Chapter 218 Felia's Choice
Chapter 218 Felia's Choice
"Hey, look, that's what the clan leader and the general were talking about...could it be that thing..." The scavenger soldier walking in front suddenly stopped and pointed his finger at the figure in the mist in the wilderness.
The other scavenger soldiers looked in the direction their teammate pointed. At this time, the dark figure turned around, and on his expressionless face, a pair of scarlet eyes flashed dangerously.
"Who are you? Tell me your name!" The leading scavenger soldier approached slowly with weapons in hand and asked loudly.
"I was sent to the border by His Highness Roy to carry out a secret mission." The clone inserted his hand into his body, took out a secret letter and threw it to the scavenger soldier.
The soldier picked up the secret letter, which was stamped with Roy's spell seal and Tracy's identity seal. The soldier did not recognize the former's seal, but they could still recognize the general's seal.
"There's no problem with the identity..." After several scavenger soldiers repeatedly confirmed the authenticity of the seal, they nodded to each other.
"Since you are His Highness Roy's men, we will not disturb you from carrying out your mission." Several scavenger soldiers saluted the clone and continued to patrol along the border.
The clone watched the soldiers leave, took out another map from his body, and began to arrange the Originium defense line according to the map.
The dark right hand pressed on the ground, and the ability to control the source stone was activated. A large number of source stone crystal clusters grew wildly more than ten meters underground. The surface of the ground with the clone as the center was like a pot of boiling water, with soil and rocks constantly rolling up.
The large-scale ground shaking lasted for half an hour, attracting the garrison soldiers to come and investigate. They thought it was a small natural disaster and were about to record it for reporting, but were stopped by the scavenger soldiers who had come before.
After finishing laying the Originium here, the clone continued to work along the area several kilometers outside the border line. In order to leave an interface for the construction of the spell altar, the clone controlled the Originium crystal cluster to break through the ground and enclose an area.
This will be the center for controlling the defense line of the entire area, and the work of the spell altar will be handed over to Tracys.
Roy's clones also appeared in the border areas in the other three directions of Kazdel.
While these four clones were working hard to complete the defense line, another clone sneaked into the Holy City of Lateran again and appeared next to Felia and Cecilia.
After the last reconnaissance, the clone was already able to accurately locate and teleport. This time it brought a package that the Sarkaz man Claire asked Roy to deliver to the Holy City.
When the clone arrived, mother Felia was playing with her daughter Cecilia. The child's innocent laughter was transmitted to Roy's ears through the clone.
"Doctor, do you like children?" Roy, who was signing a document, suddenly stopped what he was doing, looked up and asked the doctor who was sitting on the sofa and reading a book seriously.
"Ah? What did you just say?" The doctor was so focused that he didn't hear clearly what Roy just said and asked in confusion.
"I'm asking, Doctor, do you like children?"
"Why are you asking me this question all of a sudden?"
"Nothing, just curious."
"Yeah...of course I like it. I would like it even more if all the kids were as cute as Amiya."
"I will definitely..." Roy smiled at the doctor and continued to work.
The doctor was disturbed by Roy's inexplicable words and flipped through the pages of the book aimlessly.
......
"Can I call you Mr. Messenger? You have indeed come to the Holy City again." Felia protected Cecilia behind her and spoke actively.
"I'm just delivering a package to Ms. Felia on behalf of Mr. Claire." The clone took out the package from his body and handed it to Ms. Felia with both hands.
"How is he doing in Kazdel?" Felia took the package and opened it with a pair of scissors.
The first thing that caught my eye was a thick stack of money, followed by a letter.
"Mr. Claire has explained his situation in the letter. Ms. Felia can read it for herself."
Felia took out the money and put it aside, then opened the letter to check.
At this time, Cecilia, who was hiding behind her mother, carefully poked her head out and looked timidly at the clone.
Roy controlled his clone to wave to the lovely Sakota in a friendly manner, but unfortunately the clone was unable to make delicate expressions, and its scarlet eyes scared Cecilia back.
But she soon stuck her head out again to observe the clone, and it seemed that she was very interested in this strange person in front of her.
"At the suggestion of His Highness Roy, Mr. Claire decided to bring you and your daughter to live together in Kazdel. I wonder what Ms. Felia thinks of this matter."
"Mom, who is Mr. Claire? Why did you take us to a place called Kazdale?" Cecilia had never learned her father's name from her mother. She only knew that her father was different from her mother and had straight black horns on his head.
"Claire is the name of Cecilia's father. He is a Sarkaz, and Kazdel is where the Sarkaz live." Before Felia could figure out how to confess to her daughter, her clone took the lead in explaining.
"Mom, is what this weird uncle said true?" Cecilia pulled her mother Felia's sleeve and gave her a seeking-for-confirmation look.
"......Weird uncle." Roy felt helpless when he heard Cecilia calling him weird uncle.
"I'm sorry, Cecilia, forgive me for hiding the matter about your father from you. What the messenger said is true..." Felia squatted down and hugged Cecilia in her arms, saying gently.
"So, Mom, are we leaving home and going to find Dad?" Cecilia looked at her clone, then at her mother, and asked expectantly.
"..." Felia turned her head away from her daughter's expectant eyes. She was full of worries about leaving her homeland Lateran and going to the country of Sarkaz.
Cecilia's identity cannot be officially recognized in Lateran, but the hatred between the Sakota and Sarkaz races cannot be ignored. Living in Kazdel is not necessarily better than living in Lateran.
"Sorry, please give me some time to think about it." Felia finally stood up and gave her answer.
"I respect Ms. Felia's choice. Since the package has been delivered, I won't disturb you two anymore." The clone waved at the two of them, opened the space crack and left.
