Chapter 476 The duke’s visit (17)

After the barrier appeared, there was a powerful sensation that came from it. It was a powerful source of magic energy that was far stronger than the spells that were coming at Cecilia.

When these spells slammed into the barrier, they were scattered in an instant.

They weren't even able to make a single dent in the barrier before being scattered away into magic energy.

It seemed that this barrier was on a completely different level.

The cloaked figures were shocked when they saw this, but they quickly came back to their senses and wanted to throw out another round of spells.

It was just too bad that the knights and elves behind them had already caught up to them and were pinning them to the ground. The knights jumped them while the elves shot arrows into the robes, pinning them in place.

Just like this, all of the cloaked figures were caught.

Cecilia looked at the cloaked figure in front of her who had put up this shield.

At first, she didn't recognize this cloaked figure, but then she slowly recognized who it was.

It was Shadow Five who had followed Zwein back on the order of the fourth prince to protect him.

After coming back, she had put on her cloak again even though the fourth prince had given her the order to take it off. It was what she was used to wearing, so Zwein had given her permission to do so.

After recognizing her, Cecilia said, "Thank you."

Shadow Five looked at her before saying in a calm voice, "I was ordered to do it."

She didn't have any emotions in her voice as if she didn't care about anything other than her orders.

Cecilia revealed an awkward look when she heard this, but since Shadow Five didn't want to say anything, she didn't force her to say anything.

She turned to look at the cloaked figures that were captured and asked her knights standing over them, "Is that all of them?"

The knights turned to look at her and confirmed that it was indeed all of them.

It was only then that Cecilia turned in a different direction and said, "It's clear, you can come out now."

There was what seemed to be a distortion in space before several figures came out.

It was me and the ducal family with a few knights guarding us.

The moment that we appeared, the cloaked figures looked up at us with visible shock. Though we couldn't see their faces, it was clear that they were shocked based on their body language.

After all, as far as they knew, we should have been burnt to a crisp when the carriage had been set ablaze.

But in reality, the carriage was nothing more than a bait.

The only things that had been inside were a few dummies with magic crystals in them to simulate living creatures. So the only things that burnt down were just a few dummies.

After walking out, I narrowed my eyes to look at the cloaked figures.

I looked at them this way not because I was wondering who they were or who they worked for, but because I was wondering what I should do with them.

After all, I had made the promise to show mercy if I could…

So I was torn on just how to take care of these cloaked figures.

But before I could do anything, Moon suddenly came forward and pulled off their hoods.

I couldn't help slightly knitting my brows when I saw this.

After all, once their identities were exposed, then it would make it hard to show mercy.

But there was no stopping her since she already had her hand on the hoods.

I just gave a sigh and looked closely at who these cloaked figures were.

They were elves as expected, but they weren't any elves that I recognized.

I turned to look at Moon and she also shook her head to show that she didn't recognize them either.

Then that meant that they weren't from the group that had come from the capital.

Before we left, Moon had made sure to memorize the faces of all the elves that were in the village so she could identify them if we were attacked. However, it didn't seem like any of these elves were from that group.

They must be from another group that they had kept hidden all this time.

It really was strange, they even kept another group hidden from the elven village who should have been their comrades. Was this a sign that they didn't trust them or was there something else?

Since Moon had already pulled off their hoods and revealed their faces, then there was no need to hesitate anymore.

I should do what I can to get information from them or else this might repeat itself.

If I could get some information to make the other side back down now, that was the best case scenario.

But either way…these elves had to be buried or else it would be very bad.

Moon took the initiative to ask, "Who are you?"

But none of the elves even looked at her when she asked this question.

All of them were either looking at me or looking around as if they were trying to find a way to escape.

Moon naturally saw this as well and was about to go forward to stop them.

But before anyone could react, one of the elves suddenly broke free of their ropes and started charging at me. As they charged at me, there was a green energy that appeared around them that seemed to make them go even faster.

No one was able to react in time to stop that elf from charging at me

In his hand, I could see that there was a shiny glint…

It was a knife that he had hidden away!
