I Don’t Want This Bad Ending

Chapter 212: HER UNIQUE HAIR: PART 2

Pacing back and forth, Edickart is having a headache at the moment.

"What's the status?"

Edickart asked as he heard the door opened and without looking he knows that it's his secretary.

"Your highness it is said that it was an attack. There are two people who are fighting we still don't know how it occurred but the knights have identified them"

Turning his back and facing the secretary, Edickart quickly asked.

"Who is it?!"

"We believe that it's the Lady from the Emsworth family it's Lady Evelyn."

"What?!"

Edickart has lines in his forehead forming as he thinks deeply about Evelyn's action.

He is sure that Evelyn must be going to the Palace to hear the reports personally but was attacked on the way. That's the only conclusion that Edickart can think of.

"... you said you identified two people, right? Then who is the other one?"

As Edickart asked the question, the secretary had this confused look in his eyes and was fidgeting like he didn't know how to tell his lord about the name of the person who was attacking Lady Evelyn.

Edickart can say that his secretary is having a problem telling it to him so, he pushed him a little.

"Who is it? Why can't you tell me?"

"...well, actually, it's the General."

"What? What are you saying?"

"Your highness the descriptions of the knights who saw the people that were causing havoc are Lady Evelyn and General Gabriel."

"What nonsense?! General Gabriel was just with me awhile ago when I told him to check the situation and he just left earlier and you're telling me that he's attacking Lady Evelyn?"

The secretary was also confused because he was also there at the meeting with the senators. And he also saw that General Gabriel of the Bahalkii Kingdom was with them.

It was absurd to think about how one person could be at a different place at the same time.

"Your highness Does it mean that the attacker is mimicking the General?"

"That's possible but why?"

Then as Edickart thought about it deeply, the only conclusion was

"It's to get close to Lady Evelyn and attack her It's that bastard Ishid!"

When Edickart solved the puzzle, his emerald eyes glinted dangerously. He recalled what Ishid said in the throne room when Ishid suddenly made himself known to them.

"...I'm stopping this game of hide and seek be prepared for what is about to come."

Ishid then smiled but it was so cold that everyone can agree that he looks like a psycho.

"... to be fair I'll tell you who's the target of my revenge. I'll attack the person that everyone here cared about."

Edickart immediately thought about a person they knew. And similarly, the conclusion pointed to one person. It was Lady Evelyn.

That's why Edickart immediately called Evelyn after the situation in the Temple, but he never thought that Ishid would attack in the middle of the day and at the center of the capital of Levingstone too.

Bang! 

Boom!

Edickart's thoughts were cut off when he heard a loud explosion.

"Tsk!"

"Your highness what should we do?"

"Take the necessary knights and go to the plaza, evacuate all the citizens around the area. Also summon some magicians we need to get this bastard!"

"Yes, your highness"

***

Meanwhile, Gab arrived at the plaza where the commotion was frantic and loud.

The people were busy running to a safe place, while the others were momentarily frozen on the spot because of the tension in the air and the aura that was so heavy for them.

"What the hell are you doing? Get this civilian to a safe place"

Gab gave an order to the patrol knights who were standing at a fair enough distance from the fight. Gab saw them staring blankly before they turned their heads to his direction.

The reaction of the patrol knights who were there became shocked as they saw Gab.

'What's with their reaction?' Gab thought.

"What are you doing? Can't you see that there are still civilians there? We need to help them and evacuate them to a safe place"

"..."

The knights were still looking at him in confusion and fear. 

As a beatmen, Gab has a keen sense when it comes to people's reaction however, what he can't comprehend is why they are acting like this ever since he arrived.

"Hey what the hell are you standing idly by?!"

"You! Why? You're just there earlier how?"

One of the two knights opens his mouth but alas, Gab still can't understand what he was talking about.

"What do you mean I'm supposed to be there? I just arrived here"

When Gab didn't get a response, he followed the two knights line of vision and arrived at the two people who were fighting at the top of a roof.

"What the-"

Boom!

Crash!

Gab didn't have the opportunity to finish his sentence as one of the people who were fighting crashed and landed near the building that they were just standing by.

"Is that..."

The debris was all over the place and the smoke that came from it clouded their vision.

Cough! Cough! Cough!

Several patrol knights cough. They thought that the scale of the fight was too much for them and so they stood there in conflict. Thinking if they could be in any help or they will just die because they are a hindrance.

Step Step Step

Gab then heard footsteps not so far from where they were standing. He squinted his eyes to see who it was, if what he just saw earlier was a mistake.

While the person who mercilessly crashed at the building was still there and was moaning in pain.

"Ugh..!"

"You're such a stubborn lady and also feisty... I like that"

The fog that was made because of the debris was slowly getting cleared and the person who resurfaced gave him and the other knights the look of disbelief.

"What the hell is happening?"

Gab can't help but mumble it to himself while the other knights that were on the scene all looked at him. 

"That's him, right?"

They stare back and forth towards the man who was walking leisurely and to General Gabriel that was standing with them.

"What is this? Some kind of sorcery?"

"Wait we have two General Gabriel?"

When one of the patrol knights said it, Gab could only stay still and looked at the man who identically matched his appearance.

"Is that me? Wait but how? I mean, I'm here then who the hell is that impostor?"

While Gab was contemplating who was using his face the person that was buried in the pile of debris came out slowly, which made Gab shocked again.

"...Eve?"

Gab can't help but look back and forth between Evelyn who is in tatters and the impostor who was smiling at Evelyn looking like a lunatic. 

"I told you I'm not going anywhere unless I take back the soul of your mother"

The impostor who looked exactly like Gab said as he walked closer to Evelyn and cupped his face tightly.

"Pptoo"

Evelyn spit on his face which made him smile.

"You still have energy? That's more I like it!"

"I'm never going to give you my mother's soul you bastard!"

When Gab heard Evelyn talked back, he immediately knew who that bastard was.

"Ishid you bastard! I'll kill you!"

And as if, Ishid heard Gab, he looked in the direction of Gab and smiled, provoking him in the process.

And as he saw that Ishid was tightly gripping Evelyn's face while enjoying the moment, Gab's blood was boiling in anger and so without further delay, he launched an attack against him.

Bang!

Ishid flew from where he was just standing and crashed at the opposite building and left Evelyn who was coughing.

"Eve are you alright?"

"Gab? You're the real Gab right?"

Evelyn's sunset eyes were pleading. It was hard for her to fight a face that she was so familiar with.

She knew that it was Ishid, however, everytime that she wanted to strike him with her magic, she remembered the man who clung to her and told her that he would wait for her.

And so in her weakness, the result was her being in disadvantage.

"It's me.. I'm here I'll protect you."

Gab reassured Evelyn and kissed her forehead so gently. 

Evelyn felt warm and knew that the man who held her in his arms was the real Gab that she knew.

"Oh~ one of your knights arrives, Eve. Isn't that great?"

Gab looked at the direction where the voice came and eventually knew that it was the man who he just kicked.

"Stay here"

Gab knew that Evelyn was not in the position to fight and so, he left her in a safe spot beside the patrol knights to recuperate some of her mana.

"What? You're going to make me wait, Eve~?" Ishid said while Evelyn ignored him and just looked at Gab.

"I'll join you afterbe careful! " Evelyn said before Gab used his beastly physical strength and arrived at the building where the impostor Ishid was just standing up.

Ishid who just looks like Gab was busy dusting the dirt on his clothes like what he just experienced was a child's play and when he saw Gab who arrived like a wind, Ishid opened his mouth.

"You're not my opponent, kid."

"No you need to kill me first before you could hurt Eve again."
