Victoria woke up from her sleep, and she was so exhausted that she lay down on the grass to rest after surfacing.
Her bestial intuition allowed her to feel that someone was near her.
In the past, Victoria would stick to the ground to keep a distance from the other party without hesitation, and then quickly bounced up in a safe range, but now she just lazily opened her eyes and turned her head to look in the direction of the visitor.
"You really aren't dead yet."
It was Duncan wearing light mithril armor. The standard equipment of the old Enoch blood knight was badly damaged, and it was black and covered with corrosive blood.
Victoria just glanced at him and then looked away, looking at the less dazzling sun in the sky, enjoying the aftertaste of the dream.
After five or six minutes, she remembered that Duncan was still standing there.
"Since you appear here, it means that Enoch City has successfully floated up."
"Yes, those residents are still alive and well. The defensive techniques modified by the wizard are very good. We didn't die a single person during the ascent -"
Duncan's voice, while equally weary, was mingled with unabashed relief.
Victoria interrupted him.
"Miss, has she returned to the city of Enoch?"
Duncan didn't get angry because of the other party's powerlessness, he just opened his mouth and finally sighed:
"...I'm sorry to hear from those young wizards that she saved Nod."
"is that so."
Victoria nodded.
This can be regarded as the first thing she wanted to do without any pretense in her more than ten years of life.
But she still failed, but she got such mild comfort at the end.
The girl unexpectedly found that she was not very sad, she just couldn't laugh.
"Are you here to kill me?"
Victoria barely recalled that she had made this promise to Duncan. The girl recognized the other party's hatred and killing intent towards her, and agreed that Duncan would put this killing intent into action after everything was over.
"Try to be as fast as possible. My strength has been exhausted after the last repair of my body. One beheading should be enough."
She heard the sound of the sword being unsheathed, but she didn't care about it, and just continued to look at the beating sun in the distance.
But the expected pain didn't come, the sword chopped off the girl's braids and landed precisely on the side of her neck.
"Enough people have died...Let's stop here for vengeance."
Chapter 2 Not a Silent Dawn
"If you want revenge, you can do it anytime. I should have died long ago."
Victoria pushed the blade away with one finger, which left a bright red gash on the tip of her index finger.
A drop of agate-like blood oozed out and remained on her fingertips for a long time.
Duncan frowned slightly, the other party's current lazy appearance made him feel a little weird.
But considering that Victoria is the only remaining high-ranking dirty blood, he still tried to organize the language:
"It will take a certain amount of time to rebuild Enoch. Counting the residents of the upper and lower urban areas and the dirty blood pariahs who survived, we still have more than 1000 people. If we can have a few more helpers, things will be easier."
"Would you like to help me?"
Victoria scoffed and laughed.
"Don't come to me for this kind of thing, and rebuilding the city doesn't require a combat force that can only kill people?"
"If Miss's original plan had been followed, the surviving people among me and her would have ascended the throne at this time, secretly killing all the living nobles or dirty blood pariahs, except for those who have not been transformed and do not have the urge to drink blood of Nod."
Duncan subconsciously put his hand on the hilt again, but he soon realized what Victoria meant by saying this without reservation-she probably wouldn't do it anymore.
Duncan, who let go of his fingers, recalled what the strange puppet told him to tell Victoria, but felt that the content might irritate the seemingly calm girl now, so he hesitated to speak.
"Your Highness Abigail... No, Miss Fittilly told you at the end that you have to find the answer by yourself. You are different from her after all."
Victoria was silent for a long time, then nodded slightly.
"I've found it... It's just a pity I haven't had the chance to tell her."
She patted the dust off her body and looked at Duncan for the first time.
"You are the most suitable person to lead Enoch now. There is a certain possibility in you... Maybe the future of Dirty Blood will really change."
"I will go back to the monastery and lock myself up, and pray for you quietly. In addition, I want to see if I can suppress the urge to drink blood like you... Don't worry about losing control, in Until then I'll leave the address with the wizards, and they'll kill me if I fail."
"It's the same for you. If I get news that Enoch has returned to the same hell as before, I will come back and kill you all with my own hands."
"Farewell, Your Majesty the New King—hope we never meet again."

"...That's it, the content of the contract is basically unchanged. This island will continue to serve as a stronghold for the Nods, and the wizard group of the alliance will temporarily be responsible for supervision and security maintenance. The people in charge of this work are ours. An old acquaintance, Captain Lucien."
"He will help those Nods slowly return to normal human society. The latter can choose to fend for themselves after obtaining legal status, or they can stay and work in the alliance's estate-if they choose."
Hyde explained in front of the portal that was confirmed to be in normal use, and after saying this, he yawned again.
The hidden dangers brought to his body by forcibly using banned drugs to restore his strength in the battle before were too great, and he would feel very tired as long as he expended a little physical strength.
Hyde pinched his eyebrows,
"That's about it... let's go back first and see you again later."
After everything is over, they don't have much to say now, and Hyde also needs to return to White Rose Manor to try treatment early.
Shadow shrugged, walked a few steps forward and walked behind Hyde, complaining naggingly:
"I'm going to think about it carefully. It's been too long, and I even forgot whether Sibilla has done any research on the power of blood... Anyway, at least change him back to his original appearance! You guys I know! My first boyfriend who lived for 2000 years turned out to be a kid who looked only seven or eight years old, it’s really embarrassing to say it!"
"...and I'm afraid I'll have to see old Belusay."
Speaking of this incident, Helena woke up and fell into extreme panic and astonishment after witnessing the relationship between her younger brother and a lady doll.
She claimed to have been severely traumatized and left the island via the portal early.
Ella and the others almost believed what the female Belusa said - if the latter didn't have a bad smile on her face when she ran away.
Anyway, Ella was happy to see the two friends come together.Although this surprised her, she thought it was just a joke when Ling was gossiping with Ella before.
After waving goodbye to Hyde and Shadow, Ling suddenly asked:
"What about us, should we fly all the way back or stay here and wait for the alliance fleet? You should not be able to use the portal now."
Creatures or items with too strong magic power will affect the stability of the transmission channel. It is fine if it is a short-distance transmission and flashing, but once the process is prolonged, the former will be rejected by the space ability.
In London a few years ago, Albert Kleist, the strongest wizard who carried the crown of thorns, could not be teleported directly from Kraft for this reason.
Compared to leaving the land of Nod last time, Ella became a little more powerful.
What's more, she is still carrying two pieces of divine crystals containing terrifying magic power. It should be common sense that the transmission cannot be completed in this situation.
But Ella turned her head in some doubts. In her eyes, the world in front of her seemed to become two illusory images that almost overlapped each other.
"I thought so too at first... but I always feel that the rules of the material world have become a little different from before. I even feel that I can teleport from here to England in one go even with them."
"It's not an illusion."
Fred appeared behind them, and most of the injured wizards had been sent back to the Faust Manor, which was the fortress of the Alliance, while he, who was in good condition, stayed here to wait for the follow-up handover with his eldest son Lucien.
"The concentration of magic power in the material world has increased a lot. Although this is not a good thing...but it is indeed enough to afford you to complete long-distance transmission."
"What does this change mean?"
Ling immediately asked.
The short-haired girl felt a little uneasy almost instinctively, each of them heard the hymn-like melody before Enoch floated up.
Fred shook his head.
"Based on previous experience, it is foreseeable that mysterious events will occur more frequently in the future than before, and even some extinct species will reappear. As for the deeper things... perhaps only grams of Someone like Leicester would know."
At this moment, Ella, who was originally silent, suddenly said:
"Mr. Fred, I plan to meet Professor Kleist recently."
"Compared with him... who do you think is stronger now?"
Chapter 3 Comparison
"Going to see Albert Crest? My advice is not to."
"As far as I know, his current condition is very bad, and he may not be able to survive for too long. He just needs to wait quietly for a while, and maybe he will -"
A somewhat surprised Fred looked into Ella's eyes, and then he realized that the girl was serious.
The latter is fully awakened to face the wizard who has been recognized as the strongest in the world for nearly a hundred years.
"If you must go...Let me think about it, although Kleist has far more magic than you, but he is very old after all, whether it is physical health or pure magic In terms of strength, you should not be as good as you are now. So...without considering external forces, I think you are not much different in terms of pure personal strength now."
"Then there's the external factor. Clester took on a serious curse a few years ago, and it's a message Howard left before he left. According to him, it happened around the same time in the Whitechapel area. After the coming of the Son of God, the headmaster has been trying to lift the curse, but failed several times in a row, which even endangered his life."
One of the names appeared made Ella narrow her eyes slightly, and she quickly got rid of her emotions and asked:
"The teacher is saying...after the Whitechapel? It seems that Mr. Headmaster's expulsion of the son of Abhoth was not as smooth as we imagined."
She couldn't help but review the situation from the perspective of now.
The Son of Abhoth is the true Son of God who has partially descended in the material world. Due to Ulysses Philip's concealment, no one really foresaw His coming until the situation really broke out.
Professor Kleist was indeed very powerful in being able to exile this Son of God before the disaster further expanded.
She had a vague feeling that this matter might be related to the rescue that arrived two years ago, which was a vague connection she could feel when it involved events of the same level.
"Kleist's current state is bad. This can be regarded as your advantage, but it is also the only point."
Fred's voice became serious.
