Princess' personal painter

After all, in order to defeat a powerful enemy, the fire of life in the blood has almost been burned, and there are only seven or eight years of life left to use, right?After this unfulfilled wedding, I ended up living a vain and worthless life just like my father... Could this be the fate of people in the family?

"Sorry, I'm late."

While thinking this way, auditory hallucinations seemed to appear in the ears.Mevia smiled self-deprecatingly, but when she opened her eyes, she showed a surprised expression——Lorence, who has firmly occupied her mind since the first meeting a few months ago, Standing in front of you with an apology.At this moment, all those regrets and doubts just now were left behind.

Seeing Meivia standing there in a daze, Lawrence asked in a low voice, "Mevia, are you okay?"

"Don't ask." Then, Mevia stepped forward and hugged Wenjiesi's body. She was a little greedy for this warm embrace for a while, and said softly in a human language that she was not proficient in, "Honey, we Let's go ahead with the wedding, okay?"

Chapter 83 Martyrdom

"Just use red silk instead... I'll wrap it up for you."

"OK, all right."

"It's a little dirty, I hope you don't mind..."

"It's okay, I don't care."

"Okay, let's start."

"Hmm... how do I do it?"

"Please look into my eyes and answer... Dear, are you willing to make an oath to cherish this marriage, love me for the rest of your life, and always be by my side to protect me?"

"I do." He replied firmly.

"It's your turn to ask me. You say this, 'Are you willing to make an oath, cherish this marriage, become my most loyal backer, and support my career at all times'."

"Mevia, are you willing to make an oath, cherish this marriage, become my most loyal backing, and support my career at all times?"

"I am willing!"

Looking at each other affectionately for a while, Meivia's eyes were filled with mist, and she said shyly: "Although it seems to be the other way around, it should be me who protects you, but it doesn't matter." "My dear, please kiss me..."

Not far from the two, standing in the area where an unknown number of people died, watching the interaction between Lawrence and Mevia over there, Jacquiline and the Unica brothers and sisters were a little stunned for a moment.The three of them knew very well that at the moment when Lawrence and Mevia exchanged vows, he had nothing to do with the Ruolin royal family—he chose a more difficult path with almost no future in sight.

I saw the destruction of Alice City with my own eyes, I saw my father and king go downhill, I saw my former subjects become dehumanized undead, I saw my fellow human beings die by my side, and even my beloved lover was gone... Nothing. People know how many cruel tests this once high-spirited prince has experienced in the short period of half a year.If this is his destination, I hope he can get happiness because of it.

Looking at Lawrence and Mevia who finally embraced each other from a distance, Eunika felt sympathy for a moment.However, at this moment, a slight cold light flashed in the corner of her vision, and it was a man in a red robe who landed silently on the roof near the square, raised his longbow ...

"Your Highness, be careful!"

Eunika yelled, drew out her dagger with a "swish", and rushed towards Lawrence.However, at this distance, no matter how fast she was, it would be too late.She watched helplessly as a cold arrow galloped towards the two people embracing in the square, and it seemed that it was about to pierce through the newly married couple.

When the arrow shot out, Meivia was lowering her eyes shyly, waiting for the kiss from her lover.She was still a little puzzled when she heard Eunika's voice, and then she felt her body was pushed away suddenly, and she fell straight to the ground unprepared.Having never been treated like this before, she looked at Lawrence a little annoyed, and then, when she saw the scene in front of her, her heart fell into a chill.

Lawrence's chest was pierced by a pitch-black arrow, and he was nailed to the ground. Dazzling blood was continuously gushing from the wound, instantly staining his skirt red.

"His Royal Highness..."

Until this time, Eunika, who had just rushed to Lawrence's side, knelt down to inspect his injuries, and her face was extremely pale for a moment.She stood up again, her eyes fixed on the red-robed man on the roof not far away, and an extremely cold sword intent erupted all over her body, and she galloped towards the murderer.

Mevia crawled to Laurence's side in embarrassment, trying to help him up, but found that his body was firmly nailed to the ground by arrows, and instead coughed violently because of the wound being affected by this movement.Mevia's eyes were filled with tears, and she opened her mouth to say something, but her grief made her unable to make a sound. Instead, Lawrence held her hand with difficulty, and said intermittently:

"Mevia... guarding... the promise... I did it... this is the only thing I can... do for you..."

Every time Lawrence uttered a word with difficulty, a stream of blood gushed out of the wound.Faced with this situation, Meivia could only hold the wound with her hands in vain, and said in a crying voice: "Stop it, please stop it... I will find someone to heal you right away, you won't Something's up..."

Lawrence forced a smile, looked at Mevia tenderly, and said, "Thank you... for your... care during this time... it's you... that gave me hope..."

Tears fell sadly like broken pearls, merging with the dazzling blood.Ever since her father was killed, Meivia experienced the feeling of losing a loved one for a long time. At this time, she couldn't bear to be the one who died: "Why, why do people around me always have to be taken away one by one... We clearly agreed to stay together for the rest of our lives..."

Lawrence's eyes gradually dimmed: "I'm sorry... I can't be with you anymore... Please take care of me..." He stretched out his hand as if wanting to wipe away Meivia's tears.However, only halfway through his movements, he fell powerlessly.

That extremely slight "snap" hit Mevia's chest like a rock - time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

In this way, she did not know how long she was immersed in grief.

The almost inaudible sound of teardrops falling to the ground made Mevia look up in a daze.She saw the girl in the black magic robe, standing on the side looking at the dead Laurence in disbelief, her eyes were red, and she didn't even realize that tears were pouring out.

When meeting Meivia's eyes, Jacqueline asked blankly, "Is he dead?"

Mevia's heart ached for a moment, and she responded in a low voice: "Yes."

Jacqueline murmured: "...he was talking to us just now...begging me to bring him back here...why all of a sudden...it's all my fault, I shouldn't be soft-hearted and agree His..." After a pause, Jacqueline showed a look of hatred: "It's all your fault...why do you have to force him to marry or something? It took a lot of effort to find him, but he died to protect others..."

Staring blankly at the girl in front of her who was as sad as herself, Mevia smiled sadly. She lowered her head, kissed Lawrence's face tenderly, and closed his eyes for him.Then Mevia stood up and stared at the man in the red robe who was fighting with Eunika from a distance, as well as the third chief priest of the Demon God Hall who appeared in the square and was confronting Wenjies at some time. .There was a hint of determination in her eyes, and she whispered to herself: "Yes, it's all my fault... Now, it's time for me to atone for all the mistakes I've made."

The soft lips parted slightly, and the long and sad singing voice wandered between the heaven and the earth again——

"Tell me, what is sorrow?

If you close your eyes, you can't see the sad things.

never enjoyed the warmth,

will not understand the pain.

In my heart, I can't remember whose gentle voice..."

Suddenly, she seemed to have returned to the time when her father was assassinated and died. His father told her on his deathbed: "After I leave, I must find someone who is willing to protect you in times of crisis... as long as Such a person is qualified to be your husband..."

And earlier, her elder brother said to her in a similar tone: "Dear sister, I can't protect you anymore... Don't be so capricious in the future, find someone to take care of you..."

Brother, father... yes, I have found someone who is willing to protect me.However, is this kind of thing really correct?When he was in danger, he blocked a fatal arrow for me, but he fell into a pool of blood, leaving me alone.When I felt that I was close to happiness, he was just like you back then...suddenly left me and went to another world...

"... there was a boat,

With a roaring sigh,

Disappeared among the waves in my heart.

Why are you looking for warmth for no reason?

full of confusion..."

Do you like my singing voice?

Actually, I still have a big secret that I haven't told anyone.

My soul comes from another world.I was born with a complete memory of my previous life. When I knew that I was born in the royal family, I thought I became the destined protagonist. The so-called family members and subordinates are just NPCs. , They serve me like stars and moons... I was naive at the time, but I didn't know that the world was so cruel—this is a world ruled by the Demon God Hall, where power is respected and success is determined.

It wasn't until the time of losing a loved one that I realized how heavy this feeling was.

It wasn't until one after another that I was betrayed that I realized that trust needs painstaking efforts.

It wasn't until the end that I became a loner and I couldn't even find someone to rely on, then I began to reminisce about the warm and ordinary time in the past, and to crave the insignificant warmth that I never cherished before.Like a fish stranded on the shore, desperately asking for oxygen, he did not hesitate to gamble everything for it.

"...the boat of life,

Set sail among the rippling microwaves.

Ride the waves on a starless night.

on the other side of the darkness,

I can only see your figure.

To the sealess waters of memory,

until I find it myself,

The sadness of knowing for sure that we will love each other in the future..."

However, I couldn't wait to spend all my wealth, but in the end I lost the bet.I am incompetent, after all, I will not be able to become the protagonist in the story who defeats all treacherous people... Now that I have nothing, I have nothing to be afraid of.I'm so tired... If God can give me an afterlife, please give me an ordinary life, please!

Thinking this way, with a relieved expression, Mevia burned her vitality unscrupulously, and walked towards the chief priest of the Demon God Hall who was showing a look of surprise in front of her.

The mournful and shocking sound fluttered between the heaven and the earth, and the vast vitality released from Meivia's body was causing violent shocks in this gloomy world. , dyed everything in sight red.

The melody from another world became her last swan song.

When she was dying, Mevia's mind flashed the image of him fighting desperately to protect those human beings when she first met Lawrence, the warm scene of dining with her parents and elder brother when she was a child, flashed She recalled the details of her life with her family before she traveled...Suddenly, she heard someone softly say to herself: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

She saw someone standing in front of her, opening her arms to her.She didn't know who this person was, and she couldn't see that person's face clearly.However, it doesn't matter anymore.Like a child, she stumbled and ran over, throwing herself into that warm embrace...

Chapter 84 Private Conversations

The turmoil that occurred in the Land of Confused finally ended with Mevia Sekalixi burning her own life and dying together with the two priests of the Demon God Hall.

After this battle, not only is the most romantic kingdom of Confusion among the nations on the brink of extinction, but the Demon God's Hall is also severely damaged due to the loss of three priests... Plus the incident that happened in the Kingdom of Sin some time ago The shocking battle, as well as the fall of the white city earlier, all these seem to indicate that the demons are standing at the crossroads that determine their future destiny, and any choices they make next will be related to the survival of the race.

As for Eunika and his party, they found a relatively secluded hillside outside the royal city, and Eunika carefully arranged Lawrence and Mevia's attire before burying them here.

With a solemn expression, Eunika patiently engraved the names of the two on the stone tablet.During this period, Jacqueline sat on a dirt slope a little further away, staring at Unika's movements in a daze.Apparently, she hasn't recovered from the blow until now.

Noticing Jacqueline's expression, Eunika asked softly, "Miss Jacqueline, have you ever felt death so close before?"

"Death, I..."

Just as Jacqueline was about to speak out, she fell into a speech block again.

This is the most ridiculous point, the witch who was hated by the world and became synonymous with evil has never been close to death.Even if the life was deprived by her own hands, it was only the officer who killed to protect Irene... Besides, she had no concept of death at all.

As Eunika said, it was the first time for her to see the death of a friend at such a close distance.

Eunika said faintly, "Do you know how I feel right now?"

Jacqueline stared blankly at the silver-haired girl with a sad expression, and saw that the other party didn't wait for her to answer and said to herself: "His Royal Highness is dying in front of his eyes, I don't know how to explain to Xi Ya ...But if I ask myself, I think I have worked very hard, and I have done almost everything I can, but even so, I have not been able to prevent the tragedy from happening, whether it is His Highness Lawrence, or Even Miss Meivia, who died in love with him, I can't save anyone... That's why, now I finally understand one thing..."

"Huh?" Jacqueline was still in a daze.

"That is, I am only myself after all, and I cannot become a hero like Xi Ya or Erin. After staying with them for a long time, I seem to have an illusion that no matter how I fall into In such a desperate situation, things will turn around... Someone will definitely stand up to reverse the situation and let everyone have a happy ending... But, I am not them. Thinking about it carefully, I clearly have such a chance to prevent the tragedy from happening. It's a pity that I'm still a selfish person after all. You know, as long as you have a little bit of selfishness or hesitation, you will miss the opportunity to save others. Like Xi Ya and Erin, they can always save others at critical moments. To save others, what is needed is a firm will, courage not to be afraid of powerful enemies, and a pure heart that always thinks of others... I can't do this, so I can only watch the tragedy It happened right in front of my eyes... If it was them, if it was Irene or Siya, they would definitely be able to find a way to save everyone. It would be great if any of them were here..."

While speaking, the hand holding the dagger trembled slightly, and Unica closed her mouth unwillingly, and said in a low voice: "If it was them, they would definitely understand the meaning of Miss Meivia's singing. Emotional, I will never sit back and watch the massacre happen right in front of my eyes... That sad melody is really something I will never forget in my life. It would be great if we stayed and fought side by side with her from the beginning..."

"That's not your fault." Wenjiesi's voice came from the side, "Those are all decisions I made, and the death of His Highness Lawrence is also my responsibility, so you don't have to blame yourself too much..."

"It's my fault." Eunika shook her head and said, "I'm too used to relying on others, and I lack my own opinions in my actions... Even if I have obtained the strength of the holy rank, I can't be called a strong person. ... If I dare not even take on this responsibility, there will never be a possibility to go further. Even for my own future growth, I have to keep in mind this inescapable 'sin' to move forward."

As she said that, the girl's eyes showed a firm look, and the words "Spring, [-] years in the Qingyue calendar" on the tombstone also finished the last stroke.Afterwards, she stood up again, turned her head and said to Jacqueline: "Next, for those surviving people that His Highness Lawrence explained, I still have to trouble Miss Jacqueline to cover them and send them back to Ruolin... I decided to stay in this world for a while to see if I can rescue more survivors..."

Why do I have to do this troublesome thing for you...

Jacqueline stared at Eunika, but she didn't express her awkward thoughts after all, which meant that after she agreed to this matter, she had to meet the annoying Sisyana.Glancing at Unica with some resentment, Jacqueline suddenly asked: "You said just now that if it was Irene, everyone would definitely be saved... You obviously hate her, don't you? Why do you believe it so much?" she"

"I hate it... I hated it for a while." Eunika said in a low voice with a dazed expression for a while, "But, I always remember that when I was poisoned and couldn't move and was surrounded by orcs, she was the only one who didn't care about herself. I will never forget the scene of her climbing up the cliff with her bare hands behind my back. I have no right to hate her, I just hate myself... I just saw her Being so close to Xi Ya, I feel a little reconciled..."

Realizing that she had said unnecessary words, Unika bit her lip involuntarily.But I heard Jacqueline talking to herself: "So, am I saved by her? If it wasn't for her, I might have died at the hands of Rudolph. He hated my mother out of love, Did she try to kill me? But, even though she was saved by Irene at that time, she still rejected my request... She would rather stay with the annoying princess than take me with her. Escaping from that nasty environment..."

It was the first time to recall what happened with Irene from a different angle. Jacqueline couldn't help showing a confused look, and said to herself: "When I was most desperate, she didn't even lend a helping hand to me... ...I have clearly made up my mind that I will not forgive her, and I have already..."
