When Rhode pushed open the bedroom door, the first thing that came into view was Lilian's pale, slightly thin face. She was wearing a thin pajama, crossed her hands, curled up on the bed, staring blankly at the ground in front of her, and didn't know what she was thinking - maybe she didn't think about anything at all. And beside Lilian, Christie and Ling were accompanying her, and Rhode did not expect them to enlighten Lilian, but at this time, it would be better to be with someone next to her than to be alone. If Lilian was left alone here, she might even have the desire to commit suicide. When she heard the sound of the door opening, Christie and Ling both raised their heads and looked at the door, and after seeing Rhode, they stood up quickly.

“……Rod……”

“……………………………”

The two of them came to Rhodes and looked at Christie and Ling in front of them. Rhodes reached out to touch their hair, and then asked.

"How is Lilian?"

“……………………………”

Neither of them spoke, but Rhode already knew the answer. At this moment, Lilian was still sitting there with her knees in her hands, not paying attention to Rhode's arrival at all. She was like a sculpture, and she would not react to anything outside. Seeing this scene, Rhode frowned, and then he smiled slightly at the two of them.

"Thank you, Christy, Ling, now you go and rest, just leave the next thing to us."

"…………Um………"

Hearing Rhode's words, Christie and Ling nodded. Then they looked at Lilian with some concern, then turned around and left the room. It was not until this time that Rhode brought Sonia in. Seeing Lilian in front of him, Sonia's own mood was also extremely complicated. She and Rhode looked at each other, then walked to Lilian and reached out to him.

"His Majesty……………?"

“…………!”

Hearing Sonia's voice, Lilian's body trembled suddenly. She raised her head, and Sonia's figure reflected in her confused eyes. Then, the originally dim and unconscious pupils gradually generated a little light, just like a firelight gradually emerging in the darkness. She trembled and raised her right hand and slowly reached towards the girl in front of her. Then, she grabbed Sonia's clothes.

"Sonia……?”

"It's me, your Majesty, you..."

"Sonia Sonia!!"

Before Sonia could finish her words, Lilian jumped up quickly, and she rushed into Sonia's arms and cried loudly. She buried her head tightly in Sonia's chest. Soon after a while, a whimper rang out. Sonia reached out her hand with a soft smile and gently stroked Lilian's hair.

"I...I'm sorry...Sonia, if it weren't for me..."

"It's okay, Your Majesty, it's over. Everything is over. Don't cry anymore..."

While stroking Lilian's hair, Sonia comforted her softly. Rhode leaned against the side and suddenly raised his eyebrows when he saw this scene. He finally understood why Lilian was so attached to Sonia. I am afraid that the little guy would treat Sonia as his mother unconsciously. After all, in the Kingdom of Light, the two archangels had very ordinary feelings for Lilian, and only Sonia was with her all day long.

Sonia was always with her when she got up and dressed until she went to bed at night. For Lilian, who had no parents, Sonia was probably the only relative she longed for. Although Rhodes and Litian were also very nice to Lilian, after all, they all had their own things to do, and it was impossible to be with Lilian all day long. From this perspective, it is not difficult to understand that Sonia can occupy such an important position in Lilian's mind.

As for Sonia……………

Looking at the girl in front of him, Rhode suddenly realized that she had a few more unique temperaments that she had not had when she was with him - could this be the so-called maternal halo? Sonia wouldn't she really take Lilian as her daughter to raise her, and she could use the Dragon of Light to cultivate... To a certain extent, Sonia is really good and powerful.

It was not until a moment later that Lilian finally calmed down with Sonia's comfort. She sobbed and poked her head out of Sonia's arms, looking at Rod Lilian next to her with a little embarrassed look. Lilian did not ask how Sonia was resurrected. She had heard the church's notification, but even so, Lilian still could not forgive herself, which was related to Lilian's own mood. After all, no matter what, her willful behavior made Sonia die for herself. No matter how Lilian did, she would never say, "Anyway, she will be resurrected, she will die, what's the big deal..." In this way, she really became a naughty child.

"Thank you, Brother Rod."

After a while, the two separated, Lilian then wiped her red eyes and spoke to Rhode uneasy and gratefully. Faced with Lilian's thanks, Rhode didn't say much, but just shook his head.

"Nothing, this is what I should have done."

Rhode did not lie, this was indeed what he should do - from all levels. However, this time Rhode came to Lilian to see not just to see the touching scene of the two of them reunion. For Lilian, Sonia was the key to let her get out of the door in her heart, but in the end, Rhode was still responsible for continuing to lead the way.

"So what are you going to do next? Lillian?"

“……………………………”

Hearing this question, Lilian's face, who was originally a little smile, suddenly regained her previous confusion. She lowered her head silently, and after a moment, she sighed a long sigh.

"I don't care about it anymore, Brother Rod, I don't want to care about anything anymore, let them go..."

"Is this OK?"

"…………………Yes, Brother Rod, I no longer want to care about them anymore. Since they never need me, I don't need them. What will the Kingdom of Light become in the future? I don't care about why I want to protect them? They never know how to be grateful. Since that's the case, then go as they like."

This was the first time that Rhodes heard such a "willful" speech from Lilian's mouth. It could be seen that she had indeed given up and despaired. Otherwise, Lilian would not have been able to say such words. Fortunately, Rhodes still heard a turning point from her unorganized words.

"Is this really good?"

"Brother Rod?"

When Lilian heard Rhode ask again tirelessly, she felt a little strange. She raised her head and looked at Rhode in front of her in confusion. When she felt Lilian's gaze, Rhode also stared at her.

"You know what's going on in the Continent of Light now. There are chaos, natural disasters, and man-made disasters everywhere. The thieves also took the opportunity to start plundering and looting, and those people will eventually suffer all the pain and die. But......Is this really what you want?"

"I……………"

"When a person dies, there is nothing left, Lilian. It is the same in pain and regret. No matter what they encountered before they die, but when they die, they are liberated. Are you willing to let them be liberated so easily? No, Lilian, the greatest punishment for them is their own fear. I think you should be very clear about what the country of light fears the most."

“……………………………”

Facing Rhode's words, Lilian nodded quietly. Of course, she knew very well what the Land of Light was most afraid of, and this was also why she faced such a situation. The reason why she had never done anything before was precisely because of this. However, what did Brother Rhode do now?

"Death is not a punishment for them, but a relief for them, Lilian."

Speaking of this, Rhode walked forward and looked into Lilian's eyes.

"Have you ever thought about why this happens only in the Kingdom of Light? If the Kingdom of Night is mostly obedient dead people, then how do you calculate the Kingdom of Law and my Void Leader? Take a step back, what about Moon? What about Lidya? It's not that no one has provoked her authority, but has she retreated? Everything you are experiencing now is not because of your powerlessness, but because of your weakness. Lilian, your weakness has fueled their arrogance, and your retreat has made them

Going more and more, and being self-righteous. Haven't you ever wondered why they fear? Because they know very well that everything they do is not what they deserve, and they are afraid that you will take all of this back one day, which is the root of their fear. And now, what you have to do is not to completely free them, but to let them live forever in fear and tremor, and use their lives, and their descendants to atone for their former greed and stupidity."

As he spoke, Rhode reached out his hand to Lilian. Looking at Rhode's stretched out hand, Lilian's eyes gradually began to become clear and bright, and an invisible flame began to condense in her eyes.

"Are you ready? Lilian? This is a path that is more difficult to choose than death. I will not say anything about peace and security on the mainland, because it means nothing to you now. So, are you willing to repay everything they have brought you in another form?"

Facing Rhode's words, Lilian was silent for a moment, then she reached out and held Rhode's hand. Then, Lilian raised her head, and her eyes were filled with perseverance and anger.

"I do, Brother Rod."
