On the morning of May 3, it was foggy in Lantkos.

Lycia woke up early in the morning, dressed in inconspicuous clothes and a pair of shoes that she didn't wear often.

He tied the bag containing Selene to his waist, then took out all the gold and potions from the box and put them in his backpack.

"It should be enough, that's all, go to Hailland Street to buy a few more clothes. Lycia nodded, checked that everything was brought with her, and then walked out of the dormitory.

Step into the fog with visibility of less than five meters.

"It's been a really nice day. "Good weather for covert operations. Lycia walked to the bottom of the hill and got into a pre-booked carriage to Hailland.

As usual, she wandered around the street twice before walking towards the bookstore in Fulindona.

Although she couldn't see the road clearly, Lycia felt that there were more people on Hail Street today than usual.

The occasional walk by made Lycia feel out of place on the streets of Hailland.

However, the eagerness to see Keith made Lycia not think further.

Maybe it's just because it's a day off.

Lycia thought so, and then, with a stride that was almost on the verge of jumping, she stepped into Fulindona's bookstore.

When she saw a man with his back to her, Lycia didn't think much of it, and she was pretty sure it was Keith.

"Slow down, slow down. Keith caught Lycia as she rushed towards him. "Don't cry, Lycia. ”

Keith had completely changed, he was much stronger, his skin was rough, and he had grown a beard.

The hot day wears a thick bearskin coat.

If it weren't for Lycia, no one would have recognized Keith as he was now.

"Brother, why are you so fat. Lycia felt her whole face sticky and hot as she leaned on Keith's tears, and she was separated a little.

"Eating seafood at the beach every day, can you not get fat. Flindona shoved back the dwarves with his hands.

Keith pulled two conches out of his bosom and handed one of them to Lycia. "We've made a conch circle that can spread sound over long distances, so Lycia, we can use conch conversations from time to time in the future. ”

Lycia took it and looked over and over again, but she couldn't see the location of the carving circle. "Is the circle engraved in it?"

Keith took the other one back into his arms. "Yes. But Lycia saw that he was visibly disappointed.

"This is made with the mother's heraldic stone, and we made a total of ten pairs. Keith whispered.

Flindona threw the ledger on the table. "Yes, Keith has two pairs, you sign your own name and keep the account. ”

"Lycia, you've suffered a lot during this time. Keith used his blood-soaked hand to help Lycia pin her hair behind her ear, for fear of scratching Lycia's skin, and Keith moved very lightly.

Lycia pouted, and immediately burst into tears.

It's like crying out the tears that I didn't cry before, the tears of losing my mother, the tears of murder, the tears of being despised by others, and even the tears of accidentally burning the back of my hand yesterday when I was making potions.

"My poor Lycia, she's almost going to cry out of her eyes. Keith turned to Fulindona, his tone relaxed for the first half of the day, and the last few words were audible for crying.

But Keith held back, he couldn't cry to his sister, Lycia was tired enough and shouldn't bear his negativity anymore.

=== (still after 2 hours)

"Daddy is really going to marry you to an old man?" Lycia held her hand against the door that Ash was about to close.

"What does he want to do, can he stop it?" Ash nudged Lycia and snorted a sneer through her nose. "You too, do you think that now that you are the heir to the title, your father will look up to you?"

Ash gave her a meaningful look and closed the door, as her relationship with her father seemed to have deteriorated since her mother's accident.

Lycia returned to her room, and before she could open the glowing circle, she felt something was wrong.

"Marianne?" Lycia rested her arm on the door, but didn't step in.

A strange force pushed her into the room, and the door slammed shut.

"The Eye of the Dead Sea. Before Lycia could finish the summons, she was struck in the temple by a force and fell to the ground.

"Give your life for our Lord!" a man wrapped in black cloth raised his sword in the air.

Asza had reminded her that the church would take action against her, and she thought it was a false accusation, but she didn't expect it to be an assassination.

Lycia looked at the disgust of the other party's empty strip, it was obvious that this person just wanted to kill her, and had no other feelings for her, she couldn't move, and a six-pointed star came out of Lycia's hand and successfully reached the top of the head of the black-clothed killer.

Lycia rolled around in his froze and summoned the Armored Knight without hesitation.

"Don't summon me in the room!!" The Armor Knight came with an armor, and Lycia's room obviously couldn't fit the horses.

"Help. "Hexagram's grip on the Black-Clad Killer was quickly broken by himself.

Lycia ran behind the armor.

The armored knight drew his sword and swung it lightly. "Men dare to hinder me. ”

Lycia heard the sound of her severed hand falling to the ground, and before she could exclaim, she smelled a pungent smell of smoke.

"Sure enough, it's someone who is in collusion with the darkness. The black-robed killer spread the black cloth, and the black cloth glowed with a circle of light that sparked flames from every corner of Lycia's room.

The Armored Knight's sword pierced the black-clad killer's chest, but it couldn't stop the strange fire from the circle.

"I, first give my life for my lord!" the black-clad killer rattled before he died. "Manifest the prototype in the light!"

Lycia found that her room was sealed, and the flames had licked the corners of her clothes, but no one noticed anything unusual about her room.

"What to do. ”

The Armored Knight used his bronze and iron body to help Lycia block some of the flames.

Lycia cut her skirt open and reduced the fabric.

"Give you my strength!" the armor knight's body, the entire suit of armor, spread out into multiple pieces under the firelight, and then attached to Lycia's body.

As if her hands and feet had been manipulated, Lycia could only feel the heat from the outside world, but she could not be hurt by the flames.

Then she was manipulated by her armor to run to the window, and then thumped to the unseen border. "No, I can't. ”

Although her skin was not injured, Lycia was about to choke on the smoke and fainted.

She was desperately thinking about the circle of enclosed space in her mind.

'What's the circle on the cloth?' in the flames, it's hard to keep a good rhythm of thought.

Lycia scurried around the room, but luckily the room was big enough.

After the Knight of Armor gave her the armor, there was no more sound.

"Absolute space!" Lycia suddenly thought of Caroline, who wielded an axe, and she had said that the highest level of magic drawn by the shield crest was to create an absolute space that could not be broken.

Only space that can be broken from the inside.

It was obviously a magic circle that could absolutely protect the safety of the space, but now it was used to imprison Lycia, because she was not the initiator, and she couldn't break this magic circle.

And the person who triggered this circle has now lost his breath, and it is estimated that it has been burned to the point that only the skeleton remains.

From the very beginning, he was determined to trap Lycia to death, leaving her with no way out.

Lycia was already a little exhausted, and smoke poured down her throat.

As she fainted, a pure silver glow rose from the pile of clothes that had been burned.

The silver undead thorns pierced through the flames and clinged to Lycia's wrists, pulling her up.

It was as if life had re-injected into Lycia's body, making her open her eyes again.

"Silver light?" Lycia's eyes were about to melt, and she barely managed to glance at the thorns wrapped around her wrists. "I can't die here!"

She stood up again, and the hand of armor grabbed and flung out the silver thorns in her consciousness, and the silver light split the flames in front of her, revealing a pattern of magic circles that continued to bubble with flames.

"Now, I'm your master!" Armor picked up the black cloth engraved with the shield coat of arms and more intricate patterns in Lycia's consciousness.

The circle dimmed in Lycia's hands.

Lycia walked towards the door, where she heard the servant's exclamations coming from outside the door.

"There's a fire in Mademoiselle's room!" said Marianne, who had not put on her shoes, and ran out of the maid's room.

Ash also smelled smoke, and her room was very close to Lycia.

The armor that had protected Lycia was gone, leaving Lycia lying outside the door, silver thorns and a black cloth beside her.

*

"Are you sure it's someone from the church?" Dimitrius quietly visited Lycia the day after she was injured.

Marianne, who was standing aside, raised her head as if she had seen nothing, and went out with the door.

"Yes, I'm sure. Lycia couldn't turn a blind eye to the church's movements, she couldn't sit still, though she didn't know why the church was determined to kill her.

"But the man who came to assassinate you, look up his identity. ”

Lycia was not too seriously injured, and when she heard this topic, she immediately became energetic. "What identity?"

"It's from the Thiel family. Dimitrius walked from the foot of Lycia's bed to the head of the bed, and looked down at her.

"But if it's just because of jealousy, you don't need such a big deal. Lycia analyzed.

The young heir to the empire nodded as well. "Yes. So, if you're sure you're from the church, then the Thiel family should be on the side of the church as well. ”

The Tyre family was the mother family of Dimitri, and he calmly classified his mother family into the church faction.

"It seems that it was the Church that controlled some terrible power that made my grandfather sacrifice me to cling to the Church. Dimitri said.

Lycia felt a little uncomfortable that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was talking to her so heartily, knowing too many royal secrets also meant that she had to bear more things.

"What do you think?" Dimitri looked up at Lycia's brow browbone.

"I agree with you. Apparently it was useless to fool around at this point, and Lycia responded to him very clearly.

The waiter at the door handed Lycia a half-section mask decorated with feathers.

"Masquerade?" Lycia took and fiddled with it curiously, the light on the second floor was dim, and there were standing people as far as the eye could see, and there were not many tables for dinner. "But I haven't eaten yet. ”

Genyo's hand crossed over Lycia's shoulder and took one as well. "Don't you know? I thought you didn't want to wear fancy clothes like I did, and I think you'd have a little bit of a snack when you eat, and if you eat. ”

Yes, her maid didn't tell her, she didn't tell her it was a masquerade, of course she forgot, maybe the whole banquet will hear everyone call her the pearl of the empire.

Speaking of the title of the Pearl of the Empire, it was two years ago, when Lycia was just fifteen years old, she was taken by her father, Duke Michau, to meet the emperor at that time, Dichaman.

Lycia remembers the scene vividly, the emperor's face was purple, similar to the size of the director of the teaching department in her previous life, the layers of fat squeezed the satin holiday dress all over the ravine, there was a gray bird at the top of the throne, the mung bean eyes were motionless, she thought it was a fake bird, but when the emperor cracked his pig's liver-colored lips and laughed, the bird also let out a giggling similar laughter, which was very weird.

She didn't like the palace, especially when the emperor called her the pearl of the empire and gave her a reward, and the smiles of the nobles standing around were mixed with flattery and contempt.

Lycia was fifteen years old when she died in her last life, and the extra years of life had made her much more sensible and understood the multi-layered meaning of her eyes and words.

If it weren't for the fact that the progress bar made her doubt the reality of this world, she was sure that she would be alive and well.

"Lycia, that civilian, he is actually a prefect. Linxi's sudden arrival interrupted Lycia's thoughts, and she had been observing Lycia's origins.

"Oh, prefect, the best of the commoners. Lycia analyzed it in her heart, and always felt that this person named Yuga was not simple.

"Lycia, you. Genyo looked at Lycia without saying anything, her full lips were pursed and slightly upturned, and there was a small pear vortex at the corner of her mouth on the left, and the imperial pearl that covered half of her face seemed to be even more eye-catching.

But Lin Xi quickly regained Yuanyou's attention through an interesting topic.

Ignoring the two of them, Lycia walked to the very edge of the hall in a trance, picked up a piece of meringue, and took a small bite. "It's so sweet. ”

It's all sweets, Lycia doesn't like it, and after seventeen years in this otherworld, she's gradually getting used to a more Western diet, but she still can't stand eating only these sweet and greasy things.

"Lycia, you still don't like sweets like you did a month ago. A month ago, she and Linxi had a big fight at the dinner table, and since then, Lycia has not waited for Linxi
