The walking dragon son
Chapter 27 The aftermath
Although the turmoil in the royal capital was over, it left a lot of trouble behind. The most serious thing is of course that the leader of the Red Lotus Lion King Regiment, Fagrain, was seriously injured and has not regained consciousness even now.
Fortunately, there was only one Ladis who caused the turmoil, and he was quickly defeated by Ciel and Asta of the Black Bull Group.
From the enemy reinforcements who appeared from behind, everyone also learned that the culprit of this attack was an organization called White Night Demon Eye.
Because it happened to be a medal ceremony, the elites of each regiment were quickly dispatched. Minimize the damage caused by the turmoil.
Although the elites of each regiment were transferred outside the city midway, they returned in time to prevent White Night Demon Eye's reinforcements from annihilating the seriously injured Fagrain and Charles.
Of course, thanks to Asta, Noelle, and Leobert's desperate fight, they were able to protect the two of them before the Magic Knights returned.
Although they failed to capture Ladis, who used corpse magic to destroy the capital, Yuno from the Golden Dawn group and Chami from the Black Bull group on the other side teamed up to capture a member of the White Night Demon Eye.
As for why Qiami is in the capital..., this foodie secretly followed the three of Charles to the capital just to get some food.
And after the turmoil in the capital began, she actually sneaked into the kitchen... Anyway, by various coincidences, she defeated the member of the White Night Demon Eye who attacked the people.
According to the supplementary report by Charles, who woke up later, it was determined that the target of the White Night Demon Eye was the necklace that Fagrain had been wearing, or to be precise, it was the magic stone on the necklace.
This was also proven by the Magic Emperor Julius himself.
As for how to prove it... The reason why the Magic Emperor, who is responsible for protecting the Clover Kingdom, did not appear during the turmoil in the capital was because he directly found the base of the White Night Demon Eye.
Perhaps after the Sosi Village incident, or perhaps earlier, Julius noticed something.
You must know that Julius is also extremely outstanding among the previous Magic Emperors. I don’t know how he did it. Anyway, he just found the stronghold of the White Night Demon Eye and killed it alone.
God knows how the White Night Demon Eyes and the others felt after they withdrew from the royal capital and saw Julius waiting there.
According to Asta who was present at the time, Julius almost annihilated those magicians with White Night Demon Eyes in just a few breaths.
The leader of the White Night Demon Eye showed up in time. He rescued several people and took away the stone slab that the Magic Emperor found in his stronghold.
In the end, the Magic Emperor only rescued Asta who was kidnapped and captured one prisoner.
But what caused a shock was the report submitted by Charles after he woke up. The appearance of the man who seriously injured Fagraine described above was exactly the same as the true appearance of Vankins, the leader of the Golden Dawn, under the mask.
There may not be anyone else who would meet the criteria with such "characteristic" appearance.
Although Ciel didn't say it explicitly, it was clearly accusing Vankins of being the murderer who seriously injured Fagraine and the leader of the White Night Demon Eye.
To be honest, Charles didn't see the moment when Patri used Vankins' face to shake Fagerlain. But Charles didn't want Patri's plan to proceed so smoothly.
But will anyone really believe it?
A new member of the Black Bulls who had just joined the group actually accused the leader of the Golden Dawn of being the leader of an organization that conspired to subvert the kingdom...
Comparing the status of the two, it is obvious who is more trustworthy.
People with a brighter mind would think that the leader of the White Night Demon Eye deliberately disguised himself as Captain Fankins in order to disturb Captain Faglean and create an opportunity for a sneak attack.
Later, he can also frame Lord Vankins, the best among the knight leaders. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone.
The "Captain Vankins" that Charles saw was not the real Captain Vankins, but one deliberately disguised by the enemy.
People with darker and more extreme thoughts even believe that the newcomers of the Black Bull Group are deliberately retaliating because they are jealous of the Golden Dawn Group. Ciel's accusation is completely an ugly slander.
These people even suspected that Fagrain's injury was caused by Ciel's sneak attack, and that Ciel was the traitor who colluded with the White Night Demon Eye.
Needless to say, there is quite a market for this idea, especially among the Golden Dawn group.
They completely ignored all the unreasonable aspects of this vicious speculation. For example, how could Charles know what Vankins looked like under the mask? Another example: why did Ciel defeat Radice? Why did White Night Demon Eye silence Ciel?
Between the beloved leader and the young servant of the rogue knights, of course they would only suspect the latter.
If the Magic Emperor hadn't stopped him, those people might have pulled out Ciel, who was recovering from his injuries, and executed him.
But no matter which way they think, no one believes that Vankins and Patry are the same person. The fact that the magic and grimoires of the two are different is irrefutable proof.
Ciel had already expected this result. This is why Ciel knew all the plot before but couldn't tell it, and this time he just told "the facts he saw."
Especially after Asta's Demon-Breaking Sword was used to unlock the blocking magic on the memories of the two captives, the information discovered also proved Vankins' "innocence".
The person who colluded with White Night Demon Eye was the leader of Shion's killer whale group. He betrayed the magicians who guarded the capital's boundary for precious magic tools. This led to White Night Devil Eye's success in sneaking into the capital and launching turmoil.
In the original plot, it was during the meeting of the Magic Knights leaders after meeting Byakuya's Demonic Eye again that the Magic Emperor asked Asta to break the blockade on the captive's memory.
But this time, because of the turmoil caused by Ciel's report, the Magic Emperor had to summon Asta in advance.
Charles knew that the magician responsible for reading the memory had been replaced by the false Raia, one of the White Night Demon Eye's three evil eyes.
Laia's magic is imitation magic and can simulate any magic he has ever seen.
Anyway, with the cooperation of transformation magic and image magic, Laia allowed everyone to see the processed information.
Laia's handling was quite smart, and the information she gave was true whether it was the existence of the magic stone, the purpose of the White Night Demon Eye, or even the collaboration between the leader of Shion's killer whale regiment.
It's just that he completely hid the content about Patri's identity. After all, the two of them didn't know much information, which saved Laia a lot of effort.
He didn't even bite back at Ciel and frame Ciel, the "insider", as a traitor.
It seems that Patri, who has been in Vankins' body, knows the Magic Emperor quite well, and he also knows Yami quite well.
Even if he framed Ciel, Yami always believed in his members. And the Magic Emperor is not so easily deceived.
If such false information is given, it may make the Magic Emperor and Yami doubt the accuracy of other information.
However, Ciel's goal has been achieved. At least the Magic Emperor and Yami have become suspicious of Fankins.
After all, Fankins did not show up on the day of the investiture ceremony, which is also a major doubt.
The strangest thing is that Vankins himself did not make any excuse. Perhaps he also hoped to be seen through, so that he would not have to make a painful choice between his best friend and his responsibilities.
But in the eyes of others, this turned out to be that Captain Vankins did not bother to refute such boring accusations, or that Captain Vankins was broad-minded and unwilling to embarrass the militia members.
In any case, the turmoil in the royal capital finally calmed down. But the increasingly turbulent undercurrent made everyone nervous.
At this time, Ciel, who had recovered from his injury, disappeared, and no one except Yami knew where he had gone.
