Chapter 1572: Each Has His Own Thoughts (I Hide in My Bed and Don’t Want to Move)
The next day, Duanmu Huai walked to the balcony while tapping his sore waist.

"Thank you for your hard work, Judge."

However, Princess Norn had been waiting there for a long time. When she saw Duanmu Huai, she spoke with a smile.

"It's really hard work. After all, I have to till two fields at the same time... huh..."

Duanmu Huai yawned, stretched, and swayed from side to side.

"You've been working hard... Never mind. I don't think you've been working too hard."

After all, only a cow that is tired to death can plough a field. Looking at Norn's energetic and radiant appearance, it is impossible to tell that she has worked hard.

"Ahahahaha, just as the judge said, I am very happy now. I feel a sense of satisfaction that my long-cherished dream has finally come true."

Princess Noren said as she looked at the scenery ahead.

"That high and mighty elder sister actually showed such vulnerability under my hands, begging for mercy, crying, and letting me manipulate her at will... Just thinking about it makes me feel itchy... extremely satisfied..."

“But I think she actually enjoys it.”

Duanmu Huai yawned again.

"You two sisters must be suffering from some serious illness."

"Thank you for the compliment, but you don't seem surprised at all, Mr. Inquisitor."

Having said that, Princess Loren blinked curiously and looked at Duanmu Huai.

"Don't you find it strange what I did to my sister?"

"Not at all. I've seen a lot of people like you."

Duanmu Huai did not lie. After all, after traveling through time, he had seen many similar situations.

Like Ann and Gureia, Lumielle and Eclair, Mary and Shirley, Enisfia and Euphilia, Kaname Madoka and Akemi Homura, Tamaki Iroha and Nanami Yachiyo, Nishiki Chitsuka and Inoue Takina……

Some are mutual love, some are unrequited love...Now it seems that having one more pair of Norn and Freya would make no difference.

But then again, why do I always encounter this kind of combination?
Could this also be a manifestation of some kind of divine duty?
But it’s not a loss for Duanmu Huai. Where can you find such a good deal as buy one get one free?
It's just that compared to the others, Norn was more proactive. Duanmu Huai believed that if An had this opportunity, she would torment Gu Leya no better than Norn tormented Freya last night.

If Xia Li had the chance, she would probably do the same...

Not to mention Homura Akemi, the time-stop stalker.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this. What is the situation of the Demon King's army?"

"The army is out."

Noren still had a smile on his face.

"They have gathered a hundred thousand troops on the opposite side, and the Demon King himself has also spread the word that he will personally defeat you on the battlefield. This news has spread throughout the entire continent. Both humans and demons believe that this will be the ultimate battle that determines the fate of mankind."

“It’s pretty much the same.”

"Of course, that's what you said, but the demon king must be sure that he can win. He manipulated the information in this way to put pressure on the human world. After all, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. If you are really killed by the demon king on the battlefield, then humanity will never recover, and may even lose the power to resist."

"How stupid..."

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, while Norn continued to report.

"Now our country and the Summoning Nation have already made an appearance of sending out their armies... Of course, this is just an appearance. Because of the existence of the Divine Kingdom, we can't really send all our troops to the front. In fact, this information has already been manipulated by me and spread."

"The Kingdom of the Divine Protection, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. I remember they also had a hero? Where did he go?"

Duanmu Huai still remembered the girl who helped him break the Hero's Protection. He didn't know how she was doing now. He only knew that she left after that. As for what kind of journey they would have next... Duanmu Huai never saw them again, so they probably didn't die somewhere.

"You mean the hero Luti? According to the information I received, the Kingdom of the Gods claimed that she had died in battle and re-launched a new hero..." "Male or female?"

"male."

"That's okay."

Duanmu Huai was definitely not interested in listening. He was curious about Lu Ti because she was still a cute girl, but if the hero was a man, Duanmu Huai would not care. He had no interest in men.

"continue."

"Okay, although the various countries have put a lot of pressure on the Kingdom of the Guardian, the latter has remained indifferent and claimed that just in case, all of humanity's strength cannot be put on this decisive battle..."

"Although I don't care much about this kind of shit, do you think they will take the opportunity to attack other countries?"

"It's hard to say."

Princess Noren shook her head.

"After all, the people of that country, whether living or dead, live in accordance with the 'Divine Protection'. If someone really wants to do this, it is not simply out of profit or conspiracy, but more of an influence of the 'Divine Protection'. Therefore, it is difficult for us to judge their action plans simply from their character and daily actions."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Princess Norn was speechless. She was very good at guessing other people's hearts, but "protection" was another matter. It was like some kind of mandatory order, with no logic at all. It was like when you play the game of The Sims, the little people in it are doing their own things, but with a click of the mouse, they can jump into the river and commit suicide. There is no logic and no signs.

Faced with someone who seemed to be being manipulated, it would be useless even if Princess Norn was good at understanding people's minds.

Who knows what the god they believe in thinks. Even if it's not good for them, what if their protection is for this purpose? Just like the man who fights and kills people because of the protection, what good is killing for him? But he still kills people because this is his protection. How can you explain this kind of thing?

Unfortunately, the power bestowed by this protection is quite strong, so other people generally stay away from the citizens of the protected country.

"However, just in case, I have already contacted Her Majesty the Queen of the Kingdom of Summoning in private, and will be on the lookout for the actions of the Kingdom of Protection. The troop movements between our two countries in the past period of time under the pretext of a 'decisive battle' are actually also to prevent a surprise attack from the Kingdom of Protection."

"That's it..."

Duanmu Huai nodded. To be honest, he still felt that what he did was no different from what he did in other worlds. He didn't have the elements to be called the God of Joy at all. But who cares? He just had to keep doing it.

"In that case, let these aliens set up the stage. Since they are so confident, I want to see what kind of expressions they will show when their confidence is completely destroyed."

"I'm also looking forward to it."

Having said that, the two smiled at each other.

Princess Noren was in a good mood, but Princess Melti was in a bad mood.

When she first came here, Princess Melty was still confused about how Princess Norn had gotten closer to Duanmu Huai. But she soon found out… After all, Melty was not a fool, and she had seen the interaction between Norn and Duanmu Huai, so she naturally came to a conclusion quickly!
That is...Princess Norn and this brave man are in love!

Melty is not a fool, and it is not difficult for her to come to this conclusion, but after coming to this conclusion, Melty was completely confused.

How to do this?
Melty had anticipated the means that Princess Noren would use against Duanmu Huai, such as using money, beautiful women, power and status, or perhaps sweet talk.

But she didn't expect that Princess Nolen would actually send her in!
That's the difference between the two of them.

Although they are both the second princesses, Melty's elder sister is a good-for-nothing and it was decided early on that Melty would be the first heir to the throne. Therefore, although Melty is the second princess, she enjoys the treatment of an heir.

What about Noren?
She herself has no fighting ability, and her sister is a hero of magic. If she doesn't work hard, then she has no value in existence at all!
So, in this regard, Melty is no match to Noren at all!
This is like the difference between a person who has been pampered in a greenhouse since birth and a person who has been struggling in the bloody storm since birth. Noren will do whatever it takes to achieve her goal because she knows very well that only by achieving her goal can she have her own achievements. If she cannot achieve her goal, then no matter how noble, kind, and just the means she takes are useless. She will only be regarded as a loser!
This is completely different from Meltid's idea!

Melty's elder sister was reassigned to the throne by her mother because she did not follow the rules and messed around everywhere. Therefore, in Melty's view, the result is not important, what is important is that the process must be aboveboard, just and reasonable, instead of doing whatever she wants like her elder sister. In this way, even if it is accomplished, it will not make any sense!

One is a result-oriented person, the other is a process-oriented person. The two sides are completely going in opposite directions and it is impossible for them to understand each other.

Because of this, when Melty learned about this situation, she suddenly didn't know what to do.

Do I have to follow Princess Norn's example and send myself over there?
Is this right? Isn't this just a temptation? But the hero actually accepted it? How could he accept it? Was he deceived by Princess Norn? Or did he have to do it?
What on earth should I do?
At this moment, Melty still couldn't come up with a clear answer.
