"Father, why do I have to wear these things?"
Armor, that was something a child of this age would naturally not like. Moreover, this kind of armor was accompanied by a certain degree of pain, it was natural for her to want to take it off.
"Very simple, according to the ancient prophecy of the three races alliance, there may be a great calamity in the future. As the successor, you must obtain great power, and hide your identity as much as possible. This armor was designed for this purpose."
The man's answer was solemn and serious, but to the child's ears, it was no different than usual. The thin and weak child sadly lowered her head, and said with a choked voice.
"You don't need to play, those noises will only weaken you, you only need to become strong!"
Silence once again filled the hall, as if feeling that his attitude was too harsh, after a moment, the man walked down from the throne, sighed and opened his mouth to explain.
"Oath …."
"In other words, as long as I persevere until they reappear, it will be fine?"
The man pondered for a moment, reached out his hand and stroked the child's head, and smiled.
In the dreamscape formed by the memories of the distant past, a name that had been forgotten for many years suddenly lingered in her ears, causing the sleeping girl to abruptly open her eyes and wake up with a start.
Why did she suddenly think of her childhood? Was it because she took off her armor today?
"No, it's rare to take off my armor, I should have slept better. Is there a problem with my body?"
It was a healthy and beautiful body that had obviously undergone sufficient training. Slender and straight legs, a slim waist without any excess fat, a full chest, and a snow-white neck. At the top of the mirror, what was reflected was a dazzling and beautiful yet strangely dignified face.
Draconic Aura, this was the symbol of the royal family of knights with dragon blood hidden in her small body – the Connate family. It was also one of the things that the girl had hidden from the public for many years. But regarding this characteristic of her family, Wilhelmina had always been quite fond of it.
But unlike the usual William who exuded a suffocating and dignified aura, after revealing her face, Wilhelmina's temperament as a young girl underwent some changes. Under the Draconic Aura, it was no longer oppressive and terrifying, but inviolable and noble.
Wilhelmina checked her body that was almost perfect because of the dragon's blood. She found nothing. Frustrated, she walked back to her bed and lay down. She had to face the last possibility in her mind.
Wilhelmina's heartbeat quickened as she recalled the young man she met under the northern aurora a while ago. She had to admit that the handsome Luo Ya would have a certain impact on any woman. Even Wilhelmina, who had always treated herself as a man, found it hard to escape. She even hastily sent out an invitation because of that.
"This time, I can't mess it up again."
In the preparation room, a black-haired youth in formal attire was sitting on a chair, trembling as he looked at the letter that the Nuo Aier and Xia Luote had received. Around him, the two youths who were deputy heads of the consulting department were trembling.
After reading back and forth twice, Luo Ya Akat slowly stopped trembling. He raised his head and asked the two candidates in front of him softly with a smile. Hearing his words, the two suspects completely stopped pretending and began to drag each other down.
Hearing Luo Ya's accusation, the dog-headed strategist Geralt slapped his thigh. His expression turned extremely sorrowful in a few seconds. He shook his head and sighed. Squeezing out the tears in his eyes, he said to Luo Ya.
The gray-haired youth said so, sorrowfully and innocently, like a wronged ghost who was dragged into a car. But seeing him like this, Paul Achman was dumbfounded.
Is this a noble? How despicable and shameless!
Paul Achman, who had his hands dirtied by Geralt, was stunned for a long time before he finally regained his senses. He turned around and put the blame on Geralt's head. He also revealed the theory of the gray-haired youth to the public. Following Paul's counterattack, the scapegoat competition between the two sides officially began.
"You wrote it yourself!"
"You were the one who threw the mailbox!"
"When did I say that they absconded to avoid punishment? Why are you slandering people out of thin air! "
"That's elopement. How can it be called avoiding punishment?"
Luo Ya, who had been listening for a long time, couldn't help but interrupt the two clowns in front of him. He looked at the two people who were silent after hearing his words, thought for a moment, and sighed helplessly.
It was human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. When there was a problem, the two didn't pretend to be indifferent. Instead, they actively acted to help Luo Ya. There was no doubt that there was a decisive difference, especially when the problem was the "elopement" of the Austin Empire's Princess and Luo Ya. This was a big deal, and it was definitely not good to get involved.
Fortunately, Luo Ya and the others came back early. If they came back later, Paul would be ready to carry out the so-called "Plan B." By then, the matter of him and Lillian eloping and having a child would be widely spread, and it would become an established fact. It would probably be as noisy as the Jiangnan Leather Factory.
The black-haired youth thought for a moment, looked at the two youths, and said softly,
"Hey? Clean up? "
Hearing Luo Ya's "punishment" after sighing, Paul and Gelok were taken aback. They obviously didn't expect the punishment to be so light. The black-haired youth raised his eyebrows and said with a weird expression,
"No, no, I think cleaning up is good!"
Listening to the two clowns, Luo Ya shook his head helplessly. He stood up and walked to the door under the gaze of the two.
Luo Ya said and opened the door. The next moment, cheers and applause from the outside poured into the room. In the wave of voices, the black-haired youth turned his head and looked at the two stunned people with a smile.
"After all, tonight belongs to us."
