Chapter 102 But is it worth it?
  It took Victoria a long time to suppress the urge to feel sick, she was still a little frightened.
  "Angelica...can we still get her back?"

  “No, I don’t know…”
  If Victoria had stayed in touch with Angelica for a while longer, she would have discovered that this was a rare panic in Angelica.
  Angelica was indeed experienced, but every race in this world could bring something new to Angelica. It was the first time she saw a noble being tortured alive and left with only skin and bones. Magic was not equal to the rotation of a magnetic field with a force of 990,000 horsepower, and it did not have the power to directly reorganize Undine's cells.

  "Let's give it a try."
  Angelica didn't care about the filth on her dress. Victoria took out the silver sword from the storage space that was overloaded with magic and broke the chains that tied her up without hurting Undine.
  Angelica used central nervous system suppression magic to maintain Wendy's disordered mind, and then used magic to clear the turbid air in the room and the dirt on Wendy's dry skin as much as possible.

  Victoria put away the silver sword, took out a blanket and wrapped Undine's body, and looked at Angelica for help on what to do next.
  "I will use magic to keep her alive, but a professional doctor is needed to treat her. Fortunately, Stavron is a town where rich people live, and there is definitely an experienced medical team."
  Victoria carefully picked up Undine and covered her eyes with a piece of cloth. Her eyes had not seen the sun for twelve years, and immediate exposure to the sun would have serious consequences.

  Angelica and Victoria leave the basement and run into someone waiting outside.
  Mrs. Drais and her servants.
  Angelica and Victoria spent a lot of time rescuing Undine. The servants waiting outside the dressing room found out that Angelica and Victoria were missing when they saw no response from inside. The guards did not see anyone coming in or out and searched the mansion without success. Mrs. Drais concluded that they must have gone to the basement.

  "You made a wrong decision."
  Mrs. Drais saw Victoria wrapped in the blanket in her arms and immediately understood everything.
  "You shouldn't mind your own business."

  "Minding other people's business...? Mrs. Drais, you are the one who needs to explain, right?"
  Victoria was so angry. As a believer in chivalry, how could she tolerate such injustice?
  "Answer me, Mrs. Drais! Why did you treat Undine like this? Just because she fell in love with a bard, you locked her up in the basement for twelve years, torturing her in a dirty and claustrophobic environment?!"
  "Miss?"

  "Is the young lady still alive?"
  The servants were shocked. They had no idea that Undine was imprisoned in the basement of the mansion. The more people knew about it, ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ the greater the possibility of leaking the secret. Only Mrs. Drais and her two sons knew the fate of Undine.
  Mrs. Drais glared at them coldly, and the servants immediately stopped talking. They were afraid of Mrs. Drais. However, Victoria had nothing to fear. She wanted to draw her sword and confront Mrs. Drais immediately.

  "Because of a love that you don't approve of, you are willing to destroy your own daughter! Is it worth it?!"
  "worth!"
  Mrs. Drais's eyes suddenly widened in anger, and a thunderous roar erupted from her small body.

  "Undine is my daughter. I have the right to decide who she should marry! She is a member of the Drais family. She must accept the fate I have arranged for her and live the life I have planned for her! Otherwise, she will be meaningless!"
  Mrs. Drais gnashed her teeth, and Victoria even suspected that the person she rescued was not Mrs. Drais's daughter, but her enemy.
  Even though Undine had been tortured to the point where she was no longer human, Mrs. Drais's hatred for her had not yet dissipated.

  "I want to let her know what happens if she disobeys me. The punishment she has received is far from enough. You can't take Undine away! Subdue them for me!"
  At Mrs. Drais's command, the servants who dared not disobey her rushed forward. Victoria needed to protect Undine and could not fight, but Mrs. Drais obviously only regarded Angelica as a weak woman.
  "——King Sequence Five: Imperial Command. Stay where you are."

  "Yes."
  Angelica's magic instantly deprived everyone of the right to move. Their eyes were dull, and they obeyed the orders given by Angelica's magic. This time was enough for Angelica to notify the court in Stavron.
  A few minutes later, the news that Undine, who had been missing for twelve years, had been found, spread throughout Stavron like wildfire. Along with the news that Undine had been found, the news of the inhumane abuse that she had suffered in the past twelve years also spread.

  Often, the spread of news is accompanied by exaggeration, but this time, because the content of the news was so bizarre, the original narration was able to achieve a shocking effect.
  After learning about it, the court dispatched two groups of people, one to the infirmary to verify, and the other to allow them to offend the authority of the nobles and enter the house of the Drais family to investigate. Unexpectedly, the people investigating the house of the Drais family were not stopped. They were all hypnotized by someone and stood there motionless.
  Therefore, they had no chance to destroy the basement that recorded their crimes. It is said that after the investigators entered the basement, someone was frightened by the horrifying scene and fainted on the spot. Angelica only filtered the air and deliberately did not clean the basement in order to preserve the evidence.

  The doctors at the infirmary shared the same pain as the investigators. They were drinking coffee and discussing opera on this beautiful morning when two girls suddenly broke into the infirmary, one of them holding a person wrapped in a blanket. At first, the doctors thought it was a seriously ill child, and when Victoria lifted the blanket, they almost vomited their coffee.
  Although this was a case that no doctor had ever seen before, they still tried their best to save Undine with the help of Angelica's magic. As the news spread widely, some private doctors who were unable to bear the consequences also found out where Undine was sent to and rushed to the hospital to help.
  Angry people broke into the wealthy area and marched to protest the inhumane abuse of the Drais family. After the court's investigation and evidence collection, it was determined that Mrs. Drais and her two sons were major suspects and were detained that day.

  Even so, everything that happened was like a raging wave, and the people of Stavron would describe it this way when they talked about it later.
  "This is an indelible shame for Stavron."
