The night sky became quiet again.
The clothes were gently lifted up in the night wind, and then fell down, and the sweaty back emitted bursts of coolness, which made people gradually realize the passage of time and the slow passing of the critical moment.
After a long period of silence, the two tiny black dots in the night sky gradually disappeared, and the four-winged angel that fell to the earth also disappeared.
Looking at the gradually clearing night sky and the scattered clouds floating gently in the wind below, Loran Hill finally relaxed, and then the fatigue that had been suppressed for a long time also surged over his body and mind.
Now, I don’t know how many months I will have to sleep. I hope I can see the midsummer next year.
With this thought in mind, the girl slowly descended from the night sky like snowflakes.
She knew her companions must have a lot of questions for her, but at the moment, the girl didn't have the energy to explain.

"We won another round." Chris's cheerful applause came from the tower. The witch didn't care much about winning or losing, she just felt that everything was so interesting.
"What requests do you want to make this time? The premise is that they should be normal, that is, not too big or excessive, just appropriate." Chris turned the candy in her hand and looked at Tidaisi beside her with interest.
Si Ye was still flipping through the pages of the book in her hand. Her slightly chubby face showed no change of expression in the candlelight. It seemed that everything was within her expectations, or perhaps this witch didn't care about winning or losing.
However, the twin witches opposite Chris looked at the girl who was gradually falling in the crystal ball with a little surprise.
She had been asleep for a long time and had only recently awakened. This was the first time she had paid attention to and witnessed the battle of this new witch.
Titus looked at the chessboard and did not answer immediately. She seemed to be thinking and weighing things. After several minutes, she raised her head.
"My request is that Aihekatri remain neutral in this confrontation or agreement."
Hearing such a request, the twin witches beside her raised their heads in surprise, then covered their lips lightly and smiled.
"You want me to stay out of this? Titus is really cautious. Or maybe you have already guessed my plan."
"However, since you have discovered it, I have no choice but to agree. You are worthy of being the leader of the faction that inherited Dorothy's position, and you are still so powerful." The witch with red and green eyes looked at Titus, and then suddenly became a little bored, supporting her chin with both hands.
"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have come here. In fact, you weren't familiar with me before." The witch, who looked like an elf and a fairy, turned her head to look at the chessboard, her golden hair hanging down like silk threads.
"Actually, I'm not sure what you're planning, but you're still too dangerous for little Loran, Aihekatri at the moment." Tidaisi picked up the white jade teacup, took a sip, and relaxed a little at this time.
After overcoming this crisis, the other witches of the Empire will probably stay quiet for a while, and by the time Vimiya arrives from the sea, the situation on Little Loran's side should be stable.
Loran Hill, who was far away in the sky, was gradually falling into a deep sleep at this moment, and without her knowledge, she had lost a powerful and special opponent.

This winter finally settled down. In recent years, the temperature has continued to drop, the cold season has been particularly long, and when it is covered with heavy snow, even the empire was hesitant to suppress and conquer, and finally had to give up.
"If it weren't for the burden from the North, I would have led the troops to suppress it myself long ago."
In a study in the Rose Palace, Edlun leaned on the golden-red desk and chair, tilted his body back, looked at the ceiling, and then rubbed his tired forehead.
Although his power is now unmatched within the empire, he also has many more worries and troubles than before. In the past two years, he has not even had a single day off and is busy with various affairs every day.
He was required to mediate and balance the conflict between the old and new nobility within the empire. The rebellion of the Pascal family in the south required constant deployment of troops to urge its suppression. The cold disaster in the north was gradually spreading, and various documents requesting help and supplies poured in like snowflakes. The technological innovations mentioned by the Royal Academy also had to be put on the agenda, and he had to attend meetings and make decisions frequently.
All kinds of thoughts and ideas were flying around in his mind, giving His Royal Highness the Regent a headache.
Maybe I should find someone to share the burden with.
Thinking back to the proposal made by several close ministers some time ago about getting him married, the regent couldn't help but think about it.
In fact, many years ago, he also had a vague verbal marriage contract, which was to marry the Red Dragon Duke of the Southern Territory, the Pascal family.
Unfortunately, because he was assassinated in the coup and fell into a coma, this verbal agreement came to nothing. Later, due to the issue of military power, he and the Duke of Red Dragon drifted further and further apart.
As early as when the emperor was on the Western Expedition, the military power of the millions of troops on the Western Expedition was an extremely sensitive issue.
The emperor was naturally worried about handing over such a large army to the Pascal family for command, so he asked him to join the army as deputy marshal to check and balance the Red Dragon Duke.
Such behavior was naturally disliked by the other party, and as time went by, rifts and resentment arose between the two sides.
Later, the emperor died in an accident. In order to prevent chaos and division within the empire, he had to cut the Gordian knot and reached a ceasefire agreement with Clancy in a very short time.
The price to pay was naturally the Red Dragon Duke and the Pascal family. Because the Red Dragon Duke was the main instigator of the war, this was the bottom line of Clancy's inevitable revenge and could not be compromised.
