The strongest prince in the fairy tale world

Chapter 154 Awakening
After a while, Merlin came downstairs with a can of coffee from the Mesore Empire.

When preparing to brew with boiling water, he said coldly:

"Jasmine, ask your mother if you want it."

Catherine sat on a chair and looked around the environment of the wooden house, and replied:
"Molly, tell your aunt that I don't want to drink."

Jasmine has a black hair, you are all in the same room, why do you want me to be the microphone.

"Auntie, my mother said no." But she still passed on the message obediently.

"It's better not to drink, I still think I don't drink enough." Merlin didn't look at Catherine.

Catherine looked around, with an expression of disbelief, and said to Udyr:
"Udyr, you have lived in this house for more than 60 years?"

It is true that this wooden house is a bit shabby and dilapidated, especially for Catherine, who has lived in the palace for a long time, it is simply a house for primitive people.

"It's very good here, the air is good, and you can hear the birdsong every morning." Udyr said.

"If you want to listen to birds chirping, just buy a few birdcages and hang them in the room. Why live in this deep mountain and old forest, you are not short of money." Catherine is extremely picky about material life. If she is allowed to live in this environment, she will I will be upset all over.

Feeling the chill emanating from Merlin's body, fearing that the two would quarrel again, Udyr said quickly:
"A bird locked in a cage sounds different from a free bird in the wild. Merlin and I are very happy living here. Apart from the good air and abundant natural elements, we mainly don't want people to disturb us."

"If that's the case, I can ask someone to build a castle for you here." Catherine said, subconsciously wanting her sister to live better.

However, things backfired, and this incident made Merlin angry again, and she turned to look at Catherine:
"Can you stop being so self-righteous? Why do you always think you are right? Am I happy living in such a crappy house?"

Catherine was taken aback by her sister's sudden reprimand, "I didn't mean that..."

Maybe it was because the two hadn't communicated for too long, which caused Catherine to offend Merlin by saying something casually.

Seeing this, Jasmine quickly said: "Auntie, my mother didn't mean that. She just cares about you and thinks that you can live in a better environment."

"Yeah, you are a nine-star magician, and Udyr is a nine-star ranger. The money you earn can definitely live better." Catherine quickly explained.

"That's why my mother said that you and I are born different. You have the kind of temperament that wants to be competitive in everything. Even the clothes you wear, the snacks you eat, and the speed of reciting texts, you have to compare everything with others. Don't compete. It's hard to be the first one." It was rare for Merlin to say such a long sentence to Catherine.

Catherine froze for a moment, "Did Mom really say that?"

Merlin didn't answer directly: "Now that you have become the empress of an empire, and your status is already number one, why do you keep thinking about expanding your territory and increasing your power? Don't you really feel tired like this?"

"You say I'm so strong, aren't you yourself? You have been better than me in everything since you were a child. If I don't fight hard, will my parents still see me? Even now, don't you live in seclusion in the mountains and devote yourself to cultivation? Do you want to become stronger? How can you be more noble than me?" Catherine was also a little angry.

"Catherine, do you know the biggest difference between me and you?" Merlin put away his emotions and said lightly.

"The biggest difference between us is that I was born a few minutes later than you, but both parents prefer you!" Catherine said coldly.

"You're wrong, Mom and Dad have never preferred anyone, do you know what Mom said to me back then?" Merlin said.

Catherine looked at Merlin curiously, and Merlin said slowly:
"My mother said, [I know that you and your sister are very strong people, but mother is worried about you but not about your sister, because you are hard-spoken and kind-hearted, and you will consider the consequences. Your sister's character is more selfish and self-interested. It may be prone to accidents.]”

Catherine was stunned, and Merlin continued: "That's why Mom and Dad are strict with you and more lenient with me. Maybe it seems to you that they prefer me, but they are actually afraid that you will go the wrong way."

Catherine lowered her head and did not speak. Merlin had never said these words to her before. Looking back now, it seemed that all the behaviors and teachings of her parents could be justified.

Merlin didn't stop, since her parents passed away one after another, she has never had a heart-to-heart relationship with Catherine, maybe today is an opportunity to tell the truth.

"You said that I lived in seclusion in the mountains and devoted myself to cultivation, didn't I just want to become stronger? Yes, I want to become stronger, but my motivation for becoming stronger is not to build a giant country, to invade, to go I have no interest in waging war, gaining supremacy, and enjoying the pleasure of manipulating others.

I become stronger only because if I can break through by luck and become an extraordinary being, then I will have the ability to control life and soul. At that time, I will be able to find the souls of my parents and find a way to revive them. Then I will be able to But regret in my heart. "

Hearing Merlin's words, Catherine's throat tightened and her eyes became sore.

It turned out that in the end, he was the real villain.

What my sister said is right, although she has the right to control a country, she still has no sense of security and satisfaction. She has enjoyed the taste of countless male pets, but she has never had true love.

Even though the Norman Empire is already the most powerful country in Northern Europe, she is still trying to find ways to weaken the strength of the dependent countries, squeeze their economies, and think about the unification of Northern Europe one day.

Catherine thought to herself that her mother really understood them. They were also two sisters who wanted to be strong. The sister's intention was kind, while she was out of selfishness and narrow-mindedness.

Thinking of this, a tear dripped from Catherine's eye, fell on the carpet, and then 'clacked' more tears fell.

Merlin saw Catherine crying silently, and knew that her words might really hurt her sister. She was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to comfort her.

Jasmine stroked Catherine's back and whispered: "Mom, don't be sad. If you don't want to stay here, I will accompany you back."

Catherine shook her head, wiped away her tears, and looked up at Merlin:

"Sister, you are right, and my mother is also right. I was indeed wrong." Catherine said with a sob.

This is the first time she has admitted that she was wrong, and it was only after living for more than 100 years that she came to her senses.

Other people's evaluation of her is very appropriate, she is indeed selfish and cold-blooded, cruel and vicious.

Compared with her sister's goal of reuniting the family, Catherine realized that the rights and status she was chasing so hard were really meaningless.

It doesn't matter whether you control the military power or not, and it doesn't matter if you invade the Kabel country.

It doesn't even matter if she thinks she can be the queen of the Norman Empire or not.
