Denis pursues Sayn by following a trail of magic left behind by the man. But it was difficult for Denis to detect it because the man played him by moving around in many places in just a minute. Veins of annoyance appeared in his head, he was really annoyed. Until he finally crossed the royal backyard and saw two human body figures lying on the ground.
Denis gasped in shock and approached the two figures. They were two women and Denis knew one of them. It was Vivian, the daughter of Marquis Zent and also her best friend Eva. Denis is very familiar with this girl because Vivian always tailed near Eva. While the other girl, Denis did not know him too well even though his face looks very familiar. Denis doesn't know Wiya, a servant from the Duke's house even though he has visited the Duke's residence several times.
Denis checked Vivian's condition and gasped in shock again. "He almost died". He took out a healing potion and drank it directly onto Vivian's lips.
"Uhuk! Uhuk!" Vivian coughed up blood.
But his pale body condition returned to normal. The wounds on his stomach also slowly recovered. But the internal injuries in his organs took quite a long time to recover and he had to get regular treatment.
Vivian thought she was going to die. He hopes to meet his mother if she dies. But he slowly opened his eyes and he saw the figure of the man in front of him. But his vision blurred so he did not recognize the figure. He only opened his eyes for a second and fainted again.
Denis checked the other figure. And he sighed in relief because the woman just fainted. He immediately took the two of them to the royal clinic to get treatment. Actually he was a little annoyed that his pursuit mission was interrupted due to this. But he also could not let them be in a dying state in this place. And maybe, if she was late to see them for a few seconds, Vivian wouldn't be alive because her injuries were really severe.
Denis had no idea why the two of them could end up in such a state. He would ask them when the condition of the kingdom was already conducive. The current state of the kingdom is completely chaotic. Denis shook his head, frustrated.

The king looked at Diana with narrowed eyes. He was serious about his threat. And he looked at the King hatefully while gritting his teeth. Now, he really hated being weak. He really hated being so weak ever since he was born. Although her mother, her husband and daughter were very reliable. He is just a burden to them.
Diana still remembers, she begged Emerta and Ren to teach her magic. But both men refused. They say he was born with the condition of not being able to learn magic. All because of his extremely weak physical condition. Emerta thinks that this is a side effect of babies born from artificial humans. Emerta also felt guilty. But she could do nothing about Diana's physical condition.
"I won't ask any more" the King broke Diana's daydream. "Tell me all the information you know. Then I won't touch your family.
Diana was weak. "I'm not a spy." he said in a weak tone. Then he began to look at his past. That his mother was a dark wizard and how was his first encounter with Enell. She also tells how Enell took her and married her. He only told her his life story, but he didn't say anything about Ren. It was as if the dark elf had disappeared from his life.
BRACKET! The king stood up and struck a chair nearby. "Enough!" he shouted in anger. "Do you think I'm here to hear a romantic story?" He was really upset that Diana was still lying to him and telling him useless stories.
"Are you recording the words?" The king glanced at the witch beside him. "Because he really doesn't want to confess. We'll bring the baby here and tomorrow we'll run a public execution"
"King.." The witch wanted to say something but the King immediately cut her off.
"King.." the purifier said again in a squeaking voice.
This time the king heard him and muttered annoyedly "What?"
"He didn't lie." said the witch later.
"Huh?" The king was confused.
The witch showed me the magic tool she had in her hand. It was a magic tool to detect lies and they always used it when they wanted to interrogate criminals. But, from the beginning, this tool did not show any reaction at all as long as Diana spoke. Which meant Diana was not lying at all.
They also brought the device while interrogating Duke. But the device did not react. But the King assumed the tool did not react because the Duke always dodged to provide information. And the Duke knows absolutely nothing.
"This tool does not react at all. The woman did not lie" the witch said again. The witch wanted to tell the King, but she was frightened to see the King getting more emotional. But he finally dared to say it.
The king who was already emotional and angry had completely forgotten about the magic tool. He really did not know why he felt angry when he saw the Duke and his wife. He can always analyze a situation very rationally. But for some reason now the logic is completely retarded.
"Are you a spy?" The king asked again.
"Not" Diana replied weakly.
The magic tool did not react. King dazed. He's really confused right now. He really did not know why he had lost his passion.
"But you're a dark witch." the king muttered.
"yes" replied Diana. And the magic tool reacted immediately. The king and everyone were shocked. "But I'm not a spy." continued Diana.
The king looked at Diana and frowned. What Diana said is true. That she was married to Duke just because they were in love with each other, didn't she really make a mistake this time? He should have made sure that they were not spies from the beginning with that magic tool. But why would he be affected by the Marquis's ascension and act so arrogantly?
The king felt his head break now. Diana is a dark wizard. It doesn't fall into his logic that there are good dark witches. They were all demons and criminals who wanted to destroy this world. Even gods confirmed their existence as evil existences.
"Emmm, here.." The king wanted to say something to Diana but suddenly, BAM! The prison wall behind them shattered and two black-robed people appeared.
"Protect King!" the witches and warriors immediately protected the King behind them.
