The cold north wind was whistling like a knife, and it hurt people's faces.

But what is even colder is the human heart.

Riding on the galloping horse, the man's heart felt a chill.

The man was about thirty years old, handsome, resolute, and not stout with a body that concealed unimaginable strength. The pair of pointed ears and the longbow he was carrying on his back were clearly different from the style commonly used on the mainland, clearly reflecting his identity.

The hands holding the reins moved skillfully, and the horse, which had already understood the meaning of its master, slowly slowed down.

The man stroked the horse's neck in distress, which was wet with sweat.

Although this is a horse carefully bred by the elves, it is hard to find in human society, but such a long gallop will also be unbearable.

However, the speed slowed down, and the man's heart was still anxious.

It was just because he received an order from the Elven Court in a special way, telling him to abandon his previous task and quickly rush back to the Elven Court.

The man knew in his heart that this was not an order for him alone, but all the other elves who came out to carry out the execution, and they had to rush back to the elven settlement.

The hidden meaning behind this order made the man feel anxious and shudder.

He and several of his companions are all absolutely loyal to the Elven King, and directly obey the Elven King's elite. And this mission, it is to scatter out and find Princess Alice, who has secretly escaped alone.

In the face of the external and internal troubles of the abyssal creatures and the Holy See of Light, there is a group of people led by the eight elders in the clan who are making waves, as the leader of the elf clan, the elf king's life is very difficult.

However, he still has to send out this elite force in his hands. Just because Princess Alice is very involved, it must not be overlooked.

However, they came out for a while, but in human society, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, not only failed to find the princess, but also couldn't find even a little useful information.

At this time, the Elven King asked them to give up their mission and return to the Elven Court!

Without going into details, the man, who was the henchman of the Elf King, could also guess that it must be that the situation of the Elf Clan was extremely serious and that they needed to go back to help.

Even if you have to give up looking for Princess Alice.

Thinking deeper, the man even had a conjecture that made him tremble: the elven king may feel that it is impossible to do anything, and the fall of the elven royal court is inevitable, so he simply pushes the boat down the river and allows Alice to fall into human society, so as to leave a trace of blood for the elven royal family.

"No, it won't be like this! There is an elf king in the elf royal court, as well as the great elder, the second elder, a total of three saint-level powerhouses, all together, who can stop its sharpness. The warriors below are also well-trained and strong, and they are among the best elite troops in the entire Oss continent. With such strength, who can destroy my elf clan! ”

The man silently cheered himself up, as if comforting himself. The hand subconsciously moved, and the panting steed dragged its tired body, and slowly began to accelerate again.

"Huh?"

At this moment, the man who was thinking about his heart suddenly noticed that there was a group of people not far in front of him, slowly walking along the main road.

And one of them looks very familiar.

……

Anthony and Arlina rode on their horses, walking side by side unhurriedly.

Anthony turned his head to look at Princess Arlinna's pretty side and said, "My Royal Highness, don't you have anything to say?" ”

Arlina turned her head to look at him, a puzzled look on her face.

"What do you want me to say?"

The ball was kicked back again, and Anthony frowned and said, "Don't you have a question for me?" Like, what do I want to do? ”

After all, it was after ten years of sleep that he finally woke up. The princess's behavior is too normal, normal is like ordinary people sleeping beautifully, this is the biggest abnormality. Coupled with the tragic scene that happened to the royal family of the Glorious Empire before she fell asleep......

Seeing the princess talking and laughing, and in a good mood, it was hard for Anthony not to worry.

Arina smiled playfully and asked in a nonchalant tone, "Well, what do you want to do?" ”

Anthony was speechless.

Looking at his helpless expression, Arlina smiled slightly, put away her playful gesture, and said formally: "Anthony, what you are doing now, and what you want to do, some I know, some I can guess." But I would say that none of that really matters. If you want to do anything, just let it go and do it with all your might, I will definitely support you, and I don't need you to worry about me. What you're doing now, I can't help anymore. But, at the very least, I can do it so that I don't distract you and don't hold you back. ”

She looked at Anthony's handsome face seriously, and there was firmness in her eyes in addition to tenderness.

"Really, don't worry about me. Perhaps, I'm a little stronger than you think. ”

Anthony smiled, relaxed.

Yes, the princess Arlina he knew was a woman who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside. All along, I underestimated her and thought of her too weakly.

"What is not dragging its feet, between you and me, do you still need to say this?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the tenderness and tacit understanding were all in plain sight.

Anthony and Arina's romance spread widely on the continent of Oss and was talked about by people. However, what is very different from ordinary lovers is that from the time they met and fell in love to the confirmation of each other as lifelong partners, there were almost no scenes of falling in love.

From the two meeting in a remote town, fighting monsters in the primeval forest, they formed a fighting friendship, and each other left a clear shadow in each other's hearts.

After two years, the man and woman reunited again, but it was Anthony who took the initiative to find her, opening a way for Princess Alina and the royal family behind her to survive.

Since then, Anthony has worked hard to plan the layout, personally go into battle, command the army, break through many obstacles, and reverse the decline of the glorious empire little by little. In the end, he finally quelled the civil strife, drove the invading Riga Empire out of the country, and counterattacked the past.

When the battle was going well and the whole country was jubilant, the Holy Empire, the number one power in the continent, forcibly intervened without warning, and then there was the Holy See of Light, the glorious royal family was in turmoil, and finally even the high-ranking God of Light stretched out his hand from the divine realm.

Along the way, the battle has always been with us, and there has never been a time to stop. Anthony and Arina don't have the luxury of time to put everything behind and fall in love. There are no sweet words, no mountain alliances and sea vows, and neither of the two young men and women who are secretly in love declare this relationship, but they can clearly feel each other's hot heartbeat.

The seeds of love in the hearts of the two took root and sprouted under the watering of the war, thrived, and grew into a towering tree.

Looking back, the love between Anthony and Arina was less sweet, less flowers and wine, and perhaps too bland.

But this arduous process of overcoming difficulties and dangers together, snuggling up to each other, and supporting each other has made the heart-to-heart connection between the two closer and more unbreakable.

Katie, the magical girl who follows the group, seems to be casually admiring the surrounding scenery, but in fact, at least half of her mind is on Anthony and Arina in front.

Seeing the tacit understanding between the two, Katie's heart was slightly sour, and an indescribable emotion secretly appeared.

Is this what it's like to be out of love?

No, I have never been in love with my teacher, so I can talk about any broken love. At most, it's a crush, unrequited love.

The other girl in the team is much more lively and jumpy, although Princess Alice was rescued from the tiger's mouth by Anthony, which is completely in line with the hero's routine of saving beauty. However, due to Princess Arlina's existence, she only had a crush on this good-looking young man, but she did not go further and further down the road like Katie.

The only thing that can make this grinning, heartless princess occasionally fall silent is the crisis that the elves are facing.

Just as she was thinking, Alice suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice in her ears.

"Princess Alice, is that you?"
