Almost everyday Princess Mae visits Andrey's house. They became closer and closer each day until one day Andrey gained enough courage to confess his feelings to the princess and Princess Mae confessed to him that she had a crush on him every since his awarding at the castle then they kissed and hugged under a big tree.

Not far from Andrey and Princess Mae the spy witness everything and go back to his master.

Laxus was sitting in his table in a castle office when the spy starts knocking in his window. He opened it and the spy began his report after the spy finish his report Laxus slams his table and grinned his teeth then he grabbed the display in his table and throw it to the wall. As soon as the display hits the wall the someone knocked on the door and enter his office.

A messenger from the king approach Laxus and relay the order of the king to find and punish the person who tells the demons about the failed ambush at the forest.

After a few days some knights arrested Andrey in order of Laxus the knight commander for conspiring with demons and leaking information's.

No matter how much Andrey insist that his not the traitor only Princess Mae and Carmela believed him because Laxus pay some warriors to give false testimony against him.

The King sentence him to death by cutting his head and Andrey's execution will be on the next day.

Meanwhile Jessy and Carmela remain outside the prison bars comforting Andrey and telling him that everything will be fine but he only replied with a forced smile.

After seeing his fake smile Carmela quickly run outside with tears in her eyes and head back home while Jessy still remains in Andrey's side.

Then Andrey give an order to Jessy "Jessy guard my sister never let anyone harm her and pick up my head after my execution. I'll ask the king to give it to you as my final request."

Jessy nodded and head back home but before he approach their home he saw some knights escorting Carmela so he quietly followed them to a mansion. There he see and hear Carmela begging to a man to spare Andrey's life and as he saw the man clearer he saw Laxus sitting in front of kneeling Carmela.

Then Laxus stand and ridiculed Carmela "who do you think you are to ask me a favor? Your just a filthy commoner and why do I have to help your brother? Besides I'm the one who framed him to die now he will no his place and he can never again touch my beloved Mae. Boys you know what to do enjoy your selves. "

Then Laxus leave the mansion laughing while Carmela remained in the floor fill with fear because of the knights that in circles her but before anyone can touch her Jessy break through the window and one by one he killed all the knights in the mansion in just a few seconds.

Jessy embrace Carmela to comfort her then her tears began to fall because of fear. Jessy carried Carmela home because she can't still walk because of the fear she feels in that mansion. Jessy never leave her side whole night to make sure she's safe.

And the day of Andrey's execution arrived but before the King begin his execution he ask him for his final wish so he ask the king to give his head to his friend Jessy and his body to be burned. The King accepted his final request and ordered to begin his execution.

Inside the castle Princess Mae never stop crying and she didn't have the courage to witness the execution of the man she love so she refused to come out of her room.

Jessy embrace Carmela while she is crying and looking on his brother. Andrey was tied in both arms while his head is placed in the top of a cut trunk. A man with cover in his face stand by his side carrying a large ax.

Then the king raised his hand to signal the man with ax to prepare the execution and as he lower his hand the ax swings towards Andrey's neck and blood began to glow over the trunk.

Carmela falls down to her knees as she witness her brother's head rolls down on the floor. He became hysterical and cried in Jessy's arms.
