My queen always makes my survival more difficult

"Just follow her orders."

General Paticia

"Do it!"

"...yes..."

Seeing Patricia's expression, Joe knew that he couldn't ask any more questions. Patricia's expression was so calm and serious, as if she had known it would be like this.

Joe said nothing more, but turned and left to organize the army.

Edith took off her helmet.

"Honestly, I don't like wearing helmets at all. They're not suitable for me."

After saying this, Edith threw her helmet to the ground.

"Even this armor is just for show. On me, it's useless. If someone really wants to kill me, it's easy."

"How are you going to leave if you stay?"

"It doesn't matter. I have my own way. You don't need to worry about me. If you want to worry about me, you can just defeat the Zebikra army later."

When Patricia found out, she understood Edith's idea. Edith was a woman who tried her best to be foolproof. Her plan would not have too many loopholes, so she wanted to stay because she had to stay. If she let herself go, it meant that she had to stay.

When Paticia heard the conversation between her and Joe, she understood this. In order to destroy the fortress, one person must be left behind, and that person must be the one who can allow Ulki to launch the siege artillery.

Apart from himself, the only one who was worried was Edith. Edith had been targeting Urouge all night. Even if she failed to kill him, this was enough reason for Urouge to kill Edith. Urouge was narrow-minded and would never let Edith go.

"What are your plans for the future?"

"Oh, are you going to ask me? You are the general of the fortress army, you are the real battle-hardened man, I am just here to help out in the fortress. You are better than me in fighting, and I am better than you in plotting. So, even if I am not by your side, you know what to do. There is no need for me to say so much. Retreat with your soldiers, the fortress will be mine from now on."

"Edith..."

"Hmph, just do what I say. I won't kill you. Just trust me, you're a member of the Rom family! Join me in defending the fortress! Reopen the great barrier!"

"Yes!"

Chapter 393

Walking up the city wall, Edith looked into the distance. Now she had to stay and defend the fortress for a while. Although she didn't know whether she would die, if she didn't stay, no matter how perfect her plan was, it would only fail!

Paticia has begun to lead the remaining people to retreat, and now she is the only one left here.

Edith didn't feel uncomfortable about this. Rather, she felt that this was the only way for her to fully unleash the power she should possess.

The great barrier has been reopened, and the city walls will not be repaired anymore. Just leave it as it is. In the end, they will all collapse. Repairing them by yourself is just a waste of time. However, even so, Edith still arranged for a few people to pretend to do some work. After all, if you want to confuse the enemy, you still have to do this as much as possible.

It is very quiet on Urki's side now, but it can be seen that they will start attacking again soon. Now I have no time to rest and I have to prepare for the next thing as soon as possible.

“Let’s start executing the plan.”

"Yes!"

The soldiers of the Rom family who carry out the plan are almost all brainwashed, so they will never betray themselves. These are things they must do. Edith is like this. She will do anything for her plan. As long as the plan can be successfully carried out and their lives are sacrificed, Edith may feel guilty, but she will still do it.

These thousands of men were Edith's subordinates. The rest had already left with Padizia. Leaving only these few thousand men behind was enough. It was just for show. As long as they could force Ulki to destroy the fortress and prevent him from taking it, it would be enough! The army of two people was completely enough!

"Edith"

"Huh? Why haven't you left yet?"

'I want to stay'

Lenora removed the bandages on her body. Even though she was still injured, it didn't mean that she had no possibility of fighting. She could still fight, so she planned to stay.

"What are you staying for? Paticia still needs manpower."

"It's the same here. You plan to stay here just to replace General Patricia. I also know what you plan to do. So, the more people stay here, the better. If Ulki sees me here, he won't be too suspicious."

At that time, she had also rushed into the enemy army, but Lenora finally understood how big the gap was between herself and Patricia. No matter how many times she fought, even if she didn't bring back victory, she would still be a Valkyrie dancing on the battlefield, and she was not, so she had to at least play the biggest role.

"I advise you to leave here. I might abandon you again. Are you sure you want to stay?"

"Well, I'm sure it doesn't matter even if you abandon me. This time it's my own choice and it has nothing to do with you. I'm fighting for Edvira, not for you. Our goals are different. Even if you abandon me, it doesn't matter! This time, it's my own choice! Even if it means sacrificing my life, I will protect the Kingdom of Edvira! Protect Her Majesty the Queen!"

Lenora was firm in her decision and it had nothing to do with Edith!

Chapter 394

"What a fool"

Edith sneered, but Lenora didn't care at all. Lenora knew that Edith would deliberately anger someone.

"There's not much time left until the enemy attacks. I advise you to leave when it's time to do so. Staying will only lead to a dead end... It's meaningless."

Lenora held her sword. The wounds on her body were no longer that painful. Even if it hurt, she was a knight after all and could endure the pain. Since she had the courage to rush into the enemy and die, why couldn't she muster the courage to fight at this time?

Looking at Lenora, Edith sighed. "Why would you stay if I abandoned you? You should know that I plan above all else. I will abandon even my family. If you stay here, you will die. If you leave, you can survive and maybe even witness the rise of Edvira. Although that Noxu is a fool, he understands how I should go... No matter what happens to me, he will do those things for me."

"You plan"

"Don't get me wrong, I have no intention of sacrificing myself for this country. I want to survive, so be ready to run for your life at any time. I will definitely abandon you, you should understand."

Edith left after saying this, and went to deploy other places.

Lenora didn't chase after him, but stayed where she was...

It was probably five years ago. At that time, she was still a member of the Rom family. Lenora had always followed Edith. But in a battle, when the enemy surrounded Edvira, the Zebikla Kingdom and the Sindias Kingdom, together with several small countries, sent troops to attack the Edvira Kingdom. After all, the Edvira Kingdom owned a mine. No matter which country it was, they all wanted to get that mine. For this world, it was a huge treasure.

I followed Edith to fight. It was my first time on the battlefield and the first time I understood the cruelty of the battlefield. I followed Edith's back and fought. In the end, at the critical moment, Edith abandoned me, leaving me and a small part of the army in the enemy's encirclement.

This was betrayal! No matter what! This was betrayal! Edith didn't say a word! She threw herself into the enemy's encirclement. She and the few remaining people fought desperately with all her might. In the end, it was Patricia and Queen Noelle who led the army to reinforce her, and she was saved. It was also at that time that Queen Noelle reached out to her, regardless of the past.

Lenora kept thinking about how she was betrayed by Edith but saved by Queen Norel and Patricia.

At that time, Lenora was not planning to follow the queen, but wanted to know why Edith abandoned her. However, Edith never explained, and when she went to find her, she was surprised that she was still alive...

Perhaps it was her hatred for Edith, or perhaps it was her dissatisfaction with everything that had happened, coupled with the help of Queen Noelle and Patricia at the time, that made Lenora come to Noelle's side and swear allegiance to her. Noelle, regardless of past grudges, gave her a higher status and honor...

Chapter 395

Recalling these things, Lenora didn't know what was going on in her heart. She just wanted to know why Edith abandoned her at that time.

But Edith never talked about this matter since then. Even if I wanted to ask her, she would just tease me and never explain!

I had doubts about this, but at that time, I had already chosen to give up. No matter what, Lenora had already sworn allegiance to Queen Noelle...

"Edith, why..."

The answer is, I'll never get it. I might even die here, but I have no regrets. Even if it's just to repay Queen Noelle for saving my life and her kindness, I will fight for the Kingdom of Edvira with all my might! Protect this fortress! Until the moment of my death!

Edith looked at the back and didn't intend to say anything.

She will not regret her actions. Moreover, even if she regrets it, what has been done has been done, and there is no need to be confused about it.

"Ms. Edith, it may not have been all laid out yet."

"Very good, let's get started."

"Yes!"

The plan still has to be carried out. No matter what they plan to do or what they think, she does not intend to change her plan and will do what she thinks is right. Edith is such a person. Even if the other party is an old friend, she will definitely give up when it is time to give up.

Being soft-hearted will only end up killing yourself. Killing yourself is not enough, it will also kill the Kingdom of Edvira, kill your family! Kill others! Edith will never show the slightest bit of soft-heartedness!

Even if you are a good friend!

"Tsk!"

Holding the longbow, Edith walked to the commanding heights of the city wall, pulled the bowstring, and locked onto the target!

"If you don't come! I'll be rude! Urouge!"

call out!

A white meteor streaked across the dark night sky, leaving a beautiful line of falling stars perfectly! Accompanied by a small explosion.

"What's going on! Is it that woman again?!"

Urki, who had been trying to rest for a moment, was suddenly startled and stood up. The fire was coming from the siege cannon! It must be that woman again! Only that woman could do such a thing now!

Looking towards the city wall of Edvira, I couldn't see anything because it was pitch black, but at the commanding heights, there was a very obvious light spot that was constantly shaking!

Then a meteor shot towards him! The speed was terrifying!

call out!

It happened almost instantly! The feather arrow had already shot into the shield in front of him, and white flames burned fiercely. The terrifying white flames seemed to illuminate his terrified face! Ulki grasped the sword: "Attack... Attack! Attack! Attack the fortress! Kill her!"

That woman! That woman has challenged me again and again! If I don't kill her! I will never give up!

"Kill her! Kill her for sure! Attack!"

The flames lit up one after another. At this time, it was not far from dawn, and Paticia's army had already left. It was time to start!

Luger looked at the fortress in the distance and had an ominous premonition in his heart. What exactly was that devil woman planning to do?

Can we really win this time? Or will we end up in even greater failure...

Chapter 396

call out!

This sound seemed to have become the voice of a demon! It kept ringing in Ulki's ears!

It was like a demon bringing a death signal! It made him tremble constantly! The siege cannon still needed a few minutes to be repaired! But Ulki was completely mad! His life was threatened again and again! No matter what, he couldn't bear it!

call out!

boom! ! !

“Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah…Ah!!! That crazy woman! I’m definitely going to kill her! I’m definitely going to kill her!”

Edith had really pushed his mental endurance to its limit! Ulki had already desperately led his army forward, trying to open the barrier and enter the fortress! Anyway, at this time, a hole had been blown in the fortress wall! As long as the barrier was opened, they could rush directly into the fortress!

By then, it won't just be Patricia! We'll have to kill this crazy woman too!

However, the barrier was more solid than they had imagined, and the soldiers of the Rom family on the city wall continued to use feather arrows to launch round after round of attacks!

Even if the Zebikra army was blocked, they could not move forward!

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

There was something wrong with this situation. Luger always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong. Now Edvira was still spreading the big barrier and constantly launching attacks. And not only Edith was here, but there was also another commander here. What was going on?

But since the beginning, Luger hasn't seen Paticia and the others. Everyone else seems to have disappeared. Although he keeps seeing people appear and disappear, what is going on?

If we don’t capture this fortress, we won’t be able to get through. This place is completely blocked!

Edvira's fortress was practically the best in the world, impregnable as a fortress. However, even so, it couldn't hold out for long against the might of the siege cannons. But why? Even at this point, Luger didn't feel that the Kingdom of Zebikra had achieved victory. That terrifying demonic woman was still standing there commanding the army. Why was that?

Luger really didn't understand what Edith was planning to do. He had never been able to understand Edith's behavior before, and he still couldn't understand what she was planning to do now.

If this continues, she will definitely die. According to her personality, she shouldn't do this.

"What are you still doing! The siege cannon may have been repaired! Has it been repaired yet? Bastard! What are you still doing here?"

Ulki roared hysterically! Anger had made him lose his temper, but more of it was fear. From Ulki's eyes, Luger saw his fear for Edith. He fell into panic because of Edith's situation!

"Calm down, something's not right right now."

"Calm down! You want me to calm down! Tell me how to calm down! If it were you! How would you calm down! Tell me! Tell me! How to calm down! Tell me!"

Urki grabbed Luger's clothes hysterically! How could he stay calm? How could he stay calm now? That woman was constantly attacking him! She was threatening his life again and again!

call out!

As if in a mockery, the feather arrow fell at Ulki's feet.

“Ah…Ah…Ahhhhhhh!!! Aaaaaahhhh!!!”

Chapter 397

"Humph"

Edith also wanted to end Ulki's life in an instant, so there was no need for her to waste time here. However, she couldn't do that yet. If it weren't for the plan, Edith would definitely try her best to kill Ulki instead of wasting time here.

No matter what, we have to hold on until tomorrow.

It is already dawn, and the sky is gradually getting brighter. There is no time left. At least I have to finish what I should do before the day breaks completely!

"Hey! Urouge! Is this all you mean when you say you're going to destroy the Kingdom of Edvira?"

"Shut up! Crazy woman! I will definitely kill you! I will definitely kill you!"

"kill me?"
