Chris's Faith of Fire

The person who said this was a woman with a charming voice. She seemed to be suspended in mid-air, but she came to Ladia in an instant.

Ladia's breath seemed to freeze into ice in an instant.

what happened?Can't move, why?

Unlike the crying just now, Ladia was really about to cry this time.

The woman flew in front of her, stretched out her slender fingers and touched the princess's face.

"Oh my, she is such a little beauty, with such a brave face and silver-white hair. Your Majesty, can you spare her life and make her a pet for me?"

It's not that I can't move because my body is tense, but I really can't move even with all my strength!

No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't move even a little bit. This overwhelming magic power was almost crushing me to death.

The long sword that would have been pulled out subconsciously now seemed to be stuck in its sheath.

The difference in strength is too big.

Just like the giant and the ant...even the other party didn't take him seriously at all.

"Wait, Lilim, there's no need for that. Our attack is about to begin... This girl seems to be the princess of this country, and the subconscious in my body seems to want to let her live. Let her go, the attack is about to begin anyway, All the people in the city will give him a fair death."

The king's voice sounded again, and Lilim nodded and stepped back slightly.

The pressure just now is a little relieved.

That guy was even scarier, the guy sitting there who looked so much like his father.

But he's definitely not.

Seizing this opportunity, she quickly turned around.

Unexpectedly, he was too anxious and staggered back two steps and fell to the ground, his armor stained with blood and dust.

Ladia got up ugly and rolled away from here.

"Run away~~ Haha, run quickly, little white cat!"

The laughing demon raised his voice and shouted.

No matter how far I ran, Lilim's voice still echoed behind me.

For the fleeing Latiya, this is just the beginning of fate.

Chapter 41 41. Intertwined fates——1

Diplomacy failed, and the relationship with the Frederick family changed from 0 to -50.

These words seemed to pop up in my head.

This is the outcome of this incident, which can be said to be the worst outcome...

No, it’s a good ending before he’s arrested and placed under house arrest.

How could this happen and how should I reply to Ladiya.

I clenched my fists, and my nails pressed hard into my palms through the white gloves, causing me pain.

The carriage made a rattling sound as it ran on the road, and occasionally it would shake twice, making people's heads dizzy.

"Sophie, what should I do?"

I lowered my head and said silently, feeling extremely dizzy and feeling like I would vomit at any moment, but my heart was made even more uncomfortable by the pressure of this diplomatic failure.

Sophie shook her head and raised her cherry-colored lips hesitantly.

"Your Highness...you suddenly asked me, I also..."

"Forget it, I shouldn't have asked you."

The disappointment in her tone made her look away.

I continued to lower my head and worry about what had just happened.

The Frederick family is located to the north of the Leerbar family. The ancestor of its head, Richard Xingyao, Frederick was a vassal of Duke Leerbar. I only heard about this from my sister.

The death of the old master gave my sister a glimmer of hope. She seemed to be blunt in that letter, saying that if young Mr. Richat could help the Wang family, we would provide assistance when we had a falling out with Duke Lylebar in the future. He promised to give him part of the fiefdom of Leerbar as a reward.

Since the letter was sealed with wax and asked to be delivered directly to Lord Richat, I naturally didn't read it. My sister only said some kind words to me and sent me on my way, depending on the situation.

Unexpectedly, His Excellency Richat turned pale immediately after seeing the letter, and asked me sharply about the contents of the letter.

"Your Highness Crystal, are the Wang family questioning my loyalty?"

"Eh? No...that's not it. What did sister write on that?"

"Is this what Your Highness Ladia meant? It's clearly signed by His Majesty. That rumor is true..."

"Ah... bad..."

At that time, I spilled the beans and I quickly covered my mouth.

That Latiya is actually in power now is something that cannot be said. I am really loudmouthed.

Seeing my lame reaction, Chat felt that his suspicion had been completely verified. He nodded slightly and frowned. The bulging veins on his temples could be clearly seen within five steps. .

The awkward atmosphere suddenly dropped by eight degrees, and I didn’t know how to respond to him.

"Please reply to Your Highness Ladia. If she plans to continue to have her own way, we will never sit idly by. Duke Lebal is a very good person. If there is a sycophant who wants to kill him, even if it is an order from the royal family, I will Resist to the end!”

"No, you misunderstood! We definitely didn't mean that."

When I hurriedly rushed towards his back, the guard had already blocked me from the door with a spear.

"Your Highness, please leave quickly, lest Sir Frederick changes."

"Um... um."

That's right. Each of Richat's soldiers clenched their weapons. We were in a tense atmosphere. Of course, we couldn't think too much at that time. I always regretted whether if I had moved my lips a little at that time, it would have been possible. He calmed down a bit.

But at that time, even I was so nervous that it felt like my heart was going to jump out of my mouth...my mind was completely blank.

The first time I went to a nobleman's castle I wasn't even treated to a dinner.

"Your Highness..."

Sophie's voice dragged me out of my memories.

"what happened?"

"Your Highness may still care about what happened before. This is not your fault. Please don't blame yourself too much."

She grabbed her wrist, looking uneasy.

"You didn't see what happened. I really thought I was going to be stabbed to death in that hall."

The air was almost freezing, and every movement of the hands of the big clock seemed to be connected to my heart.

"Even so... I have also heard about this from the knights. Lord Richat is still young and should calm down soon."

"can you?"

"Well, it will definitely happen. Your Highness Ladia understands the relationship between nobles very well. She will not let you do dangerous things easily."

I don't think so, I'm getting tired of Sophie's comfort.

Before, Ladia had tactfully expressed her concern that I would become a contender for the throne.

She didn't tell me the content of the letter, and at the same time, she sent me to such a dangerous family. It's not an exaggeration to understand that she wanted to use Richat's hand to imprison me. In this case, she would have just reason to get rid of the Vladik family.

If I go back and tell her that the mission has not been completed and I have left a bad impression on Lord Richat...will I also end up under house arrest?

Although it was indeed a mistake, a cautious person like my sister must have had ulterior motives when she wrote that letter.

I'm obviously not interested in the throne, so why doesn't she understand?

I can't tell Sophie about this...

The axle of the axle rotates like a bone, and it would be fine if it falls apart at some point.

No, don't do it because it will hurt your butt.

I opened the carriage curtain.

"parking!"

The sound of horse hooves became more rapid.

After a while they all stopped.

The deputy captain rode up to the car.

"Your Highness Crystal, do you have any orders?"

"Where have we been?"

After hearing my question, the deputy leader looked back at Fami in the distance. He took out the map and looked at it before saying a few words to him.

The deputy leader nodded and turned around.

Fami is still a servant and can only do this kind of work. I wish I had known and asked him directly.

But whether it’s out of etiquette or what happened a few days ago, I don’t really want to talk to him directly.

"Your Highness, we have arrived at the Amber River. After crossing the bridge, we will reach the Agat Fortress."

The Amber River is a river below the Lodeculo Saint, and the Fortress Agat is also the front line of the capital. I just passed by it before, but I didn't take a closer look at the surrounding things.

"It's not long before we're away from the capital."

"Yes, we can return to the city within two days."

"Then stay here for a few days. I heard that the fortress city of Agat is also an interesting place."

"But Your Highness! We are still holding the mission, and Your Highness Latiya is waiting for a reply."

"It doesn't matter, the process is surprisingly fast anyway... It's good to rest here."

I never want to go back and accept punishment. Even if there is no punishment, Ladia's words still scare me.

I don’t know what the outcome will be, I feel like the days of peace are gone forever.

This matter has been decided since the day when my father locked himself in the study.

By invisible fate...

"If it is His Highness's order."

The deputy captain bent down and saluted.

I watched the people's horses' hooves outside the window begin to move forward, and I waited for my carriage to move forward again.

Speaking of which, this person is really a public face. Ladia obviously told me that he is very strong, and even if five people go together, he will not be his opponent, but I didn't see it at all.

Before putting down the curtain, I saw him and Fami talking about something.

Feeling good.

Fami's abilities will probably improve under the guidance of such a powerful person.

I hope he can grow up soon, and by then others won't object to making him a knight.

Come on, Fami...

I blinked and lowered the carriage curtain.

◆ ◇

The fortress city of Agat.

Just like his name, the name alone here gives an impression of indestructibility.

Agat is located in the wilderness, more than ten miles away from the forest to the north.It was built on a high flat-topped mountain, overlooking the surrounding scenery. There was only one road leading down the mountain. The king built barriers on the towers of the fortress and fixed forts that could only be used by magicians. There were sufficient reserves inside, even if Even if the demons attack in groups, it is difficult to break through.

It has experienced sieges and wars here for thousands of years, and it is impregnable.

Driving a carriage through this city is a little inconvenient, so in the past we just passed through without stopping.

"Your Highness, please get on the horse."

"No, let Sophie sit on your horse. I'll ride Fami's, which is a little thinner."

I politely declined the deputy leader's kindness, took Fami's hand, and rode his brown mount.

Fami silently led the horse and walked ahead. This situation didn't look very easy to talk to.
