Chapter 689 Villains and Heroes

In the suburbs of the capital of the Black Feather Kingdom, Silver Gauze Manor.

"Hmm... what's wrong with me?"

In the gorgeous castle bedroom, sunlight shone in from the stone-carved arched window, reflecting a faint golden halo on the white cloud stone floor, illuminating the eyelids of the blonde girl lying on the bed like a sleeping beauty.

Her eyebrows moved slightly, and the sleeping Princess Paola moaned and woke up faintly.

What she saw was the inside of a wooden four-poster bed, with curtains decorated with star ornaments hanging on the edge of the bed, and a soft pink quilt covering her body.

The elegant fragrance of silver snowflakes entered her nose, giving her the illusion that she woke up in her bedroom for a moment.

But the next moment, she immediately remembered what happened before, and her heart was instantly lifted, and her sleepiness disappeared.

Before that, Paola took her trusted maid and hid her identity to the agreed contact point, preparing to contact the rebels secretly, when she was suddenly attacked by an unidentified spellcaster.

The maid who protected her was hit by the enemy's spell, and her life or death was unknown. She also fell into the enemy's illusion.

Looking at the quilt covering her body, some bad thoughts suddenly flashed through Paola's mind. She lifted the quilt with force, and then found with a little relief that her clothes had not been touched, but some magic accessories had been taken away.

Slowly sitting up, Paola was about to get out of bed, but at this time, a severe dizziness came from her head, causing her white arms that supported her body to be unstable, and she fell on the bed again powerlessly.

At this time, she noticed that her mental power was almost exhausted, and the remaining trace was not even enough to support her to release a first-level spell.

After confirming her condition, Paola gritted her teeth and endured the heavy feeling of her brain as if it was filled with lead blocks. She tried to make herself sit on the carved wooden headboard and slowly enter a meditative state, hoping to recover some mental power as soon as possible.

However, it seemed that the sound of her getting up was a little louder, and outside the bedroom door, there was a sudden sound of approaching footsteps.

This startled Paola, and she immediately exited her meditation state and stared at the door vigilantly.

After a moment, the carved door opened silently, and the figure of Prince Altmer in a white dress with blond hair emerged from the dark corridor behind the door, reflected in the little princess's slightly contracted fruit green eyes.

Unlike her weak power, Prince Paola is one of the few princes who truly holds real power, and his own talent is also the most outstanding among many princes. He is regarded by many nobles of the kingdom as a candidate for the next King of Black Feather.

"Brother Altmer... did you save me?"

Countless complicated thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant, and Paola pretended to be weak and spoke in a low voice.

No matter what the situation is, her safety is undoubtedly in the hands of Prince Altmer. Now she can only use words to let him let down his guard against her as much as possible.

As the youngest princess, although Princess Paola is talented, her own strength is far from comparable to that of other princes and princesses. It's just that she is very favored by King Black Feather, so her life is acceptable.

But recently, the health of the old King Hei Yu, who always loved her, has become worse and worse, and he can't even stay awake for long every day.

Many princes and princesses are busy contacting the nobles of the kingdom and competing for power in order to sit on that position. At this time, no one will care about the disappearance of a little princess, and they can even avoid the trouble of doing it themselves.

"Well... yes, my sister, I did save you."

A strange look flashed in his eyes, and Prince Ao Temo nodded slightly, looking at Paola curled up in the bed, with no expression of joy or anger.

"Thank you for your help, Brother Ao Temo, I feel a little unwell, can you please take me back?"

Carefully watching the prince's expression, Paola tentatively spoke.

"Why are you in a hurry to go back, dear Paola?"

However, as her heart sank slightly, Prince Ao Temo shook his head and dissuaded her with "good intentions".

"My manor still has enough empty rooms, and your current condition is very bad. If you leave like this, you may encounter danger again. It's better to stay here and wait until your body recovers before leaving."

"Sorry, I just remembered that there are still some things in my laboratory that need to be dealt with."

Gritting her teeth, Paola used the little mental power that she barely recovered and forced herself to get out of bed and leave.

However, Prince Altmer in a white dress with blond hair suddenly approached slowly and forced the girl back to bed.

"Brother, please respect yourself."

As Altmer's breath gradually approached, Paola whispered a warning, trying to make an inviolable posture, but her slightly trembling body betrayed her true emotions.

"Why are you afraid, my dear sister? No matter what time it is, I will never hurt you."

Looking at Princess Paola curled up at the head of the bed, Prince Altmer suddenly reached out and pinched the girl's chin, forcing her panicked green eyes to look at him.

"Do you remember, when you were little, you played behind me, and promised me with your innocent and lovely look that you would become my bride when you grow up."

Staring at Paola's slightly pale cheeks, Prince Altmer's pair of fruit green eyes, which were the same as Paola's, were filled with burning desire that almost turned into a substantial flame.

As he spoke, he aimed at the girl's pink lips and tried to kiss her hard.

"Hmm...!"

But at the moment when their lips touched, the prince groaned as if he had been electrocuted, and threw Paola back to the bed. He was bitten by the girl desperately.

"You...are fine."

He touched his lips with his index finger, and looked at the blood on the white gloves. Ao Temo's eyes flashed with anger, and he was about to do something further.

But at this time, a token on his waist suddenly lit up.

"We have arrived, so early?"

Sensing the change of the token, the prince was slightly stunned. He remembered that when Landon received the news, he should still be in the empire.

"Curious about what happened?"

Glancing at Paola's expression, Ao Temo suddenly smiled at her gloomily.

"Don't worry, I'm just helping you solve a little 'little trouble' that is bothering you."

As he said, in the panic eyes of Paola who suddenly thought of something, the prince strode away, leaving only a gloomy word echoing in the room.

"No one can take you away from me, not even the bastard of the rebels!"

After the prince left, sensing the aura of the protective magic circle around the room, Paola closed her eyes, flashing through her mind the gentleness of Prince Altmer when he was a child, and now he seemed to be always gloomy, and a tear could not help but flow silently.

.

….….

"It's here, the place mentioned in the secret letter."

On the other side, with the help of the secret method taught to him by the Dark Crow, Landon rushed to the exchange location on the letter, the Silver Yarn Lake near the capital of the Black Feather Kingdom.

According to the instructions on the letter, Landon input a trace of his mental power into the second pillar on the left side of a stone pavilion by the lake.

With the injection of mental power, a hidden rune flashed.

The next moment, the ground in the center of the pavilion suddenly cracked, and a light gray stone platform emerged, on which was placed a black magic-repelling alloy box, a roll of parchment, and an earring.

Landon's expression changed slightly. He had recognized that the earring was the one that Paola always wore.
