The Five Hundred and Twentieth Chapters of the Warning Signs in the Heart (6k5)
In front of the gate of Akart's mansion, the black-haired boy and the silver-haired girl dressed in costumes were talking. They carefully observed the movement between the two.
It is a compulsory course for nobles to praise a lady who has carefully dressed up. Every year, the scene where a teenager praises a girl during the New Year is a large-scale food scene for the maids, and this year seems to be no exception.
Before the gate, the black-haired boy didn't know what he said, which made the silver-haired girl's face turn red. Although Anna and the others were curious, they couldn't go to inquire, but it was certain that the current Alyssa must be good things happened.
The maids who took care of Alyssa are happy for their young lady, but Alyssa's mood is far more excited than Anna and others imagined. After all, what Roja said before can be said to be the first time that the boy was so clear said that he was thinking about the future of the two.
Before that, no matter what means Alyssa used—the stimulation of life energy or a conversation with her heart, Roja never made a clear statement of their feelings for the two, but just avoided the topic on the grounds that Alyssa was a child. , This time Katya assisted the tower and Eliza was very happy because of the support, but she was not very optimistic about the result.
Roja's position in her heart is that of her younger sister who needs to be protected. This impression has lasted for several years, and the brand is too strong to be shaken. Although the girl has been ripping off her cocoons in recent years, the specific progress Alyssa is actually very clear. Therefore, after expressing her thoughts, Alyssa helped Roja to smooth things out, and the two pretended to agree to get through the difficulties of Katya.
But what the girl didn't expect was that Katya's words still seemed to have some influence on Roja, causing the black-haired boy to take a step further in the relationship between the two, and also expressed his thoughts.
"Alyssa, I think it's not a good thing to bring a strong purpose to accelerate the promotion before our relationship matures. I hope that you will be happy in the future. The importance of this goal is much higher than that of the next generation. the goal of."
The black-haired boy who said so had a serious face, clearly expressing the importance he paid to Alyssa herself, and the silver-haired girl also understood this.
In Roja's eyes, Alyssa is a lover who needs to be cherished and treated, not simply a tool to reproduce the next generation. Therefore, the teenager is very resistant to the idea of Katija wants to combine the two because he needs a child, but he understands. After this, the girl's mood suddenly improved.
Although Alyssa does not dislike that a mother is a child, but if the loved one loves herself more than everything else, even the child she must have, it is naturally the best. Compared with the love in the center, the former is obviously happier.

Roja's true thoughts made Alyssa's heart down, her cheeks blushed, and she thought for a moment and whispered:
"Brother, if the elder brother thinks so, then I will support you. Let's pretend for the time being on the father's side."
"Well, if you can understand, then Miss Alyssa, can you give me your hand?"
With a smile on his face, the boy stretched out his hand to gesture to the silver-haired girl. Alyssa blinked when she heard the words, nodded and put her slender hand in Roja's palm.
The two put their hands together, and the atmosphere was very warm. Such a scene fell in the eyes of the maids, which attracted a burst of breathing and blessings, while Roja held the girl's hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, it is considered that the idea of Aliza having a child is temporarily dispelled, but what should I do in the future...
The boy who thought so looked at the girl's figure and had to say that although Alyssa was impeccably beautiful, her figure was of a petite and exquisite type, and the slender waist didn't seem to be able to bear it. Roja's type, as for what kid...
Although there is no problem with Alyssa in theory due to the bloodline, but when you think about it carefully, Roja still feels that it is too reluctant. Roja, who has loved the girl since childhood, could not bear to make Alyssa suffer, and the girl is indeed just coming of age in terms of age. Development is not quite over yet.
Thinking of this, Roja shook his head and threw the bad thoughts in his heart out of the sky, while Alyssa looked at the distressed Roja and tilted her head slightly, with a puzzled expression on her face.
"Brother?"
"No, nothing..."
After hiding the thoughts in their hearts, the black-haired boy and the girl chatted for a while. After a while, Katia also went downstairs, and the group got into the carriage, and Roja and Eliza shared a car as a matter of course.
Originally, according to the etiquette, men and women cannot ride together when they are adults, but this is the habit of two people since childhood, and the servants who support the young master will naturally not mention it, so this tradition has been maintained.
On the other hand, Katya looked at the two children who were naturally sitting together with a helpless smile on their faces. He didn't understand why the two were so close to each other, why he needed an assist from the old man.
In the midst of this question, several people entered the car one after another, the door of the mansion opened, the coachmen shouted, and the wheels of the two carriages turned, heading towards the church.
-------------------------------------------------- ------
The city of Akate has been famous in the Holy Nation of St. Mestre in recent years. It is known for its rapid development. Now it is technically the second largest city.
Originally, the main city of the five major nobles in the country was a big city second only to the Holy Capital. In the past, due to the poor economy of Akate, Akate City was not very prosperous. However, with Roja coming to power and implementing reforms, Akate became radiant. Vitality, as the main city of Akate, has also become increasingly prosperous.
With money, people's wages will rise. Such conditions naturally attract many people to come and settle down. However, because of the stable environment of the Church, there are not too many domestic floating population. Akate City Therefore, there has been no large-scale influx of people.
This situation continued until a year ago, after the civil war in the church country ended, the five noble families that had been inherited for thousands of years became four families, the Eric family was destroyed, and the territory was divided.
After the war, the Eric Territory was divided and thieves ran rampant, and the security was very bad. Many people who originally settled in the Eric Territory chose to move to Akate City, the main city of the new lord Akate's family, considering factors such as safety and stability. This set off a wave of population migration.
With the addition of this flow of people, Akate City can be said to have made up for the last shortcoming, and quickly began to reshape itself. Economic and trade, stability, urban construction also ushered in a round of climax.
The speed of construction of buildings can not keep up with the speed of population growth. This is a common problem in the rising period of major cities. Fortunately, Akart's family is rich and close to Rose, and he directly hired a large number of architects for emergency expansion, so it did not work. What a big problem.
After solving the problem of quantity, the next step is the test of quality. In the Holy Nation of St. Meester, there is one thing that cannot be ignored when it comes to urban construction, and that is the local church.
As a country that believes in Shia, the church can be said to be the key facade project in the city. Therefore, after the prosperity of Akate City, the church in the city was renovated and expanded under the approval of Roja, and a new building that can accommodate hundreds of People's Cathedral.
The construction of the cathedral brought the first landmark building to the city of Akate, which can be said to be a symbol of the leap in the strength of Akate, and in this new year, it has also become one of the most crowded places in the city. .
On the street, the carnival crowd was noisy, and inside and outside the cathedral, the devout believers gathered together to pray for the happiness and well-being of the next year. At the forefront of the crowd, Roja Akart closed his eyes slightly, with a pious expression. Respectfully.
The original goddess Shia, the goddess who created all things, is also one of the sources of Roja's skills. Roja is full of gratitude and respect for the benefactor who once gave him favor, so there is nothing when praying. Drain the water.
Roja's attitude was serious, and looking at such a young man, the bishop at the front of the church breathed a sigh of relief, everyone seemed to be several years younger.
The reason why the bishop is so nervous about Roja is also very simple, because every year on occasions such as New Years, the nobles of the church will be unable to bear it when they pray. Disrespectful behavior such as scratching their ears and looking around is very common, but they still stand In the frontmost position, it looks particularly conspicuous.
As one of the bishops of several big cities in the Holy Nation, the bishop of Akat City is naturally not low in rank, and is even on the same level as the lord in theory. If other nobles dare to do so, the bishop has the right to forcibly expel him. But with Roja, this right is the same as a joke.
Although Roja is not a member of the Holy See, his status in the Holy See is well-known, and it is not a matter of having an affair with the little princess Noelle since childhood. He recently defeated the mythical monster [Six Calamities]. According to the trail The news is that the Holy See John is ready to arrange for him to be canonized.
Canonization, this is not a simple word. For the Holy See, it can be said to represent the supreme glory and right.
Needless to say about glory, for the believers of the original goddess, there is nothing more glorious than the holy name before the name, and the rights are also very simple. The saints are the holders of the highest rights in the Holy See except for the Holy See. It is generally a title given to the dead. Even if the living saints are counted since the establishment of the Holy See, they are only a few in a thousand years.
Although due to Roja's age, this proposal is still controversial in the Holy See, and it may be put on hold for a few years before it is implemented, but even so, such an honor is already very amazing.
So strictly speaking, Roja is actually the head boss of the entire Holy See Reserve, and it is still lifelong. Not to mention that he is a bishop of Akat City, even if the Archbishop of the Holy City comes, he will give it for nothing.
Fortunately, the black-haired boy did not seem to be complacent because of his identity. Not only was his attitude modest, but he was also very pious in the process of praying. The head of the house, Marquis Katia, was as calm as ever, and the silver-haired girl behaved appropriately.
Looking at the three members of the Akart family, the bishop was moved by their piety, but he didn't know that in fact, except for Roja, Katia and Eliza came with a purpose.
As the head of the Akart family, Katya was born in the military and stood up straight on any occasion. At this time, the serious-faced Marquis looked pious, but in fact, he prayed with the heart of asking for a child for the family. Ding Xingwang, while on the other side, the girl with silver-white hair is solemn and elegant, but facing the prayer full of thoughts, it is the black-haired boy.
One seeks many children and many grandchildren, the other seeks a smooth marriage, and the two have a clear purpose. The two are naturally focused, while the truly devout Roja is grateful and feels the skills bestowed by Shia.
[Live to Death], this skill can be said to be Roja's magic weapon to face increasingly powerful enemies. It can make the young man who is riddled with all kinds of side effects really do his best to make a shot, which can be said to be a real death.
Blessings of the afterlife.
To this day, Roja still remembers the feeling of being promoted to source level 3 and seeing Shia’s phantom gaining skills. It was a warm feeling of lying on the lawn under the sun, which can make the mind peaceful and peaceful. The feeling, even in that dangerous battle, was still evident.
Of course, this skill is not only the blessing of Shia, but also with the support of the bloodline and the [Crown] source quality, it represents Roja's own skills to some extent, symbolizing the determination and courage to go forward, so although there is no Practice, but every time you use this skill Roja is handy.
For this, the black-haired boy also felt amazing. He has always liked to be familiar with this skill when praying, but what made him a little strange was that in this solemn New Year's church, today he did not have the usual feelings in his heart. Feeling peaceful, Roja, who found this abnormality, frowned slightly, and began to think about the reason why he couldn't be quiet.
Is it because there are more people here? Or is it because of the past, the reason why Alyssa was around?
After thinking about this question for a long time, Roja slowly shook his head, feeling that the unstable mood was not due to these external reasons. After all, even in a chaotic battlefield, Roja once felt the kind of thing that Shia brought. Anning, and after excluding a series of possible reasons, the dark-haired teenager's complexion gradually changed.
In fact, there is some official explanation for being uneasy while praying, such as having done something against Shia's wishes recently, or maybe facing some unrecognized danger.
Obviously, Roja won't do something against Shia's wishes, and the boy who was seriously injured after fighting with the [Lord of the Dead Tide] recently can't do it, so since it's not to be held accountable, the rest may seem It's an early warning.
"..."
Thinking of this, Roja opened his eyes slightly, looked around, and there was confusion in his expression.
The law and order of Akate is not a matter of Roja blowing. It is an exaggeration to say that the road does not pick up things, but it is basically possible to do it without closing the house at night. All were leveled by Roja.
Under such circumstances, or when the robbers are resting during the Chinese New Year, what danger can there be in the cathedral in the center of the city?
"Lord Roja, what's wrong? Do you have anything on your mind?"
"No, nothing, thank you for your concern, Bishop."
Looking at the boy who was suddenly looking around, the bishop hurriedly asked, for fear that he had done something wrong, but fortunately, Roja's distraction seemed to be caused by other reasons, and he had no opinion on the situation in the church, and did not blame him. what.
The reassured archbishop continued to guide the ceremony, and Roja had to give up speculation without any clues, and instead tried to be more optimistic.
Maybe... just some kind of coincidence, didn't sleep well last night or something...
After comforting himself with the idea of no nutrition, the black-haired boy continued to pray, and during the ceremony, the number of people nearby continued to increase, and the team gradually grew.
"...It's the lords!"
"The Marquis is also here..."
"That's Master Roja!"
On the road outside the church, people in the crowd continued to look at Roja and others on the high platform in front of them and shouted excitedly, including some officials and noble ladies.
Because the Akat family members, especially the male members, have not been in the territory for many years, the officials in the territory down to the public are very sensitive to the presence of the two, and many of the new residents who have migrated are seeing it for the first time. own lord.
And as usual, the high appearance of the Akart family has once again been widely admired by people. The new generation headed by Roja and Alyssa is madly harvesting the youthful hearts of young people, but it is a pity that their ending must be Completely heartbroken in the two people's love for each other.
The people who kept passing by caused more and more people to gather outside the church. Many people followed Roja and others to pray after seeing the people in the Akate family. The large-scale prayer meeting was further expanded, with the bishop as the leader. of the clergy were extremely satisfied.
The prayer of tranquility went on like this all night, and ended with the first ray of light in the east. People bathed in the rising sun expressed their New Year's wishes in their hearts as usual, and received Shia's blessing. The chant sounded, and Roja and the others finally opened their eyes and completed the last and first task of the new year.
-------------------------------------------------- ----
"Brother, what's on your mind?"
"Huh? Why do you say that?"
"Because...you always feel uneasy when you're praying."
"...That's it."
Inside the carriage in the early morning, the black-haired boy had an apologetic smile on his face as he listened to Arisa's slightly worried question. He didn't expect his performance to be so obvious. It's normal to feel like you're seeing clues.
As a result, this year's prayer meeting, Roja's performance was very unsatisfactory. The black-haired teenager's restlessness did not improve with time, but it became more and more serious, and the reason was not found until the end. .
Roja was quite helpless about this, but there was nothing he could do. After all, this illusory feeling itself was unpredictable.
After hearing about Roja's feelings, the silver-haired girl also frowned.
"It's really not a good thing to be uneasy when praying, but since you can't find the reason, it's better to stay in the best state and wait and see what happens?"
Alyssa, who gave such a suggestion, clenched the boy's hand, and seemed to want to make Roja more at ease, but feeling the girl's heart, the black-haired boy smiled slightly, but he didn't expect to be comforted by the girl on the first day of the new year. .
Roja, who was lifted up by Alyssa's words, sat up and began to explain the problem from another metaphysical point of view.
In Roja’s previous life, when he was uneasy when praying to God, it was generally considered to be a bad omen, but in Shia, this situation was likely to be some kind of intuition, or a sixth sense.
In Shia's world, intuition is a skill that does exist and has a great early warning effect. After Roja is promoted to high-level extraordinary, he will basically feel more or less before every major event occurs. .
If the discomfort during this prayer was due to this reason, then it meant that something unfavorable to Roja was going on or approaching, and the black-haired boy couldn’t help but think about it.
To this day, due to some ancestral reasons, Roja still has many enemies. Among them, the fallen ones are the top ones. The ones who were killed the most are the Shengjiehui. These two are the people who are most likely to be detrimental to him. , as for some other enemies, they were temporarily kicked out of the first echelon by the teenager.
Thinking of this, Roja sank and began to analyze one by one, and the first was the Saint Jie Club.
The Shengjie Society has not been doing well recently. The divine envoy was defeated by Roja, and because of this, he was copied from his hometown and greatly damaged his strength. At present, he has the most hatred for Roja, but normally he was beaten like this. In a short time, it should be quiet for a while, unless you are really dizzy, you will not take the initiative to trouble Roja.
And even if it is looking for trouble, according to the order, it seems that Rose's side should be the first to have an accident. The geographical location is that Rose is relatively south, and is closer to the sphere of influence of the Shengjie Association. If you look at it this way, the Shengjie will be funny. The possibility of committing suicide attacks seems unlikely, so that means it is the fallen ones who are going to cause trouble?
Thinking of this possible black-haired boy, he frowned slightly, but then shook his head, thinking it was unlikely, after all, Antonio was still staring at people.
Although Roja has been on vacation in the past few days, he has not been idle. He has actually collected some information on the mountains in the northern part of the Austin Empire. According to the information of the Akart family, the special action team led by Antonio is in the After locking the space, it has begun to steadily reduce the encirclement circle, and it may engage the enemy at any time.
Under such circumstances, the spirits of both parties were strained to the limit, and it was hard to imagine that [The Collector] would still put his mind on him.
After some inferences, the black-haired teenager threw away the idea and turned to think about other possibilities. However, thousands of miles away, the villain with a blurred face did not focus on the person in front of him as Roja thought. threat.
In the fog of the dark mountain range, a man with a blurred face was sitting alone at the end of the long table, and in front of him, a strange bird that looked like a crow and a falcon was standing on the table, a pair of blood red His pupils lit up, staring at the man as if conveying some kind of message.
There was silence in the space, and after a long time, the man at the end of the long table seemed to know something, and smiled at the strange bird.
"Haha, has Holy See John finally acted? They seem to want to get rid of me for that boy, but unfortunately, this is exactly what I want..."
The man with the blurred face said this with a mocking tone. After a while, he turned his head, looked at the strange bird in front of him, and said with a smile:
"This is the last carnival, do as you like, but don't forget our purpose."
Hearing the man's words, the strange bird spread its wings like a response, and left into the depths of the darkness, while the man with a blurred face also stood up and walked out. After a while, the silent space began to collapse, turning into Fragments disappeared.
