People are at the junction, but they become the incarnation of the sun

It was as if the shackles in my heart were completely removed.

"Yes, that's true."

Arianna is right.

Although even he himself didn't know what method he used, Ariana did 'snatch' it from the two fingers with the help of Malika.

But then, Ariana suddenly leaned forward and whispered in his ear:

"...However, Ariana has no regrets at all, and Ariana feels very happy now."

"Arianna is very satisfied to be able to serve Lord Rhine."

Before he could react, Ariana left his side as lightly as an elf, gathered all her emotions, transformed into a maid again and said to him:

"Master Rhine, we have arrived."

And, the door was opened for him.

After sending them in, Ariana left and gently closed the door for them.

The layout here is similar to that of the church below, but it is a little less solemn and more quiet and elegant, just like a lounge.

To be precise, this is the lounge, and it belongs to that person alone, the familiar figure sitting in the deepest part, Lance Sanks.

She seemed to be dressed the same as before.

The long silver hair dyed in the moonlight poured down casually, spreading on the gray-black cloth with golden embroidery on the edge like a shirt, just covering the high bulging snow peaks of the mountains.

But her figure was still as thin as she looked, with her slender arms and glowing white jade hands supporting her head. Her wild and fair face was full of calm, and her beautiful dragon eyes also followed her. It was closed tightly, as if taking a nap.

It's a little more peaceful and a little less chilly that no strangers should enter.

But those long, alluring legs moved at this moment, and they were gently brought together as if to show him off.

And there is no longer the familiar gray-white ancient dragon scales covering it, which are as smooth and delicate as her arms, and the plumpness is tightly wrapped by the black silk that spreads to the absolute realm, glowing with an alluring light.

As if to seduce him, the black slender high heels hung slightly on the toes.

The changes are really big.

In the past, even if Lance Sanks had restrained the ancient dragon symbol, there would still be a lot of marks on his body, but now except for the four rugged and spiked dragon horns on both sides of his head, his appearance is exactly the same as that of a human. .

At this moment, Lance Sanks suddenly opened his eyes, and slowly sat up from there, looking at him with eyes full of smiles and joy of reunion.

And while stretching heavily to show off her graceful figure, she slowly said:

"Mm...Long time no see, my best friend."

"Yes, I haven't seen you for 1000 years, but your appearance hasn't changed much."

What he said was not flattery, it was true.

Although there are no major changes in the others, there are still some subtle differences.

But the dragon lady in front of her really didn't change at all, not even her breath changed.

"Mhm, that's of course. A mere thousand years of time is just a big dream for us Gu Long, and it can pass in the blink of an eye."

Lance Sanks said this.

"Really? But that's not what Ariana told me, that you are here every day..."

Call my name.

He said jokingly, the last few words were lost in sound and changed to the shape of his mouth.

Lance Sanks suddenly lost his voice, and a slight blush appeared on his pretty fair face.

This was the first time he saw it.

But it is.

During these 1000 years, Lance Sanks felt extremely tormented and had been looking forward to Reinhardt's return.

This expectation gradually became mellow and thick like fine wine, and finally turned into longing.

She really missed Reinhardt.

But just as she opened her mouth to say something, she suddenly shifted her gaze to Asmi who was following Reinhard.

"Oh~ Where is the new woman, my dear friend, it seems that you will never be short of women at any time."

"But can you introduce it to me?"

A dangerous look flashed in Lance Sanks's eyes, he stood up and walked over, his slender high heels making a clicking sound on the ground.

Lance Sanks came to them and looked at Asumi carefully.

She felt an aura of disgust from Asumi's body.

Asumi was also looking at Lance Sanks without the slightest fear, and introduced herself:

"...Hello, I am Ashmi, a servant who serves my master, [Silver Chrysalis] from the eternal city of Nokron."

"Mmm, no wonder I smelled a familiar smell on your body. It turns out to be the so-called [Kingmaking Plan] of the Knox people..."

Lance Sanks said as if he had a sudden realization, but his voice was somewhat meaningful.

Then he immediately issued an eviction order to Asmi: "So, Miss Asmi, could you please go out and wait for a while?"

"I have something private that I would like to chat with my friend I haven't seen for a long time, is that okay?"

Please allow him to retract his preamble, Lance Sanks seems to have changed a lot.

From the arrogance in the past, he has become much more polite and can use the word "please". Moreover, Gu Long's arrogant character is much more humane than before.

Probably influenced by Ariana and Fia.

After all, both of them have gentle personalities, especially Ariana who never loses her etiquette.

Ashmi was a little puzzled when she heard this, but after receiving Reinhard's approval, she left the room.

The moment the door closed, they were the only ones left in the room.

"Tell me, Lance Sanks, what are you saying that you can't say in front of Asumi? Even if you want to express your longing for her, with your personality you won't judge Asumi."

"Mm, that's true."

Regarding his joking words, Lance Sanks nodded in agreement, but then changed his tone: "However, what I want to tell you is something more important."

"You, you really made a foolish decision. You actually dared to keep the artificial teardrop by your side. And according to my observation, the artificial teardrop seems to have its own independent consciousness. This is not good. Ah, Rhine.”

"How to say?"

When he was told this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Hearing this, Lance Sanks did not answer immediately, but looked at him for a few seconds, and suddenly sighed: "It seems you really don't know..."

"The Simulated Teardrop is a [King-Making Plan] created by the people of Knox in the Eternal City, and this so-called [King-Making Plan] even allows the Simulated Teardrop to stay among those who have the qualifications to become the King of Elden. Surround yourself with the faded ones, imitate them and eventually transform into a king."

"But, do you know what the price of becoming a king is?"

When asked by Long Niang, he said he had no idea, and he really didn't know.

And Lance Sanks also gave his answer: "The price is that sooner or later, that guy named Ashimi will become your enemy."

"Either you kill her, or she kills you."

"Only by killing you can she become the real king."

Lance Sanks' voice was serious and full of dignity, not like he was joking.

"But I have no intention of becoming a king."

His statement made Lance Sanks helplessly shake his head again, "Rhine, this matter has nothing to do with your will. Your fate has long been implicated in this huge whirlpool for the King of Elden."

"This is also the main reason why Feiya, I, and Ariana want to give you such a gift here."

"Even if you don't want to be a king, fate has firmly bound you."

"Furthermore, in my opinion, if there is anyone who is most qualified to be the King of Elden in this war, that person is not Vic or Bernal, but you, Reinhardt."

“The law of the sun you possess will never let your destiny fall into mediocrity.

In this chaotic borderland... fighting is the only way out. "

Lance Sanks said such a long string of words, and he finally understood.

Regardless of whether he has the will to become a king or not, the King of Elden will chase him, as if he already has two big runes in his hand.

It can be said that his performance on the current border has far exceeded that of others.

"So, Rhine, my friend... don't carry the artificial teardrop with you anymore. Sooner or later, she will become your enemy."

"..."

After hearing these words, Reinhard looked at Lance Sanks quietly. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and became unserious again:

"Lance Sanks, I originally thought that these thousand years of loneliness would make you act coquettishly towards me, but I didn't expect that you would discuss such an important matter with me as soon as we met..."

"But don't worry, I will take care of Ashmi's matter."

"Aren't you going to give up on her?" Lance Sanks asked.

"Of course, I already decided to trust her the moment I chose to let her live in my body. As for the future, let's wait until the future."

"At least I still believe her now."

Lance Sanks was slightly startled when he heard this, and then showed a soft smile, "As expected of you, Rhine.

Sure enough, this is your style. "

As long as you choose to believe, you will believe it to the end and never doubt.

While some may think this is silly, it's just his style.

However, his words were heard by not only Lance Sanks, but also Asumi who was waiting outside the door.

At this moment, she was lowering her head, her face covered by her long silver hair.

Just staring at the cracks in the floor, as if counting the gravel hidden inside.

The innocent and charming face that day had lost all expression, and was full of plainness and coldness, but the delicate brows were slightly wrinkled, as if she was thinking about something.

In her heart, the hidden Malika was saying: "You should understand this time, right?"

"He has always had absolute trust in you, and this has never changed since he chose to let you live in his body."
