A strange world

Chapter 668 Chapter 65. Two princesses

Annan's struggle came to a halt due to this whisper.

"Who are you?"

The being said nothing and retreated from the edge of the square with Annan in his arms.

Annan quietly activated the magic scroll. With dark vision, he saw a beautiful face without a left eye pressing against him.

"Princess...?"

Annan told the Burnt Girl not to do anything - she had done nothing.

Following the "Prince" back to the darkness, when Annan thought he was about to retreat to the front hall, she led Annan into a side passage, pushed open the trap door behind a statue, and entered the dark secret room.

The "Prince" let him go, and Annan observed her appearance. The dark eyes, the missing arms, the white skirt hanging on her body, the long gray hair simply tied with a rope... She indeed looked like the Princess.

"what happened?"

There is a fake princess in Huadu, and there is also one in Lost City?

"That princess is fake..." the princess said.

At first, Annan thought the palace was invaded by a mysterious force, and the princess escaped from the square and hid here. As a result, the princess told her that the princess Annan saw from the beginning was fake...

"You mean I've been feeding..."

"Weird." The princess looked at him quietly.

Ship in a Bottle honed Annan's ability to identify falsehoods: "How do you prove what you say?"

"I remember everything about Lost City."

Annan doesn't remember, but he knows what happened on January 17th three years ago.

"January 17, 998 in the Saint Laurent calendar. What happened that evening?"

"In the evening...it is the time for the regular king's meeting."

"Who attended the meeting?"

The princess named some names, and the Archbishop of Valencia was among them.

"Why do you remember it so clearly?"

"I am not a mortal..."

If Lilith is the tower spirit of the mage tower, then the princess is the city spirit of Lost City - and it is the answer of the gods.

Annan didn't fully believe her yet: "The "Prince" of the Circular Square became like this because I lifted the curse on her. What about you?"

"I don't know, it seems that her changes will also appear in me..." The princess lowered her head, "This is what I am worried about...she stole my identity and became the real princess. What happened in What happened to her will also happen to me..."

The marks of being entangled by thorns still existed on the skin of the princess in front of her.

"Do you need it?" Annan raised the ship in a bottle in his arms.

"I'm a human being, I don't need weird things..." the princess refused.

Annan really couldn't tell, so he had to say: "I can't tell which of you is real and who is fake...so I will use my own way."

"What?"

…

Da da da--

The sound of footsteps echoing from the dark passage made the "Prince Queen" in front of the sealed door raise her head.

Annan emerged from the shadows holding the ship in the bottle: "I brought back the last body."

"Thank you..." the princess said softly.

Annan looked at her: "There is a sad story behind it."

"Would you be interested in talking about it?"

The princess's gentle voice was filled with curiosity, and she was not in a hurry to let Annan hand over his body to her.

Annan didn't know whether she was disguising or something... Standing in front of the circular square, she told the story of the ship in the bottle and the bird in the cage.

"Wenwen City is the place closest to the gods, but it still cannot eliminate the ugliness in the world..." The princess sighed softly. "I want to thank you for being willing to free the citizens who died in vain."

"It's not your fault. When the boy was caught by the nobles, the gods had been out of contact for a long time." Annan looked at the equally miserable princess, "I just don't understand... why did you lie to me?"

The princess' raised eyes showed a hint of surprise, as well as a sudden realization: "Have you seen...her?"

"you know?"

"The entire Lost City is under my watch, of course I know..."

Annan guessed what would happen next: "Then, do you also want to say that she is fake?"

"No...she's real."

The princess' words made Annan stunned, "I am also true..."

"I don't know if you know it clearly, but I am a warlock..." Annan said euphemistically.

"Let me tell you a story..."

The little girl and her mother lived in a cabin in the woods without any restrictions. One day, her mother said she wanted to go out and never came back. The little girl was scared and worried. On this day, a beast appeared outside the hut. It tried to break the glass and broke into the hut. The scared little girl thought that it would be great if she had an older sister...

Then the little girl's sister came to her protection and fought off the beast.

Of course the little girl had no sister... When she woke up, the beast had left and she was covered in bruises.

"It's me..." the princess said.

No wonder everything she suffered would be reflected in another princess...

"What can I do for you?" Annan asked.

"It's...no need anymore." The princess' eyes briefly lingered on the boat in the bottle.

Annan thought for a moment, and then, like the previous two times, he approached the princess and placed the ship in the bottle in her hand.

"Are you willing to give it to me?" The princess looked up at him in surprise.

"You didn't lie, and she didn't lie. She doesn't need humanity, you need humanity...so there is no conflict between you."

"I thought you would suspect that I was a bad person..."

"I did have doubts, but I thought that it was you who stayed here to resist the weird penetration." Annan said.

The princess showed a smile.

Nothing pleases her more than to praise a devotee for the nobility of his devotion.

The broken ship in the bottle turned to ashes in the hands of the princess. Annan looked at the thorns expectantly, but found that they did not wither, but seemed to come to life, gradually tightening around them.

"Why……"

A terrifying force suddenly broke out on the princess. When it touched Annan, it turned into a gentle push and pushed him out of the circular square.

The ground began to tremble... not only the circular square, but also the entire palace and the entire Lost City began to tremble.

"Sorry, I lied to you..."

The thorns pulled the princess off the ground, entangled and tightened tightly, and pierced the princess's skin... No blood flowed out, and her thin outline gradually blurred, as if dissipating, turning into a faint but gradually strengthening light like the morning sun.

"The beast has not been driven away. It is hiding in the room and will rush out at any time..." The princess's whisper echoed in the circular square, carrying endless sadness.

"Destroying this beast will cost something...and that's me."

The light emanating from the princess became more and more brilliant, and the thorns that entangled her dissipated painfully in this bright golden light.

The brave little girl clutches the ax tightly in the name of her sister.

"That ring...just take it as a gift to you."

"The new king of Lost City."
