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

Lilina could also understand the other party's concerns and worries.

Just like herself, she almost never mentioned the nightmare to people around her.

I'm not only afraid that the look in his eyes that seemed to be looking at a "bug" would appear again, I'm also afraid...that I'll dream about what happened in the past again.

"I must have made a mistake. You look a lot like one of my friends."

Lilina shook her head and took back what she was about to say.

How can you reveal other people’s scars when you yourself don’t even want to recall the pain you have endured?

Even she knew that with Chenxing's personality, he wouldn't care about such things at all.

But this was someone else's choice, and Lilina knew she had no right to interfere.

This statement naturally made Xila feel a little relieved.

Only Chenxing sat there calmly, taking a sip of the drink that looked like coffee, and the smile on his face became wider and wider.

Do these two people think they are fools? Or are they the kind of male protagonists who are ashamed of themselves?

"So it was just a mistake. What a coincidence..."

Chenxing put down the cup and kept tapping the table with his fingers.

The frequency of the knocking seemed to affect Sheila and Lilina's heartbeats.

One does not want to be exposed, while the other does not want to be exposed too much but also hopes that the other party will not be exposed.

What a great show!

It’s a pity that Chenxing doesn’t like acting.

There was even a little bit of dissatisfaction in my heart.

It wasn’t because of their increasingly “poor” acting skills, nor was it because Xila would lie to him.

But...I'm angry at them for not fighting back!

I’m angry... that they just endure it silently and never even think of resisting or changing!

Let’s not talk about Lilina for now. Xila has been with me for so long, can’t she even figure this out?

“Sheila!!”

Chen Xing slammed the table, and the coffee in the cup splashed out.

The terrifying pressure spread out instantly, and even Lilina felt an unprecedented sense of suffocation.

"Can I regard this as... a betrayal by you as a servant to me as a king?!"

Chapter 6: Being tricked

The sudden questioning made Xila kneel down hurriedly, and the panic in her eyes could no longer be hidden.

No matter how much she deceived herself, she actually understood. How could His Highness not guess it?

But......

Xila really didn't dare to "look back" or tell Chenxing about this.

She also always believed that as a servant, she should solve problems for her master instead of causing trouble.

But now it has come to this, how can we continue to hide it?

"Sheila... Sheila didn't mean that, I just felt..."

"You don't want to dirty my hands, or you don't want me to get involved in this trouble?"

Chenxing took over the conversation and could guess why Xila chose to conceal the truth.

But it's true.

Before this, Chenxing had never fully trusted Xila, nor did he dare to fully trust her.

This would make Xila afraid to speak, which was normal, and Chenxing would naturally not be angry about this.

The reason why Chenxing was unhappy was that he gave Xila a chance, but the other party still chose to go all the way to the end.

Chenxing doesn't want the people around him to be pedantic.

"I...I'm sorry, Your Highness. Please punish me. I won't have any complaints."

Sheila lowered her head, still not wanting to say it out loud.

That’s right, His Highness is indeed very powerful, and his strategy can be said to be top-notch in the world.

But precisely because of this, she could not allow her own selfish desires to cause His Highness or even the entire Grullite Kingdom to be dragged into it.

Now that the Holy Empire is still tied up in the affairs of Blood Moon Island, the Kingdom of Grullit just happens to have the opportunity to slowly absorb the resources of the Forest of Elves and the High Territory of the Dogtooth to strengthen itself.

As long as they proceed step by step, the Kingdom of Grulith will definitely grow to the size of the Holy Kingdom within a year.

But once you are involved in the troubles of the Holy Empire...

It’s not that Xila thinks Morning Star will definitely lose, but facing the church behind the Holy Empire, even if it wins, it will probably be just a miserable victory, or even a miserable victory that cannot be considered a win at all.

At the same time, the road is so tortuous and muddy.

If you are not careful, even the Morning Star will find it "difficult to escape".

But given His Highness's character, once he knew about this, there was no way he would just let it go.

Although he is called a tyrant, he seems so kind and gentle to those around him.

Even at this moment, the thought of death flashed through Sheila's mind.

Naturally, she had already prepared to die for His Highness and for the Kingdom of Grullit.

This way, His Majesty Morning Star will not be in trouble because of me...

"You think... I'm going to lose, right?"

"Xi La didn't mean that. I just thought... Your Highness has better means and methods, and there is no need to endure unnecessary sacrifices."

"Do you know what you mean by saying this?"

Having said that, Chen Xing's expression gradually turned gloomy.

In the final analysis...

I still haven't been able to get rid of this habit, and I will subconsciously "apply" the thinking I had before traveling through time to the people in this world.

Chenxing originally thought that the other party could do what he should do, and it was also the best choice for Xila.

But the facts also proved that Morningstar was indeed wrong.

It's not even just Sheila, but also Lilina, or most of the people Morningstar has met.

Almost everyone in this world is so pedantic, so... feudal and "stupid"!

Morning Star also understood that what really needed to be changed in this world was never, or to be more precise, not just the unification.

And this ideological...unity and transformation!

At least, for the people around him, Chenxing doesn't want them to become like other people in this world.

As a result, in the end... I don’t even have a few people with whom I can have a good communication or just have a simple chat.

"Represents..."

As Sheila spoke, she slowly closed her eyes.

She knew what saying such words meant to her as a personal attendant.

But she had to do this, for the country, for His Highness, and more importantly, to repay the late king for rescuing and adopting her!

"It means that Xila has overstepped her bounds against you, Your Highness. It means that Xila has chosen to betray you. It also means that...according to the laws of the Kingdom of Grullit, Xila should be sentenced to...death!"

Hearing this, Lilina hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of Sheila.

"Morningstar! Calm down! She just... just doesn't want you to take risks for her!!"

Lilina could naturally tell that Sheila was planning to commit suicide.

It’s like when I faced the situation of my loved ones, I chose a similar path.

but......

Xila is different from herself. As the personal attendant of King Morningstar, she still has a chance.

What's more, Chenxing also said that there is a way.

If there really was a way, there would be no need for Xila and I to choose a path that would lead to the end.

After all, who really wants to die if they can live?

Moreover, Lilina couldn't bear to watch a living being, a "survivor" who had experienced the same things as herself, die.

Whether it was the Holy Trial of the Holy Empire or just Lilina herself, no one could accept it!

"Ms. Lilina, this is our Grullite Kingdom's business. As a member of the Holy Church, it's not good for you to interfere, right?"

"Didn't you just say that if you can rescue my family safely, I will join you? In that case, I am also half a member of the Grullite Kingdom, right?"

Lilina didn't think too much about it. The most important thing was to stabilize the situation first.

otherwise......

She really wasn't sure whether Morning Star, who was always decisive in killing and could even wipe out an entire tribe in a rage, would kill Xila directly.

"Half? Ridiculous! Are you insulting the name of the Grullite Kingdom?"

Chenxing snorted coldly, as if he didn't give any face at all, nor would he give any face to Lilina.

"I'm just...metaphorically! Then I'll join in now..."

Lilina was halfway through her words when she suddenly felt something was wrong.

Especially Chen Xing's expression that changed from anger to laughter...

It seems like I have been fooled by this bastard again!

"You said this yourself, my dear Lilina. So...are you willing to believe me and accept my proposal?"

Morning Star asked back with a smile, which also left Lilina speechless.

She could just pretend she didn't say anything and leave.

But precisely because she was Lilina, she would not be willing to do such a thing.

and......

Apart from choosing to believe in Chenxing, she really couldn't think of any other solution. If she went back alone, the outcome would only be the worst BE!

At least this choice of mine can save a life.

Thinking of this, Lilina subconsciously glanced at Sheila and sighed helplessly.

Perhaps he had already agreed to it in his subconscious mind, otherwise he would not have subconsciously said that he was half a citizen of the Grullite Kingdom!

Chapter 7 Your Highness, please help me!

"As long as you don't kill her, it's fine. I don't have a choice anyway, right?"

After she actually agreed, Lilina seemed to feel much better.

Maybe it is really just as Morning Star expressed, since there are other ways and means to solve it, why should we go down one path to the end?

Why...

In fact, even Lilina herself was a little confused.

Faith, belief or even bottom line?

But at least now, it seems that this decision is not wrong, although there is no way to be completely sure until your loved ones are completely safe.

"I never said I wanted to kill her. As my personal attendant, she should be punished, but not sentenced to death. Don't you think it's a bit ridiculous to use the laws of the previous king to punish people today?"

Morning Star waved his hand.
