Blue Sword

"What's the meaning?"

"I just mean I like you."

"What do you like?"

"The kind of love between men and women."

"ah?"

"...Can your reaction be normal? I seem to have said before that I will ask you to be my co-emperor after I return to the country, right?"

"That's true, but isn't that an invitation similar to 'I'll take you to play games'?"

"Of course it can't be that kind of invitation. First of all, co-emperor is a very honorable title, and it can't be awarded to just anyone. In the earliest Solomon Empire, the two co-emperors must be extremely close and can be trusted completely and unconditionally. Comrades-in-arms; but from the Fifth Age onwards, when the hereditary system was established, you can basically understand them as husband and wife."

"So... I can understand it as a proposal?"

"Of course not!" Sheila became rarely embarrassed and stepped on him hard. "I hinted that you can propose to me! Of course, you have to wait until I return to the country."

"But, Sheila..." Asik hesitated for a while, and finally explained to Sheila exactly what he had said to Nora.

"...So because I have to go back eventually, it's really not good to delay your marriage." Before he could finish speaking, Silla shouted:

"No!"

"Why?"

"What if you don't come back?" Silla said plausibly.

"Then you can find someone else to be your co-emperor." Ask said.

"The question is how do I know if you will come back?" Sheila said, "If I wait for you for many years and there is no news..."

"Then you go find someone else." Ask said.

"Then suddenly you came back," Sheila said.

"That only proves that we are not destined." Aske said.

"Scumbag."

"Why is this a scumbag?" Asik smiled bitterly, "A real scumbag should be..."

"Okay, I don't care what you think." Sheila interrupted him, "You are not allowed to leave anyway. If you want to confirm your mother's condition, when you can go back, I will send someone else to go back to the head office for you, right?"

Hey, this seems to work...Asker was a little moved just now, and then he reacted:

"Wait a minute, what if you only have the ability to go back one way? The kind that means you can't come back if you go back..."

"Then I can't let you go." Silla immediately opened her eyes and said, "What will I do if you leave?"

"Don't talk as if you are my creditor." Ask said helplessly, "I don't owe you money."

"You don't owe me any money, but you kidnapped me from Constantinople and now you want to abandon me irresponsibly?" Sheila said in a resentful tone.

"What do you mean by 'abducting'? I was trying to save you, okay!" Ask was unable to complain.

"What does 'rescue me' mean? If it weren't for you, I would have taken the royal helicopter and ran to Siris!" Sheila said excitedly, "Then maybe I can meet other handsome guys there!"

"Then you can meet other handsome guys now when you go to Xiris!" Ask also said excitedly.

"Okay, I'll go now!" Silla pretended to leave.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong, please don't leave..." Asik quickly pulled her back.

"If you want to leave, then I'll leave now, and you can find someone else to help you fight the bronze dragon." Sheila took advantage of this to threaten him.

"Okay, okay, I won't leave." Asik could only say.

"I understand." Silla immediately said suspiciously, "You want to stabilize me first, and then suddenly leave when the time comes, right?"

Ask:………………

Why the hell would I lie to Sheila.

"Don't be so wary of me." He wanted to try harder, "Look, what level are you at? I'll help you get to the level of demigod and train you to become a super powerful arcane mage. You will at least be more powerful." Can you trust me a little?"

"Wait a minute." Sheila started to lie, "It was because you needed an arcane mage in your team that I reluctantly joined. What's more, even if I'm not a mercenary, I can still live a prosperous life in Siris!"

"Let's do this." Asik decided not to argue about "who gained and who lost." He changed the subject and said, "I'll help you restore your country, how about you help me fight the Bronze Dragon?"

"How about this, I'm no longer in the country, and you don't want to go back either?" Sheila proposed to modify the terms.

"No way, you really don't plan to return to the country?" Ask was surprised, not knowing whether to be angry or in tears.

"Even if I no longer belong to the country, my sister will still be there." Sheila said seriously, "But there is only one Asik in the world."

Asker:? ? ?

No, I'm a little excited.

Seeing that he was silent and still not letting go, Silla felt a little sad and painful, and her eyes turned red with sadness:

"Ask, you've been here for almost three years. Aren't you and I... and the many memories we've created worth letting you stay?"

Ask was silent for a moment and asked her:

"So, Sheila, let's say I'm with you. Later I went to other planes because of some things and I'm looking for a way to come back. And someone over there told me not to come back. Do you want me to listen to her or not? Where’s hers?”

Silla was silent after hearing this, unable to answer.

"In the final analysis, what is unavoidable in life is just making choices." Asker concluded, "What remains unchanged is that we always hope to get the best results, and we do not hesitate to take risks for this."

"If I choose to stay here, then I will forever lose the opportunity to get the best result. On the other hand, if I choose to go back, I can still work hard to come back again. Sheila, you are so smart, you will definitely understand my choice, right? wrong?"

Sheila:………………

It seems, it should, indeed, there is some truth in what he said.

……………………

"So you were so convinced by him?" Medea sneered with hatred.

"Because what he said is right." Sheila argued for Asker, "If it were me, I would also like my parents and lover to take care of both ends. If you want me to give up my parents for my lover instead of trying to get the best result, I I will definitely not be willing to do so.”

"What, that's the best outcome for him!" Medea covered her face and said, "Think about it, it is true for him, but for us: if we stay here, he will 100% not leave; If you go back, you may not come back! Isn’t it clear what we should choose?”

"That's right." Silla pretended to know just now, but in fact, of course she had already thought about it clearly.

It's just that she really can't be as selfish as Medea, and can directly tell Asik that she wants to give up going back for her own sake. Wait, Medea didn't go to Asker herself, but asked me to tell her. Maybe it was because she didn't want to be such a bad person, so she wanted to use me?

As she was thinking suspiciously, Medea waved her hands impatiently and said:

"Forget it, I'll go find him in person. Let's take some time next week, you go and divert the attention of other girls, and then I'll take the opportunity to convince Aske."

"Next week?" Sheila asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, I still have some work to finish." Medea said without changing her expression.
