Reject me, you damn woman.

Fortunately, Her Highness Hedwig borrowed Elena's magic power in time to summon the heroic spirit of His Majesty Rudolf, turning the tables and resolving the crisis.

But this time it was peaceful, but what about the future?

Instead of pretending to be deaf and dumb and worrying about it all the time, it is better to make it clear all at once so that the two of them don’t have to worry about Lin En all the time.

"Shia, are you ready?"

Elena secretly gave her friend a look.

"Don't worry, Xiao Ai, I will definitely squeeze this trash dry this time!"

Historia responded with a firm look.

Elena nodded.

Classmate Lin En, you won’t be allowed to escape this time!

"Student Lin, tell me, why are you so close to that princess? This has deviated from the original intention of helping Xia seize the throne. Why did you do that?"

After asking the question, Elena stared at Lynn, trying to grasp the details of his every move.

"Because I found that the interests of Her Highness Hedwig and I are not in conflict, so we will work together. That's all for now. As for why, you could say it's for the purple gold flower or the fire rose, but that's too hypocritical. Those are just incidental. I'd rather say it's for myself, and of course for... you."

Linn said seriously.

All true?!

Elena couldn't help but blink her eyes. This was very different from the cunning and sophistry Lin En had imagined, and it actually disrupted her pace.

"Then...why did you keep it a secret from us? And, with all due respect, I don't understand how this has anything to do with us."

Elena continued to ask.

"It's for your safety, but more importantly, it's because I was caught off guard by the changes in the situation."

Lynn said slowly,

"I'm sorry, but I have something to confess to you two. In addition to Princess Historia, there was another important reason why I came to Fire Rose. It was because I received an oracle."

"oracle?!"

Elena's pupils shrank slightly. It was obvious that she knew the value of this word. Moreover, they were also the few people who knew that Lin En possessed the power of the Three Gods' Chosen Ones.

As a person blessed by God, it was not surprising to receive the oracle. What was surprising was that Lin En would actually carry it out obediently.

As if he understood the girl's expression, Lin En shook his head:

"Don't get me wrong. When I said I received an oracle, it wasn't because I was willing to be ordered around by the gods, but because I might have some personal grudges with that god, and coming here would help me figure it out. As for which god it was, I'm sorry I can't explain it in detail."

Although Lin En's tone was calm, it was as shocking as thunder to the ears of the two girls.

Even though for this continent, the era when gods walked the earth is an era that is infinitely more distant than the longest unit of time in history, the belief in gods is still one of the most powerful and ancient forces on this continent.

However, ordinary people would not be able to have even a ten-thousandth of connection with these ancient and powerful beings no matter how hard they tried. Lin En actually admitted that he had a grudge with a god?

Elena swallowed.

Although shocking, this actually makes some sense.

This would be something Lynn would do...

"So, what do you mean by unexpected?"

Elena continued to ask.

"Because I seem to have misjudged the situation of Fire Rose."

Lynn sighed, he really meant what he said.

"I originally thought it was just a boring drama about Her Highness Historia and her five siblings fighting for the throne. I could definitely help her seize the throne while resolving the issue with the god, but I didn't expect these two things to be connected. The situation of the Fire Rose is so bad because the previous king was absent. It is too weak and too confused, and it is also too deeply involved with the Magic Bell Tower."

"Magic Bell Tower?"

Historia's brain was completely burned out. Although Elena could still barely keep up, she was shocked by the new shocks that kept popping up and was speechless.

It's actually related to the Demon Bell Tower again.

Elena still remembered several face-to-face encounters with those arcane maniacs, or rather, they were so impressive that she could never forget them.

In the Treasure Master Examination, they were able to quietly infiltrate almost all the examiners. In the holiday castle, the Shadow Queen casually raised a terrifying tide of beasts that covered the sky and the sun.

"Yes, the Magic Bell Tower."

Lynn nodded.

"If I'm not mistaken, the Magic Bell Tower is the one who actually tried to steal the fire. Those arcane lunatics don't care about other people's lives in order to achieve their own goals. Maybe even the gradual chaos of the Fire Rose was pushed by them. They are the real force standing behind His Highness Zevis."

He paused,

"If the Magic Bell Tower truly controls the Fire Rose, they will definitely not let go of the Purple Gold Flower that has repeatedly ruined their plans, and the Fire Rose will become their consumables and playthings. Therefore, whether for the Purple Gold Flower or the Fire Rose, I will not let them succeed. The easiest way is to end the King's Election as soon as possible and choose a new king to inherit the Secret Fire. Her Highness Hedwig has the same idea as me on this point, so we will join forces to try to quickly end the King's Election by forcibly stealing the Secret Fire."

"I see."

Elena murmured softly.

It turned out that in silence, out of sight of the two, Lin En had already thought about and done so many things on his own...

Before this, Elena and Historia's emotions towards Lin were mostly anger and concealment from the other party.

Now, the two of them feel more distressed towards each other.

The Prince of Flame Flower from the Purple Gold Flower.

He deserves this honor.

That wise heroic king must have used this method to express his gratitude to this young man.

Although she had almost said all the questions she wanted to ask, Elena still couldn't help but pick up the teacup and said with a bit of loneliness:

"I see. We understand you. However, it must be very hard to do all this alone. Lin En must have found a new partner who is compatible with you, right?"

"A new companion who is compatible with you?"

Lynn frowned.

"Who are you talking about?"

Elena was stunned for a moment, but seeing that Lin En's expression did not seem fake, she still said:

"Xia and I are both arcane masters, but Her Highness Hedwig is a mortal. Lin En actually teamed up with her. He must trust her very much, right?"

As she said this, Elena lowered her head and clasped her hands in front of her.

The graceful figure of that prince flashed through her mind.

I felt pity for her, with her delicate and beautiful silver hair, and her tall and slender figure, especially...that place. Using Xia as the unit of measurement was already an insult to her.

Coupled with his calm and steady personality and experience, Lin En was even more attracted to him...it seemed natural that he trusted him.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Elena's question, Lin En shook his head directly:

"No, actually, I don't really trust that prince."

"Eh?"

This answer was somewhat unexpected to both of them.

"Call it my personal bias or my intuition, but I always feel that my acquaintance with His Highness and our joint actions were too smooth and coincidental. And, to put it bluntly,

Lynn explained seriously,

"In my eyes, she is hiding more and more things that are wrong than what I see in you two. I cannot trust her completely for now. We are just using each other. I will verify the truth of what she said in my own way."

"Then it must be Lady Celitia of the church. She is gentle and capable, and a powerful clergyman. The last time we met, you, a small fry, seemed to have a close relationship with her."

Historia picked up a piece of dessert and stuffed it into her mouth, muttering in dissatisfaction.

Lin En continued to smile and shook his head:

"Sister Celitia is indeed powerful and kind, but as a powerful clergyman, this is both her advantage and her shackles. She cannot escape the framework of faith in God. It's not that I don't trust her, but I can't completely trust the God behind her. Therefore, I can't rest assured to tell her everything."

"Then Sister Hilteria should be fine, right? She played a huge role in helping you turn the tables today!"

Historia's voice sounded a little sour.

"This can only be regarded as Her Highness Hilteria's return of favor, as her way of thanking me for the disturbance caused by Her Highness Zevis."

Lynn still shook her head.

"So you don't trust this, and you have concerns about that. Is there anyone in Rose City that you can completely trust and that you are willing to tell everything to?"

"You can't say Mr. Olar."

Historia complained quietly, and went to touch the new cookies.

Lynn smiled but said nothing.

Bang!

Suddenly the cookie fell from her hand back onto the plate.

Wait, something's wrong!

There seemed to be two people here who were willing to tell Lin everything and the truth, and who could even chat with him over tea!

Elena also figured this out and looked at Lin En in shock and delight.

The people he trusts the most are actually...them? !

..........

Get it!

Leaving the two people sitting on the sofa in excitement and happiness, Lynn got up and left.

This is his response to the crisis of trust.

Sincerity is the secret weapon!

Just tell the truth.

Of course, it is partially true.

However, regarding the system and the complicated relationship between himself and the Earth Mother, it was not that Lin En was deliberately mysterious and unwilling to tell the two of them. In fact, it was to protect them.

As for the Shura field where the little nun was gloating, it was completely non-existent in Lin En's eyes.

He wasn't bragging, as long as he wasn't being rejected in pursuit, Lin En had never suffered any loss.

No, as I was talking, tears seemed to be about to overflow.

But anyway...can this level be called Shura Field?

Totally not enough!

It's so simple and easy.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Seeing that the two girls had not yet recovered from their joy and the huge amount of information, Lin En got up and went to open the door. However, when he vaguely heard the familiar voices of the people talking through the door, Lin En's heart skipped a beat and his hand on the door handle suddenly stopped.

"Hey, Master Lin En, why don't you open the door when you have guests?"

At this time, the head maid came down from upstairs, wiping her hands with her apron and reaching out to open the door.

"Wait, don't!"

Lynn tried to stop it, but it was too late.

The door was opened, revealing two tall figures outside.

"You are worthy of being Her Highness Hedwig. I heard that it was thanks to you that Lin En was put on trial today. Now you are in a hurry to visit him. Aren't you afraid of what others will gossip about? Ah, Brother Lin En...Lin En, you are here?"

Celia, who had her long cherry-pink hair flying, cast a concerned look at Lin En the first time she saw the door open.

"No, no, Mother Superior Celidia also has deep feelings for Your Highness Lin En. I just don't know why I didn't see you in the throne room just now. Was it your attendant nun who did it for me? Your Highness Lin En, I forgot to mention something just now. Do you mind bothering me again?"

Hedwig kept a perfect smile on her face, and after opening the door, her narrowed eyes opened a little, but the light in her eyes was much more dangerous and alert than when she and Lynn were in the Fire Trial.

...........

Five minutes later, in the lounge area, the four women's eyes were focused on someone who had returned from taking the guests' teacups in place of the head maid who had fled.

Elena was the first to notice Lin En who was still standing nearby:

"Student Lin En, there is still a vacant seat here."

But others soon followed:

"If you don't mind, you can sit next to me."
