"Master Mu En certainly doesn't know me."

The maid didn't stop walking.

"Because I was selected into the Duke's Palace last night."

"last night……"

Mu En reacted: "The person who helped the banquet?"

"Yes, I'm here to help."

The maid walked to the tea table in the center of the room and placed the tray with cakes and teacups on the table.

"It's just that there is another task."

"Other... tasks?"

Mu En was still chewing on the meaning of the maid's words, but suddenly saw that the maid pulled out a dagger with a cold light from the bottom of the tray.

The movement of her drawing out the dagger was so natural that Mu En was stunned for a moment before reacting.

The heart and pupils tightened at the same time, and a large amount of blood poured into his mind, making Mu En's thoughts run rapidly in this short moment.

——Her goal is not me, because she obviously had the best chance when she just walked in.

That is to say...

"Celecia!"

Mu En couldn't help shouting to remind.

The figure of the maid suddenly disappeared.

Like a fragile phantom in the sun.

And the next time she appeared, she would be directly in front of Celishia.

"So fast!"

Mu En couldn't help exclaiming.

The rooms in the Duke's Mansion are not too small.

Since the tea table had just been overturned and then lifted up again, it was several meters away from the sofa.

But this distance does not seem to exist for the maid.

In just the blink of an eye, the sharp dagger in her hand had already slashed straight at Celishia's fair and fragile neck.

Death raised his scythe here.

……

Ding.

The scene of blood splattering in Mu En's imagination did not happen.

Celishia's expression remained indifferent, facing the maid's surprise attack, there was still no panic in her cold eyes.

She didn't know when she raised her hand, and the ice mirror in her hand condensed into an ice blue rapier, blocking the dagger accurately.

Centering on the place where the ice blue rapier and dagger collided, invisible ripples spread, smashing the tea table and sofa, leaving sharp cutting marks on the surrounding walls!

"let me guess."

Celishia stared at the maid and asked coldly:

"Did my stupid good brother send you?"

"Sorry, Your Royal Highness, the employer's information is top secret."

The maid suddenly pulled back, but her eyes showed no intention of retreating, she just wanted to pull away to stop the attack again.

But how could Celishia give her this chance!

With a light touch on the toes, a thin layer of frost quickly spread to the maid, and with the help of some water stains on the ground, the spreading speed became more and more violent!

While avoiding the maid, she couldn't help frowning and asked, "Where did so much water come from?"

"..."

Celishia, whose expression has always been like an iceberg that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, suddenly felt a touch of embarrassment in her eyes, and her cheeks were a little red. She stomped her feet suddenly, and the frost suddenly formed countless sharp ice spines, which pierced upwards and slammed into the air. avoid the maid.

[WEB] 18. Ideas from different angles

"Fuck, gods fight, and mortals suffer?"

Mu En was shrinking in the corner at the moment, looking humble, weak, helpless, and pitiful.

He looked down at the cut mark that was only a few centimeters away from his butt, and couldn't help but shuddered violently.

No, you can't stay here, otherwise you don't know how you died.

Taking advantage of the fierce battle between the two, Mu En leaned against the corner and slowly moved towards the door.

Fortunately, the maid assassin's target is not him, and he has no time to take care of him, a weak chicken.

So Mu En quickly moved to the door, and he could easily escape just by opening the door.

"what?"

Mu En turned the doorknob hard, but it didn't move.

"Huh huh?"

Mu En's face turned extremely pale.

Sure enough, the maid assassin was well prepared.

It's no wonder she dared to assassinate the three princesses of the dignified empire in the heavily guarded duke's mansion!

"But it's so strange, there is no such paragraph in the original book!"

Mu En clutched her head in pain, squatted down slowly again, her brain was running crazily.

But no matter how he mobilized his memory, he could only get a clear answer

——The original book definitely doesn’t have this paragraph!

"Why did an assassin suddenly appear, what went wrong?"

"This is the dignified duke's mansion! How could the assassins invade so easily without triggering any warning?"

"Could it be that……"

Thinking of what the assassin said before, Mu En suddenly had a thought that made him feel bad.

"Is it because of the order I gave that these assassins have a chance?"

In the original book, Noel, the sick maid, does not get a chance to rest.

The original owner did not even issue an order to recruit new staff from outside to ensure the smooth progress of the banquet!

But in the current world line, because of Mu En's little kindness, everything has changed.

The manpower recruited by the head maid from outside overnight has become the only flaw in the strict duke's mansion today!

"But this is too outrageous. The search for someone was carried out overnight last night!"

I believe that the head maid is also aware of the issue of safety and trust, and immediately carried out the order when she received Mu En's order!

The purpose is not to give time for the outside world to react.

But even so, among those recruited, there were still assassins mixed in.

"Could it be that someone is watching the Duke's mansion 24 hours a day?"

Mu En wanted to break her head, and only came up with this conclusion that she thought was the most likely.

However, any conjectures are actually of no help to his real situation!

He's still standing on the brink of death because of what he did!

"For now, we can only wait and pray quietly that Celishia can defeat the assassin. Weak chickens like me can't do anything."

"Huh? Wait? For me, Celishia's win...is that a good ending?"

"The assassin's target is obviously only Celishia!"

Mu En's eyes widened suddenly, because in this desperate situation, he unexpectedly thought of an unexpected life.

That's right.

As long as Celishia dies here, what happened to me and her...

Doesn't it mean that no one knows?

……

When Mu En fell into self-entanglement, the battle situation on the field also changed suddenly.

The maid once again showed the initial speed, turned into an afterimage, and dodged the ice thorns that Celishia condensed like countless blades.

The ice thorns covered all the landing points under the maid's feet. Even if she dodged the first attack, she would have nowhere to escape, just like falling prey in a spiked trap.

But when she reappeared, it was as if she had lost all her weight, and she fell lightly from the air. With just a little force on her toes, the tip of the ice thorn would pierce through her, standing alone, graceful like a dancer on the tip of a knife. By.

"Some sort of short burst of footwork, and...gravity magic."

Celishia's eyes were dark, and the more she saw through the maid's methods, the more serious her thoughts became.

"There is no sign of magic activation, is it attached to some kind of prop?"

"As expected of Your Highness Celishia."

A strange purple light flashed in the maid's right eye.

"You can see through my moves right away."

"It's because you underestimate me."

Celishia narrowed her eyes and sneered:

"Just attacking me head-on like this, do you really think I'm a soft persimmon?"

"No, we have paid enough attention to His Royal Highness Celishia."

The maid's eyes swept across Celishia's lower body without a trace, and a smile of unknown meaning suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth:

"Also, despite having a certain advantage, Her Highness Celishia did not take the initiative to attack. Doesn't this just show the correct timing at this moment?

after all--

Her Highness Celishia is also a woman. As long as she is a woman, if she experiences such a thing for the first time, or in such an intense situation, it will always affect her physical strength...or other abilities. "

"you--"

For the first time, Celishia was so angry that she lost her composure:

"Do you want me to tear your dirty, stinking mouth out for a while?"

"Hehe, as an assassin, I shouldn't have so many words.

but……"

The maid suddenly restrained her smile, her eyes were as cold as iron.

"Sometimes, assassins also need to delay time, don't they?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was an ear-piercing buzzing sound.

Then the whole room began to tremble, as if it was experiencing a magnitude [-] earthquake.

On the walls, floor, and ceiling of the room, streaks of golden runes suddenly appeared, wriggling as if squeezed out from the inside of the wall.

The holy golden light bloomed from the runes, covering everyone.

"Hurry up, I won't last long."

It was clearly a completely soundproof room, but a weak voice came from outside.

"Don't worry, it will be soon."

The maid suddenly raised her left hand.
