When the protagonist of the otome game is unintentional strategy [system]

After eating tea, Gloria still had to hurry to finish the work at hand as soon as possible, so after obtaining the consent of Kolusta, she returned to the pile of materials and continued the screening task that was interrupted just now.

Kolusta, who came here specially to eat, drink, and meet his girlfriend, wandered around in front of the bookshelf for a while, randomly picked out a few fairy tale books and flipped through them, feeling a little bored.

When she rolled her eyes, she saw that Gloria was calm and did not work behind her back, so she boldly walked around the long table and slowly walked behind her under the eyes of the person.

Ah, so many files.

The brown-haired girl stood beside the back of the chair and stretched out her hands, gently wrapping her arms around Gloria's slender waist. She stared at the stacks of papers that looked rather spectacular, and put her chin on the other's shoulders in amazement, sincerely He said with emotion: "You are so busy, Le Kesi."

Gloria smiled, and inadvertently turned her head to rub her cheek, with a taste of interest: "No matter how busy you are, you should never be as busy as you, Miss Heir."

"Stop making fun of me," Kolusta pouted, and lightly tapped Gloria's forehead with her head, and said capriciously, "You nobles are very troublesome, it's obviously just a sesame seed, There is also a lot of long-winded diplomatic rhetoric, which not only wastes time, but also almost makes people dizzy!"

Gloria sighed, raised her hand and gently scratched her chin with the fluff on the back end of the quill, and said helplessly: "I must remind you—you are also a member of the nobility now, and you still say that Doesn't that sound strange, dear Miss Ruth."

"I don't care, I just do things more quickly and neatly than you!" Kolusta said angrily, lowering her eyes, but just happened to see the name of a stranger in Gloria's file.

"Hulley Hugh, 26 years old, a commoner in the fringe area of ​​Wangcheng, her father died young, her family was poor, her younger brother is ill but cannot be cured...to be determined?" She read out the words on the paper blankly, startled, slightly surprised, "Why are there so many other people's information... What are you doing?"

As soon as the words fell, she keenly felt that the body under her hands became slightly stiff, and the movements of the silver-haired girl's writing also stopped suddenly, as if her words touched some invisible switch, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly became clear. different.

"...Le Kesi?" Kolusta let go of her arm a little uneasy, walked to the side of the other party, observed her expression, and said hesitantly, "If it's inconvenient, you don't have to answer me."

Gloria turned her face to look at her for a while, her sapphire blue eyes closed and opened again, and after a while she seemed to have made up her mind and said, "No, there is nothing inconvenient."

"Perhaps it can be said... In fact, I have long been prepared to confess this matter to you."

Under Kolusta's somewhat dazed gaze, she stood up from her seat, her face slightly solemn, and she assumed a rather solemn posture, her voice was calm and slightly tense.

"Perhaps the vast majority of people in this country don't know... the surname 'Selentdis' is actually not as glamorous and glorious as it appears on the surface—in fact, it is born with a look of helplessness. The 'shackles' that have been removed cannot be stronger."

After hearing that familiar term, Kolusta's eyes widened slightly involuntarily.

She realized almost in a second that what Gloria was confessing to herself at this time was the family secret of Celentdis that had never been known to outsiders for a hundred years.

——No one knows better than Kolusta how important the practical significance of Gloria's changed attitude at this time is.

The fingers hidden behind the back of the chair were unconsciously clenched tightly, and her breathing became so cautious that it was almost stagnant. Kolusta pursed her lips and took a deep breath without any trace. Those pure golden eyes With faint excitement accumulated in his heart, he looked straight at Gloria who was still continuing to tell.

"...The rise of the Celentides family is because the first owner of this surname betrayed his beliefs and surrendered his obedience, and thus obtained profound magic, in exchange for supreme glory... "

Gloria spoke lightly, with a calm tone and a gentle voice, but Klusta heard some inexplicable and specious disgust inexplicably.

When she said this, she paused, raised her head and looked at the girl in front of her, took a deep breath, and continued slowly:

"And the object of the transaction with him is not a king or a dignitary, but a real god."

……

From a completely subjective point of view, Gloria thoroughly popularized the secret history of this family for Kolusta.

She seemed to be worried that the other party would not be able to digest such a huge amount of information in a short time, so she slowed down her speech thoughtfully, just giving Kolusta time to listen and sort out the known information on her side, and carefully The thinking is clear.

The Goddess of Deceit is an extremely low-key god. There are different opinions about her appearance, personality, abilities and other information. Even after years of constant disputes among historians, they have not been able to come up with a relatively unified answer.

From this, the mystery and concealment of this god can be seen.

Klusta has always been able to find clues in the system database and historical books, but because the Goddess of Deceit did not show up much even in the original plot line, even after such a long time, she has really achieved great results. micro.

It can be said that without Gloria's confession, it would be difficult for her to draw a specific image of this god in her mind, let alone figure out a way to defeat him.

——But fortunately, the former villain behind the scenes has been successfully instigated and officially stood on the united front with her.

And the reasons for Gloria's decision to switch sides are also clear.

First of all, it was due to doubts about the leadership ability of the Goddess of Deceit - after careful consideration, Reginald and his daughter agreed that the Goddess of Deceit who stayed behind the scenes all the year round did not have the ability to be a leader like the two goddesses of light and darkness or experience.

In contrast, the Nobili royal family, which has been gradually developing civilization over the years, has become the more capable one.

"She may not become a qualified Supreme God," Gloria said lightly, "Selentdis pursues long-term interests... and in our expectation, if the Goddess of Deceit takes the position of Supreme God, eventually If we unify the continent, then the previous civilization will be wiped out in one fell swoop, and the glory accumulated by the family for a hundred years will also be wiped out—this does not seem to be a good deal for us.”

Kolusta recalled.

In the original world line, although the Celentides family was not completely hidden by Posedolo, they also did not enjoy more satisfactory preferential treatment than they do now.

At that time, the continent was devastated and disordered. Whether it was humans or monsters, almost all were in a chaotic order.

The previously established strata were suddenly broken, and the scattered people could not be managed uniformly. Although the Goddess of Deceit gained power, she could not become a real ruler. She could only rely on Celentdis to be the puppet king.

The latter must regard the divine right as supreme, and he has nothing but toil, so it is indeed not more cost-effective than being a duke now.

Not long ago, Gloria had predicted this situation and made it the key reason for finally convincing Reginald.

"—However, for me... this is not the root cause of my decision to defect."

Kolusta's heart trembled, she quickly raised her head, and unexpectedly fell into those extremely gentle dark blue eyes.

"Do you remember? When we were young, we encountered a dangerous tsunami due to a magic riot." After the brown-haired girl nodded slightly, Gloria smiled and raised her hand to pat the top of her hair , succinctly said, "The cause of that tsunami is very complicated, and I won't go into details for a while... But I can tell you with certainty, Ruth, that its appearance has a very close relationship with the source of the holy power."

Under Kolusta's silent gaze, the perceptive girl lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "This also means——your hometown, Seaside Town...is the real secret hidden by the source of holy power. Place."

"..."

Kolusta looked at Gloria's lowered eyes for a long time, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sourness in her heart.

For so many years, she, who has been carrying the truth alone, faced Posidoro...how much pressure was she bearing?

The brown-haired girl bit her lip, tried her best to suppress the moisture around her eye sockets, and took a small step forward, getting closer to the other party.

She stretched out her hand, as if conveying some belief, and gently held Gloria's fingertips.

The latter let her hold her for a while, and after a long silence, he exhaled a shallow breath, and clasped Kolusta's fingers with his backhand.

The pair of deep sea-blue eyes and the brown-haired girl looked at each other for a long time, until the palms of both parties were slightly warm, Gloria just spoke, and whispered to Kolusta in a hoarse voice:

"... Ruth, do you know?"

Kolusta squeezed her hand tightly.

"The town of Seaside is not only your favorite hometown, but also the land that carries the fond memories of our childhood."

Her brows are gentle, revealing a slightly childish sweet smile, the expression in her eyes is distant and peaceful, as if thinking of some precious memory, every word she speaks is like the sun shining on the petals The kind of deep warmth that arises from time to time.

"I don't want to be a spoiler...that town has the bluest sea, the most beautiful flowers, the cutest cats—these are precious memories that I will never forget in half my life, and I want to protect it with you .”

The silver-haired girl smiled at her, and said softly: "For you, I will finally break free from the shackles."

The words were spoken with firmness, and with a hope that was hard to ignore.

Kolusta closed her eyes and wiped away a teardrop that fell from the corner of her eye at some point. She took half a step forward, stretched out her hand, and hugged Gloria tightly and gently.

"I promised you before... When you break free from the 'shackles', I will give you a gentle hug as congratulations just like when I made the promise."

She leaned her cheek on Gloria's shoulder, pursed her lips and smiled, and a few uncontrollable tears ran across the corners of her lips, and finally landed on the other's heart.

"Then, now, I will fulfill your original request."

Kolusta raised her head, and wrapped her arms around Gloria's neck as she lowered her eyes. She tiptoed slightly, closed her eyes, and kissed the soft lips of the silver-haired girl softly and preciously.

"I am honored to be chosen by you."

The author has something to say: Foreshadowing recovery: Chapter 55 mentioned the promise of "hug".
