Witch

Luckily Evan believed Piwood's predictions about the attack. And now it was time for him to carry out the plan he had made with Piwood.

Before they go, check out. Evan asked Piwood to pick up Lucian and Lucia to come with them.

'I'm sure that among these attackers there will be a Clan much stronger than the Lamia Clan.' With that concern, Evan tried to minimize the situation that could make Darkness Castle lose.

On her way to almost reaching the Throne Room at the top of the Castle, Lucia looked breathless and a little happy that there was only one more floor until she would get the top floor.

"Just a little more..." Lucia, who hadn't slept all night, made her imagine herself lying on the Throne Seat. The most comfortable and soft place to sleep.

For a princess who had spent 760 years sitting in the Throne Room, it was very tiring because she had to walk to the top of the castle as high as 2 kilometers using stairs.

"Finally arrived!!" With a cheerful tone, Lucia opened the Throne Room Door. However, that little happiness instantly changed when she saw Piwood and Evan. They were already waiting for her in the throne room.

"Lucia! We have work, let's go!" without knowing how tired she was, Evan immediately asked her to go with him,

"EHHH!! I just wanted to rest." Lucia pouted because she had thought of lying down immediately.

"There are monsters that want to attack the Castle, you may sleep after successfully driving them away." Evan wouldn't let Lucia sleep until things were over.

Without waiting for Lucia's answer, Piwood immediately carried Lucia and put her on his left shoulder.

They also moved to the basement again to pick up Lucian.

*Dig* *Dig*

"Phew!! This is the last corpse!!" Lucian wiped the sweat from his forehead with a hand that was covered in dirt. 760 Years of being sealed made several parts of Lucian's body stiffen. Moreover, Evan asked him to dig a grave without using magic, which should have done the job instantly.

'Because of Lucia, my body was completely stiff from not moving while being sealed.' Lucian massaged some parts of his body that really felt cramped.

"Kukuku..."

But when he heard a familiar giggle, Lucian immediately turned around to see who was laughing at him.

"Kukuku, is your body too old for work Mr. Grave Digger?" Lucia really couldn't help but stir in herself to mock Lucian when she saw the boy massaging his own shoulders with his hands.

"Yes, my body became stiff because of you. If at that time I didn't lose, maybe I would seal you in that disgusting place!" Lucian wasn't so provoked by Lucia's taunts, but he certainly wouldn't calm down if he didn't reply to Lucia's insults.

"Yeah, it's certain that a bad person like you deserves to be sealed. How could I want to seal someone who didn't commit a crime!?" Turning her face away, Lucia mocked Lucian again.

"So you really forgot about it?! You Witch!" Lucian looked a little disappointed that Lucia had forgotten the reason they fought 760 years ago.

"W-witch!? What did you say-" Lucia was about to get off Piwood's shoulder because Lucian identified her as an old woman with white hair and a long nose. And, of course, Lucia didn't want to be a witch like that.

However, the intention that Lucia wanted to carry out was immediately stopped by Evan. "Could you two stop your fighting for a moment!? There's a problem outside, let's settle it first, then we'll talk later."

Evan tried to speak as softly as possible, and as he expected, the two of them fell silent and stopped hurling insults at each other.

After they calmed down, Evan asked Piwood to immediately give Lucian a black Royal Knight outfit. Lucian's body and clothes were already covered with dirt.

Lucian was surprised when he saw the clothes he received. "T-this outfit!!?"

"Since you're a part of Darkness Castle again, you have the right to wear that outfit again." Evan explained Lucian's confusion.

Even though it wasn't obvious, Lucian looked down while rubbing his eyes a few times. "Okay, I'll wear this outfit."

Despite hiding it, Evan could tell that Lucian was moved to see that his clothes were still well maintained.

Before Evan picked up Lucia, he asked Piwood to bring Lucian new clothes. 760 years sealed in the Abyss without a change of clothes, it should indeed be replaced by now.

The Royal Knight outfits that Piwood took were always cared for by Gerrow, so it was no wonder that they still looked brand new and shiny even though they were more than 760 years old.

Evan just smiled when he saw how happy Lucian was wearing the black Royal Knight outfit.
