I Live Forever in Memory

"No, I want to!"

Unexpectedly, it was Emilia's firmness, and she continued firmly: "Before that, before the forest was frozen... I lived with many kind elves, and they treated me very well. Also, there is a very gentle person who takes care of me, and..."

She couldn't speak anymore, covering her head with her hands.Li Lin saw that the spar in front of her neck was shining slightly.

"Emilia, take a deep breath." Li Lin said, "Don't think about that yet."

"En... huh..."

Listening to Li Lin's words, Emilia took a deep breath with her chest rising and falling. Gradually, her mood calmed down a bit.

After about five minutes, she continued to speak.

"Later, Parker rescued me. I wanted to lift the ice, but I couldn't."

"I waited for a long time, wanting to wait until the day when the ice melted, but after waiting for a long time, it didn't melt at all. Even Parker couldn't do anything about that kind of large-scale ice, so I had to leave the forest and participate in the King's Day. .select."

Li Lin's heart moved slightly when he heard the words, "What's the relationship between the forest and Wang Xuan?"

"Because... Roswaal made an agreement with me." Emilia said: "He handed the badge he brought into my hand, and saw the gems on it glow. He said to me: 'If you can get If it is the throne, it will be possible to melt the ice in this forest."

It turned out to be the case.

Li Lin felt a slight chill in his heart. Roswaal had been designing Emilia since the very beginning.Using this kind of thing to lure her to participate in the king's election, it is concluded that she cannot refuse.

"Li Lin, do you think I'm despicable?" Emilia covered her face with her hands, her voice trembling slightly: "It must be... I actually don't know anything about the country of Lugnica. The other candidates It's for this country, and although I say it's for everyone's peace, I have this kind of selfishness...how can I be worthy of being a king when I am like this."

"you are wrong."

"..."

Li Lin looked at Emilia with red eyes, and said seriously: "Everyone who participates in the selection of the king has his own selfishness, not just you. And your selfishness is also to save others, isn't it? Only the king can unseal the forest', this is purely Roswaal lying to you."

Li Lin thought that what Roswaal said might be: When you become a king, you will have the opportunity to communicate with Shenlong. If you just ask Shenlong for help, what difficulty will it have for the omnipotent to unblock the frozen forest?

Emilia may also think so, but in Li Lin's view, this inference is completely untenable.Not to mention whether Roswaal, who had been preparing for many years when Shenlong appeared, would take action, even if he didn't, why would Shenlong help such a favor?

Only a few elves in the frozen forest were harmed, and they were not from the Kingdom of Lugnica at all, and Shenlong had no obligation to help at all.Should we pin our hopes on Shenlong's "good intentions"?Then Li Lin thought it would be better to mobilize thousands of migrant workers to break the ice with hoes and shovels after becoming king.The power of the masses is no joke.

"You said... Roswaal was lying to me?" Emilia didn't expect Li Lin to say that suddenly, and was a little surprised for a while.

"Actually, Emilia, you can sense that he's using you for some of his purposes, can't you?"

"..."

"As your supporter, he didn't stand up to speak for you during the king's election meeting. As for his usual attitude, politics, and even the discrimination against you by the people in the territory, he has no intention of solving it at all, right? "

If Roswaal really supports Emilia, he will definitely find a way to get her the support of the people, not to mention the whole country, at least in his own territory, right?But now he doesn't even care about the people in his own territory.

It's not that Roswaal doesn't want Emilia to be king, but he doesn't want her to be king in the normal way.

Just like how did Wang Xuan get here this time?The reason why the king was chosen was not because the royal family, except for a princess named Feilut who was left behind, fell ill and died for no apparent reason.

If it is said that this "strange disease" is acquired naturally, no one will believe it.All the royalists, including Reinhardt, have carefully investigated, but they can't find any clues.Li Lin can only consider Roswaal to be able to achieve this level.

This guy got the badges ahead of time, and when he checked out that Emilia was eligible, he went straight to action.What unknown method or poison was used to kill all the blood of the royal family, so that Wang Xuan could open it, so that Emilia had the chance to appear on the stage.

It can be seen from this that he is not the kind of person who likes to follow the steps.This also means that he does not want Emilia to become king after being loved by all the people, but wants to use some more efficient means-such as killing all other candidates, leaving only one Emily Ya, no matter whether the people like it or not, she can only sit on the throne.

It is worth mentioning that it is easy to overthrow the throne in this way in the future.

This is Li Lin's guess without any evidence, but he thinks it's not surprising that Roswaal really did these things.After all, his strength lies here, and there are probably no more than a handful of people on this continent who can be stronger than him.

Emilia was silent at the moment, as Li Lin said, she could actually feel that Roswaal didn't care much about her, and even had an inexplicable sense of alienation.

Li Lin understands the reason for this. Roswaal's actions are all for Echidna, and Echidna was killed by the jealous witch at the beginning, and jealousy is the person she hates the most.Then Roswaal, the teacher, naturally resented the Envious Witch, so it's normal for him not to like Emilia, who looks very similar to Jealousy.

Li Lin even felt that once Roswaal used Emilia to achieve his goal, he would have to abandon Emilia next time.At that time, her throne will not be stable, and it is too normal for her to end up miserable.

"I... can't help it." Emilia finally said.

Yes, from her standpoint, even if she knew that Roswaal was using her, what could she do.

"Li Lin, I also have a lot of questions I want to ask you." Emilia, who had talked a lot about herself, finally realized that she actually had a lot of questions, "You have to answer me too!"

"Okay." Li Lin nodded, looked at the glowing spar around her neck, and couldn't help but said, "Emilia, you... that spar is where Parker lives?"

"Huh?" Emilia looked down, and then she realized that the spar was glowing, and she was too focused to notice it just now.

"Parker hasn't appeared since he came to the sanctuary." Emilia looked at the spar and said, "I don't know what's going on."

"When you are in danger, he will appear, right?"

As Li Lin said, an invisible fist hit Emilia's abdomen. Emilia couldn't see it, but the fist stopped a few centimeters away from her.At the same time, the spar also shined brightly, and the kitten that I hadn't seen for a long time appeared in the next moment, stretching its lower body.

"Long time no see, Leah. And you, the guy who likes to mess around and cheated on my daughter several times."

"Parker!"

Emilia was overjoyed to see Parker appearing, "Has anything happened to you during this time? Why hasn't it been..."

"Well, something went wrong." Parker looked at Emilia strangely, as if he wanted to engrave her face deeply in his mind.

"Leah, although we have a lot to say, before that, I want to have a private chat with Li Lin, okay?"

"Hey...? Good, good..."

Although Emilia didn't know what Parker and Li Lin were talking about alone, she nodded and turned to go out.
