Chapter 16 Meiji and Sophia--

That evening, after having dinner in the castle, he walked alone on his way back to his room.

The departure time is set for tomorrow night. According to the plan, he should go to the market with Emma to buy the goods needed tomorrow, but Emma said that those things were left to her, and Megsy had to leave them to her.

So, what should we do now? He thought that it was a little early to go back to his room and go to bed. If possible, he would like to run to a Miss Rose Knight's room to "tote a story". Unfortunately, those ladies have been arrested by Leot for training these days. Of course, Meji also knows the intentions of General Wolver. The chaos in the kingdom is only the beginning. After all, it is impossible for Dilu County to be alone and can only treat them. Stricter training can keep them safe in the future. In fact, not to mention them, even Molly was arrested for training and even invisibly became the captain of the Rose Knights. After all, although she is not a Rose Knight, just breaking into Pingxia Island to challenge the Shadow Dragon is enough to get her respect from those ladies. What's more, her strength is the strongest of them.

Of course, without them, Meiji feels that this castle is really boring.

At this time, a maid came over and told him that Her Royal Highness wanted to meet him.

Sofia? Megsy followed her.

Since entering the White Sand Castle, he and Sophia have hardly been alone. On the one hand, after all, this is not Sophia's Rose Dew Manor. There are many rules to be followed, and he can't run to the princess's room for no reason. On the other hand, although everyone could see that Sophia was very depressed, General Leot still reported everything to her and gave her many problems that could have been solved by herself. Several times, it even made Count Feyne angry because he felt sorry for Sophia. Count Ferrane is the uncle of Sophia and Prince Louis. Among his sister's children, only Sophia is the one he loves the most. Seeing that she has to deal with a lot of affairs after suffering from the pain of broken appearance and disability, he naturally makes him very distressed and almost had to fight with Leot.

However, after talking to him privately for a while, he finally just sighed and stopped interfering.

After arriving at Sophia's room, the maid opened the door and closed the door from the outside after Meji entered.

Sfia was sitting at her desk, looking through a pile of documents through a dazzling light. After hearing the sound, she turned her head and gently shook the black veil on her face. After arriving at White Sand Castle, her burnt arm had been amputated by a doctor's operation, and some white spots and blisters on her skin began to recover under the healing of the best priest in Base Law County. However, the deep sword mark on her face always exists.

Meggie walked over, squatted at her feet, and gently pulled out the veil on her face.

"Don't look." Sophia covered her cheek with her only hand.

"What are you afraid of? You are much more beautiful than my mother." Megji grabbed her hand and moved it away.

Suffia sighed: "You don't have to comfort me like this. How can I be better than your mother now... Well..." She suddenly remembered that Meggie's "mother" was Black Annes. Although Sophia has never seen a real Black Annes, she at least knows that Black Annes is also known as a one-eyed witch, and it is said that its "one-eyed" is particularly large, occupying half a face.

Although Sophia's face is broken, from the perspective of human beings, it should still be much better than a witch with only a large eye, right? In this way, what Meiji said is actually the truth, instead of making up a lie to comfort her...

But why does she want to cry more? Is she really going to be beautiful and ugly with a witch with only one eye?

"For a long time, I thought that beautiful women should have only one eye, and all two eyes were ugly." Meiji sighed. That's really an unbearable past.

Sofia finally couldn't help laughing.

"That's right, it looks much better when you smile."

"Stop it..."

"There's no trouble." Meiji circled behind her, with her hands around her neck from behind, and her face gently pressed against the princess's ear. Sophia hesitated for a moment before hooking his finger with her right hand and leaning against him gently.

The two were silent like this, for a long time...

Time goes by bit by bit.

A sense of security that has not appeared since escaping from the royal city slowly filled Sophia's heart. No matter how strong she is in front of others, in her heart, she can't forget those terrible memories that happened in the royal city. Hot flames, corpses all over the ground, and chaotic family affection and the pain of homelessness. She knew very well that if Leot hadn't found a lot of things to do for her and didn't have time to think too much, she would have collapsed.

Moreover, she is also a woman and used to be a beautiful woman... How many beautiful women can stand that they are no longer beautiful?

A drop of tears fell on Megid's arm...

She finally cried...

......

The night is getting deeper.

They lay side by side** and didn't do much. Sometimes, just by snuggle up to each other like this, you can support each other.

This is the atmosphere...

But--

"Don't touch it, it's itchy..."

Someone is destroying the atmosphere.

"Well, my hand just slipped."

"Did you slip into my clothes?"

"This is called gravity." Meiji said while holding Sophia's still towering hill. Although Sophia did lose her beauty, somehow, she still occupies the most important position in Meiji's heart. His feelings for Sophia are completely different from those for others, and even different from those for Sully and Anna. He can't explain what this emotion is, love? Not very similar. Family affection? Well, he doesn't quite understand what family affection is...

"Okay, but you have to listen to me carefully. I had a strange dream last night... What are you doing?"

"Listen to you...mumble...talk...gu...ah..."

"Don't break my clothes."

"Goo...goo...Go on..."

"Well, I'm not sure if it's really just a dream. I remember that I suddenly came to a strange forest where there was no day, and there was always a round moon hanging in the sky. There were many shining little people on the tree. They kept falling down, fell to the ground, shook their heads and disappeared. I keep running there, but I can't find the way..."

At this time, Meji had stopped the baby's move, got out of Sophia's clothes and looked up at her in surprise.

"Then, a woman appeared, wearing a beautiful green dress, very beautiful. Her ears are sharp, and there is a pair of butterfly-like wings behind her. Many people kneel to her and even sacrifice the life of a sinner to her..."

"Deads?"

"Is there really such a person?" The princess lowered her head in surprise and looked at the teenager half lying on her chest.

"It's not a man, but a god." Meiji explained to her, "She is a goddess in the fog forest, and she is the gods sacrificed by Drui. It is said that she can cultivate the forest from nothingness with clear water and is also the guardian of nature. During the ruins of the heavenly garden, she appeared with Gulavia, the god of war, and saved us..."

"I heard Molly say this." Sophia whispered, "So, what I saw in my dream was Fog Girl Forest?"

"Hmm." Meiji asked, "And then? What else do you dream about?"

"She took me to a mysterious place, where there was a beautiful palm tree and a giant red feathered bird perched. Suddenly, the palm tree burned, and all the feathers on the giant bird turned into flames. I was very scared at that time, and I also realized that I might be dreaming, so I struggled to wake up. But the beautiful woman with wings said to me: 500-year-old rebirth is about to begin. In the early Spring Festival next year, come here with your future husband and be reborn like it. Then I woke up."

"That bird should be *. It and Kachidero are the most horrible in the fog forest... Wait a minute, that's not the point. Your future husband? Who is he?" Meiji is very jealous. He felt very uncomfortable at the thought that there would be other men lying on Sophia and playing baby sucking like him in the future.

However, Sophia just looked at him fixedly, with strange eyes.

"...is it me?" Meiji asked in a low voice.

Suffia sighed and gently hugged him with that hand.

Indeed, in the prophecy of the old man Urenos, Meggie will become the person she will marry in the future. However, after the battle of the royal city that almost killed her, she is no longer the beautiful princess who easily believes in the so-called fate. In fact, as long as you calm down and think about it, you can find that Mr. Uno's two predictions about her are really problematic.

He predicted that he would become the hope of the kingdom, let alone talk about this. After all, no one can be sure what the future will be like. But he predicted that he would become one of Megsy's harem, and on the surface, this prediction was close to being realized. But looking back, what would happen if Mr. Uno hadn't told her this prophecy?

Then, when she was in Longenburg, she would not care too much about this scoundrel of unknown origin, or even look at it a few more. And the series of things that happened later will have nothing to do with him. She could not let Meggie live in her Rose Dew Manor, let him participate in the snake-haired banshee incident, and arranged for him to join the team of assassinating Wuchen. Without this series of contacts, Meji would not have entered the king city in the midst of war in order to save her, then she is likely to really die...

That is to say, it was because the former court magician told her the prophecy that she believed it that things moved forward step by step according to the so-called fate. If she didn't believe it from the beginning, will that prophecy come true?

In this way, it is not the "prophecy" that heralds "fate", but because of the existence of that "prophecy", the so-called "fate" has become real!

"What are you thinking about?" Meiji looked at her in silence puzzledly.

"I'm thinking..." Sophia suddenly lifted her dress and put his whole head in. "You can't escape..."

The sound of sucking came from inside her clothes.

Perhaps, whether it is the so-called fate or prophecy, it is really something irrelevant. What people need to know is what they want to do and what they like to do... Just like now that she likes the feeling of being sucked by her little lover like a child.

"Meggie, do you think my dream is really just a dream? Or the oracle given to me by the forest goddess named Deliades?

Meggie answered vaguely and didn't know what she wanted to say. One of his hands has slipped into Sophia's thigh.

"She let us enter the fog girl forest during the Spring Festival, but there is no such festival in the Kingdom's common Noswell calendar..."

"That's the Kyle festival. This year is over, and the next time will be in three months." Meiji came out and looked at her doubtfully, "Do you want to go?"

"She said that I can be reborn like *..." Sophia couldn't help covering the scar on her face again. What kind of rebirth will it be?

Meggie calmed down and soon realized her mood. No matter how strong she is, as a woman, she still hopes to recover her beauty, and a god may be able to help her. Although as a princess in this theist kingdom, she should not have believed in the heretical gods believed by the Kyle people, it is inevitable that people will have hope for something that they should not have.

"Well, Sophia, I think I already know what the forest goddess did for us to go to the fog forest."

"What is it?" The princess asked curiously.

"Obviously, she is telling you that you will give birth to a bunch of chirping little ghosts for me during the Spring Festival," Meiji began to peel off her dress. "And the fog girl forest is a good place to have children. After all, the fathers of these little ghosts grew up there."

"Falous... Even if I'm pregnant now, it's impossible for me to have a baby for you in the Spring Festival three months later..."

"So we should step up!"
