on the original Pabs urban construction drawings. He must completely block these underground monsters in the underground waterways and must not allow them to climb out.

In addition, Babs wanted to contact some trustworthy nobles in the entire city of Babs to expose and fight this conspiracy. If, as Edward said, the other party had already mastered the King's Guards, a total of 1,000 knights, had been transformed into a stronger undead monster army. It would be a dream to fight against them by relying on the two or three thousand of the city defense forces who had not really experienced the war and had trained a little lazy and lazy soldier to fight them.

More importantly, we informed Cardinal Pitt in the Diocese of Light that compared to those lords from all over the world who had long been eyeing the position of the Monal family king, Hans trusted Cardinal Pitt more, and wanted to deal with this devil-like power, the power of the pastors of the Church of Light was also more trustworthy. Although Edward did not like the church people very much, at this time, any power was worth fighting for by himself—

The city of Babs at dusk was dyed with a blood-red color of the sunset. The wide Name River outside the city was rippling with light, which was amazing and intoxicating. The return ship carried cargo with the melodious night bells. The young boatman standing on the bow waved to his wife who was holding the child and waiting on the dock, then jumped up and hugged him into his arms.

The old fisherman carrying fish catches and his young son carried boxes full of fresh fish together, walking home in the shadow of the sunset. The boats coming and going passed by, forming a variety of life. Edward squatted at the pier under the sunset and watched the lives of these people until the darkness completely came, and then walked along the street towards the way home. However, along the way, his expression became more and more serious.

Seven days later, the king's coronation ceremony was the king. Although the people in Babs were still in a peaceful life, Edward felt an unusual sense of tension and impatience. The atmosphere of the war was so depressed that he felt his whole body trembling involuntarily.

When he approached home, Edward found that in front of the small building he lived on, there were people standing in front of the street, constantly pointing in, as if he was talking about something, and the staff of the city guard were also standing in the yard. The whole yard seemed lively, but the atmosphere seemed extremely strange.

The doors of the room were destroyed. Seeing this scene, Edward was suddenly stunned. He suddenly understood something and ran into the room quickly.

"What are you doing? Don't let me get in, stand..."

The people from the City Guard immediately wanted to block Edward, but immediately recognized Edward and knew that this person was an acquaintance in front of his boss Tucker, so he immediately let Edward rush into the building.

Edward entered the door and suddenly stopped. His steps suddenly became hiding, as if he was weak all over. He walked through the corridor and came to the living room. He immediately saw a girl lying in the hall with a joyful and shy smile on her face that made Edward familiar with. At this moment, he fell in the pool of blood like a delicate flower. The bright red blood spread on the ground, dyeing her slightly white gray dress that had been washed red.

She died without pain. The curse of witchcraft made her die in an instant. When she died, she was still looking forward to Edward's return, immersed in her little love and shyness, the smile on her face did not change. The silver plate that was knocked down on the side was the supper she was preparing for him.

However, Edward had been a young wizard who left the tower for the first time. He grew up in the tower since he was a child. This was the first time he had seen such a person he liked and was familiar with and valued. He died in front of him. Looking at Hathaway who had a smile on his face, he suddenly withered like a beautiful flower. Edward suddenly felt a sour smell rushing his nose and eyes along his chest, and he was a little at a loss.

Edward wanted to move forward, but he didn't stop. He fell to the ground all of a sudden and stood up. He walked to Hathaway like he had lost his soul and knelt in front of Hathaway. For more than half a month, Hathaway has been taking care of her. For this humble but hardworking and kind girl, after her father disappeared, Edward had a very good impression of the girl who raised two younger brothers by relying on his work. Just like Hathaway's young Muai, Edward was just an ignorant boy. He chased Adenos tightly, just for the friendship and brotherhood that he could not let go.

Edward held Hathaway's face and finally lowered his head and couldn't help sobbing. He cried like a child. At this time, Tucker, who was standing aside and came a while ago before Edward, patted Edward on the shoulder, and could only sigh and said, "Sad!"

Edward noticed a line of words on the table next to him that seemed to be traces after being burned: "Leave now!"

It was Adenos who was warning Edward, and even to express his determination, he killed Hathaway, warning Edward in such a decisive and breaking form that he would leave immediately, and he would not pay attention to any sympathy.

Edward hugged Hathaway's body tightly, and even if it was covered with blood, he didn't care at all. He gently stroked Shanghai Thavi's eyes, looked at Hathaway's eyes, closed his eyes little by little, and finally fell into Edward's arms. At the same time, Edward's head lowered deeply, the muscles in his body became stiff, and the muscles in his mouth were trembling and protruding a few words.
