Happy and Carla were soaring in the vast sky of the Royal Capital, looking down at this prosperous and huge city, their hearts filled with confusion and helplessness.
The royal capital is so large, with criss-crossing streets and row upon row of buildings.
In which corner are the two Dragon Slayers they are looking for locked up?
Carla suddenly stopped her wings, hovered in the air for a moment, then turned around and flew towards the palace. She already had an idea in her mind, and although she wasn't sure whether it would succeed, it was still much better than searching aimlessly.
"Follow me, Happy, I have a way!" Carla shouted, with a hint of determination in her voice.
Happy looked at her confused, but still flapped his wings and chased after her. He knew Carla always came up with some wonderful ideas, and maybe this time was no exception.
They came to the corridor of the palace, where people were coming and going, including nobles and officials in gorgeous clothes. Happy and Carla try to keep a low profile and avoid attracting unnecessary attention.
Just then, they saw Ed Erza. She had just finished a meeting and was thinking deeply about something. Happy recognized her at a glance and was about to call her, but Carla covered his mouth.
"Stop talking! Don't expose our identities!" Carla whispered in Happy's ear. Happy nodded with a shy blush on his face.
Carla turned to look at Ed Erza, with a majestic expression on her face. She flew in front of Ed Erza and shouted loudly: "That woman, raise your head!"
Ed Erza was awakened by the clear female voice. When she looked up, she saw two cats flying in the air staring at her. She was shocked and quickly knelt down to salute: "See you, Lord Transcendent!"
When Happy saw Ed Erza's appearance, he had a more accurate understanding of the dominance and intimidation of the Transcendent. This was a sign of his accumulated prestige!
Carla continued to maintain a majestic tone and said: "Tell me! Where are the two Dragon Slayers!"
Ed Erza raised her head and looked at Carla hesitantly. She knew that these two Dragon Slayers were important prisoners in the palace, but she also knew that the power of these transcendents was not something she could compete with. She struggled in her heart and finally chose to remain silent.
Carla's eyes widened when she saw this, with a hint of anger in her tone: "Human! Don't be too presumptuous! Do you know who I am?"
Ed Erza stood up and looked at Carla doubtfully. She didn't know the origin of this transcendent who suddenly appeared, but her majesty and momentum prevented her from showing any signs of neglect.
Carla took a deep breath, and then said loudly: "I am the daughter of Queen Shakot, the princess of Exdalia - Carla!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the entire corridor fell into silence. Ed Erza was so shocked that she knelt down and kowtowed again, and said in panic: "Yes, I'm very sorry!"
Carla looked at Ed Erza's reaction and couldn't help feeling a little proud. She knew that her identity held an important position in the capital, which was also the key to her ability to find the Dragon Slayer.
She decided to continue using her identity to interrogate Ed Erza until she found the whereabouts of Natsu and the others. Happy was silently supporting her, knowing that Carla would be able to find a way.
"So...where are those two Dragon Slayers?!"
With her noble posture, Carla looked down at Ed Erza who was kneeling on the ground. Her voice was full of the majesty and contempt of a king. Her sharp eyes were fixed on Ed Erza, as if she wanted to see through the secrets of her heart.
Ed Erza knelt on the ground, her body trembling slightly. She hesitated, clasping her hands as if weighing the consequences of telling the truth. Finally, she plucked up the courage, raised her head, and said with a slightly trembling voice: "In...the dungeon of Sita, where they are imprisoned."
Carla frowned when she heard this, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes. She folded her arms and stared at Ed Erza in the sky, her voice cold and firm: "Then... release them immediately!" Her order was like a cold sword, pointing straight into Ed Erza's heart.
Ed Erza lowered her head, was silent for a while, and then spoke slowly: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I don't have the right to release them. This is the king's order, and I can't disobey it." Her voice was full of helplessness and guilt. .
Carla's eyes widened in anger. She looked at Ed Erza and roared loudly: "Stop talking nonsense! I am the princess, and I have the right to order you! Release them quickly!" Her voice echoed in the air, full of Majestic and unquestionable.
At this moment, there was the sound of rapid footsteps, and Ponsalili led a group of soldiers and ran over. They ran and roared loudly: "Erza, are you crazy? Those two Transcendents are the [Fallen Sky]! They have been expelled from Exdalia! How dare you help them!"
Carla and Happy were shocked when they heard this. They quickly turned around and flew away, their hearts filled with uneasiness and worry. Ed Erza punched the floor angrily and roared: "You two bastards! Wait for me!" Her voice was full of anger and unwillingness.
"Carla, aren't you a princess? What are you afraid of?" Happy's voice was full of doubts and confusion. He flew upward crazily and turned to look at Carla beside him. His eyes flashed with worry and doubt about Carla, as if he didn't understand why she seemed so nervous and scared.
Carla took a deep breath and tried to calm down her emotions.
She looked at Happy and said with a serious face: "It's useless, Happy.
In this world, once you are labeled as a [Fallen Heaven], it means you have been completely betrayed.
No matter what your status is, I can't change this cruel fact, even if I am a princess, I can't change this rule at will."
Happy had a look of astonishment on his face after hearing Carla's words. He could not understand the cruelty and ruthlessness of this world, nor could he imagine that Carla, as a princess, would have to face such a dilemma. He held Carla's hand tightly, wanting to give her some comfort and support.
At this moment, a large sound of flapping wings suddenly came from the sky.
Happy and Carla quickly looked up and saw a group of Transcendent Corps wearing black armor approaching them quickly.
Their eyes were cold and firm, and the weapons in their hands shone with cold light.
It was obvious that they were coming with bad intentions.
"I saw them! Chase them! Catch them!" Nichiya of the Guards saw Happy and Carla flying and quickly ordered the soldiers to speed up the pursuit. His voice was full of coldness and cruelty, as if he wanted to put Happy and Carla to death.
Carla's face instantly turned pale. She pulled Happy around in the air and flew quickly toward the building below. She knew that this time things were beyond her control, and she had to find a way to deal with this sudden crisis as soon as possible.
At this moment, deep in the palace, King Faust was sitting on a gorgeous throne, with a sly smile on his lips. With a wave of his hand, a series of orders came down: "Start the ETD plan!"
Following his order, the organs in the palace began to activate, and a conspiracy against the Transcendents was quietly unfolding.
Carla and Happy didn't know this, they were running away from their pursuers.
Carla's heart was full of tension and uneasiness, and she knew that things had become very difficult this time.
She must find a way to deal with this crisis as soon as possible, otherwise she and Happy will face great danger.
At this moment, a large number of soldiers appeared on the castle. They slowly raised the flag of the royal capital, one after another.
As the flag was raised, three giant cannons appeared on the city wall, splitting into three directions and facing Happy and Carla.
"Codename ETD! Activate!"
Following the commander's order, three giant cannons lit up instantly. They were actually three huge spotlights, but the light they emitted seemed to have a different kind of power.
Happy and Carla felt a huge sense of oppression. Seeing that the light was about to hit them, they hugged each other and trembled.
But to their surprise, the real target of those three rays of light was actually the Beyonder Legion chasing them.
The light shone on them, and the Beyonder soldiers roared. Nichiya looked at the palace in disbelief, and roared loudly: "Damn it...human beings...Her Majesty the Queen will not let you go..."
Before he finished speaking, the Beyonder Legion instantly turned into a huge cat-shaped magic crystal.
