Chapter 321 A Journey Without a Companion

"Why are you saying these things all of a sudden?"

Zephirion stared at Lilith with an extremely gloomy face. The horse didn't even dare to snort at this time and froze like a piece of wood again. Under the stars and the moon, everything was quiet.

"Are you going to strangle me again?" Lilith looked at Zephirion with a numb expression. Even though she told herself again and again not to treat this thing as a human being, she was still often exhausted by the black dragon's moodiness. In the past, she was willing to make jokes and get away with it, but she was really not in the mood at this moment.

Is it a coincidence... Zephirion stared at the girl on the ground. He had heard these words once before and would never forget them.

Because the person who said this really left him and left, the most annoying guy, the one he didn't even want to mention...

"... whatever you want." Zephirian suddenly lost interest, as if he had lost all his strength and means. "Go wherever you want!"

He turned around and transformed into a giant dragon in the night, soaring into the sky with a howling gale. The leaves on both sides of the road were rustling. Lilith covered her face to block the dust, and when she opened her eyes again, the black dragon had already flown to the horizon, getting smaller and smaller.

——He let her go? Lilith suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then came fatigue. Although the injuries she had suffered in Ozler had healed, she still felt tired, as if a part of her flesh and blood had remained in Ozler forever and was thrown into the flames together with Sean.

Lilith lay down and closed her eyes, but she couldn't fall asleep. Would that Fustwin really handle the crisis on the east coast as Zephirian said? It was hard for her to agree with the stupid dragon's guess, because Catherine never mentioned -

Forget it, Catherine had never mentioned anything to her in the first place, that woman is really tight-lipped! Lilith turned over irritably, thinking about it all by herself but couldn't figure it out.

It was so quiet - she suddenly realized that this was the first time she had truly traveled alone since she came into this world. In the past, she was always accompanied by people, and everyone could discuss any problem. Even in the lonely and dark night, at least there was a gargoyle quietly by her side.

Lilith pulled the blanket over her head - it turned out that the journey without a companion was so long and boring.

…………

Russell House, Highgarden.

"You're not coming back for a while?" Knight Russell looked surprised. He took the letter from Daniel, opened it and read it carefully.

"Yes, Brother Andre thinks he is more needed there, Grandfather, there..." Daniel looked at Knight Russell, wanting to ask him if he really knew the situation there, and whether he still decided to throw him there without knowing anything even if he knew. However, Knight Russell was reading the letter in his hand carefully and did not notice his confusion.

"Then why did you come back?!" A sharp voice sounded, Daniel was stunned and looked over -

"Mother, I..." Daniel stammered, looking at his mother in a black dress, who was staring at him with dissatisfaction.

"Andre knew that he should stay on the front line to fight for Her Royal Highness the Princess, but you left your brother behind and came back alone!" Daniel's mother was still young, but she had already developed some nasolabial folds on both sides of her nose, pulling her facial features downward, making them look sharp and fierce when she spoke.

Daniel was suddenly questioned by his mother in front of all the family members. He felt extremely ashamed. His face turned red, and he buried his head and was unable to speak.

"Oh, don't say that, Matilda." Angel's mother put down her teacup and glared at her widowed sister-in-law with disapproval. "Andre is already an adult, he can be responsible for his own choices, but Daniel is still a child, he still has to finish his studies, right?"

"Yes, yes... I'm about to start school, mother." Daniel heard someone find a suitable excuse for him and quickly responded.

"You know, Angie..." Angie's mother rubbed her temples in pain, "Her Highness the Princess is still in Gloria. If Angie is not here, we have to leave someone by her side. Daniel has a heavy responsibility."

When Lady Matilda heard what Angel's mother said, she finally suppressed her anger, glared at Daniel, and said nothing more.

Only after Knight Russell finished reading the letter did he have time to deal with the undercurrents in the room.

"Cecil is right. There should be someone beside Her Royal Highness the Princess." He passed the letter to Angel's father and said casually, but this made Lady Matilda's face even uglier. She lowered her head as if to cover up, but no one actually cared.

"Father, this..." Andre's father quickly read the letter sent by Andre. In the letter, he described Ozler's current critical condition and hoped that the family could provide more help.

"It's time to have a good discussion." Knight Russell said in a deep voice. The palace was a mess these past few days and he had no time to take care of his beard. Now he finally returned home to rest for a while and had time to meet and talk with his family.

The king fell down again. It was unknown whether there would be a turnaround this time. But no matter what, the balance was gradually tilting towards Duke William's family. They really should show more sincerity...

"Well, Daniel, you've worked hard in this line of work, and you've done a good job. Duke William and I met in the palace, and he mentioned you specifically." Knight Russell seemed to have finally thought of his grandson in front of him, and he casually praised him. Before Daniel had time to be happy, he heard him continue to say -

"Your mother is very worried about you. Please spend more time with her before school starts."

"...Yes, Grandfather." Daniel admitted it obediently and followed his mother with a grim look on her face out of Knight Russell's reception room.

"Mother." Daniel looked at the lady walking quickly in front of him and felt terrified.

"You are so useless!" Mrs. Matilda was unwilling to wait even a second. As soon as she walked under the tree in the garden, she lowered her voice and began to blame her son.

"They are discussing something, and you can't even get a seat to listen!" Madam Matilda's face was ugly, and her sharp eyes were full of disappointment! "Why don't you stay in Ozler? That's your best chance!"

Daniel opened his mouth, unwilling to admit that he was afraid of being left in Ozler, and was even glad that he could come back. His mother had no idea what a hell Ozler was like...

"...The princess also needs people around her. After all, she still needs to complete her studies in Goletia." Daniel tried to explain the reason.

"Hmph..." His mother sneered, "Is this an honorable duty? Don't you understand, Daniel? You are replacing Angie's job! Even Angie can do it!"

Daniel was speechless in the face of his mother's rebuke. Although he blushed after being scolded by his strong-willed mother, he couldn't help but think of Angel who was staying safely in the temple.

Andre stayed at the front, Sean died, and Lilith is now missing, and maybe she will end up like the twins...

"Maybe..." Daniel looked dazed, "Angie is the luckiest one."
