I let the genie out of the bottle

Seeing the smile on Lu Ye's face, Liliana was stunned.

Then, to her astonishment, Lu Ye walked to her side and put his arm around her neck.

Chapter 50 You Just Drive

"Huh? Huh?"

As Lu Ye moved, Liliana's azure eyes widened in surprise.

A shy blush quickly crept up her fair cheeks, and even her small ears turned bright red instantly.

"Your Majesty, I...I...I—"

The sudden display of intimacy in Lu Ye's actions left her speechless, her mind momentarily blank.

Feeling the intense heat on her face, Liliana knew she must look incredibly embarrassing.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

but--

How can you stay calm in a situation like this?

The blushing young female knight wailed inwardly.

Especially when she noticed the slightly ambiguous and teasing looks in the eyes of the people around her, she felt like crying and her shame almost exploded.

Moreover, he could feel the heat emanating from Lu Ye, the slightly salty and fishy smell of the bloodstains on his body, and even his somewhat heavy heartbeat...

Although Liliana appears to be a somewhat innocent and capable girl, she actually has a slightly repressed and passionate personality.

When she has nothing to do, she sometimes reads chivalric romance novels with slightly restricted plots, and sometimes she even tries to write some herself.

So, at times like this, the little train in her heart has already started its journey.

When Lu Ye saw Liliana's current state, he immediately showed a slightly speechless expression.

He knew this girl to some extent, so seeing her so embarrassed, he could guess what she was thinking.

However, it was indeed because his actions at that moment were too abrupt, which inevitably led others to misunderstand.

Just as Liliana was feeling dizzy, she suddenly felt a heavy weight on her shoulder.

It was as if... someone had placed most of their weight on their shoulders.

Or rather, they see themselves as the support for their bodies.

"Eh? Your Majesty?" Liliana was slightly taken aback and turned her head to look.

Lu Ye subtly placed one hand on her shoulder, a teasing smile on his face.

However, if we're talking about eye contact...

Seeing that indifferent look in her eyes, Liliana was instantly jolted awake.

She's not stupid; she just got caught off guard and went astray.

Now, he instantly understood Lu Ye's intention.

Although she still couldn't suppress the shame in her heart.

"Lily, take me to my new place."

Lu Ye gently lowered his head and whispered in Liliana's ear.

"Yes, yes! I understand, Your Majesty, I will take you there immediately."

Liliana shuddered slightly and immediately replied.

She noticed it.

After a battle with a god-slayer of the same level, although it was not obvious, the demon king beside him was also very weak.

She even lacks the strength to walk.

Perhaps to maintain his face and dignity, or perhaps out of fear that someone might take advantage of his weakness, he tried his best to avoid his predicament being discovered.

Therefore, he uses these actions to rely on himself and conceal his weakness.

After thinking all this through, Liliana felt an overwhelming sense of mission.

She was already prepared to pledge allegiance to Lu Ye, the newly born god-slayer, and now she truly understood what it meant to die for one who understands you.

Therefore, Liliana secretly resolved in her heart that she must never betray the trust placed in her by the person she served.

"Wang, the vehicles have been arranged. We can head this way."

Seeing Lu Ye remove his arm from her shoulder, Liliana suppressed her shyness and took the initiative to hug Lu Ye's arm, subtly supporting her body.

Lu Ye's hand remained poised to break the seal at any moment.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that Liliana was quite cooperative with him.

Compared to others, Liliana is probably someone who can be trusted to some extent.

If that's the case, then there's no need to resort to the final means.

Although Lu Ye still didn't let go of the bottle.

Using worldviews for psychological suggestion wouldn't be a big burden on him.

However, he was already quite mentally exhausted from using the worldview to make small-scale modifications to the world before.

The fatigue caused by using mental suggestion almost became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

If he hadn't already reached an agreement with the little devil, allowing him to call for backup at any time, he really wouldn't have dared to act so recklessly.

You're pushing yourself too hard right now.

The loli demon spoke in a slightly sentimental voice.

"Before you even engaged him in battle, your mind was already exhausted from learning the magic system of this world using the process of omitting steps."

"When you fight him, you have to use your worldview, which puts a lot of mental strain on you."

"If you were at your peak and fought him, you wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state."

"I find it hard to understand why you are so eager for power."

"Isn't my thirst for power a good thing for you too?" Lu Ye thought to himself, barely managing to open his eyes despite his exhaustion.

At this moment, the heart in his chest, created by Mozlis, was beating slowly but powerfully, constantly generating magic that was transported throughout his body to heal his injuries and fatigue.

However, mental fatigue is difficult to relieve in a short time.

It seems I need to take a well-deserved rest.

"Yes, you thirst for power so much, then the day I gain my freedom may come sooner than you imagine."

Mozlis's tone was slightly wistful.

"However, I find it somewhat difficult to understand this thirst for power—a seemingly endless thirst, a thirst for fear of falling behind even a step."

"Is it hard to understand?" Lu Ye nodded slightly, his expression unchanged. "Very good. It's best that you can't understand it."

"Eh?"

The loli demon wore an expression of utter disbelief.

"Your Majesty, shall we go directly to our new residence?"

Liliana, sitting in the driver's seat, turned to look at Lu Ye in the passenger seat and asked cautiously.

At this moment, Lu Ye leaned back in his chair, his eyes gently closed.

He had one hand tucked into his pocket and the other resting on his leg.

"Just go directly," Lu Ye replied without even opening his eyes.

Then he added a sentence.

"You just drive, the solution... um, let me rest for a bit first."

P.S.: I'll just focus on updating; readers can decide how much to vote for.

Chapter Fifty-One: Returning to One's True Nature!

"Liliana, if anyone comes to visit, remember to tell them that I am currently processing my thoughts after the battle with the Sword King and do not have time."

Lu Ye stood in front of the bedroom door, turned around and gave Liliana a word of advice.

After saying that, he didn't wait for Liliana's response and pushed open the door to enter the bedroom.

"I understand, King."

Seeing the door already closed, Liliana bowed respectfully, turned and walked outside.

Now that she has become the king's subordinate, or rather, his only direct knight, there are some things that only she can do.

After all, once the King defeated the Sword King, those fence-sitters had probably made up their minds and knew which side they should stand on.

Therefore, during the time the king was resting, it is estimated that quite a few people came to pay their respects.

Liliana was already prepared for this.

Even though she wasn't good at handling political affairs, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and take on the task at this time.

The only saving grace is that, given Wang's style of doing things, probably no one would dare to make things difficult for him.

Then, with these thoughts in mind, Liliana silently waited for someone to come and visit her.

Contrary to her expectations of a constant stream of messengers from various magic societies, even though the pot of tea she had brewed had gone completely cold, not a single person came to her door.

"Could it be that they believe the king still has things to do after the victory, such as—"

Her confused mutterings abruptly stopped.

Then, I reorganized my thoughts.

"There's something to do..."

Wait a minute, when Wang and I came back, we seemed to be acting... very intimately?

Liliana's eyes widened as she suddenly realized this.

Therefore, those magic societies probably didn't send anyone to disturb them because they dared not.

Suddenly realizing what was happening, Liliana instantly transformed into a steam princess.

......

This is a forest located somewhere in the Balkans of Eastern Europe.

At the edge of the forest lies a clear lake, and apart from an exquisite wooden bridge, there are no other traces of human activity around it.

In the clear lake water, you can see many fish playing.

Suddenly, a black, plump fish, about 20 centimeters long, flicked its gray-black tail fin and swam forward.

It sensed that in front of it, a larva seemed to be wriggling under the impact of the water flow.

However, the creature's innate wariness prevented it from making any rash moves. Instead, it circled the larva first before cautiously approaching.

Then, it opened its mouth and gently bit the larva's tail, then carefully tugged at it.

The plump, tender texture of the worm in its mouth made it unconsciously increase the speed of its tail fin wagging slightly.

However, it did not act rashly, but instead released the food that was already in its mouth and stepped back a little.

A few seconds passed, and nothing still happened.

Besides, there seemed to be other fellow countrymen, possibly competing with him for food, approaching this place.
