MTL - How To Wear a Goddess Statue-Chapter 84 Acht
When the second batch of relief supplies came from Wangcheng and arrived in Disimone, the relief work and post-disaster reconstruction were already on track.
This means that Eleuil's purpose of coming here is achieved, and the crown prince's mission of disaster relief can also end here.
The princess decided to lead the caravan to leave, to the final destination of this long journey - Acht.
Romul intends to return with the convoy delivering supplies.
Before departure, Eleuil ordered someone to create a royal coat of arms made of silver and inlaid it on the carriage. At this point, the identity of the caravan guard need not be mentioned again.
She will return to the capital as a princess.
In a spacious and bright carriage.
Luodus covered his eyes with a fluffy pure white ribbon, leaning back against the cushion, raised his head slightly and closed his eyes.
"Your food is here, Shepra." The princess sat beside Luotas and said to the golden eagle who had parked in the wrong place many times.
The golden eagle tilted its head, trying to get close to the gods. After all, the instinct to get close to the gods was no match for the thirst for food. Just as she was about to fly to the window on the other side, this position was occupied by her sister.
Another golden eagle picked up a piece of meat from Eleuil's hand, swallowed it with its neck up, and sneered from its throat.
The golden eagle Shepra was not to be outdone, and responded with a louder tweet, which came and went.
The road along the way began to become flat and wide, and it was obvious that it had reached the main road.
Eleuil nodded.
She had a smile on the corner of her mouth, there was no unnecessary waves in her eyes, and her state of mind was very stable.
Acht is the center where Horst's forces are entrenched, and Eleuil returning here with only one **** team is tantamount to a big gamble.
The risk is there, but it is also a kind of protection - who would believe that a princess with only a personal guard would have the intention of taking the throne?
Horst pays special attention to his reputation and image. If he wants to attack Eleuil regardless of the eyes of others, he must first weigh himself.
Of course, Eleuil didn't want to do things like this in the royal city.
The Queen's name can play a limited role. Her biggest advantage is still in the army. She will take Horst's call to return to Acht, just to make the most of herself identity, weakening the resistance in the later stage of the battle.
It's risky, but as long as it works...
"Speaking of which, no assassins have done anything recently."
Could it be that Horst finally figured it out and stopped wasting manpower?
Eleuil returned to her senses: "Perhaps I am worried about Romul, or I may feel that I am about to arrive in the king's city, and I can't make waves on his territory, so I will just wait until I arrive."
Maybe otherwise.
What kind of plot would make Horst give up the assassination along the way?
Thinking of a possibility, Eleuil pressed the corner of his lips, and disgust flashed in his eyes.
Anyway, it's just a matter of adaptability.
At this time, there was still a long way to go to the royal city, Luodus removed the plush ribbon from his eyelids, carefully folded it and put it aside.
“Playing chess?”
The chessboard was placed between the two of them, and the animal head chess was on the game. There was no hidden murderous intention, and the rhythm was leisurely.
The chess pieces don't seem to be fighting, but a group of small animals visiting each other and playing with each other, casting a relaxed fairy tale atmosphere on the chessboard.
"Luodus, in a few days it will be Creation Day."
"Hmm."
"The people say that the creation day is the birth day of the Lord God, that is to say, is it your birthday?"
Luo Das's chess hand paused in mid-air.
Creation Day is the first day of every year. It is also called God's Christmas among folks. It is said that the eight main gods and the world were conceived on this day from the original water.
"It shouldn't be counted." Luo Das replied.
"Then do you have a birthday? When is it—the day of the festival in early spring?"
The animal head chess landed on the grid, making a crisp click.
Of course, Luo Das has a birthday, but it is not the birthday of a god, it is a memory of human life.
Year after year, the same banquet, dressed up like a perfect sign, nothing said, nothing done.
Although she recognizes the meaning of birthdays to others, and is willing to send blessings at such a time, for Luodus herself, she does not like it.
The silence was only for a moment, Luo Das lightly wrote: "No."
"Well, I wanted to give you something special on your birthday..."
Luo Das was slightly curious: "What is it?"
The princess immediately pointed to herself.
"No, you should stay in the world."
Luodus smiled, his expression a little narrow.
This is not the first time the princess has had a whim to send herself out.
The last time was a few days ago, before going to bed on DiSimon's Judgment Day, Eleuil began to plan the future again, saying that although such corrupt officials cannot be completely eliminated, they must be severely cracked down. Less is better.
Luodus listened quietly, and thoughtfully asked: "Does this count as a vow to the gods?"
The princess said: "Not only this time, but every word I said to you."
As described in many other mythological systems, in the Solan mythology, there is a price to pay if one vows to the gods and fails to achieve it.
Luodus didn't say anything, Eleuil said solemnly: "If any of the items are not achieved in the future, I will consecrate myself to you."
At that time, Luo Das shook his head, just as childish words.
And now, the same thing is said again.
Hearing the answer of "no accept", Eleuil raised her eyes, staring at the gods with clear, upturned eyes, as if a little aggrieved: "You have no choice but to accept it."
"Why?"
"I'm your...believer, you can't make me change my faith."
"Oh - send me my followers, Her Royal Highness is really cunning."
Luodasi's expression was calm, if it weren't for the smile that flashed in his eyes, few people would have seen that this was a joke.
Eleuil raised the corners of her mouth and smiled innocently.
Then move.
A wolf head chess mercilessly ate the bird head chess, the style suddenly changed, and the relaxed atmosphere of small animals visiting each other was broken.
Luodus' attention immediately shifted to the chessboard, and the two of them came and went, and began to stage an animal world battle royale.
Until the end, Eleuil used the open-mouthed lion head chess to break into Luodusfang's lair, and at the same time, Lena's whispered reminder came from outside the car window:
"Your Highness, Miss Lorca, Acht is coming soon."
Eleuil raised her voice slightly: "Got it."
Then began to organize the chessboard, and said, "On the surface, you lost, but in fact it was me."
Luodus laughed: "Well, let me hear your new solution to Seshat."
The Queen's daughter plausibly said: "Look, my Beastmaster has fallen into your lair, and there is no leader here. If it was in the real beast jungle, it would have been defeated, and it could only be Enter your herd and let it be driven."
Lotus: "…"
Fortunately, the chess players in the kingdom couldn't hear Eliu's high opinion, otherwise even if Eli was the princess, those chess players would definitely have a good argument with her.
This interpretation is outrageous!
Luodus turned his face away, looking through the car window to see the tall city wall in front of him.
The city wall is made of light-colored boulders, extremely tall, and seems to be plated with a layer of golden light under the sun.
Inside the city walls, is the royal city of Solancia, known as the heart of the kingdom and the radiance of the gods.
Lotus was here, but only after thousands of years.
The modern city has almost wiped out the traces of the ancient Solan period, and is no longer even called Acht. There are only two or three dilapidated ruins and the museum in the city that preserves a little bit of the afterglow of the old civilization.
Lotus looked sideways at Eleuil.
The corner of the queen's mouth was still holding the relaxed and pleasant smile from a moment ago, her eyes staring at the city wall, the light and shadow at the bottom of her eyes were intertwined, and her emotions were difficult to understand.
Compared with Luodus, the princess has deeper and more complex feelings for this city.
Her childhood was spent here. As the little princess who was truly loved and admired by the stars, Acht carried the most carefree period.
But from the kingdom of God to the underworld, from the clouds to the valley, it is also in the king city.
The carriage slowly stopped, then started again, and passed through the city gate unimpeded, all the way to the city.
The interior of the royal city is very prosperous, even in the middle of winter, there are many pedestrians. Since a few days will be the beginning of the year, the branches of the trees along the street are hung with objects of different shapes, corresponding to various The amulet of the gods, adding many different colors to the city scenery.
"This is going to...the palace?"
Lotus looked away from the window.
Eleuil rested his chin with one hand, and the buildings on both sides of the main road were reflected in his eyes, which corresponded one by one in his memory: "Well, it is the way to the palace."
Luodus frowned slightly.
The princess said softly: "Horst won't do it so quickly, after all, at his father's funeral before, he was crying on the empty coffin in grief."
If the princess had an "accident" as soon as she entered the city, his performance would always be a little subtle. Horst cherished his reputation, and at least he would not do anything dangerous in a short period of time.
But not necessarily for other operations.
Eleuil: "In a while, Horst will definitely summon me. Do you want to find a place to rest with the caravan first, or come with me?"
Luodus did not hesitate: "With you."
The princess moved her eyelashes: "Okay."
There is a dome that is much higher than other buildings in front, and the columns are also exceptionally high, and you can see all kinds of **** symbols carved on the top of the columns from a distance, including snow Tea leaves in the shape of flowers.
Gradually, the palace revealed its grand and magnificent appearance. The outer wall is so high that it can almost be compared with the city wall, and its history is indeed as long as the city wall.
The carriage slowed down, and the sound of horses’ hooves sounded in front of them. It was Romul who returned to the royal city one step earlier than the caravan.
"Father invites you to meet in the palace, he wants to see you."
The author has something to say:
The college entrance examination tomorrow, I don't know if there is a little cutie who wants to take the college entrance examination, I wish all the best, the title of the gold list!
However, I still hope that the little cutie who takes the test will see this blessing in two days, rest well, prepare for the test, and get good results www
