People in Terra, governing a bizarre little country

"It was only after I learned this that I gave up those unrealistic ideas. I am not my father, and I do not want to become like him. I will not say that my father deserved to die, after all, he wronged everyone, but he was ultimately worthy of me as his daughter. However, I will not defend him, because the price he paid for being worthy of me was that countless people wronged their daughters because of him."

She paused, reached out, and gently wiped the snow off Ernst's head, saying softly:

"So, when I met you, when I came to Shelag, when I truly discovered that I could use my hands and my mouth to do something for more people, how excited I was!"

"That's why when the Victoria issue was brought up again, and when I found that I seemed to have the ability to do something, but I was completely clueless and couldn't think of a solution, I felt regret."

Unfortunately, it could not stop the infighting among the Grand Dukes, the destruction of the Steam Knights in Londinium, the harm inflicted on the citizens of Londinium by Sarkaz extremists, or prevent Victoria, the rising sun, from taking its final, feeble steps toward the setting sun after less than a century.

"I haven't wronged anyone, so I can sleep soundly this night."

"But I can do more, yet I'm limited by my abilities, so I didn't sleep soundly this time."

“I didn’t want to trouble you with these things. I should have handled them myself. I’m sorry to have worried you, Ernst.”

+咎四钐路肿转: Ernst put down the noodles in his hand.

Actually, I didn't eat much; Vina's cooking skills aren't very good.

"It's alright, I should have expected this."

Ernst Road,

“Right now, Victoria and other countries are all expecting you to make a statement. I suggest you take a low-key approach, because not making a statement is also a form of statement.”

"I maintain that, based on my understanding and experience, this is the best decision. But if you want to comment on Victoria's situation, I agree."

Ernst gritted his teeth:

"As long as it's not too excessive."

“I can authorize the organization of a humanitarian aid team in the name of Sherag, or I can establish a charitable foundation to raise funds for the reconstruction of Londinium. If you wish, I can submit an application to the Duke’s coalition.”

"Once the situation in Lentinium has calmed down, you will be your representative to visit Lentinium."

Vina's lips parted slightly.

She knew, of course, that Ernst, with his typically cautious nature, was unlikely to make such a decision.

It's obvious whose feelings he's taking care of.

"why?"

She asked, somewhat puzzled.

Ernst took a deep breath and said:

"The condition is that you cannot leave."

"Sherrag needs you, and I need you too."

"But I never said I was leaving!"

Vina answered instinctively. The next second, seeing Ernst's stunned expression, she suddenly understood something and pinched her thigh hard under the table.

Why are you spouting nonsense?

Without a second thought, she stood up abruptly and, before Ernst could react, swiftly hugged him and brought her face close to his.

The lion's arms were very strong, and Ernst had no time to resist, nor could he resist. What followed was a warm touch on his lips.

"However, I promise you."

A somewhat hesitant kiss, a hasty attempt to make amends, and a flustered heart—all these combined to form a soft, domineering yet shy whisper from the lips of the young Aslan.

"I'm not going anywhere."

Chapter 555 Sherag Behemoth Parenting Association

Shelag, an unknown mountain, is the location of the "Behemoth Tea Party Plus" version.

Gawain had been watching Jeragand for a while now.

I don't know what's gotten into him all of a sudden. It's almost dark, and instead of going back to Manju Temple early to cook a couple of dishes for that holy lady as usual, he's still stuck on this mountain peak.

Let her stay where she wants; she's the Queen of Sherag, she can be wherever she wants. Gawain, being a dependent, has no right to urge her to leave. But the problem is, Yeragand is indeed behaving a bit strangely.

"Hey hey hey"

Although he hadn't seen His face, Gawain's extensive experience allowed him to mentally visualize Jeragand's current expression.

His eyes were probably already squinting, and his mouth was probably drooling. It was hard to say whether he was drooling or not, since Gao Wen didn't dare to actually take a look.

"Uh, how long has He been in this state?"

Nian, returning from the construction site in Kazdelnia, sat down next to Gawain, a chili pepper dangling from his mouth, and curiously patted Gawain's back, asking a question. Meanwhile, Xi, standing nearby, looked at Yeragand with a somewhat complicated expression.

This seems a bit far-fetched. Can such a behemoth really save us?

No, to be honest, Yeragand had been quite reliable for a while, hadn't she? Although she was much younger than both her and Nian, she seemed much more dependable than Nian, who was such a carefree guy. She was a giant beast with what humans call "maternal instincts." How could she suddenly turn into this?

Could it be that he was stimulated by something?

Xi couldn't help but turn her gaze to Gao Wen, hoping to get some clues from him.

Gawain shrugged his shoulder blades, vividly displaying his lion paws:

"How would I know? He only just became like this. Why don't one of you go and ask him?"

Gawain glanced at the two beasts present.

Nian and Xi exchanged a glance and shook their heads.

No one knows what happened to Jerahmand. What if we accidentally disturbed Him? Nian and Xi didn't want to do such a thing.

However, you can have someone else do it.

Nian pulled out the [Time Sequence] linked list hanging from his waist.

[Chronology] has been enjoying a period of good fortune, thanks to the existence of Nian, the proxy of the Sui beast capable of [transformation], allowing it to change bodies every few days. Initially, [Chronology] was somewhat resistant, after all, it had offended [Sui] to some extent during the Kazimierz International Games, and who knew if Nian, this Sui beast, would retaliate against it?

But gradually, after He was forced to change bodies several times and did nothing, He relaxed.

In any case, the body is just a vessel. His flesh had been scraped into a skeleton by that blood demon, and the blood of the giant beast had been sucked by him, but he felt nothing. Now, it has no effect on him at all.

By now, He has gotten used to being used by Nian as a training ground for the "Giant Beast Nikki". Maybe one day, Nian will actually be able to create another giant beast body for Him.

There was a reason why she did all this. With the help of the soul of [Time Sequence], she could also more quickly master how to build a container for a behemoth to contain its power. In general, it was a win-win situation for both sides.

"Although I was forced into it at first."

[Chronology] It's frustrating.

"Even now."

Year and Evening didn't want to bother Him, so they pushed the task to Him. He wanted to naturally push the task back to Gawain and let him do what he suggested. But Gawain was no ordinary person. How could Time Sequence possibly argue with him?

Of course, there's also the reason why He's too lazy to say it.

Because, how should I put it, after spending a long time with Jeragand, [Chronology] has come to understand Jeragand's temperament to some extent.

He is quite gentle and most likely won't get angry.

So, probably?

Q then cast several buffs on himself and prepared to abandon this body, as time slowly drifted behind Yeragand and nudged him on the shoulder:

"Yeragand, what are you laughing at?"

"Eh?"

Ya'er suddenly came to her senses and realized that quite a few people had gathered around her. She scratched her head a little embarrassedly.

But immediately, a smile returned to His face, and He said excitedly:

"Of course, it's great news!"

"Gawain, do you know what just happened?"

Gao Wen was slightly taken aback. Why was this related to me?

How would I know what just happened? I'm not like you, doing nothing all day but glancing around Shelag, you're a total weirdo!

Of course, he wouldn't dare say that.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Wencai realized he had probably been dozing off for the past few days and hadn't done anything, so it was unlikely he had caused any trouble. He cautiously asked:

"what happened?"

"Take a guess!"

Ya'er pouted, then held up a finger, looking very interested.

"Here's a hint, it's related to Vina!"

In that instant, Gao Wen thought of many things, as if the universe itself was appearing in his mind and expanding before his eyes. Countless pieces of knowledge, formulas, literary masterpieces, and famous quotes flashed through his mind.

Is it related to Vina? What could possibly make the behemoth Yeragand so happy? Why is it so important to her?

Has her bloodline reverted to its ancestral form? Has Luga Sargus possessed her? Has the Terra God-Emperor returned for a second expedition to the Burning Winds? No, this time it should be the Infi Icefield.

Should I report to Elder Sami beforehand? Is Sherag's force enough? How can I persuade Nian and Xi to come and help? What should I do? It feels like we're just being sent to our deaths! Should I still pawn my mount? The contract from back then should be almost fulfilled by now, or maybe I should just give it up?

But I've already let that girl ride me three times, and it doesn't seem to matter.

And Ernst, what's his attitude? Will Vina take him along? What role will he play? Advisor? That's that old woman Kal'tsit's old position, isn't it? It doesn't seem very auspicious. I feel like logistics would suit him better.

"Have you figured it out yet?" Ya'er asked expectantly.

Gao Wen pondered for a moment, then carefully said:

"I think this matter needs further consideration. I can contact a few old buddies and inform them of this; Sherag's current capabilities aren't quite sufficient."

"Huh?" Ya'er was taken aback. "Is this really that complicated?"

"It was just a kiss? There's no need to make it public, is there? I didn't realize you cared so much about Vina, Gawain. I thought you, a lion, had no conscience at all."

"I just feel that the timing and conditions are not yet ripe, and it's not advisable for us to [do something]."

Gawain stopped mid-sentence, raised his lion head, and looked at Yeragand, whose face was full of satisfaction. Although there shouldn't be any expression on that lion's face, Gawain still transcended racial limitations with his actions.

"Did you kiss him?" Gao Wen asked.

"Yes!" Ya'er nodded emphatically!

"Who kissed whom? Vina, did she kiss Ernst?" Gawain asked again.

"Yes, that's incredibly bold! I've never seen anything like it before, like someone pouncing on their prey! Luckily, I deactivated the automatic defense in time, or that girl might have gotten hurt! I definitely need to improve the defense trigger mechanism in the future!"

Ya'er patted her chest, looking like she was relieved.

Gawain's mouth twitched, but with a last glimmer of hope, he asked:

"Then what? What happened?"

“Vina ran away, and Ernst stood there in the room, then helped wash the dishes.”

Ya'er sighed,

"What a good child, so virtuous."

Who are you praising? Ernst?

Gao Wen slapped himself in the face, and that expression finally became visible on his face.

That kind of expression is called "That's it?"

Ya'er also noticed Gawain's sudden, deflated slump, and was immediately puzzled:

"Aren't you happy?"

"What's there to be happy about?" Gao Wen rolled his eyes. "It's no big deal."

I thought that silly girl had finally come to her senses, but it turned out she just gave me a kiss and that was it. Aslan is getting worse with each generation. Back in Luca Sargus's time, when he liked someone, his main strategy was to take advantage of her and leave her there!

Gawain admired those who, under normal circumstances, could maintain their rationality and control their desires, diligently serving as mature rulers. Yet, when it was time to unleash their desires, they could be ruthless and unscrupulous in their plundering and conquest, shouting, "I'm fed up with all the formalities!" before tearing off their armor and engaging in hand-to-hand combat until dawn!

Why did Luca Sargus dare to separate Aslan from Felin and elevate him to a sacred bloodline? Wasn't it because he was powerful enough, arrogant enough, and disdainful of everyone?

Even if the one standing in his way was the most powerful Khan in the history of the Nightmare Clan of the Gods—Harandu Khan, he dared to boldly leave the city and go to the plains, the area where his opponent was most proficient, to confront him head-on and demonstrate his kingly dominance.

Showdown!

It was precisely because of this that he and Haranduhan became friends after their initial conflict. Although they ultimately couldn't determine who was the dominant one, in the clash of blood and flesh, they became soulmates and close friends, charging together into the scorching land of the raging winds! Shatter the demons! Forced conquest!! Insult!!

Gawain's attitude clearly caught Ya'er off guard.

Such a big thing, how come he wasn't surprised at all?
