Chapter 292: Chapter 195: The Long Overdue Complainant_3
Unfortunately, he didn’t know.
Sometimes when the divergence of the other party’s scenario received a significant boost, his own destiny trajectory would also shift accordingly.
Some things he never wanted to see, and some utterly unexpected events, absurdly and wonderfully happened.
…
Due to the different flow of time inside and outside the barrier, when Xiya arrived belatedly, he realized he was actually the first person to reach the scene.
For some reason, the Tomb of the Dead Silence, which had been tightly sealed just moments before, had now violently dissipated, leaving nothing but a dilapidated old factory and a ground full of gruesome corpses.
...
The scene before his eyes was extremely bloody and violent.
And because tonight’s noise was too great, the area near the old factory in the Lower City District had now gathered quite a crowd of onlookers.
His subordinates had already gone ahead to disperse the crowd and maintain stability, but only Xiya was there with furrowed brows, surveying the scene.
He was searching for Tiya.
However, to Xiya’s disappointment, he didn’t find her by the end.
Instead, among the bodies on the ground, he saw several painfully familiar figures.
For example, Casimo and Fourth Prince Joshua, among others.
At this thought, a huge shock surged through Xiya’s heart.

It seemed that tonight’s events would stir up a major storm throughout Glostit.
The King’s election had just officially started, and already a prince had dropped out in such a frustrating manner. Could there be some behind-the-scenes manipulation by some other princes or the Imperial Princess?
Xiya didn’t know and felt quite confused by not seeing Tiya.
Just then, he suddenly caught sight of a figure somewhat familiar, lying in a corner in the distance.
Louise?
As Tiya’s close friend, Xiya was naturally familiar with her.
He quickly stepped forward and poked her shoulder with the long sword at his waist.
“Uh…”
Moments later, Louise slowly woke up.
Upon seeing Xiya, an undisguised look of disgust appeared in her eyes, followed by her rubbing her somewhat swollen forehead.
For this man who had deceived her close friend, Louise naturally had no good feelings.
But now was not the time to criticize him.
Realizing the environment she was currently in, the still somewhat perplexed Louise seemed to suddenly realize something and her complexion turned deathly pale.
Seeing this, Xiya frowned and asked, “Did you remember something?”
“…No, nothing.”
Unexpectedly, Louise’s first reaction to everything that happened here was outright denial.
But her evasive gaze made it easy to tell that she was lying.
A wave of unexplained irritation rose in Xiya’s heart.
He took a deep breath, “Tell me, where is Tiya now?”
Upon hearing this, Louise’s body trembled slightly, but she still attempted to sound calm, “I…don’t know.”
“Clang!!!”
The sharp knight’s sword swiftly unsheathed, pressing against Louise’s neck.
Xiya’s expression was incredibly cold now, “I’m not joking around with you.”
The anxiety that wouldn’t go away made him desperately want to see Tiya.
And currently, she most likely had encountered some uncontrollable factors.
Otherwise, he couldn’t think of any reason why she would deliberately avoid him.
However, Louise was not one to be easily frightened.
Feeling the chilling sensation on her neck, she narrowed her eyes and slowly stood up, “I don’t know means I don’t know.”
“Moreover, I don’t ever recall the Silent Church having any subordinate relationship with your Military Department… Captain Xiya, in what capacity are you speaking to me now?”
The atmosphere suddenly became a bit tense.
After a moment, Xiya sheathed his sword, gave her a cold glance, and then left without looking back.
Watching his departing figure, Louise finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.
It wasn’t that she deliberately refused to speak.
But there was simply no way to speak it out.
After all, even Louise hadn’t expected her Holy Maiden to suddenly go crazy, attack the surviving Transcendents, and then escape the scene with Lynn.
Now thinking back, she finally understood just how outrageous and bold her friend’s actions had been.
She did it to prevent that man from being persecuted by the Imperial Council, choosing a dangerous path.
Seeing no hope of survival, Tiya had made such an impulsive move.
Rather than dying on a scaffold, she hoped that Lynn could live.
At least, she must take him to a temporarily safe place.
Yet, such an action was undoubtedly challenging the entire Empire.
Don’t get caught, Tiya.
Watching the pale full moon in the night sky, Louise prayed anxiously.
(ps: When everyone thought I wouldn’t update, I didn’t; isn’t that a form of commitment?)
