The villainous prince who bullied Feng Aotian was actually myself.

"Hai... Hai Rou'er."

Helena was still somewhat shaken, and she clung to Hazel, who was closest to her, like a frightened fawn.

After a while, Helena was able to recount what she had seen in her dream.

"This ice cave is not simple."

Ella looked around the cave with a serious expression, and finally her gaze fell on the burning fire.

Following Ella, everyone's eyes were drawn to her, but even with her spiritual vision activated, Helena still couldn't detect anything unusual.

However, Ella's face suddenly turned pale.

"Ella, you saw it? Helena said so?"

Maisie hid behind Ella, somewhat frightened.

"There are evil spirits here."

Ella replied, "But thankfully, they only look terrifying; they're actually pitifully weak."

As she finished speaking, Ella whispered a spell, and the creatures that Helena had seen earlier reappeared.

However, this time they were trapped in the fire circle by Ella, which restricted their movement.

“Tell me, how many years have you been dead?”

Ella said calmly.

After some interrogation and discussion, Helena and the others understood what was going on.

Inside this ice cave, an evil ritual was once performed, and these poor souls were the sacrifices. The ritual was performed by a cult called the Light and Shadow Society, which was skilled in using black magic and attempted to resurrect a terrifying being. The organization was mainly composed of Fchester people, and their accents sounded like those of Guberlan.

This ritual took place fifty years ago, and these guys have been dead for fifty years. Because the ritual failed, they can only be imprisoned here forever unless someone destroys the ritual's eye.

"Destroy the sacrificial eye?"

Guided by the evil spirits, Helena and the others found a wooden box frozen inside the ice.

"They have been contaminated."

Ella cautioned, "What the evil spirit says isn't very credible. This might be some kind of seal, and if we break it, we might be cursed."

"Yes, curiosity is not a good thing in the field of occultism."

Hazel suddenly realized something and immediately grabbed Helena.

"That's right. Let the Empire handle this. We shouldn't meddle."

Helena clapped her hands, giving up on approaching the wooden box.

At this moment, the evil spirits suddenly went berserk.

However, due to their limited strength, they were unable to escape Ella's ring of fire.

Ignoring the evil spirits' foul language, Helena and the others left as dawn broke.

It's not that they're heartless, but their current situation really makes it difficult to gamble.

In the realm of mystery, evil spirits always like to feign pitifulness, exploiting human compassion to bewitch them into breaking their seals or performing strange rituals. As a result, the kind-hearted human either dies suddenly or is possessed by the evil spirit, and in any case, they never have a good ending.

After the blizzard stopped, Maisie quickly found her bearings, planned her route, and then Helena and the others quickened their pace, moving forward as fast as possible.

"Ella, do you have any summoned beasts?"

On the way, Helena suddenly spoke up.

"some."

Ella was puzzled.

“I think this matter is not simple, and it is necessary to talk to Leon about it.”

Helena looked worried.

While reading Leon's diary, she remembered that Leon had written that his teacher, Bancroft, was actually a madman who secretly worshipped black magic.

If the evil spirits weren't feigning helplessness, and what they said was indeed true, then...

"I also think I should explain this to my father."

Heyzo also stated.

"okay."

Ella nodded slightly, and then she began the summoning.

A moment later, an adorable plush teddy bear with eerie blue flames on its body appeared out of thin air.

The teddy bear walked with a stiff gait, but its large, brown eyes were bright and alert...

Late at night, Leon, as usual, suffered from insomnia again.

He sat alone in the study, lost in thought, like a statue.

Suddenly, the appearance of a plush teddy bear startled Leon.

However, upon seeing the envelope held in the bear's paw, Leon immediately realized what was going on.

The little bear placed the envelope on the ground and disappeared without a sound, just as it had come.

Leon picked up the envelope and quickly tore it open.

Unfolding the letter, one finds lines of beautiful and elegant Fitchman writing.

The letter was from Helena.

Chapter Ninety-One: You Unfilial Son!

The Light and Shadow Society mentioned in Helena's letter is something that Leon, who has watched the original anime, knows what it is.

In fact, the mastermind behind this Light and Shadow Society is none other than his mentor, Bancroft.

Since Leon is currently unable to establish contact with the spirit world, even if he were to write a reply to Helena, it wouldn't reach her, so there's no need to reply.

Although the information provided by Helena's letter was not very useful to Leon, it at least let him know that Helena and the others were safe and sound.

That's enough, I've achieved my goal.

Therefore, Leon leisurely spent the remaining days.

Saturday, November 19th (François calendar).

The weather is nice today; the chilly and gloomy weather of the past few days has dissipated in Guberland, and the temperature is starting to rise.

Just like the first day, the morning breeze gently lifted the curtains.

Leon stood in front of the full-length mirror in the room, looking at himself in the mirror, his feelings were very complicated.

He was wearing a thin white undershirt and carrying an expensive black suit made of high-quality materials.

"Your Highness Leon, shall we help you?"

Lucy and Anne, standing behind Leon, said in unison.

"No need, you two can leave."

Leon smiled slightly and declined.

As Lucy and Anne left Leon's room, they saw Hebrew leaning against the corridor railing at the doorway.

When Hebrew saw Anne, who had failed in her attempt to assault her, he didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he put on what he thought was a very cool pose and winked at Lucy next to Anne.

This made Lucy feel disgusted, so she pulled Anne along and quickened her pace.

"Ever since His Majesty returned to the palace last night, the atmosphere has been strange."

After walking quite a distance, Anne whispered to Lucy.

"I think His Highness Leon might be in trouble."

Lucy responded softly.

"Anne, let's figure out a way to escape from the palace."

Lucy suddenly leaned close to Anne's ear and whispered something in a very soft voice.

"Where can we go? No! We should be asking how we can escape!"

This idea was dangerous, Anne thought, somewhat stunned.

"Well... there's always a way. We have to escape. If Prince Leon falls from power, then you and I will be violated by these perverts in the palace sooner or later."

Lucy was also in a bit of a dilemma.

"Your Highness Leon, how are you feeling?"

As soon as Leon stepped out of his formal attire, he saw Hebrew's detestable face.

"Don't worry, I will never live a worse life than you."

After saying something sarcastic, Leon quickly walked towards the stairwell.

"Tsk, Leon, we were pretty close in high school, and so were Arthur and Raymond. What exactly caused us to drift further and further apart?"

Hebrew followed closely behind Leon, laughing.

"I was too young and ignorant during middle school, and I didn't know what a tomboy was."

Leon had no intention of giving Heber a friendly look.

"Ha, Leon, I hope you can stay this proud forever."

The Hebrews showed no concern whatsoever for Leon's sarcasm.

“Hiss, Hebrew, you really are like a mangy dog.”

After Leon finished speaking, he ignored Hebrew. After saying several words, Hebrew realized that Leon had not responded and, having made a fool of himself, stopped talking.

Soon, Leon arrived at the western part of the palace.

"Good morning, Your Majesty."

As soon as they stepped through the gates of the West Palace, they bumped into Leon and Hawkeye.

Last night, Caesar and his men returned to the capital.

This morning, the front page of all the newspapers, including the Guberland Gazette, the Fitcher Central Gazette, and the Guberland Morning Gazette, was the end of the Battle of the Coral Sea and the formal exit of the Kingdom of Neberg from the historical stage.

There are also numerous experts, professors, and all sorts of authoritative academics who have made analytical reports on the great significance of this victory and the future changes in the world situation.

"morning."

Leon responded.

"Brother, I wish you good luck."

Leon smiled slightly, revealing a smile that seemed genuinely kind.

"Thank you."

Leon gave a perfunctory smile, then bypassed Leon and continued on his way.

Hebrew didn't follow them; instead, she struck up a conversation with Leon.

Because continuing down that path is pointless for her.

Leon's next stop was Caesar's office.

When he got to the office, Leon hesitated for a moment.

After taking a deep breath, I finally knocked on the door.

After receiving permission, Leon entered the office.

"Father."

Upon entering the room, Leon quickly bowed to the figure behind the desk.

The man sitting behind the desk was none other than Julius Caesar.

Caesar wore a simple brown-grey shirt and a long tie, his face, with its strong lines and sharp angles, remained remarkably calm.

Nevertheless, Leon could still clearly feel the immense pressure.

Back when he was on Earth, Leon had developed a fondness for the majesty of emperors while studying the story of Jing Ke's assassination attempt on the King of Qin.
