Chapter 699 Kerudela seems to be unable to hold back any longer.
Chapter 699 Kerudela seems to be unable to hold back any longer.
"Since you are the player, we are the pieces, right?"
She remembered that when they first met, this girl who used a sword as a zither had asked her the same question, and she had nodded.
The girl nodded in agreement: "I understand."
But when faced with the girl's four-word response, the diminutive queen remained silent, a hint of bitterness on her face.
If I could..., I would love to have you as my friend for life.
But she didn't say those words, nor could she say them.
The king is the core of the game; if the king is destroyed, the game will end in defeat.
This is a lesson she learned in the palace.
So the short princess suppressed her longing for friends, but she did reveal it.
Sword Flag Lord, the only sword-wielding girl who could get within five meters of her.
Now, because of things in the future, this sword-wielding girl has actually seen some of the layouts on her chessboard.
This……
What does it represent?
This means her chessboard might be on the verge of collapse.
Just like before, she didn't know if she was truly a member of the empire's royal family, but when that ambitious nobleman found her amidst the refugee crisis, her fate seemed sealed.
"Only the royal family blessed by Tarantun possesses blue hair that flows like flames, and only the chosen ones can shed golden blood."
"From this day forward, you will be the long-lost princess of the empire."
"And your name is Crydella!"
What if she is Krydela?
So what is that "Cerudela" that was just dragged away by the nobles?
Was it the previous Krydella?
The Emperor of the Hyperion Empire had no heir, and the previous Krydella was also an imposter. This successor, also an imposter, was merely a pawn being controlled.
She could be replaced by the next Crydella at any moment, just like the previous Crydella she met.
At first, she was only trying to save her own life. Then she went from being a pawn to a standard-bearer, pulling the ambitious nobleman down from the position of regent. Finally, her childhood journey as a refugee made her see the injustice of the world.
While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone!
Having witnessed all of this, she wanted to change it all; the journey to chase the fire was the beginning of her desire to change everything.
Now she is the queen, the player on the chessboard, but also a piece on the chessboard. After all, who says a chess player can't be a piece?
So when Hathaway asked her if she was prepared to turn into bubbles in the end, Crydela remained silent.
"Let me think about this for a while, Sword Banner Lord. I need to calm down. After you leave, tell Jin Zhi Lord and the others to let them act on their own!"
Heiseyin: “…………”
After a brief silence, Heather nodded: "Okay..."
And so, Heather turned and left. After Heather had completely left, Krydela looked again in the direction Heather had gone.
"Initially, the journey to seek fire was told to me by 'Laigus,' an honorary elder of the Senate, but that person no longer exists in this world."
“I can believe you came from the future, but this Onpharos doesn’t match the Onpharos I remember…”
Keludela muttered to herself.
…………
Outside the Dawn Cloud Cliff Platform
After Hathaway emerged, she quickly saw Aglaia and several half-bodies of Tirispius waiting for her.
She went over to them and told them that Krydella wanted some peace and quiet. Then they told her why they had come.
"So, you're actually here to persuade Caesar as well?"
"Yes, although I didn't use the golden thread to peer into Caesar's mind, I could sense a very strong sense of vigilance within her. People say Caesar is domineering and a tyrant, and she certainly doesn't allow anyone to get within five meters of her."
“But isn’t this also Caesar’s way of protecting herself?” Aglaia said slowly.
“This morning, Caesar asked me to spy on the voices of those three. In order to dispel her various doubts, I had no choice but to cooperate with her,” Aglaia added at the end.
“Me too. I want to tell Caesar about the voices I’ve heard over the past two hundred years, and I want her to believe the voices I’ve heard. I believe they are the people those voices spoke of,” the several half-bodies of the Tigra continued Aglaia’s words.
"So, what are you planning to do?" Heather looked at them again.
“My plan is the same as those three’s. Since they’re not in a hurry, we don’t need to be either. From what I’ve heard so far, it seems that everything is under their control. So let Krydella think things through and calm down,” Aglaia said slowly.

And so, for the rest of the time, Krydella did not see anyone, and Heather and the others did not bother Krydella any further.
As for Qi Fu and the others, they lived their lives in peace and quiet. Occasionally, they would encounter the half-bodies of Heather and Tirispius, and play various games with them. Xing and Xilian, following Qi Fu's wishes, did not reveal some things about the future, but only introduced the future Golden Descendants to them.
Like the butterfly, the wind violet, the all-powerful...
During this time, Aglaia did not appear, but Qi Fu would occasionally notice a golden thread flashing around him.
Because of this thread, Krydela must have already discovered and seen some problems.
These are the events that happened between them during this period; other things also happened in Onpharos.
That was because of Qifu and his group's interference, news of Ceryldra's previous failed campaign against Georia spread.
The myth of Caesar's invincibility seemed to show signs of shattering at this moment.
Within the empire, a few voices of doubt began to rise, especially since Rudra had not made any moves during this time, remaining "staying at home" without moving an inch.
This gave rise to signs that the suspicion was growing stronger.
Hathaway also went to see Krydella, but was rejected and didn't even get to see her. So she came to ask Qifu and the others if they had any ideas.
Qi Fu stated that the empire did not belong to him, and he had no interest in being a king, so it was better for Kerudela to handle these matters herself.
However, he also subtly indicated that Krydela wouldn't be able to hold back for much longer.
After all, the more things Krydela overheard, the more chaotic her mind must have become.
After seven days of this carefree and unrestrained life...
this day
Qi Fu heard a knock on the door before he even got out of bed.
"Mr. Qi Fu, Miss Xi Lian, are you awake?"
This is Heather's voice.
He opened his eyes and glanced at Xi Lian, who was sleeping peacefully beside him, even in a slightly crooked sleeping position.
He reached out and patted her fair face: "Xi Lian, wake up, Heather is calling us."
When he couldn't wake her up the first time, he pressed his hand against Xi Lian's mouth and shook her violently from side to side until Xi Lian slowly opened her eyes.
"Uh, Wh...what's wrong?" Xi Lian was still a little confused after waking up.
“Listen, Heather is calling us,” Qi Fu pointed to the gate in the distance.
Only then did Xi Lian hear the sound of Heather outside.
"Has something unexpected happened?" Xi Lian immediately recovered.
"It shouldn't be," Qi Fu shook his head.
"I'm afraid Kerudela can't hold it in any longer," Qi Fu then said, offering his conjecture.
Upon hearing this, Xi Lian's eyes lit up. After so many carefree days, were they finally getting down to business?
(I had some things to do today, I was having a birthday party outside, so this is the only update. It was too noisy outside to write.)
