People are at the junction, but they become the incarnation of the sun

Although he is no longer the first brother, he is still not good at dealing with women, otherwise he would not have been led by that woman Malika.

And his messiness was completely written on his face. Ariana looked at him, full of smiles.

He stretched out his hand and gently stroked his chest, as if teasing his heartstrings, and said softly: "Master Rhine, you must have accumulated a lot of fatigue from the battles along the way."

As he spoke, those tender hands gently pressed his shoulders, soothing his nerves.

“Tonight, let Ariana help you release.

Only in this way will you be able to better welcome the Red Lion's battle festival tomorrow. "

Her voice is very soft, as healing as the spring breeze in April, and at the same time full of seductive charm.

But what is rare is that Ariana's words did not make Reinhardt feel restless as he imagined. Instead, he calmed down instantly, and even the expression on his face became calm.

He immediately reached out and grabbed her wrist, stopping her movement.

"...I want to hear the truth."

"....What are you talking about? Ariana doesn't quite understand."

Although Ariana's words were calm, there was an imperceptible trace of panic in her eyes, and he could clearly capture it.

"Do you still need me to say it clearly? When you first met me today, did you have anything else you wanted to say?"

"...No, this is your illusion." Ariana's panic became more obvious.

"Really? If that's the case, why don't you dare to look into my eyes, are you afraid that I will notice that you are lying?"

As he said that, he stood up from the pillow on Ariana's lap and sat up, looking at Ariana who was kneeling on the bed and naked.

Just as he said, Ariana did not dare to meet his eyes at all, but lowered her head slightly.

"Now, are you still going to hide it from me? Are you not going to tell me?"

"..."

Under his questioning, Ariana remained silent.

Such a reaction made him sigh: "...I don't quite understand."

"Although you followed Lani and I because of Queen Malika's order, no matter it is me, Lani or Teacher Serian, we all treat you like family."

"Does it mean that Ariana has never regarded us as family?"

"...no."

Ariana shook her head, denying his statement.

"If that's the case, then I think there's nothing we can't talk about and discuss together."

"..."

Ariana still didn't respond, but there was a little struggle in her eyes under her hair.

Just like when I got the will of Two Fingers.

"If you don't want to talk now, I can wait for you."

Reinhardt sat there cross-legged, with his hands on his thighs, tapping the edges of his knees repeatedly, and waited quietly.

Anyway, it's still early before dawn, and the battle festival won't start until tomorrow night.

Moreover, sleeping is dispensable to him. It's just that sleeping can relieve fatigue, but it doesn't matter whether a little fatigue is relieved or not for him.

So, he can wait slowly.

The most important thing is that he feels that Arianna's matter seems important.

Ariana, on the other hand, kept her head slightly lowered, her fingers sinking deeply into the gap between her thighs wrapped in black stockings, her beautiful eyes full of struggle and hesitation, and she was deeply involved in the struggle to make a choice.

After a long time, she raised her head.

But that pretty face no longer had the smile of the past, but was full of bitterness and haggard, with a hint of relief.

The bright red lips were slightly opened, but she uttered an apologetic word.

"...I'm sorry, Lord Rhine, I deceived you. Arianna is unworthy of your trust."

As she said that, Ariana lowered her head in guilt.

But this sudden apology left Reinhard a little confused.

"I don't quite understand, what exactly did you deceive me about, Arianna?"

"...It's about my life experience, my origin..."

Arianna tried her best to keep her trembling voice as calm as possible, telling everything about the past.

Her life experience, her family, and her true identity.

She is a descendant of the Golden Dynasty. There is no doubt about this. She is also a finger witch chosen by Two Fingers since she was a child. She learns the two-finger prayer and serves as a finger witch to guide everyone and those who have faded.

And after Reinhard heard this...it would be a lie to say he wasn't surprised.

He knew that such a beautiful woman would not be sent to him for no reason, but he did not expect that there was an arrangement for Two Fingers to act as a finger witch.

I guess that woman Malika couldn’t even think of it, right?

And the most important thing is that Malika doesn't care, she and he are acquaintances and bedfellows.

But what do these two fingers mean? They actually plotted against him.

However, Double Finger probably didn't expect that Ariana would sell Him out in the end. Just like other Finger Witches, Ariana also fell in love with the faded person she served.

It's like being cursed.

"... Ariana is so sorry. Ariana has let down everyone... She has let down Lord Lance Sanks... She has let down Lord Lani, she has let down Lord Feiya, and she has let down Lord Serlian. ....”

"I have failed you even more, Ariana's god, Ariana's sun... Ariana's most beloved person... Lord Rhine."

Ariana's voice was choked with sobs.

"...I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

The big teardrops slowly fell down, fell on the thigh and smashed into pieces, slightly moistening the white sheets.

"So, you thought of this way to make up for it?"

Looking at Ariana who was already crying, he asked calmly.

However, it is quite strange that the usually elegant and dignified Ariana actually has a crying side.

It would be better if it were done in another way.

For example, being made to cry by him or something.

"...Yes, I hope to confess to my god, Lord Reinhard, Arianna's sins and the wavering of faith in you in this way."

Ariana said with tears in her eyes.

Ariana felt guilty for betraying the Order of the Sun, betraying her faith again, and especially him.

She really prefers the current Order of the Sun to the indifferent Two-Finger Church.

Lance Sanks' tolerance, Feiya's holiness, and Se Lian's kindness are all what she yearns for.

The most important thing is that there is Reinhard, a gentle person who shines like a golden tree on everyone.

"...But, what does it matter?"

"Eh?"

Hearing his sudden words, Ariana raised her head slightly, her beautiful amber eyes filled with tears and full of disbelief.

"Don't look at me like that. I think it's nothing. After all, you were a finger witch before you became my maid, so it doesn't matter whether you believe in me or not."

Reinhard shrugged, and a strange and embarrassing smile gradually appeared on his face: "It would be better to say that I feel quite ashamed to believe in me, the sun."

This is true. When he knew that these women had done this kind of thing, he couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body just thinking about it.

I was so embarrassed that I wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

You treat me like a god or something... I'm just a human being!

"...So, Lord Rhine, have you forgiven Ariana for my crime?"

"Well...."

Reinhard scratched his head in confusion, "This is not a crime, nor is it a matter of forgiveness or unforgiveness. No matter what, you are still on our side, aren't you?"

"Yes! Ariana swears here, Ariana will always be by Lord Rhine's side no matter what!"

Ariana suddenly stood up, knelt down in front of him, clasped her hands like a saint praying to the gods, and offered her eternal vows.

only....

You should put your clothes on first. What does it look like?

Reinhard cursed secretly and glanced at the discarded clothes on the ground from time to time before giving up his thoughts.

He flipped it over and covered Arianna with the quilt piled behind him.

Feeling the warmth brought by the quilt on her body, Ariana raised her head slightly and looked at him.

Under Ariana's stunned gaze, he said slowly: "...it's very cold at night in Galeed. Don't catch a cold."

"Besides, it's getting late. Let's rest first. You don't need to take this matter to heart. Just follow your heart."

With that said, he stood up and left the bed.

After all this fuss, he was no longer sleepy, so he might as well go to the market to see what Xiaomu and Slime were doing.

As for the two-finger thing, to be honest, he really didn't care.

I'm just a little annoyed because I was plotted against.

But sooner or later he will find it with these fingers.

However, before he could leave, his wrist was suddenly grabbed by Ariana.

"...Lord Rhine, Ariana is very sorry about what happened tonight, and I'm sorry for causing you any trouble.

However, let Arianna take care of you to bed. Tomorrow... you have to attend the Red Lion Festival, so it's better not to rest. "

As if she was not the one crying before, she returned to her former appearance in an instant, but those amber eyes did not dare to look at him and moved aside...

A trace of blush appeared on her fair and pretty face.
