Chapter 1716: Your Choice (I'm Hungry and Gnawing My Claws)

"You, what are you talking about, Saber!"

Hearing this, Louise's eyes widened in surprise and she looked at the red ponytail.

"How can you say such a thing?!"

"Of course I can say this, although I have come at your call, but I am still an oracle, and mortals who desire to pray to the gods and receive their help must have something to give. After all, this is not a particularly dangerous state of affairs right now, so I will not be charitable at the moment. ”

"Dangerous situation, now that the enemy is about to hit our royal city, isn't it dangerous?"

"Of course not."

Red Ponytail glanced at Louise.

"This danger is only for the top and the ruling class of your country, and perhaps after the collapse of Torristin, you will be arrested, you will be executed, but this is normal. I will keep you safe, but this country is not in my mind, because wars between countries, annexations are normal. Unless the other party wants to kill all the citizens of the entire Torlistine, and there is no one left, in which case it is considered a humanitarian crisis, I will take action for free. But now ........."

As he spoke, the red ponytail pointed at Angela.

"She just wants to keep her family's rule over the country and keep the top of the country, and this is her desire, and she will have to pay a price."

"How can you say that Her Royal Highness is here to protect the citizens of this country!"

"That's a good point, but I'm not from this country."

Red Ponytail shrugged her shoulders and looked at Angela again.

"So, what about your decision?"

"Her Royal Highness the Princess........."

Louise couldn't convince Red Ponytail, so she looked at Angeletta for help, and Angeletta smiled at Louise's words, and then she opened her hands.

"See this wedding dress? Lois? ”

"Yes........."

"You should know why I wore this wedding dress."

"To marry the king of Germania and conclude a military alliance."

"yes, but it doesn't make sense anymore."

With that, Ann Rietta looked at the red ponytail.

"I am willing to give everything for the country, including myself. Whether it's marriage or life, as long as I can do it for this country, I will do it. And, if I had to choose........."

As she spoke, Angela smiled slightly.

"In any case, a cute little sister is better than a barbarian king."

"Your Highness.........

Hearing this, Louise was already well aware of Ann Rietta's choice. Originally, the marriage to the king of Germania was nothing more than a political marriage, in order to contain Albiang's offensive ambitions through an alliance between the two countries. But now, since the other party has reached his doorstep, it doesn't matter whether the marriage knot or not.

"Looks like you've made a decision?"

"Yes."

"Good."

Hearing Ann Rietta's answer, the red ponytail nodded, and then snapped her fingers.

The next moment, the surrounding scenery immediately changed.

Surrounded by a sea of clouds, white platforms and countless minarets appeared in front of Angela and Louise, and the white gates reached into the sky, and the whole Supreme Heaven showed unparalleled magnificence and splendor under the light of the sun. Stunned at all this, Ann Lietta and Louise both widened their eyes in surprise and couldn't say a word.

"This is the Divine Realm, the Supreme Heaven, the City of the Gods."

Hearing this, An Lietta and Louise reacted at this time, and hurriedly knelt down in fear, if they were originally suspicious of the identity of the red ponytail, then the current scene was enough for them to completely dispel the doubts in their hearts.

It seems that after going back, it is time to build a gate at the entrance of the Heavenly Dao Palace.

Looking at the two kneeling in front of him, the red ponytail nodded secretly in his heart, indeed, forcing a grid can come in handy in many cases!

"So......... Ann Rietta. Morality. Torlistine. ”

"Yes!"

Hearing the red ponytail's words, An Rietta also trembled her body and hurriedly responded. Although the voice of the red ponytail sounded no different from that of a normal day, it was filled with an unimaginably powerful coercion. So much so that just hearing her call her name made Angeletta's heart feel like her heart was going to stop.

Is this the power of God?

"What is your wish?"

"I......... I hope Toristine will always be in peace........."

"Leave the dream to the dream."

"Yes, I'm sorry........."

Angela lowered her head again in fright, then she thought for a moment, then looked up.

"I, I want Toristine to be strong!"

"You figured it out?"

"Yes......... I figured out that Toristine was too weak, and because of that, we had to compromise and make a lot of painful decisions. But if we can become a strong country, then ......... At least not again! ”

At this moment, Angeletta has been completely connected, and she felt that she had to compromise for the sake of peace, whether it was watching her beloved crown prince being killed, or marrying the king of Germania, at that time, Angeletta was convinced that "this is for Torlistine".

But now she understands why she had to make this choice.

Why did those ministers still look trembling at this juncture?

At the end of the day, there's only one reason.

That's that Torlistine is too weak.

Compared to Gaul and Albion, Torristine is simply rural. Although the nobility and royal family here are talking about dignity, glory, and prestige.

But............ As Saber says, what is the use of these when the sword is added?

"It's not easy, it's very difficult, are you sure you've made that choice?"

"Yes, I've decided."

Angela nodded again.

"Are you sure? Remember, this is not the same thing as a political marriage or making a sacrifice, a political marriage like that, you just lie in bed and close your eyes and you don't have to worry about anything. It's the same with making sacrifices, whether living or dying, pain is a momentary thing. But if you want to survive, if you want to work hard to become stronger, you can rely on long-term efforts, which can take years, decades, or even longer. And what you need to face is the longing, pain and anger of countless people. You see, your ideas are not in the interests of many people, and many will see you as an enemy, not only from other countries, but also from your subjects. ”

"Why?"

Hearing this, Louise asked suspiciously.

"Isn't it a good thing that the country has become strong?"

"But there is a price to be paid for becoming stronger."

Red Ponytail stared at Louise.

"It's like if you work out, you learn magic, you want to get stronger, do you have to pay a price? You need to give up something in order to get something. I can only show you the direction and the method, but it's up to you whether you want to do it or not. ”

“……………”

Louise stopped talking for a moment, and she remembered that Saber had done the same to herself, and it stood to reason that she, as an oracle, could easily teach herself magic. But Saber just taught her how to see her power correctly, how to use it, and then relied entirely on her own efforts.

Louise remembered what Saber had said.

"It's your own business, so you make your own choices, and if you want to go on like this, I don't care."

But I'm not indifferent!

It is because of this that Louise will work hard to learn the art of the Void Ghost and have the power she has now.........

In fact, Louise wondered a long time ago, if there really was a god in this world, would that god really grant the wishes of others? If you can fulfill your wishes simply by praying, what is the effort of those people to do so?

And now, Louise understands that although she doesn't know what the other gods are like, the Saber she has summoned clearly has her own methods, she will show you the way, give you the way, and help you gain power, but whether or not you achieve your goals and desires is still up to you.

Although this may not seem as omniscient as the legend suggests, Louise finds such a god more acceptable.

"So you understand? Ann Rietta? ”

"I ........."

At this moment, Angeletta hesitated, unlike Louise, she could clearly hear the meaning. After all, no matter what, she is also the princess of the royal family.

Because of this, Anrietta couldn't help but be afraid.

"Your Highness the Princess?"

Sensing Ann Rietta's strange appearance, Louise couldn't help but look at her worriedly, while Ann Rietta took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

"I ............... I do. ”

"Very well, then the contract is established."

Red Ponytail nodded.

"Do you know what to do next?"

"This ..............."

"Louise and I will stop that army, and then what?"

"Then ........."

"To be a huge nation, territory, people and wealth are essential."

"Do you mean to let Torristeen send troops to conquer other countries?"

Louise was dumbfounded, and Red Ponytail nodded.

"That's right, there's no pie falling from the sky, so you can reach for it yourself if you want to. Luckily, isn't this a pie-in-the-sky opportunity? ”

"You mean Albion?"

Hearing this, An Rietta also reacted immediately.

"However, the difference in strength between us and Albiang ............"

"That's when I'm on the scene, otherwise why would I have to make a pact with you? I gave you the strength, the method, the goal, and then it is up to you to make your own choices whether you want to achieve it. ”

As she spoke, the red ponytail looked at Ann Rietta.

"You make a choice, and you have to live with the consequences."
