(Thank you for the continuous monthly pass of the secluded world!Thank you brother for your support!)

An embarrassing silence hangs over this ice cave, and over time, the embarrassment gradually turns into despair for the future.

Now the two of them were like the first mate and boatswain on the same wrecked ship, and there was a storm on the sea, and it was so dark that there was no light or course. And the most desperate thing is that the captain himself is still unconscious.

In order to avoid the atmosphere of despair from fermenting, Willet, as the first mate, broke the silence, "Isn't there a letter from Icewind Castle yet?"

"Charlotte will definitely come!" Lily the leprechaun raised her little fist and waved as if to cheer everyone on.

But Leonard didn't respond immediately, unlike Lily's innocence, this topic made his heart sink, and what he feared most now was that Violet, as the first mate, would abandon the ship. Strictly speaking, Claire was Malthus's sworn enemy, and if Villette was willing to sell Claire as a bargaining chip to surrender to Malthus, the latter would probably accept allegiance regardless of his previous suspicions.

Although there is a possibility of a future reckoning, Willett will at least be able to buy valuable time for the set-up.

In order to avoid the most desperate situation, it is necessary to dispel the doubts of Villerett!

Leonard didn't force himself to change his expression, but still worried, "I'm worried that those messengers were intercepted by Malthus's men, and they didn't get the message to Teacher Charlotte. ”

"Aren't you worried that Icewind Castle won't make a move?" Willette felt little hope, "Leonard, I don't know if Claire has ever told you about the current situation. The fall of the Sky City of Rivadeo, the fate of the Lord of Sylvia is uncertain, the gods secretly order the Church to support the Erotha rebels, and His Majesty Emmanuel resists the invasion of Steeu alone...... At this point, I believe you can also analyze from the existing signs that there will be a fierce battle between the gods and our mage group in the future, right?"

Of course, Leonard had listened to Claire's analysis, and in fact, what Claire said to him was similar to what Charlotte said to Vivien and Lolita a while ago. Hearing Willett bring up this topic at this moment, Leonard's heart suddenly chuckled.

He can't pretend to be crazy and stupid, that will only make both sides suspicious of each other. I can only nod and admit that I understand the situation.

"In that case, then if you stand in the position of the Grand Duke of Icewind Castle, you will also have some concerns, right?" Wellright frowned, "If the Sylvia Alliance Lord is still fine, as long as you convene the Icewind Castle, the Eye of Time, and the Soul Seat, you will have a legitimate reason to intervene." However, our three major organizations only worship the alliance leader Sylvia, and have no affiliation with Icewind Castle itself. If Charlotte leads Icewind Castle to participate in this matter, maybe, no, it should be said that it will inevitably turn into a war between the two mage organizations. From the perspective of the overall environment, this is very unfavorable to our Mage Alliance. Considering the above situation, do you still believe that Icewind Castle will intervene?"

"Of course! I trust Charlotte!" Lily still insisted, and Vill gave Lily a glance that didn't bother to pay attention to her. This caused Lily to pout unhappily.

Leonard, on the other hand, was speechless.

From a purely rational point of view, as a grand duke, you should never destroy the overall situation for the sake of personal feelings. But if he can't convince Willet, will the first mate really abandon the ship?

Leonard's brain raced, forcing himself to reverse his current unfavorable situation.

He glanced at Villerite and noticed that the expression on the Bloodline Princess's face was not threatening, but worried. This made him secretly relieved, he thought, it seems that Villette is still emotionally unwilling to abandon the broken ship after all.

Leonard's eyes lit up, and he thought he had probably found a way out.

"Although talking about it may cause displeasure to adults. Leonard paused, and said cautiously, "But I suppose the relationship between Lord and Lord Gloria must be very close, right?"

Violet frowned uncomfortably, "Just say anything, Leonard." ”

"Then I'll be offended. I would like to ask your Excellency, if you or Gloria-sama were in the situation we are in today, would you, who are close friends to each other, go out of your way to help each other?"

"That's nature!" replied Villerite without hesitation, and not only that, but there was a look of pride on her slightly pale face. Apparently, she thought Leonard had asked a stupid question.

"That's it!" Leonard smiled, "As far as I know, Teacher Charlotte and Teacher Claire have known each other since childhood, and have had many adventures of living and dying together since then. I am afraid of it, but I have the courage to say that the friendship between the two teachers is definitely not as shallow as that between you and Lord Gloria!"

Leonard finally added, "You asked me if I was convinced that Mr. Charlotte would come to the rescue, and my answer remained the same - yes! I still believe in it!"

Villerite was speechless.

It took a long time for her to ask, as if she was going to be sure, "Even at the risk of an all-out war between Icewind Castle and the Soul Seat?"

Following this line of thought, Leonard suddenly felt that his thinking was unusually broad. He put himself in the role of Charlotte, secretly thinking about how he would choose to change his position as the teacher. In this way, the answer becomes very clear.

Leonard shook his head, "I don't think Mr. Charlotte would take such a risk. ”

"Hmm?!" Villeret's eyes widened as if she felt being teased, but she quickly guessed the cause and effect, "You mean Charlotte will intervene in this dispute in her personal name?"

Leonard nodded hesitantly.

Violet sighed, "I hope he still has some killer features, otherwise it's just a lot of backing." ”

When she said this, Leonard, who was full of confidence just now, suddenly felt that his future was bleak again. Aware of his mood change, Violet frowned slightly in reproach, and said to Leonard, "Don't overthink it! As long as he comes, there will always be a way for the two of us to send your master and apprentice out. ”

"Lord Villeret!" Leonard said with a mixture of emotion and shame. At that moment, he felt that his self, who had been repeatedly guarding against Villeret, was really dark inside. But soon, he got rid of his emotional vacillation and forced himself to look at humanity in a desperate situation in a more rational state.

Villerit stopped talking, silently picking up a frozen fish from the basket, as if she was facing some root-level spell problem. After being silent for a long time, he asked embarrassedly, "This...... How to dissect?"

Dissect?!

It took Leonard a long time to understand the meaning of Villelet's words, and he took the frozen fish and held back a smile, "Leave it to me, Lord Villeret." ”

"Hmm...... Also, yes. I'll take a look at it, and when you're done, I'll figure out how to make the frozen fish into minced meat. A twist flashed across Villeret's face, and she quickly emphasized, "Don't get me wrong, you're so young, and as an elder, I'm embarrassed to leave everything to you." ”

She held out her hand to Leonard, who was holding the quilt in his arms, "Give him to me, I hope he wakes up sooner so that he can give us a little more strength." Although the temperature on my body is not high, it is better than the glacier on the ground. ”

"No, don't! I don't want to leave Leonard!" Lily's retort had no effect.

Leonard found it a little annoying that Willet had to explain every time, but he didn't think much of it. It wasn't until he handed the group to Wellett that he noticed for the first time that Wellett's movements were very gentle when he received the group, and then he thought of the twisted look that Willett had just flashed in an instant, and an unbelievable thought suddenly crossed his mind like lightning!

Miss Villelet, is she supposed to ......

"What's wrong?" As a blood clan, except for the twisted look just now, Villelit did not change at all in the blood color of her face.

"Ahh

Leonard didn't know what he was feeling right now.

He clearly remembered that the person Villette liked seemed to be Gloria!
