"This is …"
Walking on the road, looking at the situation in front of her, Elus could not help but feel a bad premonition.
Sensing this feeling, she could not help but feel her heart skip a beat, and she hurriedly walked forwards.
As she walked forward, the scene in front of her was revealed.
Outside the house, there were sealed openings everywhere.
The windowsill, the door, and other places were all sealed tightly.
At a glance, it looked like a large prison, but it was quite gloomy.
Looking at this scene, Aluise couldn't help but pause her footsteps. Then, she turned around and gazed at the old butler by the side.
Beside her, the old butler stood there quietly, his expression as respectful as ever.
At this moment, he sensed Elus's gaze and did not feel surprised at all. He turned around and smiled at her before saying softly, "Your Highness Elus, what is it?"
"What's going on here?"
Standing in place and looking at the situation outside the house, Elus took a deep breath and asked, "Why is this place like this?"
"This is a special request from Young Master Yardim …"
Standing in front of Elus, the old butler had a warm expression on his face and seemed to be very respectful towards Elus. At this moment, he softly said the reason, "Young Master Yardim feels that even though Miss Ella has offended him, she is still a lady of noble status."
"And people of noble status should not show their faces in public and interact with those lowly servants.
"So, Young Master Yardim specifically instructed us to seal all the exits in the room and leave Miss Ella alone in there."
"She's the only one left inside?"
Hearing this, Elus's expression became quite grim.
"That's right."
Standing in front of Elus, the old butler's expression was still respectful. He seemed to be very kind to Elus, as if he was looking at a noble person, "But, Your Highness, please put it down."
"Even though there are no servants serving her, there are still all sorts of things.
"Usually, there will be people coming here every day to give Miss Ella all sorts of things, so there will never be any empty spots …
"Apart from it being a bit quieter, there's nothing wrong with it.
"It's just that it's a bit quieter …"
Elus took a deep breath, feeling an inexplicable sense of foreboding.
Although it sounded very ordinary, the scene in front of them made them feel uneasy.
"Let's go in …"
In the end, she looked at the old butler and said, "Please help open this door."
Her expression was calm as she spoke softly.
"Yes."
Listening to Elux's words, the old butler smiled and nodded respectfully.
Following this, a few servants slowly walked up and opened the door in front of them.
The chains were quickly untied.
Just these chains alone numbered at least four or five.
Following this, the door also opened.
Elus casually took a look, and then her body couldn't help but freeze.
On the open door, there was a clear bloodstain.
The bloodstains had already dried up, and there were even scratches on them. They seemed to have been caused by the people inside, desperately trying to get out. That was why they were in such a state.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Elus had a bad premonition.
As she got closer, a foul smell wafted out.
This smell was mixed with all sorts of indescribable stenches. It was mixed with the stench of blood and all sorts of other foul smells. It was the kind of smell that came together.
It was quite unbearable.
Smelling this smell, Elus instinctively took a few steps back, not daring to walk in.
In front of her, as the door opened, the scene inside was revealed.
There was nothing in the room.
Other than a bed and the remains of some food, there was only a figure sitting there alone.
The figure was sitting there, leaning against a wall. Her clothes were tattered and gave off a foul smell, as well as the smell of blood.
At this moment, as she sensed the light shining from the outside world, she slowly turned around and looked outside.
In the next moment, she seemed to sense something, and her body immediately moved as if she had gone crazy, rushing outside.
"Let me out!"
She screamed, desperately trying to get out.
Under the clear light outside, Elus could clearly see this person's appearance.
It was none other than Ella.
However, compared to the past, Ella's appearance had changed greatly.
In the past, even though Ella was arrogant, her appearance was not bad. Even compared to Elus, she was only slightly inferior.
However, the current Ella looked incredibly wretched.
Her expression was incredibly dull, and it gradually became twisted and crazy. Her entire body was covered in blood, as if she had gone crazy.
She no longer looked as charming as she had in the past.
Looking at Ella in front of her, Elus instinctively took a few steps back, her heart palpitating.
In front of her, Ella was struggling, trying her best to get out.
However, the old butler seemed extremely calm, and he silently waved his hand to stop Ella.
Evidently, even though it could not be seen normally, the old butler's strength was quite great.
At the very least, Ella definitely could not compare to him.
She was directly grabbed by the old butler's hand, unable to move at all.
But even so, she was still struggling and refused to stop.
"Ella …"
Looking at the situation in front of her, Elus deeply breathed in and walked up to stop them.
The movements in front of her became calm.
As if hearing Elus's voice, Ella's movements stopped. She slowly turned around and looked in Elus's direction.
Finally, she looked at Elus, and her eyes seemed to be filled with life again.
"Elus?"
Her face was blank as she finally opened her mouth and said Elux's name.
"It's me."
Looking at Ella, Elus let out a deep sigh, then nodded and said, "It's okay."
Don't be afraid …
"Everything is over …"
She said softly.
There seemed to be a strange magic in Elus' voice that calmed Ella's emotions very quickly.
Before her eyes, she slowly calmed down.
Following this, a light sound rang out.
In front of Elus, the old butler lightly waved his hand, directly knocking Ella out.
"You …"
Looking at this scene, Elus's expression changed.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness Elus …"
In front of him, facing Elus's gaze, the old butler's expression was still respectful as he smiled and said, "Miss Ella's emotions are still a bit unstable.
"In order to prevent any accidents, it's best to let Miss Ella sleep first …"
He said softly, as if he was thinking about Elus.
"Your Highness Elus, if possible, it's best to take Miss Ella back to rest.
"After a period of time, there should be no more problems."
"I hope so …"
Elus raised her head and looked at the old butler in front of her with a cold expression.
Then, she had no intention of staying there any longer. She brought Ella with her and left the place.
After she left, the old butler gazed at her back view, smiled, and turned to leave.
"Young Master Yardim …"
A moment later, in a spacious room, the old butler looked at Yardim and said respectfully, "Your Highness Elus has left.
She took Miss Ella with her. "
"Really?"
Sitting alone in the room, Adem was dealing with some matters at his desk. When he heard the old butler's voice, he turned around and smiled. "Has the matter been resolved?"
"How is Miss Ella?"
"Something doesn't seem right …"
Standing on the spot, the old butler thought back to what Ella had just done and said, "There's something wrong with her mind …
”
"But I can still maintain my sanity …"
"Is that so …"
Yardim smiled and said, "After being locked in a small dark room for half a month, she's still able to stay awake. That's not bad …"
"But if that's the case, it'll be interesting."
For a person with intelligence, the feeling of being locked in a small black room was not very pleasant.
The room that Ella had stayed in before was specially made by Adim.
Not only were all the openings completely sealed, but there was also a formation.
It looked quite normal on the outside, but inside, one would not be able to see the sun or any light at all.
At the same time, because of Yardim's orders, no one entered that area for a period of time. There was also a formation that isolated sound from the outside, making it so that not a single sound could be heard inside.
Inside, it was equivalent to being locked in a small black room. One would not be able to see or hear anything, and one would not know whether it was day or night, nor would one know how much time had passed.
Under these circumstances, as time slowly passed, one's mind would gradually collapse, and it would be very difficult to endure.
Ella was in it. After staying there for such a long time, there was only a small problem with her mental state.
This was not bad.
However, that was it.
Yardim did not pay much attention to Ella's matters.
Since she had been taken away by Elus, this matter would end here.
As for what would happen next, it would depend on whether or not she would be tactful.
Sitting in front of his chair, Yardim's expression was calm as he thought to himself.
On the other side.
"Don't be afraid …"
Within a luxurious palace, Elus was taking care of Ella.
When they arrived, Ella had already changed into a new set of clothes. She seemed to have recovered a lot and had become more normal.
It was just that her face was still a bit numb; it seemed that the aftereffects from before had not completely disappeared.
Looking at Ella, Elus lightly sighed, but there was nothing she could do. She could only softly comfort her, "It's fine, it's all in the past.
"For the next period of time, you can stay here with me."
No one will continue to harm you. "
She looked at Ella and said softly.
In front of him, Ella lowered her head and nodded. A smile appeared on her face again.
It seemed that she had pulled herself together.
Looking at this scene, Elus smiled and let out a sigh of relief.
Because of this matter, the Mead family had been greatly weakened, and the benefits they could provide Elus were greatly reduced.
However, after this incident, Ella in front of her would probably be dead set on her.
After all, when everyone had given up on her, it was Elus who had reached out to her and saved her from Yardim.
She believed that she would be loyal to Elus because of this.
From now on, Elus would have a subordinate that she could use without worry.
"If that's the case, then it's not too bad …"
Standing there and looking at Ella, Elus comforted herself, "At least, Ella's talent is not too bad. Perhaps she will become an excellent Mage in the future …"
Compared to Elus, Ella's talent was not too bad. She had decent Mage talent and might become a Mage in the future.
As a matter of fact, if it weren't for this incident, the Mead Family would have hired a Mage to guide Ella after some time.
Even in a place like the Kakun Empire, a person with excellent Mage talent was a rare resource.
If she could obtain Ella's undying loyalty through this matter, it would be quite good for Elus.
After all, even though the Mead family's losses were huge, it did not have much to do with her.
Even though there were some benefits between the two, it was not as great as she had imagined.
If she could use these things to exchange for a future Mage's loyalty, it would be quite good.
Looking at Ella in front of her, a smile appeared on Elux's face.
However, in a place that she did not know.
Ella opened her eyes. Her eyes were filled with hatred.
.....
Time slowly passed.
About half a month later, an uninvited guest quietly arrived at Yardim's manor.
"Please come in …"
In a quiet and spacious room, Yardim sat alone, holding a book and seriously reading it.
Following this, he heard footsteps coming from the outside, and his body paused. He turned around and looked behind him.
Behind him, a young girl dressed in a black robe was slowly walking towards him.
From the outline of the girl's body, he could faintly sense a familiar aura.
It was none other than Ella.
"Looks like you've thought it through …"
Sitting on his seat, Adim turned around and looked at Ella, who was walking towards him, with a smile on his face.
