Act 343 Destiny

Levin Ornesson suddenly fell silent.

He felt a warm current trickling through his heart. He suddenly took his little maid's hand and held it tightly.

"I will see long darkness, Adesha, so that you can always be by my side and be my eyes."

"Your Highness..."

The carriage was filled with silent warmth, as well as plans and hopes for the future. But the good times are always so short. Suddenly, the carriage stopped.

"Your Highness, there was a small accident ahead." The voice of the knight captain came from outside the carriage.

"What's wrong?"

"It seems that a noble gentleman's carriage has broken down. Should we stop and wait for them to take care of it first?"

Levin Onessen suddenly felt a flash of uneasiness in his heart.

"No, don't stop, Captain Knight, let the convoy continue to move forward-"

"Okay, Your Highness."

In the darkness, the knight's voice suddenly turned into a sharp scream, and then the eldest son Wang felt the whole carriage shake violently, as if the world was overturned. In the chaos, he heard people's screams, Ed. Sha's panicked shouts, the roars of the soldiers, and the sounds of weapons clashing.

But these sounds seemed to gradually fade away, and Levin Onessen felt a stab of pain in his chest, and a hot feeling spread instantly.

In the end, all that was left in his ears was Adesha's panicked, low cry.

In the darkness, he groped weakly and stretched out his hand in that direction, holding his maid's hand: "Hold my hand, Adesha, I feel so uncomfortable that I almost can't breathe..."

"Your Highness, I am here, and Adesha is here." Adesha shouted in panic.

Levin suddenly laughed.

He actually felt a ray of light in the darkness, and in the shadow of longing, he saw Adesha's face covered with blood.

Her mother didn't lie to her, Adesha was beautiful.

He opened his palm and stuffed something cold into the maid's hand.

"...Be my eyes. Adesha, take a good look at this world and Eruin's future for me..."

"Your Highness——!"

Adessa's screams gradually faded away from him.

The whole world seemed to be leaving him, and he seemed to see many things in the darkness. His father, the cowardly king Eruin, and his mother. The woman who plays conspiracy and power behind the scenes.

Then there was everything that passed, but it all faded away.

He seemed to see an Eruin he had never seen before. The kingdom sank in darkness, burned in flames, and the creatures cried and struggled in pain. Everything was destroyed, whether it was hope or the way forward.

In the faint sense of loss, the last prince of the Sifah family seemed to feel that he had missed a line of destiny that did not exist.

Several hundred meters above the ground, two silver eyes were looking at this scene coldly and emotionlessly.

"I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince is quite famous. It's a pity that fate has a twist. What starts as a tragedy always ends in tragedy, and he never got the coveted throne." A voice said.

"The sorrow of mortals," another voice replied: "Those short-lived things are all elusive and out of reach. This is the greatest tragedy of a person who cannot control his own destiny, so he died."

On the road leading to Pelican Castle from Ampelsel.

The knights were in a mess, fighting with the pagans who suddenly appeared. The inconspicuous carriage in the center of the convoy was overturned on the ground and burning.

This scene seems like a farce, it is full of black humor from beginning to end, but for different people. It has a different meaning.

But no matter what, from this day on, Eruin's history changed forever.

…

Archduke Viero sat down in his chair a little tiredly.

Not long ago he sent away the last group of guests. These days he has to deal with all kinds of people.

Some of these people were known to him, some were unknown to him, and some were not dangerous at all. But some of them made him shudder.

Fortunately it's all over.

He felt a deep sense of powerlessness welling up from deep within his heart. It was a state entangled with fatigue, restlessness and tension. It seemed to wrap around him like a viscous liquid, making him feel unable to breathe.

He regretted it the moment he made the decision, but a deep sense of fear prevented him from stopping and could only mechanically complete the deal that made him feel uneasy.

He confirmed over and over again, and the voice in the crystal ball reassured him over and over again. Finally, everything was ready for the day, but he felt a sense of emptiness.

"Have you really done something right?"

"Will everything really develop as expected?"

"Those people will really abide by that agreement?"

The Duke closed his eyes in pain and kneaded each finger into his silver hair.

On the border of Valentine, the soldiers guarding the place were watching with vigilance as the gray-robed men of unknown origin boarded the carriage, holding an invitation letter from Plantagenet Castle, and passed through. The border area between Viero and the Deadfrost Forest, entering the territory of Lantoniland.

One of the gray-robed mage turned around before boarding the carriage, lifted his hood with his hand, stared in the direction of Bonicheel with his silver eyes, and smiled coldly.

There is a grand banquet going on there——

Eco stood next to his wife, watching her tenderly holding her daughter - the baby girl, the future of the Ophelia family. The first cry of this new life seemed to announce the past. Ending, and hope for the future.

The two leaned against each other, feeling each other's warmth. They stood on the terrace of the count's mansion and watched the people coming and going at the grand banquet below. This is a grand banquet that is rare in Lantoniland. People started preparing for it a month ago. Wine and food were sent one by one from the manor outside Burniche. The streets were covered with seals. There are curtains and ribbons with Ophelia's coat of arms, and the stone slabs are covered with flower petals.

From Golan to Elson, from Viero, from Karasu and even Anlek, Ampelser in the north, even the Temple of Fire and Her Royal Highness the Princess sent specially congratulatory envoys, and local people also gathered, Carnival and celebration for their little princess, when night fell, the festive atmosphere still did not dissipate - the lights lit up, making the city in the forest even brighter and more dazzling.

A rare night market appeared on the street, which has almost never happened since the year of frost. Artists performed under the light of bonfires, and the crowd cheered loudly; every hotel was brightly lit, and the lights were on. Like a river, it converges towards the Earl's mansion in the center of the town.

Everyone who came to the banquet had a warm smile on their faces. Even the fatigue and scars from the past were smoothed away by the arrival of new life at this moment.

What people are looking forward to seems to be Eruin's beautiful future that they can look forward to.

"Uncle Macaro said he would be here soon and he would bless our daughter."

Eco lowered his head and spoke tenderly into his wife's ear.

A gentle smile appeared on Yura's face: "You are troublesome to others again, Eco."

"If I don't ask him to come, I'm afraid this cunning fox in the kingdom will fight against our couple. He has already said that he will educate our daughter himself so that he will not be as weak as me in the future."

"You are not weak at all," Yura raised her head and replied. Although she could not see, she seemed to be able to see her husband's face: "You are a real man, Eco."

Eco laughed silently.

Among the crowd below, Haruze looked at the little girl in front of him who was about the same age as himself with some surprise.

It was a beautiful, porcelain doll-like, somewhat arrogant little girl. She had a pair of bright eyes, long light purple hair, and was wearing a doll-like dress. She tilted her head and looked at Eruin. His Highness the future king.

"Do you eat such rich food every time? You are really rich."

"It's you!" Haruze almost shouted.

"My name is Mikaya. I was honored to be entertained in Qianshui Town last time, but I really don't have much money. You won't ask me to return the invitation, right?" He also took out his empty pocket, as if to prove his words.

"Why are you here?"

"Because I'm a local. Isn't that the obvious answer?"

Haruze turned back to look for the others, but Miss Lesmeka was nowhere to be seen. She probably went shopping with her dark elf companions, and Stan that guy was probably stealing words somewhere.

Only then did he turn around: "Then... have you found your family?"

The little girl wrinkled her nose cutely: "Probably."

"Probably?"

"That's about the same thing." She suddenly became impatient, and her tone was completely different from the sweet and cute tone she had when they met last time: "Do you always have so many questions? You are condescending, and you feel like you are being bossy."

"Is there any?" Haruze asked with some guilt.

The girl nodded and suddenly grabbed the little prince's hand: "Come with me."

"Wait, wait!" Haruze felt as if he was hit by something all of a sudden. He was so nervous that his heart seemed to jump out of his chest. He subconsciously felt that he should stay at the banquet and wait for others to come back and join him. , but involuntarily, he followed the little girl out with light steps.

"Where are we going?" He couldn't help but ask uneasily when he saw the little girl pulling him further and further outside.

"Of course I saved your life."

"What?"

Before he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from the Earl's Mansion behind him. The shock caused the two of them to fly away, rolling several times and falling to the ground.

When Haruze raised his head in a daze, he saw only flames shooting into the sky in that direction, filled with smoke, and bursts of screams from the guests.

problem occurs!

Haruze was shocked and immediately realized what happened.
