Chapter 208: Ligaldo's Little Secret

"Sister Thor is very proud, and maybe one day she will do something bad to you. I will supervise, and if this happens I will stop it. If I cannot stop it, I will inform you in advance."

Richard looked at Diluka in surprise. Diluka tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I'm surprised to hear you say that."

Diluka smiled like a spring breeze and said, "After being with you for such a long time, I can see that you really want to develop Yggdrasil, so I am willing to help you. You want to get resources from here, but your actions also make my people happy. Yggdrasil will not fall in your hands."

Richard smiled and asked, "In that case, when will you teach me the knowledge of divine power?"

"After everything is settled."

Richard shrugged: "Well, then I can only use the technology that you love and hate before that."

Diluka blushed and glared at Richard, clumsily changing the subject: "When do you plan to attack Sister Freya's country?"

Richard glanced at the calendar and said, "Let's rest for a while. The continuous wars make us very tired."

"Actually, Yugdelsilu is also very tired."

Richard nodded and stood up: "Okay, I should prepare for the return trip. I will lead the troops from Grayze to attack Fluk, and this place will be left to you and Zonoz." Soon

after, Onyxia drove Richard Fina Primatis back to the Winter Kingdom of Grayze. It is not known which excavation site Yoshisa is currently in. Primadis went to sort out the archaeological discoveries of Greze during the expedition to the Kingdom of Summer. Fina went back to sleep after cleaning up the room.

Richard stayed alone in the room to formulate a battle plan. In the near future, they will attack the Kingdom of Autumn, Fluke. This operation will be the first time to attack from two directions at the same time. The work to be done in the early stage is to transport back some of the elite troops in Tordheim, the Kingdom of Summer. How many and which ones to transport, this is what Richard needs to do. As for how to transport, at this stage, flying dragons are used for transportation, but even using flying dragons, one must avoid the central divine domain. One must first transport to the east to Ada, and then to the north to Geretz. Although flying dragon transportation has many disadvantages, it is faster than walking around the divine domain. Once the Maiden of Prayer is repaired, transportation can be more efficient.

In addition, there are matters concerning the newly formed legion, targeted training for the existing legion, and other matters. Richard wrote until late at night before finishing the first draft. He looked up and found that it was already pitch black outside, without even a star. Richard thought of the last time he watched the moon in Gretz with Diluka, but Diluka was now in Tordheim and couldn't come back.

Richard shook his head and decided to change his mood, so he walked out of the room and wandered aimlessly in the corridor. The corridors were lined with guards, who were monitoring everywhere, including Richard's office. Although there were people everywhere, no one made a sound. Instead, it was very quiet. After being busy, Richard liked this kind of silence.

"Who!"

It didn't take long for footsteps to be heard from the corner. It was not allowed to walk around the temple of Gretz, and the patrolling soldiers were all outside. Richard took two quick steps and saw the person who made the sound. It was a woman. This woman looked younger and gentle, with a kind face. She should be Ligredo's lady-in-waiting who could come in and out here. Richard imagined the scene of the petite Ligredo being with her, like a daughter and a mother.

"Ah! Li, Lord Richard."

"You are..." Richard squinted his eyes and looked closer at the woman in front of him. She looked familiar. She should be a lady-in-waiting close to Ligredo.

"I, I am the dirty companion of Lord Ligredo."

"Dirty companion?" What is that?

The lady-in-waiting was about to explain when Ligredo came out: "Richard? What do you want?"

"Oh, that..." Richard glanced at Ligredo, holding a handkerchief and tissue in his hands, and raised his eyes. It turned out that this was a toilet. Richard

seemed to have the answer in his mind, and asked Ligredo with a smile: "Ligredo, what is a dirty companion?"

"Ah! Why are you asking this?"

Ligredo seemed a little flustered, her hands were waving around disobediently, and her big eyes kept moving back and forth between Richard and the lady-in-waiting.

Richard touched his chin and smiled: "This lady introduced herself. I have never heard of this term, so I am very curious."

"That...that..." Ligredo racked her brains, her mind worked quickly, and she immediately gave an explanation: "This word doesn't have any special meaning, it just means serving on the side. As for filth, the world is full of filth."

"Yes!" The female soldier next to her immediately straightened her back and continued, "It is my duty to protect Lady Ligredo!"

Protect? Richard looked at the lady. She was too thin by the standards of a warrior. The female servants under Thor had arms thicker than her thighs. If such a person were a guard, she would definitely be the one to retreat if something really happened. Can't even find an excuse...

Richard made a puzzled expression and said slowly: "Filthy, you mean the toilet..."

"Ah!" Ligalido screamed as if her foot was stepped on. Richard looked over and Ligalido's eyes were a little evasive, "That... yes... Ah! No! No!"

Ligalido's panic had betrayed her. Her evasive eyes told her that she wanted to end the topic. Richard was in a playful mood and planned to do so. He analyzed seriously: "The lady-in-waiting next to you is an attendant, and this is a toilet. In other words, the person who accompanies filth is the one who accompanies you when you go to the toilet?"

"Woo woo..." Ligalido was like a deflated ball, with her head drooping and her body curled up.

"Woo woo..." Richard and Ligredo made the same sound, "I never thought that as a goddess, I would need someone to accompany me when I go to the toilet."

"No!" Ligredo explained quickly, "Only at night, when I go to some unfamiliar and sneaky places, I will have a maid accompany me."

"This is your temple, how can there be a place you are not familiar with? In fact, you are afraid to go alone, right?"

"Ah! That..." Richard saw that Ligredo's eyes were swollen and tears were rolling in her eyes. She might cry at any moment.

Richard patted her shoulder and said, "Ligredo, do you want me to keep it a secret?"

Ligredo nodded quickly. Richard smiled wickedly and said, "Promise me one condition and I will keep it a secret for you."
