Lilian is a genius, which is something that teachers in any subject will recognize, no matter the past or the present.
Not only in terms of extraordinary powers, but also in painting, musical instruments, mathematics, and literature. Since she was a child, Lilian has shown strong talents in all aspects. When she understands the situation, the girl will switch her mind to think about the problem.
The letter sent by Noelle is ridiculous if only military considerations are considered, and it is even suspected to be deliberately embarrassing. Therefore, Audrey showed a disgusting attitude, but Lilian was careful. After considering it, I felt wrong.
Noelle Hizkrit, as the princess of St. Mestre, has not shown too strong an anti-Austinian tendency. The first person, and in the relationship with Lilian, the two sides have also continued to heat up recently, and there is no reason to deteriorate.
So if the possibility of provoking trouble is eliminated, and the prejudice is removed and just read this letter, then there will be many problems that can be found.
"This letter...it feels a bit wrong."
"Huh? Your Highness, you mean, this is not written by the princess?"
"No, I believe it is her letter. It should be sincere to get my help, but... she seems to be suggesting something to me."
"hint?"
After hearing Lilian's words, the maid blinked a little incomprehensibly, while the black-haired and purple-pupilled girl nodded slightly in silence.
Although Noelle's letter is simple and clear, the language style is quite different from usual. It is written by the girl. This sense of violation has always made Lilian very concerned, and after thinking about it, the girl can think of only one possibility.
That's why Noelle deliberately used these words when writing this letter, in order to let Lilian see the clues. Her purpose is probably far from letting Lilian assist in military operations, but for some reason. Can't write it clearly in the letter.
As for this reason, Lilian had actually guessed a little, it was probably the Austin Empire's monitoring of Lilian.
In recent years, the contradiction between Liliane and Emperor Lucas has not eased, but has become more acute due to a series of actions by the girl. However, in the context of humans uniting and fighting against aliens, Lucas is also unable to guard the front line. What does Lilian do.
Her Royal Highness’s impressive record has become an indispensable force for the coalition army. Unless the aliens die, they will be almost untouchable on the face of it. However, one of the consequences of the closeness of the two sides is that the Austin Empire has Lilian's surveillance is getting tighter and tighter.
All the letters that Lilian received need to be sent to the Fortress of Noyce through the channels of the Austin Empire. In the process, there is not too much hands and feet that can be done. The girl can say with certainty that the letters in hand can be seen in them. The first person in the content is definitely not herself.
The contradiction between Lucas and Lilian, as well as the surveillance of it by the Austin Empire spy system, these Noelles, who are the princess and the next heir of the church country, must know, and therefore used this method to imply Lilian There is something unspeakable, but even so, the girl with black hair and purple pupils still finds it difficult to make a decision easily.
"Is there any intelligence in the coalition regarding this operation?"
"No, Your Highness, there is currently no intelligence on this operation outflow."
"Is the intelligence blocked? Is it only for the entire Austin Empire, or..."
The girl who was talking to herself like this slightly narrowed her purple eye pupils, feeling the situation more and more weird, and the maid beside her was also lost in thought.
After the human united front confronted aliens, intelligence sharing has become the norm. Operations of this scale must normally be reported, but Lilian has not received any news before that.
What does the Church of St. Mestre want to do
The girl who was thinking about this problem fell into deep thought, and Audrey, who hesitated for a moment, also said her own thoughts.
"His Royal Highness, the surveillance of our country has become tighter and tighter. If we rush to send troops, it is likely to stimulate His Majesty the Emperor and cause trouble for our future actions."
"...It may be true, but I always have a hunch that this time the situation seems unusual."
"Then you mean..."
"...Let the eleventh to fifteenth knights attack and support."
Hearing Lilian's thoughts, Audrey couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly, with a look of surprise on her face.
The eleventh to fifteenth knights, this can be said to be the core force in Lilian’s hands. Each knight has a staff of 20,000 people, a total of 100,000, all of which are composed of veterans of the Neuss Fortress. The warriors who followed Lilian from the beginning were also the most loyal and strongest fighters under her command.
Although it did not come out all the way, sending such a core force to help is enough to show Lilian’s sincerity. To be honest, Audrey felt that sending one hundred thousand elite soldiers with just one letter was a bit overwhelming. But looking at Lilian who had already made a decision, the maid didn't say much.
After all, there are more important things waiting for Audrey to complete.
"Then, Your Highness, it's almost time for dinner."
"... ... oh, I understand now."
After processing Noelle’s letter, the black-haired and purple-eyed girl looked at the sky outside the window, stood up from the desk and came to the dining table, while Audrey began to present the food that had been prepared one by one. .
In the past year or so, because of morning sickness, eating has been very torturous for Lilian, but for the safety of the child in the abdomen and avoiding clues, Lilian insisted on eating regularly every day to supplement nutrition.
The body of an extraordinary person can survive without eating because of the alienation, but the child in the abdomen is a mortal womb. The baby who cannot absorb the magic element can only rely on food for nutrition. This situation cannot be changed. Lilian can All you have to do is adapt.
Fortunately, after a long period of exploration, Audrey and others have found some ways to suppress morning sickness, such as redstone salt that can remove most of the fishy smell. As for fruits and vegetables, most of them are juiced and added with honey. Make the taste better.
Tasting the food in her mouth, Lilian's expression didn't change much, but she looked at her abdomen and her gaze became softer, and Audrey finally let go of her heart when she saw this, and turned to inquire about the girl's recent feelings.
What to say while eating to make the girl divert some attention. This was an order from Liliane. At first, Audrey was quite at a loss. However, after a year, she has formed a habit and has become a habit. The two fixed time for small talk.
"His Royal Highness, have you felt any discomfort in your body recently? Please tell me in time if you have any, I'll deal with it early."
"There is nothing wrong... No, maybe there is a little bit."
"Um?"
Hearing Lilian's words like this, Audrey's pupils shrank for a moment, and her attention suddenly became concentrated, while looking at the serious maid, the black-haired and purple-eyed girl smiled bitterly, not knowing how to describe it for a while.
"I always feel that the curse power seems to be missing recently."
"A few? You mean..."
"It means literally, it's a bit more expensive than in the past, and I haven't found the reason."
Lilian, who was saying this, looked at her body a little confused, but Audrey was relieved when she heard this, and did not appear to be too nervous.
Although Lilian's strength is strong, her physical condition has been very unstable in the past year. Compared with other problems, it is not a big deal that the curse power is a little less, and there are many possible reasons, such as a new round. Body alienation, or to make up for the wounds left by previous battles.
The Battle of Stallo was a large-scale battle between humans and aliens last year. It was also a battle that determined the fate of the two sides. In this battle, all the elites were brought out. Lilian also personally led the army on the expedition, and with a codename [Sword] Ghost], the king of the alien race holding a sword had a brief confrontation.
Although the opponent was powerful, under the siege of Lilian's endless ancient Austin Empire army, the king of the race chose to retreat, but in this battle, the girl's arm was slightly injured.
Due to [Sword Demon]'s weird curse power will attach to the wound, Lilian's injury is very slow to recover, this time it is likely that the girl's body is automatically destroying the last remaining curse power.
Audrey was not nervous thinking about this, but based on the principle of prudence, the maid lady decided to take the procedure seriously.
"That's it... I see, I will check it for you tomorrow, and please have a good rest tonight."
"Well, today's official business is almost finished, don't worry."
Nodding slightly in response to the maid's instructions, Lilian put down the knife and fork to end the dinner, cleaned up the tableware, and helped the girl to wash, Audrey bowed and exited the room, and Lilian began to rest before going to bed in the bedroom.
Before going to bed, her Royal Highness would usually read some literary books, which is her interest all the time, but today for unknown reasons, Lilian felt a little uneasy.
Gently closing the book, the black-haired girl turned her head and looked out the window, and found that the stars in the night sky were very bright tonight. After thinking for a while, the girl stood up and opened the door to the balcony outside the bedroom.
-------------------------------------------------- -----------
The Neuss Fortress at night is different from the daytime. It is extremely quiet under military management. Good military discipline makes the soldiers more self-disciplined, and this is why they can become elites in the human army.
The soldiers on the distant city wall stood silently guarding the city under the reflection of torches, their eyes on the plains were meticulous, and the sound of the patrol team’s boots landing was uniform, just like the soldiers undergoing inspection, and Lilian, who was on the heights, watched this. The scene nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at the stars in the sky silently.
Uneasy, this has always been a serious topic for high-level transcendents. As a representative of intuition that has surpassed perception to some extent, the flusteredness of high-level transcendents often means that something big is happening.
Maybe it’s about me, maybe it’s about people around me. In this case, I don’t say that I must hit every time. At least the success rate is more than half. Because of this, Lilian did not dare to be careless after this situation, but walked out. The room began to look around.
After a cursory observation, the girl can be sure that everything inside the fortress is operating normally, and the outside of the city seems to be very peaceful at present, there is no sign of the alien army's pressure, just like most nights, the fortress of Noyce is still maintained tonight. Stable and peaceful.
In other words, is the problem on my side
Lilian's expression was slightly solemn when she thought about it, and after thinking about it for a moment, the girl turned her gaze to her body.
Recently, Lilian has always felt that the curse power in her body will be lost inexplicably. She has mentioned this to Audrey, but what the girl did not say is that she actually has a vague feeling, that is, the curse power in her body. It doesn't seem to be lost, but swallowed.
I have to say that such a situation has never been felt by the girl, and it is not recorded in any literature, but Lilian is almost certain that this is probably the reality that happened to her, and she also has some guesses at the source. .
Looking at the broad night sky, worry flashed in the eyes of the black-haired and purple-eyed girl, thinking about the problems in her heart, she unconsciously placed her hands on her lower abdomen.
The child in the body, this is the only motivation for Lilian to persist after that person disappears. It is also the existence that the girl as a mother cares most about. For this love crystallization with her beloved, Lilian has even begun to talk to the emperor. Lucas stood up against each other, but now a problem appeared in front of the girl's eyes.
That is this little life that hasn't been born yet, it seems a little unusual.
In Lilian's guess, the existence that absorbed her curse power was the child in the womb, but one thing I have to say is that this is impossible in the current cognition of the humans in the Xia world.
When human babies are in their mothers, they can only survive through the nutrition and energy brought by ordinary food, and cannot absorb the magic power formed by magic elements. This is the iron law from ancient times to the present, and it is also the reason why Lilian must eat every day. .
No matter how talented the genius is, he is still a mortal when he is in his mother's belly. This is true whether it is Hezkrit, who has the blood of angels, or Sorovia, who has the blood of the highland elf, not to mention. Lilian and Roja who said they were purely human.
At the very beginning, Lilian had also thought about the reason for choosing the blood of the king, but she quickly denied this possibility. After all, let’s not mention that choosing the blood of the king has always required awakening. It is Luo as a parent. A and Lilian were just ordinary people when they were born.
Of course, if she insists on explaining, Lilian will not find the answer. After all, the child in the belly can absorb the curse power. Although it has never been heard in humans, it is commonplace in another group—that is, ancient times. The mythical race of the period.
Giants, dragons, and angels, these races that disappeared in ancient times grew by absorbing curse power during the embryonic period, and they were born with extraordinary powers. This is why they are called mythical races, but this situation obviously does not apply to everyone. It's Lilian and Roja of humans.
Could it be that my intuition was wrong
After thinking about it for a long time, the black-haired girl had such a thought in her mind. With a helpless sigh, she turned and walked to the bedroom, preparing to go back to the room to rest, but at the moment Lilian was about to enter the room, there was a slight light. But suddenly appeared behind her, making the girl's eyes widened suddenly.
"Who!"
At the moment when she felt the light, Lilian turned around fiercely, and the curse power in her body burst out, and the barrier against the assassin quickly spread out to cover it. The knight in heavy armor also appeared from both sides of the girl at the same time, the wizard of Ancient Austin. We floated into the air to fill the gaps in defense.
In an instant, the wide balcony was already impenetrable, but when the girl turned her head and really saw the person behind her, Lilian couldn't help being taken aback.
At the edge of the balcony at this time, where Lilian once stood, a figure exuding a faint light appeared at some point. It was a young girl who seemed to be young. She closed her eyes and her long dark hair drifted away in the wind. , With fair skin and lovely appearance, only a small age can see the future allure.
When she saw a child suddenly appeared behind her, Lilian’s eyes widened slightly with surprise, but she decided to attack after a short while. As the saying goes, something abnormal must be a monster. The more unexpected the enemy, the less it will be. To the effect, especially for assassins, it is not uncommon to become children.
Thinking of the girl here with a sharp gaze, the knight next to him immediately swarmed up, and at the same moment, the little girl at the end of the balcony opened her eyes. Her golden eyes widened suddenly when she saw Lilian's figure, and then she was like a conditional launch. A word was said.
"mother... ... "
"!"
When I heard this word, Lilian’s purple pupils suddenly shrank, and the sword blades of the knights also stopped in the air. However, for these, the little girl with black hair and golden eyes didn’t care, she just looked at Lilian. , Trembling with excitement and tears.
"It succeeded... It really succeeded! No, no, it's not the time to talk about this!"
"you... ... "
Staring at the girl who was a few years old and had almost the same hair color as Loya, Lilian, who had not recovered from the shock, asked subconsciously, but before she could speak, the girl suddenly looked at the girl and shouted. .
"Mom, go and save dad! You must do your best to save dad! Otherwise..."
The girl who said this seemed to want to tell Lilian something, but the light on her body began to flicker as soon as the words were halfway through, and her voice suddenly cut off. The next moment, the girl's body suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared here. It's normal in the world, and it wasn't until this time that Lilian reacted from surprise.
"Hey? Wait, wait!"
Looking at the clearing where the girl disappeared, Lilian suddenly rushed forward after a slight daze, but no matter if it was a figure or a light, there was nothing left there.
how come? There is no spatial fluctuation, that is to say time? In that case, the kid...
Thinking of the girl's name to herself, the black-haired girl couldn't help but stared again, standing on the balcony for a moment in a daze, but the next moment, Lilian suddenly remembered what the girl left for herself.
She said, save dad? immediately
If the child is real, then her so-called father is not...
At the moment when she realized that her beloved might still be alive, Lilian's body trembled with excitement, but a question appeared in the girl's mind.
Lilian now has no clues about Roja. Even if he wants to save people, where is he going to save them
... ... and many more! She said to go all out to save dad, all out
When she remembered what the girl said, a strong sense of disobedience suddenly rose in Lilian's heart. After a moment of thinking, she suddenly turned her head and looked at the room behind her.
[Hope you can give your full support]
"!"
Thinking of these words, Lilian turned abruptly, she rushed into the study and picked up the letters on the desk, staring at the words that she didn't understand, her eyes lit up.
