Cecilia first read the news from Duke Bulwell.

"Dear Lord Finnian, may the Sun Goddess bless you. I have secretly probed the Duke's attitude towards the city of Aslade as you requested. The situation is a bit complicated. The Duke does not seem to intend to inquire about the affairs of the city of Aslade. In addition, he is deeply saddened by the accident at the Gold Mine Road, and he came to the church to worship, bless, and pray for this."

This news was neither good nor bad news for Cecilia.

At least for the time being, she didn't have to worry about Duke Bulwell stabbing her in the back.

There is a lot less pressure.

On the day when the city lord ordered the city to be closed, the knight was just stopped inside the city and was almost able to get out.

The knight was not one to give up easily. After learning about the situation in the city, he discovered that the princess was being arrested, and he felt something was wrong.

After some consideration, he decided to follow Her Royal Highness the Princess's arrangement and try to find a way out of the city.

I originally thought that once the knight left the city, he wouldn't meet anyone else until the giant settlement.

Not only did we meet a lot of people on the road, but they were all organized groups.

It's hard to ride a tiger.

The knight was faced with the choice of completing the princess's arrangement first, or following to find out whether this group of people was going to destroy the city.

Later he found that there was no need to hesitate, because the groups of people in front of him had almost the same destination as him.

The situation became clear at once.

Since they were all going to the giant tribe, the knight did not dare to delay and took a shortcut to quickly move towards the giant tribe.

No matter how hard the knight tried, he still couldn't catch up with the group of people.

When the knights arrived at the giant tribe, Delia and the giants were guarding outside the settlement, ready for battle.

The knight did not see Arnold, so he found a way to sneak behind the giants, found a giant, and explained the situation to him.

Upon hearing this, the giant looked the human up and down.

The knight had nothing to prove his identity, and he left so suddenly that the princess forgot to give him some tokens.

Fortunately, the giant finally walked to the front, said something to Delia, and then returned, "Please follow me."

Some of it went too smoothly.

The Knight was taken to Delia's house and stayed in the same room with Arnold.

Arnold did not ask the knight anything. Apart from politely pouring a glass of water for the knight, the two had no other communication.

After Delia came back, the knight explained the situation in the city again, "The city lord is sealing off the city under the pretext of arresting Her Royal Highness the Princess, but in fact he is planning to destroy the city."

Although Diliya found the destruction of the city a little unbelievable, the humans who came today did have bad intentions.

"I understand. I'll have people search the area. We giants are much more familiar with the terrain than humans are."

Thanks to the help of the giants, humans were settled in the front and the giants demolished it in the back.

The speed and efficiency were so fast that the knights suddenly felt at ease.

The giants dismantled the explosives and took them all back to the giant tribe.

What made the giants feel most disheartened was that those humans took advantage of the giants' unpreparedness at night and installed a whole circle of explosives near the giant tribe. The number of explosives was almost the same as what the giants had installed on the mountain in the past few days.

These days, the knight had no way to return to the city. Fortunately, the giants did not reject him because of what the people of Aslade had done, and they took him in to stay in their tribe.

He tried every possible way to find a solution and finally got the news from outside into the city.

Cecilia looked at the knight's report and found the situation to be not optimistic.

Ellal is really trying to stir up conflict between humans and other races.

Fortunately, the giants have not implicated all humans now, and it is not known whether the giants are helping themselves or humans now.

But in any case, the current situation is not the worst.

Valken has not shown up yet, and Cecilia doesn't know whether Valken's plan to call people has gone smoothly.

Cecilia looked at the time written in the knight's report. Humans had installed most of the explosives in the giant tribe the day before yesterday.

Does it mean that the city lord had originally planned to take action two days ago?

However, due to the destruction caused by the giants, it has never been successful.

This situation is not very good.

Just as Cecilia was thinking, Freya, dressed in gorgeous clothes, appeared in front of her.

She was sitting originally, and Freya stood in front of her, looking down at an ant. "I was wondering why we couldn't find you after searching the whole city for these days, but you were willing to do something to this face."

Freya pinched Cecilia's chin and said, "But what's the use of pretending to be ugly? I still found you, didn't I?"

Cecilia could no longer sense the black magic on Freya.

In other words, Freya was completely immersed in black magic.

Cecilia turned her head away and escaped from Freya's grip. "You are slower than I thought to find me."

She didn't think her little trick could delay the situation for long, but in fact it lasted much longer than she thought.

Freya's face changed drastically, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, she bared her teeth and claws, but did not cause any substantial harm to Cecilia herself.

After calming down, Freya looked around the hotel, which was not considered high-end. "You are willing to put yourself in such a difficult position just to avoid me. Who would believe it if someone told others that a princess would stay in such a shabby hotel?"

Since no knight or Celine came in for such a long time, Cecilia roughly guessed that Freya had probably taken over the entire inn.

She had made arrangements before that if any conflict occurred, the knights must not take action.

Cecilia's mind was racing with the possibilities of the present.

Finnian is still praying in the church, Valken's whereabouts are still unknown, and Delia outside is now able to maintain peace outside, which is already a great help to Cecilia.

Cecilia's silence made Freya punch the cotton. She found a place to sit down with a look of disgust on her face.

Whether it is the introduction of Freya in the system or the description of Freya in the original book, the other party should not be such a person.

Cecilia never doubted whether there was something wrong with the system. Facing Freya, who looked more like a princess than she did, Cecilia asked her first question, "Why do you think you are a princess?"

Freya seemed to have heard a joke, "I don't think I am a princess. I am a princess. You took my identity and replaced it. Now I am just taking it back."

Cecilia looked at Freya's face and Gallop's, "You said you are a princess, you have to show evidence, right?"
