Chapter 141

A war about the survival of mankind ended quietly in this ocean far away from the mainland.

The priests fixed the body of the evil god. A group of priests were swallowed up before, and now everyone is looking for them.

As the 'hero' who finally fought against the evil god, Athos walked to the deck exhausted physically and mentally after talking with the commander-in-chief, wanting to take a good rest.

On the deck, Athos saw a large number of wounded.

In addition, he also saw his sister, Lucia.

Lucia was using the healing technique, and she held a group of colored lights in her hands. Following her gaze, those lights enveloped the wounded on the ship like flowing water, slowly treating the injured.

When he saw Lucia, Athos' tense spirit relaxed a little, he pulled out a smile, walked to Lucia's side, and rubbed Lucia's little head with his hand.

"Brother, you're back." Lucia pressed his head against Athos' hand, trying to push his hand off his head, "Are you hurt too?"

"No." Athos replied without changing his face. Although he was injured a little in the battle, Athos has now fully recovered with his amazing physical fitness. "How about your side?"

"And Mistry protects me, of course it's fine." Lucia replied, "Mistry is still very powerful."

"Hmm." Athos replied unhappily.

Standing on the side, Mistry, who watched Lucia and Athos chatting, took no time to join in, and seemed to say to Athos very gently, "Of course, I will definitely protect Lucia, please rest assured. Leave Lucia to me."

Athos resisted the urge to glance at Mistry, and answered in a straight-forward manner, "Thank you very much."

"You're welcome." Mistry smiled, "After all, Lucia is my future wife, and of course I will take good care of her."

This god has been inadvertently mentioning his relationship with Lucia recently, a situation that Athos had never noticed in the past.

Although Mistry used to be a little more friendly only when he was around Lucia, at the same time, he seemed to be confident, as if everything was under control.

And now Mistry always looks restless. He sticks to Lucia more than before, and his eyes are always on Lucia.

"Lucia, there are new wounded here!" The priest in the distance called out to Lucia, who was holding a beautiful light in his hand.

"I'm here!" Lucia trotted over, the light in her hand fell on the ground tick by tick, and gradually disappeared.

When Mistry was about to follow Lucia, he was stopped by Athos. He looked around and asked Mistry in a low voice, "So, is the evil god destroyed?"

"Destroyed?" Mistry raised his eyebrows. "What are you thinking? The evil god can never be eliminated."

Athos was stunned.

"When any creature is born, it has already laid a foreshadowing of its demise." Mistry chased Lucia and watched the light in her hand to heal the wounded, "This evil god is the fear of mankind, An amalgamation of grief and despair, how do you get rid of these emotions?"

Hearing Mistry's words, Athos understood that unless humanity completely disappeared, these emotions would never disappear.

"The evil god in this world is a spiritual aggregate, and in other worlds, there will be other 'evil gods', but those may be beyond your comprehension." Mistry said easily.

Athos looked at Mistry and found his expression so relaxed, as if he was not talking about the destruction of a species.

"And what about God?" Athos couldn't help asking. "And what about you?"

"Me?" Mistry pondered for a moment, "Probably, Lucia...is my evil god. If there is someone who can kill me, it must be Lucia."

"Lucia would not do such a thing." Athos replied.

Although he was very upset to see Mistry, he would not deceive others about this kind of thing. After all, it was his sister, and Athos still hoped Lucia would be happy.

"I know." Mistry's gentle eyes added a hint of melancholy, "I just think how fragile and short human life is."

Seeing Mistry's aloof face, Athos felt unhappy for a while, and he couldn't help but slammed the armor on Mistry's shoulder.

"What's wrong?" Mistry looked at Athos in confusion, not understanding why he was hitting himself again.

"You think too much." Athos rolled his eyes, "I think humans are much stronger than you think."

"Really?" Mistry smiled. "I hope so."

The finishing work went on for two full days. Due to Lucia's super healing technique, the wounded who were found were rescued as long as they still had a breath, so the loss was not big.

Athos did not report the turn-back conversation with Mistry, and instead devoted himself to the finishing touches on the battlefield.

The body of the evil god was also temporarily fixed here by the temple organization, ready to continue further research.

After that, except for the priests who stayed nearby and began to study the composition of the evil god, everyone else returned to Serancha, and everything returned to ordinary life.

Athos has made a huge contribution in the battle against the evil god. This time he will be directly promoted to the deputy commander of the Serancha Knights, which can be regarded as changing his destiny through hard work.

Although the transfer order has not yet come down, Robin, who is the next city lord, came to visit and tell this matter, which is a certainty.

Flora, who selected the queen in the royal capital Lloyd, successfully defeated all other opponents and became the candidate for the queen of the empire with her excellent skills.

To become queen requires a grand wedding, and before the wedding, Flora returned to Seranga to be married.

Lucia and Robin were Flora's good partners, and Flora invited them to her home on the third day after returning.

The maid made the tea, prepared the dessert and left, leaving only three friends sitting in the garden drinking tea and eating dessert together.

"You're free to invite us so soon, I thought you would continue to be busy for a while." Although there is no maid, Robin has consciously poured black tea for the three of them. This is the son of an archduke.

"There are still many people who come to visit." Flora smiled and took a sip of the black tea. "But I don't need to see everyone. Appropriate rejection can make them understand the identity gap between us."

"That's right, after all, you are the future queen of the empire." Robin was a little curious, "Our majesty is not so easily impressed, how did you do it?"

"Thank you Lucia for this, she told me some inside stories." Flora looked at Lucia with a smile, "Lucia, when are you going to get married?"

Lucia was trying to eat biscuits, but the topic suddenly turned to herself, "Me? I'm not in a hurry."

"I think some people are already in a hurry." Flora smiled slightly, thinking of Mistry's letter, "I thought, my hand back, you are all engaged, and the engagement ceremony hasn't started yet? ?"

"No." Lucia held the cute teacup and looked down at her own reflection in the teacup.

"Why?" Flora couldn't help asking.

Although Mistry's letter also wrote about her troubles, trying to find out how Flora could please Lucia, but Flora's question at this time was of course not for Mistry.

She cares more about her friends than Mistry.

After all, they grew up together, and Flora watched Lucia like Mistry more and more. She couldn't think of what happened to make Lucia hesitate.

"Just...I don't think I'm confident anymore."

Hearing such words from Lucia's mouth, Flora and Robin were all surprised.

"You don't feel confident?" Robin couldn't help repeating, "You dared to beat me to the ground when you were eight years old. You said you didn't have confidence??"

"What's wrong with hitting you?" Lucia narrowed her eyes, "It's a shame for you to beat me!"

Robin didn't catch his breath and almost choked to death, but he still persuaded bitterly, "What's wrong with you? Lucia, you are so beautiful, smart and cute, you don't need to be confident at all."

"That's different, I'm not special anymore." Lucia lay on the table and buried her chin in her clothes, which made her look even more pitiful, "I'm the one who can be as long as he wants. Anytime you can find another girl."

"Where can you find another one at any time?" Seeing such a poor Lucia, Robin was no longer surprised, but patiently persuaded, "Lucia, what are you thinking, of course you are not I'm not bragging about a girl who can find another girl at any time, I have seen many women, and there is only one like you."

"You don't understand." Lucia plunged her head into his arm, "You stinky man."

What else was Robin saying, Flora pressed Robin on his arm and motioned for Robin to stop.

"Lucia." Flora gently held Lucia's hand, "Don't worry, no one will dislike you."

"Yes." Lucia was very annoyed, "I baked Mistry's cookies today, and when I brought them to him, he didn't look happy... Is it because I didn't make them as good as his? "

"It's not much better than what he made." Robin couldn't help but said again, and was stepped on by Flora.

Robin shut up.

Flora asked, "Have you asked why Mr. Mistry was upset?"

"No." Lucia shook her head in her arms, "I don't know what to say, and Mistry is always happy when he likes me, I don't want to upset him."

Robin was so angry that he heard it on the side, and directly exclaimed, "You are a fart!"

Flora stepped on Robin's instep even harder with her high heels, letting him take a deep breath and grinned at Flora.

"I've never liked any man, Lucia." Flora said softly, "but I understand your feelings... I'm always worried, there are boring young ladies like me everywhere, but you are like this, Lucia. I'm so unique, I'm worried you'll leave me."

"How boring are you!" Even if Lucia was still sad, when she heard Flora say this, she immediately raised her head to deny it, "Flora is gentle, beautiful, considerate and understanding, I like Flora the most. Lola!"

"Me too, I like Lucia the most." Flora gently wiped Lucia's tears, "Every time I have such worries, I will think of everything we have experienced, I know, you You won't leave me, you are my best friend."

"So, I think Mistry is the same, Lucia, after so many things, how can you like this kind of emotion and disappear? You are sad, we will only worry about you, comfort you, How can you be unhappy?"

"Really?" Lucia asked pitifully.

"Of course it's true." Flora replied with 120,000 tenderness, "Will you leave me because I'm in a bad mood?"

"Maybe it will." Lucia whispered, "After all, there is no dutiful son in front of the bed for a long time."

"At this time, you just need to answer 'no'." Robin rolled his eyes, "Really, Lucia, even a girl like you will cry when you have emotional problems."

"That's really embarrassing." Lucia beat Robin on the shoulder, "I'm so sorry for letting you down by crying."

Seeing her two little friends start bickering again, Lucia also regained her former vitality. Flora smiled and watched on the sidelines, occasionally pulling a little sideways.

After the pleasant afternoon tea time was over and Flora sent Lucia and Robin away, she called her housekeeper and asked the housekeeper to send Mistry a banquet invitation, inviting him to attend tonight's dinner. party.

In the past few days since she came back, Flora has met different people every day and held various banquets every night.

Taking a few hours this afternoon to meet with my friends is almost an extravagant luxury.

Therefore, the solution of Mistry's affairs can only be put on the banquet at night.

Before the party started, Flora was thinking about how to tell Mistry about it while she was putting on makeup.

First of all, Lucia certainly had some problems. For example, she looked forward and backward and refused to share her heart with Mistry, so Mistry didn't understand what she was thinking.

But it is understandable for girls to have a little secret in their relationship. The point is that Mistry made Lucia so uneasy, so Lucia was worried that Mistry would be angry after she said it.

So in the final analysis, it was Mistry's fault.

After a set of flawless logic, Flora had already made a preliminary draft of what she was going to say tonight, and was only ready to play it on the spot when Mistry came.

The banquet was held as scheduled, and Flora saw Mistry in the crowd.

During the social break, Flora was also observing Mistry and found that Mistry had also changed a lot.

His attire was the same as in the past, polite and gentlemanly, not even at Lloyd's banquet in the slightest.

It's just that his expression has changed a bit. Although the calmness and alienation of the past are still there, at this moment, there is also a trace of worry and melancholy in his eyebrows, and he glances at Flora from time to time.

Due to his handsome appearance and temperament, Flora found that many ladies and wives went to talk to Mistry, but they were all driven away impatiently.

After drying Mistry for a while, Flora pretended to be sorry and went to him, "Sorry for keeping you waiting, Mr. Mistry."

"It's nothing." Mistry smiled, "Miss Flora, are you free now?"

"Of course." Flora replied.

The two found a corner of the banquet hall and started talking.

Flora didn't speak first, but waited for a while. Sure enough, Mistry couldn't help but ask, "Did you receive my letter?"

"I received it," Flora replied. "Actually, I'm also very curious as to why the two of you are like this."

"I concealed an important matter from Lucia." Mistry replied, and he sighed with some annoyance. "This matter will not affect her life, but she is very concerned about it."

Flora was noncommittal.

For aristocratic marriages, it is common for husband and wife to conceal from each other. The more crucial things are, the more they must be concealed to the end. It is best to bring the secret into the coffin.

She can completely understand Mistry's thoughts, so she needs a little time to think about how to persuade Mistry against her own value in doing things.

"I think there's nothing wrong with concealing." Flora finally chose to explain frankly, "Although I'm not married, I have lived in concealment since I was a child. I lied to my parents, my brothers and sisters, and of course, I He also deceived His Majesty."

"But that's my life, and I don't expect any love in my marriage. But is that what you want?"

"Of course not," Mistry denied. "I love Lucia, and I hope she loves me as well."

"Of course Lucia loves you. Although I don't want to admit it, you are more important to her than the rest of us."

Mistry finally showed a somewhat sincere smile.

"She has a bit of a childish temper, so when facing you, she looks forward and backward, afraid that she has done something wrong and loses you." Flora sighed, "She is always moderate to others, but in her own In front of family and friends, it seems like they will never grow up the same."

"I know it's unfair to you, but I still hope you can be more considerate to her, after all, she has always liked you so much, you ask me why she changed, why she looks unhappy... Because she is trying to change Azi You want to be the right person for you."

"The person who suits me?" Mistry was puzzled. "Lucia doesn't need to change. I will like her whatever she becomes."

"But Lucia doesn't know." Flora replied, "She is not confident in the relationship between you, so she is working hard, and such efforts also make her feel at ease."

Mistry thought, "Is that so?"

"Well, as Lucia's friend, I hope you can recognize her efforts. Although you think it's unnecessary, please encourage her." Flora said softly, "After all, this is her very, very hard work. I came up with a way to be worthy of you and continue to love you."
