Chapter 42: 1-41 A glimmer of hope

College, library single room.

"I'm not to blame you for this." Erin gently stroked Phyllis's head and comforted him.

Originally, she was comforting Phyllis in the same way that her father used to comfort her, but later, she touched it and felt that Phyllis's hair felt very good, so she couldn't stop.

"If something goes wrong, I'll be sent home." Phyllis said, "I'm sorry that the whole thing is because of me, but I have not yet figured out how to compensate you...... I'll pay it back slowly when I get back to New Cruz or the Holy See. ”

"No, no, Phyllis can't go back." Erin grabbed Phyllis's sleeve and was a little reluctant, "If you go back, my marriage will be ......"

"Shh Phyllis reminds Erin not to speak.

Sure enough, a footstep slowly approached, and from this angle it should be just enough to hear them talking.

"I didn't say I was going to tell about it, did I?" At this time, Galina walked up to the two of them.

"Her Highness Galina." Phyllis stood up and saluted Galina.

"If only you called me Galina." "Although you are hiding your identity, now that I know your true identity, I can't be too contemptuous of you. ”

"I'm sorry." Phyllis said.

"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry." "I haven't been saying thank you all this time, but now that everything is clear, I can finally say thank you." ”

"This is my reason." Irene said, "I unilaterally wanted to break the marriage contract with Prince Edward, and Prince Edward agreed, he will find a way to convince them that the royal family side, and I will win the Sky Courtyard Cup, get the title of royal reward, and then take advantage of that time to ask for a fief." ”

"Dissolution of the marriage?" Galina's eyes suddenly came to life when she heard this word, "Why did you break off the marriage?" ”

"I don't want to be bound by a marriage contract, I don't want to be used as a tool for marriage, I want to get my own fiefdom and freedom. I'm going to build my own order. Erin told Garina about her dreams that she had never spoken.

To build an order of her own, she thinks that the order of the sea pine is pathological, but she can't change the whole sea pine, and she doesn't want to have contradictions and estrangement with Brother Torrin, so she needs a piece of her own territory to practice her ideals herself.

"The reason why the Sea Pine Kingdom was able to gain a foothold in this place is because of the ancestral teachings, do you want to go against the ancestors?" Garina exclaimed.

"The reason why the Sea Pine Kingdom can gain a foothold in this place is not because of the ancestral teachings, but because of its strength. Phyllis is humble and powerful, proving that character and strength are not particularly directly related. Erin said, "And the ancestral motto of the Sea Pine Kingdom is to be competitive, not tyrannical, and it is the spirit in his bones that he doesn't want to lose to anyone, not because he is better than others, he is complacent and arrogant, and he can't wait to beat everyone around him!" ”

Garina was stunned when she heard this, she had never thought of such a thing.

It's the same for everyone else, everyone thinks that the reason why they are bullied is because they are not strong enough, they are not talented or they don't work hard enough, some people choose to work harder, and some people choose to succumb to talent.

No one ever wondered if there was something wrong with this system, because it did ensure that some people could continue to train and try to become stronger for the sake of something that was vain.

But Phyllis and Erin said differently, there are many, many people in the whole world, each country has its own creed, including the Holy See, everyone has a reason to become stronger.

"Competitiveness doesn't mean being arrogant, Galina, just like I am." Irene said to Galina, "I learned divine magic from Phyllis, not so that one day I could pay back all the bullying I had received, but in the hope that one day, my children would be able to work for the things and ideals they liked in the land of the sea pines, not to be bullied or to bully others." ”

Jialina didn't know what to say for a while, she just felt that all of a sudden, Erin became like someone she didn't know.

It seems that this person has grown a lot in a trance, and both his strength and thinking have improved by leaps and bounds.

Is this the power of Prince Edward? But why did the two of them dissolve their marriage?

"Why?" Jia Lina subconsciously asked.

"Because ......," Erin thought she was asking why she had this dream, and was ready to answer what was in her mind.

"Why should the marriage be dissolved?" Garina interrupted Erin.

This time, Erin was stunned.

She really didn't know how to explain it, because it was Iroh who helped her grow, it was Iroh who helped her give birth to her ideals, and it was Iroh who helped her find herself, and Edward was a big liar she hated the most, and of course she was going to break off her engagement.

……

But what is this to say? Edward is not Edward, the Edward in front of you is actually a paladin of the Holy See, the exploits of slaying dragons and the great cause of killing Hydra were all done by him, and Prince Edward took it all while lying in the hospital?

No, it's okay to think about this kind of thing in your own mind, if you say it, Edward's whole personality will collapse, and it will bring endless disasters to Iroh at that time, which Irene can't imagine.

"Because the marriage contract is a bondage." Phyllis said, "Her Royal Highness Irene doesn't want to be bothered by this layer of bondage, in the same way, 'I' also have someone I like, and I don't have to fight for the throne with my sister, but I must be with the person I like about marriage." ”

This sentence made both of them stunned, and Carina looked Phyllis up and down, she thought to herself that you were holding Erin to kill Hydra with one hand not long ago, and now there are other people you like?

And Erin's mind is even more blank: does he have someone he likes? Who is it? Which lady in New Cruise? Or are they nuns of the Holy See? Is there any saint or any other kind of people in their Holy See......

"Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, can you tell me who your favorite person is?" Jialina asked timidly.

Anyway, it's not Erin, it's not Erin, what if I have a chance? She kept repeating it in her own mind.

"......" Phyllis also froze.

He knew that Edward had someone he liked, but he really didn't know who the person he liked was, let alone him, even Edward himself couldn't find out where that person was now, so he really didn't know how to answer if Phyllis answered now.
