章 78: Chapter78-A Changing World

"Kill her!" 

The Knight Commander suddenly stood up. 

Despite struggling to accept the reality of the Emperor's deal with the dark god, his abundant battle experience kept him rational. 

Killing Daphne to prevent Nyx's descent was their only chance of survival.

"Kill her! Quick!"

"Damn beastfolk! We must kill her, we can't let the dark god descend!"

"She must have bewitched the Emperor, we need to kill her first!"

"..."

The other dignitaries around also shouted in unison. 

They commanded all their guards to slay Daphne. Lina and Flora hesitated, but Lina, acting on instinct, raised her sword. 

Flora bit her lower lip; if Nyx truly was to descend, killing Daphne would also mean liberating her.

Alan stood in front of Daphne, scanning the surroundings, then declared, "If anyone dares to harm her, even the gods will not agree!"

After uttering these words, he looked up at the starry sky.
