A land of orcs with more men and fewer women
Chapter 172 About Loyalty
Indeed, the city lord’s conditions are indeed tempting.
However, for someone like Lilith who has never been exposed to power in her past or present life, it is still a mirage.
I won’t feel sad even if I lose something I never thought of due to rejection.
What is real in Lilith's life is the company and love of her family.
Her world now is complete and solid, built up by every hug and every kiss from her mother, father, second father, third father... eldest brother Tepper, second brother Vassilio, third brother Pappas, and fourth brother Antonio.
Now, she is unable to understand and appreciate the tremendous power contained in the word "city lord".
There is no need to understand or appreciate it.
This is the choice born out of the circumstances of life.
It’s not about right or wrong.
Just like now, when she learned about the bizarre intentions of the city lord, Lilith was happy for Seth at first, but also anxious about it. As for "city lord", these two words inlaid with gold and jade had long been thrown out of her mind.
When it comes to emotions, Lilith now cannot place any existence other than herself on a higher level than herself.
This is true for parents, siblings, partners, and children.
That doesn't mean she doesn't love them.
She loves them.
She also loves herself, and her love for them is not exchanged for sacrificing her own love.
Her love for herself is based on the integrity and independence of her own will.
In fact, Lilith had never thought about it before the city lord put forward this condition.
And it was precisely because of the city lord's conditions that Lilith began to think.
She found that she couldn't go against her heart and agreed.
At this moment, Lilith was very grateful to her mother, father, and brothers for their love and tolerance.
It was their unconditional love for her that made her so determined at this moment that she was worthy.
Lilith had no doubts about herself.
She was even grateful to the city lord for waking her up so early with an attractive condition.
This is Lilith's luck.
Outside the annex building, the setting sun completely disappeared behind the horizon, taking away the last ray of the old times.
The corridor was plunged into lightless darkness.
As her thoughts raced, Lilith's eyes gradually became determined, her deep blue pupils sparkling with bright starlight.
She understood, what was the most important thing to her in this world?
That night, the first crescent moon on the Lierz continent broke through the clouds and mist, piercing through the darkness.
Falling pure and white in the sky.
Lilith swore,
She devotes the highest loyalty to herself.
The light golden curls flutter in the wind.
The companion stone on the forehead emitted tiny flashes of silver light.
The flower buds under the companion stone quietly open.
The golden halo of oath surrounded her.
Mental energy surged out of her body uncontrollably, forming a mysterious pattern with her as the center.
The golden oath halo flashed suddenly and connected the mysterious pattern.
Instantly!
The golden light is dazzling!
The light was so bright that it penetrated through the auxiliary building and caused exclamations from the orcs attending the banquet.
It was instantly recovered and condensed into miniature patterns, which were imprinted on the sternum just below Lilith's collarbone.
Sometimes not.
Finally, buried completely in her flesh and blood.
City Lord Ottla looked at the changes before his eyes without saying a word.
From his perspective, he could only see that Lilith made a vow, but he didn't know the specific content.
But at this point in time, City Lord Ultra would not be stupid enough to think that Lilith was swearing in advance.
City Lord Ultra was waiting for Lilith's answer. Although some variables occurred in the process, City Lord Ultra still had full confidence in the conditions he put forward.
Lilith's small hand was placed on the manubrium of the sternum just above her chest, where the mysterious pattern was hidden.
Beat by beat, the steady heartbeat echoes the unyielding determination.
Lilith looked up.
In a flash, at just the right time, all the lights in the annex building were lit up.
The corridor suddenly became as bright as day, but it did not take away even a bit of the shining stars in Lilith's eyes.
Instead, it makes her blue eyes look clearer.
The look is decisive.
These eyes let City Lord Ottla know that she had made a decision.
The smile on City Lord Ottla's face grew wider, as he waited for the answer that had already appeared in his mind.
Lilith placed her small hand on the front of her sternum, opened her mouth, and the words of refusal were already on her lips.
Suddenly, his lips touched, and he asked another question that he hadn't thought about, but was perhaps buried deep in his subconscious: "Seth...does he know?"
Lilith couldn't help but droop her eyes, looked at the ground for a second, and then quickly raised them again, looking for an answer from the city lord Ultra with a burning gaze: "Does Seth know the city lord's request?"
The city lord Ultra was unhappy about this, not because Lilith asked Seth about his intention, but because he was unhappy that the prey he had been waiting for for a long time was not caught.
City Lord Ottla asked: "Is this question important?"
Lilith pursed her lips and nodded heavily: "I want to know."
"Too much curiosity is not a good sign." City Lord Ottla's voice contained a hint of chill.
Lilith did not back down from this. Her eyes were still burning: "Lord City Lord, but I want to know. I hope you can tell me."
Although City Lord Ottla concealed something in the whole matter, he was unwilling to lie about such a small matter: "I haven't informed him yet."
Notice?
"Notification"... The City Lord just said the word "notification", is that correct?
Lilith stood there in a daze.
why?
Why? The city lord had shown the utmost patience towards a little orc like her who had nothing to do with him.
But... didn't you discuss it with Seth in advance?
Lilith's brain seemed to stop functioning.
Ignoring the displeasure of the city lord Otla, she subconsciously asked, "Lord City Lord, have you ever asked Seth what he thinks?"
City Lord Ottla was a little annoyed: "No. Didn't I say I would notify him later?"
But...but in this matter, isn’t Seth also a core orc?
Compared to her, an insignificant little orc... Seth is the city lord, a closer orc!
Why... Lord City Lord, you can ask her patiently, but you are so... so casual with Seth?
Lilith stood there in a daze, her eyes blinking continuously, as if she was caught in a whirlpool of hallucination.
The brain did not stop thinking due to inertia.
Lilith thought awkwardly.
The Lord Mayor proposed that she should give her all her loyalty to Seth. To do this, he even sacrificed the city of Lila. Wasn't it because of the Lord Mayor's fatherly love and respect for Seth?
Then why is it that the city lord, as a father, who obviously loves and values Seth, is unwilling to tell Seth in advance before dealing with such a big matter?
Even...she, an outsider...knew about it earlier than Seth.
This scene was like an absurd drama. Lilith couldn't help but retreat again, away from the city lord Ultra.
That’s right! Lilith suddenly thought of the words “make a vow to each other”.
Yes, the city lord proposed that she and Seth swear an oath to each other.
The oath made to each other is the most unbreakable oath in the continent of Lilts.
It often only appears when a male orc and a female orc make a contract, one party promises chastity, and the other promises to never leave.
Mutual oaths affect both parties, and both parties have irreplaceable responsibilities because of the oath.
Since the city lord asked her to give her complete loyalty to Seth.
Then...will the city lord impose any restrictions or requirements on Seth's oath?
Maybe, not.
That's why the city lord didn't tell Seth about this.
Yeah, that does make sense.
