“Shut your eyes!”

“They’ll take management of you if you happen to look into them!”

“No matter you do, don’t look!”

Yelena went previous the individuals who have been shouting with their eyes shut. She regarded down as she clung to the wall.

‘There it’s.’

Among the many black demons, she may see a creature with piercing purple eyes.

Anybody who met its eyes misplaced their wits and have been manipulated to assault their allies.

Aside from one particular person: Yelena.

Yelena threw the spear that had been in her hand after feeding it divine energy.

Whip!

The spear, solely half the size of an everyday spear, flew precisely towards its goal and pierced the enemy’s coronary heart. Then, as if it had a thoughts of its personal, it returned to Yelena’s hand.

“The duchess has performed away with the purple eyes!”

“Wow!”

Amidst the cheers, Yelena simply barely managed to maintain from sinking down, forcing herself to remain standing. Her legs shook and her thoughts was clean as if her blood wasn’t circulating correctly.

‘I solely used this relic as soon as…’

Prior to now, she had been ready to make use of relics at the least twice, thrice even, relying on the relic. However she was already exhausted from one use.

Yelena clenched her enamel. The second she did, she heard somebody shouting.

“It’s a flying monster!”

Yelena turned her head, following the sound. Her expression darkened. Flying within the sky, was a gaggle of about 10 demons of a brand new species.

“Madam, please head inside.”

“We’ll deal with this.”

The three knights surrounded Yelena, as if to protect her.

Yelena nodded her head compliantly. She had nearly no power left in her physique. She was in all probability about to faint. She would solely get in the way in which if she have been to remain.

Simply as Yelena circled to flee from the fortress, a demon that was wandering within the air flew in the direction of her.

“…!”

Max rushed to boost his sword.

At that second.

Hrrrrip!

The demon burst into flames in entrance of everybody.

“Yelena! Are you okay?” A well-recognized voice requested.

Yelena blinked her widened eyes.

The one who had out of the blue burnt the demon to a crisp was somebody she knew too properly.

“Aendy?”

“You’re not damage, are you?”

Aendydn studied Yelena as he stood in entrance of her. He waved his hand. Then, a couple of extra demons that have been hovering overhead caught on hearth as properly.

Yelena stared blankly at Aendydn.

“Whew, you look secure. However why are you so pale?”

“Aendy, how did you…”

“I got here for you.”

“You got here for me?”

“Sure. I’m sorry I’m late. I used to be evacuating my household… I may have come sooner.”

That wasn’t the issue.

“How do you know?” Yelena requested.

“What?”

“How do you know I used to be right here? You couldn’t have probably recognized I used to be right here…”

“Did you neglect? I’ve Sylphie.”

Sylphie was the identify of the wind spirit.

“Sylphie can go wherever there may be wind. With Sylphie’s assist, finding you is a chunk of ca—”

“Aendy!”

Yelena grabbed Aendydn.

Her coronary heart was racing like loopy.

A miracle. A miracle had appeared earlier than her.

In that second, Yelena’s thoughts was stuffed to the brim with the picture of the particular person she longed to see essentially the most. Her eyes welled with tears, however she managed to struggle them.

Tears welled up, however I managed to suppress my feelings.

Yelena regarded into Aendydn’s eyes and opened her mouth.

“Assist me out.”

***

Nowadays, the  coronary heart of the youngest son of Rely Penelle, Noenza Penelle, raced tremendously. All due to one particular person.

‘The duchess.’

No.

‘…Yelena.’

When he had first seen Yelena, he thought his coronary heart had stopped as a result of she was so stunning.

Silver hair that fell prefer it was woven with moonlight. Damp pink eyes that have been crammed with the breath of spring.

Noenza had realized it the second he met her eyes. That she was his best sort that he dreamt of his entire life.

‘I fell in love at first sight.’

He gazed out the window with a distant look. His cheeks have been tinted pink. However the pleasure of affection shortly sank all the way down to the ground.

‘I can’t relay my emotions anyway…’

Yelena, who had stolen his coronary heart, was already married to a different man, a duke, no much less. Noenza Penelle, the mere son of a depend, was no match for him.

‘Tch.’

Noenza sighed, his chin resting on his arms that have been propped up on the windowsill.

“Haa.”

Then, he out of the blue widened his eyes that had been lowered sadly.

“Wait a minute.”

He had a startling concept.

‘Her husband, Duke Mayhard, went off to warfare, didn’t he?’

And now, there was a monster invasion coming from all sides.

‘…He may very well be useless.’

The battlefield was harmful sufficient in itself. However what if monsters have been to look in such a spot?

‘Sure, he should be useless!’

It was a merciless thought, however the man was truthfully extra prone to be useless than alive.

Noenza’s face brightened. His coronary heart thumped quickly inside his chest.

‘Th-this is not any time for this.’

Noenza scrambled away from the window.

‘I must win the duchess… no, Yelena’s favor.’
