In the lounge, father and daughter began to communicate.
Outside Balfrem Palace, the adopted mother and adopted son were also having a conversation.
At the same time, on the only way to leave the palace.
Liana was waiting there first.
Over the past two hundred years, she has secretly entered the palace more than once and is very familiar with the place.
Seeing Rean's arrival, he didn't waste any time and said bluntly: "The conditions have been met and the road to the 'Black Star Cup' is about to open, probably in the next two days. You have to be prepared."
"Don't worry, I have been preparing for a long time, just for this day." Rean nodded, just as directly, he knew that Liana had good intentions.
This figure who has long become a role model for women is serious about being a good mother.
Liana looked at Rean deeply, and then moved her gaze to the companions around her, especially Laura, who was the heir of Alside.
Through those bright and determined eyes, she could feel her unshakable will.
"It does seem very reassuring, but I still want to remind you: there are differences between people. You bear a lot of responsibilities. These responsibilities are not unified, and some even conflict with each other. Do not forget this. live."
"I understand." Li En knew exactly what his foster mother meant, "I will handle all this before taking action."
"It seems you have really thought of everything."
There was a smile on Liana's lips, and she became more and more satisfied with this adopted son.
"Then let me tell you one last thing. The association has decided to fully assist him, and I will fight alongside him."
Of course, Li En, who had already experienced it once, would not be surprised. He just said: "Is it really okay for you to leak the secret like this?"
Did you agree to keep it secret?
"No problem, you can't hide this kind of thing at all, at least not from the 'Star Cup Knights'."
And Rean's team happened to have the eighth guardian knight.
"What I want to tell you is not this, but - chaos is coming, and no one in the empire will be spared. Protect important people, no matter where they are. If you are short of manpower, you can tell me, or directly Contact the 'Iron Fleet' and they will do a good job."
"Okay, I have only one request: protect your lord's back, no matter what time or place!"
"Eh?"
Lianna was stunned when she heard Rean's words.
"You don't need to say such a thing." Du Barry snorted.
Anais performed a military salute meticulously: "As ordered."
Enaya covered her mouth and smiled sweetly: "Ah la ah la, you are indeed our young master."
"What, what, what?"
"Little Lord?"
Things took a turn, and Rean shocked Liana's family, but Enaya returned the favor to Rean's students.
The identity of the young leader of the "Iron Fleet" has never been made public.
Rean glared helplessly at Enaya, who blinked and puffed up his chest, as if he had made a mistake and asked the young master to punish him.
Rean had nothing to do with this kind of person, so he could only use Osborn's usual style, pretend not to hear, and say his own: "It's getting late, we should go."
"Wait a minute." Lianna said hurriedly, "Rean, you-"
"The final volume of "The Black History Book", whether you have read it or not, I want to say: Maybe you don't care about your own existence, but the people around you do, and please work hard to live for them."
After saying that, Rean stepped forward.
Liana wanted to ask again, but the "Iron Fleet" did not give her this chance and came to her in unison.
"Master."
"What is the Black History Book?"
"Li...what is recorded in the final volume that the young master mentioned?"
The undisguised concern and the pairs of expectant eyes made Liana unable to ignore it. After all, she was watching the child grow up with her own eyes.
Taking a gentle breath, the saint closed her eyes.
Rean, do you think that "what if" will happen to me? Or do you want to be the "in case" that reverses cause and effect and changes everything?
But have you ever thought about what price you have to pay to be that "just in case"?
This burden should never be shouldered by you.
Liana was questioned by the girls, and Rean was also questioned.
As soon as they left the palace, the three "original students" Yuna, Kurt, and Altina gathered around, hoping for Rean's explanation.
This time, Rean did not continue to hide it.
Tomorrow is the opening of "Project Twilight". There is no need to hide and tuck in, and he is not being watched by the "black", so he has to be the "Riddler" Osborn.
However, Rean did not tell them all about his plan, he only told them the true purpose of the association and the prime minister.
Regarding the "mutual restraint" of "riding gods", the "refining" of treasures, and the necessary conditions for achieving them - spiritual veins and fighting spirit.
This was the emperor's acquiescence to the prime minister's accusation of "assassination" on Kalvad. Only in this way could he arouse public anger, enter a wartime situation, and gather enough "fighting spirit."
As the plan progresses, the struggle will intensify until all the Riding Gods gather together.
As the initiator of the Ashes, Rean and his companions from the old Class VII will also join in this struggle.
"Yuna, Kurt, Altina and Miao Jie, this is the last question I give you as an instructor - there is no fixed answer, and there are no restrictions. Just see with your eyes and feel with your heart. , think with your head, and then do what you want to do with your own will.”
"The last question?" Yuna and Altina looked at each other.
"Could it be that, instructor, you-" Kurt reacted faster than them.
"Branch principal." Rean took out the envelope that had been prepared from the inner pocket of his coat. "This is my resignation. From today on, I am no longer the instructor of the second branch of Thorz."
"Instructor?" Altina suddenly panicked and instinctively grabbed Rean's sleeve.
"Have you thought about it?" Alleria took the resignation letter with a playful expression.
"Of course." Rean nodded, "There is only one winner in the conflict. Unless I am willing to admit defeat and let Valimar be absorbed by other riding gods, they must become enemies.
I can only make choices on my own behalf, not on behalf of others. "
"What about them?" Altina protested, rarely speaking loudly, pointing at the old vii class following Rean.
"We are adults." Alyssa crossed her arms and smiled slightly, "Adults have full behavioral capabilities, make their own decisions, and bear the consequences of their own choices."
"Miriam is not an adult!"
"Yes. But I have graduated, and no matter which side I stand on, it is inevitable to join the war. After all, I am also an 'iron-blooded son'.
Therefore, Xiaoya, this reason is not valid, and it is not okay to have trouble. "
"Woo..."
Altina was not good at words, so she was blocked by Miriam, her big eyes full of grievances.
ps: Happy New Year, this year’s small goal: work hard to live until 2024.
