Verse 566: In the Dream (1)
Another dreamless night.
When the sun was high, the light shone into the room through the curtains, and Faye, who had returned to the present world from his dream, sighed in his heart.
Madame Gayat sighed inwardly as she sat up, and she got up and walked to the window, and looked out from the second floor of the manor, where the female guards from the Church of Love were still standing at the entrance to the manor.
The towers within the outer walls of the manor are also guarded by the rangers of the Great Woodland, who are excellent scouts with eagles or panthers as companions.
And in the huge courtyard, the aristocratic girls from Farol and Sidney are being systematically trained as the old housekeepers of the Morvis family.
Today is another ordinary day.
Faye finally lowered the curtains, and she walked to the door, where the Toby Rabbit maid had already opened the door for her, and they would never let their clients do it themselves, having already heard the footsteps.
"What about my sisters."
"Downstairs, ma'am."
Hearing the news, Faye sighed inwardly - the young lady had been full of sorrow lately, because she could not sleep, and her sisters had already had contact with their offspring.
It is said that this is because in a later timeline, one of Cross's descendants invented a potion that could be consumed to travel back in time through the ancestral genes recorded in their genes, witnessing what their ancestors had experienced in the past.
Cross asked the descendant, and he said that, normally, it was just an immersive entry into the past, which had long been frozen in history, but for some reason, the children of House and Gayat were able to have direct contact with their ancestors.
To be precise, it's their generation, their children can't, and neither can their parents.
Faye wondered what a cruel picture fate had drawn and why her sisters had been able to see their offspring, but she had never been able to.
Be...... Is it broken?
On more than one occasion, in the uninhabited corridors, Faye asked himself if war or epidemic would finally cut off the blood between Faye and Marin in the future.
But no, those children said that Marin and Faye's branch had been living in Regensburg even in the most distant future known, and that their seven bloodlines had always been in contact with each other by blood, and that there had been no cases of bloodlines ever severing their step-sons in historical records.
The children of the Cross family also helped to ask, and the descendants of Faye basically only traced the generation of Faye's eldest son and eldest daughter, and they didn't know why.
Maybe it's a matter of luck.
Cross's child said.
Although Faye was indeed persuaded by this comforting word, after all, her sisters still have only one or two children.
And if Faye and Marin's children have a difficult child, then if it is passed down all the way, there may indeed be a situation that cannot be traced back to her generation.
Really, I don't know what the future holds.
Sighing, Faye came to the stairs, and as she walked down the stairs, she saw the sisters sitting in a row on the sofa.
"Good morning, pot-bellied women." As the head of the family, she laughed.
Because she knew how her sisters would fight back against her.
"What are you laughing at, you are also a pot-bellied woman!" Everyone on the couch laughed in unison.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Faye has been in a better mood lately.
After eating, Nova was enjoying dessert when she noticed that Faye was chatting with Maya.
Seemingly in a good mood made her feel a little better.
Although she hadn't been able to see her offspring until now, thanks to everyone's enlightenment and analysis by Cross and Rivo, her mood finally improved, and she hadn't seen her lose her soul for at least a few days.
"Haven't Cross and Rivo come back yet?" Jessica asked.
"Cross is in Fort Carter, and her father is still slumped in bed. Rivo was running her potion group, she was frail, and I was thinking about whether or not to ask Matilda to help her. Faye replied, looking at Nova at the same time: "Nova, how is your unit training, you need me to find some instructors from Sidney, or ask Marin to find some instructors from the north." β
"That's not necessary, the training manual that Marin left for the military has been tried for a month, and it works well, and my nobles even use this method to train their children." Nova smiled and shook her headβnot that she looked down on these northern instructors, but because the nobles of the Farol military were now obsessed with the manuals that Marin had brought them, and in their opinion, this method was a secret in the hands of some small families, and now they used it to train ordinary soldiers.
It's really too extravagant.
It's funny, they don't know how Marin is arming the warriors of the north and east who are fighting against Chaos.
To be honest, Nova has never seen such a generous entrepreneur as Marin, and the Thalaman idiom of benevolence seems to be tailor-made for Marin.
Of course, Nova understands that as long as the two hot spots in the north and east can complete their defense plans, Chaos will not be able to cross these two areas and pose a threat to Sidney and Faroor.
This is probably what Marin often says about spending money to buy peace, in Nova's view, although the price is large, it is not unacceptable, after all, life is priceless.
"The officers under my father's name also said the same thing, as the soldiers of the experimental company, the average weight increased by 11 pounds in a month, the average physical strength increased by 40%, and the one with the largest increase in weight-bearing capacity increased by 40 pounds, and now they are preparing to promote it throughout the army, after all, the improvement of the soldiers' physical fitness means that they can live longer." Faye smiled and added: "I think Marin's method is right, if the soldiers don't have the strength, what can they do when they go to the battlefield." β
Nova was about to pick up the topic when she saw the door pushed open by a female paladin from the Church of Justice: "Lady Nova, there is your messenger. β
"Ah, well, I'll come to meet this messenger of mine and see what bad news he will have." Nova got up to say goodbye to her sisters and walked to the door.
The tired-looking messenger stood there, dressed in his military uniform and looking like he had been riding all the way from his horse.
"It's hard work, what's the problem?"
"Yes, my Queen, our army has won a victory, a great victory, in the territory of the Northern Kingdom, and together with their allies, they have held off a major offensive of Chaos." The messenger said excitedly, "It was confirmed afterwards that more than 100,000 Chaos Believers and Chaos Demons were killed. β
"Great, what did Marshal Kusk of the military say with the General Staff."
"They are working on a charter for awards, and they heard that His Royal Highness Prince Marin is on a southern tour, and the General Staff hopes that His Royal Highness the Prince can present the medal on his behalf." At this point, the messenger looked at his queen: "My queen, what do you think?" β
"No problem, I will tell my husband, he will definitely go to award medals, that is, I hope this day can be sooner, so many medals will be issued to every soldier, this is not something that my husband can solve alone." Faye smiled and nodded, it seemed that the big bosses of the army finally agreed with Marin.
"Of course, this will not be a problem, Your Excellency the Marshal and the General Staff have already commissioned the foundry of Rongma to expedite the production of medals."
With that, the messenger saluted his queen without leaving any more reason, and then left with another paladin leading him away.
Standing outside the door, Nova was almost singing with joy - see, my father, our kingdom army is now even able to win the battle against the Chaos Demons! The Duchy of Farol will definitely become a powerful country in the western human world with the efforts of me and Marin, and our children will definitely become the most virtuous kings under our teaching, and we will definitely become the guardians of order against chaos in this world.
The dejected queen is persuaded by the paladin guards to return to the house, and is surprised to find that her sister Faye is asleep.
She fell asleep.
Jessica pointed to Faye on the couch and said with her lips.
I see, let's go to the side hall and rest.
Nova nodded, she took the blanket, covered Faye, and left the living room with the sisters.
But don't wake Faye, or she'll cool the entire manor by getting out of bed - yes, yes, Faye has recently awakened her psionic powers.
And when she is in a bad mood, the nearby area, including the manor, can cool down by about five degrees.
With this psionic strength, Nova felt that only Maya among the sisters could fight against it.
As for Nova herself...... Probably only responsible for being beaten, or being beaten.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Faye opened her eyes, and the young lady, who was a little puzzled, looked at everything in front of her, because this was not her manor.
Sitting up from the rocking chair, she noticed a change in her body, the original delicate and smooth skin was gone, but the dry and dull skin, like ...... No, now she is just an old man.
What's wrong with me?
Faye stood up, and she looked at the somewhat familiar, yet very unfamiliar room in front of her.
Here it is...... Here it should be...... This is Fort Carter, which belongs to her annex, but the furniture is different and the style looks different.
As she got up, the blanket on her knees fell to the ground.
Leaning against the wall, she came to the mirror and saw a ...... Emaciated self.
It's not like the living self at all.
It's not me...... With that in mind, Faye heard footsteps coming from across the hallway.
She turned to look at the child who appeared in the doorway, with a face as cute as Marlin, big dark eyes, a small nose, and a cynical smile like Marlin.
"Who are you?" The kid asked.
Faye opened her mouth, and then it occurred to her that she was a lich.
I also want to know who you are.
Eventually, psionic whispers rang in the child's head, and a curious expression was substituted as the child looked at Faye with a wary face.
I ...... I'm Faye, Faye Mowis.
Faye tried to make herself laugh, but she knew that her body ...... It shouldn't be said that the body is completely unable to laugh.
This is the corpse of a lich, I don't know how long it has been, I don't know what era this is, and I don't know who the child in front of me will be.
ββ¦β¦ I'm Molinheim Gayat, and you're Faye Mowis? Sidney unites the most famous princess of the Morvis dynasty? The boy was dressed in clothes that didn't look like they were in Faye's time, and he pulled a small mechanical ...... out of his pocket It's like something in Marin's hands.
He seemed to be looking for something, and then he found it, and looking up, he looked at Faye: "Can you name at least five of your companions of the same era?" β
Faye quickly called out the sisters' names, and then she thought about it and gave Lulu their names as well.
Seeing that the child still had a suspicious expression on his face, his eyes widened: "Even you Lulu Hagelberg know that this is just a name that has been passed down in the family...... Are you really Faye Mowis? β
The child looked at Faye and tried to get some clues from her face, but Faye couldn't laugh, couldn't cry, couldn't even pull the muscles of his face.
She could only nod her head and look at the child in front of her
I am really Faye Mowis, whose child are you, Nova? Or Lulu?
"No, I am your descendant, my ancestral grandmother, I ......" the child said this, tears welling up from the corners of his eyes: "I, I have finally met you!" β
Seeing the child crying, Faye staggered to her offspring, struggling to bend her legs, and then stretched out her hands, trying to wipe the tears from the child's face, but not wanting her body to pollute the child.
Why are you crying, my child?
"Everyone says that the bloodline of Faye Mowis is tainted, because no one has ever seen the apex, and the other branches of the family have records of you, but none of us, you and the descendants of the Anonymous Clan, have ever been able to see you."
The child gradually stopped crying, and as he looked at Faye, he stretched out his hand: "My grandmother, what's wrong with you. β
I ...... I had just fallen asleep, and when I woke up I realized that I had taken possession of the shell.
Faye was a little embarrassed, but more moved, because she saw her offspring for the first time, and the feeling of psionic energy made him feel that the child in front of him was indeed her and Marin's bloodline, this is his and her descendants, passed down for I don't know how many generations, but it is indeed her and Marin's descendants.
"Yes, is it the real you!" The child became excited: "Is it you from the past?!" β
It's me, and don't touch me, it's a lich shell, it's a xenomorph.
ββ¦β¦ Patriarch, the apex of our family, who is it? The child asked, looking at Faye.
Β·β¦β¦ Marin Gayat.
Faye gave Marin's name, and she looked at the child, wanting to wait for a miracle.
But reality does not seem to have such a thing as a miracle, the child was puzzled for a moment, he seemed to be able to sense the fluctuation of spiritual energy, but he shook his head: "Ancestor, you just ...... Did you say anything? β
