"Theresia, we know that you have been trapped in the strange enchantment under the evil dragon cloth for more than ten days, and you need to relax when you are depressed and uncomfortable, so let's take a rest for a day or two to adjust your state, and then you can't do this."

"Yes, Theresia, you're our only hope against the Ice King. The recent snowstorm in the Northland is getting worse and worse, and the Ice King is about to wake up, but the flames left by the Valkyrie are about to burn out, we can understand this time, but don't be so willful in the future. ”

Theresia looked at the people who had persuaded her.

Many people here have watched her grow up, accompanied her up, taught her knowledge, always demanded of her strict teachers, the chef of the organization always saved the best steaks for her Aunt Susan, her childhood playmate Galina, and the kind and kind Grandpa Nathan......

She could feel the kindness that was emanating from them at this moment.

That kind of "I'm doing your good" kindness.

She knew that none of them meant to harm her, but the kindness imposed could sometimes be a disservice.

She smiled slightly, clenched Xia Ming's palm, and looked at everyone: "What if I want to be willful?" ”

"Theresia, you're ......! How did you end up like this on a trip? Did the man next to you bewitch you? ”

"Well, I said a long time ago that I shouldn't have let her out, and now you see?"

"Terred, Terred, you can help us say a few words, your sister listens to you the most, how can she inherit the name and will of the Valkyrie like she is now!"

Treed walked to the side silently, silence being his best answer.

Some sighed, some sighed, and some even came up and tried to forcibly separate the palms held by Theresia and Xia Ming.

Theresia burst of psionic energy directly knocked the man aside.

The momentum and spirit that erupted from her body could surprise everyone present.

"Theresia! You...... Have you liberated psionics? For the sake of the private feelings of the children ......"

Theresia smiled lightly, the corners of her mouth mockingly hooked.

"Children's private affairs? Didn't the Valkyrie of the previous generation have? If not, where did she come from, and how can she pass on her bloodline to this day? I'm just learning from the esteemed Valkyrie. ”

Her words shocked the eyes of everyone present, as if they had heard some illogical crookedness.

"Theresia, you...... How did you end up like this! This is not at all the same person you used to be! ”

"Is it an evil dragon? Have you been affected by the dragon? ”

"I'm sorry, but that's who I am. In the past, I was nothing more than a machine that you had forcibly shaped and cultivated, a substitute that completely imitated the will and image of the Valkyries of the past. ”

Theresia still kept smiling, not only did she not let go of the hand she was holding with Xia Ming, but hugged his arm harder in front of everyone.

"Although my next words may be disappointing to everyone, I still have to say it to you."

Her gaze swept over the shocked eyes of everyone present.

"I am grateful to everyone in the organization for saving my brother and me from the fog, raising us, and raising us to adulthood, and my heart is full of gratitude to you."

"I still have the same wish as everyone else, to kill the Ice King and save the Northland, but I will no longer be forced by your kindness to imitate another person and become a substitute for her. Imitation means that it cannot be surpassed, imitation can never be better than the real thing, but even the Valkyrie herself failed to kill the Ice King. ”

"So I have to be myself, a person with an independent will, I don't need to be anyone, I don't need to imitate anyone, I will pull out the Red Flame Sword with my own will, I will accomplish the great cause that the previous Valkyries did not accomplish, I will completely cut off the source of evil and save the people of the Northland!"

Theresia's proclamation was impassioned and sonorous, like a meteorite slamming down on everyone's hearts.

"What are you...... Think you're more powerful and noble than the Valkyrie? ”

"What a speech that doesn't know the height of the sky!"

"The Sword of the Red Flame will not approve of your arrogant will!"

It was like a string of artillery thrown into a calm lake, blasting out a series of waves that shook and tumult.

Everyone in the Ember Organization was shocked by her bold statement, they were accustomed to Theresia's well-behaved and obedient, and they were accustomed to her following their instructions step by step towards the will and image of the Valkyrie.

They never imagined that one day, Theresia, who was as obedient as a tool, would have a will of her own and show such a flamboyant and confident side.

This kind of bearing and demeanor could not be felt from the stereotypical imitation of the Valkyrie before, and such a Theresia made them angry and shocked.

But at the same time, a strange and vaguely imperceptible thought arose in his heart, as if a real Valkyrie should be so heroic, domineering, and confident.

Some people are silent, and some are still trying to persuade them.

"Enough!"

A majestic and calm voice stopped all the noise.

The leader of the embers organization, a middle-aged man with a resolute and cold face, Lu Ge, waved his hand and suppressed all voices.

He looked into Theresia's emerald eyes, and a powerful aura erupted from his body like a tidal wave.

Theresia's face was firm, and she met him with a determined look that didn't show weakness.

After a moment, Ruger retracted his gaze and announced, "Well, since Theresia has made such a decision of her own volition, as her companion and her family, we should no longer force her to accept the arrangement and fate that she does not accept." ”

"But Brother Ruger ......"

Ruger raised his hand and pressed it downward, stopping the opposition.

"Over the years, have you ever seen anyone successfully emerge from the mists of the enchantment laid by the evil dragon? The fact that Theresia was able to successfully get out of it proved that her will was so strong that no one could shake it, and no amount of coercion and persuasion would be ineffective, so the matter should not be mentioned again. ”

He looked at Theresia and said, "Theresia, they won't force you anymore in the future, you can go and have a good rest first, and this gentleman." ”

He looked at Xia Ming and bowed slightly: "Thank you for your help in rescuing our companions." ”

Xia Ming smiled slightly, calmly accepted his thanks, and suddenly asked, "Companion...... Instead of a tool? ”

His words caused the faces of many people present to change instantly, some of them were angry, and some of them seemed to be red from shame.

"What we did before may have gone too far for Theresia, but that's because we only have her one hope."

Ruger confessed: "Now that she is our companion, we naturally have to respect her will. ”

Xia Ming looked at his gray eyes, and suddenly said, "Before, it was hope, but now it's a companion." So......"

"Do you think that the current Theresia is not qualified to draw a sword and inherit the power and name of the Valkyrie?"

"On this continent, everyone has the qualifications to try to draw a sword, and the Red Flame Greatsword left by Lord Valkyrie is in the middle of our town, and we will never stop anyone from trying." Ruger said.

"But there is no need for personality and will above the god position, and the Sword of Red Flame has never chosen the master to use it, it does not need a master."
