Thea would never have expected such an ending. On the day after she met her brother, Royd Cromay was executed in public. When the news heard the news, thea almost fainted.

The poor girl was sad all night. She buried her face in the pillow and cried moaningly. The long-term experience of wandering has allowed her to learn to be strong in adversity, but after all, she is just a girl under the age of eighteen.

At this age, what are the princesses in other countries doing like her?

It is a life that is loved by the family while living in fairy tales, with rich clothes and food, and people are served everywhere. Occasionally, I would be lazy and want to sleep in. I hate those palace teachers who are chewing and picky, and the afternoon tea that I spent peacefully with my best friend. I have longed for the future prince charming. Once upon a time, Xiya also had such a life, but now, these once ordinary daily life is covered by increasingly terrifying reality and has become nothing more than nothing.

Sometimes Xiya feels wronged, dissatisfied, and wants to vent her throat - why, but she just wants to let herself encounter such a thing, why is fate so unfair, and why?

But after venting like this, Xiya would always wipe away her tears and stand up. She knew very well that if she tried her best to go on, there might be a glimmer of hope, but if she chose to give up, she would see nothing.

This time, Thea really felt this way.

It seems like hope or something is really impossible to see at all.

After crying for a night, Xiya's mental state was in a very bad state. She overdrawn her physical strength, but she was immersed in sorrow and could not fall asleep. Because once she closed her eyes, her brother's tortured terrible appearance would enter her mind. The girl curled up and kept telling herself that all this was not hopeless. She was even a little lucky that there was no annoying maids and nobles coming to disturb her on this rare morning, but when she heard the sounds of yelling in the square outside, she was not very adaptable for a while - she decided to ignore it, until the cheers like a huge wave burst out, she realized that something seemed to be happening outside.

She hesitated for a while, but she still called her personal maid, the woman who had been sent to the Duke's Mansion with Xiya.

Amusha was not originally Xiya's personal maid, but an ordinary maid in the palace. However, after escaping from the kingdom together, he followed Xiya and lingered until today and developed feelings for her. Amusha has a 9-year-old daughter, who is naturally much older than Xiya. Many times, this little princess with a strong appearance but a weak heart will only reveal her weak side in front of Amusha. Over time, this is a kind of trust and dependence.

But today, when Thea asked what happened outside Amusha, Amusha's eyes, who had always been talking, were dodging.

This made Xiya's chest tighten for no reason.

There were still tears in her eyes, and her eyes were swollen because she cried all night. Although Xiya had a proud foundation, staying up late and sadness were indeed the enemy of women. She looked very weak, with a pale body like a willow. But her eyes were at least strong. She grabbed Amusha's arm and asked, "What happened?"

Because of the pain, Amusha couldn't help frowning, but she didn't dare to break away from the other party, so she could only whisper in a hesitation: "His Majesty the King, he..."

"What's wrong with him?"

"He was taken out for execution." Amusha said with his head down, raising his face to observe Xiya's reaction, and she suddenly was shocked.

Is that the princess I know who can grit her teeth and persevere no matter how much suffering I suffer?

Xiya stood there like a lightning strike for a long time. After a long time, she suddenly woke up and suddenly shook Amusha and ran outwards.

"Princess!" Amusha shouted at her back, but unfortunately no matter how fast the voice was, he could not catch up with the girl's pace.

Amusha finally lowered her hand and watched her leave with uneasy eyes.

Thea was in a hurry at this moment. God knew that a princess was wearing only a nightgown and was running barefoot in the vast palace. She ran faster and faster, and even the tears that had overflowed her eyes were thrown behind her. Fortunately, no one came to stop her. Although many guards saw her, they stopped because of her loud scolding.

"Get out!" She was as stern as a real queen.

Logically speaking, the guards here were not actually Xiya's subordinates. They obeyed the orders of another person, but just this scolding, they hesitated and retreated.

"Go and report to the adults." Someone gave an idea.

Thea ignored the voices and did not stop her. She moved forward, just like the two years when she walked by her feet without help.

But someone still blocked her way. The man just stood at the gate of the castle, standing proudly on the steps of dozens of meters below the royal city, overlooking the crowd below. In the eyes of Thea, he was like the king of this kingdom - the evil and despicable power thief.

She was anxious and wanted to rush over—there was only one person, she thought so.

However, when she ran to the other party, she was shocked because there were countless people surrounded by people. They were responding to his call? No, Xiya realized that the person waiting for these people was herself.

She couldn't help but turn her head to look at the confident and calm figure. He was still smiling, as if she was not surprised by her arrival. No matter what, Siya was still one step later. The public execution of her brother, the former king Royd Kromay, had ended. She saw the guillotine in the center of the square, and she saw the body with separate body and head. No matter how much she could, she could no longer see clearly. Tears blurred her eyes, and her heart was bleeding.

The cruel and cold demon next to him said again: "This is what your brother meant. He told me not to tell you in advance. I have to say that doing this is a good move. Compared to living with pain and humility in your life, this is still the same way..."

"Shut up."

"Hmm?" Lance suddenly reacted. He was not angry about his words being interrupted, but instead laughed: "Are you angry? But you are your people who are cheering for the execution. Smile and say hello."

"Shut up." Tears kept flowing out of Xiya's eyes and dripped onto the ground.

"It seems you don't seem to believe me very much," Lance shrugged and said regretfully. "We just need each one. My princess, if you want to repent, I don't care. Look, all your future subjects are gathered here. As you move forward in the revolution, you can announce to them that you are now going to avenge your killed brother and let them kill me..."

The devil slanted across his eyes and looked at it coldly.

There was a moment when Xiya really wanted to do this, at worst she could fight to the death with the other party.

But soon rationally told herself that doing so would be of no use except to make herself doomed. The purpose of these people participating in the revolution was to overthrow the king's rule, and to revenge a tyrannical king. Who should I do to? Lance said right, when the public was executed, these people kept shouting. If she said such words now, wouldn't she have to clearly express her position of being an enemy of everyone?

Xiya smiled. She tried hard to pull the corner of her mouth and let herself laugh out loud. The tears finally dried up at this moment. She felt as if the tears of her life had dried up in this day and night. What she wanted to shed was blood.

Your own blood, the people's blood, and the enemies' blood!

She smiled and waved to the people who were surging below.

"Today, we have executed a sinner who betrayed the kingdom. As relatives, I am very sad inside, but as a princess of a kingdom and the future queen, it is necessary to punish the blood shed by sinners. Justice needs to be done. Even if that person is my brother, the former king cannot forgive me - I am proud and proud of the new kingdom and people!" She suddenly used all her strength to shout at the crowd below.

At first everyone was slightly stunned. After a brief silence, the people of the Kingdom of Asbello responded to their future queen with extremely enthusiastic cheers.

"It seems you made the right choice, so that we can continue to cooperate." Lance said in a volume that only Thea could hear.

"No need," Thea blinked his red eyes and interrupted him with a trembling voice, but she said not only to Lance, but to the crowd gathered in the square, and announced enthusiastically: "Today there is one more thing to tell everyone. I have been in love with this Viscount Lancelot for a long time. It was he who has been by my side to support me, so that I can get to this point today. Here, I want to announce the marriage of our two people to everyone. The wedding will be held at my throne ceremony tomorrow!"

This passage shocked not only the people, but even Lance was stunned.

What's going on?

He had no such arrangement in his impression. Obviously, it was added by Xiya temporarily on his own initiative, and combined with her obvious hostility towards herself just now, Lance quickly reacted: "Do you want to use this method to coerce me?"

Obviously, in Lance's plan, he did not intend to stand out in this country. His needs for this kingdom only have human and material resources, and in addition, he needed a stable environment. Therefore, he supported Queen Siya on the surface to control the order of the country, and secretly let Kuka on the pirated duke control the undercurrent. He himself just needs to retreat behind the scenes and develop his territory in the abyss with peace of mind.

But if we look at it from Thea's perspective, Lance is a country thief who has a ill-hearted intention. Before, Thea was willing to be used because she was only thinking about revenge on the duke and saving her brother, so she obeyed Lance unconditionally. She even thought that if this man is trustworthy, she could consider marrying him and then handing over the country to him. Thea is not an ambitious person, she just wants to achieve her wish.

But now hope is shattered, and pure love splashes all over the ground and is shattered.

She suddenly realized that Lance wanted to manipulate herself to gain the highest power in this country, just like the Duke at the time. She was as despicable and unyielding as the Duke, but this man was more cunning and difficult than the Duke, and she cheated her and forced her to no way out.

So Thea simply pulled him from behind the scenes to the front of others.

Don’t you want to hide? Let everyone take a look at your ugly face hidden under the mask!

What Xiya thought of for a moment was that if he intended to manipulate himself like the Duke manipulated his brother, then she would not agree to die. She wanted to focus all hatred on him. Even if she died like her brother, she must let everyone know that the murderer was the person in front of her.

This method is already very good for a woman's urgent intelligence, but the problem is that Lance's purpose is obviously different from what Thea thought, and he does not care about this country, these humans. To be honest, after the next tide of demons in the abyss, the real war begins, and whether a small country like Asbellude can continue to exist must be put into a big question. You must know that the original demon lord had already occupied half of the territory of the entire human kingdom.

Lance has always been disliked by things that he has lost his control, but he is a little curious. What kind of mentality does the other party have to marry him? Lance is certainly not stupid enough to see the uncovered hatred in the other party's eyes. Obviously, this princess has blamed her brother for all the trouble and punishment of her brother.

But even so, she said so, which is worth pondering. What exactly does she want to do?

Thea didn't give Lance too much time to think. Amid the noise of the crowd, she turned around, quickly tiptoed to Lance's arms, and kissed him on his lips. However, there was no love in the girl's eyes, only endless anger and hatred. This time, it seemed like the exchange in the Duke's Mansion, but Lance was indeed a little passive.

A trace of enlightenment suddenly flashed in Lance's mind, and he suddenly realized what this was.

All along, Thea acted as a piece he had laid out on the board, but now, the piece began to have its own consciousness and disrupted his plan. This was the first step of revenge. And Lance did not feel that the revenge was stopped when she got here, and she must be planning something.

But rather than considering these or not, Lance cared more about the shadows extending across the castle gate. He reached out and made a gesture, allowing Victor and Ravenkes, who were ambushing there, to immediately stop Fiona's rampage.

Life is really hanging on the line, Lance thought.

The kiss was very deep, and for a long time, the two of them really separated like lovers who had been in love for many years.

A cheer and whistle burst out from the square under the royal city. Lance looked at Siya and stroked the other person's cheek with his hand, affectionately: "It seems that I really underestimate you, Princess Siya, but is it really good for you to do this? I can already determine that you are declaring war on me, right?"
