Demon Royal Family

Rebecca picked up the red "knight" with her slender fingers, took a step on the chessboard, and died together with the black "wizard". The rules of Goloro chess are interesting, and the consequences of collision of chess pieces of different levels are different. "Knight" kills " Wizard” and both die together, but it’s a small profit for the red side.

Rebecca smiled proudly, looked up at her best friend, and immediately curled her lips in dissatisfaction, "Are you thinking about your idol again?"

Alba, who was resting her chin on her head, was startled, her face turned slightly red, and she said angrily: "Don't, don't talk nonsense."

Since visiting Ivo a few days ago, Alba has been distracted from time to time, and sometimes there will be an inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth. How could the experienced Rebecca not know that this is a sign of liking someone, a longing or a secret crush? Appropriately, the only target is Ivo.

"It's true, Deacon Ivo, we came to visit him, but he didn't come back without visiting," Rebecca muttered dissatisfied, "Don't you know that courtesy should be reciprocated?"

Alba defended: "I am a papal deacon and I am busy with work, so it is appropriate not to come to visit."

Rebecca said quietly: "I haven't even married yet, and my elbows are turned outward."

Alba's cheeks turned red and she said nothing.

Rebecca messed up the Glory chessboard and said angrily: "I won't play anymore."

Shi Sai, who was standing aside, came up to clean up the chessboard. He was a member of the Brotherhood and followed to protect Rebecca. The Sandro family was the new friend of the Brotherhood. Rebecca glanced at Shi Sai's face, which was always wearing a black mask, and curled her lips. She knew the origin of the entourage. Shi Sai had always been conscientious, but Rebecca never let down her guard.

Suddenly, Shi Sai's expression changed, he pulled out the dagger from his waist, rushed out of the room like an agile leopard, and shouted in a low voice: "There is an intruder, miss, please leave quickly!" As soon as he finished speaking, there was an angry sound outside the room. The shouts and the collision of weapons were as dense as a shower. Sese whistled to summon his companions, and the brotherhood members who were guarding all over the manor heard the sound and rushed over.

Alba reacted quickly, pulling the stunned Rebecca out of the window. Their room was on the second floor. Alba hugged Rebecca, stretched her body in mid-air, and landed gently. Before she could take a breath, a cold light flashed in front of her eyes. The long sword slashed across the face with heavy force. The attacker was wearing temple armor and a black cloak. He was the night watchman.

"Ah--" Rebecca screamed. In desperation, Alba's body, which had been trained by military officers, subconsciously followed Rebecca's instinct and rolled her body down, narrowly avoiding the slash of the sword and breaking into a cold sweat. He turned around and shouted: "Stop, we are nobles of the Sandra family!"

The night watchman made a movement, took a look, and after confirming that everything was correct, he left the two of them behind and rushed into the manor villa.

Only then did the two women realize that a fierce battle broke out in the villa. The lights were bright, the shouts of killing were loud, and the clanging sounds of fighting continued. Unknown how many night watchmen rushed into the villa, and the guards of the Sandra family faced them. The first reaction to an uninvited guest is to fight back. Occasionally, there will be a loud bang and fire exploding the windows of the villa. This is because the night watchman has used magic or a divine blade.

"What, what's going on?" Rebecca was shocked and angry. Why did the night watchman attack Sandro Manor at night?

"I don't know, let's find a safe place quickly!" Alba gritted her teeth, picked up Rebecca, and walked away from the villa.

The fierce battle lasted for ten minutes, and a big hole suddenly exploded on the top of the villa. Thin red flames shot up into the sky like a pillar of fire, lighting up the night sky. The villa was set on fire, and the blazing fire reflected the panicked faces of the two women, finally causing Attracting the attention of the Augustus City guards, groups of soldiers broke open the gate of the manor and surrounded the burning villa.

"Father and mother are still in there!" Rebecca exclaimed.

At this time, a figure covered in blood appeared in front of the two women. It was Shi Sai. At this moment, he was covered with bruises and said weakly: "Two ladies, the Earl and his wife are safe..."

"What's going on?" Alba asked anxiously.

"They are all night watchmen. They are tracking the heretics. I don't know what clues they found in the manor. They killed the Brotherhood and colluded with the heretics. They are hunting down the Brotherhood members..." Shi Sai said while coughing.

Rebecca screamed angrily: "The church is so outrageous! They attacked the noble manor without permission. This is disrespecting the majesty of the empire! Do they want to provoke a war?! They actually use the Sandra family as a battlefield. I must File an arbitration with the Imperial Court!" Anyone who stays at home peacefully and is broken into, beaten, smashed, looted, and burned, only to find out later that he was just a victim, will have such an angry reaction!

Alba supported Shisai and said worriedly: "You are injured and need help."

Shi Sai smiled miserably: "These night watchmen are crazy and will not let any brotherhood member go. This matter has nothing to do with the two ladies, so don't worry about me."

"Absolutely not!" Alba insisted.

Rebecca looked on with cold eyes. She was not as "naive" as Alba. She considered more. The Brotherhood would cause the Sandro family to suffer unreasonable disasters. She had a deeper prejudice against Sese, and maybe the Brotherhood really colluded with heretics?

Thinking of this, Rebecca said coldly: "Please leave Sandro Manor immediately and don't make the situation more serious."

Shi Sai smiled bitterly, "I know..." He originally had the last glimmer of hope to obtain the asylum of the Sandra family and the protection of the royal capital guards, but Rebecca weighed the pros and cons and obviously did not want to retain him.

Alba was in disbelief, "Rebecca, you..."

"Stop talking, drive him away quickly," Rebecca said in a stern tone: "I should have strongly opposed the association between the brotherhood and the family. This group of thugs in the shadows really brought disaster to my family. There is no way here. Welcome."

Alba looked at Rebecca in shock, suddenly feeling very strange. The charming and charming "Rebecca" who talked and laughed at the party was just a disguise for her to win over people. Maybe Rebecca, who had been educated by an aristocrat, was really His character is like this now, indifferent and profit-oriented.

"I won't abandon him." Alba silently supported the seriously injured Shisai and walked out of the manor without looking back. Rebecca looked at the back of her companion, a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes, which was eventually replaced by indifference.

The friendship that seems to be indestructible when we are children may be just something that can be parted casually when faced with the consideration of interests when we grow up. It is like a beautiful bubble, colorful and magnificent in the sun, but in fact it bursts at the touch of a touch.

Shi Sai said weakly: "Miss Alba, I will implicate you..."

Alba looked determined, "I will take you to a safe place."

Shi Sai smiled bitterly, facing the special identity of the night watchman, where is the safe place?

A domineering figure flashed through Alba's mind, and she gritted her teeth. The other person was the Pope's deacon. Perhaps he was the only one who could protect Shisai from being pursued by the Night Watchmen.

…

Ivo put down the book in his hand and turned to look at the faint firelight in the night sky outside the window with a surprised look on his face. The firelight was some distance away from Westminster Cathedral, and it looked like an ordinary fire.

He shook his head and continued to read, but suddenly he felt uneasy and couldn't read. He simply put on his priest's robe, walked out of the room, grabbed a passing priest, and asked, "I just saw a fire in the distance. what happened?"

The pastor shook his head, "I don't know, that direction seems to be the Sandra Family Manor."

Pastor Ivoren left, frowning, his intuition vague and uncertain. He trusted his intuition very much and had saved him many times.

"Strange..." Ivo touched his chin and said to himself.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the church hall. Ivo felt moved and hurriedly walked over.

It was night now, the evening prayer time was over, and the church was closed. At this time, several priests gathered in front of the church door. Ivo walked over and was slightly startled. Alba, whom he had met once, supported Alba who was covered in blood. The men had knocked on the church door and were begging the priest to let them in.

"Alba? What are you doing here?" Ivo looked at the injured man with a puzzled look on his face. He was slightly startled to see that it was Rebekah's follower who he suspected was a member of the Brotherhood.

Seeing Ivo's arrival, the priests stepped aside respectfully. Alba's eyes lit up and she hurriedly said: "Deacon Ivo, please take us in..."

Ivo frowned, stretched out his hand to lift Shi Sai's clothes, and inspected his wound. His eyes suddenly condensed, and the aura of the divine blade remaining on the wound did not escape his eyes.

Ivo's face turned serious, "Let's talk in my room."
