Chapter 124: Choice

Ilea hurried to the dungeon, only to learn there that the man had been rescued.

The two Hughes of the Church were still helping to check the bodies of the detainees, while Ona had been placed in a nearby inn to rest.

So Miss Rabbit turned around and went to the inn, where she finally met her great-grandmother.

The old man looked much thinner than before, the food in the dungeon was terrible, and the hygiene was not very good.

Although Clovis had given Ona a separate cell, as was customary in the West, to prevent her from being crowded with the other prisoners.

But O Na is no longer able to withstand the toss now, and after two months in the dungeon, she is visibly older and the wrinkles on her face are deeper.

"Great-grandmother." When the female lord saw Ona, she threw herself into the latter's arms.

The old man was also very happy to see the girl, and reached out and touched her ear, "Ireya, I knew you would come." ”

"I'm sorry I'm late." A mist appeared in Miss Rabbit's eyes, and she just hugged the old man only to find that the old man's clothes were empty, and her body could already be described as skinny, and it was estimated that her weight was not half that of when she left the green field.

"You're not too late," said Ona, "everyone says that the Winged and their armies are invincible, and that anyone who tries to stop them will only be destroyed."

"But I know you, how you've changed over the years, and I've seen you overcome one powerful foe after another, one impossible challenge after another, and you've had Saturday's side.

"It has sent the Prophet Merlin to guide you, to guide the Arias family, all the way here, and even in prison I have never doubted that."

"Why didn't you get out of here before? I asked you to send a letter because I was worried that Clovis would do something to you. ”

"At my age, I don't have that much fear of death." Ona said calmly, "The Figuerola family has decided to turn against those Wing Clansmen, and when I first heard the news, I knew that there would definitely be a conflict between you and them.

"Your vassal status will be a problem then. David instructed Karoman to murder your father, Ruth, and if Clovis kills me again, then even if you raise an army to capture Rock Snow City, the other nobles in the West can't blame you for it. ”

"I don't need that excuse," Miss Rabbit shook her head, "and that is enough reason for us to resist the WingClans for the other lords to side with us, not to mention the reconstruction fund that Merlin and I have provided for them, and what I'm doing is for everyone to see." ”

"But what if Clovis also decides to go astray?" Ona asked rhetorically, "With the prestige of the Figuerola family in the West, what will the others think if Clovikken is willing to lead everyone to deal with those Wing Clansmen?" ”

"Then I'll give up my position as commander of the resistance." The female lord blurted out.

"That's exactly what I'm worried about." Ona sighed, "You know, many people, including me, have always had doubts in their hearts. ”

"What's the doubt?"

"Why you."

"What, why me?" The girl was a little puzzled when she heard this.

"Why did Saturday and Merlin choose you and not anyone else, did you ask the Prophet this question?"

"Uh...... Because I have this? The female lord picked up the electronic pet egg around her neck, "Merlin said that he had something to do with this necklace when we first met. ”

"And why did you get this necklace?"

"My father gave it to me."

"I don't think it's just a coincidence, Ruth has been holding that necklace for a long time, and nothing happened." Ona said, "And after you got the necklace, Merlin appeared, Ireya, you are the chosen one. The old man said seriously.

"Who chose me?"

"On Saturday, you have had a responsibility since you were born."

"I ...... Have it? The girl scratched her head.

"That's right." "You're destined to do great things, but sometimes you're too kind. ”

"Isn't kindness bad?"

"Kindness is good, but if you want to really do great things, you sometimes need to be ruthless and compete with others, and besides, this is what belongs to you, without you stepping up, the West would have fallen long ago, and the Figuerola family is also subject to those savage Wing people like the Polos family.

"Promise me that from now on, you will never give anything that belongs to you to others again."

The old man's face was very serious, and he grabbed his great-granddaughter's hands very hard, and even pinched out red marks on the girl's arms.

The female lord thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I also think that it seems a bit of a loss to give it to others after spending so much effort, and Merlin should also want me to become the master of this land, so that the Shuangxiu Sect can also develop better." ”

"That's right." Ona was relieved, "You've just conquered this city, and there's still a lot of work to do, so don't stay here with me anymore." ”

"But your body ......"

"My body is fine, as long as I recuperate for a while, I will come to help you when the time comes, I have lived here for more than two years and know a lot of people."

"Well, Aunt Alyssa will be over in a few days, and you can run the city with her."

Shortly after Miss Rabbit left, another guest came to the inn, and when she saw him, Ona kicked the maid out of the room.

Iwan closed the door and looked around to make sure there was no one inside, "Clovis is dead." ”

"How did you die?"

"Self-immolation, he refused to surrender and was buried in the fire with his beloved book, very heroic."

"Good."

"I've asked people to do it as clean as possible, but time is tight, and we can only do it to this extent, and people who are more familiar with Clovis should be suspicious."

"What about doubt?" Ona said lightly, "Now that the Arias family in the Westland is the strongest, those nobles also need Ilea to continue to lead them to fight against those Wing Clan and their allies, and smart people will keep their mouths shut." ”

"You're right, I think so." Iwan agreed.

"The rift between the Arias and Figuerola families will not be repaired, and as long as the Arias family remains in the West, they will not be able to return for a day.

"It's a pity for Lord Clovis, it is said that when he was dying, he hoped that Sir Ilea would spare his life and ask him to continue reading in the library."

Ona didn't think there was anything to it and snorted lightly, "Has Clovis forgotten what his family did to the last Lord of the West, in order to rule this land?"

"There is a price to pay for making the wrong choice, killing him alone, and Ilea is merciful enough."
