Chapter 45

In Casmian Palace, Queen Monia stood on the balcony of the bedroom and stared blankly into the distance.

The queen is over forty years old but still has excellent beauty, but her beauty is pale at this time, and her rosy cherry lips, which were rosy in the past, were no longer blood-colored at this time.

The four-story bedroom can overlook most of the city of Bernardo.

The once prosperous city of Bernardo was now full of war. People who were in a hurry and look panicked and carriages filled with luggage could be seen in the streets and alleys. From time to time, the thugs who committed crimes could also be seen robbing pedestrians and plundering business businesses. The Mounted Police Team, which patrolled everywhere in charge of public security, are now gone.

The news of the complete defeat of the Three Kingdoms coalition has spread throughout all the human cities that have not been captured, and no one can stop the orcs from the southern expedition. The orcs' various beastly actions have also spread everywhere with the news of the defeat.

Everyone was in panic all day long, and those who heard this news had a very clear understanding: the end of mankind in the East Continent is near.

When you escape, where can you escape?! Although Casmian has sea ships, the number is very small, with less than thirty ships.

This is an era with underdeveloped navigation technology. The unpredictable sea is still a confined area for humans to live in. Every year, merchants who sail far away will never return.

Even with these very few sea boats, the price of each seat and room has risen to an incredible level, even if it is a noble class, not everyone can afford this price.

At the seaside, nearly half of the sea boats full of passengers have left Casmian and disappeared into the vast sea. In the city of Brino, all the inns are already full, and many people from afar are sleeping on the streets or near the docks, hoping that miracles will come and escape from Casmian, a country that is about to become hell in time.

There is no way to heaven and no way to enter the earth. This is the current situation of the vast majority of Casmian people.

All Casmian's elite troops had been killed in the Battle of Vickers. When we received this news, many of Casmian's houses were crying in pain, which were the families of the fallen soldiers mourning their dead husband and son.

There are only 50,000 second-rate troops left in the country, and no one expects them to be able to block the orcs. Even in this camp with only remaining troops, there are still people scattering every day. In a few days, there are only more than 40,000 left in the 50,000 troops. The remaining soldiers are in panic and have no intention of training anymore.

Casmian and Monado were separated by the Gobi Desert without any grass, without water or vegetation, and were dead within a thousand miles, without any creatures. In the past, human and material support for Monado or Vix was transported through the Nasra country, so Casmian was considered one of the safest places among the four countries.

Even so, everyone understands that the Nasra Kingdom cannot stop the orc army, and the sword of doomsday will sooner or later fall on its head.

There was a sound of footsteps behind Queen Monia, and it was almost three meters to stop. The royal guard chief Melken, who was slightly anxious in respect and a deep voice sounded: "His Queen, it's getting late, please get on the road as soon as possible. Brino's sea ship "Sea God" has been prepared for you, and five hundred guards are guarding the ship. However, the situation in Brino City is getting more and more chaotic. If we don't get on the road, the guards may find it difficult to control the situation all the time."

Hearing this voice, Queen Monia looked away but actually lost her focal distance and gradually came to her senses. However, her eyes did not look at Melken, but still stared at the city of Bernardo in the distance. Her already numb expression slowly turned into sadness.

Melken's anxious voice sounded again: "His Highness the Queen!"

Queen Monia, who seemed calm on the surface, could no longer control her anxiety and guilt when she heard Melken's words. She turned her head and glared at Melken, and said loudly: "You can hear such a loud voice, so deaf people hear it. Shut up!" After that, she turned her head and looked at the doomsday scene in Bernardo City.

The loyal Melken didn't dare to talk much for a moment and stood beside him with his hands down.

For a moment, except for the panic and hustle and bustle in the distance, the bedroom became so quiet.

a long time……

Seeing that the sun was already west, Melken couldn't help it anymore. At the risk of being reprimanded, he said, "Your Highness, we really can't delay any more!"

The silence was broken again, Monia seemed unable to bear the words of McKen. She turned her head and stared at McKen with rage, and she shouted hysterically: "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!! I told you to shut up!!!!"

The roar was hovering in Melken's ears. Queen Monia could no longer help but cover her face and cry. Tears rolled down her fingers, splashing onto the ground on the balcony.

Seeing that the dignified and majestic queen was so disobedient, Melken had to give up persuasion and continue to remain silent.

Monia cried for a long time, and her face was red and swollen when she raised her face, and her eyes were covered with bloodshot, which were usually clear.

Monia rang out in a hoarse voice: "Melken, you said, we are leaving like this?! Just give up those people who trust me so much, let them be in dire hell, and let them be slaughtered like livestock by those dirty orcs?!"

Monia said these words without pause, and had to breathe, pointing at the city of Bernardo outside, and said: "Not talking about the foundation left by our ancestors, nor the glory of the Casmian royal family, as long as I think that my people will be massacred and cooked, men are crying, women are screaming, children are crying, raging fire everywhere, corpses and blood everywhere, all the prosperity is burned..."

As he spoke, Monia seemed to have all the tragic situations that were about to become reality appeared in front of her, and she seemed to hear people's cry of despair in her ears. Her eyes were filled with tears again, and slowly shedding down her face.

The voice sounded again, with sobs: "I can't do it! I thought about it all, but I couldn't just sit back and watch everything happen! When all the frightened people faced the orc butcher's knife, they fled to a safe place. I can't imagine what kind of guilt I would live in in the second half of my life. Those desperate faces and those helpless crying will turn into nightmares that will always haunt me, and I will never be able to get rid of it until I die!"

Monia shook her head hard with the rain, and cried shrillly: "I can't do it, I can't do it!!!"

Monia's sad crying kept echoing in this quiet bedroom, shocking her heart and lungs.

When Malken thought of Casmian's bleak prospects and the misfortunes that people who could not escape were about to face, he was also sad, and he could not think of how to persuade and comfort him.

The heart under his firm face was filled with indescribable sadness.

After venting his catharsis, Queen Monia gradually recovered from excitement and finally became calm.

However, there was something strange in this calmness, as if it was too calm.

Wiping away the tears, Monia stared at Melken silently, her eyes gradually became firm, and she said, "Melken, stop persuading me. I think, I finally understand my heart!"

Melken realized that the Queen's decision was probably not a good thing, and was anxiously about to speak, but was interrupted by Monia's calm voice: "No need to say more, Melken, you should understand my decision. The original idea of ​​leaving has changed. I want to live and die with Casmian and all the people of Casmian! I cannot just leave them to a safe place. In any case, I will lead them to fight against the orc army and complete the last glory of Casmian. I think, instead of regretting for the rest of my life, I will not fight with them at this time, even if I die, I must be worthy of my conscience as the Queen and the people who trust me."

Melken didn't expect that things would change like this, and he couldn't speak for a moment.

Monia continued: "You are now taking Princess Lannie to Brino by boat. In any case, you will keep this last bloodline for the Royal Casmian. One day, I hope you can accumulate strength and fight back under her leadership, regain our beautiful Casmian, and avenge this bloody revenge for the dead!"

A blue figure suddenly rushed out of the door and threw herself into Monia's arms and cried, "Mom, I won't go to Brino, I won't leave you!" The blue figure shook her head vigorously while crying, and her dazzling blonde hair undulating golden waves in the afternoon sun.

Monia hugged Lanni lovingly, gently stroked Lanni's undulating blonde hair with one hand, and said softly: "Lanni, I don't want to leave you either, but at this time, if no one comes to lead these desperate people, inspire these desperate people to fight, everyone will lose the last little hope and fall under the orc's butcher knife. Be good, you must leave Kasmian by boat with Melken. As long as you can survive, your mother will be happy to watch you even in the sky."

Lanni raised her head with rain, her face as ice and snow was covered with tears, and her lips tremblingly said, "No, I don't want to leave you. If you can stay, why can't I? You have to fulfill your queen's responsibilities. Can I leave everyone behind? Even if you leave with the idea of ​​revenge, do you really think that you can still fight back to Casmian? My mother, my queen, you know that it is an impossible task!!!"

Lanni hugged Queen Monia tightly, cried and trembled all over, and said, "No matter what, I will never leave you. Even if I die, we will die together. Do you really have the heart to watch me live alone in this world? Can you really let me bear this hatred that I can't be relieved for life and live like this hopelessly??"

Listening to Lanni's crying, Monia's tears that had already stopped could no longer be poured out. The mother and daughter hugged each other tightly and started to cry. For a moment, the entire bedroom was filled with a tragic atmosphere of wind and rain.

Melken still stood silently, but his big hands were holding the hilt of the sword tightly, and the blue veins thrust and thrust.
