Heaven’s Intention

However, can you go by yourself? I'll let Knight Sabide go with you! Although the large army of demons is no longer haunting the vicinity. Sir Demerkar was still a little worried.

Father, I'm already a third-level fighter, and I'm about to reach the fourth level. It shouldn't be a big problem to protect my little sister. Besides, I will bring a few guards with me when I go to the city this time. Don't worry if I have them to accompany me. The situation has been relatively stable now, and there are often troops patrolling the roads, so even if there are any problems, they can be easily resolved. Now is the time for the family to employ people, and it would be more appropriate for the Sabide knight to stay at home. Owenna considerately rejected her father's proposal.

Seeing that the eldest daughter insisted on going by herself, and what she said was very reasonable, Sir Demerkar had no choice but to agree.

It was already late December. The sun was shining brightly, but the weather was extremely cold. Gusts of cold wind kept blowing people's robes, making people want to wrap their clothes tightly.

The snow on the road has not completely melted, and the black land is exposed in the middle of the white snow, which is extremely eye-catching.

Miss, can you go alone? I will go with you too!

Knight Sabide sent Owenna and her party to the intersection. Until this time, he was still a little worried, and once again proposed that he escort the eldest lady to the city.

It's okay, Knight Sabide, you go back, I will be careful myself. Owenna smiled lightly, and she appreciated his kindness.

Because she has lived together since she was a child, she also knows a little bit about the other party's thoughts, but she has always known what she wants, so she can only say sorry for the other party's concern.

Shabid felt sad, but still had a faint smile on his face: Since this is the case, then miss, please be careful on the road.

I will, you go back. Owenna nodded.

Then, with a flick of the whip, the white steed she was riding immediately started to gallop, her flying hair fluttering in the wind, that look was really heroic and charming.

The cavalrymen following her saw her go on horseback, and urged their horses to follow.

Knight Shabid stared at the beautiful figure gradually going away. After a long time, he didn't look away until those people were too far away to see. Then, he couldn't help but sighed again.

Shabid has liked this beautiful young lady very much since he was a child. Her gentleness, heroism and beauty made him very obsessed.

Before,

He also understands his identity, even if he is the chief knight of the family, it is not wishful thinking to marry a jazz daughter, but it is still somewhat difficult.

The gap between the nobles and the common people does not seem that big. Only those who go to the side of the ditch will know that it is this small ditch that not everyone can easily cross.

Now, he has become a knight, his status is only slightly lower than that of Sir Demeka, and he is worthy of Owenna, but at this time, it is impossible to be together - because the person Owenna likes is not him.

Romon is a rare lord. With him, you should be happy, right? Looking in the direction of Tertashaw, Shabid was stunned for a while. Then he was talking to himself.

The sun was shining down, but his mood was only desolate.

Finally, he smiled wryly.

In fact, after becoming a knight, he did hesitate.

Joining Romon's side is a matter of course. Only Romon can provide the knight's hereditary collar.

After returning with Sir Demerkar, even his family didn't understand. After all, Sir Demerkar himself has at most one and a half knights, and has a son. Even if he marries Owenna, it is unlikely that he will pass the territory to him.

But, for the sake of this possibility...

He smiled bitterly, no matter what, he already has a family. Although his wife died of illness early, he also has a son. Since it is impossible, let's bury it in his heart!

Maybe, it's time to go to Romon's.

If Romon marries Owenna, of course he will guard her as a knight, if not, he can also guard her as a knight!

Thinking of this, he turned his horse around and went back silently.

At this time, Owenna, who was leading the people to the city, was also in a good mood. She rode her favorite white horse, urging the horse forward under the winter sun. all the way. I often encounter some patrolling human armies, and under the protection of these armies, the number of people traveling begins to increase.

On the ruins not far from the city, people began to get busy. Those were the people who were rebuilding their homes. After the situation was relatively stable, they began to repair and rebuild in areas far away from the devil.

After all, the spring of the coming year is the season for sowing. If the fields cannot be rearranged in time, then there will be no grain harvest in the coming year. This will definitely be a fatal blow to farmers who rely on land as their source of livelihood.

As long as there is hope, human beings can continue to live. Wars destroy houses and trees, and kill relatives and friends, but they cannot erase the optimism and strength in human nature. Life, after all, depends on oneself Work hard. Looking at those unpretentious faces, Owenna was quite emotional.

After walking for a while, we finally arrived at Aps City. At the city gate, many soldiers were checking the passers-by. Because the war caused a certain shortage of goods, such things as smuggling began to occur frequently. In order to combat this kind of behavior, the number of soldiers defending the city has increased a lot, and the number of female servants who check female pedestrians has also been increased.

Sorry, please cooperate with this lady.

When Owenna was riding a horse and was about to enter the door, a female servant blocked her way.

The soldier beside Owenna immediately stared, and said coldly: We are from Sir Demerka's family, and this is my eldest lady. Miss Owenna. As he spoke, he revealed the identities of the group.

Seeing this, the attendant quickly moved out of the way, apologized to Owenna, and let them go.

The reason for this contrast is all due to Owenna's aristocratic status.

In this world of strict hierarchy, the treatment of a nobleman and a commoner is completely different, and this difference is widely accepted by everyone. If one day, a nobleman is treated the same as a commoner, then everyone should be surprised.

The inspectors at the city gate intercepted low-status small businessmen and civilian smugglers. Even if there were nobles who smuggled, it was beyond their control, let alone their dare to control them.

Therefore, when Owenna and her party showed their identities, they naturally didn't dare to check again.

Owenna was also used to this kind of treatment, so naturally she wouldn't be surprised. What surprised her was the current atmosphere in the city, which was really strange.

There are not many ordinary people walking on the street, but it is still very lively. You can see gorgeous carriages passing through the street. Every time a car passes by, there will be a scent of makeup and powder drifting by the wind. Now Aps City It turned out to be a woman's world.

What's going on here? Owenna was very puzzled by this situation.

Miss, shall we go directly to the young master's mansion? An accompanying attendant asked respectfully.

You guys go first, I'll check the situation, and then I'll be there, let the second lady pack up, and when I go over, we'll go back to the territory. Owenna said, flicking the whip in her hand.

Yes, miss! The attendants respectfully agreed.

Owenna split into two paths with them, and she didn't rush directly to the little sister. Instead, wandered around the city for a while.

I can't do it if I don't go, why does it have to be like this, don't we even have the right to choose? I don't want to marry those people!

A woman's complaints came from the passing carriage, and Owenna heard it familiar.

It seems to be Sly's voice... Where is she going? Owenna was puzzled as she watched the carriage gradually go away.

Sly is a close friend of hers. She got married last year. Her husband is a lord and has a piece of territory of his own. Their appearance is not bad. I heard that their lives are good.

Owenna hadn't seen Sly for a while, and she couldn't help being curious when she heard the words floating just now, she urged her horse, and chased after the carriage in the direction it was going.

The speed of the carriage in front was not very fast. After only a while, Owenna had already caught up with the carriage, keeping a certain distance from the carriage.

She wanted to see what trouble Sly had encountered and why he had said such things just now.

To her surprise, the carriage turned around and stopped in front of the Church of the Goddess of Love.

Owenna couldn't help reining in the horse's reins, and let the horse walk slowly. From a long distance, she saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a woman came out from it, accompanied by a middle-aged man. young woman.

Although the distance was a bit far, she still recognized that the woman was her girlfriend Sly, and the middle-aged woman who followed Sly looked like Sly's mother.

What are they doing here? Although she seldom came to the Church of the Goddess of Love, it didn't mean that Owenna didn't know the situation here. She frowned and wanted to leave.

Just at this moment, another carriage came around the corner, and the people sitting in the carriage saw Owenna on the side of the road at a glance.

Is the one in front Miss Owenna? A slender hand gently raised the curtain, and the carriage stopped at this moment, and the woman inside showed a smile to Owenna, mature, only a middle-aged woman charming charm.

Hi, Mrs. Perry. Seeing that it was Mrs. Perry who was in charge of etiquette training, Owenna responded politely.

Why, are you here alone? Mrs. Perry glanced at her and said with a smile.

Oh, that's right. I happened to pass by here. I thought I hadn't participated in church activities for a long time, so I was hesitating whether to go in or not. I was embarrassed to say that I was following someone else, and Owenna passed by vaguely.

So that's the case. Mrs. Perry thought about it and smiled. Then you go in with me, there should be many of your friends inside.

Thinking of Sly who just met, Owenna nodded and agreed. (!)
