Chapter 776: Chapter 509: Lord and Princess on the City Wall_1
“In , is there another possibility?”
Hearing Leo Ray’s sowhat inexplicable words, Ariel Watson raised her drooping eyebrows and looked at Leo Ray with a puzzled face, saying, “What do you an by that, stranger from the Otherworld?”
“A possibility that could both put an end to the power struggle in the Royal Capital and restore Coldfla to its forr glory, and also allow you to return to the Royal Capital and reunite with your father.”
Gazing straight into Ariel’s bewildered eyes, Leo Ray said with a faint smile.
At the mont, no Coldfla soldiers were around on the city wall where Leo Ray and Ariel Watson stood, only their subordinates by their side.
Therefore, it was the perfect ti to talk to Ariel.
“Are you telling the truth?!”
Upon hearing this, Ariel’s eyes instantly brightened like gems, incredulously asking.
However, that brilliant light vanished in an instant, and a shadow of gloom erged on Ariel’s delicate face, “Don’t make fun of . How could that be possible?”
At this mont, Ariel was well aware.
Compared to her three royal brothers who dominated the Royal Capital, her strength was just a drop in the ocean.
After all, their territories encompassed not just the Royal Capital and its surrounding areas but all of Coldfla.
This imnse power disparity felt like countless mountains weighing on her, making it difficult for her to breathe, let alone anything else.
“Before the start of this fortress defense battle, even Lord White himself probably didn’t believe that we would achieve such a great victory.”
With a faint smile, Leo Ray’s eyes shifted to the jubilant Coldfla soldiers not far away.
And then he continued indifferently, “The victory we have right now has already proven everything. It is precisely because you, as the Coldfla Fifth Princess, appeared, that the impossible beca possible.”
With that said, Leo Ray’s gaze fell back on Ariel.
He smiled, “If it wasn’t for your insistence to co to this border area, perhaps the Saint Night Army would have broken through these three fortresses long before dawn, right? If that were the case, how could these three fortresses, big and small, have witnessed the dawn of victory?”
Without a doubt, Leo Ray’s reason for saying this was solely to make Ariel, the Coldfla Fifth Princess, aware of her importance.
After all, before this, Ariel, who’d been forced to leave the Royal Capital, had realized the power gap between herself and her brothers, feeling a deep sense of frustration at her powerlessness.
Helping Ariel regain her confidence and ignite the flas of hope was naturally the first step for Leo Ray to support her rise to the throne.
In the end, the current Ariel was like a piece of unpolished jade.
What they needed to do now was to rapidly polish her into a qualified Queen of Coldfla City.
And in the process, they should bring the Coldfla Eastern Region and even the entirety of Coldfla under their command to accumulate strength to the greatest extent.
Thus, they could enhance the overall combat capabilities and equipnt standards of the entire Coldfla territory, laying a solid foundation for the territory’s developnt.
Only then could Leo Ray obtain enough capital to consider other human countries on the continent and even other races.
By doing so, they could continuously accumulate resources and be fully prepared for the terrifying catastrophe that may co at any ti.
After all, although human countries were vast, they were ultimately limited in forging and alchemy techniques, and couldn’t compare with the longer-lived races.
“In conclusion, as King West said, my talent may very well be the key to solving the great catastrophe, and even to uncovering the mysteries and truths of the Era of Blankness, as well as the real reason behind the Advent of the Ten Billion Lords.”
At this mont, Leo Ray glanced at Ariel Watson, whose eyes were flickering with emotion, and continued his thoughts, “Of course, King West also said that this would be an extrely arduous and torturous path, and perhaps what lies before is not hope, but an abyss-like despair.”
“Hence, all I can do now is to keep moving forward unwaveringly. The unknown might be fearful, but I believe that even the longest night will eventually give way to the dawn.”
With this thought, Leo Ray took a deep breath, his eyes shining brightly.
The first thing he needed to do next was to win over the proud Princess Cold Fla before him.
On the other hand, Ariel Watson was still hesitant after listening to Leo Ray’s encouragent.
She murmured softly, “But this ti, even though we’ve won a great victory, I’ve done very little. It’s mostly thanks to you.”
“That’s true.”
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Leo Ray continued, “However, if there are things I can do, there are naturally things you can do as well.”
Pausing for a mont, Leo Ray smiled and said, “My dear Her Highness the Fifth Princess, just look around you.”
“My surroundings?”
Upon hearing this and with a look of doubt, Ariel glanced around.
She noticed that the city walls around her were filled with cheering and jumping Coldfla soldiers, each of their faces overflowing with joyful smiles after their victory, their morale extrely high.
“See? If it weren’t for your inspiring words before the battle, I’m afraid the thirty thousand Coldfla soldiers in these three fortresses wouldn’t have maintained such high morale when facing a Saint Night Army many tis their number.”
