Loran Hill, who was reading a letter from Carites in his study, received a report that two special guests had arrived.

"Descendant of the Red Dragon Duke?"

"Yes, Master Jialan."

Thinking about this somewhat familiar name, Loran Hill wondered whether he should reveal his past identity, that is, the existence of Messia, to the Red Dragon Princess.

Forget it, let’s talk about this later. For now, let’s meet the two of them first to see the situation.

Led by several warriors wearing Bilin armor, Loran Hill came to a hall for meeting guests.

Because the other party's identity was extraordinary, the organization quickly mobilized the Bilin guards who were patrolling the city.

These elite soldiers, with distinctly oriental attire, quickly attracted everyone's attention. Some administrative staff, knowingly avoiding them, took advantage of breaks in their work to curiously inquire about the guests who had arrived and necessitated the mobilization of these soldiers.

The white cloak with gold edges was riveted to the armor with sturdy epaulettes. The tip of the sturdy halberd had a translucent jade-like shape, sharp and majestic. The scales were tightly embedded together, reflecting the light under the candlelight. They were strong and disciplined, and almost every one of them was above Sequence 4.

It was thanks to the protection of these guards that the city was not destroyed by a few assassins sent by the empire, and various workshops were able to produce smoothly.

When they entered the hall, Phoenix and Lottie saw the soldiers lined up neatly on both sides. They were silent and welcomed the guests in a unique way.

When you display the most elite forces in your territory, it is not disrespectful, but a rare respect.

The two men stepped forward, and the crossed halberds were separated one by one. Then the soldiers on both sides took a step back and stood in line.

After the last pair of halberds separated, the two finally saw the figure standing on the steps.

The girl has long green hair that reaches her waist, and she is wearing an elegant shrine maiden costume with a white base and green edges.

She was not sitting on the throne on the steps, which was the seat of the lord in the past. After hearing the footsteps behind her, the oriental witch slowly turned around, and the two of them saw the legendary witch.

Rumors about Jialan are now flourishing in the southern border, with all kinds of stories. Even Phoenix and Lottie are quite curious.

At present, although the specific identity cannot be confirmed, at least the flawless and dreamy face in the rumors is true.

The blue hair swayed on the fair cheeks and ears like willows in the breeze. The eyes were as clear as the sky. The fingers revealed in the long sleeves were slender and white. Under the witch's robe with cloud patterns and birds, there was a kind of sacred beauty.

Just by meeting each other, one can feel the peaceful breeze blowing from the distant East.

"Welcome, Phoenix, and Miss Xia Lanluote." The noble witch bowed and saluted, then raised her head, her pupils and face slightly tilted, looking at the two of them in a friendly manner.

"I...we are from..." Phoenix was a little stuck for a moment, but fortunately she reacted quickly.

This oriental witch is very extraordinary. Even I almost became obsessed with her beauty.

"My companion and I came here to visit you and ask if we can be of any assistance."

After a flurry of activity, the two men finally explained their purpose. Loran Hill nodded, then raised his hand and asked the Bilin soldiers standing in the hall to retreat.

Then the oriental witch led the two of them to a round pavilion at the back of the mansion.

"Let's sit there for a while. It will be easier to talk."

Shortly after arriving at the pavilion, Iyena brought tea and snacks with two maids, and then she stood beside Loran Hill, standing quietly.

She looked at the pink-haired girl with a little curiosity. It was said that this child, who was about the same age as her, was the only descendant of the Pascal family.

"When did Miss Xia Lanluote come up with this idea?" After the three of them got to know each other briefly, Loran Hill looked at the pink-haired girl and asked this question.

In her memory, Lottie could be depressed and confused for a long time, and even somewhat evasive. Unexpectedly, a year later, she actually came to her on her own initiative.

"Well... maybe it's because I don't want to escape anymore." Lottie held the teacup and looked down at the leaves floating in it.

She has received too much kindness from many people, and too many people have died because of her. This responsibility can no longer be avoided, and she must bravely take it on.

Slowly making up her mind, the girl raised her face.

Looking at the determination in those eyes, Loran Hill was also moved. This special experience of ups and downs finally made this girl grow up.

"Then how does Miss Xia Lanluote intend to face the people of the Southern Territory today, and what kind of promises does she plan to make?"

In the past, under the leadership of the Pascal family, the empire launched an expedition, which resulted in countless casualties. After that, the empire was defeated, ceded land, and confronted the royal family, and a large number of residents in the territory were displaced.

"I acknowledge the mistakes made by my ancestors and understand the difficulties we all face today. I want to do my best to redeem and change everything."

"Furthermore, I will voluntarily give up my status as a noble and join the fight against the Empire and the old order as just an ordinary person."

Lottie slowly spoke of the ideas she had prepared on the way.

Hearing such words, Iyena opened her mouth in surprise and could not make any sound. It was the first time she saw such a nobleman, or a person of such a noble status, saying such words.
