People are at the border, but they become the incarnation of the sun

Marennia frowned slightly.

She felt very unfamiliar with these two names.

"It's normal for you to be so confused. Mongert and Mung are twins, just like you and Michaela, and he's the younger brother of [Gold] Godwin."

"Just because they are the sons of evil, they were imprisoned by Marika in the sewers of the royal city, living in fear and darkness. It is also because of this that most people in the world, including those within the Golden Dynasty, are unaware of the existence of these two brothers."

"But my brother, Mungat, remained steadfast in his faith and decided to uphold the Golden Rule. After Marika disappeared and the Golden Rule was broken, he stepped forward to lead and protect the Royal City of Rodel."

"You should have seen his incarnation. It was Markit, the [Evil Omen Demon] who ambushed General Latarn and defeated him during the Battle of Rodel."

Having said that, Marennia did have some impression.

During that war, Latan, known as General Starbreaker, was defeated by a Son of Evil Omen wearing a tattered cloak. That Son of Evil Omen indeed called himself Markit.

But what does all this have to do with Monger?

"As for Mung, unlike his brother Mungat, Mung chose other external gods and threw himself into the arms of the Mother of Truth, hoping to establish a new dynasty."

"And to establish a new dynasty, one must naturally abide by the system of one god and one king in the border area, so he set his sights on the god-man."

"At that time, there were three God-men: you, Rani, and Michaela. But Rani abandoned her body, gave up her God-men status, and disappeared. No one has ever found her whereabouts."

"Your strength is obvious to all. You are not someone Monger can easily provoke."

"Plus, Monger has his own little quirks. Michaela is the closest person to Marika, and he's always been very eager for her, so..."

"So, Monger chose to take my brother away while I was away..."

Marenya's eyes slowly narrowed into a dangerous arc.

Originally, she shouldn't have believed these words, because according to her understanding, the Faded People were a group of people who could be said to be completely untrustworthy.

They will resort to all kinds of despicable and dirty means such as cheating, stealing, etc.

What's more, this person was the 'friend' who betrayed her during the Shattered War.

How could she judge whether the man in front of her was trying to trick her?

But everything the other party said was indeed true. The evil-omen child born to a member of the royal family would indeed be locked in the sewer by his mother. She knew this very well.

This is to protect the children of evil omens from suffering and having their hard corners forcibly cut off.

You know, it is difficult for the Son of Evil Omen to survive if his hard horns are cut off, and even if he survives, he will be exiled to the border and become the lowest-ranking soldier in the army.

And this point about the divine man is indeed true and fits the situation at the time.

Therefore, if the man in front of her really went to great lengths to make up such a story to deceive her, she might as well verify it before making a decision.

Having figured everything out, she suddenly got off the bed, picked up the sword placed beside her, and immediately prepared to attack Mung.

But he stopped him.

Swah——

The moment her arm was pulled, Marennia drew her sword and put the sword of the Knight of Corruption against his neck. Any slight movement would surely result in his head falling off.

"...Don't stop me, or I will defeat you even at the cost of my life."

"Well, don't be so impatient. Look at yourself now. You're not even wearing any clothes. Where are you going? So, listen to me, okay?"

He didn't take Marennia's threats seriously at all.

With his current strength, he really doesn't need to be afraid of this kind of ordinary iron sword.

Marlenya also understood this, and after weighing the pros and cons with his words, she put away the sword, slowly walked to the table, pulled out a chair and sat down, and placed the knight's sword on the table.

He didn't care at all about whether he was naked or not.

As expected of a noble Valkyrie, she is a very open and honest person.

Since the other party didn't care about this, he naturally didn't care either, and sat opposite Marennia openly.

"Listen to me, Marennia. Mung was actually conquered long ago. He was killed by members of the Sun Cult. Your brother, Michaela, came here after I healed you. He helped you grow your new limbs using the Law of Plenty."

"Do you think I still have the power to regenerate someone's broken arm? Just helping you heal the Crimson Corruption has exhausted me enough."

There was not a trace of falsehood in what he said.

After all, no matter how you restrain it, Scarlet Corruption is the law of the gods. Using the law to fight against the law will naturally consume a lot of energy.

Although, what he said is a bit exaggerated.

"...You mean, brother... was here...?"

Marennia looked a little surprised, but not that surprised.

Then he slowly lowered his head and fell into silence, staring blankly at his smooth arms for a long time without saying a word.

And her expression was indeed very complicated.

But more of it is confusion.

"Oh my, what an unexpected reaction." Reinhardt said in surprise: "I thought you would impulsively ask me about Michaela's whereabouts."

"......"

Marlenya still lowered her head silently, her hair blocking her eyes. No one knew what her expression was or what she was thinking.

"Well, it's okay to tell you. Before he left, Michaela claimed that he was now at the Rhea Lukalia Magic Academy. If you want to go see him, you can come with me. I also need to go back to the academy."

Reinhardt drank his tea quietly, waiting for Marlenya's reply.

However, the answer that came was an unexpected one.

"...No need."

This answer is enough to make almost everyone drop their jaw.

The extremely brother-obsessed Marlennia actually refused to meet Michaela after learning her whereabouts.

What on earth did Malenia figure out in this short period of time?

239. The Lost Mountains of Lienia (4.6K)

After staying at the sacred tree for a few days, the day finally arrived for them to leave.

Just like when they came, not much changed when they left, with Ashmi and Melina still accompanying them.

The woman, Marennia, still did not change her mind and chose to stay at the Holy Tree to take care of all delayed matters, saying that she would visit soon.

To meet her brother Michaela.

Millicent chose to stay in the Holy Tree, intending to continue learning from Finlay, Loretta and Marenia and hone her skills.

However, the promise made to him before leaving shocked everyone present, and their eyes were filled with confusion, shock, disbelief and other emotions.

No one would have thought that the daughter acknowledged by Marennia herself would choose to become someone else's sharp edge.

Among all these people, only Fenlei had known about this for a long time, but even so, he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard it.

This persistence is indeed the same as Lady Marenia's.

However, when she looked at Malenia, Malenia had already turned and left, returning to the pure white city of Albion on the sacred tree, which was longed for and redeemed by all the Sons of Platinum.

As for the imprisoned Letina, she was naturally released.

When they met, he found that Letina had changed a lot. She was more stable than before, and the tenderness in her eyes when she looked at him was not hidden at all.

"...My wait was not in vain, Rhine, you finally came to pick me up."

Letina said this.

This tenderness caught Ashmi's attention, and she cast a curious look at him, making him feel a little embarrassed.

Until now, he still doesn't know how to respond to Letina's feelings.

For now, we can only talk about it later.

-------------------------------------

The wind and snow on the Huasheng Snowfield were still as strong as ever, and the cold fog was everywhere. The sky of Otina in Yidian Town was still covered by dark clouds, and fine snowflakes were slowly falling.

Since the Michaela Holy Tree exists independently at the border and is not under the jurisdiction of the Golden Tree, they can only use the blessed teleportation by leaving the Holy Tree through the portal.

He also completely understood this so-called blessing transmission. It was nothing more than that all places that the roots of the golden tree could reach could be used as blessing transmission points, and people could reach the place they wanted to go through the tree veins.

It's really convenient.

"My king..."

Suddenly, a slightly low and hoarse female voice sounded in my ears.

This familiar name, and this familiar voice...

It's Lani.

At the same time, the Rani doll, which seemed to have lost its soul, was once again endowed with color and glow, gradually waking up from its slumber, and appeared on his shoulder after a long absence.

"Long time no see, Lani."

"...Well, long time no see, my dear king."

Lani is still the same Lani. Her tone sounds cold, but her words inadvertently reveal a hint of longing.

"...It seems that you have already dealt with the matter at the Holy Tree."

"Well, it was a close call."

Reinhardt nodded in response, but immediately discovered a problem.

"Um...Rani, can you tell me how you knew I had resolved the issue with the Sacred Tree?"

Especially the tone just now, which was not a question but an affirmation.

He was confused.

But Lani's answer made him break out in a cold sweat.

"...through the puppet, I can sense everything you do."

Lani was very honest and had nothing to hide, or rather, she never wanted to hide anything from anyone.

But this answer made the corners of his mouth twitch, "In other words... you know everything I did at the Holy Tree?"

"Well, I must say, my king, everything you did at the Sacred Tree was excellent. Everything was handled perfectly."

Lani praised generously.

But the more this happened, the more panicked he became. With a nervous heart, he tentatively asked, "So... you also know about Michaela's situation?"

"Ah."

"...Then you're not angry?"

His question made Lani a little confused. "...My king, why do you ask this? Why should I be angry?"

As he spoke, a small blue hand reached out and quietly placed it on the side of his face, gently caressing it. "...You are my only king, my Dark Moon partner. I will unconditionally support you in everything you do."

"And Kalia will always be your strong support."

To be honest, it was a bit unexpected for him that Lani would say that.

Obviously, in the past, Lani was the kind of person who was full of dignity and a little bit arrogant, and she always said things like "shame on Witch Lani".

It looks cute and easy to understand.

However, this time it was different from the past, it was unusually gentle.

I was touched, but also a little worried.

Did something happen to Lani in the starry sky?

At this point, Lani added: "...A long time ago, Michaela found me and told me about the deal between you and him.

I have promised him that Kalia will provide him and Marenia with asylum."

"Y-yeah?"

I didn't expect Michaela to be so thoughtful and had already made arrangements with Lani in advance...

No, no, no, no.

Judging from Lani's tone, this incident must have happened a long time ago, and at that time, Lani and I must not have become partners yet.

If that's the case, then Michaela already knew that she wanted to pursue Lani?
