Ye Fan nodded and said, "Alright, then let's take a walk by the lake. I'm almost done eating."
Al guessed and asked, "Ye Fan, did you send Bahamut over?"
"Yeah, on Arabo's side, Aziz is the most familiar with him, and he has the most troops deployed. Although I've never heard of that Lance terrorist organization, it shouldn't be a problem." Ye Fan said with a smile.
"It's just a few warlords supported by the weapons manufacturers of the magnesium country. They've incited a group of religious extremists and a motley crew.
If Bahamut were to intervene, they would probably just shoot a few times symbolically and then let them go. After all, their leader doesn't want to die. "
"Oh, is that so? That's good too. Less people will die. "Oh right, remember to tell them that it was the angels who asked them to save them." Ye Fan smiled.
Liye nodded. "I've already told them."
Ye Fan smiled and said, "I've always been at ease when you do things."
"Ye Fan, why did you make up this story? How am I an angel?"
"Haha, then what should we do? We can't tell our true identities, right? We should just make up a beautiful story." "In any case, those reporters just want to make headlines. It doesn't matter if it's true or false. It's fine as long as we save them." Ye Fan said.
The three of them walked by the lake, enjoying the cool breeze. They avoided the group of nobles and felt much more comfortable.
After walking for a while, Sally asked with some confusion, "Princess, I don't understand. "Why don't you do it yourself? The hostages were captured at the beginning of the month. If you go over, it should be easy to save them, right?"
Ai'er lowered her head and said in shame, "That's right …" I can save them, it's my fault, I'm too timid, I'm always hesitant, I think too much, I should take responsibility, "Ai'er said with a smile.
Fan Xian sighed, "You don't need to blame yourself, I understand your difficulties." After all... The AIR of the underground world is not an ordinary person. If you frequently appear, sooner or later, your true identity will be discovered.
You are also afraid of involving the King and Queen, right? Once they know the truth, they will not be able to stay out of it and will have to face the various matters of the underground world. "
"Even if the King and Queen knew, wouldn't they understand? "I feel that Princess Ai'er can do a lot for this country," Sally said.
Ye Fan winked at Sally, "Alright, stop talking. This kind of thing is Ai'er's freedom. She always has her own difficulties."
Li Ye realized that she had asked too much, so she didn't dare to say anything else.
Ai'er pursed her lips and said with a wry smile, "It doesn't matter, Ye Fan. What Sally said is actually right.
I'm not as considerate of the big picture as you think. I'm actually … selfish. I see my own life as more important than others' …
If possible, I don't want to be an Adept. I did not like the strife of the Underworld, and I cherished the name Elle Ingrid Alice Desiree more than AIR.
Actually, I'm just afraid that if my true identity is exposed, I'll have to bear too many burdens and face too many problems. I'm afraid that I'll become an anomaly in the eyes of others. I'm a coward … "
They didn't expect Ai'er to say such things about herself. They finally understood why girls were always so shy and unwilling to show their faces in public.
Actually, ever since she was young, she had been carefully hiding her true self.
Whether it was Al or AIR, she was trying to be mysterious and not let anyone discover the connection between them.
"Speaking of which, it's funny, right?" I'm the president of the Adept Association. Logically speaking, I should lead the Adepts to face the world bravely. However, I myself tried hard to conceal my identity as an Adept.
Once, when the previous President Maxim passed the position to me, he told me, 'The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.' I was still young at that time, so I didn't think too much about it. I just wanted to find more of the same kind and have some common language.
But now, I gradually understand that I am really a terrible president. I simply do not understand what President Maxim expected of me at that time. I have always been muddle-headed and only minded my own business. "
At this point, Ai 'er's eyes were sparkling as she looked at the sparkling lake. She smiled faintly and said, "I'm a poor Adept and a poor daughter. I only know how to hide in the dark and don't dare to look at myself.
I actually let down those Adepts who trusted me, and I also let down my parents who have always protected me … "Clearly, I should have done more for them." leaf
Fan Xian looked at her with a smile that was not a smile. He stretched out his hand and lightly patted Ai'er's head.
Are you stupid? Are you celebrating your 250th birthday today? Aren't you only twenty-five years old?
She looked at Ye Fan in confusion, "What do you mean …" leaf
Ye Fan sighed, "You already said that when you took over as the president of the Adept Association, you were still young and insensible. Don't you understand now?
You're only twenty-five years old this year. Are you that old? People always have to have a process of growing up and understanding the meaning of their lives.
You can't expect a recruit who has just entered the recruit camp to become a great general who protects the country. You have to give him time to learn, to experience, to understand.
Ai Er, from the first time I met you until now, it hasn't actually been that long, but together with me, you protected the Adept Association headquarters, helped me catch the postman, and when I wasn't around, you saved Sally Ye …
How can you say that you're a lousy Adept? You are a very strong Adept, and also a comrade that we trust.
Also, didn't you stand up today and face those reporters on behalf of your parents? This is the first step, but there will be a second step and a third step in the future, won't there?
"Ai Er looked at the man in a daze, carefully savoring Ye Fan's words. A hint of light appeared in her eyes …"
I... Am I growing up? "leaf
Fan Xian nodded and said with certainty, "Of course, if you don't believe me, you can ask Sally. This girl speaks straightforwardly and won't lie."
Li Ye nodded as well. "Princess Ai'er, I have always been very grateful to you. You are truly outstanding."
When she raised her head to look at Ye Fan again, her beautiful eyes were filled with tenderness, "Ye Fan …" Do you know, the person I've admired the most since I was young is you. "
"Ah?" You've admired me since you were young? "Ye Fan was embarrassed," I've never heard you say that before... "
"I was too embarrassed to tell you before, but when I was a teenager, I heard your name FALLEN for the first time. I felt that you were very powerful …"
Your experience is a legendary story among your peers. What I admire the most is that you are so young, yet so responsible.
You can take on the fate of so many people, fight, and even defeat your opponent, as if no heavy burden can crush you …
I can't do it. Although President Maxim said that I'm stronger than you back then, I feel that I can't do anything. Sometimes, when I meet a challenger, I just run away …
Actually, the first time I saw you, it was as if I had seen my idol. I was very excited …
Later on, when I was in the Enamel Kingdom, I knew that the Shura would kidnap me, but I didn't want to reveal my identity until the last moment. I feel so happy. "leaf
Fan Xian embarrassedly rubbed his chin and smiled, "There's such a thing. So I'm the idol of the legendary Air Brother AIR? "Haha …"
Her bright eyes lit up as she said, "After hearing what you said today, I understand. I also have to work hard to grow up and shoulder my own responsibilities. I can't always hide behind you."
Fan Xian smiled, unable to withstand the princess' cute and serious expression.
"My silly princess, there is actually one thing that you misunderstood."
"Ah?" "What is it?" Al was puzzled. leaf
Fan Xian sighed with emotion as he put his hand on Sally's shoulder and said, "The reason why I can carry so many things on my shoulder is not because I'm the only one.
My family, my comrades, they are all trying their best to share the burden together in their own way.
"Sometimes, defeating an enemy doesn't require everyone to bleed together. A single word, a single look, or as long as someone is waiting for you at home, that's enough."
Liye looked at Ye Fan gently and nodded.
She then silently glanced at the King and Queen who were anxiously waiting on the lawn in the distance. She seemed to have understood something …
Suddenly, Ye Fan laughed and said, "Alright, alright, let's not talk about these heavy topics anymore. Speaking of which, we still need some time. It's so boring for us to walk here. Are there any fish in this lake? Can we fish?
"Ai Er smiled sweetly," Sure, I'll go help you get the fishing gear! "
After saying that, Ai Er lifted her skirt and ran to the villa. The girl's steps were filled with excitement.
Under the speechless gazes of the group of nobles, Ye Fan brought Ai Er and Sally to the lakeside to fish.
Ye Fan got a pack of cigarettes and knocked on his legs as he smoked. Sally was still feeding the man fruits at the side. She was extremely carefree.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, King Gutav couldn't help but think about how to explain the "absurd farce" to the reporters.
"Your Majesty, I think... We can push the blame onto that Fu Lun. He was just trying to confuse the public, and the pure princess was bewitched." Prince Will suggested.
Gutav looked at Ye Fan, who was fishing by the lake, and thought that this was the only way, so he walked towards the group of reporters.
