Sitting in the carriage facing the two silent elf sisters who were like ice sculptures, Lucy felt terrified. She couldn't bear it anymore, so she looked at her sisters, tears welling up in her eyes, and asked with a sob:

"Sister, what's going on? I really can't stand it anymore, tell me!"

Lily closed her eyes, sighed softly, and said faintly: "Sorry, I don't know either."

This time she really didn't intend to hide it, she was really kept in the dark.

Just a few days ago, she received Roland's promise to help her with all his strength. She thought Roland was a unique person who valued friendship and loyalty. She was so moved that she could only fall asleep in the late night. Then, she was taken away by the aggressive elf knight while she was sleeping.

Although she didn't suffer any pain throughout the process, her heart was broken.

She knew much more than her sister and could easily guess what had happened.

Roland betrayed them.

The cost of helping her return to the country and regain power was too high, but not helping her would be a breach of promise, so he simply arrested her and handed her over to the Senate for disposal.

This is the most procedural approach and also the most beneficial to Roland.

If Roland wasn't a human hero and the benefactor who saved her and her sister, she wouldn't be sad at all.

Political struggles have always been so cruel that they do not allow for any emotion.

Anyone can do this, except Roland.

How can a person become so powerful?

He had vowed to help her to the end the day before, but he even kidnapped her before the sun rose the next day.

Lily's tears rolled down uncontrollably.

Seeing her sister crying, Lucy panicked and quickly hugged her sister, comforting her softly.

The two sisters hugged each other, thinking of the humiliation of being forcibly deported and their miserable future. They were overwhelmed with grief and burst into tears in an instant.

The elf knight sitting next to the two of them looked at them expressionlessly but did not stop them.

Captain Landis's task for them was to keep an eye on the two sisters and prevent them from escaping or committing suicide, and other than that, not to interfere with any of their actions.

Even as the two sisters were crying, the team's pace did not slow down, it even sped up towards the next city.

In an inconspicuous place in the queue, a gloomy magician in a black robe, his face shrouded in black mist, glanced at the carriage with emotion.

The green-robed magician next to the black-robed magician came over and asked in a low voice, "Can't bear it?"

"I have nothing to be sorry about. Their acting skills can't support the whole drama. There must be Green's spies among the Oro Kingdom guards who followed them. If they know the truth, they will be exposed."

"Aren't you afraid that the tragedy of that year will happen again?"

The green-robed elf reminded softly.

The black-robed magician seemed to have thought of something. He paused for a moment and continued on his way.

"I know, so I sealed their powers and sent people to watch them."

"Well, I'm not questioning your decision. I'm just a little curious that you took me with you this time instead of choosing Janice."

Roland, who was disguised as a black-robed magician, thought to himself that leaving you at home would not be enough to suppress those who had disloyalty. Feng Ling and Sandra could be suppressed, but they would have to hang on the tree for a few months and could not come down for the time being.

He smiled slightly and said softly, "We will face various complicated situations when we go out this time, and there may be sudden battles. You are stronger than them in combat, so I have to trouble you."

The green-robed elf was very pleased with Roland's praise.

She closed her eyes, smiled, and after a moment she said softly, "Although it's against my will, I like to hear it. I know that only if Janice stays at home can those guys be calmed down."

Roland held Melanie's hand and did not answer. Instead, he said softly, "Everyone has their own strengths. No one can replace you on this trip. That's the fact."

Melanice moved closer to Roland and said softly, "After this trip, will I have two more little sisters?"

"It's nothing, don't think about it."

Roland smiled and said, "Lily will ascend the throne when she returns. Queen Aurora never marries someone outside her family. This is an old rule that has been passed down for several eras. You are not allowed to mention such embarrassing words again."

Seeing that Roland's denial was not because he didn't like Lily, but because Queen Aurora couldn't marry outside the family, Melanie seemed to understand something and said with a smile, "What about Her Highness Lucy?"

"She wants to walk the path of a strong person, and emotions will only make her confused."

Roland shook his beloved wife's hand and said softly, "You seem to want me to marry more wives?"

"I haven't thought about it that much. I just think that marrying Miss Lily will help you unite with the Oro Kingdom, which will be of great help to you."

Sure enough.

Since becoming his wife, Melanie's mentality has changed fundamentally, and she now considers issues from Roland's perspective.

Roland stopped and turned his gaze to Melanie, saying with a serious expression:

"I've never thought about this. You and Janice were married to each other naturally. I'm not willing to sell everything."

Seeing Roland's firm attitude, Melanie stopped dwelling on the topic.

Protected by soundproof magic, no one else could hear what they were saying, so she could speak freely.

"If Green is really determined, I'm afraid our five thousand men won't be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth."

"My dear, it is indeed progress that you can think of this step. Now that you have thought of this, why don't you think about it more?"

Melanice knew she had guessed wrong, so she frowned and thought.

After a long while, she slowly said, "Could it be that you have some shameful deal with the Senate or even Prince Green?"

Roland was somewhat speechless. He sighed and said softly, "Trading requires capital. Do you think I have the capital to trade with them?"

Melanice hesitated, smiled and shook her head, "I do have the capital, but you definitely won't need it."

"You are so cold-blooded that you can actually use poor little sisters as bargaining chips."

Roland knew what Melanie was talking about and changed the subject with a smile.

Melanice whispered, "I don't mind doing anything as long as it's good for you."

She looked up at Roland and asked curiously, "Roland, I still remember that when we first met, you were very flexible in doing things for practical benefits, but now..."

"Flexible? You mean you have no bottom line?"

Roland smiled and explained, "It was a different time. I had no choice at the time. If I couldn't put aside my principles and bottom line, I wouldn't even be able to survive the crisis of declaring war on the eleven forces."

"But it's different now. I am now a recognized hero of the human race. The title of hero is certainly a burden, but it is also a huge halo and appeal."

"In the past six months, at least a million people have come to Gracia from all over the world. Are these pioneers coming for some shameless and despicable lord?"

Converging benefits, he whispered to himself: "Flexible bottom line does not mean no bottom line. If being a good person can gain more benefits, I am not opposed to being a good person."

Melanie suddenly realized.

She said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have such a stereotype."

"There is a huge gap in strength between us and Green. Can 5,000 people escort Miss Lily to the throne?"

Roland laughed heartily, with a smug smile on his face.

"Lily is already the Queen of Aurora, and has been recognized by the Senate and Green. In fact, they are all waiting for me to escort Lily back."

"Are they crazy?"

Melanice was so surprised that her mouth was wide open. Her brain was working rapidly, but she still couldn't think of any reason why Green would acquiesce to the fact.

The Senate is easy to deal with; who becomes king has little impact on their lives.

They are like the rangers on Roland's side.

High level, good pay, little work, and so boring every day that I need to find something to do.

They would be very happy if a fight for the crown prince took place.

Only when something happens will these veterans who usually serve as mascots become the protagonists.

But Green is different.

If Lily returned to the country and took power, the best outcome for him would be to be stripped of his honor as regent and retire on the spot.

If Lily was serious about investigating, someone had to be held accountable for the king's death.

No one is more suitable to take the blame than Green.

Looking at Melanice's surprised expression, Roland smiled like a little fox.

"I didn't do anything except make Green believe that I was going to accuse Lily in the Senate."

"Only when Lily is deposed by the Senate can he legitimately take the throne. Even though he knows the risks, he can't refuse."

Melanie suddenly realized.

This is Roland's blind spot in catching Green.

"What if Green intercepts us halfway? After all, the people of Oro don't know that Lily is the new queen yet."

Melanice said worriedly.

Roland was prepared for her question, and said with a bit of pride: "Since the common people don't know, we will find a way to let them know. When we arrive at the Auro Royal City, I will let everyone know that Lily is their king!"

Volume 205: The City of Freedom: Chapter : Disturbing someone’s sweet dreams, death!

Roland followed the story of Liu Bei going to the Eastern Wu to get engaged, and he promoted the return of Queen Oro with great fanfare, even recruiting reporters to follow him and film him, so as to spread the good news quickly.

He knew the Oro people, they were very proud.

At the current rate, it won’t be long before the whole world knows that the new king of Oro is Lily.

It would be difficult for the Senate to impeach her unless she committed a serious mistake that would anger both the people and the people.

Everyone knows that Lily is the new queen, but she was impeached right after returning to the country. What does this mean? Is there a civil strife in your Oro Kingdom?

Even if it does not want to surprise friendly countries, the Senate will not easily change the king.

Of course, if Lily really instructed her sister to kidnap the queen of a friendly country and threaten the king, then she must be impeached.

The escort team passed through many cities and countries along the way. Every time they arrived at a place, Lily would make an appearance under the arrangement of Landis.

After being sad, Lily gradually accepted the reality.

She could understand Roland's good intentions, and he made a big fuss to spread the fact of her succession, taking advantage of the Senate's weakness of saving face to create a fait accompli.

Unless Green launches a coup or sends someone to assassinate her, she will have no choice but to accept reality.

To prevent her from being assassinated, Roland also sent 5,000 elite soldiers to escort her along the way.

She knew that the elves and druids were Roland's true heirs, and that they were sincere in allocating 5,000 men to escort her.

Roland has done his best.

The Kingdom of Gracia was in a state of disrepair and was unable to support a large military expedition.

Even if an army of 100,000 were mobilized, the Kingdom of Oro would still be no match for them.

If Green took the risk of launching a coup, she could only wish for the best.

Roland had done his best for her as an ally, so she shouldn't complain.

But why didn't he even want to see this?

If she unfortunately died in the coup, would he regret it?

Princess Lily sighed softly, with a hint of sadness between her brows.

She knew Green, a selfish, crazy but somewhat cowardly guy. He probably wouldn't dare to launch a coup to seize power at the risk of his entire family's lives, but he certainly had the guts to send assassins to kill her.

It is very appropriate to use a comment from an ancient book to describe him: "He forgets his life when he sees small profits, and cherishes his body when he is doing great things."

Her brother can't handle a situation where he's at a disadvantage.

All he could do was probably send someone to assassinate her in the next few days.

This is also the reason why Roland sent 5,000 elite troops and a large number of experts to escort them.

These few days are destined not to be peaceful.

If Roland could send his strongest fighters, she would definitely feel more secure.

It's a pity that I can't send them because they are all busy.

Feng Ling and Sandra evolved on the World Tree, and Melanice and Janice were the queen and princess, so Roland would definitely not be willing to send them on risks.

Although Sophia is strong, she is the Princess of Fran and will not act rashly.

Occasionally, a glimmer of fantasy would flash through Lily's mind.
