Chapter 347 Chapter 340 His Majesty the Seventh Emperor
Mira gradually opened her eyes.

The familiar ceiling came into view, and she patted the quilt on her body to confirm that her body was still in the room.

Mira sat up from the bed, rubbed her forehead, looked to the front of the bed, and was startled.

I saw a person dressed as a night watchman kneeling on the ground. He was already bleeding from all seven orifices, and he showed infinite horror before dying. His expression was almost exactly the same as that of a priest. White gas came out from under his clothes, as if he had been corroded.

The night watchman had already died violently, just like the priest, he was also killed by backlash.

Mira saw the pried open window, she jumped out of bed and saw the ritual circle at the foot of the bed.

"No wonder... my consciousness was drawn there..."

Mila suddenly realized, and then frowned.

The night watchman broke into his bedroom at night, and then set up a magic circle to lead his soul to the nameless catacomb.

Combining the previous events, Mira finally understood that there was an inner ghost among the night watchmen of the church.

Why did the night watchman come in?

Mira looked at the pried open window, lost in thought.

After a while, she stopped hesitating, stepped out of the room, and knocked hard on Ainos' door.

"It's getting late, Mira..."

Before the princess finished speaking, Mira raised her feet, covered Enos's mouth with one hand, and pushed her into the room with the other.

After closing the door, Mira opened the window and checked again. She recited the ancient sayings in a low voice, and after realizing that no one was hiding nearby, she turned her head to look at Enos.

"Enos, someone broke into my room."

Mira lowered her voice as much as possible,
"And the night watchman."

Enos was startled, then narrowed her eyes,

"What happened, Mira?"

Mira leaned close to Ainos's ear and told the story in a low voice.

She concealed some key points, such as the surrender of those cultists and the black mist that feared themselves. In her story, it was just that the priest died because of the backlash of the ritual by accident.

Ainos bit her finger, she knew very well that this matter was not simple.

"Strange...why did the night watchman enter your room...was my father sent to guard us?"

Her Royal Highness lowered her head, doing analysis.

Mira raised her face and asked:
"Enos, your father...is there a problem?"

"No, maybe he doesn't know."

Enos shook her head and said in a low voice:

"I know my royal father. Maybe he thinks that the night watchmen are only infiltrated from the lower levels, but the higher levels are still absolutely loyal to him."

Mira nodded slightly, she felt that what Ainos said made sense.

The night watchman is loyal to the emperor and the church at the same time, and is not completely directly under the emperor. With the intertwined interests, the situation is often much more complicated than imagined.

"But no matter how you say it, you can't stay here anymore."

Enos stood up, she picked out her own clothes from the closet without delay,

"We leave immediately."

.......................................

What happened last night had a great impact on the two of them. A night watchman traitor broke into Mira's bedroom and attempted to sacrifice her. There are many mysteries behind this incident. The organization of the original church has infiltrated the entire empire through hundreds of years or even longer, and there is no absolutely safe place in Danscher.

Ainos and Mira went out at night, and the latter used old sayings to accurately detect the location of each night watchman. They wore black robes that blended into the night, precisely bypassed each night watchman, and slipped under their noses. out of this street.

The princess didn't know who was really trustworthy, and she carefully examined where the two of them would go next. After thinking about it for a while, she found that only Stephanie's house was the real place to go.

Qiancheng Academy has been granted various privileges by the emperors of all dynasties. No swords can be used there, and soldiers are not allowed to set foot in it.

To put it more figuratively, the wind can enter, the rain can enter, but the king cannot enter.

Stephanie was awakened by the knocking on the door of the two women. She looked at the princess and Mira who came to the door late at night in surprise, and Ainos led Mira into the room without any explanation.

"What's the matter with you? Isn't it a curfew? And it's the middle of the night, and the first cock crow hasn't arrived yet."

Stephanie's face was disturbed and tired.

"I can only make a long story short, Stephanie,"

Enos' behavior can be described as vigorous and resolute,
"A political enemy wants to kill me."

The princess's words were brief, and her unquestionable tone did not leave Stephanie room to refuse. Her eyes were like a torch, and although she was about the same height as Stephanie, she seemed to be looking down.

Stephanie was startled, she opened her mouth wide,
"What a surprise... But considering it's the Delosis family, it's not such a surprise..."

The hostess was not tired at all, she immediately cleaned up the bedroom of the guest room for the second daughter, and served them wine intimately.

Mira was about to raise her wine glass, but Ainos stopped her.

The princess untied the silver medal from her waist, soaked it in the wine for a while, and felt relieved after confirming that there was no problem.

Ainos raised her wine glass, took a sip,
"We're going to speed up our investigation."

Mira nodded and asked:
"Start with the stonemasons' guild?"

Enos did not deny,
"Yes, and we can only rely on ourselves... Whether it is the night watchman, or other families, or the church... none of them are absolutely credible."

Mira asked after hearing this:
"Even your father..."

"My royal father is the most believable among relatively believable people."

Enoss paused, and added:

"But not absolutely."

"Oh, I can understand you."

Mira said softly, and she also took a sip of wine.

After all, parents tend to be the most trustworthy people, generally speaking, because of the bond of blood between them.

"When I bleed,
My father also bleeds for me. "

Enos whispered softly,
"Also, my trust isn't just sentimental..."

Mira was a little taken aback.

Her Royal Highness looked at Mira, smiled and said:
"It's that my father and I stand on the interests of the family."

At this moment, Stephanie had already packed the guest room.

She came out sweating profusely, looked at Princess Enos, and asked directly:
"How long will you stay?"

"Quite a while, Stephanie."

Enos stood up and patted her shoulder,

"Don't let your maids know we're coming."

"I understand, I swear to your gods."

After speaking, Stephanie added:

"I also swear to the forest god I believe in, but you must make it up to me in the future, otherwise the sky will be struck by lightning."
