She Is Not a Witch Chapter 52: Candlelight swaying

In the slightly darkened room, candles are inserted on the little cake, and the warm halo is swaying, reflecting on Lily's face, and warm tears slowly falling.

"Why are you crying again, fool Lily."

"No, just a little nostalgic for the past." Lily whispered, wiping her tears.

"Okay, it's okay now."

"Then close your eyes and make a wish. You used to want to be a queen. This wish has been fulfilled. Do you have a new wish now?"

"Yes." Lily closed her eyes.

I don't want to be a queen anymore, I just want to have a simple and peaceful life. She chanted silently in her heart.

But this wish is too capricious. I have clearly enjoyed the glory and power of the queen, but now I want to escape irresponsibly. So please allow me to bury this wish in my heart.

"What wish have you made, Lily." Eidolon asked curiously.

"No, nothing, a very simple and willful wish." Lily shook her head.

"Hey, is it still confidential?" Eidolon said disappointedly.

"Well, I am no longer a kid, so I can no longer express my wish as before without hesitation." Lily shook her head slightly.

"Why, why can't you tell me." Eidolon folded his hand in front of his chin.

"Because I realize that some wishes are destined to disappoint and hurt others." Lily was silent.

"It's so complicated, I don't understand."

"Hehe, Eidolon is better to be Eidolon, and you don't need to know everything." Lily burst into tears and smiled.

"Is that so, no matter what, come and eat cake." Eidolon suddenly stood up again.

"The knives and forks are ready." Lorrain Hill lightly waved his fingers, and several knives and forks made of magic crystal fell slowly.

"I'll cut the cake." Lily said.

"Here." Lorrain Hill handed her a crystal knife.

Holding this slightly cold knife, Lily looked at the cake in the candle's halo for a few seconds, then came back to her senses, pointed the knife at the part of her name, and cut it open, revealing The soft cake body and cream.

Then cut this piece apart, divided it into small pieces, and handed it to Lorraine and Eidolon.

"Can you eat it?" Eidolon was eager to try with the cake, and then looked back at Lorrain Hill.

"Let's go together."

"Hmm."

The three of them are sitting at the small table, eating cakes, and talking about the past.

After graduating from Lorrain Hill and Bomansa, Lily stayed in school for a few years, during which time he sent away Eidolon, Letis, Alena, and Niya, and finally left school by herself.

"It's a pity that I didn't get into the fifth grade and got a diploma." Lily said embarrassedly.

"My talent is average, and I don't work hard like Niya, so I only entered the fourth grade in the end."

"After returning to my hometown, I cleaned up a few weak monsters in the family’s territory and lived a leisurely life. Because among the youngest brothers and sisters, my parents didn’t ask too much, and there were a few more. Brothers and sisters to take care of."

"So I had a great time during that period. During that time, I went to the south to find Alina to play, but unfortunately, after the war, I came back." Lily's eyes showed a touch of nostalgia.

"After that, I met the emperor in the middle of the Baska family banquet."

"At first, I thought he was also a young man from a little noble family, because he looked really young and he didn't have much style. I wanted to kick him at the time."

"Who would have thought that afterwards he confessed to me and shocked me. Because in the empire, many people are respectful and afraid of the emperor." Lily shook her head slightly, and then lowered her head to eat the cake.

"However, this is all over."

"Two years have been like a dream, and now there is only a cold reality." Her voice became low again.

"Huh, Lily." Eidolon also walked over at this moment, holding Lily's head, comforting her.

The two whispered a lot of whispers before they slowly separated.

"Do you have any plans or ideas in the future?" Lorrain Hill also walked over.

"From now on, who will be sure about the future." Lily smiled bitterly.

"It feels precarious now. The center of power is the same as the eye of the storm. There is intrigue and killing everywhere."

"In fairy tales, it is always said that the prince and the princess live a happy life together."

"But few people think about what happened later. Will the prince be able to inherit the throne, and even if he inherits the throne, will he be able to do well?"

"The king who cannot bring prosperity and victory will only be abandoned and cast aside, and as long as the cruel and cruel king can keep the country to victory, all his sins will be forgiven."

"Everyone attributed their weakness and deficiencies to the king’s failure because the king brought misfortune to the country, but in fact, when a person sits in that position, he will no longer be himself, and It’s a more complex existence."

Lily slowly talked about her personal feelings over the years. Although she rarely participated in the decision-making of the empire, under the influence of Emanque, she also understood and saw the truth behind many things.

If you don’t attack the Seven Kingdoms of Xuehua, the grievances and contradictions accumulated for many years within the empire have reached a precarious point. It is also because of this grievance and dissatisfaction that Emanke can obtain the support of the military and launch a coup. Ascend to the throne.

If the Ansel brothers are allowed to ascend to the throne and remain as they are, then resentment that has nowhere to vent will burst out, and rebellions and uprisings will be set off within the empire.

The ideas promoted by the establishment of Crancia were not understood by other nobles in the empire, but Emank knew very well how tempting such a trend of thought was to the people at the bottom. He even talked to Lily that if a few years later, when this trend of thought spreads, even if there are no foreign enemies, the empire itself will split.

"All I can do is to control this chariot and extinguish the burning flames, or to flatten it, the empire will continue to unify the continent, or it will fail, and the empire will be torn apart."

"Is there no other way?" Lily once asked him.

"No, Lily. If you read the work of the sage, you will know that all the problems were settled very early. This is an irreconcilable contradiction."

"The other party's existence seems to be to prove their own mistakes. If Crancia gradually becomes prosperous and strong, then voices of doubt will gradually rise within the empire, whether it is because of our system and all kinds of unreasonable that the weak is created And backward."

"And if the empire defeats Crancia, then the people of Crancia have to admit that the noble lineage really trumps everything, and the glorious noble system is practical and effective."

"So sooner or later the two sides will go to war, and I just started this war ahead of time when the empire is strong."

"This is not necessarily a bad thing. If the empire wins and gains vast land and wealth, the problems within the empire will be greatly alleviated. At least 200 years of prosperity and peace will be possible," he said to Lily.

"What about after this?"

"In the future? Let the people in the future think of ways. There is no absolutely perfect system in the world. It always adapts slowly, or if there is no way to continue to change it." Emank lightly stroked Lily's forehead at the time. , So answer.

In the dimly lit room, Lily recounted some things she had heard in the past two years.

"I can't change his mind, and he can't change the trend of this era." Lily sighed.

"Now that he is gone, I can only guard my child, I hope he can grow up safely, and it is best to stay away from the throne."

"But this kind of thinking is still a bit naive, and I have become more and more aware of it recently."

"The struggle for power has no retreat."

"It's a bit sad, Lily." Eidolon also worried for Lily in a low tone.

"When it comes to future plans, I hope I can take my child to retreat safely from this position. I am not a person who is good at sitting in this position. I am not cruel or decisive enough."

"But this kind of thing is very difficult, because it is too sensitive, and a little bit will cause a huge domestic shock." Lorrain Hill slowly got up and looked at the bright lights of Wanjia outside the window, these streets The pavilions on both sides are arranged along the street, gorgeous and tidy, and the tops of many houses are also shining with the fluorescence of alchemical creations.

"Yes, I also recognize this." Lily took a deep breath.

"I'm not a kid anymore, I can't be as selfish as I used to be. Although I was in this position due to an accident."

"But no matter how you say it, since you are here, you can't let go of your responsibility at will."

"Even if you will encounter assassination again at any time, and you have to be cruel to remove those obstacles, can you stick to it?" Lorrain Hill looked back, pure and clear eyes like warm red jade.

"I think I can learn to do it." Lily closed her eyes.

"How are you going to clean up the situation left by Emank? Now in the empire, I heard that many people are turning towards Edron."

"Is it fully delegated to him, or is struggling to retain some of his power."

"It's better to struggle, although it's a bit stupid, but there is always a sense of hope and security." Lily smiled embarrassedly.

"Wow, this is the right way, Lily."

"And then, what are you going to do." Lorrain Hill asked again.

"I am going to appease those families who have lost their loved ones in the war."

"This requires a lot of money, not to mention, and some money may not be in their hands." Lorrain Hill turned his head.

"This..." Lily bit her lip.

"I..." She lowered her head suddenly.

"Actually, I don't know anything, and I don't know how to save everything that Emank left behind." A few tears fell on the ground.

"Don't be sad, you will always find your way slowly. Also, aren't we here to see you?" Lorrain Hill touched Lily.

"If you want to solve various problems within the empire, this is not something you can do alone, or even the current system." Lorrain Hill said slowly, hugging Lily.

"So, you don't have to put such a heavy burden on yourself."

"Even though it is shameful, it is not impossible. People always have something that they cannot face. It is better to escape and live than to die sadly."

"Before this, you just have to do your best to do your job."

"Find people who can be trusted, bring some money, find people with good local reputation and reputation, build some orphanages, try to raise the children who have lost their families, and place those who have been injured and disabled by the war around the orphanages. , This can not only play a certain role in helping and protecting, but also can organize everyone to do some manual work to support themselves."

"In this way, even if the empire ceases in the future, they can continue without sudden collapse."

"You can't give them bread every day, but at least you can give them the ability to earn bread money every day."

"There are more things that you can't solve alone. It will take the struggle of the entire age and countless people to change everything." Lorrain Hill embraced Lily and helped her carefully. analyze.

"Don’t push yourself into a dead end, Lily. Although what I said seems to be very simple, in fact, it is not easy to achieve these two points, and at that time, you can leave this position with peace of mind. , Return to a peaceful place to spend the rest of your life."

"But... I still feel very sorry for a lot of people." Lily recalled that in the Imperial Plaza that year, the couple married to each other under the witness of her and Emanke. people.

"Yes, because you are the queen of the empire, you are destined to bear the corresponding evil."

"However, if you fall here, there will be no chance of atonement. And you will give power to those who are more lustful."

"It’s better to do 100 things right after you’ve done 10 wrong things than never take steps."

"Do you want to be morally perfect? ​​Pursuing an innocent and error-free life is not a path of happiness, it will only make you miserable~IndoMTL.com~ So, be firm, since you have gone wrong before If it’s done, then turn around in time and take the following road well."

Lorraine Hill recalled what Mother Sander had comforted her in the past, but she didn't expect her to tell another person today. And this is not telling myself.

Although she has now worn two crowns and has the ability to determine the future, she has been restraining many of her thoughts all the time.

Because of the fear of going the wrong way, it will bring pain and misfortune to everyone.

Obviously seeing the various problems in the empire, all kinds of decay and misfortune, but still reluctant to overthrow it, and luckily find a peaceful way to improve it.

If one day, she is like Lily, because she has done something wrong, causing pain to many people, can she face this kind of self calmly, can she accept the mistake of herself?

Having a sensitive body and mind makes people easy to be sympathetic and kind, but this kindness sometimes forms an invisible **** and restrains many thoughts of oneself, even if reason tells her that this is indeed right.

Perhaps, I have to be stronger and more determined, even if I am accused or insulted, not understood or doubted, I must stick to the right path.

People understand because of similarity, but as an individual exists longer and longer, her views and perspectives on the whole world will gradually change, and eventually she will not fit into the world.

Perhaps this is also the reason why the witches have peculiar personalities.

I hope that even if I spend a long time, I can maintain a little understanding and sympathy for ordinary people, and not become the kind of cold-blooded and cold witch.

Lorlandhill comforted Lily, his eyes staring at the candlelight in a daze, and the thoughts in his heart drifted to the endless distance.

I'm just Lorrain Hill, not a witch.
