...

"Is this really good?"

"What?"

"Let Yifei, Youyu, Lian and others go to Bianfeng Town," Ash hugged Tilly, who was sitting at the desk from behind, "It was Hedy Morgan's request to you, right?"

Since learning about the existence of the sea line, the Five Kings Girls have been soaking herself in the study almost every day, with books piled up on the table that she could never finish reading, including those given to her by Roland and those found from the remains. Seeing her body being flooded by books, Ashes always feel inexplicably distressed.

"Well," Tilly put down her quill and leaned back easily, "She doesn't want me to control my connection with secular forces alone, and I have no reason to reject her."

"That person is your brother, why should she think she can be the same as you?"

"Because she is also a member of the royal family," Tilly smiled and shook her head. "The higher the status, the weaker the affection will be. This is the same in any kingdom. Hetty is very clear about this, so he made this decision."

"She plans to compete with you for His Highness Roland's support?" Ashes frowned.

"Of course not that fast. This time I think she was just going to inquire about the situation."

"Then you promise her!" Ashes let go of his hands and his voice fell, "It seems that I have to go and have a good talk with her."

It is His Highness Tilly's affinity and tolerance that has made the witch, who has suffered from the destruction and oppression of the church, and has gathered it together. But this does not mean that someone can regard tolerance as weakness and trust as the bottom line of temptation. If anyone wants to break all this, she will never let the other party go.

Before Ash could turn around, Tilly grabbed her arm, "Why don't you agree? As I said before, I have no reason to refuse. Sleeping Island is our homeland, and all the witches are free people here. As long as they do not harm everyone's safety, I will not stop them. And..." She exhaled, "It is not a bad thing to let them go to the West."

"Not...a bad thing?" Ashes asked in confusion.

"Have you ever wondered why Blood Teeth was not different from other witches at first, but now it is slowly becoming more prominent?"

She thought for a while, "Because... the reason why life has settled?"

"That's right," Tilly nodded, "the church was pressing against everyone's hearts like a mountain before. In order to survive, everyone must get close together. But now the churches on the fjord islands have been eradicated, and the Sleeping Island has gained a relatively relaxed environment, and people's hearts have naturally begun to float. This is a normal phenomenon. We are different from the Co-Aid Association, and are a complex of many witch organizations, so blindly suppressing is not feasible. If we want everyone to still work together as we did at the beginning, we need a powerful enemy."

Ashes frowned and said, "You mean... the devil?"

"The enemy deep in the fertile plains, the miserable defeat of the Federation, the upcoming third battle of divine will... These things are more effective than me to tell them." Tilly smiled, "and in the border town, they can see much more than this."

The Five Princess stood up, walked to the door leading to the back garden in the study room, and opened the door, "They will see that non-combat witches can also play an irreplaceable role, they will see that ordinary people have abilities comparable to witches, and they will see the amazing effects of everyone when they unite. Just like this door... After they are pushed open, they will usher in a wider world."

"..." Ashes quietly looked at the woman bathed in the sun, unable to say a word. The gray hair reflected a dazzling luster, and fluttered with the passing sea breeze, even the back was indescribable. Time seemed to be frozen here, and in this small study, she and herself were left.

After a long time, Tilly turned around and smiled sly, "And there are special reasons why I chose Yifei and Youyu. Roland should be able to understand what I think."

************************

Anna pushed Roland beside her.

“It’s time to get up.”

"Wait a little longer," Roland hugged her sideways and sniffed the faint fragrance from the ends of her hair from behind.

After returning to Wudong City from Wangdu, he spent the whole night with Anna. The brief separation made the reunion particularly hot, but the result was that neither of them could get up the next morning... Anna missed the magic exercise of the day for the first time. It was not that she didn't want to go, but that Roland refused to let her go.

Of course, in the face of his request, Anna did not express any refusal.

From noon to evening, there was a lingering atmosphere in the air. When they were resting, they sat on the head of the bed, chatting about what happened in the two places these days, and even lunch was brought into the house by the maid. Of course, at this time, Anna would shrink into the quilt, look down and see a pair of sapphire-like eyes shining brightly on his chest.

After touching the other person's smooth back, Anna couldn't help but let out a cat-like hum. Although after a year of growth, she was no longer the thin and weak girl in the prison, she could still be perfectly embedded in her arms when she curled up. She kissed her earlobe from behind and saw her cheeks slowly turning red and her eyelashes tremble slightly, which was so cute.

After a while, she pushed Roland away again.

"Wendy and the others are about to come back. This time a new witch comes, you have to go and wash up." Anna turned around and said seriously to him face to face.

"Well," Roland responded softly. He knew that he could not drag it anymore this time. He kissed the other person's lips. He turned over and got up from the bed, helped Anna get dressed first, and then put on a coat for himself.

The basin of the water placed on the table had cooled, but this was not a problem for Anna. A trace of black fire jumped into the water and heated up in the blink of an eye. After the two of them washed up, Roland sent her back to the bedroom first, and then returned to the office on the third floor at least before the pick-up witch came back, he could do a serious job.

A quarter of an hour later, Lightning and Maisie rushed into the house from the open floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Your Majesty, they are here."

...

"I didn't expect that you had become the king of Graycastle after only a month," Hefeng was the first to walk into the castle hall. Four witches were followed by her, including the familiar Lian and Honey. The other two saw each other for the first time. "It wasn't Wendy who told me that I can't believe it... If Tilly knew, she would definitely be very surprised."

Roland smiled and greeted him, "I didn't hold the throne ceremony, so it doesn't matter if I called me the way I used to."

"But you are already a well-deserved king," Hefeng bowed and bowed.

Lian and Mitang also gave a tribute in an exaggerated manner, and then the two of them simply stroked their chests, and the expressions of the four of them were completely different. They were filled with the joy of reunion, but they looked alert.

Roland couldn't help but be a little surprised.
