I was completely absorbed in my thoughts on the matter. But then a maid knocked on my door. When I glanced at her, I noticed it was Kazian, the one who couldn't speak. She walked carefully inside the room. She appeared to be a little worried about something. The tary was placed on the table by her. I was staring at her with such sharpness. Is she the one who came to my room last night? I stopped her as she was ready to leave after placing the platter down.

"Hold on, "I said.

"Monsters are attacking northern territory, and they can't handle them," he remarked sternly. "My lord," Yean said, "doesn't it seem like monsters are breaking our control by the day?" "Yes, and it appears they genuinely want to take the world in their hands," Beneth said. Yean gave Beneth a warning glance to warn him not to say things like this. Beneth tried to smile and dropped his gaze as soon as he spotted him. Wyiner was looking over the report but didn't respond to any of the

    Elizabeth and I mounted the horse and began to explore the tiny village. Elizabeth began to tour me around and tell me about her neighbors. I became aware of this. People were staring at Elizabeth with a strange expression on their faces. As soon as I saw what was going on, I drew my cloak over my face and said, "Elizabeth, don't take off your cloak." "All right, Maxilin," she murmured as she drew her cloak down a little. "Elizabeth, do you know where the church is?" I asked. "Yeah, I went there once. But it's been so long because my father refused to take me there, "she retorted.I smiled and asked, "So, Elizabeth, why did you stop me from opening the window last night?"

    That old guy caressed Elizabeth's head and murmured, "You are sweet Elizabeth." "How do you know my name, mister?" Elizabeth asked with a smile. "When you were a kid, you used to come with your dad," he remarked with a smile. "I remember," Elizabeth remarked, "I visited here before." "Would you like to plunge your sword into the water?" he said, looking at me. I took a hard look and carefully drew my sword from my sheath. He gazed at me after touching my sword. I saw that his face was gradually becoming paler. Is he in good condition? I was about to ask him a question, but Elizabeth was with us, so I couldn't. The water began to bubble as he plunged the sword. "What the hell?" I asked, my eyes narrowing. "What is going on here?" I questioned. Elizabeth clutched my cloak tightly in her grip. She became a bit frightened. However, it stopped bubbling after a minute and the water turned black. "What is it?" I said, attempting to draw my sword but being stopped by that man. "Don't take it o

I got up and put on my coat. He asked, "Are you going somewhere uncle?" I stepped out of the chamber, carrying my sword sheath. Evan was following me as well. "What's the matter, uncle?" Evan asked. "Evan," I said, "I think I need to travel to the northern side." Evan asked, "northern side?" "Yes, I didn't tell you about it because of your illness," I said. Evan came to a halt there. I returned his stare."Uncle, are you playing cold with me?" Evan asked. "What are you saying?" I said, my eyes narrowing. "So, uncle, why didn't you inform me about this?" "Am I now truly unworthy?" Evan asked. "Evan, you're misunderstanding me right now," I murmured as I approached him. "Then why didn't you say something to me?" Evan remarked, "You didn't even tell me where Max is, and now you're going on a dangerous mi

    Elizabeth and I were on our way up. I noticed that everyone was going and locking their doors. "Maxilin," Elizabeth said, "everyone is going back home." "Yes, but don't worry." "We're also close to home," I said. "I am not afraid, Maxilin," she murmured, looking up at me. "I'm only worried about you," she said. Hearing her, I smiled and responded, "Why are you worried?" "What if that monster shows up and scares you?" she asked. "Oh yes. You are exactly right. Then I have to speed up, "I said, holding the reins and speeding up." "Don't be frightened, Maxilin," Elizabeth urged while riding. "I'll keep you safe from the monster." With a smile, she stated. My heart skipped a beat when I heard her voice, "Don't be frightened, Maxilin. I'll protect you from the monster." My mother used to say things to me like this. But now I don't have someone who can tell me that. I took a deep breath and tightened my grip on the rope, speeding up my horse.The opposing viewpoint.A vase smashed on the gr

Elizabeth had fallen asleep on his shoulder. She dozed off while riding the horse.Maxilin’s Aside.I knocked on the door. Mr. Alex opened the front door and said, "Where have you gone?" I narrowed my eyes to see him that way. He was enraged, but more importantly, he was nervous. I said, "Mr. Alex, I simply went around to look." I shifted my gaze away from him. I noticed Kazia, who appeared nervous and afraid. I also saw the other maid, who was looking down. She didn't even give us a glance. I shifted my focus to Kazia. I think she was scolded because of me. "Mr. Alex, may I come in?" I said, taking a big breath. He didn't respond and walked away. I entered with a grimace. I walked to Kazia and handed her Elizabeth. But when I got closer to Kazia, I realized the other maid had only moved a bit. After

    "You jerk, Maxilin." He rushed his horse up to me and yelled, "I will shred your bones." I pushed back the horse's head as I struck with the pommel. The hot breath of the horse struck my face. "You shouldn't have made this mistake," I calmly said, as I lifted my gaze. "I hope you don't beg for mercy after this."As I said, I used a reversed grip on the ricasso to give back the force. As a result of the force, Nuckelavee took a step back. I took advantage of the opportunity. I took the holy water and loosened the cap off the bottle. Before he could understand what I was doing, I hurled the bottle at the horse. Then I shattered the bottle."neigh," "neigh," "neigh..."That began to groan and then knelt.

Maxilin got the feeling in the snowfall as well. The scenery was covered with beautiful snow. It appeared to be quite lovely. Elizabeth spoke out abruptly, "Maxilin, where are we going?" "We're heading to a new house," Maxilin responded with a smile.Elizabeth's heart was beaming with happiness. She finally came out after a long time. Look at this young child, though; she did not mention her father. Was she willing to accept everything? Didn't such heinous acts leave a mark on her heart? She was simply conversing with everyone as usual. Didn't she miss her father?Or did God truly give this kid the ability to control her emotions? She was just six years old at the time, so why was she having to deal with such terrible things? While glancing at Elizabeth, Maxilin pondered. When he glimpsed Elizabeth, he took a big brea

Elizabeth had no one. Alex also stated something to Maxilin before his death, and he was considering it right now.[Flashback]Maxilin thus approached him and moved closer to his face to hear what he had to say. Alex opened his mouth to speak out. Maxilin lowered his head and made a timid motion.“Max, find the six ge-ms of the sw-ord. It’s your path to save your-self and take care of Eliza-,“ Alex stated while gripping Maxilin’s hand firmly.Alex exhaled and uttered an agonizing tone.He couldn’t finish his words correctly before he finally let out his last gasp of oxygen, and everything came to a complete end.

    Elizabeth referred to the creature as her father. As soon as I heard her, I put my sword down. When it heard Elizabeth, the creature let out a groan. Elizabeth: Is that you, father? [The creature groans] Kazia moved slowly in our way. “Does it hurt you, father?” Elizabeth asked again. Tears streamed from the monster’s eyes. “Elizabeth, he’s no longer your father,” I said quietly. I’m feeling guilty. What if Elizabeth said I killed her father? What do I say at that point? “No, Maxilin, he is my father. I recognized him,” Elizabeth responded calmly. Her tone startled me when I heard it. How is she able to be so calmed down? I had no choice but to do this. Her father had already passed away; it is against the law for a person who has died to remain on earth. The devil had simply imprisoned Mr. Alex’s soul here, and his soul needed to be freed, or else things would be more difficult. Even those demons made connections with Elizabeth’s soul. But God help this little girl. I made a

    Back to Alex’s home.In the midst of a storm, Kazia returned home with a doctor. As she walked in, she noticed that the main entrance had been unlocked and that no one was there. She noticed a bloodstain on the floor that was leading to the lounge-room. She ran inside, where she spotted Elizabeth on the stairway. While waiting for Kazia, Elizabeth fell asleep.Kazia gently shook Elizabeth to rouse her awake. “You have come back,” Elizabeth muttered as she rubbed her eyes. “You know, father went to his room and refused to let me follow him.”As soon as Kazia heard her, she ran upstairs.

    Evil Elizabeth got quieter over time, and her eyes returned to normal. She gave one last look at Maxilin before slowly closing her eyes and falling into Maxilin’s arms. I had caught up with her. The dark veins in her face began to vanish. Kazia approached them gently and kneeled beside them. Maxilin took her in his arms and carried her neatly to the bed. He sat her down on the bed and gently stroked her head. He was staring at her sweet, innocent features. But then he questioned, "Kazia, you did know there was anything wrong with the maid?" I didn’t hear her say anything in response to my question. Her lack of responsiveness is to blame for the current situation. "Kazia, tell me the truth," I said again, taking a quick breath. I turned my attention to her, but she was staring at the ground. After a little while, she tilted her head and gave a small nod. She grabbed a quill and a piece of paper with her. She took a seat in the chair and began writing everything down. Kazia handed m

    The room began to shake violently, rattling every corner of the chamber and its contents. During this time, the wicked Elizabeth screamed. All the glasses broke in a flash as she screamed. Maxilin tapped his brow with his index finger. He formed a cross and touched it with his forehead.On the other hand, wicked Elizabeth began to laugh and slowly approach him. “Maxi, you can’t do anything.” “I’ll take what I’ve got,” she responded, chuckling. Maxilin snapped open his eyes and stared up at her. Elizabeth offered him a creepy smile, and as she smiled, a strong breeze began to swing. “I won’t let you win, max,” she snarled, and Maxilin felt a great force on his chest that knocked him out of the circle in an instant.‘ahhhh’..Maxilin smashed into a wooden cabinet.Maxilin’s aside.Damn it. I touched my chest. She is, nonetheless, a formidable opponent. I really must know her name. Otherwise, this spirit will devastate everything. She’s already gotten a lot of power from this. She had sp
