Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube

Chapter 1172 - 862: Something’s Not Right

"Swish!"

The sharp glow of claws was extremely chilling, sweeping through the space and causing the surrounding wind and snow to be blown away by the fierce energy, leaving not a single snowflake behind.

An attacker, armed, clad in armor, and with an extremely fierce appearance, only felt a blur before his eyes, then the horror on his face froze.

"Splat!"

Blood splattered, sending a huge head flying into the air. After floating for a moment, it fell onto the snow, staining the ground red.

"Thud..."

The headless corpse of the fierce-looking attacker fell heavily onto the snow, and after a few convulsions, it completely lost its breath.

The glow of the claws dissipated, revealing Lilith’s alluring figure appearing amidst the wind and snow.

Upon closer inspection, quite a few people were already lying around this Female Demon, each death extremely gruesome, clearly a one-sided slaughter.

"How many times has it been now?"

Beside her, Leo, with one of his twin swords resting on his shoulder, was also surrounded by quite a few bodies, making him sound somewhat annoyed.

"I don’t know. After the twentieth time, I stopped counting."

Answering Leo’s question was Ivy, who usually stayed in the carriage unwilling to come out in the cold.

This female Magician, whose combat power is not weaker than a Sword Saint, also had a face full of boredom, with several shimmering thunder magic bullets floating around her, enveloped in a sparkling barrier.

"Bang!"

As a lightning bullet shot out, an attacker who was trying to escape got hit directly and was blasted away with a scream due to the explosion.

Now, the only ones not present were Liz and Yuloli.

The little princess remained in the carriage, responsible for protecting Cleria and the snoring Yuloli.

As for Reiger...

"[Memory Manipulation]."

Accompanied by a rough memory search, after a few seconds, Reiger dropped the attacker, who had turned into an idiot, from his hand.

This attacker was the leader of this attack.

As usual, Reiger only dealt with the leader and used magic to extract their origin.

Nonetheless, because of this, the group was now somewhat bewildered.

"Which side sent them this time?"

Ivy cautiously asked.

"Glo Kingdom."

Reiger threw out the name, leaving everyone speechless.

The Glo Kingdom, like the Luke Kingdom, is one of the small countries in the northern part of the continent, and although not as close to the Tistis Kingdom as the Luke Kingdom, it’s not far either.

This kingdom holds quite a bit of power among many small countries, not matching the Luke Kingdom but not far off.

This kingdom is also a member of the small country alliance in the northern continent, and like the Luke Kingdom, covets the now-mighty Tistis Kingdom.

However, this was not what concerned the group.

"The Luke Kingdom, the Glo Kingdom, plus the Lionheart Kingdom last time and the Blue Brilliance Kingdom the time before that, that makes four kingdoms that have sent attackers against us, right?"

Ivy looked incredulous.

"Also, within the Tistis Kingdom, several noble families, including the Fanaad Marquis family initially, have sent people over, totaling over a dozen noble families."

"We’ve been traveling for three days and have faced at least thirty attacks, right?"

"Moreover, the attackers come from various great powers, including from this very country... What exactly is going on?"

Indeed, that was the astonishing part for everyone.

In three days’ time, traveling on the legs of two sub-species Frost Dragons, they had already left the Beryl Earl’s territory, delving deep into Tistis Kingdom’s heartland.

Now, they were not far from the capital of the Tistis Kingdom, Ulwashi. At this pace, they would reach it by tomorrow night at the latest.

Yet, in a short span of three days, even though Reiger’s group had ventured deep into Tistis Kingdom’s heartland and their proximity to Ulwashi was increasing, the attacks against them were incessant.

These small countries spared no effort, using various means to send attackers here, including but not limited to smuggled military troops and spies lurking within this country.

This showed the immense importance these small countries placed on this mission.

But that wasn’t the most surprising part.

The truly astonishing thing was that within the Tistis Kingdom itself, many forces likewise successively sent attackers.

These forces were mostly the immensely powerful nobles of the Tistis Kingdom, the weakest being Earl families, with even Duke families participating.

What was going on?

An all-out enemy?

Both foreign and domestic forces persistently sent people to attack; it was simply inconceivable.

"Cleria Michelle, what exactly is this woman’s background?"

This question of suspicious uncertainty arose in everyone’s hearts.

Even Reiger was confused by the current situation.

"Logically speaking, even if Cleria’s identity and background aren’t simple, and she holds a crucial influence over the Tistis Kingdom, those targeting her should only be the small country alliance eyeing this nation."

"Yet, even the nobility within the Tistis Kingdom have been sending wave after wave of attackers, and these nobles are not part of a single faction, some are even in opposition."

"Forces from differing stances are all hunting Cleria."

"This isn’t right, is it?"

"If even the Tistis Kingdom doesn’t allow Cleria to continue living, then what’s going on with Raphy Beryll?"
