Noren looked up and asked, "What would you think?"
Novia was stunned and silent for a moment: "If it were me, I would be very sad."
Noren thought for a moment and then asked, "If it were you, how would you comfort the person you loved?"
Novia was thinking about how to answer.
Suddenly, a scorching, brilliant golden light appeared in the distance.
It was as if the sun was high in the sky, illuminating the darkness of wind and tide.

In the ruins of the underground world, someone picked up a bullet shell and fell into deep thought.
"This is 100 percent the captain's hot weapon."
Hayden squatted down, revealing only a pair of pure black pupils under the steel mask, and said in a hoarse voice: "Not long ago, someone had an extremely fierce battle here."
Then he stood up and looked at the collapsed boulders and charred burn marks in the distance, frowning and saying, "Well, there are also traces of artillery bombardment. It's really terrible."
The demon wings behind Tria fluttered, and it hovered in the air, looking down: "There are footprints that were crushed by a huge force. If nothing unexpected happens, one of them is a warlock above level 5. There are also collapsed footprints on the warehouse. From the perspective of force, they are not as strong as level 5, but they are very close."
"So, who is fighting whom here?"
Liz crossed her arms and smacked her lips, saying, "Look over there, those metal pipes leading to the surface look like they were squashed by a pair of giant hands. It's really scary."
The night watchmen fell silent, and no one dared to draw conclusions easily.
Originally, today was the first battle after the Night Watchmen mastered the black magic.
As a result, the battle was over before it even began.
The Administrative Bureau actually took one step ahead of them and confiscated the property of those nobles who had collaborated with the enemy and committed treason.
And in the underground world, an extremely fierce battle broke out.
Gulp…
Old Neil swallowed and said nothing.
At this moment, his pair of weathered and wise eyes had turned into strange black pupils.
There was a strange and ominous aura.
Yes, as a fifth-level psychic sorcerer, he has also mastered black magic.
Originally, as the chief steward of the palace, he was responsible for handling a series of trivial matters for His Majesty.
Although he did not join the night watch, he was still helping with the work.
Since Owl's death, due to the severe shortage of manpower, he finally became a member of the Night's Watch.
And the black magic he mastered was dark divination.
Now it is considered the central brain of the Night Watch.
"Why is there the captain's hot weapon here?"
Hayden couldn't help but say, "It can't be that the captain is still alive?"
Everyone was slightly stunned.
Old Neil's face turned pale and he slapped him on the back of the head: "Bullshit!"
Hayden was stunned.
Lord Neil has always been gentle and easy-going, how could he suddenly become so rude!
Old Neil couldn't help but look up and glanced at the small and exquisite golden shadow.
The empress did not come in her real body, but in her spirit form.
At this moment, she was only the size of a palm, with her arms folded across her chest, overlooking the earth.
Petite yet majestic.
"Huh, fortunately, no reaction."
Old Neil breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a reason why he looked so nervous.
Because not long ago, after the night watchman was ordered to go out, he met a man.
Yes, that’s the person under the world tree.
After a brief, cordial and friendly conversation, his old bones were almost frightened to death.
No one knows what the content of that conversation was.
Only he himself knew that from now on, when facing His Majesty, he would have to bear a mountain of pressure.
If you are not careful, you may end up being torn into pieces.
"Stop arguing, there is only one truth."
Old Neil coughed dryly and said calmly, "Look at those squashed steel pipes, they are obviously the work of metal magic. Look at these hot weapons, they are obviously left by the captain. Then who in this world has both metal magic and the weapons left by the captain?"
Everyone was stunned and then reacted.
"Obviously, it's Miss Nolen."
Old Neil said firmly: "But everyone knows that Miss Nolen doesn't have that brain."
Everyone nodded vigorously.
Although everyone likes Miss Nolen, one thing has to be admitted.
Miss Nolen doesn't look very smart.
She is one of those natural, innocent, and ice-cold beautiful girls.
"So, all of this is the captain's will. The captain had already anticipated the existence of the traitors, and guessed that we would clash with them, so he left behind the instructions for using black magic."
Old Neil showed a look of deep sorrow and said sadly, "The captain had good intentions. He knew that we had just mastered the black magic and might not be able to use it skillfully, so he asked Miss Norn to help us deal with the enemy in advance, leaving us enough room for growth."
Tria was slightly startled, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes. She bit her lower lip and said softly, "Is that so? I'm being protected by the captain again."
Liz thought about it and said, "It does make sense."
"Is it?"
Hayden looked around and said suspiciously, "Miss Noren has already mastered metal magic? Even if she really learned it, this output is too terrifying, right?"
Old Neil slapped her again: "Ms. Noren's talent, is it your right to question it?"
Hayden: “…”
"The captain has a plan for everything. Of course, he will find a way to help Miss Norn advance!"
Old Neil couldn't help but raise his head: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
The empress ignored them completely.
She just raised her head, stared at the shattered dome, and fell into deep thought.
Because there is a large and obvious missing piece on the dome.
It didn't look like it was blown to pieces, nor did it look like it was cut.
Instead, it seemed to have evaporated into thin air.
It is so similar to the power of divine punishment that erupted on the Norma Plain.
"Sir Neil..."
The Empress said calmly, "Is this the result of your dark divination?"
Old Neil bowed his head respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty, that's it."
Just eight short words, spoken lightly.
But he knew that he would need to change his pants when he got back.
"Oh, then you can go ask Miss Nolen."
The empress looked away in disappointment and said calmly, "Sir Neil, where is the Summoning Stone that the Demon King gave me? Find it for me. I want to contact her."
She paused and said, "If Lord Li Xini originally used the power of the evil god, then theoretically this power is impossible to appear again. Apart from Lord Li Xini, that woman is the person who knows the evil god best in this world, and only she can give me the answer."
Old Neil was stunned.
The old body trembled slightly.
Chapter 142 No, it’s okay to be bitter! (Second update)
Late at night, there were lightning, thunder, wind and rain howling outside the window.
The hotel was silent, with only a room on the rooftop lit with warm candlelight.
"Today marks the eleventh month since I recovered my memory. Unlike the embarrassing predicaments in the past, I have finally escaped the surveillance and control of the Valerius family, and have my own connections and power."
"In Norma City, I accidentally obtained the Book of Truth, which allowed me to maximize my immortality. I also hugged the beautiful legs of the empress and became the second generation of Night Watchmen. I completed my plan in the Border War. Now, I am the director of the First Inspection Department of the Administration Bureau."
"At present, we are only one step away from awakening the power of the Demon King."
"According to my judgment, the probability of being cursed for eternity this time is as high as 99%, while the probability of failure is only 1%! Oh, isn't this a sure thing?"
"Your Majesty, as my chosen first wife, will never let me down. What? You asked me why my first wife is not Norn
Think carefully about it. As a person who gives liquids, I have to rank my wives by cup size. Of course, Norn is the smallest one! "
"In this world, only Nabai's snow can heal people's hearts. From Norma City all the way to the capital, my body and mind are actually very tired, but I know in my heart that I can't stop yet."
"Whether it's the demise of the Frostian family, or the real Valerius family, or that Zero, I feel extremely uneasy. I always feel like something is going to happen."
"I hope Novia can get some clues from her father and mother as soon as possible. If I can get Zero's body, I can also get the answer from Baime-chan."
"Regarding the Frostian family and the real Valerius, it's obvious that this has something to do with the teacher, the first generation. If I have time, I will ask him about it."
"Finally, it's about the Demon King. At first, I thought that it was a system and plug-in that I got after traveling through time, but when I learned that there was once a real, invincible Demon King in this world, I fell into deep doubt. Because everything has a cause and effect relationship. The power of the Demon King is no exception."
"If logic is self-consistent, then even the system cannot appear out of thin air. There must be a reason for its existence. Then, why am I the Demon King? Where does this power come from?"
"I think one day I will know the answer."
Li Xini put down the pen in his hand and turned to stare at the rainy scene outside the window.
He had just finished a shower, his hair was wet, and he was wearing loose pajamas, lying on the table.
The diary was filled with dense handwriting.
He was silent for a long time, then picked up a knife and lightly cut his wrist.
A bloodstain appeared and healed in an instant.
Eleven months ago, lines of writing appeared out of nowhere in his mind, letting him know that he was immortal and an unawakened demon king.
At first, Licinius did not believe it either.
I was just very careful and tried self-harming a few times, and I found that the injuries could really be healed instantly.
It was not until later, when he was convinced that if he continued to live like this, he would definitely be killed by his family, that he made up his mind and chopped off his own head.
From then on, he firmly believed in the Demon King.
Because he obtained the plug-in after recovering his memories of his previous life, he instinctively thought it was a system.
But when he learned that there was a real demon king in ancient times, he began to waver.
"Zero, the real Valerius."
Licinius held his forehead with his hand, his eyes became deep: "And the Frostian family, why did everyone die, but only Norn was left? What's so special about Norn?"
Now that he thought about it, his previous anxiety was not without reason. In fact, the danger had always been around.
It just didn't get close.
At this time, the bathroom door was opened and mist filled out.
Li Xini turned his head and was slightly startled: "Noren, why are you dressed like this?"
Norn tilted his head, his delicate face like ice and snow had no expression, his fair cheeks were flushed after bathing, his long platinum hair was tied behind his head, and had been steamed dry by magic.
