Chapter 23: Determination
In the room, Sheila was slightly surprised.
Because although her relationship with Medea is not cold, she is not a close girlfriend who can have a tea party at night, not to mention that she came to the door in the middle of the night, obviously to talk about something that no one else could know.
Is there something that no one else can know?
Then, Medea's next sentence made Sheila's face change:
"Theodora, you like Asker, don't you?"
"Like?" Sheila hurriedly sneered, and then realized that her tone was too stiff, and hurriedly sneered again in a contemptuous, disdainful, "I don't bother to argue with this kind of question" again, "Just him? ”
"Oh." Medea stretched out her voice, "That's great. Since you don't like him, it doesn't matter to you even if he disbands the mercenary group and never returns, right? ”
Gone?
Sheila's ears immediately pricked up.
Of course Asker knows that she is leaving, but never to return? No, didn't Mi'er say that he and I would have a daughter! Wait, could it be him and me before he left......
"No, you don't even know what he's leaving, do you?" Medea asked with an exaggerated expression of "Isn't it, you".
"Of course I do." Sheila replied calmly, "But how can you be sure he won't come back?" ”
"It's simple, Mi'er has already observed the timeline." Medea said leisurely, "There is a high probability that there will be no return, and only a small possibility of coming back." ”
With Sheila's intelligence, Medea was instantly understood:
In other words, Mi'er's original statement that "Asker and I have a daughter" is based on the fact that "Asker will come back"; However, there is a possibility that "Aske will not return", and according to Medea, it seems that the probability is even greater than that of "will return......
How can that work! He, he, why didn't he come back!!
Seeing Sheila's face change slightly, Medea was both relieved and a little subtle.
Relieved, of course, because Sheila really likes Asker, so there is also the possibility of teaming up. Otherwise, she would have been able to recover after becoming a demigod herself, and it didn't matter to her whether Asker left or not.
The reason for the taste, of course, is because I deliberately used this to order her, and I had a weird feeling of helping her NTR herself inexplicably...... Needless to say, the old lady has made such a big sacrifice, and this time she has to keep him no matter what!
"I have an idea." Medea said, "How about we leave him behind?" ”
"What do you mean?" Sheila asked warily, "Leave him behind, how?" ”
"It's simple." Medea said, "When he was about to leave, we attacked him and restrained him." ”
"You're betraying the team." Sheila said.
"He's going to disband the team and abandon us, what do I care about this team for?" Medea sneered.
"I have to admit that what you said does have some truth." Sheila was subconsciously a little moved, but then objected, "Don't forget, if you simply count the combat power, even if we join forces at the same level, it is estimated that we will not be able to defeat him." ”
"You don't have to worry about that." Medea said confidently, "I will put certain restrictions on him. ”
"Restrictions?"
"yes, how?" Medea smiled and asked, "Do you want to join forces with me?" ”
Sheila hesitated slightly, then nodded hesitantly.
……………………
What's wrong with me?
The next day, until noon, Sheila's mind was full of the conversation she had with Medea the previous night.
She was a little strangely confused, and she didn't know why she was so confused last night that she agreed to join forces with Medea.
Could it be that she was influenced by the law of manipulation?
No, no, I have a psychic talisman from my grandfather, and it is impossible to be tricked without realizing it, but ......
After reflecting on herself again, Sheila had to admit that she couldn't deceive herself anymore.
She really didn't want Asker to leave.
What is he barely worthy of, he is the best candidate for the co-emperor of the empire, and he can work with him to restore the glory of the ancient Solomon Empire...... It's all fake, it's just an excuse I made up to deceive myself, and I just used it to satisfy my meaningless self-esteem.
When she was 14 years old, her father, Emperor Constantine, once took her to the Lord Chancellor Romulus and asked her what she thought of the young man. At that time, Theodora understood what her father meant, and proudly replied that she did not like this man.
Her father only smiled meaningfully at the time, and did not introduce her to anyone else.
She hadn't understood it at the time, but Sheila now understood it completely.
Because my father at that time had already seen clearly, he didn't know what love was.
Love...... For the elite, especially those who play politics, it is actually a luxury word. Because political power schemes require a lot of exchange and binding of interests, and marriage is one of the best tools to use.
If the Eastern Solomonic Empire had not been destroyed, she would have chosen a male in her camp to marry her, in order to strengthen her dominance as emperor.
As for whether you like each other or not, it doesn't matter, if you meet someone you really like in the future, just develop an extramarital affair directly, and everyone will turn a blind eye to it.
Of course, most of the unreliable foundations built on extramarital affairs are just pure desires, and cannot be true love.
Later, her father did not continue to introduce her to other men, probably hoping that she would reap her own love, rather than marrying a man she didn't know for utilitarian purposes.
However, from the unexpected death of her father to the fall of Constantinople, her life completely changed from the path of "Theodora" to "Sheila":
It's a wilderness trail away from political struggles, and like in classic fantasy, it's filled with all sorts of mutations, monsters, teammates, and adventures.
And people who like it.
"Asker......," Sheila muttered involuntarily.
"Huh?" Asker's voice rang out next to him.
Sheila jerked before she remembered that it was still training time.
Since he and Sidlifa are currently at the bottom of the team, Asker has been taking turns to open small stoves for them recently.
"Is there anything you didn't understand about what I just said?" Asker asked, crossing his arms.
"No ......" Sheila subconsciously lied, in fact, she was so distracted just now that she didn't hear what Asker said.
"Uh-huh, alright, now you can practice as I say." Asker nodded.
Sheila:..................
"Asker!" She stared at the regimental leader's face, and suddenly a strange courage rose from her chest, and reached out to grab his arm.
"Huh?" Aske was puzzled.
"If, I mean if......" Sheila asked in a low voice, a little shy and shy, a little apprehensive and uneasy, "if I give up my dream of returning to China...... Are you willing to give up your dream of going home and stay in this world to walk with me? ”
"What are you talking about?" Asker was a little puzzled, touched her head helplessly, and joked, "What's the matter, my majesty?" Why don't you want to return to China all of a sudden? Are you trying to bring tears to the eyes of the loyal Solomon Guard? ”
"No......" Sheila shook her head sluggishly, and gradually became speechless.
So, when did the dream of recovering the country that I once had in my heart become less important?
Is there a goal you want to achieve?
It seems that last night he promised correctly, and he still has to join forces with Medea.
"Asker." Sheila also made up her mind.
"Hmm."
"I'm sorry." She smiled beautifully, "Actually, I like you, since a long, long time ago. ”
Asker: ???
