As a tyrant, it's reasonable for me to snatch the heroine away

"What trouble are you in?"

Lilina seemed to have noticed something as well.

But what happens at this juncture?

Although Chenxing did make her very unhappy, she and he now belonged to a "community of interests" anyway.

If anything happened to Morning Star, not only would there be no other way to remove the curse of the armor for a while, but the Holy Kingdom would probably also take certain actions.

After all, it was precisely because of the Grullit Kingdom and the war on Blood Moon Island that the Holy Kingdom was temporarily unable to spare the time to deal with its own affairs.

If anything unexpected happens in the Kingdom of Grullit, the outcome is predictable.

But compared to Lilina's desire to help, Clotia naturally didn't dare to trust her.

If His Highness's plan goes awry because of her mistake...

Clotia would never allow that to happen!

What's more, even if Lilina seems to have a good relationship with His Highness, he is still a member of the Holy Church after all.

Who can guarantee that the other party doesn’t have any other thoughts?

"I...I'd better wait for His Highness to come back. I should be able to make it in time."

Clotia didn't want to have too much relationship with Lilina.

I had finally rescued the saint, and I had received His Highness's grace and forgiveness so many times. How could I do that again?

Even if getting close just might cause misunderstanding...

But this misunderstanding is not a good thing for my current situation.

A "surrendered soldier" from other countries. Even if Your Highness is willing to believe me, what about others?

I can't let His Highness be distracted from dealing with such matters because of me. I need to maintain good relations with other colleagues.

"Don't you have those special rings for communication?"

Lilina could see this lack of trust, but she didn't take it to heart.

On the contrary, if the other party believed her directly, she would feel that Chenxing's subordinate was a little bit bad.

"I just...I just can't contact His Highness for the time being."

Clotia was also very cautious and did not want to reveal any information to the other party.

This behavior also made Lilina curious.

What strengths does this Morning Star have that could make someone who was once so loyal to the Dawn Kingdom follow it so wholeheartedly?

If she couldn't tell the difference, Lilina would even suspect whether Morning Star had some brainwashing ability.

but.......

As if she had thought of something, the corners of Lilina's mouth rose slightly.

Maybe she had no way to counter Chen Xing's "humiliation", but letting the other party embarrass herself a little would at least make her mood less bad.

Besides, isn’t this also a worry that something might go wrong with Morning Star’s plan?

"If you're really in a hurry, you can look for him in my room. He said he would come to me today to discuss something."

"your room?"

"That's right. You guys arranged the room for me anyway. You don't have to worry about whether the place you arranged is dangerous for you, right?"

Lilina said, her smile growing wider.

Chapter 42 As long as the Queen doesn't hate it

"So... the heir of the Cat Tail Clan wants to invite Agnes to the Cat Tail Clan's banquet, right?"

In Lilina's room, Morning Star spoke softly, trying his best to ease the awkward atmosphere in the room.

After all, that scene just now...

So embarrassing!

Maybe it's more than just embarrassment.

Perhaps because of his demon bloodline, he didn't feel too embarrassed, but looking at the state of Clotia in front of him...

"The Cat Tail Tribe? I heard from Golgolo that their current heir is the first female heir to the entire Houndstooth High Collar."

Agnes put on her clothes and sat back in Morning Star's arms, letting her long red hair hang loose.

It’s not that she likes this way of sitting, but because of what happened just now, as the red-haired demon, she also felt a little limp in her body.

Originally, only Lord Morningstar and Lilina had the key to the room.

If Lilina dared to come in again, she would naturally continue to ignore her.

Even when Clotilda came in, she had no intention of stopping, but...

After all, it was His Highness's instruction, so it wouldn't be too late to continue later.

"I'm sorry... Queen Agnes! I didn't know you and His Highness were...at...that..."

Clotia knelt on one knee, her face already flushed red.

She could never have imagined that such a situation would occur in the room.

And there was only a slight breathing sound and a strange... knocking sound outside the door?

Clotia originally thought that His Highness the Morning Star was doing something after returning, but she didn't expect that he was really doing something.

It's so disrespectful to come across something like this!

Of course, in addition to disrespect, there is also a very strange feeling, which is the same feeling as when I was in the Dragon Blood Pool.

Even Clotia couldn't help but recall what happened that day, the joy of being almost one with His Highness.

"It's okay. Business is more important. Besides, it's not you who made the mistake. And as a subordinate, you have done your duty so diligently. As a king, I should reward you."

Chenxing smiled but didn't take it to heart.

Besides me, Lilina is the only one who has the key to this room.

Why was Clotia able to open the door and come in? Wasn't the result obvious?

I didn't expect that such a bad taste would be found in such a grand cathedral trial.

"No, no, no! Your Highness has been very merciful by not blaming Clotia. How can Clotia still have the nerve to... ask for a reward or something..."

"Rewards and punishments are clear, and..."

Chenxing looked at Clotia who kept her head down and dared not look up.

Speaking of that special position in Kagura Hall, I haven't tried it yet, so I wonder if there is anything different about it.

According to the original settings of the mod, special followers who hold special positions will unlock various special dialogues.

From asking the supervisor to pick someone who meets certain requirements to serve, to arranging someone to manage the residence and so on.

But reality is different from games after all.

This kind of conversation can be done even without this job function.

What Morningstar really wanted to experiment with was whether this kind of appointment would bring about any changes in the people who served as special followers.

Whether it is a change in strength or a change in spirit.

It can have some other functions.

If it's just a simple unlock command or something, it's better to ignore this function.

Thinking of this, Chenxing also glanced at Clotia's specific attributes.

Only etiquette skills and combat skills reached exactly 90 points.

After all, posture techniques and special skills do require some relevant practice.

If the job is useful, maybe I should really consider this kind of training, right?......

For some reason, Chenxing always felt that something was increasingly wrong with him as a king.

"Since you came to my place, I haven't assigned you any duties yet, right?"

"Yes... that's right, but Clotia won't care at all. Just follow your Highness's arrangements!"

Clotia said this, feeling a little flustered.

In fact, she had always been looking forward to the day when His Highness would assign her a position and a job.

Just like Presil, who also came from the Kingdom of Dawn like herself.

But the arrangement of their duties actually makes them feel that they are truly integrating here, into His Highness's camp, and into this new kingdom.

What's more, isn't this an opportunity to repay His Highness for his kindness?

only.......

For so long, Clotia has only been doing some work like delivering messages.

It's as if everyone still has some reservations and wariness towards this former Dawnbreaker.

Clotia knew that His Highness was definitely not that kind of person, but...

Whenever I feel the gazes of others around His Highness looking at me, I still feel uncomfortable.

There will also be a tingling feeling inside.

But even so, Clotia knew that as a subordinate and a subject, she could never seek anything from the king.

Such behavior is totally disrespectful to the king and to loyalty!

Clotia would never allow herself to do that.

At this moment, the "thing" I had been thinking about finally appeared before my eyes, but under this circumstance.

The position that His Highness wants to assign to me, will it be......

After all, from what she just said, it seems that the Queen cannot satisfy Your Highness's illusion.

Of course, it’s not that Clotia couldn’t accept this kind of position.

Especially after having a heart-to-heart talk with Maria, she became more certain that her choice was correct and bright.

She is also willing to sacrifice everything for this country and for His Majesty the Morning Star, the king before her, even if it means...

But Clotia didn't want this, or to be more precise, she didn't want it to be just like this.

It was just like the "false accusations" made by others against me in the Dawn Kingdom.

Just be a vase, relying only on the beautiful appearance and this body.

Clotia can do more. After being strengthened by the Dragon Blood Pool, she is confident that she can do things that she never could do or even dared to think about before.

but.......

"If...if it is arranged by Your Highness, I...I am willing to accept it!"

There was a gleam of gloom in Clotia's eyes, but she still made a decision.

We cannot let His Highness down, even if it’s something like that.

Even if I can't reach the level of Queen Agnes.

But even if it is such a thing, it is His Highness's trust in me, even if I may not be able to have any contact with the field in the future...

"Don't be too nervous. The work I'm going to assign to you is actually very simple. I know you are also capable of taking on more complicated work, but you are still in the dog tooth high collar after all. I will arrange it after we return."

Chenxing's words also made Clotia more certain of her guess.

It’s a very simple job, what else could it be?

But the second half of His Highness's words meant that as long as he performed well in this job, he could return to the palace and...

Thinking of this, Clotia's originally dim eyes became firm again.

Just treat it as a test from His Highness!

"As long as the Queen doesn't mind, I can be with her! So shall we start right now, Your Highness?"
