Although Claire had lost her magic power and fighting spirit, the spiritual power that had invaded her body somehow replaced these powers and began to operate smoothly within her body.

——Even Karin, who can manipulate spiritual energy, couldn't figure out what was going on, and Zhu Ying couldn't analyze the exact reason.

Although there are foreign enemies at hand, Keliya has no time to care about this matter, but she is actually very anxious about the lack of combat effectiveness.

However, before she could come up with a safer solution, an unexpected enemy suddenly broke in.

"Nice to meet you again, Princess. I have always wanted to see you."

"……How will you be here?"

Mudd, a scholar from the Star Seeking Group who had met Claire once in Duke Booker's mansion, suddenly broke into Claire's room for some reason.

At this moment, he was holding a dagger in his hand, and it looked as if he had bad intentions.

"There's no need to ask such questions anymore, Princess. Please listen carefully now... [I am your companion]."

"Huh? What are you talking about—"

"【I need your help, don't ask any questions, just follow me】."

The handsome Mulder uttered confusing sentences, and his tone was like an intimate call, which made people think of their family or partner.

——But Claire just felt confused.

"I'm sorry, I don't think I understand what you are saying."

"【Look into my eyes and obey my request】... hm?"

Staring at Claire's golden eyes, a bright purple light flashed in Mud's gray-black eyes.

However, Her Royal Highness the Princess seemed to feel nothing and still had an expression as if she had no idea what was going on.

Why didn't my ability take effect?

"Oh... I see. You are planning to use some kind of mind control ability on me, right?"

"What, you actually..."

"I'm sorry, but my husband has suffered from this dirty trick before, so I have taken some precautions in this regard."

As long as you know how this magic or ability works, you can take defensive measures in advance.

Moreover, Keliya was carrying protective gear specially made by Jiangyue, so ordinary mental interference had almost no effect at all.

According to previous tests, only Aarons' level of mental power can break through the protection of the item - and this level of mental power is not something that just anyone can have.

At least the Mulder standing in front of her now was completely incomparable to Aarons.

"You want me to abandon my husband and embrace someone else? Dream on!"

"That's amazing... but you can't use any magic in this environment!"

Because the ability he was so proud of did not work, this originally gentle and peaceful scholar suddenly became angry and embarrassed.

He raised the dagger in his hand and swung it a few times at Klia, who was sitting on the chair without any fear at all, as if to show his strength.

And Claire just shrugged her shoulders and looked like "I'm waiting for you to continue the performance."

"If you just listen to me... you won't have to suffer!"

"I am a little curious... What do you plan to ask me to do, you hypocritical fellow?"

Because it was quite noisy outside and he was angry because his abilities were despised, Mulder didn't notice that the door behind him had quietly opened a crack.

But Klia clearly saw who was standing outside the door at this time.

"Heh, originally you could have gained supreme glory without knowing anything... but now you no longer have that chance!"

Mudd, looking crazy, raised the dagger clumsily and stabbed directly at Claire's body.

He had never practiced any martial arts and was not familiar with combat. The reason why he dared to attack Claire directly was simply because he relied on the weapon in his hand and the mercenaries guarding the gate outside.

He thought that Claire couldn't resist at all now... As long as she was hit by his sword, that disgusting and arrogant expression would completely disappear.

"Forget it if you can't find out... I'll leave it to you, Sister Xia Ye!"

"As you command, Your Highness Princess."

After receiving the order, the beautiful Aries kicked open the door and rushed into the room at incredible speed.

Without hesitation, she reached out and grabbed the head of the man with his back to her, while her other hand stabbed the man's lower back.

Before the other party could react, Xia Ye's right hand forcibly grabbed the back of the scholar's head, while her left hand forcibly pierced the defenseless body, ruthlessly cutting off the man's fragile lumbar vertebrae.

"——Give me everything!"

Even if the environment is full of spiritual power, the demon's innate skills will not be affected in any way.

Under Xia Ye's cruel [Soul-stealing], the star-seeking scholar, who was originally furious, instantly turned into a foolish expression.

When he began to roll his eyes, Aries with an expressionless face withdrew his left hand and made a throat-cutting gesture on his neck.

——So, this star-seeker, whose only decent appearance was acceptable, lost his precious life.

"This guy went crazy so fast that I didn't have time to fully retrieve his memory."

"Huh... I didn't expect to meet someone with psychic abilities here. It's really scary."

"His ability is called [Charm], which can make people feel good about him unconditionally. Duke Booker seems to have been affected to some extent, but it's not too obvious."

Such ability is indeed too insidious.

As long as you spend some time with him, your spirit will be polluted imperceptibly. Even if he does not have any other powers, this ability can make it easy for him to obtain incredible benefits.

"Also, the Star Seeking Brigade he belongs to...is trying to trigger a psychic explosion in the empire in order to stimulate the awakening of the Star Child."

"What?! They're planning to do something like this in the Empire?!"

"This memory also shows that...if this Mr. Mudd fails, his companions will implement a backup plan in the Imperial Capital."

These people actually have a backup plan? !

Keliya immediately realized what was going to happen soon—this group of bastards, more vicious than the mercenaries, actually planned to use the entire imperial capital as sacrifices!

"No, we have to stop them!"

"Your Highness, if we want to stop those people from detonating the imperial capital, the most important thing we should do now is to complete the plan for Mr. Mudd."

"……what?"

——This is not only the devil’s inhumane suggestion, but also the optimal solution to this big problem.

"We can find a way to cause a self-destruction on the enemy's head - this will not only prevent the group of outsiders from attacking the imperial capital, but also eliminate our opponents."

This idea is indeed somewhat irresistible.
