Daily Life (Continued)

"I'll be going now."

Archer Artoria Lily felt that there was no need for him to stay here any longer.

Staying any longer would just make me a third wheel.

"Goodbye, Miss Lily."

"Um."

Archer Artoria Lily, turned around, and vanished into the air as a spiritual particle.

When they reappeared, they had already returned home.

"Lily, you're back."

Xiao Shi turned his head to look at the suddenly appearing Archer Artoria Lily and said.

"Um."

Archer Artoria Lily replied briefly, then sat down on the sofa and remained silent.

"Lily, where did you go?" Xiao Shi asked curiously.

Herrscher are very sensitive to emotions.

Her resentment was all too obvious.

Archer Artoria Lily didn't answer the question, but instead asked, "Xiao Shi, do you have any watermelons at home?"

Although Xiao Shi was puzzled, he still said, "Yes, it's in the refrigerator."

"Thanks."

Archer Artoria Lily up and went straight to the kitchen.

Xiao Shi looked at Archer Artoria Lily curiously, wondering why he suddenly wanted to eat watermelon.

Are you experiencing internal heat?

Britain

King Arthur, Cade Pendragon, paced anxiously back and forth in the hall.

Not because of anything else, but

The Saintess is lost!

Not only did the person disappear, but the secret method they used to communicate was also forcibly cut off.

"My king, it seems the Saintess has left Britain."

Just then, a red-haired knight rushed in.

"What?"

Arthur was startled.

"According to those stationed in Northern Europe, it seems that the Saintess Maiden has gone to Flame Nation," Tristan said.

"Flame Nation?"

Kaid was taken aback. "The Saintess Maiden went to Flame Nation? Why is that?"

"Could it be related to that record?"

"Records?"

"According to Britain historical records, the Saintess Maiden's Holy Lance was apparently granted by the God of Contracts of Flame Nation. Now that the Saintess Maiden Flame Nation, could it be that she is going to find that God of Contracts?"

Kaid's expression changed.

He naturally knew about this.

However, being young, he thought it was just something he recorded haphazardly...

Could it really be true?

"My king, should we go and communicate with the ambassador of Flame Nation and ask him to let us search for Her Highness the Saintess Maiden?"

Just as Kaid was lost in thought, Tristan's words brought him back to his senses.

"No need. With the Saintess's strength, Saintess will be safe as long as that person doesn't intervene in the entire Flame Nation."

"We just need to wait patiently."

"Yes, my king."

"Tristan".

"How is the knights' training going?"

"The formation used is already capable of unleashing skills comparable to those of the Eighth Order."

"Continue training and strive to master the Holy Sword Projection before the Contract Rifts appear on a large scale!" Kaid said, frowning.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Is this the Flame Nation? How magnificent!"

Mountain Top

Lia leaned on the railing, looking down at the mountains, her eyes filled with undisguised awe.

Living on an island, she had never seen such magnificent mountains and rivers before.

The rising smoke added to the air's mystique.

If Lao Jun Mountain weren't closed to foreigners, Ling Yuan would have loved to take her there.

"Let's go, let's move on to the next attraction."

Ling Yuan took a picture of the girl to commemorate the moment.

"Um!"

Lia jogged over and took Ling Yuan's arm.

The two disappeared from the spot in an instant.

In the following days, Ling Yuan accompanied Lia to one scenic spot after another, and even had a picnic in a dense forest.

Lia even used a harpoon to spear fish in the river.

The Britain Saintess instantly transformed into a country bumpkin.

"..."

Happy times are always fleeting.

Time quickly passed and evening arrived.

"Lia, it's getting late, we should go back," Ling Yuan said.

"Ah, I didn't realize it. Lord Ling Yuan, you should go back now. I'll stay a while longer," Lia said somewhat apologetically.

I was so excited that I accidentally caused trouble for Lord Ling Yuan.

"I don't think you've understood me. I mean, do you want to come home with me?" Ling Yuan said.

Lia was startled.

Surprised by Ling Yuan's answer, she shook her head. "No, I have things to take care of in Britain."

She was already very grateful that Ling Yuan agreed to spend his last few days with her.

Going any deeper would be beyond her reach.

See you tomorrow.

Seeing this, Ling Yuan did not insist.

"Okay, see you tomorrow." Lia smiled gently.

A gentle evening breeze blew, causing her long, golden hair to flutter, making her look like a goddess who had fallen to earth.

Ling Yuan left.

Under the bright moon

Lia stood there alone, gazing at the mountains.

She used to enjoy being alone and lost in thought.

However, this time, she had no regrets.

Ling Yuan's family

Upon his return, Ling Yuan did not conceal anything and told the women about Lia's situation.

"Poor Lia."

"What's there to pity? It's just wishful thinking," Kiana said, pouring cold water on the idea.

"Kana-neechan has no heart."

"What do you plan to do?" Ranran asked Ling Yuan.

"Spend her last few days with her."

Ranran and the others glanced at Ling Yuan in surprise.

"What's wrong?"

Sensing their surprised expressions, Ling Yuan asked, bewildered.

"This isn't like you. Shouldn't you be taking Lia home?" Black Pupil said.

"Uh-huh."

Cecilia and the others nodded in agreement.

Ling Yuan: "..."

"I already have you all, as for Lia, let's just forget about her."

"Does this 'you all' include me?" Little Lingxi asked expectantly.

"... I don't want to live a life of execution where I can be imprisoned but not held captive." Ling Yuan glanced at Little Lingxi and said calmly.

"Hmm."

Little Lingxi pouted in dissatisfaction.

She's 14 this year, and it'll be fine in two more years.

(Note: Because of the abundant spiritual energy, children are born with good qualities, hence the country lowered the age of adulthood to 16.)

"Brother Ling Yuan, if you can, please save her," Ranran said.

"It would be truly pitiful if such a person lost himself."

The others exchanged glances.

"Good."

Ling Yuan nodded.

The next day

"Lord Ling Yuan!"

Lia was already waiting for Ling Yuan at the agreed place early in the morning. When she saw Ling Yuan, she was as happy as a child.

They were jumping and hopping around.

"I showed you the scenery of Flame Nation yesterday, let's go eat something delicious today," Ling Yuan said with a smile as he walked over.

"Food!"

Lia's eyes lit up.

A fleeting smile always crossed Ling Yuan's eyes.

Sure enough, those who bear the name Pendragon are all foodies.

But soon
