Reject me, you damn woman.

Her Royal Highness, who was originally in a low mood, could no longer hold back.

Hedwig sighed slightly, puffed up her cheeks with a slightly helpless expression, and looked at the two of them:

"Your Highness Lin En, have you made enough of the trouble? Now, are you sure? Father's body is now surrounded by a death fog that is enough to kill him. Even if someone wants to do something to him, they have to avoid the fog first."

"That makes sense, that makes sense, I just didn't think it through."

Lynn echoed.

And in the dark, unnoticed, under the princess's drooped eyelids, a few casual smiles appeared, and then quickly disappeared.

"Now, can we begin the secret fire transmission ceremony?"

[This should finally be over, right?]

After hearing this, Historia's eyes, which had regained some energy, brightened.

Finally...it’s finally here!

My dream since childhood was to become a Fire King as powerful as my father and ancestors!

The moment of inheriting the secret fire, after that, he obtained the hidden power of the secret fire and became the new Fire King. He would naturally end all the current chaos in Fire Rose, restore order, and at the same time drive away all the enemies, so that this overwhelmed and struggling country could get back on track.

Now there is one more thing, which is to find a way to help dad recover!

Although, although there are still many things I don’t understand, fortunately, with the help of my sisters, maybe it won’t be too difficult... maybe?

I will work hard to become a qualified Fire King!

But...can you do it yourself?

Her eyes suddenly dimmed a little.

In fact, the feeling of having a childhood dream come true is not as happy as I imagined.

After being enlightened by Linn last night, Historia thought a lot.

What I thought about the most was not the joy of getting what I wanted, but the doubts about "Am I worthy of this position, and do I really want these?"

Because it was not until Lin En reminded him that Historia realized that the two things he wanted to do most after becoming the Fire King were to slap the faces of his other brothers and sisters, and the other was to take revenge on Lin En and ride him hard!

If it was Princess Historia, it was inevitable that she would have such thoughts.

However, for someone who is about to become the Fire King, is he worthy of this position if he still has such childish ideas?

If you think about it carefully, after returning to Rose City, everything she has done, how can it be worthy of the title of Fire King?

Historia is indeed working hard to improve herself.

Even the arrogant Hilteria commented that if she were given another year or two, she might become a real rival.

But the problem is, she doesn't have that one or two years.

Whether it was the crusade against Brother Zevis, the disturbance at the meeting of the crown princes, or the winning over of other forces, all of these seemed to be dependent on Lin En.

When it comes to managing a country or developing power, both Sister Hilteria and Sister Hedwig are much more suitable than himself.

Moreover, even if I become the Fire King, can I find a way to help my father recover?

The most important thing is, are you really ready to say goodbye to your past self?

Are you really ready to say goodbye to Zijinhua, Eden College, Xiao Ai, and...Lin En and the others?

Historia didn't know the answer to the question.

She suddenly remembered what the head maid said to her last night when she walked into her room:

"Xia, your mother has given everything for Fire Rose, and you are qualified to have your own choice."

Her own choice? Maybe she can also...

No, now is not the time to think about that!

The more confused a person is, the more likely they are to fail in the Secret Fire Ritual, but the current Fire Rose will not allow her to fail!

Historia tried to strengthen her will and was about to step forward.

Hedwig just looked at her sister quietly, and walked towards her step by step, showing a gratified smile:

"It seems that you are ready, Xia."

[Yes, that's right, Shia...]

"Please wait a moment!"

At this moment, a discordant note sounded again.

【you again! 】

"Are you still confused, Your Highness Lynn?"

Hedwig looked at Lynn and said helplessly.

"Ahem, sorry, but there's one more thing,"

Lynn cleared his throat and looked towards Historia.

"I have something to say to Historia-sama."

"me?"

Historia pointed at herself in confusion.

"If it's not urgent, how about waiting until after the ceremony?"

【Don't waste time! 】

Hedwig said.

"I'm sorry, but I just can't help but speak out. Please allow me to be willful."

Lynn said with some embarrassment.

"Since it's not urgent, I suggest waiting until after the Secret Fire is adopted."

Hedwig just smiled and repeated it again.

"That's it,"

Lynn sighed slightly.

"In that case, how about letting Historia-sama make the decision herself?"

As he spoke, he looked at Historia, and Hedwig turned her head subconsciously, only to find that Historia was also looking at her:

"Sister, let him talk. It won't take too long, okay?"

"why?"

【Why! 】

Hedwig couldn't help but say.

"elder sister?"

She rarely saw this calm sister looking as if she was about to argue with others.

"Okay, let's do as Xia said. Sorry, I didn't sleep well last night. I was a little anxious."

Hedwig rubbed her brows.

Historia did not doubt him and looked at Lynn:

"Lin, what do you want to say to me?"

Lynn was startled.

"I'm a little uncomfortable with you not being called a trash fish."

Historia just pursed her lips and smiled.

"But, it is like this,"

Lin En turned his face away slightly, as if a little embarrassed, then turned around and said seriously:

"I have to apologize to you, Historia-sama."

"apologize?"

Historia repeated the word once before speaking truthfully:

"You have nothing to apologize to me for. I owe you a lot."

"No, let's be honest. I am the one who wants to apologize to you."

Lynn shook her head.

"My tone was a little off last night, I hope you don't mind. At the same time, since you are going to become the Fire King, I have to give you my blessing."

"Thank you."

Historia extended her hand and said politely:

"Have a heart."

"Well, a blessing is just a sentence."

"........"

Historia withdrew her hand.

"You say it."

"Blessing is,"

Lin En said seriously:

"Your Highness Historia, I hope that even after you become the Fire King, you will not become less Historia."

Historia just smiled when he heard this:

"Isn't it better to be Historia? Don't you hate me like that? Childish, naive, weak, stupid and unable to accomplish anything."

"I hate you like that?"

Lin En was startled and said seriously,

"I never said anything like that."

This time it was Historia's turn to be stunned:

"Are you serious?"

"I am serious."

Lynn said confidently,

"As for the shortcomings you mentioned, I have never felt that they were your shortcomings. I believe that Elena thinks so too. Naivety - if you were not naive enough to give everything you know to someone you like at first sight, as a princess, you would never become good friends with Elena. I call this quality: generosity."

"Innocence - You will always fight against injustice, and fight against impossible enemies and authority for your friends. I call this quality: justice."

"Weakness - you are never weak. You compromise with other crown princes for the sake of the people you consider to be family. This is not weakness. I call it: bravery."

"As for being stupid and accomplishing nothing, I don't deny it,"

He suddenly changed the subject.

"But, even though you are so stupid, you have actually accomplished many things that others cannot do."

"If you hadn't forced your way into the exam room, I wouldn't have been able to enter. Elena might have been injured. At the ball at the Royal Palace Dragon Blood Festival, you were the first one to stand up and encourage everyone not to give up. You did something that none of the Purple Gold Flower nobles had done."

He suddenly smiled again:

"Do you remember the potion you made during the Potions exam that made the sick mice stand up and beat up the invigilator? Now that is the favorite military stimulant formula of the Purple Gold Flower Army."

Following his narration, Historia couldn't believe it:

"Am I really that powerful?!"

"I can't guarantee that you are amazing, but this is how Historia looks to me."

"But I think it's pretty cool for you to become the Fire King. So, even if you become the Fire King, you should not become less of Historia. That's the right thing to do."

"In other words, perhaps Historia-sama, who abandons his brain and uses only his intuition, will be able to do something even more unexpected."

"I just think you're thinking of something audacious right now, but you need some encouragement,"

Lin En stretched out a fist from a distance, as if he was going to fight with the other party in the air.
