Female Knight Simulator, I am full of righteousness!

Loria's voice faltered.

She recalled her experience in the simulation. Even if she could meet the people in charge of the empire, would they believe what she said?

She was a nobody, just a lowly knight, and those people might even think she was a spy sent by the head of the secret organization.

How to do?

Loria was restless.

At this moment, Vita's attention was entirely on her.

That's why neither of them noticed that the president had secretly come to the vicinity.

Isolated Island Nation: 19. The Sword Saint Legacy of the Guild Master's Family [Two-in-One]

President Adeline arrived very quickly.

After recovering from the outburst, she first checked on her father and the others, then immediately chased after Loria, who had been "captured."

When she got closer, she realized that the situation was a little different from what she had imagined.

"Vita?"

Looking at that familiar face, Adeline's expression gradually became serious.

Vita is a member of the Hidden Leaders, and her presence here means that the Hidden Leaders have infiltrated her neighborhood, which inevitably makes her uneasy.

But what made her even more uneasy was Vita's attire.

She remembered very clearly that the clothes Vita was wearing had appeared on Loria before.

Of course, this alone cannot lead to the conclusion that Vita wore Loria's clothes.

But a closer look reveals that Vita's chest and abdomen are bound very tightly, revealing a breathtaking allure in the contrast between restraint and perky curves.

Without a doubt, the clothes belong to Loria. Because Loria is smaller than Vita, her clothes would create this kind of erotic effect when Vita wore them.

It's hard.

Adeline's grip on the knight's sword hardened.

"Why are you wearing Loria's clothes? You must have coerced Loria!"

She wanted to rush out and stab Vita with her sword to prevent Loria from being harmed by Vita, but in the end she managed to control herself.

Because she heard Vita saying something terrible.

"Enka Stone?"

I'd heard about Adeline from her tutor.

The emperor who founded the empire distributed the Stone of Enka to four meritorious officials who were highly skilled in magic for safekeeping.

He did this to prevent anyone in the royal family from being bewitched by evil spirits and using the Enka Stone to break the seal without authorization.

Whether the emperor's actions were more harmful than beneficial or more beneficial than harmful is hard to say, but over the years, the empire has never been in trouble because of the Enka Stone, so many people have even forgotten about its existence.

Little did anyone expect that the true purpose of the Hidden Leader was to collect the Enka Stone to break the seal.

Adeline thought Loria was right. The imperial high command would definitely not think of this for the time being, so the chances of the Hidden Leader succeeding were very high.

What would happen to the world if they were allowed to break the seal?

She can only find the answer in history.

Before the establishment of the Oder Empire, the Holy Lorenzo Empire dominated the continent.

The empire's last emperor, in order to ensure his family's long-term rule over the vast empire, made a decision that violated ancestral precepts—

Introduce external resources!

He traded his heart to the demon, promising it an inexhaustible supply of flesh and blood, thus gaining a terrifying Scourge army.

He attempted to use this legion to sweep through the unwilling member states within the Empire, but he completely underestimated the Scourge's ambition and the determination of those who wanted to defend their homeland.

The war ended with the emperor being devoured by a demon and the establishment of the Oder Empire.

The ambitious man is dead, but unfortunately, the wounds he inflicted on the world took decades to heal.

If the seal on the Ruins is broken this time, the resulting disaster will likely far surpass that one.

"They must be stopped."

Adeline immediately thought of Earl Norton.

That guy is all bark and no bite. He lacks the talent of his ancestors, yet he always dreams of restoring the family's glory. But when faced with a real problem, he often hesitates and misses opportunities.

Once such a person is targeted by the Hidden Leader, there is absolutely no way he can protect the Enka Stone.

"First, take control of Vita, and then..."

Adeline made a move to walk out of her hiding place.

But then Vita suddenly spoke up: "You should leave here as soon as possible."

"?"

Loria shook her head: "I can't leave now. You borrowed the Weaver's power, so it's impossible that there are no aftereffects. I need to confirm the aftereffects first."

Vita said, "It's no use even if you confirm it. Let me tell you the truth: the so-called aftereffect is that I will slowly turn into the Weaver's stage puppet, which is something that cannot be reversed by human power."

She felt it; a pain surged from deep within her body, a pain she couldn't bear. She didn't want to show her pain in front of Loria.

Loria said, "No..."

Vita interrupted her, "Instead of worrying about me, you should go back and check on Adeline. Adeline suddenly unleashed that level of power; the trouble she's in is probably no less than mine. If you keep wasting time here, you might not even get to see her one last time."

Damn it, who are you cursing?

The president, who was eavesdropping from the side, frowned even more deeply.

Loria's reaction was also quite intense.

Upon hearing that she might not be able to see the president one last time, she turned to leave, but soon stopped and looked back at Vita.

"You... this, this, and this, I'll give them all to you."

She suddenly pulled a bunch of recovery potions from her inventory and stuffed them all into Vita's arms.

After stuffing it in, Loria still felt it wasn't enough.

She wasn't ignorant; in fact, she understood very well.

If she ran away now, even if Vita didn't say anything, she would definitely feel resentful.

But she had no choice but to leave. Just like Vita said, something must have happened to the president as well.

"How about this, you come back with me, I'll change your clothes, give you a new hairstyle, and do your makeup. We'll just say I found you on the roadside, that way they won't suspect you're the attacker."

Vita shook her head: "Let's go, don't worry about me."

Sometimes, it's impossible to have the best of both worlds.

She has always been a person who is more rational than emotional.

Knowing this perfectly well, she didn't blame Loria. It was Adeline who had always been by Loria's side, while she was just a passerby. Although she had been by Loria's side time and time again, she was ultimately just a passerby.

Loria stared blankly at Vita.

Raindrops fell on Vita's forehead, and the shimmering water held a beauty that was hard to define, whether it was melancholic or something else entirely.

Let's go.

Standing here indefinitely is not going to solve anything.

Not long after Loria walked away, Vita plopped down on a rock, her face instantly turning deathly pale, as if she had been powdered.

"Huff, huff~"

Vita pressed her hand to her chest, her breathing becoming rapid and uncontrollable.

The pain had begun to spread, gradually pushing her to her limits.

After that limit was broken, she lay on her side on the rock, unconsciously gripping her arm tightly with her sharp nails.

The fingernail dug into the flesh, and fresh blood rolled down the wound.

In a daze, Vita noticed the spider silk that had entered her body was slowly spreading.

The spider silk will eventually form the shape of a spider, and finally pull her consciousness into the spider abyss, making her a part of the spider.

But before she saw the spider, Vita saw a sword.

"Ding."

The sword pierced the stone.

A moment later, a woman bent down and squatted down.

A familiar face appeared before her eyes, and Vita recognized it—it was clearly Adeline.

"you……"

She wanted to ask something, but the pain completely overwhelmed her ability to speak normally; all that came out of her mouth were painful groans.

Adeline pushed Vita's hand away to prevent her nails from digging into the flesh of her arm.

At this moment, her face was expressionless, revealing no emotion whatsoever, but her heart was filled with a faint joy.

Despite her hesitation, Loria prioritized her safety above all else.

It was precisely because she was in such a good mood that she stepped forward to help Vita.

"Don't move."

Adeline gently touched the wound on Vita's arm and then gave her some painkillers.

"I'm not good at treating patients, this is all I can do for you."

Vita was still rolling on the ground, offering no response.

Adeline didn't care. She opened a large umbrella over Vita's head to shield her from the rain, then took off Vita's clothes that belonged to Loria and put on her clothes.

She reached out to throw Loria's clothes, but pulled her hand back halfway.

"Never mind, I'll keep it as a souvenir."
