Chapter 455

After that, Shien and Rosie didn't celebrate much. After greeting some of the people they were on good terms with, they left in a hurry.

It couldn't be helped. The situation over there was a little concerning. Not to mention Rosie, even Sean didn't want those big shots to suddenly get into a fight and ruin their engagement banquet, let alone Rosie.

Hence, Shien and Rosie left the scene to Lia to handle and left.

Under such circumstances, the nobles didn't have the mood to continue celebrating. They also began to bid farewell and left the palace.

Of course, they definitely wouldn't forget what happened at today's engagement banquet.

They also couldn't forget that the two Goddesses of the Protoss and the two demons of the Demons were now in the palace.

As for their goal, it was even simpler. They were all here for Shien.

This made many people re-examine the power behind Shien, and it deepened the idea that they couldn't afford to offend or make an enemy out of him.

"It was indeed the right decision to cooperate with Minister Porztut."

Javis was glad about this.

"Let's wait for the two Goddesses outside the palace and see if they have any orders."

Yule also led the clergymen of the temple and stood guard outside the palace.

Vivian, Tierre, Lumia, and Merica were all sighing.

"I … I didn't expect to see the Goddess of Life here …"

"It's a pity that we didn't see the Goddess of Nature …"

Between Lumia and Merica, one was excited, while the other felt that it was a pity.

Ever since she saw Anima, Lumia had been beaming with excitement.

After all, Lumia was a Beastman, and the Goddess of Life was the most worshipped by the Beastmen. It was impossible for her not to be excited to see the Goddess of Life in person.

Compared to Lumia, Merica only felt that it was a pity.

The Goddess of Destiny and the Goddess of Life had appeared. Only one of the three Goddesses hadn't appeared, and it just so happened that it was the Goddess of Nature, the most worshipped by the Elves. Merica naturally felt that it was a pity.

Of course, Merica didn't know that the Goddess of Nature was also present, just that she didn't show herself.

Vivian, on the other hand, looked at Tierre.

"Aren't you going?" Vivian said softly. "If it's you, you should be qualified to go, right?"

Hearing this, Tierre was a little surprised.

"… So you already know?"

Tierre was silent for a while before murmuring.

Vivian's words proved that she already knew that Tierre was blessed by Lidas, just like Rosie.

But Tierre didn't tell anyone about this except for Roland.

Thus, Tierre was a little surprised by Vivian's words.

"Because you don't plan to hide it, do you?" Vivian smiled and said, "Plus, I've been with you for quite a long time, and you sometimes show a little abnormal sharpness and intuition, so I took a guess."

"You guessed it right?" Tierre said calmly, "Indeed, among everyone here, you understand the God Race the most."

"Tire" Tit "

Vivian didn't.

She had a close relationship with the Protoss.

She couldn't do anything about it.

"Are you sure you don't want to go?" Vivian asked. "It's fine."

"No need." Tierre shook her head. "With the Dragon Demon, the Moon Demon, and the strongest Evil God by his side, it doesn't matter if I go or not."

When she said this, Tierre's tone didn't sound right.

Vivian heard it, but she didn't expose it as if she knew what was going on.

"If it's you, Goddess Lidas will listen to you even if it's just one or two words of advice."

Vivian said.

The higher the level of a Goddess, the more she cared about her well-wishers. Vivian naturally knew about this.

But …

"I'm different from Her Royal Highness. Apart from the time I received the blessing when I was young, I've never had any contact with the Goddess of Destiny." Tierre said calmly. "In that case, my words probably don't carry as much weight as Her Royal Highness. If my words are effective, Her Royal Highness's words will be more effective."

In that case, it didn't matter if she went or not.

That was what Tierre wanted to express.

"Alright," Vivian said helplessly. "Then are you going back with us?"

Tierre went silent.

After a while, Tierre shook her head.

"No, I'll go out for a walk before going back."

After saying that, Tierre left on her own.

Looking at Tierre's back, for some reason, Vivian felt a little heartache.

"Actually, you don't have to put so much pressure on yourself." Vivian couldn't help but say to Tierre's back. "I know you view Shien in a different light. You're probably betting everything on him. For this, you're planning to work hard to improve yourself. In the future, you'll serve him and be loyal to him, just like the ancestors of the Elbe Family."

Tierre stopped.

Seeing this, Vivian continued.

"I think, in Shien's heart, you must have a special place." Vivian stared at Tierre's back and said seriously, "Even if he already has the Demonic Dragon, the strongest Evil God, and even the Protoss and other powerful Demons paying attention to him, it doesn't mean he doesn't need you."

In the end, Vivian still revealed what Tierre was thinking.

That's right.

Seeing unimaginable powerful figures appearing one after another around Shien, Tierre finally started to worry.

Worrying about whether Shien didn't really need her anymore.

During this period of time, Tierre had been training herself so hard because of this.

Seeing Shien getting stronger and stronger, the people around him getting stronger and stronger, and even Rosie about to marry Shien, Tierre suddenly felt a sense of urgency.

She wanted to improve herself, prove herself, and make herself needed by Shien.

At least, her blessing was telling her — "If you continue to be so slow, there won't be a place for you beside that person."

This made Tierre not only feel a sense of urgency, but also a sense of crisis.

Moreover, during this period of time, Shien seemed to be hiding something from her. Under Tierre's taciturn appearance, her heart seemed to be getting more and more anxious.

Today's incident had undoubtedly given Tierre the greatest amount of pressure.

Because Shien had finally attracted the attention of the Protoss and the Demons, the two most powerful figures.

The Goddess of Fate, Lydas.

The Moon Fiend, Cela.

One was the strongest of the Protoss.

The other was the supreme of the Demons.

In the absence of the Supreme God and the Demon King, these two were the true leaders of the Gods and Demons.

Now that these two people had appeared by Shien's side, not only did this shock all the nobles, but it also brought unprecedented pressure to Tierre.

And so …

"You won't understand, Vivian."

Before she knew it, Tierre had said those words.

"For someone like you who treats everyone gently and treats protecting everyone as your duty, you won't understand my selfishness at all."

Leaving such words, Tierre left the place.

Only Vivian was left, looking at her departing figure with a sad expression.

"I actually understand, and I understand it more than anything, Tierre."

Vivian murmured in a sorrowful tone.

"How can I not understand the feeling of being abandoned by the people around me?"

If not for that, Vivian wouldn't have become like this, and wouldn't take protecting everyone as her duty.

It was because she no longer wanted to see the people around her leave her behind.

…

On the other hand, after leaving the royal hall, Tierre was about to leave the royal palace, but she met someone she didn't want to meet.

Because this engagement banquet involving the entire human race was of utmost importance, and no one could be allowed to get hurt, Anxi ordered the Royal Knights to strengthen the security in the royal palace, not letting any suspicious person escape.

Of course, as the leader of the Royal Knights, the leader was also near the banquet.

When Tierre saw him, he was standing alone on one of the paths in the royal hall, staring at her with an expressionless face.

Tierre's face turned cold right away, she walked up without saying a word. She didn't even have the slightest intention to greet the leader, she walked past him and was ready to leave.

But at that moment, the leader spoke first.

"You don't even dare to face me now?"

Alidia's cold voice made Tierre pause hard, she turned around and looked at the leader with an extremely cold gaze.

"That's not how you look at your own father."

Alidia glanced over at Tierre. Even though he said that, his expression was just like Tierre's, very cold.

Tierre was mocking him.

"Don't tell me, even until now, you still hope that I will call you father?"

Tierre said.

Unfortunately, Alidia didn't seem to care.

"That kind of small matter doesn't matter." Alidia said without any emotions, "But, don't forget, you are the daughter of the Albertine family, the blood that flows in your body is the Albertine family's blood."

Tierre clenched her fists.

"What are you trying to say?"

Tierre asked softly as if she was suppressing her emotions.

"Nothing." Alidia was still as calm as before, "I just want to remind you to pay attention to your surroundings, don't let the thief who covets your blood get what he wants."

Alidia then turned around and left without a second thought.

Tierre also turned around and left, as if she couldn't stay any longer.

The father and daughter then turned their backs to each other and went their separate ways.

That scene seemed to be telling others that the distance between them was getting further and further.

And this scene, and this scene, was witnessed by one person.

"Seems like I came at the right time."

Wollan curled his lips, his face was filled with coldness.
