Chapter 3: Endgame

After the night passed, everything was quiet again.

Yuiwa's army began to retreat.

And Dilan and the team in Bright Moon City began to clean up the mess left by the war.

Bodies piled up in the streets, and the rain washed over the ground and those who died in the war.

Destroyed houses stand under the sky, and the eaves drip water after heavy rains.

Residents began to return after hearing the signal of safety.

It's more about wailing and crying because of the loss of a family member or because of the damage to your belongings.

Robin looked at all this and sighed in his heart.

No war brings happiness to people.

Pain comes with growth.

Hopefully, the kingdom will be better in the future......

However, he frowned.

Although he did not witness the war between Salom and Olivia, he had a vague feeling that the whole kingdom would not be at peace from this day forward.

……

"Looks like it's over." The Rainbow Knight stood in the sunlight, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, and a smile surfaced.

The rainbow sword in her hand glowed with colorful light.

Opposite her, Lorel, the Lone Moon Knight, tilted his head in regret.

The two men were drenched, and each other's bodies were more or less scarred.

"yes, it's over."

Lorel flicked the Lone Moon Knife in his hand, and then walked down the stairs in a daze.

"I still haven't been able to beat you," Rainbow Knight laughed.

"At least not in the moonlight." She added.

"Does it matter?"

Lorel threw her a cold answer.

Dolores was slightly stunned, then reluctantly inserted the rainbow sword back into its scabbard.

Yes.

Nothing matters anymore.

The rivalry between her and Rorel was meant to be irrelevant.

For them, their fate is never in their own hands.

It was the thrilling battle in the King's Castle that really ruled the victory.

Although she doesn't know the specific process.

But, at least the results are already in front of you -

Shalom failed.

Dolores looked up proudly and walked in the direction of the King's Castle.

Ahead, the guards of the King's Castle were approaching.

They saluted silently and continued in the direction of the temple.

The pace is neat, and the military appearance is solemn.

Dolores stopped abruptly.

She turned around and quietly looked at the departing procession, frowning.

Perhaps, His Majesty the King also failed.

No one, including the temple, won.

"Hehe......"

Dolores laughed contemptuously.

"It's boring and ignorantβ€”

Politicians. ”

With her hands behind her back, she strode forward, toward the sun.

The light of dawn was sprinkled on her face, and there was not the slightest warmth in this coming winter.

"So."

Dolores let out a sigh.

"I hate politics."

……

After returning Raven to her quarters, Robin led the temple guards back to the temple.

Unexpectedly-

In the room he had left, several Grand Dukes were still seated.

Aojia's corpse lying on the ground exuded a smell of blood.

Kaye stood in the doorway, squeezing out a meaningful smile at him.

The Blue Lagoon Knight was still standing in the doorway against her.

Robin couldn't help but be a little confused.

How could Kaye and the guards at the gate keep them from slipping away from here?

When he poked his head into his head and saw the man at the head of the long table, he had an answer in his heartβ€”

Taking his place, Calista sat at the end of the long table, in her wheelchair.

The god of the kingdom of Itner, the face of the Lord was calm and serious.

"I see."

Calista lowered her hands arched over her chest and placed them gently on her knees.

"So that's it, my lords, and I beg you to go back and get ready. In a few days, there will be an answer. ”

The Grand Dukes breathed a sigh of relief as if relieved at Calista's words.

They exchanged glances with each other, then pushed away their chairs and stood up.

"Well, then, everything has a work to do."

Duke Gwen placed his hand on his chest and bowed slightly to Calista.

Duke Aiden and Duke Matilda also stood up and saluted the oracle.

Then the Grand Dukes, under the watchful eye of Calista, walked out of the gate with their own minions.

What's going on?

Robin looked at Kaye quizzically and asked quietly with his lips.

He was bewildered by the surprisingly calm attitude of the Grand Dukes and their conversation with Calista.

The squire Kaye smiled bitterly, his brow furrowed, and shrugged helplessly.

"I made a deal with them."

Calista's voice came from inside.

She covered her knees with the blanket, straightened it out, and folded her hands over it.

"Come in, that's what I'm going to tell you."

Hearing the oracle's words, Robin swept his trouser leg with his hand and stepped forward.

The light in the room is much better than at night.

The dawn shone through the skylight and onto the statue of the god, shrouded in a large pillar of light.

The entire temple room is sacred.

Robin pulled out a chair and sat down beside Calista.

The other party raised his head slightly, calmly staring into his eyes.

It's like an old mother who spoils her children.

Although Calista looks young on the outside, like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

But after all, she has lived for more than 100 years.

This strong contrast between age and appearance made Robin in a trance.

So much so that he didn't know what kind of eyes to look at her.

"A lot has happened in the time you've been away. I made a deal with them, with these old diehards. ”

Calista smiled.

Old Stubborn ......

Robin said to himself, where are they your opponents in terms of age?

"It's also a helpless move."

Calista said with a sad face, "The rebellion of Salom and Olga is destined not to end as well as they imagined. ”

She pursed her lips and smiled contemptuously, "I know Olivia too well, and I know Shalom too. Salom is benevolent and kind, and is not a king's fodder at all.

Olivia, on the other hand, seems to be gentle, but in fact she is strong and ruthless, and she is ruthless to herself and her enemies.

Plus her steel wrists and the mouth that can beat thousands of troops. ”

Calista raised her brow slightly, "This war was doomed to Shalom from the beginning. ”

Robin took a deep breath and nodded approvingly.

He didn't have enough time to understand what had happened before, but the results were there, and Salom failed and died.

Yuiwa's army was co-opted by Himma.

The king became the biggest winner.

"By doing so, they will only make the royal power even bigger." Calista said meaningfully, "Originally, Olivia had no excuse to rectify the lord system and rectify these archdukes who were gradually getting out of control.

Now it's a good thing, the Grand Duke rebelled, the royal city was broken, and countless casualties were imposed. ”

She raised an eyebrow, "Think about it, whose side will the people of the kingdom stand on after that?" ”

"And this time, she really has the excuse to sanction the Grand Dukes."

Calista said worriedly, "The kingdom is about to have a bloody storm. You and I can't stay out of it. ”
