Working Prophet

Chapter 657 Simple People

After returning to the castle, the female lord took some time to deal with the accumulated government affairs, and then listened to the battle reports from the front line.

The offensive and defensive battle around Lionheart Castle is becoming more and more boring. The Wing Clan people are still besieging the city, but the disadvantages of lack of supplies are also beginning to appear gradually.

After using up the rosin they brought, they could not find a suitable ignition material. When collecting branches nearby, they had to face sneak attacks from Imperial soldiers lurking in the forest. Even arrows had to be used sparingly.

The Wing tribesmen now basically rely on falling rocks to launch air strikes. However, once the Imperial people hide underground, falling rocks will not have much effect.

On the contrary, Lionheart Castle, as the royal capital of the empire, has hoarded a lot of food and weapons. Although it has been besieged for so long, the supplies in the city are still sufficient.

In addition, as time went by, reinforcements from various places began to arrive one after another. However, because they were worried about the flying ability of the Wing Tribe people, they did not get too close and gathered outside Baihe City, which was about two days away from Lion Heart Castle.

The number of people now has reached 50,000, and the situation seems to be developing in a direction that is beneficial to the Red Lion Empire.

Miss Rabbit turned off the radio and picked up the letter beside her.

This letter was written to her by High Priest Quintus. In the letter, Quintus revealed that the spy lurking in the Blood Moon Society had completely gained Herodotus's trust, and the time to close the net was getting closer.

High Priest Quintus hopes that the female lord can provide arresters by then, because the Blood Moon Society is very powerful in infiltrating the Silver Moon Church, and Quintus is also worried that if he does it himself, the news will leak out.

In addition, at the end of the letter, Quintus also vaguely reminded the female lord, asking her to temper her temper in the recent period and try not to irritate Hells again.

Although Miss Rabbit finished reading the letter in her hand, her mind was no longer on it.

After hurriedly writing a reply and agreeing to Quintus' request, she returned to her bedroom, tried on several clothes, and selected the dress she was most satisfied with.

After dinner, he asked the maid to boil hot water, took a bath, and then put on the skirt.

She first sat on the bed for a while, but she felt uncomfortable no matter how much she sat. She tried to get under the quilt again and found that it seemed even weirder.

Finally, he changed places several times, dipped some water in the basin, smoothed the hair behind his ears in front of the mirror, and then sat down by the window.

Pick up your nails.

While picking at it, the girl discovered another thing, that is, when you keep staring at the watch, you will find that the minute and second hands move a little slower than usual.

But fortunately, they finally got to the position that Miss Rabbit expected.

And the figure in black appeared in front of her on time.

The girl's ears suddenly stood up.

"Mei, Merlin!"

"Did you encounter any problems while I was away, Ilea?"

Miss Rabbit has obviously heard this sentence countless times, but for some reason it still makes her feel warm every time she hears it.

"No, no, everything has been going pretty smoothly lately."

"That's good." Li Yu nodded, "You can rest. It's getting late. I'm returning to the territory of the religious group."

"Well, wait..."

Seeing someone approaching the door, the female lord hurriedly said, "Let's chat with me for a while before we leave. This time I'm on vacation and we haven't seen each other for many days."

After saying that, she looked at the person opposite her expectantly. The latter took back the palm that had been placed on the door, came back, pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite her, "Okay, what do you want?" What are you talking about?"

So far, things have developed pretty much as the female lord imagined.

She planned to start talking about the heavy snow outside, and then slowly transition to emotional issues.

However, when he was about to open his mouth, he felt that stopping Li Yu for such a trivial matter seemed a bit fussy, and he was worried that it would lower his impression in Li Yu's mind.

She was stuck here in this mood of worrying about gains and losses, and for a while she couldn't find any new topic that could save the situation.

However, Li Yu didn't rush her, he just waited quietly. But the more he acted like this, the more awkward the atmosphere became.

Miss Rabbit's brain was completely shut down at this moment, and she just wanted to say something quickly to break this deadly silence.

However, once her mouth opened, it was out of her control. Ilea subconsciously said, "What kind of person do you like?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the girl felt like she was about to suffer.

Because the ball was too straight, the preparation I had planned before was of no use at all.

However, she saw that Li Yu thought seriously for about half a minute, and then replied, "A simple person."

"What is a simple man?"

"It is people who are not so complicated in their minds. According to my observation, such people generally live happily and can pass happiness to the people around them. When they are with them, it is like having a little sun around them. .

“Compared with the changes in the world and macro-problems, they are more concerned about what to eat for breakfast today, and they will be happy for a long time over a flower or a puppy they saw when they went out.

"Although you sometimes hurt others because of your heartlessness, you won't blame them for it, because you know that's who they are."

After hearing this, the girl almost asked, "Do you think I am such a person?" Fortunately, she regained some sense at the critical moment.

He swallowed and said, "So do you have someone you like now?"

After saying that, she pricked up her ears again.

"Not yet." Li Yu said, "I travel frequently for work."

"Then...then," Miss Rabbit finally made up her mind after a while, gritted her teeth and said, "Have you considered finding one?"

She lowered her head immediately after asking this question, but she could still feel someone's eyes on her.

It wasn't until she heard a soft voice in her ear, "It won't work." She suddenly raised her head again and asked in shock, "Why?"

"Because as you know, I'll be gone for two out of three days. If it's a weekend, I'll be gone for even longer."

Li Yu explained, “Waiting is too hard.”

"But it can also be very sweet, because the joy you feel when you know that the person you are waiting for is about to appear is simply unparalleled." Ilea said anxiously.

"Or do you think that what really separates us is our identity. I am a mortal, and you are a god."

"I'm not a god." Li Yu shook his head, "I told you when we first met, I'm just a prophet."

"Then there is no difference between us." The girl said, "And I am a half-orc with three times the lifespan of a human. Even if I spend only one-third of my life with you, it is enough for me gone."
