The Lord of Ashes

After the battle in the pit ended, Thain led his troops to continue advancing westward.

Chief Green Claw Sea Crab said that he wanted to send a few tribesmen to explore the situation along the underground river.

Thain also nodded in agreement with its idea.

…

A month later, in the temporary camp.

Natalya found her mother, Shaya.

This temporary camp is located in the dense forest to the west of the Green Leaf World. It was a temporary camp established after an unknown number of trees were cut down by the Green Origin Holy Tower Army.

Legion operations are not a one-step process. The Blue Origin Holy Tower Legion also needs to practice.

This temporary camp is the second camp set up by the Blue Origin Holy Tower Legion after entering the Green Leaf World.

I heard that the temporary camp in the north of Green Leaf World is almost ready. It is the fortress camp prepared by the Blue Origin Holy Tower Army for the northern battlefield.

"How's it going? Did you succeed?" Xia Ya couldn't help but ask when she saw her daughter coming.

"He locked himself in the magic tower as soon as he came back. How can I succeed?"

"Also, I seemed to have made him angry during the battle more than a month ago."

"Although he didn't say anything in the end, I'm a little afraid to face him now." Natalya replied.

"Are you afraid of facing him, yet you take the initiative to find him often?" Xia Ya rolled her eyes. She was obviously familiar with her daughter.

Nataya saw this and remained silent.

Although she was a little afraid of facing Thain, she couldn't help but want to get close to Thain.

Speaking of which, Thain and Natalya are obviously engaged, but they still don't feel like a family.

Even Thain's cousin Selena often comes in and out of Thain's laboratory, but Natalya has never been in it so far.

In addition, there is another serious matter.

That is, Thain and Natalya have not had close contact yet.

The two parties involved had little idea about this matter, but Thain's mother-in-law, Xia Ya, kept urging Natalya to handle the matter.

Originally, Natalya was not in a hurry, but after being urged by her mother, Xia Ya, she became anxious.

Doesn't Thain like himself?

Also, is he in a relationship with another woman?

His cousin Selina often visited Thain's laboratory, which gave Natalya a great sense of crisis and suspicion.

When she was stationed in the demiplane outside the green leaf world, Natalya accidentally saw another female magician from the Holy Tower of the Origin of Blue entering Thain's laboratory.

After Nataya inquired later, the female magician's name was Irene.

In short, all these circumstances made Natalya and her daughter wish they could deal with Thain as soon as possible.

Of course, it's not Xia Ya who goes into battle. Natalya has to take the initiative on this matter.

Seeing her daughter's troubled and depressed look, Xia Ya sighed and said, "There is no such thing as a man who is not careless." "Although you and Sean are already engaged, it is safer to confirm your relationship early. a little."

"Our Ernst family is not a particularly conservative family. Even if we break through to that level before the official marriage, it doesn't matter."

"On the contrary, this will make you two closer." Xia Ya said.

"I know." Natalya lowered her head and replied.

Seeing Nataya's appearance, Xia Ya felt that she still had to force her, and she could talk to her openly about some things.

"What do you think of my relationship with your father?" Xia Ya suddenly asked.

"Very good, what's wrong?" Nataya raised her head and asked confused.

Xia Ya sighed and said: "It's fine in front of you, but behind your back, hum..."

Xia Ya snorted twice.

Xia Ya's performance really aroused Natalya's curiosity.

I saw her asking: "What happened?"

Xia Ya looked around, and after using the power of fighting spirit to form an isolation barrier, she whispered: "Although I have the final say at home, who knows how many vixens he may have outside."

Natalya's mother Xia Ya's words really shocked Natalya so much that her mouth opened slightly.

The wizarding world does not promote monogamy. In terms of marriage, wizarding civilization does not even make any requirements for this.

You can be polygamous, or you can never marry for the rest of your life. The higher-ups in the wizarding world don't care about this at all.

Of course, polyandry is still rare in the wizarding world.

Mainly inconsistent with traditional ideas.

Women who are particularly slutty will arouse contempt and rejection from those around them.

This world is inherently unfair. The power of the superstructure of the wizarding world comes from the billions of ordinary humans at the bottom as the cornerstone.

As for those billions of ordinary humans, before they mastered the extraordinary power of fighting spirit and magic, men with stronger physical strength obviously had the upper hand.

The influence of this concept born from the bottom will even be implemented in the superstructure.

This is why women in the wizarding world often take the man's surname after marrying a man. (Except for visiting son-in-law)

Thain and Natalya were only engaged and not actually married.

If she gets married, Natalya will no longer have the surname Ernst, but will take the surname Grant after Thain.

Just like her mother, Shaya, now also has the last name Ernst.

Xia Ya's words really caused a huge psychological blow to Natalya.

She always thought that her parents were a model of an outstanding couple in the Knights Hall.

Including the fact that she was very dissatisfied with almost all the knights of the same level in the Knights Hall. On the one hand, those knights could not beat her, and on the other hand, she was extremely dissatisfied with the situation of those knights who frequently engaged in polygamy.

At least in the Knights Hall of Steel Wall Fist, there is no knight who has been promoted to the second level and is said to have been "protecting himself like a jade".

Not to mention the civilian knights. After being promoted to the first level, each of them began to sow seeds widely, hoping to establish a flourishing knight family.

And those aristocratic families with deep foundations may have completed various marriage alliances long before the first level.

Thain's father, Kelman, who was married twice, is a typical example.

Therefore, if you want to find single men, it is indeed better to go to the Holy Tower.

In the wizarding world, not only the vast majority of male knights want to marry a fragrant female magician.

Including the female knights, everyone hopes to find a handsome magician husband.

But the reality is that magicians are generally withdrawn, exclusive, stubborn, and dull.

It is indeed rare for a female knight to marry a male magician.

First of all, the values ​​​​of both parties are different.

Natalya is extremely satisfied with Thain in all aspects, except for Thain's cold personality. Natalya also discovered that Thain still has a touch of warmth in his heart through long-term interactions and fighting side by side.

Therefore, she does not object to marrying Thain. Instead, she wants to bring the relationship between the two parties as close as possible, even if she directly decides on that step.

Xia Ya understands her daughter's thoughts and doesn't want such an excellent son-in-law to slip away from her hands.

Just listen to Xia Ya sigh: "If I hadn't forced it... would it be my turn to become Mrs. Ernst? Could I have you?"

"I don't know which vixen I let succeed. The only ones I know are..."

Xia Ya closed her mouth. There were some things she still didn't want her daughter to know.

And telling Natalya this is also to prepare Natalya mentally in the future.

This child had been so spoiled by Xia Ya and Wilson before this, that he might not be able to accept some things.

Natalya's move to take Lenna home in anger frightened the couple.

"So do you still have feelings for each other now?" Natalya couldn't help but ask.

Natalya's question instead caused Xia Ya to fall into silence for a moment.

There was something special in her eyes, and she finally shook her head and said, "Of course, otherwise I would have cut him long ago!"

"Your father still knows how to behave and doesn't bring some shady people home, otherwise I, hum hum…" Xia Ya sneered a few times.

"Sean and I will definitely not be like you in the future." Natalya shook her head and said, she still has longing for the future.

"Yo yo yo!" Xia Ya teased with a chuckle.

"Then tell me, what should I do?" Nataya still couldn't help but ask her mother for advice.

"Ahem, I have an idea. If you don't do this..." Xia Ya came closer and said through mental power.

"Is there any danger?" Nataya raised her head and asked in shock.

"It's the danger that brings out your role. Have you forgotten when he changed his attitude towards you in Luo Lei World?"

"You are right to listen to me!" Xia Ya patted her daughter on the shoulder and said.
