She Chooses To Destroy the World

Chapter 99: New order.

The next day, after Alice finished Miss Miranda’s swordsmanship course, she went to the hotel where everyone stayed.

Liliel also came, and this time, she and the other two mages were sitting together for afternoon tea.

“The king has talked with the high priest.” She blinked at Alice, “Everything is going well. In two days, the treaty can be officially signed.”

This is good news, but it is a natural result. Alice didn’t know how Liliel told the king, did the king know…his high priest has changed?

The king is also nearly fifty years old, and it is absolutely impossible to have any naive ideas…Anyway, this seems to be something that you can’t think about.

Liliel didn’t intend to confuse Alice, but just put on a natural expression, she took out a letter from her chest:

“What about the kid you talked about before? After I told His Majesty the King, His Majesty wrote a letter personally, asking him to take it to the Northland to give it to Earl Rachel.”

It seems that Vioretta and the others told Liliel about Jill.

Although Alice often runs here recently, she is always busy communicating with the wizards and hasn’t seen Jill for several days. The matter of the high priest is compared before, and the fact that Jill is easily overlooked. However, these mages are here to chat and drink tea every day, and they have a lot of time to discuss various things.

“How is he?” Alice asked, “Where are my two friends?”

“The kid is staying in his room,” Vioretta said. “His mother has been taking care of him…that’s his mother, right?”

Alice nodded.

“Look, I said it was his mother.” Violetta said to Ned. “She looked at him differently.”

“Anyway, for your friend’s sake, we treat him very preferentially.” Violetta said, “I barely locked him up and allowed him to go out…but I don’t think he wants to run away, he always says he wants to go back. Save the friends locked in the dungeon.”

Having said that, Vioretta laughed.

“Still a child.” She said so, turning to Ned. “If you are locked up by someone, I will never save you.”

Ned, who seldom speaks and only plays with the two female wizards, shrugged:

“It’s obvious.”

Alice took the letter prepared by His Majesty the King from Lilière:

“I’m going to give him things.”

“Considering that Rachel’s people probably already know that the wizards have arrived in the royal capital, according to the setting, this should be the second letter written by His Majesty the King to the Archmage Talus.” Liliel reminded Alice, ” Discuss with that kid a good explanation, so that he doesn’t show any flaws.”

“I see, don’t worry.”

Alice took the letter to Jill and met Lena in the corridor.

Lena saw the letter in her hand, her face turned a little pale:

“This is… the letter you want him to send?”

Alice nodded.

Lena pursed her lips and said nothing, Alice could more or less guess what she was thinking.

“You can’t go with him.” Alice said, “This is not something you can help… It’s too dangerous and too complicated. It’s not easy for him to get involved alone.”

Lena still pursed her lips and lowered her head:

“I know.”

Alice seldom sees Lena’s expression, and she feels very uncomfortable:

“Did you tell him?”

Lena shook her head:

“I am not qualified.” She said, “He has worked hard to live this big by himself, and then suddenly he didn’t know where a woman popped up and said that she was his mother? Forget it, I can even imagine him. expression.”

Alice sighed:

“This is your own business, you have the final say.”

The few words spoken with Lena seemed to pull Alice back into a certain daily life, and she was a little absent. Go to Jill’s room and give the letter to him, and leave after instructing some precautions.

Jill had already packed the package, he put the letter in properly, and was about to leave. When he opened the door, he found Lena standing outside.

“I heard Alice say…you are leaving. I’m here to say goodbye to you.”

It was not easy for Lena to say this. Her lips were smiling and her eyes were wide open, for fear that tears would roll down when she blinked. She stood here, in order to say hello to Jill one last time, she knew in her heart that this might be Yong Jue.

Jill stood still in front of Lena.

No one had ever said anything to Jill about his life experience, but Jill was originally an extraordinarily smart boy. He can feel someone who treats him exceptionally well… and can guess why.

In fact, he cannot be 100% sure of some things, but sometimes, the truth of some things does not matter, the key lies in how he treats them.

At this moment, Jill stretched out his hand and wiped Lena’s eyes.

Lena kept controlling herself not to cry, but after a touch of him, the tears in her eyes fell on his hands. Jill left a kiss on her cheek and whispered in her ear:

“Goodbye… Mom.”

Lina was stunned, and it took a while to react, and suddenly raised her head to ask:

“how do you know-”

She couldn’t finish her words, because at this moment Jill had already walked to the other side of the corridor, he didn’t speak any more, just smiled at Lena, and then disappeared to the end of her sight.

Alice didn’t know all these things that happened in the hotel corridor.

She looked at the hotel as if there was nothing she had to do, so she passed the letter to Jill and went back. As soon as she returned to the mansion, the Arnold Knight came and told her that the Duchess was looking for her.

Hey, is the Duchess looking for something to her?

Alice was a little embarrassed to think that during this period of time she had been busy with matters related to the signing of the treaty between the king and the mage tower.

She is a knight of the duchess, and she comes with the duchess to the royal capital to serve as a guard. Although after being borrowed by His Majesty the King, of course he has to complete the task assigned by His Majesty. But now that she has returned to the royal capital, she should have focused more on the Duchess’ side.

However, the purpose of calling her this time was not to blame her.

“Today I went to see the king.” The Duchess said bluntly.

Alice looked up at her a little unexpectedly.

Just listen to the duchess continue to say:

“I don’t know what Liliel did in it, so that he could tell the high priest to no longer oppose the alliance between the king and the Flamel mage… Anyway, the king specially came to tell me today that they will soon To prepare to sign the treaty again, ask me if I want to join.”

“So your answer is—”

“I promised him.” The Duchess said, “After the cooperation between the king and the wizard is reached, it is only a matter of time before the Northland is taken. If we do not want to join, it will only put us at a disadvantage. The king has verbally agreed to move the Northland after the war is over. One-third of the territory to the west is ceded to us. I will find a way to get him to sign a formal treaty these days.”

After saying this, the Duchess paused a little.

“Of course, besides political considerations, I have other considerations-you should know why I am interested in joining.”

Alice nodded silently.

From the Duchess’ point of view, the death of her sister Olivia is quite closely related to Earl Rachel…Of course she would want revenge. Although Olivia was not actually dead, her current situation… is no different from her death.

The Duchess continued:

“I proposed to His Majesty that I would let my people lead the soldiers into Born at last, and asked him to hand over Rachel to me… He agreed. As for the leader, I’m considering letting you go.”

“Your Highness!”

For a knight, the opportunity to charge and fight is the best compliment bestowed by the lord. In such a war, as long as they can make military exploits, they will be given titles and truly become nobles with titles. Alice had never dared to expect such an opportunity when she was eighteen years old, and she was surprised.

The duke looked at Alice, and Alice felt a lot of trust in her eyes. But at the same time, Alice also felt heavy.

When she was in the Northland, Alice once swore to the Duchess’ sister Olivia that she would not tell the Duchess about her. But before the war was about to start, Alice felt… she couldn’t hide it anymore.

If he were replaced by another knight, he might regard his vows as the most important thing in the world. After inheriting the spirit of Philo’s knight, Alice is indeed like a knight in appearance now, but there are some things that she thinks are more important than the glory of the knight.

While thinking like this, she touched the covenant ring on her hand.

This ring was forced to wear by Count Rachel. Although the Duchess knew what it was, she never asked. At this time, the ring became hot because of many things that were about to happen, and it almost burned her fingers.

It’s time, there can be no more delay.

Alice knelt down on one knee:

“His Royal Highness, there is something…I have to tell you.”

The Duchess looked at her suspiciously.

So Alice began when she was imprisoned by Earl Rachel in the dungeon, where she became a follower of the doomsday **** Cecilia, and told the Duchess everything that happened after that, including Oli, who had become a priestess. Wei, the agreement that Earl Rachel and Count Rachel had made with her… until Cecilian announced to her that he was about to wake up.

This complicated story made the duchess frown deeper and deeper. The Duchess remained silent until Alice had finished speaking. After a long time, she finally said:

“I know you have some secrets… but I didn’t expect…”

The duke’s voice was very soft, and some could not hear the joy or anger. Alice just felt ashamed, lowered her head, and waited for the Duchess’ trial. At this time, the voice of the Duchess became firm:

“In that case, I order you to lead your troops to the Northland and bring Olivia back safely.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”
