Chapter 531 Ilea’s injury
Seeing this scene, many people present could no longer contain the anger in their hearts, and rushed towards the competition field regardless of the obstruction.
Because there were so many people, the guards responsible for maintaining order couldn't stop them at all. Maybe they also hated the hunchback to death. After all, the Silver Knight was the idol of many people, so they didn't try to stop him seriously.
Seeing that a siege was about to take place, Edward II suddenly stood up from his chair and shouted loudly.
"That's enough, have you all forgotten the rules of the tournament?"
His roar made everyone stop. His Majesty the Emperor's face was also ugly, but he still spoke every word.
"Those are the rules set by my ancestor, the founder of the empire, Alexandro the Furious Lion. As long as I am still on that bone throne, no one can violate it.
"No matter who it is, as long as he is a contestant in the tourney, I will ensure his safety in Lionheart Castle.
"The loss of the Silver Knight is a loss for the empire and a loss for all of us. I can understand your anger, and I am also grieving in my heart. He is my friend and my teacher, but rules are rules.

"We must keep our promises. Everyone, imagine what kind of chaos this world will become if we lose the constraints of our oaths.
"My ancestors, your ancestors have spent their whole lives to establish the current order, and it is our common responsibility to protect it.
"Colen, he died in the competition. He performed very bravely from beginning to end. He demanded himself as a knight and died like a knight, so we can't tarnish his reputation.

"His funeral will be presided over by me personally in three days, but before that, we have other things to do, so that the competition will continue until a new champion is produced."
After Edward II finished speaking, he sat back down in his seat, his expression calm again.
But Heloise noticed that her husband's hand holding the armrest had veins popping out.
The Elf Queen hesitated for a moment, then put her hand on the back of her husband's hand. Edward II seemed slightly surprised, but in the end he just nodded slightly to his Queen.
The crowd in the arena gradually dispersed under the words of Edward II, but their eyes looking at the hunchback were filled with murderous intent and undisguised disgust.
Once the competition is over, as soon as the hunchback leaves the capital, I believe many killers will be happy to exchange his head for a generous reward.
And when you kill a foreigner, you don't have to consider his origin and background. There is no more exciting job than this.
However, it was as if the hunchback could not feel the malice towards him at all.
When the previous conflict occurred, he just stood there quietly, but now that everyone dispersed, he saluted Edward II in the stands, then turned and left the competition ground.
Edward II watched the figure disappear, and then said to his captain of the bodyguard, Duren, "Where is Ilea now?"
"She hurried back to the hotel after her competition. I heard that she wanted to treat her injuries."
"She is injured?" Edward II was surprised and asked with concern, "How is it? Is the injury serious? Will it affect the subsequent competition?"
"I don't know." Duren shook his head.
"You are going to help me visit her. Well, take Mesha Medicine Master with you. If she needs help, I can also help her contact Priest Cornelia. She also has people who are very good at healing."

Edward II said solemnly, "No matter what, don't let her miss the next competition."
Du Lun took the order and soon arrived at the hotel where the female lord lived. He saw two guards from the Arias family chatting and basking in the sun in front of the door, looking relatively relaxed.
So Duren was a little relieved. He knew that Edward II also had murderous intentions for the foreigner nicknamed Hunchback, but for the honor of the empire and the royal family, he hoped that someone could defeat Hunchback in the competition. get rid of.
And now it seems that the only one who can possibly do this is Ilea. This is why His Majesty the Emperor is so concerned about the health of the female lord.
However, after Duren explained his purpose, one of the guards went in to report. After a while, a retired soldier came out and brought bad news to the captain of the guard.
"What, Sir Ilea is seriously injured."
"That's right, Sir Ilea insisted that he was seriously injured." Said the soldier who had two days off from teaching.
Duren noticed his choice of words, "But actually?"
"Actually, Sir Ilea was also seriously injured."
"Where is she injured? Maybe I can help her take a look." Mesha from the side interjected.
But the warrior didn't agree immediately, he just said, "I want to ask Sir Ilea first."
Duren then noticed another detail. The knight explained Mesha's purpose to a person who looked like a maid, and then the maid went to the female lord's room.
This made Du Lun's heart sink again. Usually when this happens, it usually means that the injuries of the people in the room are very serious, so they are so cautious.
In the previous battle, Ilea was on the verge of death twice, but she survived in the end. Apart from the scratches from rolling, there seemed to be no wounds left on her body.
Moreover, looking at her heroic appearance when she slashed the Earth Bear's head with an axe, it didn't look like she had been seriously injured, so why did she become dying all of a sudden?
Duren was puzzled.
And Miss Rabbit upstairs was indeed pale at the moment, her eyes were blank, she looked like she could only breathe in but not out, as if she was going to die at any moment.
Moreover, her eyes were red. She had obviously cried a lot just now, and now her eyes were swollen like two walnuts.
"It's over!" the female lord sobbed, "I'm done, I might as well die on the fighting field."
Ruby knocked on the door twice, then walked in from the outside, and saw that Miss Rabbit's second wave of tears was already brewing.
While crying, she held up a small mirror and looked at her neck. The more she looked at it, the sadder she became.
In order to survive, she had an idea and lit one of the Earth Bear's arms on fire. However, at that time, she was still being strangled by the Earth Bear's neck, so the flames that shot up also hurt her.
Judging from the injury alone, it is not particularly serious, but the problem is that it burned the neck. Even if it can be cured in the future, it will definitely leave scars.
This is also the reason why the female lord ran back as soon as the competition was over, and what's even more terrible is that Li Yu will be back tonight.
Ilea felt that she could not see Li Yu in this state. She was even worried that she would not be able to see Li Yu again in the future.
The female lord felt even more sad when she thought of this. She couldn't help but throw herself into Ruby's arms and continued to cry. (End of chapter)
