"President, we caught the lady."

The person who reported the news was the commander of the 1st Guards Regiment.

In the study on the second floor of the Dawn Fortress, Savos' heart was slightly shaken.

"Did you really catch him?"

"Really, in the yard."

Savos immediately stood up and walked to the window, casting a spell to observe the situation in the yard.

"How did you catch him? Where did you catch him?"

Before the captain could answer, Savos saw his daughter Natalie standing in the yard.

In just less than seven days, the daughter changed drastically.

The bright and beautiful robe on his body was replaced by a half-worn linen short robe, and the meticulously combed long hair was turned into easy-to-manage short hair. The originally pink and white face that was spotless was now stained with many stains, and the pair of blue-black eyes became firm and profound.

With just one glance, Savos knew that this was no longer his daughter, but his enemy.

An enemy that will never give up.

The leader's voice came from the side: "We caught the young lady in the forest in the southern suburbs. She was hunting in the forest with a few companions at the time."

"When we found her, she had voluntarily stayed behind to protect her companions from escaping. She did not put up any resistance and only said that she wanted to see you before she died."

"See me? She still has the nerve to come and see me?!"

Savos smiled coldly, looked down at his swollen and rotten left hand, his heart filled with hatred.

He doted on his daughter so much and gave her the best of everything, but she repaid him like this. She was truly a wolf cub that could never be tamed!

"Do you want to meet him?" the team leader asked cautiously.

"Of course I will!"

Savos gritted his teeth and said, "Bring her here. I will personally escort her to see Lord Rupert."

"Yes, President."

The captain turned and left.

After a while, a team of elite warriors brought Natalie to Savos' study.

"Father," Natalie called out.

Savos snorted coldly: "No, I am not your father, and you are not my daughter, but my enemy!"

He has lived for more than 80 years and was also a very talented person when he was young.

He used all means to become the president of the Mage Association, and he has long been numb to worldly emotions.

The reason why he doted on Natalie was initially because she was his daughter, but later it was just to cultivate a close confidant.

Now that the other party has betrayed me, it is of no value at all.

No, that's not right. This daughter still has one last value, and that is to prove her absolute loyalty to the Earl! He stood up and walked towards the study door first: "Take her to the third floor!"

The study on the third floor is defended by two Eternal Guardians and is the safest place in the entire fortress.

After Rupert in Black arrived, the study naturally belonged to him. If one wanted to see him on a normal day, one had to pass the inspection of the Eternal Guardian.

Savos walked in front, and the guards followed behind him, escorting Natalie.

Natalie felt guilty towards her father. On the way, she whispered, "Father, I apologize to you."

Savos sneered.

"No, you don't have to apologize to me, and I don't need an apology either. I just want actual compensation."

"Natalie, you know exactly what kind of ending you're going to face. If you hope that I, your father, can forgive you, then you're making a wrong calculation!"

"I tell you, I will personally preside over your punishment. You will wail in the flames for three days and three nights!"

His words were as cold as a winter night, completely shattering the last bit of fantasy in Natalie's heart.

She sighed and stopped talking.

Soon, the group reached the third floor and stood in front of the two Eternal Guardians.

Natalie glanced at the two Eternal Guardians, selected the guardian warrior on the right, and began to recite silently in her heart.

"Powerful warrior, in the name of God, obey my command."

Following this thought, the Eternal Guardian on the right did not appear to have any changes on the surface.

But Natalie heard a voice in her head: "Miss Natalie, I will fight for you!"

At the same time, she felt a very secret but extremely stable connection between her soul and the Eternal Guardian before her.

Natalie was overjoyed and continued to order: "Maintain the status quo for now, but be ready to protect my life at any time."

"As you wish, Miss Natalie."

Afterwards, the two Eternal Guardians followed routine procedures and scanned the identities of everyone present, and everything was exactly the same as before.

About a quarter of an hour later, Natalie was brought before Rupert in black.

Savos trotted forward, with an expression that showed he wanted to win the prize: "Sir, I have successfully caught the traitor."

Rupert was a little surprised because this woman was Savos's daughter after all.

He originally thought that the president would at least show a little heartache, but this guy actually treated his daughter as a stranger.

He even thought for a moment that the woman in front of him was disguised by magic, so he raised his staff and used blood magic to examine her carefully.

In the end, he confirmed her identity and found that she was indeed Savos' biological daughter.

'What a good dog.'

Rupert sighed in his heart, but his face was full of indifference: "Very good!"

He stood up and said, "Now, take the traitor to the fortress execution ground, and summon all the middle and high-level members of the Mages Guild to watch the execution together!"

"Savos, you will carry out the execution yourself."

Savos nodded immediately: "I am very honored, my lord."

So, a group of people took Natalie to the execution ground in the backyard of the fortress.

He is a very cautious person, and also a rare wizard with the gift of time.

He had a vague sense of danger, but he didn't know where it came from.

Considering that he was in the mortal world and danger was inevitable, Rupert did not retreat but brought his own guards with him.

But I still feel insecure.

After thinking about it, he took the two Eternal Guardians with him.

About two hours later, more than 800 people gathered at the execution ground in the backyard of the fortress, and all the senior members of the Eye of Dawn were present.

There was a platform in the middle of the execution ground, on which was a specially built barbecue grill, with a moderate fire lit underneath. There was also a cross next to the grill, and Natalie was stripped naked and tied to the cross.

President Savos was standing next to the cross, wiping a shiny silver carving knife with a white cloth.

At the last moment, a wave of emotion finally appeared in his heart, and he whispered to his daughter on the rack:

"Natalie, this is all your own choice, don't blame me."

Natalie looked at the tall and thin wizard in front of her calmly: "Father, I don't blame you, because without you, there would be no me."

"I sympathize with you because your mind has been completely distorted by this terrible world. You will always be tortured by pain and fear, and will never feel peace, happiness, or satisfaction."

Savos' heart was slightly shaken, he looked up at his daughter on the rack, only to see that she looked calm, without any despair of being about to be tortured.

He was very puzzled because the three-day burning at the stake was extremely cruel and the victim would wail in endless pain until death.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Natalie shook her head.

Then she raised her head, looked at the spectators surrounding the execution ground, and shouted loudly:

"Poor mages, do you know why I want to kill Alex?"

"I'm telling you now, because I don't want to be Count Gauntkin's dog anymore!"

"I also want to tell you that the great Sun God of War Rosen has arrived. He will completely change this miserable world. He will rebuild the glory of the Eternal Empire from the ruins!"

"I also want to say that no matter if it's Earl Gauntkin or any other marquis or duke, as long as they are from Moon City, they are all hypocritical, cunning, and selfish devils!"

"Moon City is destined to fall from the sky, just like other fallen moon cities in ancient times!"

To say such a thing in the Mages' Guild that served the Lord of Moon City was tantamount to inciting rebellion.

Rupert in black immediately yelled at Savos: "Cut her vocal cords~~~Don't let her speak!"

Savos was alert, picked up the knife and walked forward: "Natalie, I'm sorry."

He had killed many people and knew exactly where the vocal cords were.

At this time, the knife cut towards the daughter's neck, with the position being extremely precise.

However, the extremely sharp blade failed to cut Natalie's skin.

Although Natalie's magic power had been sealed and her magic weapon had been confiscated, there was still a layer of magic barrier that seemed very thin but incredibly strong protecting Natalie's body.

Savos didn't believe it and immediately used magic to cut.

He was indeed a master of magic. He changed more than a dozen spells in the blink of an eye, but all of them were ineffective.

"How is that possible?"

On the rack, Natalie was completely calm.

She continued to yell.

"Mortals~~Change is coming, and the authority of Moon City will no longer exist!"

"Sun God of War Rosen will completely change the world!"

"Pray to God and ask him to forgive your sins!"

The mages around the execution ground looked at each other, whispered and talked.

The situation, which had never happened before, left people confused and frightened.

Rupert in black had a terrible premonition of crisis.

He clearly felt that something big was about to happen.

But he didn't know how this big thing would happen.

The only thing he could do now was to find a way to make Natalie shut up.

"Guards~~Kill Natalie~"

The guards around him are all the Earl's confidants. Although there are only ten of them, their fighting power is very strong.

At this time, five people rushed forward and pointed their staffs at Natalie. Five translucent, thigh-thick sky-blue rays pierced Natalie's body from all directions like sharp swords.

After being amplified by the staff, the strength of each spell reached as high as level 19, and the scale of the spell was more than a hundred times higher than that of mortal spells. Although it had not yet reached the high-power standard set by the Queen, it was enough to easily crush any mortal spell.

In an instant, Natalie's body was enveloped by a sky-blue light, and the aftermath of the spell instantly turned the execution platform into powder.

If Savos had not reacted quickly and retreated immediately, he would have been turned into powder.

The terrifying spell light lasted for a full ten seconds before dissipating.

But something even more horrible happened.

Even the cross had been melted, but Natalie was still intact! She broke free of her restraints, stood firmly on the scorching ground, opened her arms to the sky, and shouted enthusiastically.

"Praise the Sun God of War~~~~"

"Crash~~~"

The spectators around the execution ground were all horrified.

Since the establishment of Gray City, this is the first time that a mortal wizard has directly resisted the siege of Moon City warriors.

The invincible myth of Moon City was shattered by the ironclad facts! Rupert in black had his eyes wide open, his body stiff, and he was so controlled by a terrifying emotion that he couldn't utter a word.

Because he discovered something very terrifying.

That is, his greatest support, the ultimate war machine of the Eternal Empire, the high-energy intelligent combat puppet, the invincible Eternal Guardian, actually rebelled! (End of this chapter)
