Chapter 351 : Elucia's Resolve
"Next, we will interrupt with a special broadcast... A temporary detention personnel escape incident occurred today at the police station in the central district of Insolania. We have currently dispatched police officers for support. Citizens need not worry..."
Such an announcement came from the radio.
But Zhou Mixue didn't feel reassured at all, instead becoming even more nervous... it seemed Insolania wasn't peaceful either.
While Zhou Mixue was worrying on one side, Zhou Suling on the other side was about to cry.
"Woo woo... sister, everyone still hasn't come back. Should I... return this slime track?"
"Suling?"
"Anyway, everyone already doesn't like me anymore..."
"Don't be so self-defeating. Oh right... maybe Lonis and the others didn't come back because they were chasing escaped criminals."
"Eh?"
"Because the situation was urgent and they didn't have time to explain. This kind of situation is possible too, right?"
"Mm..."
"So let's also do what we need to do. Oh right... Dean Cuibia said there are some supplies to put on the ship. Let's go handle the handover together."

Meanwhile, on the other side.
Originally, Elucia and Princess Sethilu were staying in the cage, thinking of countermeasures to escape.
But suddenly, the scheming girl's body trembled and she knelt on the ground.
"Elucia, what's wrong?"
"No, something's wrong... that Lonis guy is being tormented by someone."
"What?!"
"Sethilu, the jailers in your Bright Ember Kingdom should all be normal people, right? There shouldn't be any psychologically twisted beasts, right?"
"Ah, uh?!"
Sethilu's eyes widened. Bright Ember Kingdom had always been very strict about the construction of law enforcement units.
Jailers not only needed professional qualifications but also had to pass a series of psychological tests to be competent... so theoretically, there shouldn't be any accidents.
But... just in case.
Just like how pure organizations also have scum, some well-disguised beasts in human clothing could also enter the police system.
"I can't guarantee it... Elucia, what happened to Lonis?"
"Lonis should have been raped by someone."
"Wh-what?!"
"I can sense Lonis's emotions, and her emotions are very anxious now—that instantaneous pain was even more intense than when I first took away her purity."
"How could this happen?!"
"If it's not that her chastity was taken by a stranger, then she was dismembered by someone... that kind of pain, I would never mistake it!"
"This... I understand!"
Sethilu also understood the seriousness of the situation. Without a word, she walked to the bars and tried to break the fence.
Although these metal bars were very sturdy, before long, Sethilu had forcibly broken them open... the silver-haired princess looked serious and said earnestly: "Senior Elucia, if this is true, I will definitely root out those vermin!"
"Mm, but just that is completely insufficient."
"Eh?"
"If a man really violated Lonis, I'll skin him, chop up his limbs, and make him wail in a cesspit for seven days and seven nights without dying."
Elucia's pupils had completely darkened.
Elucia's mood at this time was very regretful.
Although this stupid maid was somewhat perverted, she shouldn't have locked her in someone else's prison to be disposed of by others.
But regret was too late now.
She had to quickly find Lonis and rescue her!
And just then...
Elucia heard shouting.
......
"The escaped convicts are over there, quickly, don't let them get away."
"Use tear gas, quickly force them out."
......
Upon hearing this voice, Elucia immediately rushed over.
And the closer she got to Lonis, the more Elucia could feel that longing in her heart... afraid of being caught, afraid of being exposed, afraid of being alone.
She wanted to see herself, she wanted to come to her side, she wanted to act spoiled in her arms.
So...
With dark eyes, Elucia came to where the voice was. And the scene that met her eyes made this scheming girl furious.
She saw that Lonis's shirt front was covered with sticky saliva stains.
And more crucially... the girl's white stockings had also been stained yellow. What kind of liquid that was naturally went without saying.
She hadn't protected this stupid maid properly.
She had personally pushed this fool into the abyss.
Then...
"Go die."
......

......
(How is it possible, Elucia... how could she be in prison?)
The moment she saw the black-haired girl appear from the depths of the prison, Lonis stood there dumbfounded.
But just in the next instant, Lonis discovered that killing intent was floating around Elucia—this murderous intent was so substantial that even the surrounding air seemed to become several degrees colder.
What happened?
Was Elucia angry about me breaking out of prison?
Just as Lonis was about to open her mouth to ask, she found that the world around her had been completely covered by darkness.
It was as if everything had lost color, all matter had decomposed into the most primitive quarks. For a moment, Lonis couldn't even see the flashlight's light, and felt her body seemed freed from gravity's constraints.
But...
This discomfort only lasted an instant.
When the darkness dispersed and vision was restored... those jailers who had chased after them had all fallen unconscious on the ground.
And that black-haired girl with flowing hair who had dominated everything was slowly walking toward her.
"E-Elucia?"
"Lonis, I'm sorry..."
"Ah?!"
"I failed to protect you properly. Really, I'm very sorry..."
After saying this, Elucia collapsed exhausted on the ground.
......
......
"Elucia!"
Lonis ran forward and embraced Elucia.
And at this moment, this silver-haired girl finally realized... that Elucia's body was actually so light.
Clearly she usually acted very arrogant, and even when tied up by her, glared at her viciously.
But when Elucia fainted?
Lonis realized that the girl was actually so delicate and weak.
She slept quietly, her flawless profile covered with sweat from fatigue.
Her ink-like hair slid down the girl's shoulders, and those eyebrows that would always furrow in daily life had completely relaxed.
......
"Lonis, Elucia collapsed from overusing her magic power."
"Eh?"
"We can't let down her intentions. You all hide behind me."
"Princess Sethilu?"
"I understand. This incident... isn't testing Candel at all, is it? It's testing me... even if I'm ruined, even if the princess's identity is stained, I must protect everyone!"
Having made up her mind, the princess charged forward toward the door without hesitation.
