How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 274 : Hero and Destiny

"Lena, look."

Elashia pointed toward a street in the Holy Capital.

The night was now extrely deep. Soldiers who had gone two whole days without sleep to carry out their mission were camping and resting in the streets and alleys of the Holy Capital under their officers' arrangents after the aftermath had been basically completely handled.

Many citizens spontaneously brought food and blankets to give them, but were all politely declined by the soldiers...

"Look... if you hadn't done what you did back then, could such a scene exist now?"

Ileina shook her head.

"No... Shia, you can't say that..."

"Even without , the people of the Holy Kingdom would still rise up to resist the enslavent of the Blood Clans and Holy Court."

Elashia shook her head.

"No..."

She knew that destiny and general trends could determine much, and no matter how powerful heroic figures were, they couldn't solve everything alone.

But... was what destiny determined necessarily fated?

If so, then she, Elashia, didn't need to fight so hard after transmigrating to this world.

After all, this world would ultimately be destroyed under the gods' will.

But... although heroes cannot determine history, their influence on history cannot be denied.

Elashia smiled gently at Ileina:

"Undeniably, even without you, under the oppression of the Blood Clans and Holy Court, the people of the Holy Kingdom would still rise up in resistance."

"But... if you hadn't united them, do you think such a scene could really have happened?"

"Just like the Holy Kingdom before you ca here, the resistance organizations were each acting independently."

"So their resistance was ultimately insignificant to the Blood Clans and Holy Court."

"Even as ti passed and their power developed, what awaited them was ultimately the fate of being defeated one by one by the Blood Clans and Holy Court with their powerful ard forces..."

"Even if the Holy Kingdom could be liberated in the end, the people of the Holy Kingdom would inevitably pay sacrifices much greater than now..."

Grasping Ileina's small hands with both hands, Elashia said gently:

"But... you ca in the end."

"The Holy Kingdom's resistance forces united around you, bursting forth with power that was completely unimaginable before."

"Under Northern Fire's resistance, the Blood Clan forces finally withdrew from the Holy Kingdom, and the Holy Court was also forced by circumstances to ease their oppression of the Holy Kingdom's people..."

"Just like this, how many lives that would have perished were able to survive, how many families destined for destruction were preserved, how many unavoidable tragedies were changed..."

Gently embracing Ileina's sowhat trembling body, Elashia said tenderly:

"Lena... you still haven't changed..."

"You always like to do this, telling everyone that your contribution is insignificant... even you yourself think so in your heart."

"But... reality isn't like that."

"Your choice did deeply hurt ... but while hurting , countless lives also survived because of your choice..."

"So you are my hero..."

"One girl's heart, compared to saving countless lives in the Holy Kingdom, is truly insignificant."

"The past indeed couldn't accept it, but the current can completely accept all of this..."

"No! Elashia! Stop talking!"

Ileina suddenly interrupted Elashia with a voice tinged with sobbing.

Ileina's reaction was so intense that the white scarf around her neck fell to the ground.

Looking at the white scarf fallen on the ground, emotions in Ileina's heart surged out like a flood...

Why... why was Elashia always like this...

When she first heard the news of her plan to leave, she had clearly shown such agitation and anger... but when she actually left, she not only appeared extrely happy, but even worried that the Holy Kingdom's winter would be too cold, so she used her ager savings to buy the best materials and knitted such a scarf for her...

Elashia always liked to say that she always hid her own achievents, but... facing her, didn't she also always like to hide her own emotions...

And knowing all this, she still left her...

Thinking of these things, Ileina once again shafully lowered her head.

Tears fell to the ground drop by drop like a broken necklace...

"Lena... why are you still like this..."

Elashia bent down and picked up that pure white scarf.

The scarf had endured a full five years of wear and tear, and no longer looked as beautiful as when she had just finished knitting it.

But... those worn and nded places silently told of just how much the scarf's owner treasured it...

"Lena..."

Elashia gently patted the scarf she had given to Ileina five years ago, brushing off the snowflakes and dust.

She gently walked before Ileina, stood on tiptoe, and once again wrapped that pure white scarf around her.

"Look... Lena."

Elashia gently stroked the scarf around Ileina's slender neck.

"Perhaps I'm like this scarf."

"Look, although this scarf experienced so much ti and wear during our separation, it's still the sa now... still so white, still so warm..."

"I'm the sa way..."

Looking at Ileina who was crying uncontrollably before her, Elashia thought of "Elashia" from the ga.

Her darkening wasn't what she wanted, and naturally wasn't what Ileina wanted either.

But destiny was like this... Ileina's fervent hope to save her holand caused Elashia's distortion and darkening.

Since she had transmigrated here, why couldn't she let them begin that pure friendship once again?

Especially since before her was Ileina, whom she had most pitied in the ga...

Elashia gently stood on tiptoe, using her small hand to gently stroke the back of Ileina's head...

"Even though I suffered quite a bit after you left, I'm still ."

"I would still be like before, coaxing you to sleep when you have insomnia, cooking for you when you're hungry..."

Elashia had long wanted to say this to Ileina.

Ileina was quite a resilient girl, but this didn't an she didn't need her own harbor.

In front of her Northern Fire comrades, she ultimately still had to maintain her strong and reliable image.

And in the ga, how could that Ileina, whose mother and close friend had both beco enemies, find her harbor?

As a girl who was only seventeen years old, Ileina needed such a harbor where she didn't have to hide any of her vulnerabilities, and Elashia also wanted to beco her harbor...

So she absolutely wouldn't let Ileina remain imrsed in that guilt for long!

And how could she achieve this...

Looking at this girl before her who was crying uncontrollably due to guilt, Elashia showed a smile.

She had already thought of this long ago.
