Solomon, who mistakenly thought he had been rejected, came to the river and was caught by Christina to confess his love. Frustrated, he subconsciously accepted the confession without much thought. This scene was witnessed by Melanda by accident.
A complex emotional entanglement begins.
Asker walked out of the woods and saw Christina, played by Eleanor, standing by the river with an uneasy expression.
"You look depressed," said Eleanor.
"You saw it." Asik gave a symbolic wry smile and said lightly, "I confessed my love to Melanda just now."
"Oh?" Eleanor asked carefully, trying to keep her voice in a rhythm of "forced calmness" and "uncontrollable trembling," "Then what did she say?"
"She said she has no plans to consider it yet," Aske said frankly.
Of course, the actual meaning of Melanda's line just now is that I have understood your intention. I just want to wait until this battle is over and hope that you will accompany me back to Solomon City to express my love again seriously.
However, Solomon could actually understand it as rejection, and this straight man's thinking was really steel-level. Eleanor was speechless, so she said:
"Then, do you want to consider me?"
"You?" Asked.
"I'm single too." Eleanor said seriously. Her slightly uneasy yet forcibly calm expression made Wilhelm behind the scenes unable to help but praise her.
"Can I understand that..." Ask said.
"Comfort." Eleanor interrupted him, smiling sweetly, "As a consolation for your failure to confess your love, consider it? Ordinarily, you wouldn't have such a good opportunity?"
At this time, Meranda, played by Mi Er, also walked to the edge of the woods by accident and was shocked to see Solomon and Christina standing by the river.
"I...I don't know..." Asik said.
Leader, your acting skills are not good! It’s too fake! Look a little more hesitant! Eleanor cursed in her heart, but said with a smile on her face:
"Think it over carefully. If it doesn't work, just refuse it to the end. If you are tempted but don't seize the opportunity, the goddess of fate will punish you."
Mi'er grabbed the tree trunk and looked here, biting her lower lip silently. For some reason, she always had a strange illusion, as if standing there were not Asker and Eleanor who were acting, but the real Solomon and Eleanor.
Christina.
And she, as poor Melanda, is about to witness the tragic scene of her beloved being taken away.
"Okay." Asik finally said.
Eleanor was obviously relieved, and then she showed a secretly happy expression, and with a hint of girlish shyness, she gently held his hand.
Mi'er, who was watching from behind, burst into tears for some reason.
According to the setting of the script, Melanda here should have widened her eyes in shock first, and then seemed to realize something, tears bursting out of the corners of her eyes. However, in order to prevent the two people in front of her from noticing, she could only force it with her hands.
He covered his mouth and couldn't help but let out a small whimper.
It's perfect! Wilhelm behind the scenes turned the camera to Mi'er, and saw the half-elf girl's eyes were red, endless tears flowing down her cheeks, her throat was squirming slightly, her shoulders were shaking, and she was desperately suppressing it.
Listening to his own cries.
If I were still alive, I would definitely let my troupe sign this potential girl, no matter what the contract fee is... Wilhelm sighed with emotion and shouted:
"Okay, passed!"
Asker breathed a sigh of relief, let go of the hand holding Eleanor, turned around and said:
"Is the next scene going to be a fight scene again?"
"Yes." The narrator said, "The quality of the current filming has far exceeded my expectations. Come on! There are only three periods left, and this drama will be completed!"
Asker immediately showed a subtle expression. On the one hand, he hoped for more fighting scenes. After all, a copy like this that can adjust the strength of monsters at will and even restore the terrain is perfect for team practice.
On the other hand, he was fed up with those emotional scenes, which were almost like a shameful PLAY - especially since the actor playing the opposite role was a girl from the team he was familiar with.
Eleanor didn't have any expression, as if she was just acting, which made Aske breathed a sigh of relief.
Then there was Mi'er... The two of them watched in astonishment as the half-elf girl covered her eyes and walked out of the woods, tears falling uncontrollably.
"Um, Mi'er, the filming is over..." Ask thought that she might have been moved by the scene and felt the same, right? Then he saw Eleanor glare at him and rushed to wipe Mi'er's tears:
"It's okay. Mi'er, it's okay." She gently held the crying Mi'er in her arms, and then cast a serious questioning look at Aske.
Why was she crying so hard, eh?! Could it be that...
Maybe it was just that the script was too touching. Asker told her not to think too much with his eyes.
I'll ask you after I get out. Eleanor glared at him with a stern look.
————————
Inside the mountain at the bottom of Neuschwanstein Castle, a musical that will never have a chance to be shown is being filmed secretly.
Outside Swan Castle, farmers are working as usual in autumn and transporting their harvests to Mingxing City for trade. Merchants are transporting goods and hawking, garrison soldiers patrol the streets, and nobles hold meetings in their residences.
They held banquets and socialized, curiously discussing the new visitors to Weisbach Palace.
No one noticed the impending change in the situation.
In the Duke's study, Ludwig handled the government affairs in the Duke on his father's behalf, while Henry was in the corridor outside the study, drinking slowly from a bottle of beer.
A cabinet minister hurried past, saluted Henry nervously, and then knocked on the study door.
"Come in," Ludwig said.
The staff quickly pushed the door open, reported something to Ludwig in a low voice, handed over the documents in their hands, and then hurriedly left.
"What's wrong?" Henry also pushed the door open and came in.
"Urgent information from Franconia." Ludwig frowned and flipped through the documents in his hand, and soon his brow almost turned into a dark cloud.
"The Duke of Franconia...the Griffin family has announced its support for the Principality of Burgundy, signed a military alliance contract with the Wolf family, and resolutely defended the Holy See and the Holy See's decree." He put down the document and rubbed it vigorously with his thumb.
Between the eyebrows, "Every line from Franconia to Swabia has defected. The church personnel sent by the king have been expelled from the principality and have been fully taken over by senior clergy designated by the Holy See. Since then, the Griffin family has completely broken up with His Majesty Otto.
"
"Where is father?" Henry frowned and said, "Did they..."
"They won't do anything to my father. After all, they can't completely force the Principality of Bavaria into the emperor's camp, right? Now the Duke is leading the team on the way back." Ludwig stood up and looked out the study window at the vast sky.
