Working Prophet.

Chapter 657 Simple People

After the female lord returned to the castle, she took some time to deal with the accumulated government affairs, and then listened to the battle report from the front line.

The offensive and defensive battle around Lionheart Fort is becoming more and more boring. Those Yi tribesmen are still besieging the city, but the disadvantages of lack of supplies are gradually showing.

After using up the turpentine they brought, they couldn't find a suitable igniter, and they had to face the sneak attack of imperial soldiers lurking in the forest to collect branches nearby, and even had to save some arrows.

Those Yi tribesmen basically rely on falling rocks to launch air strikes now, but once those imperial people hide in the ground, falling rocks will not have much effect.

On the contrary, Lionheart Fort, as the capital of the empire, hoarded a lot of food and weapons. Although it has been besieged for so long, the supplies in the city are quite sufficient.

In addition, with the passage of time, reinforcements from various places began to arrive one after another, but because they were afraid of the flying ability of those Yi tribesmen, they did not get too close, and gathered outside Baihe City, which was about two days away from Lionheart Fort.

Now the number of people has reached [-], and the situation seems to be developing in a direction that is beneficial to the Red Lion Empire.

Miss Rabbit turned off the radio, and picked up the letter on the side.

This letter was written to her by the High Priest Quintus. In the letter, Quintus revealed that the insiders lurking into the Blood Moon Society have completely gained Herodotus' trust, and the time to close the net is getting closer.

The High Priest Quintus hoped that the female lord could provide arresters, because the Blood Moon Society had a strong infiltration of the Silver Moon Church, and Quintus was also worried that if he did it himself, the news would leak.

In addition, at the end of the letter, Quintus also vaguely reminded the female lord to restrain her edge recently and try not to irritate Hells again.

Although Miss Rabbit finished reading the letter in her hand, her mind was no longer on it.

After hastily writing a reply letter and agreeing to Quintus's request, she went back to her bedroom, tried on several clothes, and chose the one she was most satisfied with.

After dinner, I asked the maid to boil hot water, took a bath, and then changed into the skirt.

She first sat on the bed for a while, but no matter how she sat, she felt uncomfortable. She tried to get under the quilt again, and found that it seemed even weirder.

In the end, I changed several places in a row, dipped some water in the washbasin, and smoothed out the fluff behind my ears one by one in front of the mirror, and then sat down by the window.

Pick your nails.

The girl discovered another thing while digging, that is, when you keep staring at the watch, you will find that the minute and second hands move a little slower than usual.

Fortunately, in the end, they still came to the position Miss Rabbit expected.

And the figure dressed in black also appeared in front of her on time.

The girl's ears pricked up.

"May, Merlin!"

"During the time I was away, Ilea, did you encounter any problems?"

Obviously Miss Rabbit has heard this sentence countless times, but for some reason it still makes her feel warm every time she hears it.

"No, no, everything has been going well recently."

"That's good." Li Yu nodded, "You can rest, it's getting late, I'm a member of the Islamic Mission."

"Well, wait..."

Seeing someone approaching the door, the female lord hurriedly said, "Talk to me for a while before leaving. This time, you are on vacation, and we haven't seen each other for many days."

After she finished speaking, she looked expectantly at the person opposite, who withdrew the palm that was already on the doorknob, walked back and pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite her, "Okay, what do you want to do?" What are you talking about?"

So far, things have gone pretty much as the mistress imagined.

She planned to start talking about the heavy snow outside first, and then slowly transition to relationship issues.

However, when he was about to open his mouth, he felt that stopping Li Yu for such a trivial matter seemed a bit of a fuss, worrying that it would reduce his impression in Li Yu's mind.

She was stuck here in this mood of worrying about gains and losses, and she couldn't find any new topics to save the situation for a while.

But Li Yu didn't urge her, just waited quietly, but the more he did this, the more awkward the atmosphere became.

Miss Rabbit's brain has completely shut down at the moment, and she just wants to say something quickly to break the deadly silence.

However, once the mouth was opened, it was out of her control, and Ilea subconsciously said, "What kind of person do you like?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the girl felt that she was about to suffer.

Because the ball is too straight, the groundwork I thought about before was useless at all.

However, she saw that Li Yu thought about it seriously for about half a minute, and then replied, "A simple person."

"What is a simple person?"

"It's people with less complicated thoughts. According to my observation, this kind of people generally live happier lives, and they can also pass happiness on to the people around them. When they're with them, it's like having a little sun by their side. .

"Compared with changes in the world, those macro propositions, they care more about what to eat for breakfast today, and they will be happy for a long time for a flower or a puppy they see when they go out.

"Although sometimes you hurt others because of your heartlessness, but you don't blame them for it, because you know that's what they are."

After hearing this, the girl almost asked if you think I am such a person, but fortunately she regained some sanity at the critical moment.

He swallowed and said, "Then do you have someone you like now?"

After speaking, she pricked up her ears again.

"Not yet." Li Yu said, "I travel frequently for work."

"Then...then," Miss Rabbit finally made up her mind after a while, gritted her teeth, "Have you considered finding one?"

She lowered her head immediately after she asked this question, but she could still feel someone's eyes on her.

It wasn't until a soft, "No." She suddenly raised her head again, and said in amazement, "Why?"

"Because you know that I'm gone for two out of three days, and if it's a weekend, I'll be gone for a longer time."

Li Yu explained, "Waiting is too hard."

"But it can also be very sweet, because the joy of knowing that the person you are waiting for is about to appear is unparalleled." Ilea said urgently.

"Or, do you think that what really blocks us is our identity, I am a mortal, and you are a god."

"I'm not a god." Li Yu shook his head, "I told you when we first met, I'm just a prophet."

"Then there is no difference between us." The girl said, "And I am a half-orc with three times the lifespan of a human. Even if I spend only one-third of my life with you, it is enough for me gone."
