The entirety of the crowd burst into fear and madness as the populace ran out of the stadium with their hearts on their feet.

The nearby guards started to enclose the area, although they were terrified but that didn\'t stop them from securing the area.

Vlad, who was already presiding into his mansion, also felt the deadly aura that was circulating from the arena.

He halted his advance and turned back to check what could be resulting in such a toxic aura but his movement was stopped.

Individuals clothed in black cloaks leaped down from the ceiling and surrounded Vlad\'s position.

Amongst the men, came a a distinct person that left Vlad stunned, one of his closest commanders, strode to the front before removing the hood from his face.

"Selvin." Vlad called out, his face was filled with surprise since he could already read the room and tell it an a trap.

"Duke Vlad… your time to die.. is now." Selvin said before pulling out a long blade and aiming it at Vlad.

The remaining men who were outfitted the same, yanked out their weapons and aimed them at Vlad.

Vlad glanced around before sighing at the circumstances, "This explains the bad feeling I\'ve been getting all day, so this is what it has come to, my own people rebelling against me… very well." He muttered.

"Prepare yourself!" Slevin yelled and charged straight at Vlad.

......

Right in Erza\'s room, Erza was laying on the bed, with both her hands and legs lashed with a magic glowing rope while Sebastian stood at the entrance to guard the door.

"Sebastian!" Erza yelled as she struggled to free herself from the ropes.

"Sebastian!" Erza yelled again.

Sebastian, who was standing near the door, slowly veered around his head and looked at Erza, "Yes Milady?".

"Release me at once!" She pressed furiously.

"I\'m sorry Milady, I can\'t do that." Sebastian replied.

The room began to shudder as the ground started puzzling out underneath Sebastian\'s legs and the wall did the same.

"Calm down Milady, control yourself." Sebastian said, resting his back on the door with his hand tucked.

Erza\'s eyes were gleaming red with the insignia of an eagle dancing in her eyes.

She stared at Sebastian before she uttered, "Sato is still at the arena, facing judgment for something he didn\'t do on purpose… I\'m the only one he has who can defend him".

"And what makes you so sure about that?" Sebastian asked.

"What?"

"I have served many masters before you, opposed a lot of enemies, and seen a large number of substantial lords. But no one has come close to the feeling I got when I set my eyes on the Lord of elves for the first time." Sebastian expressed.

"He is no typical monster, he is something else, his aura, expression, power… everything about him gives nothing but absolute stupor… on the outside, he seems weak, caring and gullible but on the inside, I am very sure he\'s a force to be reckoned with…".

While he was saying all this, he noticed Erza\'s face was turning red and she was covering up her expression.

"A…Are you blushing?" Sebastian asked with a deadpan watch on his face.

"N….No,.o..of course not." Erza stammered, glimpsing the other way so Sebastian wouldn\'t be able to see her face.

With a sigh, Sebastian uttered, "You must really be in love with that man".

Erza stood still for a while and slowly fronted Sebastian, "Is it love? I feel really embarrassed when I think of him, I feel scornful when I see him accomplish something and get exceptionally jealous when I see him with another person… Sebastian, this is love… I\'m obsessed~" She replied with her eyes shrank and cheeks beet red.

Sebastian was surprised since that was the first time he had ever seen Erza act the way she did.

But he didn\'t want to speak more on that topic, so he sighed and faced the door while turning his back on Erza.

"Regardless of what decision you make, I\'ll always be by your side to lend a helping hand… that is my job after all." Sebastian voiced out.

"If you truly mean that, then untie me from this hell rope so I can go save my fiancee from the mess he has gotten himself into." Erza implored.

Feeling hesitant to abide, Sebastian took his time to face Erza and walk toward her with the aim of untying her from the bondage.

But just as he was about to reach for the rope, Sebastian unexpectedly perceived something from outside the door.

Boom!

The door went soaring from off its inches and a man dressed in a gloaming cloak and holding in his hands a double sickle walked into the room.

Once the dust had vindicated, Sebastian had already snatched Erza and positioned himself on the window.

He got a good look at the face of the man before jumping down from the window.

The cloaked man peeked to his right and noticed that there were traces of black irons pitched from the ground.

Once Sebastian touched down on the ground, he placed Erza near a bush and began to unbind her legs.

"What\'s going on Sebastian? Who was that?" Erza questioned, "Don\'t tell me we are being attacked".

Sebastian untied Erza\'s legs and instantly threw the rope away.

"Listen, Milady, whatever you do, do not return…"

Baam!

Sebastian received a fast moving knee to the jaw from the same sickle-holding man.

The knee connected with Sebastian\'s jaw and sent him flying a few feet away from where Erza was.

"Sebastian!!!" Erza cried out and immediately glared back at the anonymous man standing in front of her, "Who the hell are you?" She asked with her eyes glowing red.

The man looked at Erza, with two glowing dots showing from inside the hood the man was wearing.

"Ahhh, the Demonic eye of Chaos… truly beautiful." The man said with a deep chill tone that added to the mysterious vibe he had on.

But Erza was unfazed, she looked him dead in the eyes and glowed her red eyes even brighter to show the man she was not feeling intimidated.
