"That stupid girl believed that I was really a demon until she died, she was immortal, possessed magical magical powers, and was cunning and insidious, staring at other people's souls all day long, preparing to confuse the world."

He looked up at the starry sky, put his hands in his pockets, and leaned against the railing with a faint smile on his face. "So she didn't get married because she felt that her soul was already sold to me, and she couldn't swear to be with others for the rest of her life before the Lord. There was even a certain martyr complex all the time, and the people who wanted to protect her saw that I was not Let me lay hands on her people."

"..." However, Cecilia was only silent for a moment when she heard his words, and looked at her father who didn't know what he was thinking, but only showed a complicated expression on his face.

You have never loved me in your life, but do I want your children and grandchildren to pass on the legend that you love me?

"Later, I asked her why she agreed to my request in the first place. To be honest, before I asked that question, I always thought that I would get an answer within the limits of country, righteousness, justice, and axiom."

The smile on the red-haired man's face became more and more obvious, as if he could clearly feel the surprise he experienced back then after hundreds of years.

"However, she told me that it was originally because she wanted to eat pastries from a shop on the street outside, but the guards refused to buy them for her."

Cecilia was dumbfounded.

"But when I asked her whether she would regret her decision at that time, she thought about it and shook her head at me." Gong Ming said here, the smile on his face subsided slightly.

"Although the purpose has long been different from the original one, she was already sitting on the highest throne of that country at that time, and now she feels that her sister, the queen of the previous generation who was overthrown by us, did something wrong, and she will do more than that. A 'Bloody Mary' is better, so if she did it all over again, she would still stick to her choices, even if she sold her soul to the devil, she would bring prosperity and justice to her people."

"At that time, she was already an excellent monarch. She knew people well, and had a high vision." Gong Ming's eyes were slightly closed, hiding the emotion under his eyes. "She used her life to do the best thing she could do in her life. Even I am sincerely amazed by her career, respect her great cause, and even after she passed away, she still continued that contract. It lasted for five hundred years."

"I tell you this story in the hope that you can learn something from her." He raised his hand and touched her head.Looking at this girl, the girl in sight opened her blue eyes as clear as the sky, behind her was the bustling city, and the beautiful lights reflected on her white hair, with rainbow-like colors.

"It doesn't matter what the reason at the beginning is. After walking on the reason of your own decision, you must work hard to turn yourself into a person who is suitable for this path."

He and she looked at each other, and each other's figures were reflected in their eyes.

"Many people have been emphasizing the original intention, and have been asking what is the reason for embarking on this path. But I think, perhaps the original intention is not as important as many people think. The important thing is that the reason you insist on this matter now is What, why did you do this thing, based on the present, can we talk about the future."

"Cecilia, I already know what you were thinking when you first set foot on this path. But I hope you will not be obsessed with the original reason, but with your decision." The man said softly.

"You will encounter many, many difficult wars and many, many difficult things in the future. These things are really difficult, very bitter, and even just thinking about the difficult things makes people feel daunted, sticking out like a hot iron. If you touch your fingertips, you will be burned by it. Sometimes it is not necessarily these things themselves, but some small things in life that crush you in the end. But I hope you will not give up because of this, but in every difficult time After the collapse, I can stand up again and become stronger."

"This is what your father expects of you, understand?" He reached out to hug the girl and kissed her forehead. "It's impossible for me to accompany you all the time. In the future, you will have to go on your own after all."

"Is this a showdown?" However, the young girl was silent in her arms, biting her own lips lightly. "Tell those hidden secrets in front of me, and then leave my world?"

"Leave? Not yet. The purpose of talking now is just to think that Cecilia should become an adult." Gong Ming was silent for a moment, then shook his head. "I should still have two years to go, but in the future..."

He didn't continue with the next words, but the girl already understood what he would say if he continued.

"...Ni, have you really lived for more than five hundred years?"

After a little silence, the girl couldn't help asking in his arms.Even though she had already guessed in her heart, Gong Ming had already given her hints about many things, but when she actually asked this question, she still couldn't help feeling a sense of absurdity.

"To be precise, it is more than six hundred years. I have experienced many things before I came to this country."

Gong Ming nodded and admitted frankly.

"Then..." Cecilia hesitated for a while, as if she wanted to ask some questions, but she seemed to shrink back, as if that question had any great significance to her, and just asking it would cause some serious harm.

"Are you...really, my father?"

However, she still asked after all. In the embrace of the man, her hands were hanging by her sides, and she clenched her fists tightly.

"... You do have my blood in your body."

A little hesitation, as if Gong Ming said this after considering the words, but he gave such an answer.

He never lies.

"That's it." Cecilia misunderstood what he said as he wished, but the girl just responded softly, neither joy nor disappointment, her voice was very flat, and no emotion could be heard.

"Then Cecilia understands what Ni means." She raised her face and hugged her father tightly behind her back. "Cecilia still has two years left? Time to be with Ni?"

"Although the point of my words is not this..." Gong Ming showed a wry smile on his face. "But if you are in this aspect, it is indeed like this."

"After those two years, can you still come back to see me?"

"Occasionally, it's okay, but it's best to keep as little contact as possible. I'm a cursed person, and it's not a good thing to have too much contact with me."

"I see." The girl curled up in his arms. "I still have a lot of places I haven't been to, and a lot of things I haven't done. Can you go with me?"

"Yes, I will."

"Thousands of rivers and mountains, I will accompany you to see."

Two years later, Mandate of Heaven, Bishop's Office.

"So why should I be a partner with this daughter?" Teresa stood in front of Otto's desk, patted the table and stared wide-eyed. "Obviously Cecilia can get rid of him, why should I team up with this guy?"

"Because we think you are too immature, we need an experienced and powerful teammate to team up with you to reassure us." However, the blonde's destiny mainly just glanced at the girl in front of him, then looked Gong Ming sat on the sofa beside him drinking tea in silence, "Under such a request, there is no one more suitable for you in this world than Nicholas."

"There are a lot of experienced and powerful teammates." Teresa muttered, "There's no need to look for him, right? I've been looking at this face for seven years, are you tired of seeing it?"

"There are many experienced and powerful teammates, but Nicholas must be the strongest and most experienced among them. There is nothing to discuss about this matter. This is already a decision we have made." Otto said somewhat Touching his forehead with a headache, he looked at his granddaughter. "Really, we've been together for seven years, don't you know him? How many people want to be partners with Nicholas, but they can't do it. He is not someone who easily approves of someone. You should be honored. Such an excuse."

"I don't care about it." Teresa rolled her eyes. "Who likes to team up with him."

"Okay, this matter is settled like this." However, Otto didn't care about her words, and directly slapped the table to settle it. "Then Nicholas, Teresa, please."

"Well. I see."

The red-haired man replied calmly, and put down the teacup in his hand.

It's just inexplicable, when he put down the teacup, he glanced inside the cup with a slightly strange expression.
