One-Eyed Monster

Igor’s words deeply moved Princess Juliette.

If Xiso were here, he would certainly be able to analyze where these Alchemists have gone.

A lot has happened these days, some things they led, some they knew about, but calling them coincidences doesn’t quite fit, many things are just so mysterious.

”Xiso still needs to spend some time with Bigas, their time together was already not much.” Princess Juliette said.

Igor isn’t too clear about these kinds of things, after all, he hasn’t experienced love yet. When he does, he will surely become as understanding as Princess Juliette.

Of course, Igor may need to go through several more years before encountering his own love.

However, even though Igor hasn’t experienced love, he is still touched by the story of Xiso and Bigas. He feels that reaching this point is not easy for them...

Yet now is not the time to dwell on the matters of Xiso and Bigas, because within this short time, events have happened one after another.

These incidents in Xinbal are like huge waves, but because they were prepared in advance, they were still able to adapt.

Princess Juliette played a crucial role in this action, without her plants, their information wouldn’t have shared so quickly, and the Dark Cabinet wouldn’t have joined in this operation.

The inclusion of the Dark Cabinet made the entire operation go smoothly.

The Kangen Family, the Dark Cabinet, and some other organizations directly changed the whole of Bayes Avenue in Xinbal. The Kangen Family expended most of their main force to finally extinguish the arrogant flame of the Alchemy Workshop, and the joining of the Dark Cabinet unraveled the mysteries of the royal palace.

The peculiarities of the palace were never really a secret, Igor and his companions had long heard about it, and Princess Juliette was even more informed.

The Soul Devourers occupied the entire royal palace’s Blue Blood League Guards, and even His Majesty was taken by the Soul Devourer. But the members of the Kayne Family have strong willpower, he bravely endured and communicated specific information to his brother Charles in a special way. Princess Juliette also learned about His Majesty’s situation from her brother Charles.

And just moments ago, the Dark Cabinet brought news that thrilled Princess Juliette.

That is, they’ve seized the entire royal palace!

The members of the Dark Cabinet took over the palace silently, which indicates King Harry Kayne is safe and sound.

But Princess Juliette is concerned about the Blue Blood League Guards, what kind of situation are those innocents in? After all, they are the soldiers who protect the king, it’s not their fault for being occupied by the Soul Devourer.

These Blue Blood League Guards merely encountered things they were unfamiliar with at an inappropriate time.

They might be resisting internally, but not everyone can triumph over the Soul Devourers like King Kayne, as these Soul Devourers are all elite, selected from the Border Realm.

Though these Blue Blood League Guards are strong, they are helpless in dealing with realms they’re not familiar with.

There may have been some with strong will who have made progress during their resistance, but ultimately there are still shackles preventing them from breaking free entirely.

This is a very difficult matter to explain.

Princess Juliette remains worried because she possesses a kind heart.

Igor doesn’t perceive this news very clearly, as he is not a Politician, his analysis of the overarching situation isn’t thorough, he can only see some aspects, even if he could see deeply, he is unable to connect them together, due to his youth and experience being limited, he cannot see that far... it’s a hard thing to explain.

But Igor is still able to see the sorrow on Princess Juliette’s face.

So Igor asked, ”What’s actually going on, shouldn’t you be happy about His Majesty’s safety, why still the troubled face?”

”I’m just worried about those Blue Blood League Guards, they were utilized, and in such an unbearable way, they’re utterly unaware of what they’ve done...”

Princess Juliette explained in detail, and soon Igor understood. It turns out Princess Juliette is very concerned about those occupied by the Soul Devourers.

”How are they now, have they been harmed?” Igor asked, though he thought, these high-ranking Fighters wouldn’t be easily harmed by Hunters.

Igor’s assumptions were accurate, indeed, the Dark Cabinet cannot completely subdue the Blue Blood League Guard, they can only temporarily keep watch over these individuals who are no longer themselves...

”Currently the Dark Cabinet has them contained at a certain place within the palace.” Princess Juliette answered, her meaning clear: she isn’t too sure of their situation at the moment.

”Oh, if that’s the case, then we can try to help them regain themselves.” Igor said lightly, as if it were as simple as drinking tea and eating.

”Is there such an opportunity?” Princess Juliette obviously held some suspicion regarding Igor’s words.

”Certainly, I’ve fought Soul Devourers in the Border Realm, encountered their Puppet Masters, Animal Trainers, and Clowns, I have some experience in expelling Soul Devourers.” Igor grew proud, seeming to enjoy a sense of achievement in showing off before Princess Juliette.

”If that’s the case, we should head to the palace now, many await us there!” Princess Juliette promptly said.

”No rush, dear Princess, I haven’t finished my words yet.”

”Finish then, quickly.”

”I know how to expel those Soul Devourers, naturally with Kadi beside me this wouldn’t be difficult. However, Kadi isn’t with us now, making things tricky. And, as you know, I still can’t concentrate all my Spirit Power, I need more energy replenishment.”

”You mean, you need many helpers.”

”Precisely, the more the better, and ideally Wizards, because once the Soul Devourers are driven out, we need to rescue this group of Fighters with weak will.” Igor said, now appearing like a commander.

”Don’t worry about that, we have Wizards aplenty. We’ll now proceed to the palace, the Kangen Family is about to start a major event again.” Princess Juliette smiled, having some expectation for the future.

Shortly thereafter, a piece of news spread across Xinbal.

Members of the Kangen Family suddenly appeared, heading towards the palace. These Wizards have evidently been drawn into the power struggle, has the Kayne Palace become nominal?
