"Roy, how did you survive after jumping off the cliff?" Alessia asked curiously.
Although there has always been news about Roy, Aleshia is still curious about his experience. Time flies, and it has been two years.
Walking beside Roy, Alessia seemed to be back in Borabel again.
"That day, I fell into a river..." Roy accompanied Alessia for a walk, while recounting his experiences over the past two years.
From being chased into a desperate situation until now, Roy only skipped some secrets that were inconvenient and unnecessary to talk about, and roughly recounted the entire experience.
Alexia listened with interest.
Compared with the information she knew, Roy's own account was naturally clearer and more specific. Until now, she knew many things that she had never known before.
Stuck into a desperate situation, the battle of Meiding City... one after another, every time she heard about the thrilling part, Aleshia couldn't help but raise her heart to her throat, and felt that her palms were all sweaty. And when she heard
When Roy was finally safe and sound, or even a blessing in disguise, a happy smile would appear on her face unconsciously.
After hearing Roy's words, Aleshia breathed a sigh of relief and felt fascinated for a moment: "I didn't expect your experience to be so tortuous."
Roy smiled and asked, "What about you?"
"Me?" Alessia sighed, "I'm much simpler."
"On weekdays, I spend most of my time in the Saint's Palace," Aleshia walked along the path leading to the garden. "Every six months, I only have a few days of vacation to go back to the palace to visit my father and mother...
"
As Alessia narrated, the simple, boring, and even somewhat depressing life of a young girl emerged before Roy's eyes.
In fact, he was not completely ignorant of Alessia's situation.
As an imperial princess, Aleshia is a star that attracts much attention both among the upper-class nobles and lords and among the lower-class common people.
Everyone is keen to talk about everything about the princess. Her beauty, her clothes, what she has said, who she has danced with, which banquet or ceremony she will attend, and so on.
Naturally, everything about her in the Holy Lady's Hall is a hot topic.
There are rumors in the streets that since Augustus was promoted to Paladin, the attitude of the Holy Lady Temple towards the Solan royal family has changed greatly. Now the temple is divided into two factions. One part insists on the tradition and neutrality of the Holy Lady Temple.
, while the other part believes that the Holy Lady Temple should form an alliance with the Langris family.
The latter group of people put a lot of pressure on Alessia. In the eyes of these people, Alessia's existence has become a bargaining chip in exchange for benefits.
It can be seen from this that Alessia's situation in the Holy Maiden Temple is not optimistic.
However, Roy still didn't expect that Aleshia would be under such great pressure. She should have been carefree and free, but now she was like a caged bird.
Others were envious of her noble status and jealous of her beauty, but they didn't know that it was these that tied her up like ropes, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She must attend various public occasions and keep her smile; she must make sacrifices to try her best to maintain the support of the Holy Lady Temple to the royal family; she must remain silent and let others dictate her life. She must also make sacrifices in the future
One day, it was fought over like a vase.
This is the fate of the imperial princess.
Everything seemed to have been doomed from the moment she was born.
At this time, Roy finally understood why Alessia took such a trip two years ago. For her, it was the last time she flew freely before entering the golden birdcage.
Listening to Alessia's story, Roy suddenly felt that he, who had been living in the mountains and forests since childhood, was not actually the worst offender.
My childhood was far happier than Alessia's.
However, what Roy didn't expect was that as Alessia's chatter box opened up, the rhythm of the chat between the two completely entered the "princess's confiding" time.
Roy couldn't answer the question at all.
At first, Alessia's topic was limited to her experiences, but she usually had few people to talk to, and she was completely unguarded against Roy, so once she started chatting, she couldn't stop talking.
Often while talking, she would think of an interesting topic and then turn aside. When she brought it back again, she would forget where she had talked before.
Every time this happens, she sticks out her tongue and looks embarrassed.
However, after Roy reminded her, she chirped happily again. The interesting things in the palace, the teachers of the Holy Maiden Hall, how to learn magic, there were so many details.
Even when he accidentally sprained his foot one day, or when he was squeezed out by a classmate from the Holy Maiden Hall and secretly teased him, he told Roy about it.
So in the end, Roy discovered that Alessia was like a different person.
At this time, she was no longer the dignified and smiling princess, no longer the most admired beauty in the mainland. Everything about her became light and transparent with these trivial things.
Her nagging little complaints and crisp laughter that burst out from time to time made her look like an ordinary girl next door.
Talking and laughing, the two of them unknowingly walked through the garden, passed the corridor, and walked along the curved wall of the main building to the gate of the Grand Duke's castle.
Another burst of enthusiastic noise came from outside.
Alessia listened intently, and a light suddenly flashed in her eyes.
She took Roy's hand and said, "Let's go out and take a look!"
Roy was stunned. Before he could agree or object, he was already pulled out of the castle gate by her and ran down the mountain along the hillside road.
Arriving at the city streets, Alessia was like a bird taking flight. She put on an exquisite banshee mask, covering the part above her nose. Then she pulled Roy along without any explanation and squeezed into the crowd.
There is a float parade taking place on the street.
A float passed in front of the two people. Driven by magic power, the float continued to bloom with the illusion of hundreds of flowers. Among the flowers, five girls in colorful dance clothes were dancing to wonderful music. Hundreds of thousands
Phantom butterflies were dancing and circling around them.
And this is just the first one. Behind, there are dozens of floats of various kinds, as well as teams composed of drummers, trumpeters, dancers and even clowns.
These were originally only seen on Miracle Day, but in order to celebrate the victory in the battle against the devil, they were all out. For a time, it was just a dazzling array of decorations that made people overwhelmed.
Alexia was so excited that she swam among the crowd like a flexible fish.
"Look, clown!"
"Wow!"
"This way, Roy, look quickly."
Like a puppet with strings pulled, Roy followed Alexia around the bustling streets. As he ran, the sun shone in front of him, making it difficult for him to see the beautiful world. But he could see Alexia.
There are also tiny hairs on Ya's profile, her auricles.
And that banshee mask shone brightly in the sunlight. Set off by the smile on the corner of Alessia's mouth, it showed a kind of wanton monster.
Masks are commonly used accessories for aristocratic women. Almost every aristocratic lady has her own mask in her space ring.
Roy didn't know why Alessia chose such a mask. But at this moment, he suddenly had a feeling that the banshee bathing in the sun was her truest side.
The grand procession reached its climax after several prayer times.
Adolf led the army into the city.
As the mighty and majestic knight teams passed by, people went completely crazy. Countless flowers were scattered like raindrops, and cheers of "Long Live the Empire" resounded through the sky.
At this time, Aleshia and Roy had also arrived at the south gate where the army entered the city.
The two of them stood side by side in the crowd, watching Adolf riding into the city, listening to the excited shouts of the people around them, and couldn't help but smile at each other. But when Roy turned his head to look at Adolf again, he didn't notice that Ellexi
Ya's eyes never left his side.
It wasn't until Roy noticed it and turned his head that Alexia quickly looked away.
