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

"So, all I want to say is—"

"No matter what choices you make in the future, Your Highness, Lani, or what you become, even if it means I'll be your enemy, I will always be by your side until the end of the world."

"Whenever you need me, even if I'm already dead, I will crawl out of the grave and once again raise my sword to clear away all the difficulties that stand in your way."

"This is the oath I, your knight Reinhard, swear."

"...You're really a weirdo."

Upon hearing this, Lani slowly lowered her head, not knowing what expression to show, but the corners of her mouth that inadvertently raised betrayed her mood at the moment.

That was a smile from her heart, full of happiness, as if the air had become sweet.

"However, I have taken note of your words, Reinhardt... I hope you will not break this oath. Likewise, I will always be waiting for you, awaiting news of your triumphant return and complete victory. May the full moon's light protect you, my loyal and valiant knight."

"It is my honor, Your Highness, Ranie. May Kalia's glory live on forever."

Under the canopy of trees, the two made their own vows.

The golden tree, the obscured stars in the sky, and the full moon floating in the distance witnessed all of this.

However, Reinhardt still had something to ask her.

"By the way, Lani, what are you going to do about Servais?"

As he spoke, Reinhardt took out the bottle of potion from his leather bag and handed it to Lani.

"Just today, Servais did something stupid. He actually tried to get Dolores to take this potion in the Round Table Hall. Are you unaware of the potion's effects, Lani?"

"...Yeah, I know." Lani held the bottle of potion and clenched her hands slightly.

As mentioned before, the bad things that Servais did were no secret in Kalia. Even Lani was well aware of it and hated it very much.

She knew the effect of this bottle of potion very clearly.

It has no effect on gods and powerful demigods, but for other people it is like a deadly poison. After drinking it, their intelligence will be wiped out and they will become puppets.

Out of consideration for her mother and because he was still of some use, she had turned a blind eye to it.

But now...

"...Tell me in detail what Servais is trying to do."

"It's actually very simple. I happened to see Servais in the Round Table Hall trying to get Dolores, a member of the Round Table, to drink the potion, but I stopped him."

"Before that, I met Michaela and Marenia, brother and sister, and Michaela told me that Dolores was his appointed knight."

"If she drinks this, won't Michaela become enemies with us, Kalia?"

"Well... I know that. Michaela told me before that she wanted to travel and visit Kalia."

Lani tried her best to keep her voice calm, but the fingertips holding the potion had already turned white.

She never imagined that the idiot Servais would be so bold as to even think of depriving Michaela of her knighthood.

Is this a challenge to my bottom line?!

"I see... But Servais didn't just do that. When he came back that night, he came to me and told me he wanted me to let Dolores drink this potion..."

"Lani, do you think this guy is crazy?"

Reinhardt's tone was filled with disdain, but when he thought of Lani, he became serious again and asked, "So, I want to ask you, what are you going to do?"

"..."

Lani didn't respond. Instead, she remained silent for a moment before leaving the decision to Reinhardt: "What do you want to do?"

"As for me, I will definitely kill him."

"But if I do that, I'm afraid your dignity in Calia will be damaged, Your Highness, Renae. After all, no matter how rude and foolish that fool Servais is, he is still the magic professor appointed by Lady Renara..."

Reinhardt acted helpless, but Lani saw through his heart at a glance.

"...From what I understand, you wouldn't do anything without confidence. Since you're telling me this, I believe you must have a thorough plan."

"I really can't hide it from you. I do have a plan. It's like this..."

Reinhardt whispered something in her ear.

Lani's expression remained normal, but her brows involuntarily furrowed slightly.

"You...really going to do this?"

"I've already said that I am your knight at all times, Princess Lani. Naturally, I have to help you solve your problems. Things like taking the blame are naturally my duty." Reinhardt said indignantly.

But even with that said, Lani was still a little hesitant, but finally she sighed and compromised.

"Well... In that case, I agree. But you also have to promise me that even if you can't get rid of Servais, you must ensure your own safety. Understand?"

"That's for sure, please rest assured."

"Well, then I'll go back first..."

As she spoke, Lani put on her witch hat again, adjusted her dress slightly, and then turned into a faint blue starlight and disappeared.

Only the bottle of potion that belonged to Servais was left there, which he put back into his leather bag, hoping it might be useful in the future.

To be honest, this matter can't be considered as taking any blame. At least those people in Kalia who know Servais don't have any opinion of him.

It's nothing more than giving those old guys a chance to talk.

But it doesn’t matter. What does it matter what those guys think or say?

It also gave him an excuse to leave Kalia and go for a walk outside.

But what surprised him most was that Lani actually agreed to get rid of Servais.

It seems that this old pervert Servis has a very bad impression on Lani too...

However, when he returned to his room, he found someone in his room.

She was wearing a pure black long dress, with a slender and graceful figure, and long, smooth golden hair hanging down from her tall and straight figure.

"I thought you weren't coming today, Malika."

He didn't care about Marika's feelings at all, walked towards the bed carelessly, and slammed his body heavily onto the soft bed with a thud.

"...You don't want me to come?"

Marika didn't care about his behavior. With a smile on her face, she walked to the bed and sat down. She stretched out her fingers and gently lifted the magician's robe on him.

"It depends on how you interpret it. Honestly, I really want to give myself a break. Doing this every day is a bit malnourished..."

Reinhardt said as he turned over and got out of Marika's fingers.

"...Haha, really? But I don't think he's like what you said."

Marika spoke slowly and gently licked her beautiful red lips, as if hinting at something.

Damn it, I'm so disappointed, it's just an instinctive reaction...

Reinhardt couldn't help but curse inwardly, but what Marika said next made him stunned.

"However, if I hadn't come today, I wouldn't have been able to hear such an interesting conversation between you master and servant."

"?!"

Reinhardt suddenly sat up in bed and demanded, "Did you hear everything?"

But Marika was no longer by the bed. Instead, she was sitting at a table not far away, looking at him with that familiar teasing smile.

"What do you say?"

Marika poured herself a glass of water, but did not drink it. Instead, she put her slender fingers into the glass and lightly touched the water surface.

Then gently slide your slightly moistened fingertips across the rim of the cup, and the crystal clear water droplets will quietly slide down the wall of the cup.

This is actually a very common action, but when Marika does it, it is very seductive, as if she is tempting him.

However, after so many days of tempering, he was naturally immune to it. He took a deep breath and asked, "Since you have heard it, I also have a question for you."

"...Are you really determined to sacrifice Godwin?"

"Do I have any other options? Reinhardt, I once told you that even if I don't do it, my child Godwin still won't be saved. So why don't you use him for my benefit?"

Marika spoke quietly, but her golden eyes no longer held that unique charm, but were filled with determination and resoluteness.

"Well, you really are a vicious mother. You even want to squeeze the value out of your own child. You are worthy of being you..."

After the recent contact, he finally understood why Godwin was so favored by various forces.

Compared to the cold-blooded King Elden, Godwin is indeed a good man. He always thinks about his friends and subordinates, just like an upright knight.

In the time of King Arthur, Arthur would probably have to abdicate and let him become king and lead the Knights of the Round Table.

"...I'll take your words as a compliment, Reinhardt. Aren't you also a loyal yet wicked knight?"

"Yeah, I'm also a knight with a bad temper... Haha, fuck." Reinhardt smiled indifferently.

If Lani is the person he knows best, then the person who knows him best is not Lani, but Marika.

After the recent in-depth and easy-to-understand communication, Malika has become the person who knows him best and knows many of his secrets, including his XP.

"And I, alone, leave only my dreams, which spread their wings at your feet."

"Tread lightly, for you are treading on the wings of my dreams."

"...Really? Then do you want to step on the wings of my dreams, Reinhardt?"

In this short period of time, Marika suddenly appeared beside the bed and whispered in his ear.

She pointed her fingers at his chest and pushed slightly, causing his body to fall uncontrollably onto the bed.

"What the hell, what do you want to do? Hand in your prayers for today first!"

The completely different style from the past made Reinhardt a little panicked. He felt that this woman seemed to be trying to get something for free!

"...There are no more. Except for the Black Flame's divine skin prayer, all other prayers related to magic are already in your hands."

As she spoke, Marika slowly climbed onto the bed, straddled it, and looked down at him with her proud breasts.

"So, according to what you said, I want to get whore for free today."

95. Feiya: My destiny is with you (5.5K)

In the morning, the brilliance of the golden tree blooms and shines into the room through the window along with the quiet morning breeze.

"It's already...dawn?"

Reinhardt's voice was a little hoarse, and the dazzling light woke him up from his sleep. While rubbing his sleepy eyes, he sat up from the bed and subconsciously reached towards the bed next to him.

But it came up empty.

The faint scent and body temperature of Marika still lingered on the empty seat.

"...Gone?" Reinhardt muttered to himself in a calm voice.

After experiencing this so many times, he is used to it.

Every day Marika would get up earlier than him and leave, as if nothing had happened, with only the lingering scent in the air proving that she had been there.

But speaking of it, last night was really crazy. In this game of Landlord, both he and Marika seemed to have exhausted all their courage and wisdom.

They fought from dusk till dawn without stopping, like emotionless fighting machines, constantly breaking through their limits and trying to defeat the opponent.

From the table to the window, to the balcony and then to the carpet, almost everywhere in the room was left with the remnants of their battle.

Therefore, the whole room is now very fierce, as if a storm is passing through.

The furniture was placed there in a crooked manner, the chairs were thrown in front of the door to block it, and the windows were wide open, swaying from side to side in the wind.

But the ending was still pretty good, as it was the first time he had defeated this noble deity.

"Since you're up so early, let's go have breakfast..."

I glanced at the sky outside and felt that it was still early, but when I turned around, I saw someone sitting at the table.

"Did you sleep well, Reinhardt?" The person at the table suddenly greeted him.

"...You haven't left yet, Marika."

"You really don't like me staying here?"

Marika was sitting at the table, looking at him with a smile on her face. There was still a blush on her fair face. Her legs were pried together, revealing her long, beautiful legs under her dark skirt.
