It is normal for Roya Akat to worry about Lilian Aqiman's situation.
As Xia’s only two owners of the blood of the king, Roja and Lilian, who have a blood relationship, are almost alive and dead to a certain extent, and their positions are basically the same.
Lilian is an unexpected situation for both the fallen and the holy society, and it is also a person that must be resolved. If something happens to Roja, then the next target of these cultists must be Lilian. .
And even if this is ruled out, among all the girls that Roja knows, Lilian is in the most difficult situation so far.
Because of her soft-heartedness to Roja, Lilian aroused the suspicion of Emperor Lucas of the Austin Empire. He even failed to participate in the joint conference of the nations of the world and was sent directly to the front line. For Shia’s countries , Austin Empire is not a good partner.
There are historical grudges on Rose's side. The Church of St. Meister has always been the enemy. The elders of the Kingdom of Knights are all descendants of the Twilight Sage’s Society. Because of the ancient Austin Empire, the new Austin Empire is also There is no good impression. As for Bronia, the country of scholars, neutrality is neutral. The problem is that there are not many people on the front line.
After such a lap, it can be seen that the popularity of the Austin Empire is poor, not to mention that Lilian has a debuff similar to being exiled, and it is normal to be in a bad situation.
But even so, even if there are still many worries in his heart, Roja feels that his senior sister will not have a bad life, because Roja really understands Lilian's abilities too much.
Whether it is the army of the ancient Austin Empire or the [Ten Cities], it can be described as the ultimate killer for large-scale battles. It is an ability that can easily change the direction of the battlefield. In terms of level, Lilian is already a source level. 2 out.
Except for a few Source Level 1 on the front line, I am afraid that no one can catch up with Lilian, who has chosen King's Blood and reached Source Level 2, and there is no more reliable factor on the battlefield than strength.
The young man who thought so looked at the investigation report attached to Sorovia’s house. According to the investigator’s description, Lilian’s fortress was one of the gateways of the Austin Empire. There have indeed been several fierce battles in the past six months. But just as Roja expected, due to Lilian's existence, these battles ended in a big victory.
However, what is strange is that after the winter, the offensive of the aliens began to gradually weaken, and the front line also seized the fighters and came a wave of small counterattacks. However, in the process, Lilian did not send troops. Instead, he did not move and asked the rear to add defensive equipment. .
In the report, the investigator felt a little puzzled about this, but because Liliane was indeed the front line and had a lot of big victories, he still gave the highest priority recommendation.
After reading this, Roja blinked and gave a high evaluation of the professionalism of the Sorovia family investigator, but she also had some doubts about Lilian's behavior.
The small counter-offensive in winter is not the first such military action, but is the practice in previous alien wars. Generally speaking, it is a matter of small danger and big profit, and it is also a good time to take the initiative to attack and make achievements.
Now Lilian, as a lost person who is sent to the border, wants to change her situation, what she needs most is credit. In fact, this kind of action is also a great deal for Lilian, as long as it is used reasonably. With good abilities, girls can even create the miracle of zero battle damage, and they will surely receive strong support from the soldiers at that time.
But because of such a good opportunity, Lilian actually let it go, which made Roya really do not understand.
Could it be said that something happened? Or... Lilian was injured
The boy who thought of this frowned and read the file repeatedly, but he didn't have the slightest clue, he could only give up temporarily.
In any case, the current boy can never contact Lilian, and after knowing this, all Roja can do is to silently pray for the girl in his heart.
Putting down the papers in his hand, the black-haired boy turned his head and looked at the clear sky after the light snow outside the window. For a while, his mood floated. However, what the boy didn't know was that at the far border, the black-haired and purple-eyed girl was also doing it. Difficult choices.
-------------------------------------------------- ---
The Neuss Fortress of the Austin Empire has always been called the death meat grinder by the soldiers on the border. This is not because of other reasons, but because of objective geographical factors.
The area defended by the Austin Empire does not have unique natural dangers like the St. Mestre State. It is mostly ordinary mountainous and hilly areas. Such terrain is inherently difficult to defend, and the Fortress of Neuss is on the front line. The protruding part is extremely vulnerable to the enemy's attack.
In history, this fortress has been breached several times. Every time, corpses are piled up like mountains and blood flows into rivers. This is where the name of the meat grinder comes from, and every alien war, the soldiers responsible for guarding here are also They are the most nervous and the heaviest.
However, this year, this situation has changed, and the reason is very simple, that is, the new fortress commander who arrived half a year ago.
One person, half a year, can be called a small variable in terms of number and time, but what everyone did not expect is that the arrival of the new commander, Queen Lilian, has completely changed everything here.
Since the spring of this year, aliens have launched several rounds of attacks on the Fortress of Neuss, which does not have a strong geographic advantage bonus. Under the leadership, the actual war dead were less than one-fifth of the predicted, and the battle was a big win.
If the merchant dared to sell his life with three times the profit, then less than one-tenth of casualties and victory would be a bargaining chip that would make the soldiers of the Fortress of Neuss crazy, and Lilian’s performance did conquer all of them. Soldier's heart.
Not to mention the pioneers, there are powerful strengths far beyond the scope of normal human understanding, coupled with the royal identity bonus, even the harshest soldiers will be convinced, and on the other hand, since coming to the fortress, Lilian was indeed diligent in government affairs and was gradually losing weight, and many people couldn't help but be moved.
Above the city wall, the high morale and active patrolling soldiers remained silent, and their depression and nervousness were two extremes. After a few wars, the current fortresses can be said to be united, conscientious and responsible. The goal is to reduce the burden on Her Royal Highness as a commander.
However, what everyone didn't know was that although Lilian had been exhausted for fortress affairs and consumed a lot of energy, this was not the reason for the wasting.
At the highest point of the fortress, in the beautifully decorated and classical room, the black-haired girl is sitting on the seat, looking at the food on the table in silence, and the purple pupils do not know what is thinking, but on the side of the table. , The maid chief Audrey watched her Royal Highness nervously, waiting for her action.
There is no doubt that there is no problem with the food. It is made by Audrey, whose cooking skills are comparable to celebrity chefs. It is also the taste that Lilian has been accustomed to eating since childhood. If it is usual, the maid will not have any worries at all, but This time it was different, because the girl's physical condition was different from before.
Audrey, who was watching the girl's state nervously, shook her hand slightly, and after a long time, under the gaze of the maid, the girl with black hair and purple pupils finally moved and gently picked up the tableware in front of her.
Lilian picked up the cutlery with ease, and cut the meat in the dish naturally. However, after the cut was done, the black-haired girl did not eat it immediately, but took a deep breath without expression. , The next moment the food was quickly delivered into the mouth.
"!"
At the moment when the fat-scented meat was in the mouth, Lilian's body trembled suddenly, frowned fiercely, and covered her mouth with her hand involuntarily, as if she was about to vomit out, and Seeing this girl, Audrey immediately picked up the plate next to her.
"Your Highness! You..."
"I'm fine."
Gently waved his hand to the maid beside him, the black-haired girl trembled for a moment, and swallowed the food in her mouth, but seeing Lilian's appearance, the brown-haired maid wrinkled her face unbearably. .
Since coming to Noyce Fortress, Lilian has been losing weight. The outside world has always believed that it was caused by overwork. However, Audrey, who is a girl's personal maid, knows that this is not the case.
The empress Lilian will lose weight, and there is only one reason, that is, she can't eat anything at all.
Regardless of how delicious the cooked meat, or the fresh vegetables and fruits, it is difficult for Lilian to swallow, and the reason for this result is also very simple, that is, every mother must go through the early pregnancy period. One of the most painful reactions-morning sickness.
Yes, Lilian is pregnant, this is an indisputable fact, and it is not recent, but half a year ago.
Half a year ago, Audrey, who was supposed to help Lilian maintain her power in the Austin Empire, suddenly received an order from her Royal Highness and was urgently transferred to the front line. The original maid was puzzled at this point. After all, she was an agent. Leaving is equivalent to giving up the support of many aristocrats in the country, which is extremely disadvantageous for girls.
However, after arriving here at the fastest speed, Audrey changed her mind, feeling that the support of the domestic aristocracy does not matter. After all... there is nothing more pregnant than the unmarried queen of the Austin Empire. It's even more impossible to expose, and this situation has almost penetrated Audrey's cognition.
In Audrey’s eyes, Lilian is a noble and cold existence like a goddess. She doesn’t say anything or is interested in any man. However, this time, the perfect imperial queen in the heart of such a girl actually jumped directly. After being in love, skipping the engagement, skipping the marriage, and directly fast forward to pregnancy and childbirth.
When she knew this, Audrey's brain was dizzy, and she suspected that Lilian had been deceived by some bad man because she had never been in love, so she was asked to come and cast the spell of abortion. Personal maid is part of the job, and it is also one of the necessary skills.
However, what Audrey did not expect was that Lilian did let her cast a spell, but it was not a abortion, but a stabilization.
Prenatal stabilization spell, which is a very complicated spell with very few uses. It is similar to time spell. Its function is to maintain the fetus in the pregnant woman's body during the operation stage and stop its growth and development for the longest time in the early stage of pregnancy. It can last for three years, and is generally used by female generals on the front line, and should be evacuated to the rear to concentrate on childbirth as soon as possible after use.
Audrey honestly couldn't understand Lilian's idea of keeping her child. After all, once this matter was revealed, Lilian would definitely lose out, and the risk was simply infinite.
If the child is knocked out, it can be reborn in the future, but if the child is saved, there will be no place to bury him if something goes wrong.
Audrey, who thought so, wanted to persuade her for a while, but when she saw the happy expression on the face of the girl stroking her abdomen that she had never seen before, the lady maid changed her mind.
Audrey gave up persuasion, because she knew it was useless, and Lilian couldn't change her mind no matter what she said, because what appeared on that face was already maternal love.
Lilian really loves herself and the child of the unknown man, and she has devoted her deep love to her. In this case, abortion is simply a fantasy.
Audrey, who had understood everything, obeyed Lilian’s orders, and the result of the curse also appeared. The morning sickness in the early pregnancy continued with the curse, and has been torturing Lily for six months. install.
Looking at the girl who was holding back vomiting in front of her body trembling slightly, Audrey was distressed and couldn't help but persuade:
"His Royal Highness, or just forget it, if you drink honey water as usual..."
"no."
Facing Audrey’s advice, the black-haired and purple-eyed girl gave firm opposition. She glanced at her slender wrist and at her flat abdomen. For a moment, Lilian’s face flashed with worry, and then she looked at her. He became firmer than ever before.
"...If you lose weight, the child will be in danger, and I must eat."
After saying this calmly, the black-haired girl cut the food into bite-sized cubes little by little, and then swallowed it one by one, enduring the pain. The whole meal process lasted for three full hours, and Lilian was almost exhausted.
After resting for a while, the black-haired and purple-eyed imperial queen regained some energy, and her eyes on her abdomen were relieved. After thinking for a while, the girl raised her head and asked the maid next to her.
"Is there any news about the Marquis of Acate from the religious country?"
