Chris's Faith of Fire

Just keep shaking, shaking...

Later, I don’t know what Lyles did. On the day of the execution, Eileen showed up. There were nine principal criminals headed by Andrea lined up on the guillotine. One of them was the one I saw when I had dinner with Eileen in the restaurant. Guy.

Ailian gave a heartfelt explanation. The moment she finished speaking, the people collectively threw debris at the prisoners on the stage...

"I felt something was wrong before. As expected, Princess Wu is also a bastard."

"If a poor person steals a piece of bread, he will be arrested. She is in cahoots with those rich merchants and nobles."

"nausea……"

"Mom, I remember Her Royal Highness Princess Wu once threw some change to us..."

"That's because he wants to win people's hearts."

The curses spread like ripples, one after another.

I looked back in the crowd and stopped looking. In the end I only heard the sound of the guillotine and the cheers of the people.

Princess of Two Moons, this time the younger one is left behind...

Few people knew that Ailian was actually an imperial daughter, and the speech prepared by Lyles seemed to be effective. Everyone inexplicably shouted the name of the emperor they had never cared about. The word "Your Majesty Aaron" seems to mean saving the country today. Heroes are praised by everyone.

No one noticed a tear falling from Ailian's eyes when she turned her head. Even if they noticed it, they would probably just think it was tears of emotion.

"Why are there two moons in the sky?"

"Lighting up the night sky, one is enough..."

The last thing I heard was... I don't know who it was.

◆ ◇

Ailian seems to have been in a state of collapse since then, but with the help of Lyles and Lorraine in the government affairs, order is still being restored in an orderly manner for the time being.

Standing halfway up the rocky mountain, I turned to look at this blond man. He seemed to have just been in memories and deep thoughts like me. Maybe he was remembering his father, or something else. Regarding this point We have no intention of exchanging each other's thoughts, so let's find another topic.

"Her Royal Highness Andrea once wanted to threaten the Bishop of the Holy City with two of you Paladins." Lorraine spoke first, "I should have noticed something was wrong at that time, what Princess Andrea and Willard did It’s about destroying the existing order.”

"And those two knights ran faster than me after their plan failed. At least they're on Chrissy's ship now."

I complained. Although I no longer felt that strong regret and unwillingness, Chris probably had her own thoughts. This was the only thing left in my mind to convince myself.

"Brother... don't talk about this again."

"Sorry, there are enough people feeling down right now."

"Going back to what I said at the beginning, I don't think Her Majesty Aaron can stay like this...she must stand up on her own, otherwise Lyles and I and you...will become the next Willard sooner or later."

Luo Lan is still worried about the emperor. If it weren't for the principle, I wouldn't want to pour cold water on him.

"Please exclude me. I will not always serve His Majesty. As for Lyles... forget it, I don't know him well."

Despite what I said before, I still love Chris, and I must go back to her... She asked me to help Ailian, so I will work hard here and lead an army to assist her in the future.

I hope that smart lame man can come back to Chrissy in the future. Chrissy can't live without him.

Loren seemed puzzled by my words. He tilted his head. His tall stature meant that he had to stand slightly lower so that I could look at him at eye level.

"You are still saying this now? You have sworn an oath on His Majesty's sword. She abandoned you on her own initiative. Are you going to do that for Miss Chris?"

asked the young knight.

The answer is already very clear, he just asked knowingly.

"My loyalty does not lose to yours, but the oath can only exist for one person. I respect His Majesty Aaron and she is very important to me, but I cannot serve two masters in my life."

Loren looked a little disappointed.

"Your Majesty, she loves you."

"She will change her mind in the future..."

"Perhaps, for Your Majesty's age, perhaps suffering another time will make her more mature, but definitely not in the near future... Then you will destroy her, Sir Farr."

I understand, of course, that just calling her Aaron broke Elaine's heart just as much as Chris's departure hit me.

"I hope you can always protect her and replace Andrea's promise."

"I will……"

Luo Lan left a short reply and left. The lonely figure shouldered not only the future of the empire, but also the burden of the family.

Maybe it’s time for me to return to my place. There are still many things to do... but there is very little time left for us.

Chrissy, have you arrived at Erin now... It would be great if it goes well.

Now that Noelle has become a true hero, we are not far from victory.

Soon I will be back with you, bearing gifts that will make you happy.

Just like the plot in the love novel you once told me.

Chapter 259 254. The Other Side

There are many cloudy days in the sea, but more often we see sunny weather. In fact, there is not much fog in the foggy sea, just because it is often cloudy and rainy on the shore, and people like to see places that are invisible to the naked eye. Just say it was covered by fog.

The West Wind Maiden is a two-masted sailboat. Originally, I thought a single-masted boat would be enough, but Ma Kai said that if you want to find Eileen, you must have a big one.The pine hull is dark brown, which shows that it has experienced some time at sea. I bought a new sail for 1000 casleys, which is not careless.

Ma Kai was ecstatic about buying the boat. On the first day, he ran from the bow to the stern, lay on the deck and ran to the cabin.

"Princess! Can I be the captain?"

"If you can do it well, do it."

"Oh yeah~ Beauty, let's have a close encounter." He lay on the boat and kissed the deck.

"Men really like toys no matter how old they are..." I said helplessly.

So Ma Kai turned into a captain and seemed to have a clear understanding of going to sea.There is not much decoration on the bow, but I can feel that the ship is very solid.At first, the original captain asked for 1 Kasley, but Ma Kai immediately stepped forward and started a verbal war with him.Nowadays, there are more and more monsters on the sea, and every time you go to sea, a huge amount of manpower is required... Ma Kai saw that this guy was impatient to sell the boat. Finally, the captain said okay, the boat will be sold for 6000, but the sailors must pay a high price. Transfer, 200 karsili per person per month.

Ma Kai readily agreed, but in the end he did not hire any sailors. Instead, he went to the arena and bought a few cheap sword slaves. These guys were strong and longed for freedom. They were once sold as slaves and stayed in the cabin. They had certain navigation skills. experience.

Regarding money, now that Willard is dead, his family property and the property of some new nobles will probably be taken away by Aileen within this month, including the operating profits of the arena and some contracts between businessmen are also considered illegal. , I received [-] karsili from Aileen as the expenses for the journey. Considering that I helped her so much, this amount of money is not too much.

The snake-headed spider had been hanged before we came to the Empire, which was very unexpected. We thought he was just locked up, but we heard that he extradited important prisoners so we could not forgive him.We had no choice but to rely on our own sense of direction and the antique maps we bought to determine the direction. The merchants in Gilkern had some navigation instruments, but unfortunately they were too expensive, enough to buy a small boat.

However, money cannot be spent at sea, so you must be fully prepared.Considering that there was no guide, Ma Kai purchased several months of dry food and fresh water and stored them in the cabin, and set off the day after the Red Feast.

I deliberately left Fami behind in the empire.Me, Alvis, Makai, Hakkar, all the Sons of Zersi, the Orc Guards, and the Sword Slaves of the Arena.In the end, I almost forgot that the two paladins given to us by Cardinal Patricia were also captured by Princess Wu during the battle. I almost forgot about it. I really don’t know what they were here for... I didn’t want to take them away, but Alves reminded me that if they were discovered by the imperial nobles, the alliance with Patricia would break, so I had no choice but to let the two of them board the ship.

All in all, there were about 30 people in the group, and I took them on board the West Wind Maid to sail into the unknown blue sea.

One thing was miscalculated.

There were all men on the ship, and I was the only girl... When I bought the sword slave, the slave owner originally suggested that Ma Kai buy a female slave so that the men could vent their desires. If they sailed at sea for a long time without women, the sailors would go crazy.Although I took this into consideration, I didn't want anyone in my team to contract a strange disease, so I refused.

But it turns out that imagination is often naive. After about half a month, let alone them, even I became a little lonely and unbearable...

These guys started to come to my room more often. Alves once blushed and didn’t know what to say. In short, he came to my cabin and sat there for about two hours. We chatted casually. topic.

Looking at his face that looked a bit like Sophie, I almost let down my guard, but Noelle's arrival eased the awkward atmosphere.

After that, I felt a little dangerous, so I asked Haka to guard the door, and I vented my desires alone late at night... Then I pretended to be a serious queen. I should not be so lustful originally. Why is this happening?

Two people came to mind, one was Rebekah...the other was Fami.

While placing all the blame on the two of them, he was blushing with embarrassment because of his own changes.

But after a while, I found that I had no time to worry about this. This time I was still very seasick. I didn’t feel it at first. When I couldn’t see the land, I already stepped on the deck and felt dizzy. , from time to time there will be some monsters jumping on the boat. Fortunately, everyone on the boat has fighting ability.

After the battle, Noelle came to take care of me.

Every time I see his face, I still think of that black-haired boy.

If he stays with Aileen, he can better take care of her. A girl who can no longer rely on her sister may collapse and be forced to wander because she cannot stay in her own country. But not everyone has such luck as me. , accept the power of the fire elves, and meet companions who are willing to take care of themselves.

As far as I know, most of the women I come into contact with are forced to become prostitutes or violated during adventures. In this world where order and law are destroyed, such things are not uncommon. Even knights will do it. An act of robbery.

I don’t want Ailian to become a second version of myself, let alone a woman like Chijiu.

But wouldn’t it be okay if Lyles was here to do this?The knight named Lorraine also seemed quite loyal.

Is this really the reason why Fami was left there?I asked myself, but I still can’t deceive myself...

"Chris, are you feeling better?"

"It's okay, I just want to get out of bed and walk..." The hammock makes my skin very uncomfortable, but I feel dizzy when I sit up. Because there is no soft place on the bed, it's uncomfortable to lie down anywhere. God bless me, wait until I come back. I will never take a boat again to the Northern Continent.

"Chris, are you okay?"

As he spoke, Noelle ran up to help me up. His right hand touched my neck and his left hand touched my thigh. Although I understood that the child wanted to pick me up, I felt a sudden discomfort. He gently pushed the boy's hand away.

"I-I'm fine! Thank you, Noelle~"

"Oh...it's okay."

The atmosphere between the two of them was a bit tense, probably because his refusal just now was too unnatural.

It’s not that I want Noel to hug me, but that black-haired boy...I can wrap my hands around his neck like a baby and secretly kiss his cheek.

The boy's blond hair rose slightly as the ship's hull rocked. When I raised my head, I felt a little dizzy again. Then I lay down again, reached out and touched Noel's forehead, showing my signature smile.

"I'm fine...because you're by my side, so I'm fine."

"Well, it's great to be able to help you."

I don’t know why, but I feel that he is in a low mood. Ma Kai said that he did not help at all when he was in the empire, so he blames himself. If he had acted decisively during the trial, the group would not have been captured by Princess Wu. I He could easily escape from Willard's hands, but this is not his responsibility alone. As a leader, he must be the first to bear it...

"Really don't think too much, we won based on the result! I also sent a message to the north... Firmina and the others will understand why we went beyond the scheduled time."

I comforted him, and the young man nodded and said nothing. This seemed to have become a fetter in his heart, even if no one blamed him.I stopped irritating Noelle and looked up from across the cabin.

"Where are we now? Can we see the shore..."

"Not yet. There are several small islands and reefs that look uninhabited and too narrow...not like Irene."

"Okay, let's drop anchor and let's go ashore to collect some fruits and fresh water."

Having been sailing for a month, I need to get some air and feel at ease with the solid ground under my feet.

Putting down the boat, we lowered the anchor 20 ral away from the island. In order to prevent rebellion, I left the Orc Guards behind and put them together with the sword slaves, leaving half of the Sons of Zelshi behind.With Alves, Noelle, Haka and Captain Mackay, I wiped myself, put on some clothes and got off the boat to the island.

"You should wear boots and trousers instead of sandals. My lovely princess, there are a lot of poisonous bugs on the island. If you are bitten in such a small place, I will not be able to save you."

He is now covered in an adventurer-style black one-piece corset, and outside is a long coat that exposes all the skin from the thighs. Although it is a little exposed, it is very convenient to move.Because I was treading sand, I was barefoot and wore only sandals I bought at a street stall in the Empire.

His crow mouth still makes people frown, but what he said is quite good. If I were just an ordinary girl, I would follow his advice and go back and change my clothes.

"I'm Kris of Fire, so it doesn't matter."

After saying that, I led the way into the jungle. Noelle was carrying the Holy Sword on his back. He has become more cautious and decisive since the incident in the Empire. The cloth covering the Holy Sword has long been removed, although he is still not a complete brave man. But now he is also the unstoppable strongest among us.

When a giant ape appeared in the jungle, Noelle cut it into two pieces with just one sword strike.

Even Alvis, who was holding the Sword of the Phantom God, was amazed by the clean and neat movements.

I touched the giant ape that was cut open. This guy was as tall as a building, and his muscles were as hard as rock. The holy sword was able to cut it apart in one go. I could also understand a little bit why Noelle had always been merciful before. .

Although the Phantom God is said to be the strongest, is there still a certain distance between him and the Hero?He must have been thinking about it in his head.As Ma Kai said, there were indeed a lot of small snakes and poisonous insects in the jungle. I hated bugs very much and I transformed. A whirlpool of flames wrapped around my body, and all bugs that came close were burned to ashes.

"Don't burn the whole jungle." Ma Kai reminded me, it doesn't matter if it is burned in such a deserted place.

We continued to explore forward. The island was just a little bit bigger. We could already see the edge as soon as we walked on it. The terrain on one side was so low that we didn’t even need to climb over the west peak. However, it would be too much to go back like this. It was boring, so we deliberately climbed up the mountain, and sure enough we found some fruit trees.

Haka, who was accompanying him, picked some fruits. The orcs' excellent sense of smell can determine whether the fruits are edible or poisonous. By the way, there is a spring on the mountain, which is really a treasure.

"It seems that the fresh water originally reserved can be filled up in one go." Noelle was very happy.

"But it will be difficult to transport it back. The terrain here is very steep, and it is not easy to go up and down."

Alves seemed to sense the difficulty.

"In this case, why not rest on this island for two days and slowly stock up on supplies."

I made a compromise proposal.

"It's a good way..." Captain Ma Kai agreed.

"Then, you go back first~"

"What about you, Her Majesty the Queen?" Haka asked, who had been silent all this time. He had suffered a lot of grievances during this period, but it seemed that he had learned how to tolerate it.

"I stayed on the boat for almost a month just wiping myself with some water that was almost smelly... I needed a shower."

"Then, I will keep you safe."
