Chapter 154: My Sister's Choice
Eve chased Isabella to a cliff, and Isabella was watching the slowly setting sun from afar. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info's long flowing and beautiful brown hair, dancing with the breeze, slowly fluttering in the afterglow of the setting sun, like a ribbon of the breeze.
"Eve. Isabella spoke suddenly, and although she never turned her head, it was as if she could feel her sister, and her tone seemed to be full of relief:
"Remember when we used to go to the top floor of Starlight Castle to watch the sunset together when we were kids?"
Eve slowly walked to her sister Isabella's side, and saw a smile on the corner of her sister's mouth, Eve also smiled and said, "How can I forget? ”
Isabella looked at the sunset, pulled her hair and said, "I remember it was also one evening when we were watching the sunset, and we talked about love. I remember you saying you were going to marry a hero who could lead Idireis to a great revival, didn't you?"
Eve nodded and said, "It's been so long, sister, you still remember." It's just that dreams are always and reality are two unattainable points. I didn't meet the hero who could lead Idireis back to strength, but the reality was that I had to put on my own armor and save the country in danger. Perhaps, Veronica, the goddess of love, never wanted to give me a love. ”
Isabella touched her sister Eve's hair and said with an emotional smile, "Silly sister, how can it be? Believe me, you are the one who is protected by the gods, and your story will be the happiest chapter in the fairy tale collection of the goddess of love, Veronica." That person will definitely appear. ”
Eve took her sister's hand and stroked her hair, looked at her and said, "Did Lance tell you that if you run away from marriage, I will have to marry Linton, the second prince of Hittivit, as soon as possible?"
Isabella looked at her sister and didn't say anything, she just quietly helped her sister, taking care of the headdress that had fallen out of her running mess.
Eve sighed and said, "Sister, you have been protecting me, caring for me, and doting on me since I was a child. Although my mother passed away, I never lacked love. Sister, in fact, what Lance said before was right. I didn't even think about taking you back or not. I have only one thought in my heart, I want to find you as soon as possible, see you, and make sure that you are safe. For the rest, I really don't care. ”
"I see what you mean, Eve. Isabella took Eve's hand and said, "Actually, Lance's words in the tent also made me understand something. From the moment I ran away from the marriage, my heart was always in emptiness, fear, fear, worry, and deep guilt. But I don't know why I'm so upset when I'm doing what my heart wants. It's like I've done something wrong. And Lance's words made me understand. ”
Isabella paused, took Eve's hand with warm hands, and said with a happy smile: "He made me understand that the most important thing in my heart is what I can't let go." Actually, it's you, my sister. At this moment, I realized that since I want to protect you, take care of you, and spoil you. How could I be so ruthless and give up halfway. So it wasn't until just now, when I felt you catch up, that I was completely relieved. Because I found my life. So Eve, don't think about it. Going back with you is what I want to do most now. Because, I love you. ”
After listening to Isabella's words, Eve couldn't hold back her tears anymore, and directly hugged her sister Isabella, crying like a little girl: "Sister...... Sister...... Sister ......"
And Isabella is like a mother, comforting this sister Eve, who is strong on the outside but extremely fragile on the inside. Eve kept calling out to her sister. After going through so much, she just wants to cry in her sister's arms, so that whether it is the pain of war, or the pressure of politics, whether it is the burden of responsibility, or the bleakness of the future, all this can disappear in the warm arms of her sister who loves her the most.
When Eve cried for nearly 5 minutes, Eve stopped crying, but her hands holding her sister did not let go, she slowly raised her head leaning on her sister's shoulder, and whispered into her sister Isabella's ear: "Sister, if you have you, I am enough." ”
After that, before Isabella could react, she suddenly felt her eyes go black and fainted.
It turned out that it was Eve who slapped her sister Isabella unconscious.
Looking at her sister Isabella who was fainting in her arms, Eve wiped away her tears and said softly:
"Sister, since you have taken this step bravely, why do you have to withdraw? You give up your happiness for my sister and me, so how can I face you in the future? Sister, let's go, my sister is just here to see you for the last time. After today, the two sisters and I will never be strangers from now on. And your love, I will always remember in my heart. ”
With that, Eve kissed her sister on the cheek and walked back with her in her arms.
When Eve walks back to the camp with the unconscious Isabella in her arms, everyone is surprised and doesn't know what happened.
And Eve walked to Woodrow's side with her sister in her arms, and then slowly put down her sister Isabella and said:
"Don't worry, Woodrow, my sister was just knocked unconscious by me. I knew that my sister had decided to return to Idris with me for the sake of my future and freedom from the constraints of a political marriage. And I know my sister that once she makes this decision, she will not change. So I knocked her unconscious so you could take her out of Idiris. ”
When Eve said this, not only Woodrow, but everyone present was even more surprised. They all glanced at Lance in unison. Because the prediction was correct.
When she handed her sister into Woodrow's hands, Eve also breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head to look at Lance, and tried to smile. She wanted to express her apologies. Because of Lance's efforts along the way, his decision was in vain. And if the search for his sister failed, Lance would not get any reward from his father. At this time, Eve felt that what she owed the most was this man she had only known for less than a week.
"Eve...... I'm sorry. Before, it was my bad attitude. I want you to make amends. When Woodrow put Isabella back on the bed, he immediately went to Eve to plead guilty.
And Eve also picked up her prospective brother-in-law, showed a tired smile and said, "Brother-in-law, this may be the last time I call you brother-in-law." Brother-in-law, treat my sister well from today onwards, and live in seclusion. My sister likes a calm and simple life. When you're gone, the two of us won't know each other again. I will go back and tell my father that my sister was assassinated by demons. You guys do it for yourselves. ”
With that, Eve took off an amulet from Isabella's neck and put it on her own to her sister.
Eve instructed, "This amulet is a token from my mother to my sister, and only then can my father believe me." But sister, she will definitely miss her mother. So I gave her my amulet. Brother-in-law, you tell my sister for me, I will always love her, and please never come back. The danger to our sisters, she herself will understand. Woodrow, do you have a pen and paper?"
Woodrow hurriedly brought a quill pen and half a roll of parchment from the side. Eve began to write quickly, and when she was done, she took a seal from the satchel she was carrying with her and repainted it. Woodrow recognized that it was Princess Eve's iris insignia fire paint. And this fire paint is not only a symbol of Eve, but also has the same effect as the Duke of Aceh's order.
Princess Eve gave Woodrow the letter and the wooden sign of the right of way given by Count Sadowa of Pachauri.
Eve said, "Brother-in-law, with this letter of mine and the wooden sign of the Count of Salvador, you should be able to walk out of the border of Idris through any pass unimpeded. This way there is no need to venture through the Gust Gorge. Please be sure to keep my sister safe. ”
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll take your sister safely. Woodrow nodded.
Then Eve turned around lonely, and let out a lamented sigh from the turning robes. She said to Lance, "Let's go, Lance, let's go back to Idiris." ”
And at this moment, when Lance and they were about to leave, Woodrow hurriedly caught up, stopped Lance, held a book in his hand and said: "Lord Lance, I lost the bet before. You didn't mention the gambling money either. I don't have anything to give you now, so I'll give you this "Overview of Swordsmanship in the Imperial Dynasties". ”
When she heard this, Eve was surprised: "The Imperial Swordsmanship Overview? The swordsmanship records of all the chief imperial swordsmen of the Normanland Empire for nearly 800 years since the founding of the country? Brother-in-law, what did you bet to give such a valuable gift?"
Woodrow was about to explain, but Lance interrupted, "No, it's just a small thing." It's just that after you left, I could talk to Brother Woodrow, and we laughed at it. ”
Eve also believed Lance's explanation, and said, "Then you have found a treasure." If you practice according to this book every day, you will soon be able to surpass me in your swordsmanship. ”
"Master, apprentice, how dare I surpass you?"
"Alright. Flam tongue again, let's go. With that, Lance and Eve left.
When Eve walked out of the camp, all the Idris soldiers and attendants who had escaped with Princess Isabella fell to their knees and tearfully saw off the true leader of Idris in their hearts. They know that when Princess Eve's back gets smaller, they are far from home, which means farther and farther away until they disappear.
