Chapter 549: Change of Stance
Klein really didn’t expect gray to make a move at such a critical moment.
Previously, Gray had always been on Demon King Saxe’s side.
Now that he had seen Demon King Saxe’s true colors, he had finally changed his stance.
From his point of view, anyone who disrespected the ruler of his former residence would become his enemy.
Demon King Saxe was stunned when one of his arms was chopped off. He looked at Klein in disbelief.
Then, he looked at his empty shoulder and roared.
He was finally certain that his arm had been chopped off by this fellow. He began to howl in madness.
“You, you, you actually ambushed me!”
Klein sneered. “There’s no shortage of deceit in war. What do you mean by ambushing? Have you not done many sinister and cunning things?”
At that moment, Demon King Saxe also realized that his arm had fallen into Gray’s hands along with Princess Anna.
Demon King Saxe’s eyes lit up as he stretched out his left hand and grabbed Princess Anna.
“That’s great. You actually managed to capture her. Quickly give me the Princess!”
At this moment, Gray took off the crow mask on his face. This was the first time Klein had seen Gray’s true face.
He had heard many legends about this person before, and this was the first time Klein had seen his face clearly.
He was indeed not young anymore. Gray’s face was filled with vicissitudes of life, and he still had a thick beard.
However, his face was still very delicate. It was obvious that he was a handsome man when he was young.
He frowned slightly, and there was a determined look in his eyes.
However, he took two steps back, grabbed Princess Anna’s shoulder, and pulled out the arm that was gripping the Princess’s neck.
“Don’t talk such nonsense. I won’t hand the Princess over to you. What you’ve done has already exceeded my imagination. It’s simply outrageous!”
As he said that, he rapidly retreated and instantly landed beside Klein.
As expected, Gray, who had outstanding movement techniques, had a huge advantage at this moment.
Even Demon King Saxe’s subordinates couldn’t stop him.
A look of hatred appeared in Demon King Saxe’s eyes, and even his facial expression changed to a twisted and ferocious one.
He pointed in Gray’s direction. “You actually dared to betray me? To me, you’re just a watchdog. You actually dared to betray me! Unforgivable, unforgivable!”
Gray snorted coldly. “It’s because you don’t take anyone seriously. Your subordinates are watchdog dogs, while outsiders are ants. Your disrespectful behavior is unforgivable!”
As he said that, Gray pushed Princess Anna to Klein’s side.
He could tell that Princess Anna, who had lost her memory, wouldn’t trust anyone other than Klein.
The fact that Klein had come all the way here to rescue the Princess showed how deep their relationship was.
At that moment, Gray was already prepared to fight to the death.
He reached out and patted Klein on the shoulder.
“I’m sorry. Before meeting you in such a manner, although we were enemies, we are friends from now on. Keep an eye on Princess Anna!”
Klein’s eyes widened in shock.
He could tell that Gray had already made up his mind to cover the retreat of the few of them no matter what!
Although Demon King Saxe had lost his arm, he was still powerful.
It wasn’t an easy task to cover the Princess’s retreat.
At that moment, Gray wanted to create an opportunity for the few of them to stall for time!
“No, absolutely not. Since we’re partners, we’ll advance and retreat together. We can’t leave you here alone!”
James also nodded. “That’s right. We’ve always advanced and retreated together with our partners. Don’t think of me as a deserter!”
Gray sighed softly. “I know you’re not deserters, and you’re very brave warriors. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have insisted on coming here to save people!”
“That’s right. I hope that you can agree to my last request. No matter what happens, send the Princess out!”
At that moment, Gray’s voice was lowered, and only Gray and Klein could hear it.
“Listen to me. The identity of the Princess is indeed noble, but the reason why Demon King Saxe obtained the Princess is no longer so pure. The Princess has an extremely big secret!”
“Demon King Saxe brought the Princess back to the palace for this secret.”
“At this moment, Princess Anna has lost all her memories. She is already in a state of amnesia.”
“Demon King Saxe was unable to obtain any information from her, which was why he placed the Princess under house arrest.”
It turned out that Gray had already been speculating about the ins and outs of the matter.
He had also been observing the movements between Demon King Saxe and the Princess.
Klein frowned slightly. “Does that mean that the secret Anna holds is very important to Demon King Saxe, and it even concerns his future fate?”
Gray nodded. “It’s unknown if this secret is related to Saxe, but it’s clearly related to this space. I hope that you can think of a way to restore the Princess’s memory. You must know this secret!”
Therefore, Klein and James had to take the Princess away first. They had to bring Anna out no matter what…
Klein sighed softly in his heart. He didn’t expect Gray to be a hero who valued loyalty and had a very principled bottom line.
What exactly happened to this person twenty years ago? At this moment, Klein had great respect for Gray!
He reached out and grabbed Gray’s shoulder. “Since that’s the case, it’s fine if you take the Princess and leave first. I’ll stay!”
At this moment, Demon King Saxe had already made a move. He grabbed his right arm tightly as he roared angrily. He had to grab the people in front of him who were in the way!
At this moment, Demon King Saxe’s subordinates had already surrounded the few of them!
Gray sneered. “Don’t waste any more time. If you waste any more time, no one will be able to leave. Anna trusts you the most right now. If I bring her out, there’s no way I can help her recover her memories! Remember this, only you can do it!”
As he said this, Gray pushed Klein’s shoulder and pushed them out of the group. He himself was blocking the enemy.
At this moment, the Black Crow Legion that had been watching the battle from the side also instantly surrounded them.
When Demon King Saxe thought that these people were still his loyal subordinates, the members of the Black Crow Legion instantly turned traitor!
For such a long period of time, they had always followed Gray and only acknowledged one master…
Since Gray and Saxe were enemies, they naturally had to turn traitor together.
At this moment, Demon King Saxe was even more furious. He didn’t expect so many people to betray him in a single day.
These people were all unscrupulous fellows. He had to destroy them all in order to vent the hatred in his heart!
Just as Klein was about to charge forward, he was stopped by James.
