Lilian stood on the city wall and stared at the battlefield in front of her. The snowflakes falling from the sky did not hide the traces of the battle in front of her. The charred, blood, the burning flames and black smoke were already burning. The bodies of the dead who had died before had been cremated, and the only remaining here were these burnt and dark traces.

"As Mr. Rhode said, I wouldn't see anything if I didn't come out and see it myself."

The girl did not look back, but her slightly trembling voice had already conveyed the girl's mood.

"Because of our incompetence, the war burned on this land, and countless people sacrificed their lives for this..."

Lilian held her hands tightly, and she lowered her eyes, as if she couldn't bear to look at everything in front of her. Looking at Lilian beside her, Rhode shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. At this moment, he and Lilian were the only two people on the huge city wall. Originally, the military representatives of the Council of Light were also planning to follow him, but Lilian refused his suggestion. Like Rhode, she came here this time mainly because she wanted to meet Rhode, so naturally she didn't want anyone to disturb them.

But now, Lilian felt that she had made a wrong decision. The joy of finally getting along with Rhodes was gone after seeing the land burned by the war in front of her. She felt that she was so powerless for the first time. Before this, Lilian had also heard the frontline war report, but whenever she asked, the Council of Light would say, "We are dealing with it properly." Although their tone was very respectful, Lilian certainly could not not understand what they meant.

But what can she do? She didn't know anyone after leaving the palace, except for the Council of Light. Lilian had almost no way to find out any news. She could only inquire about the situation outside through the Battle Angel. There was Slin before, but after Slin left, Lilian felt that she was alone, Casablanca was so big, but as if she was the only one.

"It's not your responsibility, Li."

Looking at Lilian's back, Rhode spoke. When the two were alone, Lilian told him not to call His Majesty again. Rhode was naturally doing good. Anyway, for players, no matter what they call it, he did not have the fear and awe that the indigenous people should have. But soon, Rhode changed his mind.

"…………I really want to say that. And tell you that this is the truth, but I cannot do it. The fact is that all this should be responsible for you."

"Mr. Rhode..."

Hearing Rhode's words, Lilian turned around in surprise and looked at Rhode in front of him. As Rhode said, when he heard Rhode's initial words, Lilian did not think so. But after hearing Rhode's next words, Lilian suddenly jumped violently deep in his heart. It was not because of sadness or anger, but because of excitement. In fact, Lilian was always looking for her own problems. What should she do? Should she continue to sit on the throne and be like an ornament? Or should she work hard to implement her will? But...

Is her idea necessarily correct? The Kingdom of Light is facing such a critical situation. If she does whatever she wants, will it drag the country into the abyss of chaos and destruction? If this is true, is it better to obey the orders of the Council of Light like this?

For Lilian, when she pushed open the door that she had never opened, what was presented to her was not only a new scenery, but also a completely different road from what she had never seen before. The road was not smooth, nor was it as beautiful, clean and tidy as Lilian imagined. On the contrary, countless thorns blocked her, and the bumpy road was full of stones, and more importantly, at the end of the road was dark. She could not see what was there, and she didn't know if she would walk, and fell off the cliff and fell into the bottomless abyss.

Now Lilian is standing at the door, the girl holds the door handle with her hands and looks hesitantly ahead. Her feet are on the inside of the threshold, but she only takes half a step, because she knows that if she takes another half step, she will not be able to turn back. After she walks out of the greenhouse, the door will be closed heavily to her, and by that time, she has no choice but to continue moving forward.

"I once said that this is your problem, you have to choose your own choice, Li."

Rhode stared at Lilian like this, which made the girl feel a little nervous because she had never looked at anyone like this before. Rhode's eyes were so sharp, as if he could go directly into the girl's heart and see through all her secrets. This made Lilian instinctively want to turn her head and avoid Rhode's gaze. But soon, the girl gritted her teeth, raised her head, and bravely endured Rhode's gaze. Seeing the scene in front of her, Rhode's eyes flashed a little smile - it seemed that his choice was correct.

But that's not enough.

"I know what you are thinking, you are afraid, worrying about the terrible consequences of the choice you make, but in fact, you have made the choice."

Speaking of this, Rhodes reached out and pointed to the burning ashes outside the city wall.

"And that is the consequence of the choice you make."

“……………………………”

Lilian couldn't help but tremble when she heard Rhode's words. The girl bit her lower lip and lowered her head. But soon, she raised her head again.

"But, but, I can't do anything by myself!"

When this sentence was said, Lilian felt that her originally suppressed mood suddenly relaxed a lot. She had never said it in front of anyone, and even in front of Litia, the girl did not want to express her troubles and boredom. But at this moment, in front of Rhode, for some reason, Lilian had the idea of ​​expressing everything.

"I'm just alone, I can't do anything! Rhode, do you know? In Casablanca, the only thing I can think of is Sister Lydia and you. Only you!!"

“……………………………”

When he heard Lilian's words, Rod opened his eyes wide in surprise. He was really surprised. Before he heard what Lilian said, he thought that no matter what, Slin and Boulder, the two archangels, should be standing on Lilian's side, but now, after Lilian's statement, she was actually isolated in Casablanca?

Those two archangels are furious?

Boulder——————Forget it, that bastard doesn’t care about him. What’s going on with Slyn? He knew from Lydia that Slyn is a role like Lilian’s tutor and nanny. Logically speaking, Slyn has been taking care of Lilian since Lilian was a child, but Lilian has not yet kissed her. Heaven and earth are so conscience. He and Lilian only met twice, but did not give this dragon soul heir to any medicine?

As a result, Lilian would rather complain to herself than seek the help of the two archangels?

Rhodes felt that this situation was a bit strange now. He always felt that the two archangels were silent on this, which might indicate some kind of bad inside story. If it were Shalier, then Rhodes could still understand that they had a crush on the original Dragon Soul of Light and were inconsistent with the parliament. After all, they had children's love and hatred, which was understandable. But Slin and Boulder had no "historical grudges". As archangels, shouldn't they do their best to protect Lilian?

This surprised thought only flashed through Rhodes' mind. But soon, he calmed down.

"You need to find your companion yourself, Li, sometimes. If you don't take the initiative to reach out…..."

Speaking of this, Rhode stretched out his hand and placed it in front of Lilian.

"Then, they won't hold anything. Because they don't know if they should do it."

“……………………………………………………”

Lilian stared silently at the palm of Rhodes who reached in front of him, and hesitated for a moment, then she raised her head, as if she wanted to ask something, but at this time, Rhodes smiled slightly.

"So now, would you like to hold my hand? Li?"

Lilian didn't say anything, but soon the girl stretched out her little hand and held Rhode tightly.

The road ahead was still difficult, blurry, and the future could not be seen. But at this time, Lilian suddenly felt that her heart was no longer as hesitant as before, because at this moment, there was one more person beside her, and the man was holding his hand and whisperingly told himself that he would set off with him.

For Lilian, her journey was no longer alone.

Sonia returned to open the door and returned to her room. The fatigue at the banquet made her sigh. She saw with her own eyes that Andre had received the blessings and rewards of His Majesty of the Dragon of Light. He was so excited and so excited. Sonia knew what this meant to Andre, but now, she no longer had any feelings for that man. Even if she saw his smile, it was just an extremely unfamiliar expression for Sonia. But even so, Sonia was still very happy, not because of Andre, but because of Rhode. Her master finally seized everything she wanted. Until now, when she remembered that night, the scene where Rhode was playing with her randomly in front of Andre, it still made Sonia feel unbearable. Since she completely dedicated her body to Rhode, Sonia felt that she was more and more inseparable from this man.

And the smile that had once been hidden in her memory had completely left her mind and memory.

And just as Sonia took off her coat and was about to rest, suddenly a voice came from behind her.

"Good evening, Sonia."

“…………………!!”

Hearing this strange voice, Sonia turned around in surprise, but when she saw Rhode sitting on the chair leisurely, Sonia suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then she quickly walked to Rhode and lowered her head.

"Hello, master, may I ask, you are here so late..."

Speaking of this, Sonia raised her head, her eyes full of anticipation. Although there was still a slight pain under her body until now, this made Sonia more and more urgently get played with and ravaged by Rhodes in order to make the pain worse, and completely tear her body and mind like that night.

"I know what you are thinking, but it's a pity that I have something to discuss with you this time."

Recognizing Sonia's expectant expression, Rhode raised his lips and a few smiles appeared. When he heard Rhode's answer, Sonia was a little disappointed in her heart, but she still calmed down her mood and asked.

"Master, what are your instructions?"

“It’s very simple.”

Speaking of this, Rhode suddenly stood up, and he came to Sonia and stared at her.

"Sonia……………… Are you interested in becoming the president of the Council of Light?”

"Why?"

When Sonia heard Rhode's sudden speech, she was stunned. Indeed, once upon a time, she had such expectations. However.........Sonia now gave up. Beside Rhode, she found that everything she had expected was a piece of shit. And those formerly high-ranking members seemed to be just like this in Sonia's eyes. Because of this, Sonia's attitude in the Council of Light became more and more determined. But Sonia did not expect that it was precisely because of her change that made her position in the Council of Parliament more stable. If it were the past, Sonia would have thought of taking the opportunity to go further, but now, she has no such thought at all.

"I did have such an idea, Master. But now I have given up. As long as I can do things for you, I will no longer take the debris of the light council. And... even if I hope it is an unfulfilling task, because the light council has never had the tradition of letting women rule...."

"I know all of these, but it doesn't matter, so what if it's my order?"

"No matter what you want me to do, I will do it for you, Master."

"very good."

Hearing Sonia's answer, Rhode nodded with satisfaction, then he stretched out his hand, raised Sonia's chin and stared at her.

"So now, I have a very important task to hand over to you..."

Rod looked at Sonia's eyes and then spoke.
