Ilea hurried to the dungeon, where she learned that the person had been rescued.
The two retired soldiers were still helping to check the bodies of the detainees, while Ona had been placed in a nearby hotel to rest.
So Miss Rabbit turned around and went to the hotel, where she finally met her great-grandmother.
The old man looks much thinner than before. The food in the dungeon is terrible and the sanitary conditions are not very good.
Although Clovis followed the tradition of the West and gave Ona a separate cell to avoid her being crowded with other prisoners.
But Ona's current age can no longer withstand the torment. After two months in the dungeon, she has become visibly older, and the wrinkles on her face have become deeper.
"Great-grandmother." The female lord saw Ona and threw herself into the latter's arms.
The old man was also very happy after seeing the girl. He reached out and touched her ears, "Ilea, I knew you would come."
"I'm sorry, I'm late." A mist appeared in Miss Rabbit's eyes. She just realized that there was nothing under the old man's clothes when she hugged her. Her body could already be described as skinny. It is estimated that the weight has not left the green field yet.
half of.
"You're not too late," Ona said. "Everyone says that those Wing Tribes and their army are invincible, and anyone who tries to stop them will only be destroyed.
"But I know you, I understand your changes over the years, I have witnessed you defeat one powerful enemy after another, complete one impossible challenge after another, and you still have the blessing of Saturday.
"It sent the prophet Merlin to guide you and the Arias family all the way here. I have never doubted this even when I was in prison."
"Why didn't you leave here before? I asked someone to send you a letter because I was worried that Clovis would attack you."
"Now that I have lived to my age, I am no longer so afraid of death." Ona said calmly, "The Figuerola family decided to turn to those Wing tribe people. When I first heard the news, I knew that there was definitely a certain relationship between you and them.
Conflicts will occur.
"Your vassal status will be a problem then. David once instructed Carloman to murder your father Russ. If Clovis kills me again, then even if you raise an army and capture Rock Snow City, other nobles in the West will also
Can't blame you for that."
"I don't need this kind of excuse," Miss Rabbit shook her head. "We are resisting those Wing Tribe people together. This is enough reason for the other lords to stand by our side right now, not to mention the reconstruction provided by Merlin and me."
Fund, everyone sees what I do."
"But what if Clovis also decides to return from his lost ways?" Ona asked, "Given the prestige of the Figuerola family in the West, if Clovis is willing to lead everyone to deal with those Wing tribesmen, what will happen to the others?
think?"
"Then I will give up my position as the commander of the resistance army." The female lord blurted out.
"This is exactly what I am worried about." Ona sighed, "You know, many people, including me, have always had doubts in their hearts."
"What question?"
"Why is that you."
"Why me?" The girl was a little confused when she heard this.
"Why did Saturday and Merlin choose you instead of others? Have you ever asked the Prophet this question?"
"Uh... because I have this?" the female lord picked up the electronic pet egg hanging around her neck, "Merlin said when we first met that he had something to do with this necklace."
"Then why did you get this necklace?"
"Father gave it to me."
"I don't think all this is just a coincidence. Russ has been holding the necklace for a long time, but nothing happened." Ona said, "And after you got the necklace, Merlin appeared. Ilea, you are
The chosen one." The old man said seriously.
"Who chose me."
"Saturday, you have had responsibilities since you were born."
"Do I...have it?" The girl scratched her head.
"Yes." Ona confirmed, "You are destined to achieve great things, but sometimes you are too kind."
“Isn’t it bad to be kind?”
"Kindness is good, but if you want to really accomplish great things, you sometimes need to be ruthless and compete with others. Besides, this is what belongs to you. Without you to step forward, the Western Territory would have fallen long ago.
The Figuerola family, like the Penlos family, also surrendered to those barbaric Wing tribesmen.
"Promise me that from now on you will never give anything that belongs to you to others."
The old man's face was very serious, and he held his great-granddaughter's hands with great force, even pinching the girl's arms with red marks.
The female lord thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, I also feel that it is a bit of a loss to give it to someone else after spending so much effort, and Merlin should also hope that I will become the master of this land, so that the Shuangxiu Cult can also develop.
It’s better.”
"That's right." Ona said happily, "You have just conquered this city and there are still many things to be busy with, so don't stay here with me anymore."
"But your body..."
"There is nothing serious about my health. I just need to recover for a while. I will come to help you when the time comes. I have lived here for more than two years and know many people."
"Well, Aunt Alisa will come over in a few days, and you can manage the city with her."
Shortly after Miss Rabbit left, another guest came to the hotel. After seeing that person, Ona drove the maid out of the room.
Ivan closed the door and looked around to make sure there was no one inside before saying, "Clovis is dead."
"How did you die?"
"Self-immolation, he refused to surrender and was buried in the sea of fire together with his beloved book. It was very heroic."
"very good."
"I asked people to make it as clean as possible, but time is tight, and we can only do it to this extent. People who are familiar with Clovis should be suspicious."
"So what if you have doubts?" Ona said lightly, "Now the Arias family is the most powerful in the West, and those nobles still need Ilea to continue to lead them to fight against the Wing tribesmen and their allies. Smart people will keep their eyes closed.
Mouth."
"You are right, I think so too." Yiwang agreed.
"As a result, the rift between the Arias family and the Figuerola family will be irreparable. As long as the Arias family is still in the West, they will not be able to come back.
"It's a pity Lord Clovis. It is said that when he was dying, he hoped that Sir Ilea would spare his life and let him continue reading in the library."
Ona didn't think it was anything, and snorted softly, "Has Clovis forgotten what his family did to the previous Lord of the West in order to rule this land?
"If you make the wrong choice, you will have to pay the price. Ilea is kind enough to just kill him."
