Talk about a pure love in the illustrated book world

She could indeed predict that her behavior would definitely make him dissatisfied, but she also did not expect that Maltz would actually go so far as to assassinate him.

"Ah........"

Even with those sharp swords pointing at his neck, he still had a sneer on his face, looking at Candice with a gloomy face full of resentment.

And the next second, blood overflowed from his mouth, and his face suddenly became ferocious, and he fell straight to the ground under their astonished gazes.

"He killed himself!"

One of the guards said to them after squatting down to check his body.

"Suicide...it's actually suicide...."

"You actually hate the third princess to such an extent..."

The surrounding guards couldn't help showing unacceptable expressions on their faces, and began to discuss in a low voice.

After being silent for a while, Candice gently made a blessing gesture towards the corpse that fell in front of her, and then said to the surrounding guards.

"Bury him. After I go back, I will take the initiative to tell his family."

"Uh, yes!"

As if they didn't expect Candice to bury him, the guards nodded after being stunned, and began to move Maltz's body in a hurry.

And Candice looked at Neil and bowed slightly to him.

"I'm very sorry, Neil, because of my previous influence, I let you see this unpleasant scene."

"It's okay, do you need our help?"

Neil also waved his hand, and after glancing at their hurried looks, he asked.

"This is the trouble caused by us, and it even affected you. It's already rude enough. It's really unreasonable to ask you to help."

"Please wait a moment, I promise that nothing like this will happen again in the next journey."

Seeing Candice's stern expression, Neil also shrugged and didn't insist.

"Okay then, I'll go back to bed first."

He waved his hand and let the guards on his side return to the carriage, leaving only her and the guards under him.

Seeing Neil leave the space for her, Candice also showed a grateful smile on her face.

"Thank you."

Neil didn't speak, but waved his hand again, signaling her not to care, and walked straight back into the carriage.

After the others left, Candice's complexion also turned cold, looking at the busy guards, she spoke slowly.

"Everyone, after processing Maltz's body, quickly gather in front of me."

"This is an order from the royal family of Rescateje and the saint of the order. If there is the slightest negligence, you will be killed."

——————————————————————————————————————————

"It looks like there will be a few fewer people tonight."

Seeing Neil who closed the door tightly, Euphemia couldn't help asking curiously.

"Are you sure that with Candice's character, those people will really kill those people?"

"No matter how kind she is, she is also the princess of a big country. She still has this determination."

After stretching, Neil also sat on the soft chair and spoke.

"Especially when this kind of scene is being staged in front of friends who may heal her sister, she knows which side is more important to her."

After thinking about it, Euphemia also nodded, leaned on his shoulder, and asked.

"Besides, you just locked him for so long, didn't you find anything?"

"It seems that the concentration of those people is higher than I imagined."

Neil sighed and said helplessly.

"I suspect that he was used as a gun, but no matter what those people say when the weapon malfunctions, it is impossible for them to have no reaction..."

"Unless...he is not from the same group as those people."

"Not the same dial?"

Euphemia raised her eyebrows and asked Neil to wave his hand.

"It's just a conjecture. After all, even if it's really not the same call, it's impossible for you to go to Candice's door with a knife when you go to bed at night. It's impossible for you to have no reaction at all. After all, you are a spy. It's better to sleep so soundly at night." Go back and sell sweet potatoes."

"Of course, the possibility of being a double agent is not ruled out, but it just happened to be intercepted by us."

"In any case, it's appropriate for these people to think that it's not good for Candice."

He sighed and said slowly.

And the two fell into silence at the same time, thinking about what happened just now.

A small note came from outside their window, and Euphemia took it into her hand. After reading it, she frowned and handed it to Neil.

"The news from Regina, that person is using a weapon made of demon silver."

"Devil Realm Silver?"

Neil's face suddenly became surprised, and then he frowned like her.

"You think he's a spy from the devil world?"

Hearing Euphemia's question, Neil shook his head.

"It's not like, if it's really them, there's no need to be so troublesome at all. You can wear a necklace while Candice is sleeping, or even imagine it in a dream. What's the point of arguing with Litton and attacking him secretly in the middle of the night? Suicide later?"

"But the silver weapon of the demon world is not something that normal people can get casually, right?"

After thinking about it, Neil murmured.

"If Candice was deliberately turned into a monster, and then used to attack the royal family... No, even if the Ron family is to take the blame..."

The previous quarrel was just to attract attention with personal grievances when the final mission failed?

"Don't think too much, everything now is just our inference."

Seeing Neil frowning tightly, Euphemia also held his hand and said.

"After collecting other more accurate information, let's discuss it carefully. If the thinking is wrong, it will be more troublesome."

"makes sense......"

He sighed, leaned lightly on the backrest, and subconsciously pulled Euphemia into his arms with both hands.

Considering that there are so many people outside, they didn't do anything that was beneficial to their physical and mental health, but just quietly enjoyed the feeling of interdependence.

————————————————————————————————————————————

As the guards left the dense jungle, the forest regained its original silence.

In the dark night, only the rustling sound of leaves being blown by the wind echoed in this deserted space.

Until the clouds floating in the sky obscured the moonlight, this area fell into a deeper darkness.

And a figure also appeared at the edge bit by bit, looking at the several mounds piled up on the open space there, scratching his head helplessly.

It seems that His Royal Highness Candice is still hard-hearted and has to do it...

Although he was still very happy that the strategy was half successfully achieved, but it would still be difficult to dig out the feigned Maltz from so many mounds of soil.

Fortunately, the gang of guards buried them far away for the sake of concealing people's eyes and ears and guilty conscience. Even if he made a lot of noise, it would not affect His Royal Highness Candice at all.

Is this also in the plan of the princess...

With the night wind blowing, he couldn't help thinking with some emotion.

However, Her Highness Candice is still not cruel enough. Originally, in his estimation, there should be more people buried here.

But in that case, it would not be Her Royal Highness Candice's character.

He sighed, and pulled out the shovel on his back, and began to dig out those mounds one by one.

The strange feeling of digging up corpses alone in the wilderness made him feel a little panicked. After digging out a few corpses and burying them again, he temporarily put down the shovel and rubbed his arms a little.

"Lord God, these are sinful people. I'm not blaspheming the dead..."

He murmured softly to strengthen himself, and after taking a breath, he resumed his work.

click......

Suddenly, a small sound that didn't match the surrounding environment entered his ears, making his body stiffen immediately, and he turned his head quickly.

After carefully looking around, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Illusion..."

Ka Ka Ka ————

However, as if deliberately threatening him, the rustling sound began to mix with the rustling of the surrounding leaves, making him cover his mouth subconsciously, so he didn't let out a scream.

But even so, his body also trembled violently, looking in horror at the monsters that gradually appeared from the trees and jungle around him.

"what......"

"The smell of death..."

"Smells so good..."

"How...how is it possible...so many undead monsters...."

His frightened and weak body supported the shovel on the ground, so he didn't fall down directly.

But before he recovered from the panic, those monsters had already surrounded him.

With such a large number, I can't win by myself......

run...have to run...or else...

When he couldn't even save himself, he didn't care to go to Maltz who was still in suspended animation. Holding the shovel, he rushed towards one of the areas that seemed to be relatively weak, waving his hands The shovel in the middle swung towards the skeleton.

However, before the iron tool in his hand hit it, the sudden sense of restraint from his feet made him fall to the ground, and the shovel came out of his hand and fell to the ground with a bang.

He looked back in a daze, a skeleton crawled out of the soil was grabbing his ankle, looking at him longingly, the naked body also pressed him down, running little by little up.

"Stop ummmmm—"

Before he could finish speaking, those soft lips pressed against him tightly, connecting with the emerging body and pressing him down to the ground.

And in his gaze, many undead raced away one of the mounds and rushed up desperately.

Afterwards, his sight was covered by the pretty face in front of him that was full of blush and excitement.

The unconscious voices from the monsters made this untouched area lively.

And on the branch not far away, Grace watched this scene quietly, as if he had also become a part of the tree, without making any movement.

It wasn't until the undead seemed to have sensed his presence and started to raise their heads to look at him that they disappeared from there like a breeze.

"If I'm not mistaken, what Maltz took should be the gray death mushroom or Hull's secret medicine."

After waking up the next day, Grace found Neil, found a relatively secluded place, and told him what happened in the wild last night.

At this time, the two of them also hid behind a carriage, and began to analyze the situation last night bit by bit.

Neil, who probably knew what that person took last night, leaned on the carriage, and after thinking for a while, he asked Grace.

"Didn't you fish out the man who sneaked over to carry the corpse yesterday and ask him something?"

Facing his question, Grace also shook his head and replied.

"There is a spell on his body. Although I'm not sure which one it is, I didn't do it just to be on the safe side."

"Okay, forget it..."

After hearing what Grace said, Neil sighed, and continued to speak.

"But according to what you said, that guy didn't expect such a situation at all, right? Then it seems that they are not with the monsters."
