Gabriel tried his best. Unfortunately, even with his strengthened physique and strength boosting spell, he couldn't move the Sword in the slightest, let alone raise it.
It was as if the sword was nothing less than a heavy mountain which could crush anyone under it!
Now that Gabriel knew exactly how heavy the Sword was, it surprised him even more that the little girl carried this sword all the time.
He gazed at the little girl in the distance who e was sleeping peacefully.
He held the blanket. Since the girl slept so soon, she didn't even bother covering herself with the blanket, even when the room was cold.
Gabriel raised the blanket, covering the little girl.
Gabriel left the room, meeting the Knights outside. "Make sure no one disturbs her. If she needs anything, get it for her. And contact me when she wakes up."
He left with Avilia after dealing with some minor matters. At the same time, he also told the Knights to get people into the work of recovery.
Even though the battle this time hadn't harmed many people, many buildings were damaged already. There was a lot of cleaning work to do. He left all that inconsequential work to the Knights to deal with.
Gabriel didn't go back to his room either. Along the way, he had already canceled his shroud.
He went to the cells under the castle where the prisoners were kept. Amongst the prisoners, there was one special person.
It had been such a long time since he had captured Lambard's maid yet there was no movement from him, as if he already knew that it was a trap. Even with the huge commotion in the city which kept everyone else busy, Lambard didn't sneak inside the castle which was surprising.
"Shouldn't you rest first instead of following me? I'm only dealing with small matters." Even when he was going to the cells, Avilia was behind him. He wanted to send her away yet he couldn't be too straight.
"Do you want to get rid of me that bad?" Avilia caught up to Gabriel, walking right next to him.
"I don't want to get rid of you. I just want you to rest first, since there is an important task that I need you to finish. If you've already rested, how about you start that task now?"
"What task?" Avilia asked. "Also, you still haven't told me what happened back there. Who was the guy in the dark and where did a Demigod come from? Just what did you do?"
"I told you I have no idea," Gabriel shrugged. "I was just taking a walk in the garden when that dark robed man came and opened a portal. You don't believe me?"
"Only an idiot will believe you." The young lady rolled her eyes. "Anyway, Thank you for stopping me from fighting that little girl. If you hadn't stopped me, I would've lost a lot of my beasts. Thanks to you, I didn't summon them."
"If you want to thank me, do the task I want you to finish."
The Holy Priestess of Summoning looked at Gabriel, confused. She still wasn't told what task she had to achieve.
Gabriel briefly stopped, telling some things to the young lady which surprised even her. Avilia instantly agreed since the task didn't seem too dangerous.

Gabriel stopped before the cell where Lambard's maid was being kept.
The young maid was already asleep. Even though she was a prisoner, she wasn't treated badly and was even provided with a proper bed to sleep. It was as if she was in house arrest.
Gabriel entered the cell.
As soon as he entered, the young maid sensed his presence and opened her eyes.
"No matter what you do, I won't tell you anything." The young maid stood up. Thanks to the bracelet of sealing, she couldn't use any of her abilities. However, she was still firm in her resolve.
"You don't need to tell me anything anymore. I've already run out of patience." Gabriel's expressions were still but his words had incompatible sharpness which made the young lady tremble slightly.
"Tomorrow, you'll be executed. When you're dead, I wonder if Lambard will come to me for revenge or not. It should also send a message to the other spies who dare to infiltrate my city! I just came here to tell you to prepare yourself for that."
The maid initially thought that Gabriel was just bluffing, and that he was going to insist that she tell him Lambard's whereabouts if she wanted to survive. However, to her surprise, Gabriel didn't speak anything more. He just turned around and left, leaving the dark cell.
It was as if Gabriel had already given up on her and he was dead serious about executing her before the public.
After leaving the cell of the young maid, Gabriel went back to the higher floors. He still didn't go to his room and went to the rooms of the two Princesses of the previous Emperor who were under house arrest.
The two Princesses lived in the same room, protected by the Knights outside.
As soon as the Knights saw Gabriel approaching, they straight went down to one knee, greeting their new Emperor.
Their greeting was so loud that even the two Princesses inside the room heard them. Both of them straightened their clothes and stood up.
A slight trace could also be seen on their faces. They had already heard about the rebellion that was violently crushed by Gabriel. When they first saw Gabriel, they didn't expect him to be this kind of person. But now, they couldn't help but be scared of him.
With the uprising being crushed, Gabriel had no need to keep them anymore which gave them the impression that Gabriel was here to kill them at last.
The two Princesses looked at each other, as if they were looking at each other for the last time. Their small fists were closed as they prepared themselves for the upcoming death.
One of the Knights opened the door of the room and Gabriel's tall figure entered. After the day where he killed the previous Prince, it was the first time Gabriel had seen the two Princesses.
Unlike before, the two princesses were less cheerful and a little pale as well. They were treated like princesses and given the best of food in this place even when they were under house arrest. Yet they were even slimmer than before, as if they weren't eating properly.
Gabriel stood before the two Princesses. He could see their clenched fists and some trembling.
"You are scared of me?"
The two princesses clenched their teeth, shaking heads fiercely. However, only a fool would've believed them.
